I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

After pausing for a moment to let everyone digest the shocking news, Shi Shentong continued, "It is often said that when it rains, it pours. I have even worse news to announce to you all. We only recently learned that the Demon Fiend who replaced Yin Ruozhen, in addition to its machinations in the Desolate Abyss awakening those Demon King Zombies, has also managed to awaken an Unparalleled Great Demon."

The atmosphere in the small hall completely exploded.

’A creature that Elder Shi would call an Unparalleled Great Demon... just how powerful could it be?’

’Tier Four is definitely not enough, right?’

’Could it be Tier Five?’

’How are we supposed to deal with a behemoth like that?’

’I heard something happened to Elder Blood Slaughter, and something happened to Elder Jiang Shan Duojiao too. Who’s left to deal with the Unparalleled Great Demon?’

A younger Core Formation Master interjected, "Who are Elder Blood Slaughter and Elder Jiang Shan Duojiao? Their names are unfamiliar."

The more senior Core Formation Masters, with grim faces and no patience for teaching common knowledge, snapped, "Don’t interrupt! This is no time to chat about such things. This matter concerns the very survival of our entire Human Race!"

Elder Shi watched them argue in silence. He didn’t stop them, allowing the atmosphere to grow even heavier.

The rather cramped hall was filled with the feeling of a storm about to break.

After a long moment, he finally said, "That Unparalleled Great Demon destroyed the Shuangxi Sect not long ago. It shattered their Tier Three Sect Protection Array with a single punch and wiped out the entire sect with a single breath."

The Core Formation Masters revealed expressions of utter astonishment, even finding it completely absurd.

’A single breath?’

’That’s a bit of an overstatement, isn’t it?’

’Has Elder Shi started to enjoy using such exaggerated language?’

But Elder Shi simply nodded. "That’s right. A single breath. It’s a Tier Six Great Demon, an incarnation of a Great Saint. Killing a group of Foundation Establishment Cultivators with a breath is effortless for it. Crushing a Core Formation Master with one finger is no more difficult for it than it is for us to crush an ant."

Silence.

The entire hall was deathly silent.

If you were looking for a way to kill the mood, Elder Shi’s words were second to none.

Many of them were probably lost in a state of confusion.

’Tier Six? A Great Saint? Who am I? Where am I? Where did I come from, and where am I going?’

After a long time, the representative from the Lingxiao Sword Pavilion, Tongming Master, spoke with a solemn expression, "This matter is of the utmost gravity. The survival of the entire Human Race hangs by a thread. May I ask Fellow Daoist Shi, does your esteemed sect have a way to deal with this?"

Shi Shentong and the Taihe Sect’s Supreme Elder, Master Wu Ji, exchanged a glance. Both felt the time was ripe.

The former slowly began to speak, "A way to deal with it... naturally, one exists. However, for a group of us Tier Three Core Formation Masters to slay a Tier Six Great Power against all odds, the price required will certainly be unimaginably high."

The Masters burst into discussion.

Indeed, as everyone knew, fighting above one’s tier was practically impossible.

Under normal circumstances, even dozens of Foundation Establishment Cultivators might not be able to defeat a single Core Formation Master.

And if it were Qi Refining Cultivators... every single Qi Refining Cultivator in the world could die without being able to harm a Core Formation Master in the slightest.

The gap between them, Tier Three Core Formation Masters, and a Tier Six Great Power... was even greater than the gap between Qi Refining Cultivators and Core Formation Masters.

Normally, they should be considering how to die a less painful death, not how to defeat their opponent.

Even in dreams, one wouldn’t be so bold.

You at least have to lie down in bed and close your eyes before you start dreaming.

If not for the fact that many knew of the existence of the Blood Slaughter Sword and the Rivers and Mountains Map, those unwilling to submit would have probably already gone home to quietly await their doom. As for those willing to be dogs for the Demon Race, they would likely have already run off to welcome the invaders with open arms.

Tongming Master considered this for a moment before saying resolutely, "You mean to ask Elder Blood Slaughter to take action! I wonder, what is Elder Blood Slaughter’s current condition?"

Shi Shentong shook his head. "Elder Blood Slaughter is in poor condition and is currently self-repairing in a deep slumber. If we are to awaken him and compel him to slay a Tier Six enemy..."

