The corner of Gulan Tiamat's eye twitched.
"These are all secrets. You'd best stop asking so many questions."
After saying that, he immediately changed the subject.
"You just asked me about advancing beyond Demigod?
Xiluo Utrasis.
Do you know what you're saying?
Advancing beyond Demigod?
How could that possibly be done?
Do you think becoming a God does that? No... strictly speaking, even becoming a God doesn't take you beyond Demigod. You're still at that stage.
