Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

Although he had the sword heart to assist him, Xi Heng was able to solve these details of sword wielding in no time. However, it took him a considerable amount of time to perfect this extremely difficult sword technique and complete it into the third stage of the sword technique of severing life, through mental practice.

It has finally been completed today.

When practiced in the mind, this move will shatter the enemy's entire body. The sword energy can extend for thousands of meters, and even against a large army, it can defeat the enemy in one move.

In reality, Xi Heng propped himself up and slowly stood up.

Given her mindset, it's understandable that she felt a little nervous about the results of months of hard work.

"I've successfully rehearsed this move in my mind more than ten times..."

Previously, when she used the moves that she had mentally rehearsed with Kenshin in real life, she succeeded on her first attempt.

"This time, there won't be any problems either." Xi Heng patted his chest to calm himself down.

The girl, dressed in a simple dress and carrying an indoor longsword, headed towards the courtyard behind the altar.

As she opened the door, a sudden autumn wind blew, brushing against her long-uncut temples.

Xi Heng let the cold wind brush against his cheeks, his gaze quietly falling on a huge mulberry tree in the courtyard, and slowly approached.

Although she hadn't used her sword skills for two months in reality, she still moved with ease and skill.

One can enter the state of mind simply by hearing the hissing sound of the sword being drawn.

The mulberry tree trunk is as thick as two adult men could hug. If an ordinary person were to try to cut it down with a sword, it would probably take years to break it.

However, for Xi Heng, this mulberry tree was quite fragile and not a truly suitable training stone.

Unfortunately, there were no other more suitable targets around here.

She focused her mind and activated her sword spirit.

He cast aside all impure thoughts unrelated to swordsmanship, and his mind became increasingly clear.

Close your eyes, and all you see is a vast, empty white space.

As she opened her eyes again, the longsword had become a part of her soul.

Xi Heng felt the blade breathing along with her breath, and her heart and the sword began to harmonize and resonate.

Slowly, she rotated her wrists, turning the longsword she had been holding horizontally into a reverse grip with both hands, the tip of the sword pointing steadily at her abdomen.

"Most methods of neutralizing internal energy involve cultivating internal strength through internal energy training, and then using this internal strength to blend the light and dark energies into the meridians, thereby achieving neutralization of internal energy."

"But I don't integrate the energy into my body; I achieve it through the sword."

When the light and dark energies are mixed on the sword, and life energy is used as internal force to blend them together, the neutralizing force can be naturally obtained.

If she hadn't grasped the essence of swordsmanship, even with this inspiration, she wouldn't have been able to bring it to fruition.

Even within the body, to precisely blend the two energies without causing the meridians and dantian to explode and lead to qi deviation, extremely strong control is required.

When advancing to the Transformation Realm, every detail must be flawless; otherwise, at best, one will fail and fall from the Transformation Realm, depleting one's maximum Qi and Blood; at worst, one will die on the spot.

Any method of advancing to the next level of martial arts is extremely risky; a slight misstep can lead to failure.

If this is true even within the body, it is even less likely to succeed when applied to external objects.

If ordinary martial artists with internal strength were to see what Xi Heng was about to do, they would probably just think it was the act of a madman.

To waste precious life energy on a sword that has no meridians is simply courting death.

But for Xi Heng himself, the sword was closer to his soul than his body.

Compared to her arms, meridians, and dantian, she had much stronger control over the blade.

The subtle details that need to be paid attention to when condensing and transforming energy may not be fully controllable within the body, but they are easy to control on the sword, which is directly intertwined with the mind.

……

The sword tip rested steadily in front of her waist. As the cool autumn breeze blew by, the girl's outer garment rippled gently, leaving a thin mark on the sharp blade that gleamed with a faint red light.

The next instant, Xi Heng did not hesitate to urge his qi and blood to gather at two acupoints, and the sword blade pierced straight through his slender waist, bringing out a red line that connected the Ren and Du meridians.

"...It still hurts a little."

Xi Heng pulled out the long sword that had pierced his waist and abdomen, letting the blood drip from it.

She was already used to the feeling of her waist being pierced by a sharp blade, and her sword heart could easily suppress the pain, so it wouldn't have too much of an impact on her.

As always, vital energy spontaneously surged from the acupoints to the limbs and bones, seemingly uncontrollable.

However, Xi Heng had already had the same experience more than a hundred times, and had rehearsed it many times in Jian Xin's spiritual space, so moving his vital energy was a piece of cake for him.

The body's vital energy, enveloped in primordial energy, flows through the arms to generate power, which then flows into the sword.

At the same time, the hidden energy that had been brewing for so long rushed toward the longsword.

At first, the body's meridians could withstand it, but as the surging blood and qi gradually expanded, it quickly reached its limit.

A flash of blood appeared on the surface of the sword. Xi Heng had only been gathering his strength and had not yet swung the sword when wielding it, and wisps of blood spontaneously appeared in the surrounding air.

Blood streaks adorned the thick tree trunk before my eyes, displaying a chaotic array of sword marks.

"Some of the blood and qi overflowed from the sword's core... Sure enough, the blade itself could hardly bear it." Xi Heng felt the blade trembling slightly.

The thought flashed by in an instant. She fixed her gaze, her body trembled slightly, and the meridians in her body broke inch by inch from the ends. The uncontrollable blood and qi were forcefully pushed into the long sword in her hand.

Although the meridians are disordered, the internal energy has already been stored in various parts of the body.

Power surges, blood flows, muscles pulsate, internal organs resonate—the body's vital energy has been gathered.

As the ends of her hair gradually turned white, Xi Heng gently raised the longsword that was glowing with blood. The influence of the sword's core spread rapidly outward from the notch in the blade, from inside her body.

If anyone were standing nearby at this moment, they would surely be influenced by the sword's spirit and involuntarily forget all their thoughts, staring blankly at the sword.

Furthermore, anything that is pointed at by the blade will be as if blocked, making it difficult to move or dodge the sword.

This sword strike not only pushed the physical body to its limits, but also revealed the deeply honed sword intent, influencing reality.

This sword is one that cannot be dodged.

When the enemy was pinned to the spot by Kenshin, staring at the sword with dread, Xi Heng suddenly made his move.

Step forward, swing sword, thrust—

With fluid movements, Xi Heng created spiderweb-like cracks several meters in diameter on the stone slabs of the courtyard beneath his feet.

A streak of red light flashed across the sky like a shooting star, arriving before the giant mulberry tree she considered her enemy.

"Yueyin, death is nigh—"

The sword blade thrust forward, piercing through the white barrier.

Her internal meridians ruptured inch by inch in an instant due to the surge of vital energy. After this sword strike, she would surely die, but this also allowed her to unleash the most powerful sword strike.

"Sever all life!"

After the sword blade pierced the white barrier, the color that erupted was no longer bright red blood, but a layered white like flower petals blooming in the dawn.

At this moment, the sword energy is no longer just composed of blood and qi, but also includes a vast amount of primordial energy.

The Sword of Absolute Life draws the vital energy from the body—the energy that powers the heartbeat, the internal organs, and all other life activities—and pours it into this sword.

After using this sword, not only will the body's meridians be severed, but all life activities will also lose their power.

However, because of this, the sword strike infused with the strongest vital energy in the human body will also become her most powerful strike.

Layers upon layers of white light burned wildly like raging fire, crushing the air and piercing through space, reaching the front of the mulberry tree, which was already covered in wounds from the aftershocks of the sword's force.

The same sword, containing three bursts of power, pierced the tree trunk. The first strike alone completely destroyed the trunk, which was as thick as two people could hug, causing it to fall backward.

The second burst of force erupted in the next instant, directly centered on the spot where the longsword had pierced, creating a circular hole as wide as a person.

Countless fragments and splinters of wood shot backward, just like the blood and flesh that had splattered from Fang Tiande's chest where the two severed pieces of wood had pierced through him earlier.

However, the tree trunk was too fragile. The sword that could only create a hole the size of a bowl in the body of a martial artist who had just reached the level of mastery could create a hole nearly two meters in diameter here.

As splintered wood flew, the third stage of the "Desperate Resurrection" erupted.

The primordial energy surged like a tsunami, and the burning white waves bloomed once more. The deathly white sword energy directly crushed the giant mulberry tree that was falling.

