Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

I have often heard about the collapse of the Heavenly Dao, but I do not know how it collapses. I only know that spiritual energy flows out and one cannot cultivate immortality without being in a spirit-locking array.

Now that I have met a Nascent Soul cultivator, I have finally learned more.

"In short," the other party concluded, "the Heavenly Dao of Time no longer exists. Knowing this is enough for you. There's no need to concern yourself with the Time element within the Spirit Fruit."

"Thank you for the explanation." Xi Heng bowed slightly.

"Hmm..." The half-dragon changed the subject: "Judging from your cultivation level, you've already reached the peak of the Golden Core stage. You're taking the Five Elements Spiritual Fruits to advance to the Nascent Soul stage. When will you do it?"

“Today.” The girl covered the back of her hand with spiritual light, revealing the golden pattern that Jin You had affixed before she left Xiping City.

This pattern is proof of promotion authority. Upon seeing it, the old man nodded, turned his head to gather golden light at his side, forming a golden humanoid figure, and said:

"Follow this figure, and you will reach the place of advancement."

After saying that, the golden light moved, while the half-dragon's true form slowly closed its vertical pupils.

Xi Heng glanced at it, then turned and followed Jin Guang, leaving the wooden hall.

After going outside, the golden figure suddenly accelerated, and she also transformed into a stream of light to catch up. Before long, they came to a new platform.

The promotion site is located on the side of the tree canopy, in the open air, directly exposed to the blazing sun, with no golden branches visible above.

The canopy of the divine tree resembles an island in the sky, and this place is the very edge of that island.

As they drew near, the fiery color transformed back into a white-haired girl who descended, revealing a vast, flat plain formed by twisted tree branches.

There were no buildings or utensils on it, only the lines between the tree branches on the ground vaguely forming the shape of a large spirit-gathering array.

"The spiritual energy here is much richer than in other places," Xi Heng mused after arriving.

Immediately afterwards, the old cultivator transmitted his voice from afar:

"This place is the center, used for promotion."

As soon as the voice fell, the golden figure leading the way suddenly dispersed and disappeared.

The girl was left standing alone in the empty space, looking around.

"Besides the spiritual energy, the aura of the divine tree itself is also more pronounced, as if some essence is brewing here, probably to increase the success rate of advancement..."

The red brocade shoes stepped onto the solid ground and slowly walked towards the center of the platform.

During this time, he took out the materials needed for the advancement from his spatial ring:

The Infant Transformation Pill assists in the condensation of the Nascent Soul, the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit replenishes the power of the Nascent Soul, the Extinction Pill helps overcome the tribulation of inner demons, other auxiliary materials, seven high-grade spirit stones, three kinds of pills that can slightly increase resistance to lightning attacks, the Star-Bearing Pill to enhance the soul, and so on...

This promotion has almost emptied Xi Heng's current savings.

Fortunately, he had the support of Jin You, the lord of the city; otherwise, it would have taken him a long time to collect so many valuable items on his own.

Xi Heng grabbed a formation plate and placed it in the center of the square.

The formation was immediately set up, providing her with the most comfortable fire-elemental environment.

Then, place the materials with relatively passive effects in the Bagua positions on all four sides, float the Five Elements Spiritual Fruits in front of you, and place the pills on your body.

Afterwards, the girl sat down cross-legged and calmed her mind for a long time.

Two days later, my physical condition was perfect, and my spirit also reached its peak during meditation.

"Right now," she said succinctly.

"Turning before the gate of the Great Dao means certain death; retreating means becoming a mortal, advancing means becoming an immortal. No doubt is allowed."

"If I cannot succeed, no one in this world can."

After reciting the mantra, his right hand transformed into a sword finger that rotated in front of him, its spiritual light as dark as ink, drawing out magical runes.

The moment the drawing was completed, Xi Heng grabbed the hair pattern and stuck it to his chest. Instantly, red and white flames burst forth, and five phoenix tail feather shapes were drawn behind him.

Each fiery feather was several times larger than a person's height, like a barrier enveloping the body.

The white phoenix bloodline was activated, causing a slight ripple in the surrounding space, as if the grass in the wind bowed to the giant tree and twisted towards the girl's location.

The spiritual energy flowed along the curvature of space, almost surging forth.

The internal meridians were stained with phoenix blood, filled with a touch of light red, and rich spiritual light flowed. This physical body's bloodline reached its limit, and the red and white flames that were the essence of it burned and boiled, extremely vigorous.

Xi Heng pushed this body to its limit, and the phoenix blood was intensified to a deep level, reaching the point where "as long as the flames do not go out, the person will not perish" for a short period of time.

Next, several kinds of spirit wood materials that had been prepared were floated over and thrown into the raging fire that was burning in the shape of feathers, and the fire was kept burning by the firewood-making technique.

The girl pinched her fingers, opened her meridians, and circulated her energy to absorb the surging spiritual energy.

The rate at which it absorbed spiritual light increased rapidly, causing the blue light to permeate its entire body and slowly rotate, forming a vortex shape.

The seven high-grade fire-attribute spirit stones around him trembled slightly, emitting a reddish spiritual light that seeped into the spiritual energy vortex, adding a few more colors.

As her meridians continued to accelerate their absorption rate, the spiritual energy surging around her almost liquefied on the outside as well.

The tide of spiritual energy unfolded, and waves surged forth from the highest heavens.

Even from thousands of meters away, cultivators in the city on the ground could still clearly feel a huge amount of spiritual energy flowing in the same direction, and could also see the golden spiritual energy emanating from the divine tree twisting into strips and crashing into the clouds above.

Many cultivators, whether they were in seclusion cultivating, relaxing and having fun, or staying in the infiltration pods of virtual games, all opened their eyes and looked up at the high places above the clouds.

On the ground, Yin Wanluan, who had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time, slightly raised her head and muttered something to herself.

On the platform in the sky, a huge amount of spiritual energy gathered around Xi Heng. Whether it was golden, red, or blue light, it all penetrated into his skin without any obstruction.

The meridians instantly refined the external spiritual energy into one's own magical power, which was then injected into the golden core in the dantian.

The golden core rippled, absorbing and condensing all external forces like a black hole, making the radiance flowing on its surface even clearer and more obvious.

At the same time, other forces that already existed within her body were also converging towards the Golden Core along with the boundless spiritual energy.

The smaller martial arts core touched the golden core and fell into it and disappeared. Death energy, eerie energy, and some resentment energy that failed to ignite also drifted in and became part of the golden core.

Xi Heng also spontaneously manipulated his sword heart and divine soul to intertwine and form a shape, gradually sending it to the location of the golden core.

The absorption of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and various other forces has caused fine lines to appear on the surface of the golden core.

The fine lines are increasing and deepening, and it seems that they will crack soon—this is a sign of the shattering of the core. Only when the core shatters can the nascent soul be formed, and not a second can be wasted.

Before that, she had already sent her spiritual power, including her soul and mind, into her golden core.

As the cracks widened, Xi Heng immediately opened his eyes, flicked his wrist, and took out a square glass elixir bottle.

The bottle was shattered by the spiritual light from the fingertip, revealing a pale purple, golden-patterned miraculous medicine—the Nascent Soul Pill.

This tiny pill is twice as valuable as the Five Elements Spirit Fruit, and its effects are immense.

Xi Heng pinched it with his fingertips and brought it to his lips.

She parted her lips slightly, and the precious Nascent Soul Pill fell into her stomach.

The cooling medicinal power immediately spread, pushed into the golden core by spiritual energy.

The medicinal power was consumed as soon as it appeared, and all the power within the girl's body was concentrated in her golden core, making it difficult for her to pay attention to anything else.

The spiritual energy surged like waves crashing against the body, washing over both the physical body and the golden core.

Space warped, flames roared, spiritual energy boiled, and meridians broke inch by inch from the outside in.

A drop of blood appeared at the corner of Xi Heng's mouth, but his body remained completely calm, without even a furrow of his brow.

All her consciousness resided within her golden core, undisturbed by any external affairs.

For a long time——

As the sun and moon revolved, a clicking sound rang out on the divine tree platform.

The cracked golden pill shattered instantly, like a glass bead falling to the ground, revealing a dazzling golden light from within.

Xi Heng's body trembled slightly, and a sense of death settled on his head.

The next second, a massive burst of chaotic power erupted from the shattered golden core, directly destroying half of the physical body.

The chaotic power flowed along the dantian and the broken meridians, ravaging the skin and muscles, biting the person like nanobots in a science fiction novel, leaving them riddled with holes.

However, flames roared up immediately afterward, engulfing his entire body.

After the flash of fire, the girl's body returned to normal, completely unharmed.

However, the power of chaos did not dissipate and continued to wreak havoc.

Life and death clashed, and through constant destruction and rebirth, this body was forged to become increasingly resilient and perfect, with every muscle and every inch of flesh being refined to a profound degree.

