Ding Ling decided to wait until reaching the Peak of Sword Spirit Great Perfection before returning to Jiuzhou of the Human World. After finishing the affairs of Jiuzhou, he would then set off for the Heaven-Ascending Path.
"Ding Ling, do not rashly step onto the Heaven-Ascending Path before you have absolute strength, lest you be targeted by the gods!"
This was Bai Suzhen's advice:
"I didn't want to tell you before because I was afraid you'd be too impulsive, too curious. Now I can't leave, and I don't know when I'll be able to, so I'm telling you everything.
Ding Ling, you are the hope of Jiuzhou, the legendary divine being who will help the people break through the calamity!
I believe with you here, everything will pass peacefully and smoothly..."
Bai Suzhen's words still echoed in his ears.
Ding Ling sighed deeply, held Little Zhao's hand, and returned to the Sword Mountain territory.
He waited for about two hours.
