Chapter 654 - 446: The God Who Governs Ascension

"What, there’s another slot for ascension?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present was shocked!

Especially the few great gods—

They have been waiting bitterly on Earth for tens of thousands of years, just to ascend today!

Yet Lin Lang and Sunlight Qianyu came out of nowhere and snatched it away!

Although Lin Lang’s power makes their defeat unquestionable, there is still a trace of resentment in their hearts!

Now hearing that they still have a chance to ascend, how could they not be excited?!

But!

The great gods quickly calmed down, but their expressions were full of doubt:

"There is only ever one slot for ascension at a time! The current slot has been taken by that girl, if there were to be another, it would have to be thousands of years later!"

"Exactly! The Ascension Gate is a gift from the Upper Realm, not some scenic area ticket, do you think it can just be increased at will!"

"Lin Lang, you aren’t joking with us, are you?"

...

Seeing that everyone seemed unbelieving, Lin Lang was not in a hurry either.

Because even if he summons another Ascension Gate at this moment, it doesn’t benefit him, so it’s not necessary for him to do so.

However.

Seeing those old gods with disappointed looks, he couldn’t help but say another sentence:

"I can give you the opportunity. But time is limited, it’s up to you to decide whether you want it or not."

Upon hearing this.

The great gods were stunned.

Because Lin Lang sounded so confident, it made them unsure.

In theory, the matter of ascension is entirely at the whim of the Upper Realm!

How could it be influenced by a mortal on Earth?

But the problem is—

"Is Lin Lang really a mortal?"

Thinking of this, the great gods hesitated.

Because Lin Lang’s displayed strength was so unexpected, it could even be said to be beyond their understanding—

How could a person cultivate to such an extent in just a few years?

How could he suppress them, these ancient demons with over a thousand years of cultivation, so harshly?!

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes today!

No matter where they heard such things, from anyone’s mouth, they would never believe it!

Let alone!

Lin Lang even managed to pre-select the ascender candidate directly!

Even though at first, the Ascension Gate did not accept Sunlight Qianyu, somehow Lin Lang solved it!

Such methods are beyond their comprehension!

"What Lin Lang did today, if told to others, would probably sound like a fairy tale!"

"Yet it just happens to be true, witnessed by us!"

"Since he has already done so many incredible things, how do we know he can’t do this too?"

"Try it, there’s no loss anyway!"

...

The great gods exchanged using Divine Sense briefly.

In fact, their supposedly covert transmission of Divine Sense was as good as useless to Lin Lang!

If Lin Lang wanted to know what they were saying, it would be too easy, he just didn’t need to!

Because he simply didn’t care what they were thinking.

"Lin Lang... fellow Taoist."

One god stood out and bowed to Lin Lang.

Originally intended to call him "Lin Lang, young friend," but felt inappropriate at the moment.

Thus changed it to Lin Lang, fellow Taoist, a title of equality.

He tentatively asked:

"Do you really have a way to make the Ascension Gate appear again?"

Lin Lang said:

"You just need to say whether or not you want this opportunity."

"Yes, we want it!"

At this moment!

The great gods practically spoke in unison, without any hesitation!

After all!

This is their long-cherished wish!

"Alright then."

Lin Lang nodded and began to operate his Path of Ascension!

Only to see him close his eyes, and an extraordinarily mysterious aura emerged from him!
