I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

Chapter 95: Chapter 91: Your Dream Lover Is Online

What was Lin Sha up to now, anyway?

It had been nineteen years. Had she reached the brink of the Foundation Establishment Late Stage by now? Did she have a chance at Core Formation?

She had said that she cultivated a fragmented scripture, the *Supreme Purity Emotion Scripture*.

Cultivation Techniques were classified as Arts, Decisions, and Scriptures. "Arts" usually allowed one to cultivate to Foundation Establishment, while "Decisions" often led to Golden Core or even higher.

Of course, a technique like the *Purple Qi Jade Essence Technique* was actually a Lower-Rank Technique cobbled together after the Zhongxuan Sect’s *Shangqing Purple Qi Divine Pill Creation Technique* was stolen. It had the character for "Decision" forced into its name, but in reality, it could only be cultivated to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

As for "Scriptures," it was said that every complete Scripture pointed directly to the Great Dao and could lead to Becoming an Immortal. freewebnøvel.com

According to what Du Youqian had learned from his extensive reading, only the Taihe Sect and the Holy Blood Sect in Momenan possessed complete Scriptures.

For example, the Holy Blood Sect’s Sect’s Foundation Technique was the *Crimson Scripture of Profound Mystery and Spiritual Mechanism*.

As for the "Scriptures" owned by other sects, they were usually fragmented.

Thinking of Lin Sha, Du Youqian found some of his thoughts difficult to suppress.

’Her aptitude is so good, and the Sect values her so much. They’ll definitely provide her with a Core Formation Spiritual Object. She should have a twenty or thirty percent chance of reaching Core Formation, right?’

’Did my death in my previous life have a huge impact on her?’

Seeing her hair turn white in an instant, Du Youqian was, to be honest, somewhat moved. He was also worried it would affect her path on the Dao.

But what was done was done. It was useless to dwell on it.

’For Lin Sha, and for those Great Powers in the Heavenly Emotions and Oceanic Resentments Sect who have high hopes for her, a dead Qiu Yuanqing is the best kind of Qiu Yuanqing, isn’t it?’

If he ran over to her and said, "Hello, in my past life, my name was Qiu Yuanqing, the man of your dreams."

He’d probably be pulverized into dust by a Golden Core Great Power from the Heavenly Emotions and Oceanic Resentments Sect who cultivated Divination Art before he could even finish his sentence...

’Forget it. I won’t think about it.’

「Another day passed.」

Du Youqian finished his meditative breathing and fell into quiet contemplation.

Over the past year, he often mulled over the final evaluation from his previous life.

In his last life’s final summary, he had received a B-Upper grade, earning 4 Spirit Root points.

This showed that his guesses about the evaluation system had some merit.

And his gamble in his last life—concentrating all his efforts to help Lin Sha defeat the Foundation Establishment prodigy Helan Ruojin—had paid off.

The evaluation comment, "Dragons battle in the wild, their blood black and yellow. A powerful foe is slain, a beautiful woman’s hair turns white," indicated that his battle against the Foundation Establishment Cultivator was significant in raising his evaluation.

As for the phrase, "A grass snake’s grey trail, a vein running for a thousand li. Containing brilliance, one may remain steadfast; it is favorable to cross the great river," Du Youqian didn’t fully understand it either.

He could only make a rough guess from the literal meaning that his interactions with certain important people would have far-reaching consequences for the future.

Furthermore, these consequences would eventually circle back to him as positive feedback, helping him overcome danger and navigate perils as if on flat ground.

These so-called "important people" could be the Sanxiao, Shen Miao, perhaps Lin Sha, or even Little Fatty... For now, he had no way of knowing.

In any case, making friends or mentoring juniors should also be an important way to raise his evaluation.

It was just an uncontrollable method, that’s all.

Because Du Youqian didn’t have a discerning eye for talent and couldn’t predict a person’s future development.

’Wait, I may not have Fiery Golden Eyes, but I do have Divination Art...’

Du Youqian stroked the handsome beard he had grown on his chin.

’Perhaps this is a direction to work towards in the future.’

’As for the next life, and the one after that... I won’t think too much about it for now.’

