Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All

Chapter 471 - 471 The True Meaning of Death



471 The True Meaning of Death

The people of the Fire Tribe looked at the outside world and said excitedly.

“I’m finally out. I can finally see the outside world!”

“If possible, I still want to go back to my hometown to take a look.”

“I heard that there’s a kind of fiery red flower in my hometown that’s especially beautiful.”

Dong Xi wanted to ask where the Fire Tribe’s hometown was and if they wanted to go together.

However, as soon as Dong Xi turned around, she saw that everyone behind her was like a summer halo, disappearing with a wave of her hand.

Dong Xi was stunned. Her eyes were a little wet. They were all fine just now. Why… Did they have to be like this? It was as if a movie had come to an end.

The red faces of the Fire Tribe members were still filled with excitement. Slowly, it began to blur. The Patriarch seemed to have known everything. He smiled at Dong Xi and waved his hand, as if telling Dong Xi to continue forward.

When the Fire Tribe disappeared, only Dong Xi and the others were left on the originally lively mountain.

Long Wei was the first to say, “Umm… What’s going on?”

Everyone shook their heads. No one understood.

Yu Wei asked again, “Are the people of the Fire Tribe still alive?”

“They are,” replied Dong Xi.

A person would die three times in their life.

The first time was when there were no signs of life and one died from a biological standpoint.

The second time was a funeral. Family and friends came to attend and reminisce about the person’s past. This was the death of society.

The third time, no one would remember this person anymore. That would be the real death.

This was probably what the Fire Tribe Patriarch meant when he gave the box to Dong Xi.

The chief of the Fire Tribe tried his best to leave behind traces of the Fire Tribe from tens of thousands of years ago.

Long Wei said, “That really scared me. It’s fine as long as they’re alive. I saw that they seemed to be projections just now. Who knows? They might be living in some corner right now!”

The originally heavy atmosphere instantly relaxed a lot after hearing Long Wei’s words.

“Come, let’s go down and see if there’s still a flood and if the volcano will erupt.”

When everyone heard this, they all laughed. Only Yu Wei and a few others did not know what Dong Xi and the others were laughing about.

The snow on the volcano had already melted. After going down the mountain, he realized that the journey was not quite the same as he remembered.

Even the terrain and everything were different from what he remembered.

The only thing that had not changed… was that lake.

Dong Xi stood by the lake, looking at the small village by the lake, the fishing boats on the lake, and the girls singing songs.

Not only was Dong Xi silent, Long Wei and the others were the same.

This lake had only been dug a few days ago, and it had already grown such a big willow tree!

On the contrary, Yu Wei and the others saw the clear lake water and jumped in excitedly. Yu Wei said excitedly, “It’s so great to finally come down here! It’s been too hot in the Fire Tribe these past few days. My skin’s almost cooked. It’s finally normal now.”

Tie Zhu and the others also followed into the water. Shangguan Yun’er accompanied Dong Xi.

Dong Xi looked at Shangguan Yun’er and said, “Madam, shall we go greet the locals?”

Shangguan Yun’er nodded. At this point, no matter what Dong Xi said, Shangguan Yun’er would agree.

The two of them entered the village. Three women were working. When they saw someone coming, they were very surprised.

One of the younger women said, “A guest has arrived!”

Only then did the other two raise their heads to look at Dong Xi and Shangguan Yun’er.

Seeing that it was indeed a stranger, the three of them stood up.

Dong Xi walked over and maintained a polite distance. Dong Xi said, “Sisters, my wife and my companion passed by this place and are in need of directions, so we wanted to ask for directions.”

When the three of them heard this, they immediately laughed. The young woman said, “Where do you want to go?”

Dong Xi did not know where to go. After thinking for a moment, she said, “Do you know where the nearest city is?”

The three father and daughter laughed. A slightly older woman pointed at the gap between the two mountains and said, “Go out from there and head east. After crossing a mountain, you will see the city.”

After Dong Xi expressed her gratitude, she brought Shangguan Yun’er back to the lakeside to look for Tie Zhu and the others.

Tie Zhu and the others were all shirtless in the lake. Shangguan Yun’er turned her head in embarrassment.

Dong Xi did not even bother to look at them. She took out the map drawn by the Shangguan Patriarch before she came in from her storage ring.

Although the drawing was a little simple, at least the direction was clear.

Only then did Dong Xi discover in astonishment that the place where Shangguan Patriarch had entered back then was the lake that Dong Xi had dug out with her men?

Shangguan Patriarch entered the Secret Realm around 1,000 years ago.

1,000 years ago… Dong Xi was not even in this world yet.

Dong Xi guessed that the spacetime here was chaotic.
