The Human Race Compromises

Of the matter Qing Yuanzi had described, scarcely one of the four Immortal Venerables present believed it. After all, it was simply too absurd.

Breaking through to Immortal Venerable within a hundred years.

What kind of concept was that?

Throughout the countless years of history across the entire Immortal Domain, they had never heard of such a thing!

One had to know that although the Human Race was born weak, their cultivation potential still ranked among the foremost of the myriad races in the Immortal Domain. Even the most dazzling Immortal King in Human Race history...

Had taken more than four hundred years.
