201: return

“Keep it up! I believe you can definitely succeed!”

Little Doll cheered Shen Xi on.

However, Shen Xi always felt like he was being brainwashed.

Was this guy trying to brainwash him?

Of course, even if Little Doll wasn't brainwashing Shen Xi, he still wanted to refine the broken sword.

He was filled with curiosity about the broken sword's owner.

What was their identity?

And why did they create the Tower of the Heavens?

Besides that, Shen Xi thought of many other things.

For what reason did the broken sword break?

With the strength of the broken sword's owner, could there truly be someone capable of threatening his life?

Was this the reason why the Tower of the Heavens was left with only the bottom three floors?

All sorts of doubts swirled in Shen Xi's mind, and he couldn't get answers for now.

“Alright, you should leave the Tower of the Heavens. Since you successfully passed the Tower of the Heavens' trial, after the entrance closes, the Tower of the Heavens will follow you until its entrance opens next time, then it will return.”

Little Doll reminded him again.

This was the benefit of successfully passing the Tower of the Heavens' trial.

Now, Shen Xi was considered a half-owner of the Tower of the Heavens. As long as no one else successfully cleared it, the Tower of the Heavens would stay by his side, and he would also have two opportunities to have Little Doll take action.

It was precisely because he was only considered a half-owner that the Tower of the Heavens' trials would continue. Every ten years would be a cycle. When the entrance opened, the Tower of the Heavens would automatically leave Shen Xi's side to conduct trials. Only when the entrance closed and it was confirmed that no other challenger had passed would it return to Shen Xi's side.

“I understand!”

With that, Shen Xi was teleported out of the Tower of the Heavens.

“Oh, by the way, successfully passing the Tower of the Heavens also comes with an additional reward!”

Just as Shen Xi's figure completely vanished, Little Doll spoke again.

Immediately after, a passage of text appeared out of thin air in Shen Xi's mind.

This text was not Martial Arts; it was merely a piece of cultivation insights.

It recorded various setbacks and difficulties a Martial Artist would encounter on their path, as well as the changes in the author's mindset when facing these situations, and so on.

Shen Xi was overjoyed.

This piece of cultivation insights was not Martial Arts, yet it was infinitely more precious than Martial Arts.

Just the first few sentences allowed Shen Xi to be 100% certain that the author of this cultivation insights was at least at the Martial Dao Five Realms level.

The cultivation insights summarized by such a powerful expert were like a priceless treasure to Shen Xi; it could help him avoid many detours.

“Thank you!”

Leaving this sentence, Shen Xi completely disappeared.

When he opened his eyes again, he appeared outside the Tower of the Heavens.

“Shen Xi is out!”

“The first Martial Artist to successfully clear the Tower of the Heavens since the Chasing Wind Secret Realm appeared!”

“He's not even twenty yet; his future achievements are definitely limitless!”

Seeing Shen Xi, everyone couldn't help but start discussing.

As the only Martial Artist to pass the Tower of the Heavens since the Chasing Wind Secret Realm was established, Shen Xi naturally attracted countless discussions and attention.

Especially since Shen Xi was so young, still in his golden period of potential explosion, his future achievements were limitless, which naturally made everyone eager to befriend him.

As long as Shen Xi didn't die, his future achievements would at least be at the Martial Dao Five Realms. Moreover, although many people were skeptical about the data ranking recorded on the Golden Monument, they still wondered, what if Shen Xi truly surpassed Zhu Feng Ao?

Then his achievements would be even more terrifying than imagined.

Because of this, even though many people were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred towards Shen Xi.

They still chose to extend an olive branch to Shen Xi, at least to avoid leaving a bad impression.

As for these flattering and complimentary words, there was no loss anyway, and it could leave a good impression, so why not!

Shen Xi scanned his surroundings, looking at the flattering and complimentary smiles of the many Martial Artists, his heart as clear as a mirror.

He had already guessed the intentions of these people.

Precisely because of this, he didn't take it to heart even more.

They were just a bunch of sycophants, not worth his attention.

His gaze fell on Liu Yiyi and the other two, and only then did he reveal a brilliant smile.

“Long time no see!”

Shen Xi parted the crowd and came before the three of them.

“Shen Xi, awesome!”

Chen Fang gave a thumbs up.

This was his brother.

His brother had made history!

He was proud of him!

“Congratulations, Shen Xi!”

“Did you get any rewards?”

Liu Yiyi and Ye Zirou were also genuinely happy for Shen Xi.

At the same time, they were curious if he had received any rewards for clearing the Tower of the Heavens.

It should be known that the rewards for the Tower of the Heavens were generally distributed after the Tower of the Heavens' entrance closed, based on the different performances of the Martial Artists who participated. To receive rewards, one had to wait three days.

But Shen Xi was different; he was someone who successfully passed the trial, so perhaps he was more special and could receive other rewards!

“No, not yet! The rewards will only be distributed after the Tower of the Heavens ends!”

Shen Xi replied casually.

Everyone around him was paying attention to him. If he were to reveal that he had obtained the cultivation insights of an expert at least at the Martial Dao Five Realms level, it would definitely spread immediately.

In the Chasing Wind Secret Realm, it was naturally no big deal.

But once he left the Chasing Wind Secret Realm, would those outside Secluded Factions make a move?

The answer was definitely yes!

Cultivation insights of this level, even for experts at the Martial Dao Five Realms, were of some help, and the stronger the expert who left the insights, the better the effect.

Shen Xi, merely possessing this piece of cultivation insights, was like a mobile golden mountain.

Moreover, he had no background and no strength; he was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. How could those Secluded Factions miss this Opportunity?

Even if Shen Xi had two opportunities for Little Doll to take action, he didn't want to waste them casually.

With Little Doll's strength, annihilating a Secluded Faction was easy, so good steel should naturally be used on the edge of a blade.

“So Shen Xi didn't get any special rewards!”

“Who knows!”

“I was just wondering if Shen Xi would get any rare treasures by passing the Tower of the Heavens. Now it seems, it's not certain.”

“I think, with Shen Xi's personality, he wouldn't hide it from his companions.”

“Agreed, this guy is different from ordinary Martial Artists. For him, emotions seem more important than Opportunity.”

“Hearts are separated by bellies!”

Everyone was whispering. Some believed Shen Xi truly didn't receive any rewards, while others didn't believe what Shen Xi said.
