Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

"Perhaps there are shipping routes or something..." Xi Heng was still making excuses.

Actually, it was because she had been practicing dual cultivation with Jin You and Yin Wanluan for so long that although her body was still fine, she was still feeling a bit tired mentally.

Right now, all she wants is to find a quiet place to get a good night's sleep, and after waking up, sit down cross-legged to do some more serious meditation and practice.

Once the weariness has subsided and I've regained my senses, I'll spend time with Yin Wanluan again.

"Your health isn't good enough?" Yin Wanluan chuckled for the first time today.

“I am a Golden Core cultivator, how could my body be weak?” Xi Heng shook his head and retorted, “I just want to rest for a few days, and continue after we arrive in Changping Capital and settle down in our residence.”

"How many days will it take to reach Changpingjing?" Yin Wanluan asked, turning his gaze to the vast sea of ​​clouds.

"This special airship is relatively slow; it should take about five days."

"Life is alright, but who knows if you'll get involved with other women after you arrive in Changpingjing?" Yin Wanluan sighed softly.

"No, am I that kind of person?" Xi Heng believed that he was not actually a lecher.

However, it could also be a misconception arising from the comparison with a lustful person like Yin Wanluan.

"do not you?"

“I always felt that Wan Luan was the one,” Xi Heng said, changing the subject.

Yin Wanluan saw through her thoughts and casually retorted, "I only have eyes for you, and I'll only show this attitude in front of you."

“Hmm…that’s true.” Xi Heng recalled Yin Wanluan, whom he had first met in the Fire Hell.

At that time, she truly appeared as a virtuous fairy, showing no signs of any other ill intentions.

"But in general, I don't flirt with other people," she said, trying to distance herself from the situation.

"Then, why is Jin You here?" Yin Wanluan asked softly.

The tone and attitude were simply the calmness of two friends talking about their thoughts, without any sense of questioning.

Xi Heng then followed this attitude and answered casually:

"Perhaps it's just fate? Just like how it was between you and me back then."

"Does that mean you have a destined person in every realm?"

"Who knows?" Xi Heng thought of Senior Sister Hong Miao and Yan Hongji again and teased, "Maybe there are two of them."

"Heh." Yin Wanluan asked again, "Then who was your second destined person in the Fire Hell? Chen Fenghuo?"

"She's rather special..."

The bond between Chen Fenghuo and her did not dissipate even when they were separated by an entire realm.

Although they were only two adjacent realms, Xi Heng always felt that the other party was more special than others, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what made him special.

"Anyway," the girl steered the conversation back on track, "I don't have any lewd intentions, so you can rest assured."

Yin Wanluan looked at Xi Heng for a while, and then nodded and said okay.

Then, she released her left hand that was holding her and slowly stood up: "Then we'll continue when we get to Changpingjing."

Xi Heng nodded in agreement.

Then, Yin Wanluan retreated first and returned to the small pavilion at the back of the flying boat.

The white-haired girl continued to stay outside, sipping a pot of spirit wine that hadn't been touched much, watching the sky gradually change color.

Above the clouds, all you can see is a clear blue sky.

Only a few thin white streaks remained high in the sky, suggesting that there was another layer of clouds above the clouds.

However, compared to the layered sea of ​​clouds below, the clouds above are pitifully few.

The sun slowly rotates, like a clock moving from east to west.

Xi Heng lay on the recliner, basking in the sun, feeling a warm sensation flowing through his body.

The Bai Feng bloodline seems to have an innate affinity for sunlight; on sunny days, the magical power within the body will be activated to a certain extent.

"This feels so good." Under the sun, the white-haired girl relaxed and closed her eyes.

The daylight did not disturb her rest, but soon she felt sleepy and drifted into a dream.

Perhaps it's because I've been practicing dual cultivation too much lately, and that's how I dreamt about it.

The difference is that in the dream, she was accompanied by both Jin You and Yin Wanluan, and was not alone with either of them.

A long time passed in a daze during the dream.

When I woke up and opened my eyes again, it was already midnight outside.

The view changed from a clear, cloudless sky to a moonlit, starry night.

A few stars twinkled, and the bright moon shone high without any clouds, casting its pure light around the body.

The airship continued to move, while the sky remained unchanged.

Xi Heng slowly got up and approached the ship's side. He saw the sea of ​​clouds below illuminated by the moonlight, and when he turned around, he saw his own shadow reflected in the moonlight.

Suddenly, I felt like I was in a fairy tale or a dream.

She then placed her arm on the wooden surface and leaned against the gunwale, quietly watching the tranquil night scene unfold.

After an unknown amount of time, on the far side, a golden light could be seen floating above the sea of ​​clouds, lying there flat like an island in the sea.

“Not on the shipping lanes… but other cities.” Xi Heng muttered to himself, “I wonder what these cities are like inside.”

It's only the first day of our voyage; we won't arrive at Changpingjing until the fifth day.

The golden trees encountered along the way are enough to be seen from afar with just a glance.

The golden island was left behind by the airship and soon disappeared from sight.

The girl turned her gaze back to the night view, gazing at it with a calm and peaceful mind.

After five days of rest, it was early morning again.

The clouds and mist dispersed, revealing a tall, vast, and dazzling golden light in the distance.

Xi Heng saw another divine tree, but this one was much, much taller than the others.

The height of other divine trees is at most just above the sea of ​​clouds at the middle of their canopies, thus creating the high heavens.

However, the part of the tree that extends beyond the sea of ​​clouds is not the tree crown, but rather the upper middle part of the trunk.

