I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

As two palace maids cried out, "The Grand Empress Dowager has passed away!", Du Youqian stood by, invisible, watching quietly.

When a grand procession arrived to receive Liao Minmin’s body, Du Youqian had already settled Little Wukong and went to take a look.

The one leading the procession was said to be a prince of the Wu Kingdom. He looked to be in his thirties and bore a faint resemblance to Du Yuxi.

But Du Youqian made no move to acknowledge him.

The third-generation emperor of the Du Clan’s Wu Kingdom now reigned. Both Du Yuxi and Du Yuhuan had passed away in previous years.

Even among the children of Du Yuxi that Du Youqian had known, most had withered away, with only one still living.

Du Youqian didn’t know a single person from the current younger generation, nor did he wish to.

His connection to the Du Family had more or less run its course.

Liao Minmin once said that in her old age, she would build a hut by Long Ruzhen’s tomb to live out her days, and she wished to be buried beside the Daoist Temple after her death.

But now, as the Grand Empress Dowager of the Wu Kingdom, she couldn’t simply do as she pleased.

The tomb chamber in Du Yuxi’s mausoleum had been left unsealed, waiting for her to be interred with him.

Despite feeling a little wistful, Du Youqian stuck to his plan. He first went to the Marketplace to purchase all the materials for the Treasure he intended to forge to conceal Demon Qi, then rented a residence to begin his Artifact Refining.

Before his garrison duty at the Hundred Poison Forbidden Land, he had already forged a set of Treasures for himself.

So this time, the Artifact Refining felt much more practiced and familiar. He felt his skills were approaching the level of Tier Three Middle Grade.

One month later, the set of Treasures was successfully completed.

He brought it back to Soul-shaking Mountain to test on Little Wukong and was quite satisfied with the results.

Even a Core Formation Master’s Divine Sense, if used for a careful inspection, would not be able to detect the Demon Qi on Little Wukong.

However, Little Wukong’s incredibly tough body was impossible to hide. Even with the Treasure’s concealment, it would be easy for others to see that its Physique was at the Foundation Establishment Realm or higher.

Fortunately, while beasts of the Core Formation Realm had never appeared in this world, there was no shortage of beasts at the Foundation Establishment Realm, so it wouldn’t arouse too much suspicion.

Moreover, Little Wukong had no obvious distinguishing features. It just looked like an ordinary little monkey, so no one would immediately associate it with a Demon.

"Alright, I’m taking you back to the Sect now. There are many powerful people in the Sect. You absolutely must not reveal your true strength. If you do, neither of us will survive, understand?"

Du Youqian warned him repeatedly, and Little Wukong nodded emphatically.

It had been more than twenty years since its birth. Although its body hadn’t changed and it was still small—not even reaching Du Youqian’s thigh when standing upright—it was actually very intelligent.

Since it was a matter of life and death, it wouldn’t be careless.

The Flying Boat carrying Du Youqian and Little Wukong descended at the gates of the Holy Blood Sect. As Du Youqian stepped out of the Flying Boat, the little monkey darted about nimbly behind him.

A dense crowd of several hundred people was already standing before the mountain gate. When Du Youqian approached, the hundreds of people shouted in unison, "We welcome Master You De back to the Sect!"

This was because Du Youqian’s Flying Boat had been recognized from afar. The Sect had its own protocols, so a Steward from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall had brought a large group of Outer Disciples and Inner Disciples to welcome him.

This both gave face to a True Inheritance Core Formation Master and served as a bit of motivation and inspiration for these Outer and Inner Disciples.

Perhaps someone would sigh in admiration, thinking, ’This is how a true man should be.’

Then, they would fight their way up, achieve Core Formation a hundred years later, and become a legend.

Du Youqian walked through the mountain gate step by step, his gaze fixed forward.

Only after entering the heart of the Sect did he toss out a Flying Sword. Stepping onto it and grabbing Little Wukong, he executed a low-altitude Sword Flight back to his own residence.

