Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

"This is a celestial technique left behind by the Shaoxi Pope before his ascension! The power of celestial techniques is far superior to that of martial arts. Let alone just one person at the Transformation Realm, even if there were another person, I could easily defeat him." The other party replied arrogantly.

"Oh?"

Could it be that the so-called Pure Fire Bright Venerable and Shao Xi are real people?

He then unleashed another horizontal slash.

The other party snorted coldly, twisted and pushed with his palm, and sparks flashed in his palm.

As a burst of fire swept forward, the sword energy dissipated.

"That's interesting." Xi Heng became intrigued.

"I could use this move a hundred times, but your internal energy and blood probably aren't enough to unleash even twenty strikes, right? This is the weakness of martial arts," said the Crimson Goddess.

"How can mortals, who cultivate martial arts with their physical bodies, possibly contend with the techniques of immortals?"

She pulled a blue spirit stone from her sleeve and swiped it in front of her.

A faint yellow light appeared out of thin air, transforming into raging flames that roared towards Xi Heng.

……

Chapter 86, The Sword Breaks All Laws

While fighting against the Crimson Goddess, Xi Heng suddenly remembered a passage of fine writing from the Blood Sea Great Art.

'Martial artists train their physical strength, while cultivators train the spiritual energy of heaven and earth; the two are vastly different.'

Although this sentence is from the text recorded by Zhao Qianyuan, it is correct. Magic is indeed superior to ordinary martial arts, and only martial artists who have reached the Transformation Realm can effectively resist it.

Facing the sudden roar of flames, Xi Heng raised his sword and unleashed a sword strike that rained down blood.

The sharp sword energy collided with the raging flames, the two impacts canceled each other out, and dissipated together in mid-air.

The Crimson Goddess remained unmoved, continuing to raise her fingertips and unleash fireballs.

Xi Heng shattered it with sword energy again, followed by a series of spells that came one after another without pause.

Just as the other side said, in this kind of war of attrition, magic has the advantage.

Even though she had more internal energy and blood than the average cultivator, she could only use thirty moves.

The opponent possesses spirit stones, and it's unknown how many spells they might have at their disposal.

If the person present is merely an ordinary cultivator, constantly bombarded and entangled by the enemy's spells, they will ultimately only face defeat.

However, this situation didn't matter to Xi Heng.

She herself possessed hundreds of Blood Spirit Stones, so even if she were to engage in a battle of magic against the enemy, her side would undoubtedly have the advantage.

She didn't believe that the other party also had a hundred spirit stones.

Furthermore, with her swordsmanship, she is confident that she can directly behead her enemy if she can engage in close combat.

The reason I'm using sword energy to fight is simply out of curiosity, to test the opponent's magic.

After making ten moves, Xi Heng realized that the enemy's attack patterns were not complicated, and they only used three kinds of techniques.

One method is to gather the flames into a fireball and throw it into the sky, where it crashes down like a meteor.

Secondly, long streams of intense fire erupt from the sleeves, and the flames can transform into wheel-shaped dragons in the air, possessing a slight tracking ability.

Third, they spread out large areas of flames, which rushed forward along the ground like ocean waves, attacking the enemy.

These three spells are all roughly equal in power, and can all be broken with a single sword strike, posing little threat to her.

After seeing through his opponent's tactics, Xi Heng gradually lost interest in testing his spells. He slashed his longsword across the incoming fire dragon and thrust forward with a stomp of his toe.

Countless cracks appeared from the ground, and her figure transformed into a red shadow that was difficult for ordinary people to see. She quickly swept past the remaining starlight in the air and arrived in front of the enemy general in the blink of an eye.

The Crimson Goddess's gaze sharpened, and she immediately formed a finger gesture, crossing her hands.

Dozens of yellow rays appeared around him, and streaks of fire connected the rays.

The next moment, the flame lines that condensed from all directions suddenly lashed out like long whips.

As Xi Heng thrust forward, the sword energy she unleashed cleanly severed the head and neck of the horse in front of her, and the first fiery whip struck her shoulder.

The blazing flames fell on the defensive energy level, and a faint heat emanated from it.

However, the protective energy still had some effect; even the dozen or so fiery whips failed to tear her clothes.

"That's it?"

Xi Heng suddenly understood why the Black Blade Master had said that her magic was just some strange and ingenious tricks when he fought her.

Because the protective energy is enough to easily ignore a spell.

After blocking the attack, the martial artist can then close in and subdue the enemy.

Even though the opponent's fire magic attack was more powerful than the Blood Sea Grand Magic's regular spells, the result was the same.

With the horse overturned, Chen Fenghuo had no choice but to use his light-footed skill to leap to the side.

But in the next instant, the rapier arrived.

hum-

When the blade struck, there was no hissing sound of piercing flesh, nor the metallic clang of swords against each other; there was only a strange buzzing sound.

The white aura shield around the opponent's body rippled continuously, and the rapier failed to break through it, only making it appear much dimmer.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Crimson Goddess spewed out a torrent of flames from her sleeves and used the force to quickly retreat.

Xi Heng twisted his wrist, causing the sword tip to spin sharply, unleashing sword energy that pierced through the raging flames.

Before she could even consider whether the enemy's protective shield could withstand the sword strike, the other enemy cavalrymen around her simultaneously raised their right palms toward her, with a faint glow appearing in their palms.

The next instant, a chilling threat pierced my spine.

Xi Heng glanced behind her and saw more than a dozen flames rushing towards her at once.

Her eyes narrowed, and the protective energy covering her body suddenly trembled and pushed outwards.

The incoming flames could not break through the shockwave and dissipated immediately.

After breaking the fire technique with his internal energy, Xi Heng turned around and looked at the Crimson Goddess who had landed.

