Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal
Page 266
Xi Heng knocked on the spirit-locking array again, and took the opportunity to introduce herself to the array, saying that she came from another realm, had cultivated the Blazing Spirit Heavenly Technique passed down from the Fire Hell, and still had dozens of spirit stones available.
dong dong dong-
There was still no response to the knocking.
The girl glanced at the flying boat parked to the side, and then explained that she could give the interdimensional flying boat as a gift, only asking to come here to cultivate her Qi and cultivate immortality in peace.
After saying that, he sat cross-legged outside the formation and waited for half an hour.
But the Great Spirit Locking Array in front of them remained completely still.
“It seems like nobody here is paying attention to the outside of the Spirit Locking Array…” Xi Heng clicked his tongue.
After waiting a few more moments, without even retrieving her flying boat, she turned and left—heading to the nearby Divine Capital Altar.
Climb over the white stone city wall and step into the faith capital of the Great Sheng Kingdom.
At her speed, mortals would never be able to detect her.
As a strong gust of wind blew by, Xi Heng, dressed in simple pink and white clothes, landed silently on the white jade stone slabs of the city.
He glanced casually at the white walls and houses around him, then headed towards the main street in the city.
Although the buildings here are all clean, tidy, and orderly, they are quite monotonous.
Although there are several magnificent and intricately carved palaces among them, they all seem less grand compared to the capital of her Tianzhao Kingdom.
Most of the people walking on the road were wearing white robes and pure white clothes, while a few were wearing ordinary clothes.
Her pink and white dress was not eye-catching, but her neat white hair always attracted respectful glances from others—because she was no longer used to her original black hair, Xi Heng used some tricks to change it back to white.
White hair is a sign of being favored in this world. Xi Heng knew that if she also wore a white robe and held a fire-patterned symbol of the Pure Fire Cult in her hand, she might be qualified to be a candidate for saintess based on her appearance alone.
With this white-haired, favored persona, she could freely contact the leaders or saints of the Fire Cult in this world and have them help her enter Hellfire.
"The leaders of these religions should have some direct connection with cultivators..."
On the way, they passed a tailor shop, went inside, took out two pieces of gold and threw them on the counter, exchanging them for the shop's best white robe and fire-patterned necklace.
He took off his hood and held the fire pattern in his hand.
Recalling his holy appearance when he was a half-month pilgrim, he walked with his eyes half-closed to the very center of the Divine Capital Altar.
……
No one stopped them along the way.
Even the guards at the inner city gates, or even around the palace, would only say "May the Pure Fire Venerable protect you" when they saw her, without any ill intent.
It wasn't until they arrived at the gates of a large white stone palace that resembled a church that the guards in gleaming armor finally asked her for her name.
"My name is Xi Heng." The girl feigned a calm and serene demeanor.
"We received a divine decree from the Celestial Venerable and came here to find the Sect Master."
Upon hearing this, the guard was stunned for a moment, but seeing her demeanor, he dared not doubt her and simply asked her to wait there.
A moment later, he hurriedly invited her inside.
Xi Heng stepped smoothly onto the long golden carpet on the ground and entered the white stone hall in front of him.
After walking a few steps, an elderly man dressed in simple white clothes and wearing a white hat slowly appeared at the side door of the brightly lit hall.
The other person was sitting in a plain wooden wheelchair, being pushed in by another beautiful woman with similarly light-colored hair.
In his previous life, Xi Heng had seen portraits of these two people on the pilgrimage route. The two people in front of him were the highest authority in the mortal world of this realm—the leader of the Pure Fire Sect and the Holy Maiden.
The portrait depicts a dignified and holy figure, but in reality, one does not perceive any imposing presence.
They just looked like any other elderly person with limited mobility, and his little granddaughter.
"Young lady, you say you received a divine decree from the Immortal Venerable?" the old man asked in a hoarse voice.
“Exactly.” Xi Heng gently raised his hand, causing the fire patterns on his palm to light up.
A tiny flame slowly emerged from it.
Such a technique caused the two mortal superiors before them to narrow their eyes.
"The Blazing Spirit Heavenly Law..." The Holy Maiden behind her uttered the name.
……
A day later, Xi Heng paid ten spirit stones as a reward and introduction fee, and made contact with the current Fire Prison cultivators through official channels.
The popes and saintesses in the mortal world are not ordinary people. Although they do not possess spiritual energy, they are the direct subordinates of the Pure Fire Sect Master in the cultivation world.
Because they lacked the aptitude for cultivating immortality and refining qi, they were sent by the Pure Fire Sect to manage mortals in the outside world and had a way to communicate with the cultivators inside the Spirit Locking Array.
At first, the Fire Prison cultivator on the other end of the communication did not pay attention to the affairs of the outside world, but when Xi Heng mentioned that she came from the outer realm and had a huge interdimensional flying ship with spirit stones inside as a gift, the cultivator was quite proactive in arranging everything for her in a short time.
At noon the following day, with the respectful escort of the mortal cult leader, Xi Heng stepped into the golden holy fire that led from the Divine Capital Altar to the Hellfire.
……
After a moment of disorientation caused by the flickering flames, the girl stepped out of the purifying fire and looked ahead.
What I saw this time was no longer the fairyland of the past, nor the ravaged hell.
Instead, it was a mediocre and clean town filled with natural trees.
Unlike other villages and towns, this place is unique in that it does not use white stone buildings, but instead uses natural wood to construct pavilions and terraces.
Compared to the Divine Capital's Sacred Altar, the architecture on the outskirts of this cultivation world is actually more similar to that of the Great Zhao Dynasty...
After glancing at him twice, Xi Heng looked again at the cultivator who had come to guide her.
The next moment, he froze on the spot.
"Eh?"
"Are you the one who came from the Chonghai Realm?" the other party asked at the same time, their voice delicate and gentle, like a warm breeze brushing past one's ear.
Xi Heng wanted to say no.
And she wanted to leave immediately, come back in again, and see if she could find a different guide or something...
Although she knew that she was more than ten years ago, before the Demonic Flame of Resentment was born, seeing the appearance of the person in front of her still made her subconsciously want to retreat.
Because the other party was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl with light gold hair—Yin Wanluan.
"Hmm...have we met before?" She asked, noticing Xi Heng's attempt to hide his surprise.
……
Volume 1: Chapter 179 (Chapter 172), A Dramatic Outburst
"Hmm...have we met before?"
In a remote village on the edge of the cultivation world, a girl with pure, pale golden hair was facing Xi Heng.
A thick robe in shades of pale red and pure white completely covered her body, revealing only a small part of her neck and a beautiful face.
Both hands below were covered with thin white gloves, completely concealing the wrists and forearms.
Her light golden straight hair fell in front of and behind her, cut neatly at the waist without the slightest disorder—thus lacking a sense of naturalness.
Her appearance is more similar to the dolls displayed in the glass cabinet than to a 'human'.
The tone of voice was not much different from that of the previous life, like a gentle stream, with a reassuring and refreshing quality.
As always, it subconsciously evokes a sense of friendliness in those who encounter it.
After regaining his senses, Xi Heng coughed lightly twice, covering his mouth, to calm himself before responding and denying it:
We have never met.
The person in front of me was quite different from the person in my previous life, 'Yin Wanluan'.
Although they look similar, their temperaments are all different.
Having said that, he smoothly found an excuse to cover up his initial surprise:
"I've just never seen anyone as beautiful as you before..."
This is not a lie—the other party's holy and elegant appearance is indeed more like a puppet carefully sculpted by the gods than Yin Wanluan before.
In terms of beauty, perhaps only the phantom Mi Jie that Xi Heng saw in his spiritual world could compare to the person before him.
The other party chuckled softly.
"It's quite a coincidence, I've never seen anyone like you before."
"Hmm?" Xi Heng smoothly took over the conversation:
"I guess I'm just an ordinary person."