The tall, thick trunks, branches, and leaves all seemed to have been suddenly shredded by a shredder, disintegrating and falling into the distance like a torrential downpour.

The sword's momentum did not stop after splitting the huge tree into pieces. It continued to surge forward, smashing through the courtyard wall a hundred meters away, and destroying many houses in the distance that had been burned to ashes. It stirred up clouds of smoke and dust before its momentum finally slowed down.

Within the range of the sword energy, both the sturdy and thick courtyard walls and the many remaining houses behind them shattered and destroyed the moment they came into contact.

Immediately, the sword energy flew far into the distance, disappearing into the horizon, its distance unknown.

Xi Heng ignored the physical collapse that followed the use of the sword, and simply watched the white sword energy fly far away before turning his gaze back to the long sword still held horizontally in his hand.

After a brief moment of glory, the sword returned to its calm state.

Fragments of leaves and pieces of wood fell to the ground one after another. Once the air was clear, the surrounding sounds gradually quieted down.

In the silence, Xi Heng clearly sensed with his sword heart that a pure, condensed energy was gently moving in the middle of the blade.

Within these few strands of energy are hidden Ming Jin and An Jin, which are shaped like long spirals. They intertwine and combine with each other, changing themselves and each other, and together forming a new force—Hua Jin.

"As expected, as long as a move can be fully practiced in the mind, it can be used perfectly in reality."

At this moment, the wisp of energy attached to the sword, compressed to the extreme by the vast primordial energy, is the transformation of energy.

Xi Heng used his sword heart to guide the energy within the sword back to his gradually collapsing body, allowing it to flow through his damaged meridians and flesh, returning to his damaged dantian.

To her surprise, the rate at which the transforming energy would collapse would temporarily slow down once it flowed through any organ or internal organ.

Maintaining physical stability seems to be one of the inherent abilities of Hua Jin (化劲).

However, given her current injuries, these few extremely subtle strands of energy are no longer of any use.

"Once I've accumulated enough internal energy, perhaps even a single use of the Death-Slaying Sword won't kill me instantly; there's still hope." Xi Heng thought silently, gently relaxing his arm and letting the longsword fall.

Blood seeped from her body, adding layers of gray and black to her vision.

As his heart finally stopped beating, Xi Heng, who had used the Sword of Despair, swayed unsteadily and leaned to one side.

When I opened my eyes again, all I saw were the words "Load Save" standing firmly in front of me.

Without hesitation, she turned her gaze to the other column of neat, small print on the side.

Name: Zhao Xiheng

Realm: Martial Arts Cultivator (Transformation-level Martial Artist)

"It's finally done..."

.........

Chapter 81, Returning Home

Name: Zhao Xiheng

Realm: Martial Arts Cultivator (Transformation-level Martial Artist)

Biological age: 19/19

Mental age: 24/1044

Save opportunities: 1

Note: You will get one save opportunity when your realm is upgraded.

Before loading your save file, you can choose to keep one item you owned in your previous life, as well as your current cultivation level.

Xi Heng breathed a long sigh of relief: "Finally, I've reached the Transformation Realm."

This goal had been looming in her sights for a long time, and she had worked so hard for it. Today, she finally arrived at it, and naturally felt a sense of relief and relaxation.

"The previous description of his cultivation level was 'extraordinary person,' but now it's 'martial cultivator'?"

"In the system's eyes, only those who have reached the Transformation Realm are considered martial arts practitioners? They really have high standards..."

Xi Heng continued looking down.

"After advancing to the Transformation Realm, my mental age has increased significantly... and I've also gained a new save file, though I wonder when it will come in handy."

During the period when she last mastered the sword heart, her upper limit of mental age gradually increased by forty years. Now that she has achieved the Transformation Realm, it has increased by another forty years.

"There is indeed more and more time... but it may only become more and more difficult to increase this limit further."

Just like extending one's physiological lifespan, through exercise, maintenance, and supplementation, it's not difficult to extend it from sixty to seventy years old.

However, if you want to extend your lifespan from one hundred to one hundred and ten, the difficulty will increase dramatically.

Xi Heng believes that if he fails to find the method of cultivating qi for longevity and continues to practice martial arts, he may need to reach the level of Transformation Realm before he can have another major breakthrough in his mental lifespan.
