The Furnace Spirit seemed to remember something, and its eyes grew increasingly bright:
"Mother once said, if one asks who in this world can kill gods and save spirits, it might only be a mortal who can achieve it. Could that person be you?"
She looked at Ding Ling with anticipation, excitement, and eagerness.
"..."
Ding Ling was lost for words.
He was certain.
He definitely wasn't the one the Mountain and Sea Realm was expecting to kill gods.
Perhaps it's someone else.
Ding Ling was about to speak, but the Furnace Spirit said crisply:
"It must be you, no doubt. Even Kun and terrifying figures like Nanhua Old Immortal were slain by you. As a mere mortal, killing gods in defiance—it's truly extraordinary. I imagine if Mother saw you, she would be very happy as well."
Curious by her words, Ding Ling asked:
"Is the Mountain and Sea Realm dead? Then where can spirits like you and me live?"
"There is more than one Mountain and Sea Realm."
