Infinite Save: I Cultivate Immortality Through Reincarnation

It is not a condition that one must have perished due to the Wear and Tear of the Great Dao; it is merely one of the prerequisites for an Immortal Ascension Realm cultivator to undergo reincarnation and resume cultivation.

The conditions for an Immortal Ascension Realm cultivator to cultivate a method of reincarnation are, in fact, extremely stringent.

The order to retrieve the Dao Basis of either Realman Sun and Moon or Realman Star-Paying Respects was issued by Star Heaven Sect’s Supreme Pivot Elder, Gu Jiancheng.

He wishes to attempt to continue his assault on Immortal Ascension by comprehending the Dao Basis left by the sect’s Ascension Patriarchs.

Despite the immense risks involved, Gu Jiancheng believes he has no other path of retreat left. There are only three years remaining until the next Dao Inquiry Assembly of Chenping Continent.

This will also be the first Dao Inquiry Assembly of Chenping Continent since the Great Dao recovered.

If nothing unexpected occurs, the Immortal Ascension Realm cultivators from the other four great sects will participate in this assembly and make personal appearances.

If such an event truly transpires, then from that point onward, Star Heaven Sect’s standing within the Chenping Continent’s cultivation world will undoubtedly be relegated to a tier below that of the other four great sects.

This will mark the beginning of Star Heaven Sect’s decline.

For Gu Jiancheng, hoping to step into the Immortal Ascension Realm within three years is a prospect with almost no hope, utterly impossible even if he could comprehend the Dao Basis of Patriarch Star-Paying Respects or Patriarch Sun and Moon.

However, if he could manage to enter the Immortal Ascension Realm, he could, to a certain extent, halt the trend of Star Heaven Sect’s decline.

As for the matter of searching for the Dao Basis left behind in the mortal world by Patriarch Sun and Moon and Patriarch Star-Paying Respects, it originally shouldn’t have fallen under Qin Qingyu’s responsibility. She proactively took this task upon herself.

Because aside from searching for the Dao Basis, she had another objective.

Kongshan Sect’s former chief disciple of Kongyuan Mountain, Chen Yan, is currently in the Southern Region of Chenping Continent.

This was the news Xiao Bo’an had told her back then.

Qin Qingyu didn’t know much about Xiao Bo’an either. She only knew that this elusive cultivator from the Weaving Dreams Tower now seemed to have completely severed ties with the Mirage Palace and was instead mingling with that reincarnated Ascended One from Heavenly Summit Mountain.

As for the news that Chen Yan was still alive…

From the first moment she heard Xiao Bo’an mention it, she had never once doubted the authenticity of this information.

Chen Yan would definitely not die so simply. This wasn’t merely Qin Qingyu’s intuition.

Back on Heavenly Summit Mountain, she had once crossed hands with this former chief disciple of Kongyuan Mountain.

The feeling Chen Yan gave Qin Qingyu was different from any other heaven-chosen talent on the Chenping Continent.

Moreover, when the Heavenly Summit Mountain Cataclysm occurred, she witnessed with her own eyes a wisp of spiritual energy burst from the fingertips of this former chief disciple of Kongyuan Mountain.

And then, later, the Black Flood Dragon Remnant Soul…

At that moment, Qin Qingyu immediately realized the situation was amiss. If she didn’t flee quickly, the people of Kongshan Sect would definitely not let her off easily. She promptly and decisively chose to make a swift escape.

One year after the Heavenly Summit Mountain Cataclysm, Qin Qingyu heard about Kongshan Sect’s Outer Court Cataclysm and the news of Chen Yan’s death.

Even then, Qin Qingyu harbored doubts about the veracity of Chen Yan’s reported demise.

Qin Qingyu wanted to find Chen Yan because this former chief disciple of Kongyuan Mountain would likely play a significant role in the future upheavals within the Chenping Continent’s cultivation world.

“There is one more matter, Elder Qin.”

Just as Qin Qingyu was lost in her thoughts, the Moon Void Sect disciple standing at the entrance of the Moonlight Pavilion spoke up again, addressing her direction.

“What is it?”

Qin Qingyu asked.

