The Fate of Eternal Life

Chapter 124 Reincarnation Immortal Second and Fourth Heavens

Reincarnation is something no one can explain or understand.

Not to mention the ultimate experts, even the king of immortals cannot fathom it. Only those at the end of the road level are qualified to say something about it.

Countless people in the world seek the concept of reincarnation when they reach the end of their lives, but Ning Qingyi is not like that.

I do not seek the past, nor do I look to the future; I entrust my entire being to the present.

Therefore, the method of reincarnation seal became a method of shedding one's skin in his hands, embarking on the path of metamorphosis.

It has been said that every turn, every glance back, is a cycle of reincarnation.

Ning Qingyi, lying amidst all things in the earth, is constantly reincarnating, transcending his old body.

A decaying aura gradually began to condense in the sea of ​​life, and the wheel of life gradually stopped turning.

The Fundamental Life Spring no longer gushed forth divine power, the "Three Selves" of the Dao Palace ceased chanting scriptures, the Four Extremes Secret Realm gradually severed its connection with the outside world, and even the Sendai Secret Realm began to gradually become shrouded in dust.

This is the process by which a cultivator gradually weakens.

Ning Qingyi's thoughts were very strange at this moment. He had a peculiar perspective, and all his thinking was stagnant. He was simply recording the process of his own decline and watching himself "die".

Everything is heading towards annihilation, except for the rune on the forehead that symbolizes the Minor Destiny Technique, which remains unbroken through countless eons.

Inside the ancient tea-wood coffin of enlightenment, the Primordial Life Stone shone with silver light.

If it were in the vast world outside, this strange stone would autonomously absorb and release the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, appearing from afar as if it were surrounded by a galaxy.

But inside the coffin, it lost that opportunity and instead resonated with all things in the earth.

As decaying energy gradually emanated from Ning Qingyi's body and death energy appeared inside the coffin, the soil of all things underwent changes.

A gentle yet vibrant divine power emanated from the crystalline soil of all things, enveloping Ning Qingyi and forming a thin film that fused with her skin.

The death energy was irresistibly extracted, while boundless vitality slowly seeped in, nourishing his decaying body. In his dazed state, Ning Qingyi felt as if he had arrived in the era of the birth of all things, where heaven and earth were formed, yin and yang were in harmony, and all things were born from the combined energy. Heaven bestowed and earth transformed, and growth and decay, prosperity and extinction, constantly alternated and cycled.

……

Within the Imperial Array, after Ning Qingyi took the initiative to kill several humanoid beings of unknown origin lurking within the array, the Imperial Array began to fully revive.

As everyone expected, even with the meticulous arrangements of the Boundless Heavenly Venerable and the assistance of the natural order, this imperial formation still suffered damage over millions of years.

Even so, all the cultivators who entered, except for Huo Qizi, were annihilated within the great formation.

Huo Qizi himself was trapped in an ancient hall in a corner of the imperial formation, his expression grave. Fortunately, he possessed a replica of the ancient imperial weapon, the Qilin Staff, and his life was temporarily safe.

"Am I being too obsessed with Ning Qingyi?" This thought suddenly occurred to Huo Qizi.

Seeing the terrifying power unleashed by the rampaging imperial formation, even as the son of an ancient emperor, he couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle.

One day, two days... half a month passed, and the Imperial Array finally quieted down. The Imperial Array Patterns fell into a semi-dormant state, but it was obvious that the Star Sea was getting more and more damaged.

It even overlaps with the outside world, revealing parts of the mountains and rivers.

In the past few days, Huo Qizi had been trying to contact his sister, but no matter what methods he used, he was blocked by the great formation. Now, seeing the great formation showing signs of life, he made up his mind to go out.

The ancient palace stood amidst the sea of ​​stars, but as soon as the Fire Kirin stepped out, it transformed into a star and disappeared into the distance.

This is the Imperial Array. Entering it is like stepping into a starry sky as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, with no idea where in the universe it lies.

Fire Kirin cautiously walked forward, before which lay nothing but darkness, like the real universe, but in the distance, one could see the scenery of mountains and rivers.

He took a few more steps forward, then suddenly his expression changed drastically, and he used the Qilin Technique to move sideways.

"boom!"

Lightning erupted from the void, and a terrifying divine lightning bolt descended, instantly killing anyone below the Saint Realm who touched it; even the descendants of ancient emperors had no chance of survival.

Taking this divine lightning as an opportunity, the entire universe was revitalized. The light emanating from the distance merged into a boundless divine light that annihilated everything and blasted towards us.

The divine light was like water, yet it tore apart the void, its domineering power beyond compare.

Helpless, Huo Qizi flew into an ancient palace once more, narrowly escaping inside. But before he could even catch his breath, the ancient palace began to crack and shatter.