Before anyone knew it, the opponent had drawn a longsword with a burning blade from his waist and with a swift upward thrust, cleaved through her sword energy.

She then released the longsword, and the flaming blade, unaffected by gravity, floated in the air.

"Flying sword?" Xi Heng narrowed his eyes.

The opponent twisted their wrist and struck the hilt of the sword.

Immediately, the blade pierced the sky like an arrow released from a bow, attacking at an unavoidable speed.

Xi Heng raised her sword to try to block, but the trajectory of the burning flying sword suddenly changed in an unexpected way, and it was about to turn the target from her chest to her abdomen when it was only one meter away.

She had no choice but to continue pressing the blade down.

Clang——

Although the flying sword was ultimately blocked, it still managed to tear a gash in the protective energy shield around her abdomen.

After getting close to the enemy, her internal energy was already reduced by 20% in just a few seconds.

"Tsk."

Xi Heng realized that the guy in front of him was not like himself; he was just a self-taught mage.

She possesses flying swords, spirit stones, and various spells that combine offense and defense—clearly, she has inherited a complete set of skills.

Although I don't know if it was taught by a celestial master or obtained something left behind by a celestial being, it was definitely much more orthodox than my own.

After deflecting the flying sword, Xi Heng did not continue the pursuit, but instead asked directly:

"Have you already embarked on the path to immortality, cultivating Qi and practicing immortality?"

The Crimson Goddess twirled her sword finger, the flying sword swirling in the air before aiming at Xi Heng again.

With her other hand, she made another finger gesture, adding a touch of color to the thin white protective aura around her.

"The spirit of heaven and earth is nowhere to be found here, how can you talk about cultivating qi?" The other party scoffed, pressing down with his sword finger again, and the flying sword attacked.

Xi Heng raised his sword to block, but the opponent's flying sword veered off course.

But how could he be fooled by the same move twice? He had already anticipated this action and used his elbow and wrist to deflect it at the same time.

"You say this place won't work, but does it work somewhere else?" Xi Heng narrowed his eyes.

During the conversation, the Crimson Goddess stopped pointing her sword and halted her attack.

"Aren't you the Heavenly Demon of the Great Dark Heaven? How come you don't know?" she asked, frowning.

"I've lost my memory."

Xi Heng made up a random excuse to get away with it.

"Your Great Dark Heaven and the Pure Fire Venerable exist in the same realm."

The other party said:

"Legend has it that the land is on the other side of Chonghai. As long as you build a large enough ship to cross Chonghai and reach that place where spiritual energy is abundant, you can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and cultivate immortality."

"You demon, you came from that realm, didn't you?" The Crimson Goddess seemed to be hoping she would recall something.

"is it?"

Xi Heng isn't really a demon, so how could he possibly know such things?

"Never mind, it seems you don't know anything either." The other party shook his head: "I originally thought that as a dark demon, you should know the location of that immortal realm, and I even thought of capturing you alive to take you to the sea to guide you, but now it seems there is no need for that."

Xi Heng twitched the corner of his mouth.

She, too, assumed the other party knew the location of the Immortal Realm.

It turned out that even the Crimson Goddess didn't know the exact location. She only knew of a legend about a fairyland that required crossing the Chonghai Sea, but not its specific location, and was even thinking of asking her for help.

But legends are just legends; whether that place actually exists, or even if it still exists now, is still uncertain.

"Catch the sword!"

The Crimson Goddess had nothing more to say, and the blazing flying sword once again streaked across the sky like a meteor.

Xi Heng sensed a hint of killing intent, immediately activated his Mind as Still as Water, and quickly captured the trajectory and details of the flying sword's attack, deflecting it with his own sword.

The flying sword struck again a moment later, its trajectory elusive and unpredictable, giving her the illusion that she was facing a swordsman whose swordsmanship was far beyond the ordinary.

After several clangs, the powerful flying sword showed no signs of weakening.

Seeing the flying sword thrust again, and a sudden fire dragon roaring towards him from the side, Xi Heng used his sword heart to unleash another Blood Sea Crossing technique on the flying sword.

After a few moves, the sword's power seemed to take effect, and the burning flying sword paused in mid-air for a moment.

The Crimson Goddess was startled and tried to retract her sword finger, but the flying sword seemed to suddenly experience a significant delay and became extremely difficult to control.

"So sword heart can affect flying swords..." Xi Heng pondered for a moment, then immediately shifted his target, pointing the tip of his sword at the white-robed woman beside him.

He gathered his longsword in his back hand and, in the blink of an eye, took a step forward and thrust it forward.

The sword tip, upon being propelled, pierced through the air, creating a white barrier and whipping up a powerful gust of wind, accompanied by a surging surge of energy.

"Yueyin!"

One second she was still entangled with the flying sword, the next instant the dagger was already in front of the enemy.

Chen Fenghu gritted his teeth, his fingers moving rapidly, conjuring another burst of flame that shot forward—

"Pfft!" At the same time, Xi Heng activated the blood patterns on the back of his hand, and the Blood Surge Technique rose and erupted, crashing into the surging flames.

The fire and blood collided, producing a deafening bang.

The rapier pierced through the blood and flames, unleashing a torrent of sword energy that shot straight toward the formidable enemy before it.

The opponent had no time to defend themselves and the attack struck the white mist barrier directly.

Although the shield could block two ordinary sword moves, her Echoing Sword was several times stronger than ordinary techniques.

As soon as it touched the shield, a few cracking sounds could be heard.

The white shield did not ripple violently as before; instead, it was directly pierced and broken by the sharp blade.

Without the protection of the white shield, just as the enemy was about to be pierced through the heart, his body suddenly shone with golden light.

The longsword seemed to have pierced a diamond, unable to advance even an inch further.
