Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

Upon seeing this, the thousands of cultivators watching fell silent, and no one uttered a word.

In the distance, the black-haired girl in the cave saw this scene through the resentful flames and also felt sorry for it.

In terms of talent, this person possesses a Heavenly Spiritual Root, similar to hers, which is said to allow one to directly reach the Golden Core stage without encountering any bottlenecks.

However, he was also denied promotion and was seriously injured on the spot, his fate unknown.

Another month later

One of the Foundation Establishment Peak cultivators from Wanbaoge attempted to advance his cultivation by using Blood Feather Demon Core as the main ingredient and employing precious Pulse Protection Pills to mitigate some of the side effects. However, he was also severely injured and fell into a coma on the spot.

Upon learning this, Xi Heng shook his head and muttered to himself:

"Is this method of creating fake pills truly difficult...?"

I'm so sorry to have caused you lifelong regret.

Volume 1: Chapter 250, The Appearance of the Crimson Flame Demon

The crumbling inferno was shrouded in gloom.

The repeated failures in the attempt to save the Great Spirit Locking Array left a heavy sense of powerlessness in the hearts of the cultivators.

It wasn't just because three Foundation Establishment Peak cultivators had failed to advance, but also because each wave of zombies was becoming increasingly powerful.

The cultivators are suffering increasing losses; if more than ten died last time, several more will die in the next battle.

The number of cultivators in the Fire Hell was only a little over seven thousand.

The seemingly endless tide of ghouls, along with the ever-expanding flames of calamity, appears poised to devour their living space within a few years.

Now, as long as one climbs the city wall of Tianxi City and looks northwest, one can see that the rampant fire is approaching.

Flames swept over the hills, covered the paths, and blocked many routes.

Moreover, not only were external disasters severe, but the cultivators themselves were also in chaos.

Half of the ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators called out to open the Spirit Locking Array and leave this cultivation world that seemed hopeless no matter how you looked at it.

Qi cultivators, on the other hand, are caught in a dilemma: if they leave the spirit-locking array, all the spiritual energy in their bodies will dissipate, and they will revert to being mortals.

If you don't leave, you will die.

The sound of the spirit-locking array being opened grew louder and louder.

Finally, after another zombie attack that breached the city walls, the few remaining powerful warriors in the Fire Hell declared that they would charge into the Pure Fire Capital and attempt to temporarily quell the ever-expanding fire and zombie plague with all their might.

If that fails, even if the Pure Fire Sect has lost control of the Spirit Locking Array, they can still find loopholes in the array and ferry a dozen or so cultivators away every day.

A few days after the announcement, the Foundation Establishment Peak experts left the city in groups and headed straight for the Pure Fire Capital, which had been engulfed in flames.

……

Xi Heng was in a dark cave far from the calamity of corpse stiffness, humming a song as he activated the Qingyan Gong to boil water and make tea for himself.

The raging, violent storm outside, filled with intense resentment and destructive intent, was like an obedient pet floating under the kettle, heating up as she handled it.

Beside it, a small fox made of deep red flames looked up and spewed fire into the air, creating a barrier that projected images of the outside world like a screen.

The light controlled the kettle and teacup to move closer together, and the tea poured out smoothly.

The girl sitting in the chair glanced at the aerial images and learned about the developments in the outside world, feeling a little regretful.

"What risks are they taking to go to the Pure Fire Realm... They might encounter the awakening of the Resentful Heaven Demon Fire and all of them die if they get close."

"It would be better to follow my plan and let them try the fake pill method one by one before they die, so that I can leave some experience for advancement."

As he was talking to himself, a steaming teacup drifted over.

The girl pinched it between her fingertips, and without waiting for the heat to subside, she brought it to her lips and drank it down.

Although she said so, she was actually well aware that the problems and flaws of the fake pill-making method she had were quite serious, and no mentally sound cultivator would try it again.

Because if one fails to advance, one will either die on the spot or have one's meridians ruptured and fall into a coma. After falling into a coma, one's life force will dissipate within a month, and one will inevitably die—even if one uses expensive meridian-protecting pills along the way.

The side effects were extremely severe, unlike the pseudo-elixir method that should have made breakthroughs easier.

