Reincarnation

Chapter 37: Samsara (Seeking Recommendation Tickets~)

"Your Majesty, can we crush that Human Race brat now?" A massive ox beside the carriage spoke, its voice deep and resonant.

"No rush~"

The maiden's voice was slightly hoarse, carrying a seductive, teasing lilt. As she spoke, she once again grabbed Shi Lan's arm and licked it gently.

Shi Lan's eye twitched. The maiden had licked the same spot three times in a row, and now, her arm revealed bone beneath the flesh.

After sucking the blood flowing from Shi Lan's wound dry, the maiden narrowed her eyes contentedly.

"Your Majesty, let's head to the next Human Race city. Why waste time with these Human Race ants here?" A snow leopard, less than ten feet long, leaped beside the carriage, its tone impatient.

"Do you presume to teach me how to conduct myself?" The maiden's emerald vertical pupils turned icy as she glared at the snow leopard.

"Your Majesty, I know my mistake..."

The snow leopard met the maiden's gaze and trembled, immediately prostrating itself in terror.

However, before it could finish speaking, an invisible, immense force enveloped it.

"Pfft—"

With a dull thud, the snow leopard was instantly crushed into a mist of blood.

The other demonic beasts nearby, which had been restless, all lowered their heads, utterly silenced by the sight.

The maiden parted her lips and took a deep breath, inhaling the mist of blood that was the snow leopard. She frowned slightly, a hint of distaste in her expression, "So fishy."

As if to rinse her mouth, the maiden licked away another piece of flesh from Shi Lan. Then, she raised a finger and pointed at Shi Feng in the distance.

Shi Feng felt the pressure on him vanish. The previous suppression disappeared without a trace.

Shi Feng stared at the maiden on the carriage, then beckoned, and the saber lying beside him flew back into his hand.

Gripping the saber hilt tightly, Shi Feng's thoughts churned. From his earliest memories of wandering alone, starving and cold, to entering Shi Manor fifteen years ago, where he had food and shelter, and now facing this boundless Beast Tide, he felt lost.

In a flash, past memories flickered through his mind like a revolving lantern, finally settling on Shi Lan's smile bathed in the morning light.

Shi Feng's emotions gradually calmed. If Shi Tianlu hadn't saved him fifteen years ago when he was about to starve to death in a snowstorm, he wouldn't be alive today. He had been given an extra fifteen years of life; he should be content...

The Innate Qi within him began to flow slowly, starting from his Dantian, like a clear spring pouring into his limbs, its speed increasing until it became a surging, roaring river.

At this moment, Shi Feng felt as if his spirit had been sublimated, a sense of exhilaration welling up within him.

He raised his saber, pointing it at the boundless Beast Tide before him. Shi Feng's aura retracted to its absolute limit, his expression devoid of joy or sorrow, an invisible momentum slowly condensing around him.

He had already accepted life and death...

"Your Majesty, what exactly do you want to do?" The ox couldn't help but ask again.

The maiden had released Shi Feng's restraints, yet she wouldn't let them act.

"This Human Race brat's cultivation is at the seventh level of the Foundation Realm. Pick two Foundation Realm seventh-level beasts and throw them at him," the maiden ordered lazily.

The ox complied, selecting two wolf demons at the seventh level of the Foundation Realm and ordering them to attack.

"Your Majesty, can you tell me what this means?" The ox returned to the maiden's side and asked.

"A Human Race martial artist's qi and blood will gradually accelerate its flow with the intensity of battle, rising to their head and neck, causing their face to flush and sweat profusely." As she spoke, the maiden seemed to recall something, her expression becoming somewhat excited.

"If their head is severed the moment their qi and blood surge to their peak, their vital essence will erupt from their neck, spraying over ten Zhang high!"

A hint of manic excitement flashed in the maiden's eyes. "The stronger the martial artist, the higher their vital essence will spray. That is the scenery this Queen loves to see the most!"

Shi Lan listened to the maiden's sensational words, an icy chill spreading through his heart.

It was only now that Shi Lan truly understood the meaning of "those of a different species will surely have different hearts."

Even if the maiden's beauty was exquisite, even if she wore a human skin, a beast was still a beast and could never become human!

At this moment, the two wolf demons at the seventh level of the Foundation Realm were less than fifty feet from Shi Feng.

Shi Feng pointed the tip of his saber at the ground and stepped forward, walking unhurriedly.

The distance between them rapidly closed.

When the two wolf demons were less than ten feet from Shi Feng, the saber in his hand moved lightly, and an incredibly sharp, terrifying saber energy emanated from him.

The two wolf demons seemed to sense something, a flicker of fear in their eyes as they desperately tried to stop, but it was too late.

As they stepped within five feet of Shi Feng, they were instantly torn to shreds by the rampant, terrifying saber energy, turning into a sky full of blood mist!

Seeing this, the maiden stood up in surprise. After observing Shi Feng for a moment, her expression grew more excited. "Saber Intent! He's actually condensed Saber Intent!"

To condense the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth for his own use at such a young age, he must be a Human Race prodigy. Thinking of beheading a Human Race prodigy here, the maiden's body trembled slightly with excitement.

"Heaven blesses our demon race, heaven blesses Your Majesty! We've stumbled upon a Human Race prodigy without any protectors!" The ox beside her also panted excitedly.

"This Queen wants to play with him properly. A prodigy who hasn't fully grown yet, the thought alone is exciting," the maiden licked her lips and flashed before Shi Feng.

The rampant, terrifying saber energy around them dissipated into nothingness upon contact with the maiden, as if being swallowed.

Shi Feng's steps faltered slightly, then he stepped forward with even greater determination. He reversed his grip on his saber and swung it upwards, a massive, transparent saber shadow cleaving down from the air.

Shi Feng's eyes held no trace of fear or apprehension, only a profound indifference, as if the being before him was a mere demon he could swat away with ease, not a world-shattering demon king that had already taken human form.

An aura of fearless, selfless invincibility had coalesced around Shi Feng. No matter who his opponent was, he would not hesitate to slash out with the long saber in his hand.

The maiden looked up at the illusory saber projection, the corner of her lips curling upwards. She flicked a finger, and a terrifying surge of energy erupted from her body, instantly shattering the illusory saber projection in the air.

Shi Lan, sitting in the carriage, watched this unfold with her own eyes. A wave of powerlessness suddenly washed over her heart; her strength was too weak.

"I can help you."

A somewhat familiar voice suddenly echoed in her mind. Shi Lan jolted, her eyes, the only part of her body that could move, darting around.

"No need to look. I'm inside you. This is my first time communicating with a host, and I'm a bit unaccustomed. Please bear with me. Allow me to introduce myself. For our first interaction, Shi Lan, I am the backend of the Myriad Heavens Reincarnation System. You can call me Reincarnation..."