’First, I need to consider this life.’

~~~~~~~~

"HUU!" Du Youqian let out a long, turbid breath and opened his eyes.

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, just like the protagonists in an anime when they power up.

After he regulated his breathing for a while longer, the sharp glint in his eyes faded, and their light was withdrawn inward.

「Another year had passed.」

This year, Xi Mengran had cut off his supply of Elixirs.

Without the aid of Elixirs or Spirit Stones, relying solely on arduous Cultivation, he had encountered no bottlenecks whatsoever. In just one short year, he had smoothly broken through to the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, entering the Qi Cultivation Late Stage.

In his previous life, he first spent several years becoming a Martial Arts Innate Grandmaster, then another ten years cultivating. Even enjoying the preferential resource allocation of a Zhongxuan Sect True Inheritor, it had still taken him that long to reach this Realm.

’All I can say is, stirring up trouble at the end of my last life was so worth it.’

The few extra Spirit Root points didn’t seem like much, but they represented a crucial improvement.

’A Middle Grade Fire-Wind Dual Spirit Roots... Although breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm is incredibly difficult in this Land of the Dead Spirit, it’s definitely enough to cultivate to the Golden Core Realm.’

Du Youqian just never expected that instead of becoming a Golden Core Great Power of the Profound Sects Orthodox Sect, he might instead achieve this feat in a Demon Sect. Fate truly had a strange way of working things out.

The cultivation speed of a Middle Grade Fire-Wind Dual Spirit Roots was equivalent to an ordinary Upper Grade Five Elements Single Spirit Root.

The formula for cultivation speed increasing by the square of the Spirit Root value didn’t really apply after reaching the Upper Grade Spirit Root level.

For example, an Upper Grade Spirit Root with 7 points had a cultivation speed about 49 times that of a Lowerest Grade Spirit Root.

According to the formula, an 8-point Top Grade Spirit Root should have a cultivation speed 64 times that of the lowest grade.

A 10-point, perfect Celestial Spirit Root should have a cultivation speed 100 times that of the lowest grade.

But in reality, the increase wasn’t that dramatic.

Top Grade, Earth, and Celestial Spirit Roots were certainly faster than Upper Grade Spirit Roots, but not by that much.

Their wonderful uses were, one, allowing the cultivation of some special Cultivation Techniques; and two, encountering almost no bottlenecks during Cultivation and increasing the success rate of Foundation Establishment and Core Formation.

For instance, a Cultivator with a Lowerest Grade Spirit Root would usually get stuck before Foundation Establishment.

Even if they had heaven-defying luck and a mountain of resources to cultivate to Foundation Establishment Perfection, their success rate for Core Formation would be less than one in a hundred.

An ordinary Upper Grade Spirit Root Cultivator attempting Core Formation without a Core Formation Spiritual Object would likely have a success rate of less than ten percent.

But a Top Grade Spirit Root Cultivator could achieve a twenty to thirty percent success rate for Core Formation without using a Core Formation Spiritual Object.

A Celestial Spirit Root was on another level. They had a forty percent chance on their own, and with a Core Formation Spiritual Object, they might even have a sixty to seventy percent chance of success.

’So,’ Du Youqian thought, ’if I want to at least reach Core Formation in every life and then try to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm in my remaining reincarnations, I should keep working hard to stir up trouble and improve my Spirit Root.’

There was no other reason for it. The difference in Core Formation success rates between different Spirit Root qualities was just too, too vast.

In the year and a half since he entered the Holy Blood Sect, besides cultivating, Du Youqian had basically been holed up in the "library."

He didn’t need to practice Alchemy or Artifact Refining, and he couldn’t practice Magic or Swordsmanship, so reading was all he could do.

Fortunately, Xi Mengran didn’t forbid him from borrowing from the Collection Room; she only disallowed him from borrowing anything related to Cultivation Techniques, Magical Combat, Sword Fighting, and the like.

Du Youqian could use her status as an Inner Disciple to borrow books, so his borrowing range was quite broad.

And the Holy Blood Sect truly lived up to its name as the top Demon Sect; its collection of books was incredibly rich.

For example, regarding Spirit Roots. Back at the Zhongxuan Sect, Du Youqian had read almost everything in their archives, but he had only learned that the types of Spirit Roots in this world were not limited to the common Five Elements Spirit Roots; mutated Spirit Roots also existed.

But the details were scarce.

In the notes collected by the Holy Blood Sect, however, there were detailed records about Anomalous Spirit Roots.

Besides the Five Elements, there were also the "Wind" and "Thunder" Spirit Roots, which were mutations of the Five Elements.

And then there were the "Cosmic Spirit Root" and "Cosmic Spirit Root," which involved space and time and were incredibly rare and mysterious.
