Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

As the dragon roared, Xi Heng, without any fluctuation, routinely cast the Heavenly Demon Transformation on himself, then drew his sword and plunged it into his waist and abdomen, activating the Bloodline Forbidden Technique.

Then, he jumped to the bottom of the well.

A long wind whistled, causing clothes to flutter.

The sword gathered its internal energy and vital force, unleashing layers of white malevolent energy.

In mid-air, he first used the Blood Wave Sword Technique to sever the attacking dragon's head from its throat. Upon landing, he immediately gathered all his vital energy, transforming it into the Sword of Despair—

"By the sound of death, life is cut off!"

Step forward, swing sword, thrust.

Layers of white flames burst forth, crushing the space.

The black sand dune that was a hundred meters away just a moment ago was now, in the blink of an eye, a sharp blade had fallen on the dragon's body.

The white demon erupted like a flashbang, engulfing everything. Countless pieces of flesh, scales, and bones were pulverized and disintegrated, turning into countless pieces of rotten flesh that looked like they had been crushed and ground, which were scattered like blood rain until they perished.

……

The seventh new spirit stone fell into the inventory and was taken out by Xi Heng.

The spirit stone she was brushing was no longer a blood spirit stone, but a blue spirit stone that the Crimson Goddess had obtained during her adventure. It was twice the size of the blood spirit stone and contained more spiritual energy.

Originally, this azure spirit stone had been used up once, but it has been replenished again through the Blood Sea Great Art's spirit-absorbing technique.

Farming these blue and green spirit stones yields higher returns than farming blood spirit stones.

However, this battle was different from the one with Fang Tiande that took place outside Jinshi City.

This time, her repeated slaying of the gray dragon at the bottom of the well didn't seem to be helping her gain any benefits in martial arts.

Xi Heng had already swung the Sword of Despair seven times in a row... but he did not feel even the slightest improvement in these Swords of Despair.

Previously, when he used the Sword of Destruction to kill Fang Tiande, he could feel his skills improving each time, honing his moves to become more and more proficient, and finally condensing the ultimate skill of transforming into power – Absolute Life.

But this time it's completely different. As the ultimate move of the Bloodline Sword Technique, the Sword of Despair doesn't seem to improve with the number of times it's used.

"The Bloodline Sword Technique is already perfect enough; it seems to have reached its limit?"

"No, perhaps this is the limit for mortals."

The tenth spirit stone...

Fourteen...

After using the Sword of Despair fourteen times in a row, there was still no progress.

Xi Heng had to admit that his original plan—to improve his skills by using the Sword of Life-Saving countless times and then use even stronger techniques to try and reach the level of Transformation Realm—was likely to fail.

"Perhaps I'm thinking wrong. If I want to break through the limits that the Sword of Life has reached, I might have to find another way."

After slicing off half of the gray dragon's body at the bottom of the well with another sword strike, she stopped reloading the save file and simply sat in the gray space, tapping her cheek with her fingertips and talking to herself.

"What we need to focus on now may no longer be technique, but rather inner strength or physique..."

"I am not the only one in this world researching the path beyond the Transformation Realm... In terms of internal energy research, the Hunyuan Gong of Donghuangmei Mountain can be considered the culmination of all research."

She had read the Hunyuan Gongfa several times, and it also contained speculations and glimpses about the realm beyond Huajin.

It involves concentrating all the strength, energy, and power of the body in the dantian, thus cultivating what is known as 'Dantian Hunyuan Jin'.

Those who created Hunyuan Gong speculate that this energy will be a higher level of energy than Huajin. It can not only circulate through muscles, bones, skin, and flesh like Huajin, protecting internal organs and lungs, but also influence the movement of the lungs and lungs with intention, allowing martial artists to further master their bodies.

This path, seemingly the most promising one for achieving success, is the result of centuries of relentless exploration by martial artists.

Following this line of thought, Donghuang Meishan has developed the Hunyuan Gongfa, a martial art that combines internal energy and external strength, and has been practicing it for several years.