Naturally, there was no such pageantry at Du Youqian’s residence; no one was lined up specifically to welcome him back.

However, every person on Miscellaneous Tasks would still bow respectfully upon seeing Du Youqian and call out, "Welcome back to the residence, Master!"

Du Youqian stopped in the garden and looked up at the Core Formation Celestial Phenomenon in the sky.

Then, he took out three Top Grade Spiritual Artifact Level copper coins, tossed them, and after reading the divination, he smiled and put them away.

Greatly auspicious.

Luo Jinyu came forward to greet him.

"Brother Yu, welcome back!" After speaking, his gaze fell on Little Wukong behind Du Youqian, a hint of surprise in his expression.

Little Wukong made a face at him, and Luo Jinyu gave a rare smile.

Du Youqian studied him for a moment, then nodded. "Your aura is very stable. If you were to obtain a Core Formation Spiritual Object and attempt your breakthrough now, you would have a thirty to forty percent chance of success."

Luo Jinyu laughed freely. "Fang Hua already took out a loan in your name to exchange for a Core Formation Spiritual Object, so I’ll have to wait a bit longer. As for Meng Xiao, he probably won’t be able to pay off his debts in the next hundred years, so I can’t count on him."

After a pause, he shrugged, his expression light. "No Demons have appeared in the last ten years. Maybe they won’t show up again in the future. I’m not in a hurry to reach Core Formation."

Du Youqian said in a heavy voice, "Junior Luo, it’s still best to prepare for a rainy day. I will find a way for you. I only have a few leads right now. Once I’ve worked things out, I’ll explain it to you. What about Xiaogu? Has he woken up yet?"

Luo Jinyu’s expression turned glum. "No, Xiaofang is still the same. Seeing him like this, neither dead nor alive, really feels awful."

Du Youqian patted his shoulder, at a loss for words.

After resting for a day, Du Youqian went to Feng Xiaoyi’s residence to pay his respects and ask her to act as a guarantor for Luo Jinyu, so that Luo Jinyu could take out a loan for a Core Formation Spiritual Object.

After teasing her beloved disciple for a bit, Feng Xiaoyi pretended to be reluctant but actually agreed without much care.

As for the Core Formation Spiritual Object, the Sect currently had one—the very one Du Youqian had brought back from the Hundred Poison Forbidden Land.

He hadn’t turned in the Core Formation Spiritual Object yet, planning to wait until Luo Jinyu gained the eligibility to exchange for it before handing it over.

Speaking of which, Du Youqian’s master was quite an interesting character. She always liked to hole up in the Sect and was never willing to go out on Garrison missions, a homebody like no other.

Perhaps it was because when she was young, in the Eight Desolates Hall, she often went out to suppress transgressions and had seen too much slaughter.

Now she was tired and only wanted to stay in the Sect to cultivate her character and recuperate.

A few more days passed, and Xi Zhiheng also returned after completing his Garrison mission.

Du Youqian paid him a visit, also asking him to agree to act as a guarantor for Luo Jinyu so he could borrow Contribution Points to exchange for a Core Formation Spiritual Object.

This way, with two non-True Inheritance Core Formation cultivators co-signing as guarantors, plus Luo Jinyu’s own savings, it would be just enough for him to exchange for a Core Formation Spiritual Object and a Core Formation Secret Technique.

"Master You De, I feel the Sword Intent on you has become even sharper. In these past twenty years, could it be that you have comprehended some profound new Sword Intent?"

Du Youqian laughed it off. "I’ve had some minor gains."

Xi Zhiheng said with great interest, "How about we have a little spar?"

Du Youqian politely declined. "We’ve both worked hard on Garrison duty for twenty years and are a bit weary. Why don’t we rest for a while and talk about it another day?"

Xi Zhiheng was a bit disappointed, but there was no reason to force someone into a spar, so he could only let Du Youqian go.

After leaving Xi Zhiheng’s residence, Du Youqian looked back with a playful expression.

