Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All-Chapter 487 Returning to the World

Hearing Sangdai's words, Dong Xi asked in puzzlement, "But when we first entered this place, we felt that the spiritual energy here was very abundant. Those spirit plants were better than those outside."

"Because those cultivators are all dead. After the cultivators die, the spiritual energy in their bodies will return to the world..." explained Sangdai.

Dong Xi was silent.

At the same time, she thought of another saying. It was rumored that no one had Ascended in the cultivation world for many years.

In the early years, there were still many cultivators who Ascended. At that time, the more spirit roots a cultivator had, the better.

Now, even a single Heavenly Spirit Root was unable to Ascend. Could it be because Senior Sangdai said that there was not enough spiritual energy?

"It's been so long," Sangdai continued. "The border we guarded has gone through countless changes. In the end, it wasn't taken away by the Demons. It's a worthy death."

Sangdai's smile looked very relieved. Sangdai looked at Dong Xi and said, "At that time, although I died, I had no regrets. I only regretted that I didn't have an inheritor. Now, ten thousand years have passed, and you have gone through many tests. You are very suitable for me. Now, I will teach you my life magic tool. In the future, you must take good care of it for me."

As soon as Sangdai finished speaking, a box appeared on the table.

Sangdai waved his hand and opened the box. A pagoda appeared in front of Dong Xi.

"This is the Seven Treasures Demon Subduing Pagoda," Sangdai said. "It can help you break the array and resist enemies. It can also assist in your cultivation. I'll pass this treasure to you. I only have one request that I hope you can agree to."

"Please speak, Senior," said Dong Xi.

"If the Demon race comes to snatch this item in the future and you can't guarantee that it's safe, then let this treasure perish together with the Demon race. You must never let it fall into the hands of the Demons."

Dong Xi looked at the Seven Treasures Demon Subduing Pagoda, unable to calm down for a long time.

In the end, Dong Xi nodded and said, "Junior agrees."

Sangdai solemnly placed the pagoda in Dong Xi's hand. A gratified smile appeared on Sangdai's face.

At this moment, Dong Xi realized that Sangdai's body was starting to turn transparent. She said anxiously, "Senior, what's going on?"

"It's alright," Sangdai said with a smile. "I'm just a remnant soul. I've been here for too long. It's time for it to disperse."

Demon-Subduing Pagoda in her hand.

The pagoda was emitting light, and one could tell at a glance that it Dong Xi frowned and said, "Senior..."

"Go out." Sangdai waved his hand and said, "Follow your heart and be a righteous and kind person."

The light faded away bit by bit, and the room disappeared along with it.

Dong Xi regained his senses and was already standing at the place where she started. She was still holding the Seven Treasures Demon-Subduing Pagoda in her hand.

The pagoda was emitting light, and one could tell at a glance that it was a treasure.

Dong Xi immediately put it away and looked around to see if anyone had noticed it.

An innocent man would be guilty of a crime, and Dong Xi did not want to be hunted down in the future because of this.

Dong Xi took out her communication jade slip and immediately sent a message to Tie Zhu and the others. She knew that everyone was picking spirit plants and immediately went to meet them.

Three days later, the Sangdai Secret Realm began to become unstable. Everyone in the Secret Realm was teleported out.

Dong Xi was the last to leave. She watched as everything in the Secret Realm began to collapse. In the future, the Sangdai Secret Realm would probably only be a legend in the cultivation world.

Dong Xi and the others stood by the sea, the waves soaking their shoes.

Everyone said goodbye to each other. The cultivators who had been hired also came to settle the commission with Dong Xi. Dong Xi asked these people to go to the Rainbow Store to get the money.

Everyone left happily. Only Long Wei stood calmly by Dong Xi's side, showing no intention of leaving.

"You're not leaving?" asked Dong Xi.

"If you don't leave, I'll follow you." Long Wei shook his head.

"Why are you following me?" Dong Xi asked doubtfully.

"My old man said that we must be friends with powerful people," Long Wei said righteously.

Dong Xi was thinking about how to reject him. Long Wei continued, "I'm different. I don't want to be friends. I want to directly acknowledge you as my Master."

"Are you serious?" Dong Xi asked with her eyes wide open.

"If you don't believe me, I can swear on it."

"Yes, of course I do, but I really have nothing to teach you." Dong Xi immediately said.

Long Wei said, "You can teach me just about anything, and I can learn for a long time. For example... That body tempering technique or sword technique of yours?"

Dong Xi was someone who was afraid of trouble. Although Long Wei was very sincere, Dong Xi still rejected him.

Dong Xi said, "Forget it. My cultivation hasn't gone up yet. It's not a good time to be distracted. If I accept a disciple, I'll be distracted."

What Dong Xi did not expect was that Long Wei was actually very stubborn. No matter what Dong Xi said, he would not leave and would always follow Dong Xi.

Dong Xi chased him away a few times, but there was no other way. She could only let Long Wei do as he pleased.

After handing Shangguan Yun'er back to Shangguan Patriarch, Dong Xi would leave this place.