Here, Shi Shentong paused deliberately, his gaze sweeping across the hall. "It will require an enormous sacrifice. Not only will we need the entire Essence Blood of at least ten Core Formation Masters to help Elder Blood Slaughter recover quickly, but we will also need about ten more Core Formation Masters to sacrifice everything, including their souls, in the hope of boosting Elder Blood Slaughter’s power to slay this formidable foe. All you Masters present, are you prepared?"

This instantly stirred up a hornet’s nest. In the face of death, many of these Core Formation Masters, who were usually so calculating and highly respected, showed their true colors.

Someone said, "Our entire Essence Blood? Isn’t that a certain death sentence? How can you ask us, dignified Core Formation Masters, to go to our deaths! Can’t you just find more Foundation Establishment Cultivators!"

Someone stamped their foot. "Even our souls have to be sacrificed? That means no Reincarnation, no next life! How is that acceptable?!"

Someone scoffed, "Whoever wants to be sacrificed can go right ahead, but I, for one, am not willing. Did I endure centuries of bitter Cultivation just to have my soul scattered, with no chance of Reincarnation?"

Someone pleaded with the Taihe Sect, "Your esteemed sect is a representative of the Profound Sects Orthodox Sect! You mustn’t fall for the Holy Blood Sect’s scheme and use this Evil Technique to harm us, the pillars of the righteous path!"

Someone spouted a conspiracy theory, "Is the Holy Blood Sect trying to use this opportunity to screw us over, so they can secure their position as a First-class Sect forever?"

Someone even began to conspire secretly, "If we stand united, not even the Taihe and Holy Blood Sects can do anything to us. Would they dare to risk universal condemnation and make an enemy of the entire world?"

Since some were opposed, naturally, others were willing to sacrifice themselves voluntarily.

One said magnanimously, "Perhaps my entire life of bitter Cultivation has been for this very moment. If a sacrifice is needed, let it begin with me!"

Another laughed, "Fellow Daoist, your spirit is as strong as ever. I’m impressed. But when it comes to sacrifice, a younger person’s Essence Blood and soul would probably be more helpful for Elder Blood Slaughter’s victory! Let it be me!"

An old monk lowered his head and chanted a Buddhist phrase, "Heaven and Earth are heartless; all things share this sorrow. If I don’t enter hell, who will?"

Someone voiced their hesitation, "I’m not afraid of sacrifice, but I am the only Core Formation Master in my sect. If I am sacrificed, what will happen when my sect suffers a Demotion?"

To this, the Taihe Sect’s Master Wu Ji solemnly explained, "All sects that sacrifice a Core Formation Master will, after this is over, receive a Demon Core and some other resources. Furthermore, they will not suffer a Demotion for one hundred years."

"That’s wonderful! In that case, I am also willing to make the sacrifice."

Seeing that the Emotions had been sufficiently stirred, Shi Shentong bellowed angrily, "All this clamoring! Have you no decency?!"

After a pause, he said, "Those unwilling to be sacrificed, stand to my right! Those willing to sacrifice themselves voluntarily, stand to my left!"

Immediately, five people moved to stand on his left.

The remaining people looked at one another, until finally, a Supreme Elder from a Third-class Sect hesitantly walked to Shi Shentong’s right.

With him as the first, more people trickled over to join him.

Meanwhile, two more people joined the group on the left.

Interestingly, there was a total of seven people who were resolutely unwilling to be sacrificed. All of them were Core Formation Masters from Second-class and Third-class Sects.

The number of those willing to sacrifice themselves was also seven, consisting of four from the Taihe and Holy Blood Sects, as well as three from other sects.

Someone standing to Shi Shentong’s right sneered, "Those people from the Taihe and Holy Blood Sects are plants. Even if they volunteer, they definitely won’t be the ones sacrificed. Why are you following them? Are you stupid?"

Among those willing to be sacrificed was the old monk from the Great Compassion Temple. He looked up and smiled. "To burn my decrepit body is a great sorrow, yet also a great joy! This old monk may be a fool, benefactor, but you are a dolt."

The person who had sneered paled. "Old monk, what is the meaning of this?"

The old monk just smiled and said nothing.

Shi Shentong and Master Wu Ji had already communicated privately. At this point, Shi Shentong said coolly, "Is this it? No one else is willing to sacrifice themselves voluntarily?"