But to this day, no one has succeeded.

"After you've used up all 100 spirit stones, go back to the Imperial Palace study and study the Primordial Chaos Technique carefully." Xi Heng nodded.

"As for now, let's just kill to our hearts' content."

……

Chapter 139, The Unity of the Three Elements

Roll, roll.

After finishing, a hundred cyan spirit stones slowly moved through the inventory.

Like delicacies on a buffet conveyor belt, leisurely swaying in front of the girl.

Although there was no sound when the inventory scrolled according to her wishes, she still added a little sound effect in her mind.

The time spent farming spirit stones is negligible compared to the time spent cultivating dragon balls.

It was as if he had only swung his sword a hundred times, and then cut down hundreds of blue spirit stones all at once.

The process was somewhat tedious, but not particularly troublesome.

Any previous encounter on the northern frontier was far more intense than this.

A hundred spirit stones were easily obtained... However, there was still no progress in the Sword of Despair.

"Indeed, we can't put our hopes for advancement on skills..." Xi Heng finally realized this.

With her current physique and internal strength, the only ultimate technique she can unleash is the Sword of Despair.

If other aspects fail to improve, then even if this sword technique is repeated thousands or tens of thousands of times, no progress may be made.

In terms of physical strength, after taking the Dragon Transformation Heart Pill, she has far surpassed ordinary martial artists at the Transformation Realm.

Even without continuing to consume the liver and gallbladder pills that would transform him into a true dragon, the increase in his flesh and blood alone would be enough to make him stand out from the crowd.

Now, the only thing that can continue to improve her is her internal energy.

The inventory containing a hundred spirit stones gradually disappeared.

Xi Heng clicked to load the save file, and then clicked on the file for Locked Dragon Well.

In the dimly lit cave, only a dozen or so torches provided a faint light, along with some luminous mushrooms growing on the side walls.

Surrounded by damp earth and rocks, the girl had just opened her eyes when she heard the long roar of a giant dragon from below.

Upon hearing the sound, she subconsciously raised her left hand to her brow and touched her fair skin.

Almost, he instinctively summoned the Heavenly Demon Transformation.

She let out a long breath.

"We've already had our fill of killing, there's no need to continue..."

He lowered his left arm and also relaxed his right hand, which had already pulled the sword blade out a few inches.

Turning around, he saw his elite soldiers, whose faces and muscles were tense from hearing the dragon's roar.

"It's just a sick dragon, why are you all so scared?" Xi Heng clicked his tongue.

To her, the giant dragon below was nothing more than a hundred defeated foe, something she could kill at will.

Even though the dragon's roar sounds like a terrifying behemoth from a movie, its actual combat power is just so-so.

The elite soldiers in the rear responded immediately, but their tense expressions did not ease much.

They simply could not ignore the dragon's roar.

"Go back. I'll find some free time in a few days and then slay the dragon at the bottom of the well." Xi Heng waved his hand casually.

The elite soldiers were unwilling to stay in this place any longer and quickly agreed.

……

Soon after, a young girl dressed in a red outfit emerged from the underground cave and sat down in a luxurious carriage outside.

From the foot of Penglai Mountain, he leisurely returned to his Fuqing Palace.

Upon returning to his room, he summoned a palace maid and asked her to retrieve the Hunyuan Gong (a martial arts technique) sent from Donghuangmei Mountain from the royal library.

In recent years, Donghuangmei Mountain has neither expanded its territory nor continued to gather martial arts forces from various places as in the past.

On the contrary, they seemed to have devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the study of martial arts, and many kung fu and martial arts techniques have been passed down.

The most widely circulated of these is the Hunyuan Gongfa (Primordial Chaos Technique).

They yearn for more and more people to practice this martial art, so that they can continuously summarize their experiences, make Hunyuan Gong more complete, reach the pinnacle of Huajin martial arts, and thus glimpse beyond Huajin.

The Hunyuan Gong itself has already summarized a great deal of experience from predecessors—the section before the Huajin stage is quite complete.