However, no one has yet achieved any positive effects.

"Perhaps, the person who wrote the false alchemy method in ancient times deliberately concealed a rather important link... Without this link, it is impossible to succeed no matter what."

"If we can find that piece of the puzzle and fill it in, everything will go smoothly."

"But how do we find it? We haven't found any coded messages or clues..."

As the girl pondered, a cup of tea was finished.

"Let's try going to the place where the fake pill was stored before and look for any other clues."

As for this life, she no longer held any expectations.

Three cultivators at the peak of Foundation Establishment have already died; other cultivators probably wouldn't dare to continue trying.

"After some time, I'll go out and find a pseudo-alchemy method that has been further improved by cultivators outside, and then announce it in the next life."

"What's this, a version update?"

She shook her head and smiled faintly, put the teacup in her hand aside, grabbed a porcelain bottle, took out the fasting pills, and swallowed them.

Nowadays, the fasting pills only have a strong medicinal smell, probably because the cultivators who made the fruit-flavored fasting pills died in the fire disaster.

Just as he was feeling regretful, Xi Heng suddenly sensed a distinct surge of spiritual energy coming from afar.

A large amount of spiritual energy receded outwards, only to surge back in a moment later—like the ebb and flow of the tide.

She frowned slightly and immediately used her spiritual sense to scan the surrounding area within a kilometer. She saw many wisps of spiritual light emerging in the dim light of the setting sun, rolling towards the direction of the Pure Fire Capital like waves.

The dark clouds in the sky swirled into a vortex shape, becoming increasingly dense towards the center.

Lightning flashed faintly in the clouds, and a muffled booming sound drifted over.

“Spiritual energy tides, ascension celestial phenomena…” Xi Heng noticed and muttered, “There are actually cultivators who dare to try this method.”

Furthermore, upon witnessing this celestial phenomenon, it is highly likely that the person in question is a lightning cultivator.

Lei Xiu, who was obsessed with the fake alchemy method in the Fire Hell, only recognized one person.

"The leader of the Seven Sect Alliance, huh?"

She thought that the person must have believed that he had made the most perfect preparations, and that he had found the flaws and made up for them, before he took the first step to get promoted.

"Perhaps...it really can work?"

Xi Heng hoped it would be so.

If someone can achieve the promotion, she won't need to research this or that anymore, nor will she need to die several or even dozens of times to personally experience the promotion through save-loading ability. She can simply replicate that person's method.

The young girl, filled with anticipation, raised her hand to extinguish the resentful flames in the cave, patted her sleeves, and walked towards the exit.

This time, I happened to discover the celestial phenomenon of advancement during a break from my cultivation, so I naturally had to go to the site to observe it in person.

……

The ruins of Jinghuoben were engulfed in flames, right in the middle of a sea of ​​fire.

On the altar, which had long been charred to a grayish-black color, the pure white flames had become quite rare.

The variegated flames, some reddish-yellow, some deep red, continued to erode the entire pure fire, and now they have covered 90% of it.

In about a month or two, the white flames will completely disappear, and the deep red will take over everything, slowly giving birth to the vengeful demonic fire.

At this moment, a sturdy magic array completely enveloped the Pure Fire body and the surrounding dozens of meters.

Fireworks drifted by, and a figure could be vaguely seen sitting cross-legged in the flames.

The ever-changing and turbulent celestial phenomena of advancement centered on this person, and the tidal spiritual energy also surged towards him.

His purple robes fluttered with the flames, and his figure was steady and solemn like a sculpture. Although he was surrounded by flames, not a single strand of his hair was burned.

The surrounding protective array was erected, with countless talismans and characters appearing and disappearing on the surface of the array, their patterns intricate and their forms solid.

In addition to the advanced cultivators, there are three other peak Foundation Establishment stage guardians in the protective formation: Yin Xiangsheng, the vice leader of the Pure Fire Sect; Yi Fei, the strongest Dharma Protector; and the current Pavilion Master of the Fire Prison Treasure Pavilion.

Outside the formation, thousands of zombies emerged from the ground, rushing towards the protective formation like a pack of crazed wild beasts.