The remaining thirty or so people were all silent.

No one else moved to join the group of the unwilling. They just remained silent.

Shi Shentong sighed. "Then let it be so. Fellow Daoist Wu Ji!"

"Very well!" Master Wu Ji responded.

Du Youqian was the first to notice something was wrong. But with his profound Cultivation, and being certain that this was his home turf where he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage, he didn’t move at all.

The Cultivators from the other sects, however, noticed a moment too late. By the time they realized, it was already too late.

"What is the meaning of this! Why can’t I use my Magical Power!" someone shouted in anger.

"I can’t even open my Storage Treasure Pouch!"

"My Treasure!"

"I can’t even extend my Divine Sense!"

"An Array! This is the power of an Array!"

The Masters began to panic.

Du Youqian had a True Inheritance Token on him. He found he could still use his Magical Power and his Divine Sense wasn’t greatly affected, so he relaxed.

Just then, more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Holy Blood Sect rushed in, all full of vigor and seemingly unaffected by the Array.

Shi Shentong pointed at the seven who were unwilling to be sacrificed. "Seize them all!"

"You dare!" Those men were both shocked and furious.

"Demon Blood Sect, ptooey! Are you trying to be as evil as possible?!"

"On what grounds are you seizing us! Is it wrong to be unwilling to sacrifice ourselves?"

The dozen or so Holy Blood Sect Foundation Establishment Cultivators who rushed in didn’t waste time talking to them, their lips sealed tight.

They were all exclusively Body Refining Cultivators, each one strong and powerful, their vitality overflowing.

Although the bodies of Core Formation Masters were strong, it depended on who you compared them to.

Unable to use Magical Power and without the protection of Gang Sha Qi, they were slightly inferior to Foundation Establishment Cultivators who specialized in Body Refining.

Furthermore, the hall was cramped, leaving no room to maneuver.

So, without much apparent effort, they beat the seven Core Formation Masters—who couldn’t use Magic or drive their Treasures—black and blue, subdued them, shackled them with special manacles, and gagged them.

Of the thirty-some Core Formation Masters who had remained silent, more than half were Masters from the Holy Blood Sect and the Taihe Sect. They all had a tacit understanding, so naturally, no one said a word.

As for the Core Formation Masters from the Second- and Third-class Sects, they were as silent as cicadas in winter, terrified of getting drawn into the fire.

Shi Shentong said coolly, "For the sacrifice... seven is not quite enough. We still need three more."

Only then did he turn to the seven who had stepped forward, willing to sacrifice themselves voluntarily.

First, he spoke to the four Cultivators from the Holy Blood and Taihe Sects, "The Sect will not forget your sacrifice. If there is anyone you wish to recommend for entry into the Sect, just name them. If there is anyone you wish to promote, just speak up. The Sect will give them its full support to reach Core Formation within the next hundred years."

Then, he spoke to the three from other sects, "You are willing to sacrifice yourselves for the Human Race. Since that is the case, you should keep your useful lives and continue to protect the Human Race!"

Those three Core Formation Masters had already resigned themselves to death, but upon hearing this, they did not object.

If you can live, who would choose to die?

Even the great monk from the Great Compassion Temple lowered his head and recited a Buddhist phrase, "It seems this old monk will have to descend into hell another day."

Shi Shentong then looked at the thirty-odd people who had not made their stance clear, his expression grim. "Disciples of the Holy Blood and Taihe Two Sects, listen to my command! When your name is called, step forward!"

"Master Zuo Quan!"

A pale-faced Core Formation Master from the Holy Blood Sect with a goatee stepped out. Though he was completely unwilling, it was impossible for him to resist.

If he didn’t resist, he would only have his Essence Blood drained and die.

If he resisted, he would be thrown into the group for sacrifice, to die without even the hope of Reincarnation.

"Liu Yun Master!" This time, it was a Core Formation Master from the Taihe Sect.

"Three Smiles Master!"

"Master Wu Fei!"

"Hundred Refinement Master!"

"Liu Feng Master!"

In the end, six people were called out. Added to the previous four, that made exactly ten.

Luo Jinyu glanced at Du Youqian and forced a smile.

He was Hundred Refinement Master.