The meridians reappeared with greater resilience, the dantian and qi sea were regenerated, and many radiant lights emerged before Xi Heng's hazy consciousness.

Twelve colors appeared in her divine sense vision like a chaotic star map. The girl reached out to them, and the purple and white colors cast their gazes at her.

Just as Xi Heng was about to catch them, a beam of red light suddenly burst forth, shooting straight towards him—

The red light struck his chest, enveloping his entire soul.

The powerful medicinal properties of the Nascent Soul Pill drew out the red divine soul, merging it with the origin of the Golden Core, and condensing it into a small, doll-like red humanoid figure.

The red puppet stretched out its slender hand and absorbed the large and small fragments of the golden elixir to replenish its own continuous growth.

Gradually, it grew from a few inches to more than half a meter tall.

When the doll Xi Heng came to its senses, it felt as if its head was too big and its feet were too light. After tilting its head in a daze, it returned to its original form.

When the physical body slowly opened its eyes, the nascent soul had already been formed.

She held her hand up in front of her eyes and waved it lightly, unaware of any strange occurrence—when suddenly a deafening thunderclap resounded from the sky above her.

A deafening roar signaled the impending tribulation!

Volume 1: Chapter 306, Parting and Reunion

In the center of a courtyard in the central city of Changpingjing.

A blonde girl with a similar face to Xi Heng stood there, her hands clasped together as if in prayer, gazing up at the sky.

The sky remained as it always was, with layers of dark clouds obscuring the true view of the heavens.

Golden light emanated from the trunk of the divine tree in the city, shining on the clouds and the earth, making the world appear rather narrow.

If it weren't for the seemingly shifting dark clouds overhead, many mortals would probably think they were not living on the surface of the earth, but in some underground cavern.

In the oppressive atmosphere between heaven and earth, Yin Wanluan listened to the muffled thunder coming from above the clouds and clearly felt the turbulence of the spiritual energy tide.

Although the lightning was not visible, just hearing the thunder was enough to feel its overwhelming power pressing down on one's heart.

All the cultivators in the city stopped what they were doing, looked up at the approaching heavenly tribulation, and discussed who had advanced to the Nascent Soul stage this time. Judging from the momentum and the tide of spiritual energy, the tribulation seemed to be more intense than the previous ones.

Among them, some cultivators with higher cultivation levels used their spiritual sense to see through the clouds and saw thunderclouds gathering even higher up above the clouds.

The clouds above the clouds are black in color and shaped like whirlpools at sea. They are not affected by the wind and simply rotate slowly on their own.

The crown of the divine tree, above the ascension platform.

Xi Heng, who had just condensed his nascent soul, also looked up and stared at the vortex-shaped thundercloud. He felt that the central turbine was like an eye, staring intently at him with its dark, abyss-like pupil.

rumble--

A muffled sound echoed in the sky, and as the black clouds swirled, streaks of purple lightning emerged from their edges.

"Purple Lightning, is it the Seven Purple Heavenly Tribulation...?" Xi Heng narrowed his eyes, regaining his senses and preparing to deal with it.

"Although it's not the most difficult type of Nine Heavens Golden Lightning to deal with, it's still quite troublesome. However, with my preparations, I should be able to get through it. I just don't know how much essence of heaven and earth I can absorb from the lightning tribulation..."

"I don't want to think about it anymore. Even the weakest heavenly tribulation shouldn't be underestimated. Let's get through it first."

These thoughts flashed by in an instant. The girl made a few finger gestures, using raging fire to form a strong shield to block above.

At the same time, he summoned the Life-Protecting Mirror, a top-grade treasure given to him by Jin You, and made several defensive preparations to meet the first life-destroying lightning tribulation that was about to fall.

There are seven paths in the Seven Purple Heavenly Tribulations. The first path is the tribulation that directly targets the physical body's tempering.

This first step allows for the maximum use of the spiritual light shield and shield-shaped spiritual treasure.

The other six lightning tribulations often come with certain mental or spiritual attacks, including the inner demon tribulation, making them difficult to defend against accurately.

Xi Heng gathered into multiple protective shields, silently watching as countless purple lightning bolts, accompanied by muffled sounds, converged at the center of the vortex of tribulation clouds in the sky.

The lightning bolt had already twisted into a serpentine shape in the air, and a moment later it would strike straight down.

The air was heavy, and although the spiritual pressure had dissipated, the pressure from the celestial tribulation was several times stronger than that of the spiritual pressure.
