"Perfect vessel..."
Rimewind blinked, unable to follow the conversation for a moment.
Clearly, this information had already gone beyond the scope of his knowledge.
"Besides, whether one has reached the maximum level doesn't seem to have any inevitable connection to whether they can become a vessel for a god to descend into the real world, does it?"
Fireball Li wore a nostalgic expression as he gave an example:
