Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

"You'll have to pay with the spirit core, and I'll give you two hundred change." She remembered that the other party hadn't registered an account yet, so she ran to the drawer next to her, took out a small, light green crystal core, and tossed it to them.

"Ah."

"Transaction complete. Here, take this." The red-haired woman clapped her hands and then magically produced a card by flicking her wrist, handing it to you.

The girl in black and gray took it and saw that it was a business card with fine lines printed on it and contact information attached.

She read aloud, "Qian Dan, Spirit Body Array Programmer, can solve technical problems below the third tier, change the spirit body circuitry, and modify the array patterns within the body. Recently, she's been getting her hair dyed..."

"I bought too much hair dye before." The other person yawned.

"Leave your name here too. Since you're a bounty hunter, I might need to contact you later."

"..." Jin You hesitated for a moment, she hadn't decided what name she wanted to change to.

Xi Heng's figure reappeared, looking at the short-haired girl with black and gray hair, and the beast tooth mask covering her mouth and nose, making her look like a ghost.

“Prajna,” she said softly.

Upon hearing this, Jin You didn't think much of it and just blurted it out.

"A strange name." Qian Dan didn't read it aloud and simply waved her hand, saying, "Thank you for your patronage, I'll come again next time."

Then, he reached out and led her toward the door.

After a few steps, Jin You retreated outside, only to find that it was even darker outside than inside.

"It's getting dark. Would you like me to help you find a place to stay?" Qian Dan glanced outside.

"No need." Jin You recovered her senses: "I still need to tidy up my spirit body. Let me introduce you to a shop."

"Didn't you say you were out of money?" the other person asked casually.

"Bounty hunters always have some tricks up their sleeves."

"You're very experienced. I'll feel more at ease having you handle things in the future." Qian Dan raised her finger and sent a spiritual light, indicating a location: "This is the only spiritual body shop around here with average prices and decent skills. Go there."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and closed the door, leaving Jin You alone in the night and darkness.

The black-and-gray-haired girl turned and left, saying to the white-haired girl who was always by her side as she went down the stairs, "This guy is a bit difficult to deal with."

"no feelings."

"The way she looks at me always gives me the feeling that she has ulterior motives," Jin You said after a moment's thought. "It's like... a lesbian relationship."

Xi Heng suddenly paused.

After a couple of quick sounds, he simply said, "I didn't feel anything."

“That’s because you weren’t there.” The dark gray-haired girl sighed softly. “Speaking of which, what did you mean by Prajna just now?”

"The meaning of wisdom in Buddhism."

"I always felt there was another meaning behind it." Jin You trusted his sixth sense.

“In my world there was a demon named Prajna, whose ferocious appearance was similar to the mask with a mouth and nose that you are wearing now, so I subconsciously gave him this name.”

"A demon... that's not so bad as a bounty hunter's name." The other party readily agreed.

Her main goal right now is to make money, at least to make her body, which is currently in such a dilapidated state, somewhat whole again. She has no interest in spending time on things like appearance.

"What's next?" Xi Heng asked casually.

"Making money... but before that, I need to register a new account, then go to the spirit shop to balance and repair my spirit, and I also need to buy another left arm."

Having two legs of different levels is really hard to adapt to with just one right hand.

"Do you still have money?"

"A loan, I guess." The word "money" made her sigh softly again.

Jin You adjusted his mask, coughed twice to calm himself down, and then went to the nearest public communication facility to register his new account.

Right after registering, I immediately mortgaged my liver to a lending company. The liver, which was originally worth 2,100 yuan, only yielded 1,500 yuan after deducting the upfront interest, service fees, and overdue risk reserve. I still have to repay 2,000 yuan of principal plus interest.

Having given up, she hurriedly ran back to the spirit body shop recommended by the red-haired woman, upgraded her level one spirit body prosthetic leg to level two, and adjusted and balanced it with another spirit body.

Before I even started choosing a new left arm, I only had 200 yuan left out of 1,500.

"Money is becoming less and less valuable..." Jin You had no choice but to mortgage her heart as well, borrowing 3,500 yuan to install a decent gray-white left arm.

After some adjustments, only 1,200 yuan remained.

After leaving the spirit shop, they went to a nearby weapon shop and bought three single-shot flying devices, three spirit-breaking golden needles, two fire magic pills, one fog-blocking talisman, and three consciousness-stimulating pills.

