Reborn as a girl, I will live forever in the world of immortality

(The previous chapter was not successfully checked in, so it was merged with the previous chapter. The one here is the new one.)

In a valley, a layer of azure protective shield as bright as a gem was like a sky curtain, covering the space within a radius of ten meters.

Inside this protective shield, there were several figures standing quietly.

Looking closely, the aura surrounding these figures is as solid as substance, rich and powerful, which makes people look sideways.

They were all incredibly powerful Yuanying-stage masters! At this moment, these masters were sitting cross-legged on the ground, each of them emitting a dazzling beam of spiritual energy.

These beams of light rushed directly towards the azure shield above, and wherever they passed, ripples appeared on the shield's surface.

Among this group of Nascent Soul powerhouses, an old man with snow-white hair and a kind but slightly sad face was particularly eye-catching. This man was Li Daoyi.

His weathered eyes were now staring at the beautiful girl not far away who had her eyes closed and looked like a fairy descending to earth. Then he couldn't help but sigh heavily.

At the beginning, Li Dao had asked Wu Chen to come to the border of the Southern Territory with the intention of letting her go through some trials and challenges here in order to find an opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

After all, although the southern border is full of dangers and one may die if not careful, as the saying goes, "only when one is at death can one be reborn", monks who are struggling on the brink of life and death can often achieve faster growth and breakthroughs.

Moreover, the current situation of Xuanyuan Sect is already very urgent, and there is no time for Wuchen to practice step by step and improve his strength.

Everything was moving in a good direction. With his own protection, Wu Chen encountered many dangerous situations along the way.

Fortunately, she was able to escape danger every time, and with her extraordinary talent and willpower, her cultivation progress was extremely rapid.

Just a month ago, Wu Chen successfully passed the Nascent Soul Tribulation and officially joined the ranks of Nascent Soul cultivators.

Li Daoyi thought that Xuanyuan Sect was about to prosper, but unexpectedly, he fell into this terrifying formation that could kill the soul of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

If Taoist Linghe did not have a formation that could resist the attack on the soul, their souls would have been destroyed by this formation in the first place.

Although the five of them managed to survive, everyone knew that the blue light shield could only barely defend against the impact on their souls. Once their physical and spiritual power were exhausted, they would probably end up with their souls destroyed.

Each of the five Nascent Soul cultivators had a pale face, as if they were at the end of their strength.

However, this is indeed the case. This terrifying formation not only has the power to kill souls, but also has a terrifying bell sound that rings every two hours. The formation is completely unable to defend against the bell sound. Although the power has been weakened, it has also weakened a lot of their souls.

Their persistence at this moment only slowed down the arrival of death.

"Fellow Daoists, the power of this formation is truly too overwhelming. Even if we try our best to hold on, we can only delay the moment of our demise."

The woman in a black dress slowly opened her tightly closed eyes, looked at an old man in green and said:

"Linghe, I won't beat around the bush here. We're in such a desperate situation now. We're all on the same page. Just tell me what the price is."

The old man in green nodded and didn't hesitate any longer.

"Everyone, we can't move an inch right now. If we continue to be stuck like this, we'll just die.

Might as well give it a try! This Five Elements Spirit Repelling Formation I possess is not only able to withstand fierce attacks from the soul, but it can also transfer all of these soul attacks to one person. In this way, after a successful transfer, we can regain our ability to move."

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell silent.

Everyone's face was terribly gloomy. They knew in their hearts that this meant that someone among the people present would have to step forward and be the one to sacrifice themselves in exchange for everyone's life.

They are all Yuanying stage cultivators who have achieved success in their cultivation. Each of them is the backbone and profound foundation of their respective sects.

What's more, each of them has lived for hundreds of years and has long developed a deep attachment to all things in the world. Who would be willing to give up their precious life easily?

After a long while, someone finally broke the suffocating silence and asked softly, "Fellow Daoist Linghe, is there really no other feasible way?" His tone was full of unwillingness and despair.

Ling He also sighed and shook his head, "My fellow Daoists, we are all from the Five Sects of the Southern Region. We are of the same blood and we are all related. I do not want to deceive you. This is our last resort. This formation only has a range of a hundred miles. We, Yuanying cultivators, can use the escape technique to escape from this formation even in just a moment.

But the power of this formation is truly incomparably strong. Even for a moment, our souls will be annihilated."

He didn't say the rest, but everyone knew that someone had to stand up and buy them this moment.

The scene fell silent.

After a while, Taoist Linghe became anxious, "My fellow Taoists, please make a decision quickly. Calculating the time, that terrifying bell sound is about to come again. In our current state, it is hard to say whether we can withstand it."

