"Wise One, what have you discovered?" Lord Brahma keenly noticed the change in the Wise One's demeanor and immediately asked.
From his vantage point, even if he looked up to the very limit of his vision, he couldn't see Lin Yuan's back.
The other legendary lords who had endured three hundred million calamities also turned their gaze toward the Wise One.
As the first to step onto the unified white jade steps, the Wise One must have sensed something extraordinary.
"So... all this time, we've been fighting for the first to step onto the white jade steps... but that position was already taken long ago," the Wise One muttered with a self-mocking smile.
With the Wise One's temperament, if he had only been slightly ahead, he wouldn't have felt this overwhelming sense of despair.
If other legendary lords were slightly ahead of him, or if he had never defeated lords like Lord Brahma or Lord Heaven, it would only have spurred him to greater efforts.
But Lin Yuan?
Although the Wise One was now on the unified white jade steps, the distance between him and Lin Yuan was so vast it might as well be an insurmountable chasm.
No matter how much motivation or competitive spirit he had, it would be utterly crushed by such a gap.