Above, numerous meteors fell like shooting stars, crashing into the ruins and creating craters. When they landed on the surface of the formation, they caused continuous tremors.

Corpses that got close were killed by spells and swords, but the power of the meteorites continued unabated, and the formation clearly couldn't hold out for long.

When the spiritual energy tide reached its limit, Xi Heng finally arrived at this place.

She ignored the meteorites in the sky and the vast sea of ​​fire below, her gaze passing through the protective array, focusing only on the figure being burned by the flames, her eyes gleaming.

"This guy deliberately stepped into the Pure Fire to advance, he must have filled in the gaps in the fake alchemy method, believing that only by coming here can he succeed."

"But why wasn't this person sucked into the death zone...?"

She quickly came to the answer: "Is it because of the blessing from the pure fire?"

In his previous life, Yin Wanluan said that only those who possess the blessed body can remain inside the Pure Fire for a long time without dying.

It turns out that receiving a blessing prevents one from being sucked into the death zone.

It seems that refining a small portion of the pure fire while immersed in it as the core of a false pill is the answer reached by the leader of the Seven Sect Alliances in this world.

"I don't know if it's right or wrong..." The girl in the black robe stood quietly atop the ruins, concealing her presence, and gazed at the person in the fire in the distance.

All she had to do was bear witness.

……

The tide of spiritual energy continued to surge forward, as if all the remaining spiritual power in the gradually collapsing fire hell was converging on the protagonist in the pure fire at this moment.

A strong wind, accompanied by surging spiritual energy, blew the robes of the girl atop the ruins not far from the Pure Fire.

The sea of ​​fire surged, and the tips of the fire serpents all pressed down toward the pure fire, as if thousands of other flames were bowing down to it.

As the celestial phenomena of advancement became clearer, the spiritual energy tides swirled and gathered at the Pure Fire, and Xi Heng felt a sense of oppression settle in his heart.

It seems that something that will pose a great threat is slowly revealing itself.

A kind of covert gaze fell upon them—

Xi Heng frowned slightly. The last time she felt a similar sense of oppression was when she was facing a great grievance.

The last time was when the Wrist of the Vengeful Demon Fire grabbed it.

"This premonition..." the girl murmured softly.

The precious materials surrounding the purifying fire floated up with a flowing spiritual light, attracting clusters of multicolored flames that descended upon the figure sitting cross-legged in the center.

Various materials in the air were refined into liquid and incorporated into the spiritual light.

A moment later, the small ball of pure fire, which was the main material, spontaneously rotated into a vortex shape and slowly drifted toward the chest of the ascendant.

A spark of fire seeped into his body through his clothes, causing his face to contort in pain. He groaned as he suppressed the discomfort within his body and began to accept and integrate the flame.

The dense spiritual light from all around continued to flow in until no more spiritual blue light appeared, and the tide gradually receded.

Previously, no one had ever reached this stage.

Xi Heng saw this and his mind was filled with complex emotions.

She had hoped that someone would succeed, and that she would be gratified, but that strange sense of oppression did not dissipate in the slightest; on the contrary, it became even clearer.

Around the protective array, the corpses became increasingly violent as their advancement progressed, and the heavenly fire continued to bombard them as if it were aimed directly at a target.

The deafening roar continued, and the explosions and flames covered the formation.

A large number of corpses were scattered by the sword cultivator Yi Fei, their heads falling to the ground. The vice sect leader used the Clear Flame Technique to form a long dragon that charged and devoured them.

The defenses remain strong, and on the surface, everything seems to be moving in a positive direction.

Xi Heng used his divine sense to see through the various lights that obscured his vision, and saw that the pure fire around the leaders of the Seven Alliances was also forming a vortex shape and gradually flowing into their bodies, causing many fire cracks to appear on their bodies.

"..." At this moment, she seemed to understand what was about to happen.

Immediately afterwards, the figure in the pure fire suddenly trembled, shaking off the gray, turbid energy, while a large amount of spiritual energy surged in to replenish it.

A fake pill of pure fire emitted a yellow light through his dantian.

The other three Foundation Establishment Peak cultivators looked back and all showed a sense of relief.
