Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

The spirit before her seemed stumped by her question.

The silence at this moment lasted much longer than before.

After more than ten seconds, she finally answered:

"Have."

“Even a tiny bit is enough,” Xi Heng nodded.

As long as she can embark on the path of cultivating Qi and immortality, her mental lifespan will inevitably increase gradually, just as it did when she first embarked on the path of martial arts.

Qi Refining will increase significantly, as will Foundation Establishment, and the Golden Core stage should see a dramatic increase as well.

According to the other party, achieving the Golden Core is almost impossible.

But it was only almost.

Even with only a one in 100,000 chance, Xi Heng could still learn and accumulate experience by repeatedly loading save files during his promotion process, until he reached the so-called one in 10,000 chance.

For ordinary cultivators, a single failure could severely damage their cultivation, or even lead to demonic possession and death.

But she can repeat it countless times and accumulate experience during the repetition, constantly increasing her success rate.

Just like upgrading important weapons and equipment in online games, if everyone else upgrades their equipment once, it is very likely that the level will drop or even be destroyed.

By saving her game before attempting to enhance it, she can enhance it an unlimited number of times without worrying about any consequences, and can repeat the process until she succeeds.

He chuckled inwardly, then asked an even more important question:

"Now that the Chonghai cultivation world has been shattered, where should I go if I want to find other cultivation worlds?"

The cultivation realm on the other side of the Eastern River mentioned by the Crimson Goddess is nothing more than a legend or rumor.

It would be more credible to hear this from the person in front of me, a former true cultivator.

“Since the Chonghai Realm has been destroyed, even if there are other realms in the outer regions that are still struggling to survive, you cannot go there.” But the other party then delivered some bad news.

Moreover, it doesn't sound like a lie.

"Why?" Xi Heng asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"All cultivators must rely on the power of flying boats to cross realms," the other party said.

"There were once three flying ships in the Chonghai Realm. Later, one was seized by the Blood Calamity, another was secretly stolen by the Crossing the Sea Sect and left before the Blood Sea invaded, and the third was destroyed and annihilated by the Blood Sea, turning into countless fragments and sinking to the bottom of the sea."

"There's such a restriction?" Xi Heng frowned.

She thought that all she had to do was cross the sea and that there was no need to worry about anything else.

"Without a flying boat to point and locate the location, and to traverse through layers of illusions, it is impossible to leave one's own realm."

"Are all the major realms fixed? And is there only one cultivation ground in each realm?"

"When the immortals perished, all the realms only had time to concentrate their full strength to construct a spirit-locking array within their own domains," the other party explained.

"Perhaps other powerful realms have more, but most realms only have one. At least, the Chonghai Realm is like that."

"Aren't there any other spirit-locking arrays built by individuals?"

"After the extinction of immortals, spiritual energy ceased to exist, and great chaos ensued. All solitary cultivators or smaller forces have perished in the great chaos of the past two hundred years. Even those who survived, their spirit-locking arrays in spiritually barren lands cannot withstand a thousand years." The other party's words were quite clear.

"So... I can't get out?" the girl asked seriously.

"Without flying boats, there is no hope of eternal life."

After saying that, she seemed to want to take revenge on Xi Heng and leave her with a psychological shadow.

The ethereal, azure soul gradually dissipated, its solid, exquisite face and clothing patterns becoming blurred, eventually transforming into a faint mist that drifted through the world.

"Huh? You're leaving already?"

Anyone would be somewhat angry if told that there is no hope of eternal life.

And then he disappeared...

Xi Heng felt a sense of powerlessness, as if he had raised his fist but couldn't find a target to strike.

She clearly still has many problems.

Should she reload the save and ask again? She thought.

However, there's no need to reload the save file immediately, as some of the key questions at hand have already been answered.

She wanted to travel to other realms to find the cultivation world, and it seemed that she would need a flying boat.

But she doesn't even know what a flying boat looks like.

The azure spirit then said that there were no more flying boats in this Chonghai Realm...

However, Xi Heng did not believe that what the other party said was entirely true.

After all, he was just a Foundation Establishment cultivator who had been turned into a demon, not a true immortal.

Xi Heng shook her head, turned her eyes to the side, and saw the Crimson Goddess who was just as disappointed as she was.

Anyone seeking the path to immortality who hears these words from a former cultivator will inevitably feel disheartened.

"You believe me?" she asked.

Chen Fenghuo wanted to shake his head, but in the end he could only sigh and say, "What the True Spirit said is all based on what I experienced and knew in my previous life, so I have no choice but to believe it."

"Perhaps she herself was deceived, and the information she received was not the truth."

After saying this optimistically, Xi Heng asked, "Are you going to give up this voyage just because you heard this?"

“Of course not,” Chen Fenghuo replied immediately. “Having come this far, we must finish the journey.”

"That's more like it," Xi Heng chuckled.

"Maybe what this guy is saying is all outdated truth. After so many years, the so-called illusions between the two realms may have dissipated, and we can just take a big ship to cross over."

Upon hearing this, Chen Fenghuo smiled wryly and simply said, "Then let's do as you say."

Legend has it that for immortals, a hundred years is but a blink of an eye.

While cultivators may not go to such extremes, the rules and common sense among them rarely change.

The boundary barriers imprinted in the minds of cultivators must have persisted for a long time and will not dissipate in their generation.

