Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

"Before heading to other areas... let's capture a few people to conduct some experiments."

In this way, one can try to familiarize oneself with the wave patterns generated by the resentful fire, clearly distinguish them, and then make better responses.

After thinking it over, Xi Heng stepped down from the stone platform and approached the white-haired man below with a slow gait.

The boys and girls who were squatting down hurriedly retreated when they saw her approaching.

When they saw that the 'Great Bright Realm' they had imagined was actually such a devastated hellish place, they were stunned and lost all their strength, daring not to resist.

Xi Heng casually pointed to a few mortals whose faces seemed to possess some spiritual energy, and said directly:

"You come with me."

At first, no one obeyed, but when Xi Heng suddenly pulled out a blood-stained blade, some people trembled with fear and followed the order, nervously moving forward.

The girl nodded, turned back to the stone altar, and had the five mortals who had accompanied her sit cross-legged below the altar.

The sects in the Pure Fire Realm also have methods of prayer and meditation, which have many similarities to the method of gathering spirits. These pilgrims should be able to learn them quickly—at least Xi Heng hopes so.

Once everyone below was seated in anticipation, she began to speak:

"I will now teach you the methods of immortal cultivation. Although it is only an experiment, it is also an opportunity for you. If you succeed, you will have the chance to become what ordinary people call immortals."

The mortals below were in a daze, unable to speak.

"Recite the incantation as I do," Xi Heng said. "All things return to one yang, the three powers unite to create one human being. With feet firmly planted on the earth, and head bathed in the light of heaven, cultivation proceeds..."

Faced with a life-or-death threat, they dared not disobey.

Then, she explained the specific methods of cultivation:

"Practice your breathing, alternating between opening and closing, inhaling and exhaling, and rising and falling in a continuous cycle. Keep your eyes focused on your nose and your nose focused on your heart. Concentrate your mind on the dantian, let your intention move in tandem, coordinate the dantian with your palms and fingers, and work together to circulate the qi sensation within your body, allowing the qi sensation to circulate throughout the body via the meridians..."

The girl quickly finished reciting these basics and then glanced at the people below.

Most of them were completely clueless and couldn't even calm their minds while sitting cross-legged in meditation.

Only one woman with short white hair seemed to be conscious, as if she had cultivated before, skillfully circulating her Qi throughout her body.

Xi Heng narrowed his eyes, ignoring everything else and focusing only on this one person.

The sword's intent expands, striking the opponent and scanning their internal meridians as if through a veil.

This person seemed to have been exposed to some spiritual cultivation methods, and the internal energy circulation was slightly different from what Xi Heng was reciting.

But the breath itself is enough to draw in spiritual energy.

Even if it is difficult to complete the full circulation of energy within the body, the process of absorbing spiritual energy has already begun.

Soon after, the vengeful spirit should react and blacklist this person as well.

She shifted her attention, focusing most of her thoughts on the fluctuations of the yellow flames at the center of the raging inferno.

Huang Yan remained stable at this moment; if there were a waveform view, it would appear smooth and calm.

As long as Xi Heng can capture a momentary, obvious increase in the waveform, he can forcefully suppress it with his deep red resentment fire, which will likely block the information or command it sends.

As she focused her mind, the entire area fell silent.

ten minutes……

Thirty minutes...

One hour……

Half an hour later, Xi Heng, who had not relaxed his mind in the slightest, finally caught a fleeting ripple in the fire of resentment.

She immediately clenched her right hand, instantly dispelling the sudden turmoil.

After succeeding, he turned his gaze downwards and stared directly at the white-haired woman who was still cultivating, carefully observing the changes in the spiritual energy around her.

A minute later, the spiritual energy around the other party remained completely still.

Just as everything should have, it gently and steadily surrounded the person, swaying slightly with each breath... first entering through the mouth and stomach, then gradually dissipating from the limbs and bones.