“Kongshan Sect’s Chu Xiyao, Elder Chu, arrived at the Moon Void Sect’s reception hall half an incense stick of time ago. She wishes to see you.”

…

Chu Xiyao.

This familiar name sent ripples spreading across the tranquil lake of Qin Qingyu’s heart.

There was a time when Chu Xiyao was her greatest rival within the Chenping Continent’s cultivation world.

But now, judging by Chu Xiyao’s current cultivation speed, by the time Qin Qingyu herself broke through to the upper three realms, Chu Xiyao might not even have stepped into the Myriad Transformations Realm.

Each generation produces its own talents.

The heaven-chosen talents of the Five Great Sects are replaced batch after batch. Those cultivation geniuses renowned throughout the Chenping Continent’s cultivation world are almost entirely refreshed every five years.

Yet now, Chu Xiyao’s name has begun to resonate loudly once more. News about her can be heard from time to time.

This is because Chu Xiyao is currently heavily favored and relied upon by Kongshan Sect’s Qingchan Peak Sword Master Elder, Zhong Yin.

In the current Chenping Continent cultivation world, if one were to ask which name among the few present Immortal Ascension Realm cultivators causes the most fear upon being heard, it would undoubtedly be the name of True Person Caiyun, Kong Yang.

The world had long forgotten the might of an Ascended One.

With just that one statement, Kongshan Sect launched a massive campaign of conquest against numerous cultivation sects in the Northwestern Region of Chenping Continent.

The mountain gates of many sects that had previously held grudges against Kongshan Sect were razed to the ground.

Simultaneously, Kongshan Sect’s own losses were not insignificant. Cultivators at the Spirit Connection Realm and above numbered nearly twenty casualties, and those below the Spirit Connection Realm were too numerous to count.

Yet these losses still fell within Kongshan Sect’s capacity to bear. Even if the losses multiplied several times over, Kongshan Sect’s sheer scale could completely absorb them.

While Kong Yang was establishing his authority for the world to see, he was also using these campaigns and battles to temper and select talents for Kongshan Sect.

Individuals like the current Qingchan Peak Sword Master Elder Zhong Yin, as well as Li Haowen, Chu Xiyao, and others, were all talents promoted by Kong Yang through the hands of Yun Yichen.

Although Kongshan Sect suffered considerable losses, it is foreseeable that in the coming decades, Kongshan Sect’s growth speed will likely far exceed its growth over the past several hundred years.

Qin Qingyu walked leisurely out of the Moonlight Pavilion and headed towards the Moon Void Sect’s reception hall.

There, she saw that still ice-cold figure, clad in pure white robes, with cascading black hair like a waterfall.

Her appearance hadn’t changed much from over a decade ago, still bearing that same peerlessly beautiful yet aloof maiden’s face.

“Elder Qin.”

Seeing Qin Qingyu appear at the entrance of the reception hall, Chu Xiyao stood up and bowed respectfully in her direction.

“Elder Chu, you are too courteous.”

Qin Qingyu said with a light laugh, walking unhurriedly to the chair beside Chu Xiyao and sitting down:

“Elder Chu and I probably haven’t seen each other for over a decade. I recall our last meeting was at the Dao Inquiry Assembly of Chenping Continent seventeen years ago.”

The Dao Inquiry Assembly of Chenping Continent seventeen years ago held no fond memories for any cultivator.

“Might I inquire as to the purpose of Elder Chu’s special visit to my Star Heaven Sect this time?”

Qin Qingyu continued.

“Elder Qin, my visit to Star Heaven Sect this time is by the order of my Kongshan Sect’s current presiding authority, True Person Caiyun, Patriarch Kong.”

Chu Xiyao stated calmly.

“True Person Kong?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Qingyu’s expression shifted slightly. Even with her exceptional talent, hearing the title of an Immortal Ascension Realm cultivator couldn’t prevent waves from stirring within her heart.

“Yes. Patriarch Kong says that he has prepared a great gift for Star Heaven Sect.”

“I am all ears.”

“The Dao Basis of your esteemed sect’s Realman Sun and Moon.”

Chu Xiyao said.
