Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

“Alright, but there are other cultivators at the trading market who can create spatial magic items, so it's probably not possible to monopolize a single type of commodity like it was in Changping Capital.” The girl casually mentioned.

"It's just a small shop, so we focus on the style," Yin Wanluan said. "If the products are made nicely and the price is similar to storage bags with similar capabilities, they will naturally have some customers."

Xi Heng nodded and wished him the best.

Then, watching the other person carefully work on the project, she brought up another topic: "Speaking of which, I didn't expect to finish the work in just three days and be back now."

"I've got it," the other person said, while pinching the Phoenix Talisman characters.

"Tsk, can Wan Luan guess what I'm going to do next?"

"Please don't bother me too much until it's finished." The other person looked helpless.

"Oh, it should be finished soon, right?"

"It will take some time to adjust the many pattern elements to perfection before it can be considered complete." Yin Wanluan's hands were still meticulously manipulating the design.

"Perfect? ​​That feels like it'll take a long time." Xi Heng's hand, which was resting on the other's shoulder, slowly slid down.

"You should also do something productive, like cultivation."

“But when I go into seclusion, many years pass by.” She pouted.

“For cultivators like you and me, age doesn’t matter; what matters is that our sincerity remains,” Yin Wanluan said gently.

"Is it true..."

These two words evoked a long-forgotten memory for Xi Heng.

Back in the Sword Academy, after exchanging swords with Senior Sister Hongmiao, I heard her utter the words "true love".

The next question seemed to be, "When did you ever have any feelings for me?"

Love, sincerity—even now, Xi Heng still struggles to understand what these concepts truly mean.

Even if you can't tell the difference, shouldn't you still be considered to have some genuine feelings?

The girl's thoughts wavered for a moment, but in the end she simply tilted her head and put the matter aside.

Back to the present, I watched Yin Wanluan's gameplay for a while longer.

After chatting for a few more minutes, they naturally parted ways.

He opened the map to observe the location of the training room, and arrived at the room after a spatial fluctuation.

Yin Wanluan also marked the two cultivation rooms on the top floor, writing down their layout and the ingredients for the spiritual incense.

As Xi Heng pushed open the door on the left, a rich, incense-like scent wafted to his nose.

Upon entering, one's mind naturally adjusts to a state of cultivation.

Then he sat quietly deep inside the room and took out the spirit mirror from the lines on the back of his hand.

I first randomly clicked on a few other options, such as Luck Chest, Secret Realm, Imaginary Number Level, Treasure Basin, Cultivation Space, Special Amplification, Enhancement, and so on.

These game-like buttons failed to pique her interest; she glanced at them casually and then opened the in-game store.

Searching for the word "time," their gaze fell upon the Time Stone, which cost ten thousand True Spirit Points.

Clicking "Buy" caused the store interface to transform into a burst of light, which coalesced into a thumb-sized, oval-shaped gold stone in front of her.

Its surface has many flaws such as cracks and horizontal lines, all of which are signs of wear and tear, and it does not look like an expensive item.

It looks like gold, but is deeper and darker than gold.

Upon expanding one's spiritual awareness, a glimmer of light could be seen within, the nature of which was unknown.

When Xi Heng reached out and grasped it, a chill ran through his body from his palm.

At the same time, there is a fluid-like sensation that disturbs the palm of the hand, which is the power of time.

"As expected, there is indeed a considerable amount of time power within it..." the girl muttered to herself. "However, the power is not pure; there are clearly some things in the stone that are unrelated to time."

"This chaotic time cannot be absorbed directly; it needs to be carefully refined."

"Then let's take it slow."

A white flame emerged from Xi Heng's palm, enveloping the Time Stone.

He closed his eyes and calmed himself, focusing only on the sense of time flowing within the stone, and no longer paying attention to anything else.

After twenty-four days, he began to subtly manipulate the time within, using a small amount of time attribute within his own body to cause the light in the stone to emerge, accompanied by the flow of spiritual fire into his body.

The spiritual energy within his body fluctuated, strands of hair rising and falling in an instant, and time in the room seemed to become discontinuous and chaotic.

Time flows normally in the outside world, the sun sets and the moon rises, day and night alternate.

In Xi Heng's cultivation room, time seemed to pass strangely.

The incense sticks would occasionally lose a piece, requiring frequent replacement and filling; dust would appear and disappear, and the ethereal light would flicker like a dream.

Although its own body continues to cultivate naturally like a statue, its surroundings are constantly changing.

Amidst this chaotic and out-of-control situation, Xi Heng used his own time to extract a wisp of the disordered time within the room and contained it within his body during the circulation of his internal energy.

This cycle repeats itself, gradually increasing the amount of time within the body while dispelling the chaos in the external world.

The faint light blended into the white phoenix spirit fire, inexplicably carving out a few distorted strokes.

At first glance, the strokes appear to be just naturally occurring twists.

Over time, the strokes became more and more numerous, resembling a special kind of script or talisman.

The girl spared a few moments from her long period of cultivation to examine this peculiar pattern.

A moment later, it was recognized that this pattern had been mentioned in the "Sun and Moon Selfless Ten Thousand Zhang Technique" and had also been engraved on the surface of the Supreme Heavenly Wood Palace of Senluo.

"Dragon-patterned script..."

Each character has a distinctly curved dragon shape, which can evoke some associations with dragons even in ordinary people who have never cultivated themselves.

Back in Changping, at the height of the capital, that Nascent Soul elder had recounted that, just as the Phoenix Scroll script manipulates space, the Dragon Scroll script can also control time to a certain extent.

When Xi Heng tried the power of time before, he simply activated it directly.

Using dragon-shaped characters in this way could significantly enhance the effect.

She then wrote down the various words that appeared in the glimmer of time, intending to try to use them later.