After the trip, only about a hundred yuan remained in the account, jingling in the background.

"They've spent so quickly," Xi Heng remarked after seeing the money.

"Money is something that disappears quickly." Now fully armed, Jin You has changed his appearance, with a sharper look in his eyes, and his original ruthless killing aura has finally reappeared.

The girl extended her newly installed left hand from her gray long sleeve. The light gray left hand moved so quickly that it left afterimages, and it was even more light and convenient than her own fleshy hand.

She nodded in satisfaction, took out a single-shot aircraft from her waist, and twirled it between her fingers, increasing the speed until it even made a whooshing sound.

"Shouldn't you buy me some information on array formations?" Xi Heng asked.

"The bookstore is just ahead." The girl with dark gray hair put her hands in the pockets of her gray robe and went inside.

There were no customers in the shop, and no bookshelves. There were only many tables and a glass shelf that looked like a specimen rack, filled with many tiny leaves.

Jin You bought a micro array leaf containing the basics of array formations, inserted it into his special reading desk, and sat on the left to slowly flip through it.

At first, the page turning was slow, but with Xi Heng's reminder, the speed gradually increased to one page every three seconds, and then back to one page per second.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Xi Heng had memorized the entire rather thick "Introduction to Basic Array Dao" with his divine sense, which then transformed into the form of a book and landed in the hands of the white-haired phantom, who quietly flipped through it.

Jin Youze removed the micro-array blades from the table, returned to the counter, paid the five-yuan rent, and left.

She didn't disturb Xi Heng, who was focused on reading, but instead used the new account to call the contact information of the new broker she had obtained from Zhou Tai's gang.

With two or three resounding Buddhist chants, an image of a bald monk, whose skin had also been transformed into a silver-white form and who bore six ordination scars on his head, appeared before me. He clasped his hands together and said:

"You must be the person Zhou Xuanwu introduced today. With such a sharp and ruthless demeanor, you are surely not a minor character who will die easily. Well done."

"Is there any work?" Jin You asked directly.

"Yes, but I always make it a habit to meet the newcomer in person before assigning tasks. I wonder if you have the time?"

"As long as there's work, there's work."

"The coordinates have been sent. This humble monk will be retiring at 9 PM. Please hurry." He bowed his head, murmured "Amitabha," and then disconnected the communication.

"What a nuisance. There are still people who go to bed at nine o'clock these days." Jin You complained as she looked at the closed communication interface, then opened the array map and marked the coordinates.

Seeing that the distance wasn't far and there was still plenty of time, he turned around and walked away.

Walking along the road past large areas of abandoned houses and unfinished buildings resembling skeletons, a dilapidated temple emerges from the darkness in the distance.

The temple was bathed in a pure white light, and the entrance hall was wide open, clearly waiting for someone.

However, the surrounding abandoned houses are almost uninhabited, and are filled with all sorts of garbage thrown from who-knows-where.

The temple was completely surrounded by ruins and garbage dumps, with not even a single golden tree in sight; it was pitch black.

"It's a bit eerie..." She silently pulled out a single-shot aircraft, becoming even more wary.

As she slowly walked into the only brightly lit temple, her footsteps had just crossed the threshold and landed on the broken bricks when suddenly a grappling hook rattled from the distant courtyard wall, and an iron chain with the ability to chase her flew towards her.

Jin You's eyes flashed, and the flying device he was holding in his right hand shot out straight, shattering the middle of the iron chain.

With a claw from its left arm, the spirit grabbed the flying rope head in its hand.

She glanced at the model of the grappling hook, then immediately turned around and flung it back, sending it crashing through the wall and striking the attacker.

The figure was struck, made a thud, and fell to the ground, motionless.

"It looks like a puppet..."

Xi Heng, who had been reading a book to the side, glanced over and asked, "Were you attacked?"

"It's just a test by the broker. Some old-school brokers often do this, especially when new bounty hunters are new to the area and have no backing."

As soon as she finished speaking, a steady, uniform mechanical clapping sound echoed from deep within the temple.

A lone monk with silver-gray skin, dressed in a tattered yellow robe, approached, clasped his hands together, and bowed, saying:

"Your strength is not weak, I was just being overly suspicious, please forgive me."