At this time, Li Daoyi sighed and stood up.

Liao Wuchen's eyes moved, "Master!"

Although Li Daoyi was usually very strict with Wuchen, there was no doubt that he was the closest person to Wuchen in Xuanyuan Sect except He Ling.

She had lost her memory before, and has been practicing with Li Daoyi for these years. He preached to her and gave her magic weapons. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are real father and daughter.

Li Daoyi smiled at Wuchen and shook his head slightly.

Taoist Linghe looked at Li Daoyi excitedly, "Daoyou Li, are you willing to step forward?"

Li Dao nodded and said, "I am willing to sacrifice myself to help you escape."

The other three Nascent Soul cultivators all looked at Li Daoyi with respect, but they did not say any polite words. They were all smart people who had lived for hundreds of years, and they must have known that Li Daoyi definitely had conditions.

"Brother Li, please state your conditions. I swear to heaven in the name of Xu Linghe of the Three Treasures Sect that I will fulfill your request."

“You are all smart people, so I will speak frankly.

After my death, for the next thirty years, each of you will give 10% of your resources to the Xuanyuan Sect every year."

The woman and a middle-aged man immediately agreed. Ten percent of the resources was nothing compared to them, the Nascent Soul cultivators.

Taoist Linghe said, "Brother Li, my Sanbao Sect has many Nascent Soul cultivators, and my value is not that great. I can only guarantee to give you half of it."

Li Daoyi was not surprised. As the leader of the five sects, Sanbao Sect was wealthy and powerful, so even if it was only half-completed, it was still a lot.

"Okay, besides that," he looked at Wu Chen, "I also want you to take care of my disciple."

This time all three of them nodded.

The three of them made a promise to Wu Chen to let them do something.

After the three of them swore an oath by the way of heaven, Li Daoyi nodded.

Finally, Li Daoyi looked at Wu Chen.

He stretched out his finger and pointed, and five rays of light floated out, all of which were shining brightly. They were five extraordinary magic weapons.

"Chen'er, take this Jade Token of the Sect Leader as well. From now on, you will be the master of Xuanyuan Sect."

Tears welled up in Liao Wuchen's eyes at this moment. He nodded heavily and then put away the magic weapon and jade order.

After doing all this, Li Daoyi felt his whole body lighten. He naturally had his own selfish motives. This was like tying Wuchen and Xuanyuan Sect together.

This is an open conspiracy, a conspiracy that comes at the cost of death.

Taoist Linghe made a seal with his hand and looked at Li Daoyi with solemn eyes.

"Brother Li, have a safe journey."

The next moment, the blue light curtain changed, and all the light curtains covered Li Daoyi.

In just a moment, Li Daoyi stood there with a peaceful expression and no longer moved.

"Now, let's go!"

The four Nascent Soul cultivators all used the escape technique.

It transformed into four streams of light and fled into the distance.

At this moment, a voice came from the sky, "Want to leave? It's not that easy!"

In an instant, a pitch-black sky enveloped the entire formation.

The shield lights of the four people suddenly stopped.

Before he had run far, he had to reveal his figure.

"what!"

"It's the person who controls the formation!"

The expressions of the four of them changed drastically, but fortunately they were already far away from the central area. Even if there was interference, the escape technique of the Nascent Soul cultivator was extremely fast.

Now they appeared more than ten miles away from the center.

The power of the formation was also weakened here.

Taoist Linghe raised his hand and shot out a ray of spiritual light, and suddenly a blue light shield enveloped everyone.

He looked at Wuchen with some surprise. He didn't expect that Wuchen, who had just entered the Nascent Soul stage, had an escape technique that was no worse than those of the veteran Nascent Soul masters.

But the next moment he had no time to pay attention to Wu Chen.

A trace of bitterness appeared on his face, "God wants to kill me."

A figure covered in flames appeared in front of them.

He was a strong man with strong muscles all over his body. His whole body was filled with orange flames, and his eyes were very empty.

The moment the four Nascent Soul cultivators appeared, he turned his head and looked at them.

"Lu Xiu?"

They all knew this person, a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Linghuo Sect.

"Don't look at him. His soul has been annihilated. All that's left is the fighting consciousness in his body. He will attack indiscriminately."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the others changed. Their current condition was extremely bad. The strange bell sound had already weakened their souls. Now, not only did they have to consume spiritual power to maintain the spirit-avoiding formation, but they also had to find time to deal with a Nascent Soul cultivator who only had the will to fight.

Under normal circumstances, they would definitely not take Lu Xiu seriously. No matter how powerful he was, he was just a corpse. But at this moment, they all felt a sense of despair.
