Dissatisfaction

"I've found the formation's core!" Shen Sheng Tian Jun called out after a lengthy effort.

Shi Fang Tian Jun was delighted. "Please break it quickly, Big Brother."

Shen Sheng nodded and was about to break the formation and free Green Mist Heavenly Lord when he suddenly spotted the Nine Spirit Plate at its core. His whole body shuddered.

"It contains the power of Zi Wei Star, and a vast amount of star essence?" He drew in a sharp breath, his breathing turning ragged.

It wasn't that he lacked composure or was too shallow to keep his feelings hidden. The Nine Spirit Plate was simply far too important to him. If he could obtain it, he would surely perfect his Dao, take that crucial step, and reach the very pinnacle of the Gods and Demons Realm.

Gods and Demons Great Perfection was the realm every God or Demon longed for. Yet most who reached the Gods and Demons Realm, no matter how many years they endured, could only stop at Peak Late Stage, gazing up at that supreme realm with no hope of entering it.

That was why Zhu Xiao Tian Jun's expression had been so complicated when he discovered that Tianyou True Monarch had a great chance of advancing to Gods and Demons Great Perfection. He had been envious, but also bitter at his own lack of progress.

The same was true for Shen Sheng Tian Jun. He was also a veteran late-stage God or Demon, and he had been stuck at the peak of this realm for a very long time—so long that Shi Fang Tian Jun, once his junior, had caught up and reached the same level. Yet Shen Sheng still couldn't cross that chasm.

Now the opportunity was right before him. How could he give it up?