’Judging from Xi Zhiheng’s complexion and how readily he agreed, he must have made significant gains. It’s highly likely he’s already comprehended one of the Divine Abilities that only True Inheritance Core Formation cultivators are supposed to master.’

’That must be why he wanted to spar with me, to test out his newly mastered Divine Abilities.’

’Unfortunately... my newly comprehended Sword Intent isn’t suitable for sparring.’

In truth, the Hundred Poison Forbidden Land was also a suitable place for comprehending Divine Abilities. If Du Youqian had spent the last twenty years on that, he might have had a chance to successfully comprehend a not-insignificant Divine Ability.

But Du Youqian had spent all his time comprehending Sword Intent, and he had only just reached the entry level.

If word got out, others would certainly not understand.

But Du Youqian knew in his heart that even this entry-level Sword Intent was far, far stronger than ordinary Divine Abilities.

The reason he could say this, of course, was because he had once wanted to test this entry-level Sword Intent on his own body while it was under the effect of his Copper Skin Iron Bones Divine Ability.

’A clash between the strongest spear and the strongest shield. Sounds quite interesting, doesn’t it?’

But before he could actually try it, a heart-pounding premonition of great disaster arose within him.

This was his Great Divine Ability, Knowing the Celestial Mandate, reminding him in its own way: If you don’t court disaster, you won’t die.

Therefore, even though he hadn’t actually tested the sword, Du Youqian already knew the result.

This was a Sword Intent that must never be used for sparring.

As he had not yet fully mastered this Sword Intent, he was incapable of fine control.

He couldn’t hold back even if he wanted to.

When the sword is drawn... people will die.

Because this sword move that Du Youqian had just begun to comprehend was the same one from that day in the Cyan Yang Sect Relics, the one the Blood Slaughter Sword had used to cut down a sky full of Demon Emperors, Demon Kings, and cultivators of the Divinity Transformation, Nascent Soul, and Core Formation Realms...

It was "Annihilate."

The "Annihilate" in annihilation.

And the "Annihilate" in annihilating nine generations of a clan.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Luo Jinyu exchanged for the Core Formation Spiritual Object and the Core Formation Secret Technique, then entered seclusion to seek a breakthrough.

Finding himself with some free time, Du Youqian simply decided to spend some time each day guiding Wu Siyuan.

Over the past few years, Wu Siyuan hadn’t been idle either.

Not only had his Cultivation reached Foundation Establishment Perfection, but his Artifact Refining Art was also just a hair’s breadth away from breaking through to Tier Three at any moment.

Du Youqian was quite invested in this. He hoped to raise Wu Siyuan into an Artifact Refining Master as soon as possible, which would allow the Zhongxuan Sect to be promoted. This would also serve as repayment for the kindness the Zhongxuan Sect had shown in nurturing him.

However, before Wu Siyuan could make his breakthrough, a Steward from the External Affairs Hall came to request an audience, saying that Supreme Elder Shen Miao of the Zhongxuan Sect had requested a visit.

Inside Du Youqian’s residence, atop a stone table, a blue-and-white porcelain bottle tilted, pouring fragrant, ambrosial nectar into a wine cup.

After pouring the wine, the beautiful female attendant assigned to Miscellaneous Tasks quietly withdrew.

Shen Miao raised his cup. "Master You De, I toast you. Without you, I don’t know how many hardships I would have had to endure to get to where I am today."

His Cultivation, impressively, had also reached Foundation Establishment Perfection.

A Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator over 120 years old was naturally nothing special in the Holy Blood Sect; in fact, their talent might even be considered too poor.

In the Holy Blood Sect, there were plenty of people who reached Foundation Establishment Perfection in their seventies or eighties.

Someone like Du Youqian, who reached Foundation Establishment Perfection at sixty-six, wasn’t even considered fast in the Sect. There were many who had reached it earlier than him.

It was said that the Taihe Sect once had a genius who reached Foundation Establishment Perfection before the age of forty.

But Shen Miao, after all, came from a small, resource-poor Fourth-class Sect, which made his achievement all the more remarkable.