Her imperial aura has faded, and she has returned to her most natural, solitary self.
"Can an ordinary person cross boundaries like you?" Yin Wanluan asked.
"It is possible to find the flying boats left behind by cultivators, learn how to operate them, and use spirit stones as energy to cross the void beyond the boundary. Eventually, one might even be able to find this place. This requires a great deal of effort, and ordinary people cannot do it..."
"Just good luck."
Xi Heng waved his hand.
She had already explained this to the people in the realm when she was at the sacred altar of the Pure Fire Cult in the mortal world.
She said she had obtained a relic left behind by a cultivator and came here alone, also mentioning some information about the Chonghai Realm.
"If it really was just luck, then you probably have divine assistance... Your ability to reach Hellfire may be due to a special mission."
Xi Heng tilted his head: "I just want to occupy a place in your realm to practice Qi cultivation and immortality... I have no other intentions."
"Hmm." Yin Wanluan seemed to believe her, but still said:
"All living beings cannot foresee their own destiny. Only when they make a decision on a certain day or night can they know why they came into this world and why they were born."
"..."
Xi Heng wasn't really interested in hearing such philosophical pronouncements, but since she was just a guest, she didn't argue.
After the blonde woman finished reading, her phoenix eyes swept over the group again:
"By the way, where is the flying boat now?"
"Outside the barrier, at the edge of the eastern forest," Xi Heng said casually, adding, "There are over a hundred spirit stones there; you are free to take them."
The last time she came, it was Yin Wanluan, dressed in a black robe, who addressed her as "Your Excellency".
This time, however, the tables have turned.
The other party nodded: "So willing to part with it?"
"Even if I'm reluctant, I can't go anywhere by flying boat. I just wish to find a quiet place to cultivate my Qi and become an immortal."
"Such an effort will naturally allow you to enter the formation to cultivate Qi, and even attain immortality..." Yin Wanluan, as a senior, said:
"The true path to immortality is long gone in this world. I advise you not to be obsessed with cultivating immortality, otherwise you will easily go astray and become possessed by demons."
"Who knows?" Xi Heng refused to listen.
People in this world may indeed no longer be able to cultivate immortality, but she is different.
"Heh...then it's up to you." The blonde woman chuckled softly, seemingly having heard enough of those words, and returned to the main point:
"I can take you into the formation to cultivate, but there are still prerequisites and rules that must be followed."
Xi Heng listened to the lecture following the procedure.
"As for the other rules and regulations, you can read them yourself once you enter. As long as you focus on your cultivation, you will not violate them..." She said, "There are only two things that you need to pay attention to: First, when you enter the formation, all the spiritual energy that cultivators use for cultivation is given by the Pure Fire. When your lifespan is about to end, you must step back into the Pure Fire to complete the cycle of spiritual energy."
"Secondly, there is no such thing as a rogue cultivator in this world. If you are not a descendant of the seven major sects, a successor of their inheritance, or a successor of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, you must join my Pure Fire Sect if you wish to absorb spiritual energy for cultivation," the other party said.
When Xi Heng heard this master of the Great Vengeance, who was destined to destroy the entire Pure Fire Sect, say the words "My Pure Fire Sect," he felt something was off.
"What are the members of the Pure Fire Sect required to do?" she asked.
"You only need to believe in the Pure Fire and participate in the sacrifices. Every now and then you will need to accept a mission - usually leaving the magic circle to go to the outside world to save people in distress, or taking care of spirit fields, spirit mines, etc... However, if you have enough spirit stones, you can choose not to accept the mission."
"well enough."
"However, you might have another option—a hundred years ago, there was a person from the Chonghai Realm named Shao Xi. He is now one of the Foundation Establishment Array Masters of the Wanbao Pavilion. If he cherishes his hometown and you have talent in array formations, perhaps he can directly introduce you to the Wanbao Pavilion."
This guide sent by the Fire Purification Cult doesn't seem to be particularly biased towards her organization.
Xi Heng did indeed want to learn the art of array formations, and he showed a hesitant expression.
