Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

If robbing doesn't work, you can first use your contribution points to exchange for the Divine Transformation Technique, then reload your save and sweep through this world.
Xi Heng felt there were still quite a few solutions.
After nodding, he returned to his bedroom.
Yin Wanluan was still not there; it was unknown how long she would cultivate this time.
The white-haired girl sat on the edge of the bed, swung her legs, and after a moment, changed her mind and returned to her cultivation room.
After being away for a while, it returned to find the place had been cleaned up again, new incense sticks lit, and the spirit stones in the spirit-gathering array replenished.
Xi Heng sent out a wisp of spiritual light to activate the gathering of spiritual energy, and slowly sat down on the futon.
Close your eyes and observe your mind; inspiration will flow naturally.
With the aid of the essence of heaven and earth, one can easily achieve the most perfect state of cultivation without expending much effort.
Time passed slowly with each breath.
……
When I opened my eyes again, it was two months later.
After calming his spiritual light, he glanced at the time and silently opened the array network to check some recent news from the outside world.
Most of them were just minor news snippets that touched on the surface. Yin Wanluan's account was updated with a new painting, and then the Spirit Blood Department of Yuansu Company started promoting their latest spirit creations...
"They all seem pretty ordinary." Xi Heng casually clicked on the promotional video for the Spirit Creation Company.
Immediately, the network video transformed into a projector, illuminating the surrounding area, accompanied by a soft, human voice announcing:
"Cultivators practice diligently for immortality, often entering seclusion for years at a time. Youth fades, and their once black hair turns gray..."
Xi Heng tilted his head. This was clearly a promotional video for a spirit creation body, so why was it talking about cultivators and immortality?
"Even the longest-lived mortals live no more than a hundred years; their bodies age and decay, their bones and flesh wither and weaken," the transparent humanoid projection continued to announce.
"It has long been proven in ancient times that there are souls and spirits in the world. A soul can exist for up to five hundred years after leaving the body and absorbing spiritual energy. With the development of spiritual body creation technology, it can now replace the mortal body and store the human soul in the spiritual body, which can prolong life..."
After listening for a while, the white-haired girl felt more and more that this was not propaganda for androids.
This new generation of spirit creations seems to have surpassed the realm of spirit creation itself.
As words were spoken from the luminous projection, they became increasingly related to the concepts of lifespan and immortality.
Xi Heng gradually understood what the method he had heard during his conversation with the Nascent Soul cultivator from the Spirit Blood Temple was—the method that could further alleviate the spiritual resentment of the Divine Tree.
Since human spirits are already insufficient, all the mortals currently in the city will be used as containers to store the resentment of the divine tree.
Not only do spirit beings share this responsibility, but even mortals must use their own lives to fulfill this duty for the divine tree...
"The one who could come up with this idea must be the most demonic of demonic cultivators, right?" Xi Heng muttered to himself.
The fact that this point can be put into reality demonstrates just how critical the situation of the Changpingjing Divine Tree is.
"However, the side effects of bearing the resentment of spirits are still unclear, and this plan also has the excellent benefit of immortality for mortals..." She thought about it from the perspective of mortals, who wouldn't want to live forever?
"But for some reason, I always felt that the crisis in Changpingjing was piling up bigger and bigger. On the surface, it seemed to be going upward, but the explosives below were about to detonate."
"How about we go back to Xiping sometime?"
"But the spiritual energy concentration in Xiping City is not as high as here, so the cultivation efficiency is relatively low." She still planned to stay here.
After watching the promotional projection of the so-called "longevity plan," Xi Heng then browsed the comments below it.
The comments clearly raised questions from multiple ethical institutions, and ordinary mortals were not optimistic about the plan. The facts concerning the soul were extremely important, and the scattered incidents that had occurred to the Far-Reaching Company in the past made it difficult to trust them.
But for some reason, the number of pre-orders is quite large and continues to increase.
The aging population in Changping and Jingzhong is severe. No matter what people say, most of them live happily and would not give up their lives if there is even the slightest chance.
With the opportunity presented before them, these elderly users, who are rarely seen in the comments section of the Wide Area Network, hesitated but were even more afraid of death. Upon seeing the offer, they immediately reserved the longevity plan, fearing that they would miss out on this spot.
The girl kept swiping her finger across the comments section, muttering to herself, "The public opinion is bad, but the current pre-order sales are several times higher than the final pre-orders of the previous version... Mortals really have a lot to squeeze out."