"This imperial formation is really about to collapse; it's even attacking the formation's base."

Fire Kirin gasped, finally making up his mind. He took out a replica of the ancient imperial weapon, the Kirin Staff, and activated it without hesitation.

"boom!"

The Qilin Staff was dazzling and crystalline, radiating an unparalleled divine might that was awe-inspiring.

Strands of blue light burst forth, dimming all the stars in the heavens. The eternal radiance illuminated the entire imperial formation, causing it to tremble.

Fire Kirin brandished the Kirin Staff, and in an instant, the universe collapsed, and the already broken Imperial Array was completely torn apart.

"The opportunity has come!"

A glint flashed in Huo Qizi's eyes. Holding a replica of the ancient imperial weapon, he rushed into the gap in the Emperor Formation's operation and broke out.

Finally, he returned to the outside of the imperial formation, where the magnificent scenery of mountains and rivers unfolded before his eyes.

But soon, he realized something was wrong: his younger sister, Huo Lin'er, was missing! Not only that, Huo Lin'er hadn't left him any messages either.

Fire Kirin's heart tightened. He could no longer worry about causing trouble for Ning Qingyi. Instead, relying on the connection in their bloodlines, he used a magical technique to search for his sister.

This ancient realm has existed for so long, who knows what kind of beings might have been born here? Perhaps it even contains a backup plan used by the Boundless Heavenly Venerable to guard the tomb.

Fortunately, Huo Lin'er herself possessed a replica of an ancient imperial weapon, so even if she encountered a major disaster, she would still have a chance to survive.

As the Fire Kirin departed, the center of this ancient realm returned to calm, with only the Imperial Array slowly collapsing.

……

Inside the ancient tea wood coffin, Ning Qingyi's transformation continues.

The earth was incredibly wondrous, and his body, buried within it, glowed with a fluorescent light, without the slightest trace of decay.

However, Ning Qingyi, having used the Samsara Seal technique, was as if he were truly in the cycle of reincarnation, losing all autonomy. Even an avatar he had specially sealed away in the outside world to protect himself inevitably disappeared.

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.

The Qilin Immortal Medicine sprouted several more leaves and was planted in the Soil of All Things. It had received an incredible stroke of luck, growing and recovering at a speed that other divine medicines could only envy. Not only that, the Qilin Immortal Medicine's spirituality was also intensifying, gradually becoming more like a true living being, occasionally nudging the soil until a corner of the coffin was exposed, and then it took root inside.

The purple unicorn immediately narrowed its eyes, as if it had secretly drunk honey, revealing an endearing expression.

However, just a few days after it took root, a strange change occurred.

The coffin lid was pushed open, and a disheveled young man rose from the coffin, shaking off all the dust from his body.

"who am I?"

The Qilin Immortal Elixir was startled; the roots that were wrapped around the coffin lid shrank back in fright and hid themselves.

The young man rose from the coffin and walked out.

He shook off the dust from his body, brushed away the long black hair that was blocking his face, revealing a handsome face with clear and pure eyes, like two divine springs.

He frowned, deep in thought, trying to remember something, but his mind was blank, and he couldn't recall anything.

"Where am I?

The young man looked at the Primordial Life Stone that had fallen from his body. Without a doubt, anyone who saw this stone would understand that it was an extraordinary treasure.

The young man accepted it, then looked up and saw the ancient lapis lazuli pagoda looming over the ancient hall, a look of confusion on his face.

He subconsciously felt that there shouldn't be such a building above him. But his instincts told him that this lapis lazuli tower had a profound connection to him.

He strolled slowly through the garden, then saw a sacred spring and couldn't resist going over to drink some. But soon, he was startled by his reflection in the water.

On his forehead, an indistinct mark appeared, and between his eyebrows, a golden symbol shimmered.

"A radiant light between his brows... an invincible golden body..." These words unconsciously surfaced in the young man's mind.

He stood up, instinctively clenching his fists tightly. His bones cracked, producing a metallic sound, and golden light enveloped his skin, making him look exceptionally sacred.

Because of the golden light, he also discovered a pattern on the palm of his left hand. It was small but very intricate, like a condensed version of the deep starry sky, with a sense of reincarnation.

"The Seal of Reincarnation... What is this... Am I reincarnating?"

The young man was shocked by the word "reincarnation". He took a step and broke through to the edge of the garden. But just as he was about to leave and enter the world outside the garden, the Primordial Azure Pagoda that was covering his head suddenly became powerful.

The deity within the tower was touched and revived, unleashing a torrent of air that filled the space and obscured everything.

Not only that, it emitted a blue and green light that continuously descended.

The young man was very cautious. Seeing this strange scene, he remained on guard and even couldn't help but throw a punch in retaliation.

"boom!"

His strength was unbelievable; he tore through the void with his physical strength alone.