Based on a rough estimate from a distance, this giant tree extends upwards for another kilometer beyond the clouds before its canopy is visible.

The tree canopy also appears to be divided into several layers, with some gaps between each layer faintly visible.

"Is that what is called the highest heaven..." Xi Heng gazed at it and murmured softly.

According to Jin You's previous explanation, the current Changpingjing is no longer the structure with a clear hierarchy as it once was.

There are very few cultivators living in the highest heavens anymore; most cultivators live in cities on the ground, and the path for mortals to advance to become cultivators in the highest heavens has also been opened.

As long as one has enough talent and achieves success in Qi cultivation, even an ordinary person can become a cultivator.

Because of this passage and the fact that they live in the same city, there is less of a barrier between cultivators and mortals here—at least, it is much better than the Xiping City where mortals and cultivators used to become two different races.

"It should be a more harmonious city," she thought.

The airship is heading towards its destination.

Volume 1: Chapter 294, Divine Strategist

As Xi Heng's special vessel approached the highest heaven, a shower of golden light could be seen spreading across the sky.

The light was not dazzling, but rather gentle. Even if a mortal stared directly at the golden light source for a long time, it would not damage their pupils.

These golden rays emanated from the enormous divine tree in the center of the city. First, the trunk emitted light, and then the canopy at the top pierced through the narrow gaps in the clouds, sending down even brighter strands of golden light.

The scene resembled wide golden ribbons descending from the heavens and being handed over to the mortal world.

The erected silver-white walls reflected the golden light of the sky, and the glass on the surface of the high-rise buildings shone brightly, making the whole city bright and glorious.

Xi Heng looked down from the air in his flying boat and saw that the city was clean and tidy, the roads were smooth and well-connected, and people were moving in sections with steady steps.

The boat continued to travel on land, bearing many similarities to the various cars she remembered.

Every boat travels at a constant speed, and you can't even see anyone speeding up to overtake.

Looking down from above, the order of the mortal world within this city resembles a sophisticated and stable machine.

After staring at it for a long time, I still couldn't see anything outside of order.

She looked back at the tall buildings in all directions, but there were few novel or unique architectural styles.

The buildings in many residential areas are all very similar in style. You can only see different buildings every few streets apart. They are arranged in a square and orderly manner, like pigeon coops or breeding units in a farm. It is hard to find any personalized products.

As I gazed at it, a strange feeling inexplicably arose in my heart.

Looking further, the pedestrians on the road seemed to walk along the planned road segments as if they were machines, rarely even taking a step.

At several major intersections, people would spontaneously form a long, serpentine line and move forward slowly with a pace more orderly and disciplined than that of an army.

Xi Heng amplified his eyesight with spiritual power and could clearly see the faces and postures of the mortals below.

It is evident that many of them have similar appearances, with only slight differences in their features, as if they are using the same facial template.

The men and women walking on the ground were mostly devoid of individuality.

Furthermore, everyone had three connected, petal-shaped spiritual runes on their bodies, visible outside their clothes.

Some dots are on the back of the hand, some on the brow, or on the shoulders, neck, cheeks, and other areas.

"It looks like a robot?"

Xi Heng gazed down from a thousand meters in the air, lost in thought.

He then recalled something he had heard before—it was said that there were artificial people in Changping, whose appearance was no different from that of ordinary people.

Before coming, Jin You had mentioned this matter when introducing Changpingjing, but Xi Heng was still in a state of dual cultivation and was not paying attention, so he did not listen carefully.

Looking back now, the artificial beings they spoke of back then must be the very figures we see today.

"I just didn't expect there to be so many..."

The entire city is filled with artificial humans; perhaps the number of artificial humans in Changpingjingli will even exceed the number of real people.

As the girl pondered, the airship was about to reach its destination and began to decelerate according to the flight path settings.

In the distance, a wide airship platform gradually comes into view, and behind several tall towers is a large ground area where various special airships are moored.

The unloading area is on the side, where many people are moving around.

The flying boat slowly passed the inspection of the tower hundreds of meters high, drifting towards the docking area for ships arriving from Xiping City.

A pale golden aura rose again from the surface of the boat, revealing the secret passage and the formation.

The bow turned, and the boat drifted steadily down, pulled by the ground.

Seeing that the descent was a little slow, and estimating that it would take several minutes before they actually landed, Xi Heng turned around and went back to the platform at the back of the ship.

I stepped over the threshold, climbed the wooden steps, and gently knocked on a bedroom door.

"We've arrived," she said.

A muffled sound came from behind the door: "So fast..."

"After all, the journey only takes five days, which is much shorter than the ten or even decades it took you and I to cross the boundary back then," Xi Heng said casually.

"Let me tidy up a bit." The voice inside was faint.

Xi Heng responded with an "Mmm" and waited quietly in front of the door.

The airship descended slowly, with a faint humming sound of wind coming from all directions.

Bored, the girl extended her divine sense and looked around at the surroundings.

Since this trip was not to transport anything valuable, and Xi Heng was used to a leisurely life, he did not request any special treatment as a VIP. The boat dock only arranged a fairly ordinary welcoming service.

Although it is an ordinary place, those who come to Changpingjing from the outer city on special business are usually cultivators at the Golden Core stage or above, so the reception conditions are not bad.

A dozen or so people had already lined up outside, bringing fresh and delicious fruits, pastries, snacks, drinks, and exquisite boats to welcome guests.

When the airship came to a smooth stop above the square, Yin Wanluan rubbed her eyes, opened the door, and walked out of the room.

Upon seeing Xi Heng, she instinctively leaned against him as if she had finally found a pillar of support.
