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."
