```"Can you help me return to my ancestors?" The Golden-Winged Roc's body trembled, sensing that Yang Ji had no intent to kill. Within the Sword Realm, it repeatedly asked, "Who are you?"
```
```
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is whether you wish to reach higher levels. This world has inexplicable restrictions, as you must know yourself, you have already attained the highest realm possible here, with no way to advance further."
```
```
"Though you can sense the bottleneck, you cannot break these shackles to reach a higher level of life. A thousand years is the limit of your lifespan, isn't it?"
```
```
Yang Ji smiled faintly and said, "Follow me, and I can take you to a vast world beyond, shattering the constraints on your lifespan, and granting you Longevity, extending your years by tens of thousands."
```
```
"You're not from this world? No wonder you seem so unfamiliar. Are you an outsider?" The Golden-Winged Roc suddenly exclaimed. It had reached the pinnacle that this world could offer and had surely explored its realms, seeking a breakthrough. It had obviously not encountered Yang Ji and others during its explorations, hence the question.
```
```
"Exactly!" Yang Ji smiled and nodded, saying, "The world outside is vast and wonderful. Following me won't insult your status or reputation."
```
```
"If I don't submit, will you kill me?" The Golden-Winged Roc abruptly looked up and asked.
```
```
"You can sense we bear no malice. You possess an ancient bloodline of the Demon Race; it would be a pity to kill you! However, if you don't serve me, you won't reach the outside world. In a few hundred years, you will all perish, which would be even more regrettable!"
```
```
Yang Ji smiled and continued, "However, should you follow me, a mere thousand years is certainly not the end of your lifespan. In the outside world, you're bound to shine brightly, and all will know the might of your ancient demonic lineage!"
```
```
"The title of Demon King suggests you do not wish to perish in such an inglorious manner. There are better options available to you!"
```
```
"However, it all depends on your own will." Yang Ji said with a smile, unexpectedly retracting the Sword Realm.
```
```
The Golden-Winged Roc's expression wavered, its decision undecided.
```
```
As a Demon King, it had its pride. Yet, looking at the young man before it, it couldn't help but sadly shake its head.
```
```
It had lost, and completely at that. It couldn't even touch the hem of his robe, while he could effortlessly slay it.
```
```
The disparity in strength was too great; it had no pride to speak of in front of him.
```
```
Perhaps it was submission to power, or perhaps the temptation of Longevity, but after merely three breaths of hesitation, the Golden-Winged Roc quickly made the biggest decision of its demonic life. It suddenly knelt down, bowing to Yang Ji: "Jin Peng is willing to follow Master."
```
```
"Good! Open your mind so that I can plant the restriction." Yang Ji could have covertly planted the Heart Gu in its mind, but instead, he straightforwardly stated his intention, both to test its sincerity and to assert his prowess, instilling awe.
```
```
Indeed, the Golden-Winged Roc's expression subtly changed, but it made no move and then relaxed its guard on its mind.
```
```
Yang Ji smiled with satisfaction and nodded, then employed the Heavenly Demon Parasitic Technique and planted the Heart Gu within its mind.
```
```
"Bai Xiang, Qing Shi, let's fight another three hundred rounds!" Not far away, the Buddha Child excitedly shouted.
```
```
Boom!
```
```
Boom!
```
```
The Buddha Child displayed his divine powers, unleashing his Divine Skills and passionately battled with Bai Xiang and Qing Shi, dominating the fight.
```
```
"Master, please ensure your subordinate does not harm my brothers," the Golden-Winged Roc said with concern upon seeing this scene. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
```
```
"Rest assured, he won't harm them. Buddha Child, come back!" Yang Ji called from afar.
```
```
The Buddha Child glanced over and seeing the pleading look from the Golden-Winged Roc towards Yang Ji, immediately understood everything and retracted his Divine Skills.
```
```
At the same time, the Golden-Winged Roc flew out and landed beside Bai Xiang and Qing Shi, who wore distressed expressions.
```
```
"Master, have you successfully subdued that little peng?" the Buddha Child flew over and asked.
```
```
"Mhm." Yang Ji nodded with a smile.
```
```
A short distance away, the Golden-Winged Roc was discussing something with Bai Xiang and Qing Shi, who couldn't help but show an abrupt change in expression, instantly looking up at Yang Ji.
```
```
Obviously, the Golden-Winged Roc was persuading them.
```
```
Taking his ease, Yang Ji was also interested in watching them.
```
```
They showed anger, then moved, then hesitant, and then looked up at Yang Ji intermittently.
```
```
Clearly, they were undergoing a great internal struggle and decision.
```
```
It was just like courtship—once you've swayed her friends, you've effectively swayed half of her heart.
```
```
Sure enough, before long, the Golden-Winged Roc led Bai Xiang and Qing Shi, both looking slightly awkward, over to Yang Ji.
```
```
Without surprise, Yang Ji unhesitatingly brought the two still somewhat "shy" Demon Kings under his command.
```
```
He then used a Great Divine Power, together with the Buddha Child, to transport the entire realm's Immortal Mountain Spirit Vein unchanged into the Mount Sea World.
```
```
Witnessing such an ability to move mountains, the three Demon Kings were incredibly shocked.
```
```
Yang Ji simply said with a smile, "You needn't be amazed. If you cultivate Divine Skills, you can achieve the same. Once back in the outside world, I will find you some Cultivation Techniques and Divine Skills of the Demon Race to fully develop your potential."
```
```
"Thank you, Master!" The three Demon Kings expressed their great joy.
```
```
"Master, in which direction shall we head now?" the three-inch Buddha Child asked while seated atop Bai Xiang's head.
```
```
"Right, you must have explored this world. Do you know of any treasure lands, any treasures?" Yang Ji pondered and then glanced at the three Demon Kings.