As the cultivation time increased, the duration of the spiritual energy remaining in this person's body also increased slightly.

Afterwards, Xi Heng did not interrupt the experiment, but continued to carefully observe the resentful fire on the altar and the woman below, waiting for time to pass.

Another half hour passed, leaving the others puzzled.

The resentful fire rippled out again, its shape and structure exactly the same as before.

She suppressed and erased the fluctuations, but the flow of spiritual energy continued as usual.

"It seems to be tested every hour, and each time it must be blocked." Xi Heng nodded slightly: "It's not that a single block will be effective indefinitely."

After waiting another half hour, the fluctuations indeed occurred according to the pattern.

The energy was suppressed again, and remained calm and still.

Three hours passed, and the sky grew somewhat darker.

Once Xi Heng had fully become familiar with the fluctuations of this pure fire, he finally spoke, breaking the silence of the place:

"Good, let's stop."

The voice faded, but the woman below the altar remained motionless, seemingly lost in reverie.

The girl then extended a finger and used her sword heart to unleash sword energy from a distance, slashing a hideous sword mark on the plane in front of him.

The resonant sounds of tearing and shaking pulled the man back from his seemingly endless cultivation.

The other person already possessed some spiritual energy, and when they slowly opened their eyes, wisps of blue-green spiritual light appeared in their eyes.

“Tell me your name,” Xi Heng asked casually.

"This humble woman, Su Yuan, thanks the Immortal Master for imparting immortal techniques..." The other party bowed deeply and performed a grand salute.

"This can hardly be considered a magical technique; it's merely the power of breathing."

However, after hearing the other party address her as "Immortal Master" and bow, she subconsciously did want to teach him something.

So he took out a martial arts book he had written down many years ago from his inventory. It contained the three kinds of internal energy transformation techniques that the Zhao royal family possessed.

He tossed it casually, and it landed right in front of the other person.

"One cannot cultivate immortal techniques in the mortal realm. If you have the opportunity to return to the mortal world, you can cultivate martial arts. There are three types in this book for your reference." She said calmly, then waved for Su Yuan to leave.

"Thank you, Immortal Master..." She couldn't help but feel disappointed upon hearing that she couldn't cultivate immortal techniques.

Xi Heng ignored him and turned his attention back to the resentment.

Having spent so long with the inner yellow flames, she has also mastered the method of sensing some of the most basic information.

With ease, the direction and distance of the other resentful fire fragments were discerned, all of which were not far apart.

"The two flames that are furthest apart are only the distance from east to west of the capital city... Sure enough, the Spirit Locking Array is only the size of a city."

This cultivation world can hardly be described as grand.

She then understood what the 'edge zone' she had heard from Mi Jie meant.

"Perhaps only the 'Central Realm' is the true cultivation world..." After muttering to herself, she reached out to the resentful fire beside her.

As I placed my palm against the surface of the deep red flames, waves of deep red and darkness seemed to rewind, and the yellow flames on the altar were no longer enveloped.

Xi Heng looked up at the darkening sky one last time, then got up and left the starting point, heading towards the nearest other area.

As always, the roads were filled with the ruins of houses burned once, broken walls, and charred tree branches.

The repetitive scenes, reflected in the twilight, created a desolate landscape, offering no sense of being in the world of cultivation.

It makes one feel as if they are walking in the end times.

Xi Heng carried a sword as he walked, clearing away the wraith-like puppets along the way.

The zombies encountered along the way are mostly weaklings who can only unleash a few minor spells, with strength equivalent to the early stage of Qi Refining.

Occasionally, they would encounter one or two stronger individuals, but they were only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

If she only uses her longsword to fight, it will indeed take some effort to kill him.

But now, as long as the vengeful fire hits, the formidable enemy can be defeated instantly without any worries.

She didn't stop walking the whole way.

Not long after, Xi Heng defeated a zombie ghost with ordinary Foundation Establishment strength using his resentment fire, and then arrived at another town ruin.

