Jiang Tang didn't want to become the second person to suffer such a fate; he had to suppress his cultivation. With just two more major levels, he could ascend, and with his rapid pace of increasing cultivation, it was possible that within one or two years, he could ascend.
But then came another problem. If he still hadn't found a channel for ascension, then he could only woefully invite a thunderstrike. He could no longer venture out under the open skies and certainly couldn't stay in the space forever.
The Saint Sect he was working so hard to establish couldn't just rise and then immediately be consumed by others.
Not even the people close to him were an exception. His dreams, his actions, he wanted to lead the entire team in ascension.
Mending the collapses in the Heavenly Realm was such a grand project that it could not be done by a single person.
Or perhaps, he could do it alone, but he didn't want to bear that immense pressure by himself.
