Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All - Chapter 486
486 A Reflection
It was like spring all year round here, and there were demon beasts and spirit plants everywhere. It seemed that it was time for the Secret Realm to show itself.
Without needing Dong Xi to say anything, the rest of the people had already scattered and started to search for treasures.
Dong Xi could see that although this place was not in the sea, the terrain was similar to the sea. It seemed that the map in the crystal palace could be used as a reference.
According to the settings of the cultivation world, the canyon was the most concentrated. If one wanted to obtain any treasures, they had to go deep into the canyon.
Dong Xi took a few steps and suddenly disappeared.
Tie Zhu was shocked. He immediately took out his communication jade slip and contacted Dong Xi, but there was no reply.
Tie Zhu repeatedly checked the place where Dong Xi had disappeared. Tie Zhu asked doubtfully, “What’s going on? Why did she suddenly disappear? There isn’t any array formation here.”
Cui Liu looked at Tie Zhu and said, “Old Tie, don’t worry, it might be an illusion.”
When Tie Zhu heard this, he nodded. “That’s right. We’ve come to this lousy place. I don’t know how many illusions there are.”
While the two of them were talking, Long Wei said, “Then… Are we still digging for spirit plants?”
Long Wei pointed, and everyone saw a fifth-grade spirit plant.
Everyone immediately quieted down. A moment later, everyone said with a firm gaze, “We have to dig!”
Tie Zhu said, “Let’s split up and dig. We’ll come back later to take a look. Perhaps Junior Brother accidentally stepped on some teleportation array and has already arrived at another place.”
“That’s right. Let’s go to other places to take a look first.”
Everyone began to split up. Tie Zhu and Cui Liu were in the sixth team, Long Wei and Qing Niao were in the first team, and Shangguan Yun’er and Yu Wei were in the same team as the hired bodyguards.
…
Dong Xi had indeed been teleported to another place, but she ahd not stepped on a teleportation array. She had been sucked into a small world.
The surroundings were dark, and Dong Xi was a little flustered.
Dong Xi used her fastest speed to pull out the Daoist robe from the ring, put on the little turtle magical treasure, and also pasted some protective talismans on it.
His movements were very skillful.
After doing everything, Dong Xi finally felt a sense of security. She took out her illumination magic tool and illuminated her surroundings.
“Anyone?” Dong Xi shouted. “Is there anyone here?”
Dong Xi frowned and shouted a few words, but no one paid any attention to her.
Dong Xi took the illumination magic tool and found herself in a room. After walking around, Dong Xi found a divine statue in the room. It was the same as the one she saw in the hall outside.
Dong Xi immediately knelt down and bowed.
Finally, as if a switch had been triggered, the forehead of the statue began to emit bursts of light.
Then, a Guangying Shadow appeared.
Dong Xi was stunned. Then, she asked in confusion, “Is this a divine manifestation?”
If her guess was correct, this Immortal was the Master of the Secret Realm.
When the Guangying Shadow heard Dong Xi’s words, he laughed.
His voice sounded very young, but it sounded a little old.
“You are very interesting, little girl.”
When Dong Xi heard this, she immediately understood that this Guangying Shadow was different from the ones she had encountered before. It could really communicate.
“Greetings, Senior,” Dong Xi said respectfully.
As soon as he bowed, Dong Xi was held up by a gentle force. The Guangying Shadow said, “Stand up.”
Dong Xi looked at the Guangying Shadow and felt that it was very familiar.
Dong Xi pondered for a long time. It was only when the Guangying Shadow was somewhat puzzled that Dong Xi finally remembered.
Wasn’t this Guangying Shadow one factions from before?
The Guangying Shadow looked at Dong Xi in shock. He said, “What’s wrong? Did you remember something?”
At this moment, Dong Xi said even more respectfully, “You… Are you Senior Sangdai?”
The light figure laughed, and the armor on its body made a noise along with the Guangying Shadow’s movements.
“You’re very smart, girl. You’ve always been a smart girl.”
Dong Xi immediately said, “I don’t deserve it, I’m just a little clever.”
“You wouldn’t be here if you hadn’t gone through the many tests set by me,” Sangdai shook his head and said. “Also, if you’re not smart, you wouldn’t have appeared here.”
Dong Xi did not say anything. Sangdai said indifferently, “This is the ancient battlefield of the great war between the Gods and Demons. Back then, I led hundreds of thousands of cultivators here to resist the attack of the Demons. Countless geniuses died here, including the Ancestors of the Fire Tribe you saw.”
When Dong Xi heard this, her expression immediately became serious. Sangdai continued, “At that time, I promised the Ancestors of the Fire Tribe that I would help them preserve their bloodline. In the end, I let them down. I never thought that the Fire Tribe would be destroyed because they were trapped in the volcano.”
When Dong Xi heard Sangdai mention the Fire Tribe, she said, “Senior, why can’t the younger generation of the Fire Tribe improve no matter how hard they cultivate?”
“No matter what, this small world is just a little realm under my control. At first, it’s full of spiritual energy, but as time goes on, the spiritual energy will be used up one day.”
