Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

She simply pointed to the manual on the table and continued:

"This fake alchemy technique is exactly what your Fire Hell is desperately in need of. I also made some modifications to adapt it to this world. Today, I've come to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion to trade this item for information about other realms."

The Master of Wanbao Pavilion quickly glanced at the scroll on the table, paused for a few seconds, and then asked:

"May I look through it?"

"Whatever." Xi Heng waved his hand.

Before she arrived, she deliberately left a key part of the fake alchemy method blank, so that it would be unusable without filling it in.

The Master of Wanbao Pavilion picked up the scroll and examined it carefully.

His eyes darted over the poems and inscriptions on the text, and he frowned in thought.

Nearby, the female cultivator from Wanbaoge who had left earlier returned and brought some snacks made from spiritual tea and spiritual rice.

The tea and snacks were fragrant and delicious, but Xi Heng didn't particularly like them.

She preferred her own sweet tea to the spiritual tea that cultivators served to guests.

If possible, it would be even better if we could have some cola.

Xi Heng picked up a pale green, daifuku-shaped dumpling that wasn't very sweet, took a small bite, and waited for the other person to finish looking at it.

A few minutes later, the master of Wanbaoge quickly skimmed through both files.

He rubbed his temples and said, "It is indeed a method of creating a fake elixir; there is no mistake."

“Then let’s make a deal,” Xi Heng said bluntly. “I want all the outer realm coordinates stored in your collection.”

"..." The other party sighed softly: "The Fire Hell is gradually declining, and the fake pill is indeed a way to stabilize the world. Our Wanbao Pavilion is also willing to include it, but this deal may not be possible."

"Why?" Xi Heng adopted the same calm and composed attitude he had when he was emperor.

“About four hundred years ago, a pseudo-core cultivator emerged from the Fiery Hell.” He said, “He collected many magical treasures and flying boats and sent out cultivators to search for the locations of other realms, but after using up all the magical treasures, the only answer he got was that the ancient coordinates of the outer realms were no longer valid, and there was nothing in the void except for the location recorded.”

"No coordinates?" The girl frowned slightly.

"The Heavenly Dao collapsed, spiritual energy scattered, and the outer void was thrown into chaos. The positions of all realms became uncertain, and our Myriad Treasures Pavilion's connection with the outer realms was severed." The other party shook their head.

"At this point, the only realm that is close to and connected with the Pure Fire Domain is the Chonghai Realm, where you previously resided."

Xi Heng glanced at the other person again; this person had actually figured out her background.

But it didn't matter. After saying "oh," she asked again:

"Your Wanbaoge is spread across various realms. Even if we don't know each other's coordinates, such a large organization should have a way to communicate, right?"

The other party still shook his head: "Times have changed. Many spiritual treasures that could communicate with the outside world a thousand years ago have all been interfered with and are now useless after the collapse of the heavens. Hundreds of years ago, the main pavilion could still contact our branches one-way, but now even that connection has been broken."

Xi Heng rubbed his forehead, and after a few seconds said only:

"Surely there must be some information about other outer realms?"

“A thousand years have passed, and the truth of the intelligence is unknown. In the hundred years since the collapse of the heavens, many realms have lost their power and immortals have perished. Now, a thousand years later, that intelligence is probably useless... It can only be regarded as a vague story.” The Master of Wanbao Pavilion said bluntly.

"Anyway, let me take a look at it first." Xi Heng reached out his hand.

"Very well, since you have entrusted me with the fake alchemy method to examine, in accordance with the principles of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, I can naturally acquire these as well." The other party clapped his hands, released a burst of spiritual light, and then sat down to wait quietly.

"The tenet of Wanbaoge?"

"Genuine goods at fair prices, honest and straightforward, fair and transparent transactions, witnessed by heaven and earth." The other party recited four idioms in succession.

“That’s traditional,” Xi Heng said simply.

“That’s true,” the Master of Wanbao Pavilion replied. “Many merchants have abandoned these terms, but these are the real money-makers.”

Xi Heng prepared tea for consumption.

A moment later, the female cultivator from Wanbaoge came again and placed a wooden box emitting sandalwood fragrance on the table.

The wooden box was opened, and inside, a jade slip radiating spiritual light was carefully placed on a brocade cloth.