"Just reimburse me for the single-engine aircraft I just used. And what about the job?" the girl got straight to the point.

"The mission is for tomorrow, specifically to intercept a meat-carrying boat belonging to the Living Killing Hall and retrieve a kitten from its rear."

"A cat?" Jin You's lips twitched.

"I never imagined I'd get a job like this, finding a cat for a rich person..."

The bald monk said calmly, "This is no ordinary bald cat; it is a spirit beast and must be treated with care."

"A spirit beast, and a cat-shaped one at that. These things are valuable... The reward must be quite substantial, right?"

“Three thousand chakras.” After saying that, the other person said Amitabha.

“That’s too little.” Xi Heng shook his head from the side: “It’s not even enough for you to redeem your heart.”

"That's how it is when you're risking your life. Before you make a name for yourself, a reward of three thousand is already quite good." After responding with his innermost thoughts, Jin You spoke earnestly:

"received."

Volume 1: Chapter 263, Winning Hearts and Squeezing Throats

The next morning.

Jin You managed to rest for one night in an empty room in the temple. After getting up, he frowned and swallowed a filling pill. He then took the money reimbursed by the silver-skinned monk and went out to buy a single-shot aircraft.

Upon returning, the time for the operation was fast approaching. The bald monk brought two bounty hunters who were also involved in the operation to the temple to meet her.

The two newcomers included a short, one-armed man with shoulder-length hair who looked young and wore a planar array interaction mirror commonly used by black array masters. The mirror surface shimmered slightly, as if it were scanning something.

The other person was a woman with a long, single ponytail carrying a backpack, dressed in close-fitting clothes for easy movement, with two kinds of medical equipment attached to her waist, a black eye patch over one eye, and a cigarette dangling from her mouth.

When Jin You arrived, he frowned after only a couple of glances: "These two are my team members for today's job?"

“That’s right.” The monk put his hands together in a wai (a gesture of respect) and adopted a kind expression as he introduced the monk to everyone:

"This young black array master is named Ayao. She is a ranged fighter and healer with a long whip. There aren't many people like her who can take care of two positions at the same time. And this main fighter is the Prajna I mentioned. Her strength is quite good."

He then added, “This is the first time you’ve taken on a job with me. I don’t expect you to be united, but please cooperate during the trip.”

"A black array master with only one hand, a sniper with one eye... You've really put together some decent people, bald guy," Jin You said coldly.

"Don't underestimate them. Since I have chosen the three of you, it is because I believe you can complete this task," the monk said.

"Little brat." The woman named Long Whip stared at her and whispered, "Just how capable are you?"

"Even ten of you wouldn't be enough for me to kill with one hand," Jin You glanced at him.

"Shall we go out and practice?"

"Okay." The gray-haired girl pulled a flying device from her sleeve.

Seeing this, the black array master quickly raised his hand: "The people have already been decided, and the mission time is tight. Since we can't change it, how about we finish the mission first and then discuss other things?"

"Esteemed guests, the boat is ready. Let's not waste any more time."

The monk pointed one hand out of the temple and then raised the other hand to his chest and chanted "Amitabha."

Jin Youtong exchanged a distant glance with that one-eyed man, then turned and walked towards the location of the dispatch boat.

The fierce look in Changbian's eyes gradually subsided. He glanced at the black array master beside him twice and then left the scene.

The array master exhaled, clutching his chest, and barely managed to keep up.

As the three of them boarded the small boat and slowly sailed through the ruined roads, Xi Heng's phantom suddenly sat down next to Jin You, his gaze shifting from the book in his hand, and casually asked a question.

"My teammates weren't very good this time either?"

"No, they're alright." Jin You responded in his mind: "From the perspective of bounty hunters forming teams freely, these two aren't that bad."

"Well, given your personality, you must have argued with quite a few teammates before, and even gotten into real fights, right?" Xi Heng clicked his tongue.

“Bounty hunters are all like this.” The gray-haired girl closed her eyes for a moment before replying, “If you don’t act assertively when you’re in a team, someone will always take advantage of you later. The important thing in our line of work is to complete the mission… As long as the mission is completed successfully, no matter how strange your personality is, you’ll be popular.”

"Oh." Xi Heng wasn't very interested in these intricacies and continued reading the book about array formations in his hand.

"How well have you learned the art of array formations?" the other party asked in return.
