I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

"Let’s split up to explore, but this place is fraught with danger, so we shouldn’t get too separated. Let’s each go five hundred zhang and then meet back here," Du Youqian suggested.

Lin Sha nodded. "Alright."

As she spoke, her bare feet tapped the ground, and her body, light as a feather, drifted away like a wisp of green smoke in the direction of the Cyan Yang Sect.

Du Youqian watched her drift into the distance before running several dozen zhang in the opposite direction. Then, he took out the object that had been constantly stirring within his Storage Treasure Pouch.

The Stone Egg.

Holding it in his hand, Du Youqian could clearly feel an intense emotion of desire coming from the Stone Egg.

He held the Stone Egg and ran a few steps in several different directions.

He finally determined that the feeling of desire from the Stone Egg was strongest when he ran toward the south, where the Demon Race was most concentrated.

Du Youqian pondered for a moment, then took out his copper coins and quickly performed a divination.

Looking at the hexagram, his eyes glazed over.

It was the "Ascending" hexagram.

Generally speaking, it was a highly auspicious sign.

He glanced at the great army of the Demon Race in the southern sky, which blotted out the sun, and the corner of his eye twitched.

’This is highly auspicious?’

However... after entering the Secret Realm, Du Youqian had regained his connection to the Thousand-Mile Shuttle.

That Thousand-Mile Shuttle Treasure was also to the south.

It was probably damaged, but as long as he supplied it with Magical Power and nurtured it a bit, he should be able to get it flying again.

’This incredibly fast Treasure might just be my hope for escaping this place.’

After thinking on the spot for a while, Du Youqian returned to the place where he had agreed to meet Lin Sha.

A short while later, he saw Lin Sha drifting back toward him.

"There are too many members of the Demon Race in the forest over there. We can’t go that way," Lin Sha said.

Her demeanor was extremely calm, without a hint of panic.

Du Youqian, on the other hand, said, "I’m going to head south and try my luck."

Lin Sha glanced at him and was about to speak when Du Youqian cut in, "Fellow Daoist Lin, you don’t have to come with me."

Lin Sha rolled her eyes at him. "Fellow Daoist Yu, please lead the way."

Du Youqian still held a sense of trust and goodwill toward Lin Sha.

If it were anyone else here, he would have definitely tricked them into coming along, then used them as a human shield upon encountering a large group of the Demon Race.

But he would never do that to Lin Sha.

So, he instead tried to persuade her otherwise. "It’s extremely dangerous over there."

Lin Sha said coolly, "I am at Foundation Establishment Perfection."

Du Youqian was left speechless.

’So what if you’re at Foundation Establishment Perfection? Is that supposed to be a big deal?’

To his alarm, Lin Sha seemed to know exactly what he was thinking. With a deadpan expression, she said, "Yes, Foundation Establishment Perfection is a big deal."

This...

That turn of phrase was not something a person of this era would come up with.

But in his past life as Qiu Yuanqing, he had made a similar joke to Lin Sha using that very phrasing.

’What is Lin Sha doing?’

’Is she hinting at something?’

’Or was it unintentional?’

Du Youqian felt his thoughts fall into disarray.

With danger lurking everywhere, he decisively stopped dwelling on it. "Then let’s go."

The two of them cautiously made their way south.

Along the way, they killed any lone, weak Demon Beasts they encountered.

If they came across powerful Demon Beasts, they would naturally take a detour to avoid them.

Fortunately, for some reason, the range of these Demon Beasts’ Divine Sense was greatly reduced. Furthermore, the most numerous and powerful ones were mostly in the air, leaving only scattered individuals on the ground.

Thus, their journey was fraught with scares but no real danger.

Inside Du Youqian’s Storage Treasure Pouch, the Stone Egg’s movements grew more and more violent. Its almost frenzied desire made Du Youqian understand that something of extreme importance to it might lie ahead.

As for what that something was?

The most likely possibility was a Demon.

Du Youqian could only hope that it wasn’t a Demon King, but an ordinary Demon Beast.

And even if it was a Demon King... it had better be one that hadn’t fully matured.

Otherwise, he would have no choice but to ignore the Stone Egg’s desire and run for his life.

As fate would have it, his worst fear was realized.

After walking another hundred zhang, Du Youqian’s body went rigid.

A soft, fragrant body bumped into him from behind.

Lin Sha let out a soft cry but didn’t curse at him.

Du Youqian didn’t dare make a sound. He gently made a hand signal: ’Fall back, fall back.’

Lin Sha was obedient enough, retreating without a sound.

Du Youqian was so nervous he didn’t dare blink, staring at a monkey-like Demon in the forest clearing ahead.

The Demon’s head was covered in white fur, which grew darker the further down its body it went.

By its feet, the fur had become as crimson as blood.

The crucial point was that this Demon was clearly within nine zhang of him—well within the range of his Divine Sense.

Yet, if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have been able to sense it at all!

And the moment his eyes fell upon the Demon, he instantly felt enveloped by a bloody aura, making it hard to breathe and causing his limbs to go weak.

This Demon was absolutely not just at the Core Formation Realm!

The Demon Race was a general term; in reality, it was divided into innumerable different species.

They were not a monolith and, just like the Human Race, were prone to internal strife.

According to human classifications, Demons with lower intelligence whose power ceiling was the Foundation Establishment Realm were typically called "Demon Beasts," indicating that they had not yet shed their bestial nature.

Those with higher intelligence, whose power ceiling could reach the Golden Core or Nascent Soul Realm, were called "Demon Kings," even if their current strength had not yet reached that limit.