Xi Heng cast a wisp of spiritual energy towards it, and before his eyes, spiritual light transformed into tiny characters that floated in the air.

The written records contain a wealth of information about other realms.

Most of this information is stuck thousands of years ago, and the coordinates recorded above are mostly useless.

She quickly read through them one by one. Most of them contained only a few pages of text information, while the information and intelligence from the Senluo Domain, Huming Domain, Chonghai Domain, and Tianyuan Domain were relatively detailed.

The Senluo Domain is known for its cultivation of wood magic. Within the domain lies a giant spiritual tree whose fruit can rapidly increase a cultivator's cultivation level and extend their lifespan.

The spiritual energy of this realm is stored and accumulated using the Spirit Tree as a carrier, and it is considered to be the realm least affected by the collapse of the Heavenly Dao surrounding the Fire Hell.

Xi Heng pondered, "If this realm still exists, its cultivation level will be even higher than that of the Fiery Hell."

If one can find it, one can begin to move towards the Nascent Soul stage, or even a higher realm.

She thoroughly studied the information about this world and memorized it.

In the Netherworld of the Pot, most cultivators practice earth magic and refine the earth's energy. Thousands of years ago, they jointly created a large pot to refine the earth's energy of the entire realm, and many cultivators reside within it, detached from the outside world.

When the heavens collapse, the environment inside the great pot may remain unchanged, and the hundreds of thousands of cultivators inside will continue to live as usual.

If that's true, then this Netherworld is the realm with the most surviving cultivators around the Pure Fire Realm.

Other realms, much like the Chonghai and Jinghuo realms, lacked specific methods of resistance and could only hastily erect spirit-locking arrays.

The final Tianyuan Domain was an unknown coordinate set by the Tianyuan Sect when they built a giant flying ship to escape.

The cultivators of the Fiery Hell did not know what that place was, and only named it the Heavenly Abyss.

Previously, Huoyu had also explored that unknown coordinate, but even the giant flying boat of Tianyuan Sect failed to reach it back then, and Huoyu's exploration range could not reach that direction either—mainly because the distance was too far and the spiritual energy was simply insufficient to reach it.

After examining the numerous spiritual characters displayed before him, Xi Heng pointed his finger at the three characters "Tianyuan Domain" and asked:

"The coordinates of all other surrounding boundaries have been determined and are no longer useful. Is this the only coordinate that is still unknown...?"

“That’s right,” said the Pavilion Master of Wanbaoge, “but the Fire Prison Flying Boat can’t get there.”

"Mine might work." Xi Heng didn't care about the amount of energy; if all else failed, he could just keep using a few top-grade spirit stones.

However, the authenticity of this coordinate is unknown, and it is very likely that going there would only result in finding nothing.

She thought for a moment and asked first, "How did Tianyuan Sect obtain these coordinates?"

"I don't know." The other party picked up his tea and replied, "When Tianyuan Sect had no choice but to return back then, they encountered a spacetime turbulence. The sect leader and elders died, and the source of the coordinates is now unknown."

“Hmm…” Xi Heng raised his hand and wiped away the spiritual light and characters in front of him.

She pondered for a moment, then lightly flicked her fingertips, pushing the fake pill on the table toward the other party.

"I propose a change of terms: I will exchange the fake pill technique for information about the outer void, such as methods for dealing with sudden disasters like spacetime turbulence, void beasts, and annihilation calamities, as well as legends, warnings, and other important information about the outer void... Is this acceptable?"

The Master of Wanbao Pavilion nodded and said, "That's feasible."

As soon as the other party finished speaking, Xi Heng flicked out a wisp of spiritual light from his fingertip and sent it into the fake pill scroll.

Within the scroll, the key points she had previously hidden emerged from the blank spaces.

The Master of Wanbao Pavilion immediately stood up: "The intelligence still needs to be sorted out. Please wait for half an hour."

Xi Heng picked up a cup of tea from the table and took a sip.

After the man left, she sipped her somewhat bitter tea and casually glanced around at the magnificent and bright hall.

The female nun was still waiting quietly behind the side counter.

For some reason, it reminded her of the time she used to work at the counter of Kangcaoge.

He chuckled softly, then looked over and asked, "Do you sell desserts?"