However, after achieving the Transformation Realm, he only listed a few ideas, without any specific path of cultivation to follow.

To fathom the level of Transformation Force through this method, one can only explore it slowly and painstakingly.

Before long, the master of ceremonies and palace maids respectfully presented the Hunyuan Gong manual.

Xi Heng dismissed the other party, then casually sipped his tea and perused the manual once more.

After glancing briefly at the aspects of Ming Jin and An Jin, her gaze fell upon the most important ideas for her, namely, the ideas about Hua Jin.

"Hold fast to the elixir and guard the One, and everywhere you will achieve perfection." Xi Heng murmured:

"Concentrate all your essence, energy, and spirit into one point, condense your blood and qi into substance, and gather it in the dantian..."

"In this way, one can exert all one's strength with a single touch. Even if one only lightly touches a wall or boulder with one's fingertip, one can instantly unleash tremendous force to shatter it into pieces."

"But this path is still just speculation..."

The "Embracing the Core and Guarding the One" described at the end of the Hunyuan Gong manual is a seemingly feasible path summarized by many exceptionally talented martial artists.

But it seems that way, but it's just that—it seems that way. To date, no one has actually succeeded.

Because no matter how much mental effort is put into regulating the flow of Qi and blood, the body cannot achieve the state of 'solidification'.

Thus, our predecessors concluded that the body's Qi and blood are simply insufficient to form the elixir.

Because of the limitations of the human body, no matter how powerful a martial artist is, their internal energy and blood can't increase by much.

The book also contains text that does not approve of this method of embracing the elixir, saying: Simply tightening the qi and blood, regardless of the amount of qi, will not make it possible to solidify the essence, qi and spirit.

Because people are limited by their physical strength.

Once the strength is released, even if the essence, energy, and spirit have been solidified, they will quickly disperse and become loose.

Unless one can directly change the form of Qi and blood in some way, it is impossible to achieve the elixir of immortality.

After reading silently, Xi Heng muttered to himself, "Perhaps it's necessary to change the structure of qi and blood?"

"Not only qi and blood, but also the internal spirit and energy must be combined."

Xi Heng stared at the key points in the text, pondering for a long time, but still couldn't figure out how to achieve it.

Finally, I simply followed the dozen or so ideas in the book, starting with the first one.

"The method of embracing the elixir requires condensing the body's qi and blood into a solid form, but the body's qi and blood are usually insufficient. If the blood-line restriction method is used to unleash the primordial qi, will it be enough?"

"Or, strengthening the body with the power of dragon transformation can also bring a considerable amount of vital energy."

"Let's try it first, using the most direct method to compress the blood and qi..."

There is still no definitive conclusion on how to adjust the flow of Qi and blood in the meridians when attempting to achieve the "Dan" (a concept in Traditional Chinese Medicine).

The circulation of meridians is an extremely serious matter for martial artists and should never be manipulated arbitrarily.

Otherwise, at best, one will fall seriously ill; at worst, one's meridians and internal organs will be ruptured, leading to qi deviation and death.

When ordinary martial artists attempt this method, they must proceed cautiously and step by step, for fear that a single wrong step will plunge them into the abyss.

It is probably because most martial artists cherish their own lives that the method of cultivating the elixir has made no progress to this day.

But Xi Heng didn't care.

So without any preparation, he sat cross-legged on the bed in the palace and began to close his eyes and meditate inwards.

By focusing the eyes on the nose and the nose on the heart, and guiding the flow of Qi and blood through several cycles, the flow of Qi and blood is forcibly blocked in the most forceful way, compressing the meridians.

Ignoring the expansion of the meridians, the qi and blood flowing from the limbs and bones surged towards the dantian.

One second, two seconds,

"Cough cough."

The next moment, the discomfort of her meridians about to burst made her stop moving.

Before I could even hold it for three seconds, a sweet sensation rushed into my throat.

The girl covered her mouth with her hand and coughed up a smear of black blood, muttering to herself, "It seems like a blood vessel in one of my internal organs has ruptured..."