Therefore, the Demon Fox zombie that Du Youqian had slain must have been a Demon King in its previous life.

And this monkey before Du Youqian was an even more terrifying Demon King!

Judging by its terrifying aura, even if all twenty-odd Core Formation cultivators from the Holy Blood Sect attacked it together, it would probably swat them away one by one.

And this Demon King was not standing alone.

It was surrounded by several other monkey-like Demons of lower Realms—some Foundation Establishment, some Golden Core—as well as a pack of jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards, all Demon Beasts.

’Thankfully, they don’t seem to have noticed me.’

Du Youqian didn’t even entertain the thought of making a move.

He and Lin Sha held their breath, not wanting to alert them. They retreated into the woods and then fled rapidly in the direction of the Thousand-Mile Shuttle.

The only plan now was to find the Thousand-Mile Shuttle as quickly as possible and then find a way to leave these Blessed Land Relics.

Just as they had taken a few steps, their vision suddenly blurred.

When they came to their senses, they found themselves in the forest clearing, standing before the white-furred monkey, surrounded by a host of Demon Beasts and Demon Kings eyeing them menacingly.

The monkey with the white-furred head and crimson feet sized up Du Youqian and Lin Sha with a gaze full of wisdom and intellect.

Finally, its gaze landed on Du Youqian’s waist.

With a *PUFF*, Du Youqian’s Storage Treasure Pouch opened on its own, and the Stone Egg flew out, landing in the monkey’s palm.

Du Youqian had never imagined that the Storage Treasure Pouch he had personally refined could be opened so easily by another being!

The Monkey Demon King’s gaze seemed affectionate as it engaged in a silent communion with the Stone Egg.

After a long moment, it spoke in the language of the Human Race. "So, that’s how it is."

Its accent was a bit strange, but overall, its pronunciation was quite accurate.

For a member of the Demon Race, this was remarkably commendable.

"Little thing from ten thousand years in the future... What harm is there in helping you?"

As it spoke, the monkey’s face turned crimson. It opened its mouth and spat out a few drops of Essence Blood, which landed on the Stone Egg.

Du Youqian’s heart trembled. This Monkey Demon King, suspected to be at or above the Nascent Soul Realm, wasn’t spitting out ordinary blood. It was its heart’s Essence Blood, a condensation of its life’s Essence Qi and Cultivation.

Every drop spat out was a drop lost, incredibly difficult to replenish.

The essence contained in even a single drop of Essence Blood from this Monkey Demon King was far greater than all the nutritional fluids Du Youqian had concocted over the years combined.

As for the small life within the Stone Egg, Du Youqian now had a pretty good idea of what it was.

If it wasn’t a monkey in there, Du Youqian would eat his hat.

A monkey from a stone!

How majestic would it be when it finally burst out of the stone?

’Just thinking about it is exciting!’

It even made Du Youqian briefly forget that the Human Race and Demon Race were irreconcilable enemies, and that he himself was in grave danger.

After the Stone Egg absorbed all the Essence Blood at a visible rate, the Monkey Demon King pushed it back toward Du Youqian.

Du Youqian accepted it with some trepidation.

"Human boy, treat it well. Do not try to enslave it. The Great Sage Bloodline can never be enslaved."

’Great Sage Bloodline?’ Du Youqian’s heart stirred.

The scriptures he had read mentioned that within the Demon Race, there was an existence even above that of a Demon King: the Great Saint.

However, the records were few and lacked detail.

’Is this an unhatched Great Sage Bloodline in the Stone Egg?’

An image involuntarily surfaced in Du Youqian’s mind: the rebellious figure from the myths, wearing a Phoenix Wing Purple Gold Crown, shod in Lotus Silk Cloud-Stepping Shoes, draped in Locking Golden Armor, and wielding the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, who beat the gods and buddhas of the heavens until they cried for their mothers.

’Could it be that kind of Great Saint?’

"I will be its friend," Du Youqian said.

He breathed a sigh of relief, figuring he probably wouldn’t die here today.

"A friend?" The Monkey Demon King’s gaze turned somewhat wistful.

It stared at Du Youqian, yet it wasn’t really looking at him.

Instead, it seemed to see the shadow of another in him.

"I hope so."

With that, the Monkey Demon King glanced back and, with a casual wave of its claw, a smaller monkey with crimson eyes cried out in sorrow as it was pulled involuntarily into the King’s grasp.

The Monkey Demon King simply squeezed, and the Core Formation Realm monkey in its palm—also a Demon King—was instantly turned to pulp with a wet *SPLAT*.

A Demon King at the Core Formation Realm was so utterly defenseless before this Monkey Demon King.

The normal gap between a Nascent Soul and a Core Formation cultivator wasn’t this massive!

The Monkey Demon King opened its palm, and a tomato-sized Demon Core glowing with a faint blue light slowly floated toward Du Youqian.

"Human boy, a gift for you."

Du Youqian accepted the Demon Core and thanked it solemnly.

"Go. Something big is about to happen here. You should leave as soon as possible," the Monkey Demon King said.

Lin Sha was clearly standing right behind Du Youqian, but the Demon King seemed not to see her at all, its pupils reflecting only Du Youqian’s figure.

Du Youqian thanked it again, then grabbed Lin Sha and quickly departed.

The Monkey Demon King’s gaze followed Du Youqian for a moment before turning once again toward the distant Cyan Yang Sect.

"Has it been ten thousand years already...? So, I’m already dead..."

Its body, and the bodies of the Demon Race guards beside it, all gradually underwent Voidification.

A gentle breeze blew past, and they vanished with the wind, leaving not a single trace behind.