Its appearance is exactly the same as the previous ruins.

The only difference is that there is a tall stone tablet at the entrance of this place, with four characters engraved on it: Shigufang Market.

The girl stepped inside.

Not long after entering, they saw another crimson-yellow resentful fire that they had sensed earlier, placed on a similar stone altar, connected to the spirit-locking array of this area.

After clearing away the surrounding zombies, Xi Heng stepped onto the stone altar.

Calmly reaching out, he released the flames of resentment, enveloping and corrupting it.

He then sat down cross-legged and began to try to absorb spiritual energy and cultivate qi.

"Sure enough, once I reached another area, I was no longer repelled or avoided by the spiritual energy... That blacklist won't be shared." She finally relaxed and began to cultivate while paying attention to the fluctuations of the resentful fire.

Trying to do two things at once will naturally slow down your progress in Qi cultivation.

She was already very content as long as she could cultivate.

After nearly half an hour, the yellow flames of resentment suddenly rippled, and Xi Heng immediately and forcibly extinguished them.

As she expected, the spiritual energy remained steadily surrounding her, without dissipating.

The girl smiled slightly, feeling exceptionally relaxed: "The trouble is over, now I can focus on my cultivation..."

Then, focusing his eyes on his nose and his mind on his heart, he resumed his Qi cultivation practice.

Gradually, the sky turned to night, and a silver moon hung high, illuminating the broken world.

Xi Heng manipulated the resentful fire again to erase the fluctuations, and was about to continue practicing Qi, preparing to break through to the first level of Qi Refining today.

Then they heard footsteps approaching from the side.

She looked up and saw a figure in a black cloak slowly walking towards her under the moonlight.

Seeing that the other party had vitality and its movements were not like those of a zombie, they lowered their hands and launched a surprise attack without arousing resentment.

"Who goes there?" Xi Heng asked calmly.

"A pleasure to meet you, outsider." The other person bowed and then looked up at me: "My name is Yin Wanluan, and I have come from Youxu Gate to offer my greetings."

Her voice was soft and gentle, like a babbling brook, with a touch of serene coolness that calmed the mind.

"You have mastered the power of resentment and refined it into resentful fire. You are a talent that is rare even once in a thousand years... To save the world that has now collapsed, we have a request for you."

"Of course, you will be well compensated."

The other person reached out from under the cloak, opened their hand, and a wisp of candlelight ignited in their palm.

This tiny thing has a truly pure white color, carrying a sense of encompassing all things.

Xi Heng recognized that this was the Pure Fire that had given this realm its name.

……

Volume 1: Chapter 173, Chapter 166, White Flame Prayer

As night falls, the world seems shrouded in an intangible veil of darkness, and everything takes on a hazy, dreamlike quality.

Xi Heng was in the central square of Shigu Market, sitting atop a stone altar that was burning with red and yellow flames.

Beside him, a huge, deep red flame burned brightly, but its undulating frequency and the light it emitted were noticeably slower and weaker than that of an ordinary flame, like a dim, warm light in night mode, unable to illuminate the surroundings clearly.

In contrast, below the stone altar, a wisp of white flame, the size of a candle, was held in the hands of the woman in black robes.

Compared to the raging flames around them, the light of this tiny white flame was much clearer and more conspicuous.

It was as if its appearance not only illuminated the darkness, but also caused all the darkness to flee.

The dim darkness receded, illuminating the surrounding area for dozens of meters.

Even the blind spots and corners that the light should have been unable to reach, the shadows beneath dark alleys and the ruins of houses, were also penetrated by the light.

The light emitted by the pure fire can ignore the obstruction of objects and illuminate the area behind them.

The flames are not only wondrous in this respect; gazing at them from afar brings a sense of peace and a feeling of being embraced, bringing a touch of warmth.

"Is this the reward you mentioned?" Xi Heng asked after the person in front of him finished speaking.