But the brilliance of the ancient lapis lazuli tower slowly faded, gradually creating many illusions.

It's a picture of a person from birth, school, graduation, seeking the truth, and traversing the starry sky, which unknowingly draws young people in.

He stopped and looked at everything carefully, over and over again.

As the young man slowly closed his eyes, when he opened them again, a will that transcended heaven and earth began to awaken.

"Heaven attains oneness and becomes clear, Earth attains oneness and becomes tranquil, Man attains oneness and becomes intelligent... I am Ning Qingyi." The young man calmly called out his name, waved his hand, and the Primordial Azure Pagoda in the sky shrank continuously and flew back to his Sea of ​​Wheels.

"The method of the Reincarnation Seal is indeed profound, but I still woke up," Ning Qingyi said with emotion.

He looked inward and felt that he was now incredibly powerful. All the Dao injuries in his body had been healed. Moreover, the seven Dao springs in his Sea of ​​Wheels had become even more miraculous, with a miniature weapon floating at each spring.

Moreover, the marks on the Wheel of Life within the Sea of ​​Wheels have also diminished considerably, as if the creature had fought its way back from the brink of death.

"Sure enough, the Dao injury has been healed, and even a new fortune has been created!" Ning Qingyi was somewhat excited.

Not only were the injuries to his Dao completely healed, but his physical body also underwent a new transformation.

The invincible golden body he cultivated began with the body of an ordinary person. It required the determination to grind an iron pestle into a needle, the perseverance to wear away stone with dripping water, and the unyielding spirit of diligent practice. He endured all kinds of suffering, refining his diamond-like skin, immaculate golden bones, prajna jade marrow, Bodhidharma's spine, and Gautama's skull, manifesting the sound of jade and gold, the white hair between his eyebrows, and a ten-foot halo. Finally, he experienced the suffering of Nirvana and attained the body of an invincible golden body.

During his more than ten years of cultivation, he had already mastered the Vajra Skin, Immaculate Golden Bones, Prajna Jade Marrow, Bodhidharma Spine, and Gautama Skull Bone. He had also achieved the Jade Vibration Golden Sound and the One-Zhang Round Light. However, the white hair between his eyebrows had not yet appeared.

This realm is the path of the unity of spirit and body. It can only be achieved when the primordial spirit powerfully permeates the physical body's divine power, without any thought or desire.

Therefore, for someone as determined as him, it was always a bit lacking and required a lot of patience and effort to complete. Unexpectedly, the formation of the "Reincarnation Seal" helped him return to infancy and complete his practice.

At this point, the first volume of his Invincible Golden Body technique was complete. The next step was to repeatedly temper his physical body with the "Nirvana Mind Method" until he achieved the Emperor Body, thus completing the first volume, "Bitter Realm." Then he could cultivate the "Sweet Realm" to achieve an invincible immortal monk body.

"What a pity, I didn't have the Eighteen Ancient Buddha Songs and the Vajra Liquid, otherwise my golden body cultivation speed would have been even faster!"

Ning Qingyi showed a hint of regret.

The Eighteen Songs of the Ancient Buddha is a miraculous encounter during the enlightenment process of the Immortal Monk King in the ancient era. It is a unique skill performed by a golden Buddha bone that can help others identify their own flaws and continuously improve. It can be described as a first-class physical cultivation adventure.

Diamond Elixir is a renowned Buddhist elixir; after being cleansed by it, one can attain an indestructible body.

However, neither the former nor the latter holds any hope in this desolate post-ancient era where heaven and earth have withered.

Ning Qingyi shook his head, then looked at his own body. He let out a long roar, and the vast divine power within his body burst forth, sweeping across the entire courtyard.

"Transcending the Heavenly Tribulation!"

He escaped from the broken imperial formation by relying on the array diagram and the secret of the character "组" (group). As soon as he appeared in the world, calamity struck.

"Boom!"

When the heavenly tribulation descended, this place became a sea of ​​lightning, transforming into a world-shaking catastrophe. Endless lightning bolts struck down, and the universe and starry sky were filled with thunder and lightning. This place became a land of calamity.

Ning Qing leaped into the Heavenly Tribulation to fight the peerless imperial weapon once more!

This time, however, the situation was completely reversed. The Emperor's weapon's attack was completely neutralized by him. Not only that, even though his fully mastered Invincible Golden Body had lost a part of itself, its power increased several times over. Often, with a single killing move, an Emperor's weapon would be destroyed and dissipated.

In the end, he successfully transcended the tribulation, passing through three layers of heaven and entering the fourth step of the second level of the Sendai Heaven.

Only a year and a half later, he broke through again, and he broke through several minor realms directly, which was enough to shock people when the news got out!
"The path to severance is not far off!"

Ning Qing let out a long howl and disappeared into the distance.