If I were to reveal the matter of the spirits resentful within the sacred tree, it might trigger another uproar and disrupt the plans of the Spirit Blood Sect.
But what the heck.
The mortals in Changpingjing lived far better than those in the previous hell and the mortal realm of Great Zhao.
Instead of worrying about these things, it would be better to return to your own Tianzhao Empire and find ways to help your people develop further.
After searching through all the news about this matter, Xi Heng shut down the trending topics on the official website.
Returning to my profile page, I saw a notification light up and clicked to expand it.
After replying to Jin You's chat in the message interface, I saw a message from Da Ling's strange account: The number of awakened spirit creations has seen a significant increase in the past few days.
The Great Spirit explained that when the spirit beings saw promotional videos for the so-called "immortality plan" appearing on the streets, their internal logic generated the idea of humans transforming into spirit beings. They found it difficult to define whether it was a human or a spirit being, and thus began to doubt the definitions of the two concepts. As a result, a large number of spirit beings that were on the edge were activated and awakened.
"But that can't be that many..." Xi Heng looked at the number the other party had released, somewhat surprised:
"Seven thousand, what does that mean?"
In recent years, she has only taken in a mere seven hundred awakened spirit beings.
As soon as the concept advertisement for Yuansu Company's new product was released, the number of awakened beings was multiplied by ten.
It is hundreds of times more effective than the small concepts that the Great Spirit has implanted deep within the logic of the spiritual creation over the years.
“That’s right, and the numbers are scattered, thank you for your trouble,” Da Ling replied.
"Tsk, let the clone spread the white flames first, then I'll grab the awakened body back in one go." Xi Heng thought it over, then flicked his finger to create an avatar, and separated a bit of spiritual light, which existed in the unconscious avatar.
Then, a small amount of consciousness was sent, and the task was assigned.
The avatar vanished in a flash, and Xi Heng hummed a tune as he opened Jin You's messages and started chatting.
With my mind at ease, I subconsciously wondered if the resources developed by the seven hundred spirit creations within the Spirit Fire Space, such as food crops, would be sufficient for the seven thousand people who would be coming soon.
"We can send a few truckloads of fasting pills in later as well." Xi Heng nodded, then opened another chat interface and asked Da Ling:
"With over seven thousand more awakened beings added, will things settle down? Won't there be any accidents that cause injuries like before?"
“I conveyed some expectations about a paradise to them from the depths of logic, which was able to stabilize most of them, but the injury incident has already occurred. If all the media were not cooperating with Far East Company to suppress this matter, it might have already become a hot topic.”
“Then I’ll take the awakened body with me, which will at least help the company cover it up… No wonder there aren’t any high-level cultivators involved in the missing persons investigation yet.”
“After this, I’m afraid we’ll have it,” Da Ling said.
"Let's make it even more discreet from now on," Xi Heng said indifferently.
The avatars in the outer city have begun to act, walking along the roads and passing on drops of spiritual fire. After several passes, they are finally delivered to the awakened spiritual entity at the target.
At the same time, Da Ling informed the company of the team's route for handling spirit creations. With such thorough knowledge, the Nascent Soul cultivator completed his mission in less than half a day—attaching spirit fire to more than seven thousand awakened beings.
Xi Heng was in the courtyard of the central city. He walked out of the mansion and stretched his right hand out towards the sky.
Her long sleeves fell naturally with gravity, revealing her fair arms raised high.
A flame emerged from the palm of his hand and stretched into the sky like a red line drawn in the air, growing higher and higher.
From the inner city to the outer city, numerous spirit beings seemed to sense something and subconsciously looked in the direction of the flames.
Although they were not in the courtyard array and could not see anything, they could clearly sense what was drawing their attention.
In the next instant, more than 7,000 human figures suddenly disappeared and fell into another world.
……
Volume 1: Chapter 316, The Changing Winds of Change
"It's done."
Xi Heng clapped his hands, and the flames that stretched straight upwards immediately disappeared.
At the same time, the wisps of spiritual fire placed inside the bodies of the more than seven thousand spirit beings by her external avatar were also withdrawn into her palm one by one.
With a single clenched fist in his right hand, the spiritual fire was concealed.
"With over seven thousand people suddenly entering, I wonder if the spirit entities inside the space can hold their own..."