"Hmm?" The brightly dressed woman blinked her eyes, and after a while she realized what was happening. She quickly said, "You are an honored guest, there is no need to buy anything. I will go and prepare some right away."

She turned around, opened the small door behind the counter, and went in. A moment later, she took out some sweet spiritual fruits, placed them on a plate, and brought them over.

With a slight clattering sound, the porcelain basin landed on the table.

Xi Heng picked up a bright red, grape-like fruit and put it in his mouth. The sweet taste and juice filled his tongue, finally wiping away the bitterness caused by the tea.

"That's great, thank you," she said casually, and the other person breathed a sigh of relief and politely withdrew.

Time lasts.

Half an hour passed quickly, and the Master of Wanbao Pavilion returned with another wooden box.

Xi Heng picked up one of the jade tablets, glanced at it a few times, confirmed that it was the information he needed, nodded, and got up to leave.

After the transaction with Wanbaoge ended, she returned to her daily cultivation.

Not far from the peak of Foundation Establishment, Xi Heng also began preparing for the subsequent Pseudo-Core advancement.

During his free time, he would occasionally review and study the extraterrestrial information he had obtained from the Wanbaoge.

Although we didn't get the exact coordinates of the outer realm this time, we at least got a direction—the Tianyuan Domain.

Back then, the Tianyuan Sect launched a flying boat to go there, but failed to arrive due to energy problems.

Once she can solve this problem, she can determine whether the coordinates are good or bad.

"So, do I need to farm high-quality spirit stones next...? No, the thing with the most spiritual energy in the Fire Hell should be the Pure Fire."

While reading the coordinates in the cave, Xi Heng muttered to himself:

"Just like Yin Wanluan successfully sent away the Pure Fire in his previous life, we should completely control the Pure Fire and place it as an energy source in the flying boat... That should be enough."

"However, whatever we want to do, we need to reach the Pseudo-Core stage... Let's start cultivating first."

Xi Heng silently returned to the cultivation room.

Three years later, his spiritual energy was complete, enough to prepare him for the advancement to the peak of Foundation Establishment.

For some reason, the array within the array has not been established in the outside world in this lifetime.

Xi Heng guessed that perhaps Wanbaoge, as the main force in building the formation, changed its attitude because of the complete fake alchemy she sent.

However, these kinds of external affairs are irrelevant to her cultivation, so there's no need for her to worry about them.

After his spiritual energy reached its peak, Xi Heng continued to refine it for another year and a half, preparing for a breakthrough.

Eight years into the save file, in the cultivation room.

The spiritual light formed transparent ribbons that slowly flowed around Xi Heng.

Her hair was pulled lightly, and her white robe fluttered slightly.

A wisp of spiritual light seeps into the skin and flows through the meridians to the abdomen.

The spiritual energy circulated within the dantian, and the vortex of spiritual energy transformed into a more compact energy mass.

Although it is still fluctuating, from an internal perspective, it is already close to the 'Dan form'.

The viscous, deep spiritual light rippled slightly, continuously absorbing the spiritual energy throughout the entire cave.

After a long time, it eventually reaches its limit and stops absorbing from the outside world.

Xi Heng remained motionless like a sculpture, sitting cross-legged for more than ten days.

Once her spiritual light had stabilized completely, she opened her eyes with trembling eyelashes and slowly exhaled.

"Breakthrough."

She has now reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, and before advancing to the next realm, the total amount of spiritual energy in her body can hardly increase by even a fraction.

……

Volume 1: Chapter 256, Success in Obtaining the Fake Elixir

Eight years have passed since I started reloading my save file.

In a cave on the edge of the Ishigaya district, Xi Heng, who had been sitting cross-legged like a statue for several years, finally got up.

Although one can maintain a single posture for a long time, the body does not become stiff due to the nourishment and flow of spiritual energy, and the movements remain smooth and natural.

Another breakthrough and promotion brought a significant boost, making me feel lighter and more agile.

Xi Heng gently clenched his fist, leaned against the wooden wall to the side, and patted it.

The palm is laid flat in the air, producing a soft thud.

Immediately afterwards, a loud cracking sound came from the stone wall behind the wall, indicating it was about to shatter.

After another muffled sound, the once smooth stone turned into countless fragments, vibrating with a dense, rustling sound.

Xi Heng nodded, satisfied that a casual strike had such an effect.