The word "possible" that Xi Heng used was merely a word of encouragement.

However, what she lacked was this confidence, and since the other party offered it to her, she naturally accepted it.

"Let's risk our lives then," the Crimson Goddess said solemnly.

"If one cannot attain the Great Dao, what harm is there in abandoning this life?"

Xi Heng clapped his hands: "Even if it means a hundred lifetimes of reincarnation, I will still embark on the path to immortality."

The two locked eyes, determined to convey their resolve to each other.

Chapter 95, Water Moon in a Mirror

After the so-called true spirit dissipated, no more demons attacked the island.

Due to the tension and haste of the crew, they managed to speed up the process and, in the end, were able to repair a relatively damaged vessel and send it back to sea within two hours.

A strong wind helps a ship enter the sea.

The repairman continued the repairs, using several iron chains pulled out from the foreship to drag the barely repaired sternship into the sea.

As the sea wind grew stronger, people chained the two boats together to the large ship, hoisted the sails, and tried to take it away from the beach.

No matter how strong the wind is, this large ship will at most sway its stern, which is already in the water.

It wasn't until Xi Heng had fully mastered his internal energy and returned to the beach, pushing forward with both palms, that he finally managed to slowly push the entire ship backward amidst a series of breaking wooden blocks.

The giant ship returned to the sea, drifting and swaying between the turbulent tides.

The damaged bow of the ship was taking in a lot of water, causing it to sink forward as if bowing its head.

However, for the large ship as a whole, this breach is not too big.

Although the first two cabins were filled with seawater, the compartmentalized design prevented them from sinking.

However, due to the added gravity at the front, it became even more unbalanced.

Xi Heng stepped back onto the deck and felt that the ship was rocking more than before.

If the same great storm that had struck the fleet before were to hit again, it might capsize this giant ship.

"Never mind," Xi Heng muttered to himself.

"It's already quite good that we were able to return to the sea from such a dangerous island; we shouldn't ask for too much."

"Let's continue sailing east... That's all I can do now."

Xi Heng turned his eyes and looked at the repairmen still busy on the beach in the far distance.

She pushed the large ship into the sea, away from that dangerous island, and it hung in the distance like a kite that had been released into the sky.

In this way, even if there are still demons attacking on the island, they will not threaten the main ship.

Only the shipwrights who remained on the beach continued to tremble with fear as always.

After witnessing the terror of demons, his thoughts quickly became much clearer, and the holes that were previously difficult to repair began to be filled.

Here, the ship's captain, who was in charge of the ship, finished counting the remaining supplies on the large ship and came to report.

"Your Highnesses, the food and fresh water on board are only enough for the crew for four months. If we also include the other merchant ships that are still stranded on the beach, and even if we shorten our food and clothing allowances, we can use them for half a year if we don't encounter any major disasters along the way."

"Six months?" Xi Heng turned his gaze to the Crimson Goddess beside him, who was watching the sea with him, and casually asked, "Do you think six months is enough time for the two of us to cross the sea?"

"Hopefully it's feasible." Chen Fenghuo wasn't sure.

"This Chonghai truly lives up to the records, stretching for countless miles..." The girl murmured to herself, her hands resting on the ship's railing.

……

Five days later, the fleet did not set sail again, as it was still waiting for all the ships to be repaired.

Demons have appeared on the island several times during this period, but the shipwrights would immediately jump into the sea and hurriedly distance themselves from the demons as soon as they saw them.

The demons ignored them and went to the nearby forest, which had been scorched by fire, to search for and devour the charred corpses.

The demon had an enormous appetite; it could swallow an entire corpse in one go, leaving behind pale, white bones scattered on the ground.

As the number of corpses around that can avert disaster decreases, the shipwright's daily work efficiency increases by a level.

As if they had unleashed all their potential, in just a few days, a few dozen people managed to repair all the boats, which were then towed into the sea by larger ships.

Only one ship had some repairs that were flawed. After entering the sea, some planks broke off, and it slowly sank to the side of the small island. Only a few tilted masts emerged from the sea.

However, this only reduced the fleet's food and fresh water supply by half a month, without increasing the number of crew members.

After all, the crew had already been attacked by demons on the island, and their numbers had dwindled to 20-30%. Losing one more ship wouldn't be a big deal.

By the morning of the eighth day, the thin fog at sea had dissipated under the bright sun.

Six dilapidated ships hoisted their sails and, following the compass's direction, sailed eastward, circling far around the demon island.

The island gradually receded into the distance, disappearing from view.

Xi Heng let out a breath.

The threat finally dissipated, and she returned to a more peaceful life.

Although drifting and wandering at sea towards a destination that may not even exist, it can hardly be described as peaceful...

Having lost interest in looking at the boundless sea any longer, Xi Heng turned and returned to the cabin.

All that remained around the fleet was an endless expanse of sea and sky.

A few wisps of clouds drifted across the azure sky, and countless stars twinkled and shifted in the night.

In the days that followed, after nightfall, Xi Heng would often take a little time from his meditation and look up at the stars in the sky.

She vaguely sensed that the stars all had their own changes and combinations.

At first glance, it looked like a pile of loose sand.

But in reality, the Milky Way also has its own structure and laws, and it will slowly rotate as time goes by.

Xi Heng reached out and gently pointed to the sky, his finger lightly tracing a large triangle that enclosed many other stars, representing three of the brighter ones.