The white-haired girl lightly touched her cheek with her finger, then activated the wide-area network and sent a message to the Great Spirit:
"The awakened body has been contained. Use your channels to secretly purchase at least a few months' worth of Spirit Creation Fasting Pills and send them over."
The other party responded: "A large batch cannot be concealed at once, so it can be sent in twenty batches every day."
“Okay.” Xi Heng said, then recalled the avatar that had been sent to the outside world and left it in the backyard as a space transfer station.
"Also, send some simple tools over. Give them to the avatar in the back of the courtyard... Hmm, there should be more awakened spirit creations appearing in the future, so send the information to the avatar as well."
After receiving a reply from the other end, Xi Heng waved his hand to close the message screen and looked ahead.
Two or three seconds later, a flash of fire appeared before her eyes, and a clone with the exact same face and figure as her reappeared.
"It's up to you now." The girl conveyed her thoughts to this clone, waved her hand, and turned to return to her residence.
Not long after, the first batch of flying boats carrying special fasting pills for spiritual body creation landed, leaving behind many wooden boxes before departing.
The wooden crates materialized outside his body, disappearing one by one into the space of spiritual fire.
Xi Heng returned to his cultivation room and released spiritual fire to reveal the scene of the Penglai space.
As he noticed, because the newly awakened beings still retained the ability to communicate with each other, the small society in the space did not become chaotic as he had imagined, so he nodded in relief.
"Let the avatars and spirit beings handle these less important matters."
One only needs to focus on the main thing—that is, to continue one's spiritual practice.
Close your eyes and observe your mind, breathing in and out to let your inner light circulate.
……
Seven days later, after finishing his cultivation, he took another look and found that the spiritual fire space had stabilized.
The many tools brought by the Great Spirit were distributed, and the various workshops of the spirit beings also sped up their work to help the newly arrived spirit beings build houses, cultivate new land, and plant crops.
The town expanded several times in a short period of time. Although most of the buildings were still just wooden structures, people could be seen hammering and tinkering inside or moving timber and earth and stones outside.
"Everyone's so busy..." Xi Heng blinked.
Seven days felt incredibly short to her.
Almost instantly, the town in the Penglai space changed its appearance with just a blink of an eye.
"The fact that seven thousand more people can be handled so well shows that the characteristics of the spirit creation body are quite good."
She moved her finger, and the scene before her shifted to the direction of the temple, where she discovered that many more members had been recruited—the little girl who had been awakened by the Great Spirit earlier was also inside the temple.
The two saintly sisters are here, communicating with the newly arrived awakened beings through telepathy, assigning duties, tools, and so on.
They don't need to talk to each other; they can plan and perfect their ideas in just a few seconds by communicating their hearts.
After the spiritual connection ends, the newly awakened beings often perform respectful rituals towards the saint.
Outside the town, the trees are still growing lushly, and from time to time, spirit beasts emerge to help the awakened beings build their homes.
The overall space is also growing; let alone seven thousand people, even hundreds of thousands more would not be a problem.
The scene before Xi Heng's eyes flickered, and then the image of flowing water extending from the high ground of the divine tree into the distance appeared.
The fallen fruit transformed into streams of water, turning what was once a creek into a river.
She raised her finger and pointed.
The nets were then opened, and some fish fry were purchased and delivered.
A few minutes later, a white bird with a storage bag on its chest landed on the windowsill and released the package from the bag.
Then, a transparent aquarium, one meter wide, appeared.
Xi Heng released a burst of fiery color that covered the object, and the object disappeared in the next instant.
Inside the spiritual space, the box had sunk to the bottom of the river, and various fish fry scattered like ink falling into a cup.
Because of the abundant spiritual energy, the fish fry are very energetic and swim freely with the current.
Xi Heng turned his attention back to the flames and casually glanced at the latest news through the array network.
The top item on the trending list is related to Yuansu Company's new product.
After the Longevity Plan was announced, it not only attracted the attention of ordinary people, but also caused many cultivators who were in the early stages of Qi Refining and were not very interested in their cultivation to give up their own cultivation, order the Longevity Body and return to the ranks of ordinary people.
These kinds of cultivators cultivate for the sake of longevity, but now that they can achieve longevity without cultivation, why would they need to purify their minds and cultivate diligently every day?
This matter was widely reported and interviewed by various media outlets, and the company also promoted it extensively, encouraging the target audience to order the longevity plan.