In addition, it continues to circulate its energy, absorbing time from the mottled and chaotic metal and stone.

At the same time, external spiritual energy also flows into the body under the guidance of the essence of heaven and earth.

Xi Heng's current body is formed from a rich blend of the essence of heaven and earth and the true power of the Nascent Soul stage. Even without cultivation, spiritual power will spontaneously flow from him.

While cultivating other abilities, my cultivation level is also improving at a fast pace.

Gradually, the deep gold on the surface of the Time Stone turned into a lighter color.

After ten years of seclusion, the light gold color has turned into a simple, rough white.

Its internal glimmer disappeared, the power of time had been completely refined, and the entire Time Stone's value plummeted, leaving only a faint glowing effect.

Xi Heng finally ended his cultivation, sensing the flow of time within his body, and slowly opened his eyes.

At this point, the incense used indoors to aid in meditation had burned out.

The girl looked at the spot where the incense was burning, used the power of time to gather it at her fingertips, and gently touched it.

A few seconds later, the small piece of incense seemed to turn back time and returned to its original, complete state.

The incense stick is lit, and white flames rise upwards.

The familiar fragrance returned, and Xi Heng took a short breath, nodding to himself:

"Indeed, the power of time is now much stronger than when it only had a few elements."

Previously, her time-manipulation techniques could only slow down time in a small area around her, and the reduction was only about 10%.

Having now absorbed the entire Time Stone, it is possible to stop time on a small scale, or restore time to normal, as it did just now.

The used incense can be reused, and the fruit pit can be transformed into a complete fruit shape.

Spilled water can be retrieved, and rotten things can be renewed.

—With the power of time, these things that are normally impossible can be accomplished.

After exiting his cultivation state and standing up, Xi Heng took out a spiritual weapon of Foundation Establishment level or higher from his inventory and tried it out.

Sending the power of time to reverse it is indeed much more difficult than burning incense.

Even with considerable effort, it could only be turned forward for two months.

Just now, she used only a little power to reverse the burning incense for ten years.

"The higher the target's grade, the harder it is to reverse its time... The time power consumed will increase exponentially," Xi Heng murmured to himself.

"If it's possible to reverse the time of a single object, how much power of time would be needed to travel through time at will like a system, or to freeze the entire world?"

The more Xi Heng understood the concept of time, the clearer he became about just how powerful his save file reading ability truly was.

With its current time-related abilities, it can at most pause the time within a radius of several tens of meters.

It lasted for a few days, but only for about ten minutes.

However, the pause during system saves directly affects the entire world.

It's not even clear whether the pause applies to a single realm or extends to the entire boundless void...

"If that pause is triggered by the power of time, just how vast is the system's time span?"

"Or perhaps the time pause during saving and the pause caused by the power of time are two completely different logics?"

Xi Heng stood there for a moment, lost in thought, when he suddenly remembered something scientific: it was said that if an individual reached the speed of light, they could achieve something similar to stopping time.

Perhaps the power of time and the power used by the system's cycle of time are two completely different forces...

Or perhaps, reloading a save file simply represents a qualitative change in the course of time, a way of cyclical time travel that one cannot yet comprehend.

After a long silence, it is ultimately difficult to arrive at an answer when faced with the complex concept of time.

After pressing his temples, he finally brought his thoughts back to the present moment.

With a spatial fluctuation, Xi Heng suddenly returned to the main hall below.

Yin Wanluan, now dressed in a more splendid outfit, was still working in the palace.

The main hall itself has also been transformed. The beams and pillars are decorated with white phoenixes in gold thread, and a red carpet has been laid out. Various cabinets and cupboards of different sizes are placed around the hall, displaying a variety of miscellaneous items.

Xi Heng glanced at them and saw that most of them were drawings or design tools.

There are also many overly exquisite costumes draped over pure white dolls, some of which are not yet finished, half of them ornate and half of them plain.

She suddenly felt a sense of time distortion.

It took me a while to realize that it had been ten years since I last visited this place.

"My sense of time is really weak..." the girl muttered to herself.

The sound drew Yin Wanluan's attention, who was still working on something. Seeing that she had finally emerged from seclusion, he smiled.

"You've been in seclusion for quite a while."

"I didn't really notice, ten years have passed in the blink of an eye..." Xi Heng shook his head and asked, "Are you still designing products?"

“That’s right.” Yin Wanluan showed off her work, demonstrating how she was using her spiritual light to magnify her vision and meticulously crafting a ring design.

"However, it is different from the first production ten years ago. The third product I launched back then received a lot of attention and attracted an order from a large merchant guild. After that, I no longer focused on small shops in the trading district, but specialized in this kind of design and creation."

As she spoke, she pointed to a magnificent lapis lazuli robe next to her, with landscapes, flowers, birds, clouds and mist painted on the hem, as well as fine piping and tassels made of jewels.

"This item was ordered by Tianlu Trading Company, with a deposit of 23,000 True Spirit Points paid," the other party said simply.

"Twenty-three thousand?" Xi Heng was momentarily dazed.

Even as a Nascent Soul cultivator, I only earn about five thousand coins per mission...

"If this style sells well in the future, we can get a small share of the profits from each piece, but not much." Yin Wanluan was in a good mood when she saw Xi Heng return, and she had a lot to say.

"So amazing..." The white-haired girl blinked repeatedly, took small steps closer, and pressed her shoulder against the other person's.

Then, while continuing to make the ring in her hand, Miss Wanluan slowly told Xiheng about her experiences and career achievements over the past ten years, sometimes laughing and sometimes sighing.

Xi Heng listened attentively, nodding in response.

Although time changes and everything changes, the feelings and affection between the two of them remain unchanged.

During their casual conversation, Yin Wanluan suddenly chuckled:
