Immortal after a Hundred Reincarnations Chapter 1: Magical Transmigration and the Ten Thousand Lives

[Brain-check Area]

—

’Is that... a tiger?’

Xu Lei hid behind a rock, motionless, holding his breath.

Earlier, he had encountered a thick fog, and the next thing he knew, he was here.

At that mont,

Xu Lei’s vision blurred.

A Jade Book appeared, and text materialized on it:

[Supre Treasure: Ten Thousand Lives Book

Host: Xu Lei

Age: 17

Function: If the Host dies a physical death from injury, he can choose to expend a life to either resurrect himself or reincarnate. Resurrection does not reverse aging. If the Host dies of old age, he can only choose to reincarnate.

Current Lives Remaining: 10,000

(Note: Reincarnation is only possible into the Host’s own descendant bloodline.)

Current Number of Descendants: 0

(Note: There is a waiting period of several decades between reincarnation attempts. Therefore, the Host must ensure the continuation of his lineage. If the bloodline dies out, reincarnation will fail.)]

’No signal on my phone, and my skin has gotten smoother!’

’I’ve transmigrated!’

’And I’ve even turned back into my 17-year-old self!’

’Incredible!’

’So what I need to do now is... have children before my lifespan runs out?’

’A few won’t be enough. To be safe, I need to have a lot of them.’

Xu Lei quickly accepted everything that had happened to him.

’Why won’t this tiger leave? How am I supposed to get out of these mountains?’

If he couldn’t get out of the mountains, he couldn’t find a woman, and he couldn’t have descendants.

Therefore, Xu Lei’s first step was to get out of the mountains.

However, he remained hidden, dagger in hand.

Even with ten thousand lives, he couldn’t afford to squander them.

Once they were gone, that was it.

The tiger was just an animal; there was no need to pick a fight with it.

An hour later,

the tiger finally left.

Xu Lei breathed a sigh of relief.

He stepped out from behind the rock.

Two hours later,

Xu Lei ran into trouble anyway!

A snake the size of his little finger

suddenly shot out from the grass beside him

and bit him.

Xu Lei was caught completely off guard.

His vision swam.

He collapsed and died on the spot!

’I dodged the tiger, but not the viper! A hidden threat is always the hardest to guard against!’

Xu Lei couldn’t see anything.

But his consciousness remained active.

At that mont,

the Ten Thousand Lives Book reacted.

[Host’s death detected.]

[No bloodline descendants detected. Reincarnation unavailable.]

[The Host may choose the ti and location of resurrection.]

[Resurrection location can be freely chosen within a 100-ter radius of the current position.]

[Once resurrection begins, the physical remains will be automatically repaired.]

[Resurrect now?]

Xu Lei discovered that after the Ten Thousand Lives Book reacted, his consciousness could once again perceive his surroundings.

He saw the venomous snake that had killed him

still lingering not far from his body.

Its side was turned toward his ’corpse.’

Its vital spot was right within reach!

’Yes! Resurrect now, on the spot!’

Xu Lei didn’t hesitate.

Instantly,

the Ten Thousand Lives Book released a mysterious energy,

allowing Xu Lei’s consciousness to return to his body!

In a flash, it purged the poison!

The bite wound also healed in an instant!

’Die!!!’

Xu Lei grabbed his dagger and slashed,

cutting it directly in two.

Of course, a snake’s vitality is tenacious.

It didn’t die right away.

Its bisected body continued to writhe.

In response, Xu Lei swung his dagger again, frantically hacking away at it.

Then he stood up and stomped on it ferociously until the viper was reduced to a pulp, only then venting his anger.

When it was over,

Xu Lei was covered in a thin layer of sweat.

Recalling the experience, he still felt a lingering fear.

That had been a true death experience!

’If it weren’t for the Ten Thousand Lives Book, I would have been a goner.’

’But even though I lost one life,’

’it proved that the Ten Thousand Lives Book is completely reliable!’

’If I die from an injury now, I can really be resurrected!’

’That ans if I have descendants, I should really be able to reincarnate after dying of old age!’

A few minutes later,

Xu Lei took out a half-empty bottle of mineral water from his backpack, took a sip,

and continued on his way through the forest.

He was even more cautious now.

Three hours later,

Xu Lei, whose morale was beginning to crumble from all the walking, finally encountered another person.

The person was bathing in a lake in the woods.

Their discarded clothes lay on the bank.

After hesitating for a few monts,

Xu Lei crept closer and, seeing his chance, swiped the clothes from the bank.

It was just like the Cowherd in the old myths from Earth, who stole the clothes of a fairy maiden who had descended to the mortal realm.

"Fuck your mother! Which son of a bitch stole my damn clothes!!!"

But Xu Lei wasn’t as lucky as the Cowherd, whose clothes-stealing antics netted him a fairy for a wife.

All he got was a string of foul-mouthed curses from the lake.

That’s right. The person bathing in the lake was a middle-aged man.

Not so beautiful woman, and certainly not a fairy maiden.

Despite being cursed at, Xu Lei was ecstatic.

Because he realized the man was also speaking Chinese!

He had cleared the language barrier just like that.

The style of the clothes also resembled ancient garnts from Earth.

The reason he stole the clothes, of course, was that Xu Lei didn’t want to interact with the people of this world while wearing the ’bizarre and outlandish attire’ of modern clothing.

Of course, Xu Lei silently promised himself that if he ever got the chance in the future, once he made sothing of himself, he would definitely co back and make it up to the poor fellow whose clothes he’d stolen.

And he did have a shred of conscience; he had left the man’s underwear behind.

Four hours later,

Xu Lei finally walked out of the mountain forest.

He was a little nervous.

Because he still didn’t know what kind of new world awaited him.

People always feel uneasy when facing the unknown.

Of course, the thought that he still had nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine lives greatly eased his anxiety.

His steps beca much steadier.

By this point, Xu Lei’s appearance had naturally changed.

He was wearing the stolen ancient-style outer robe of the middle-aged native.

He had also cut the bill off his baseball cap,

turning it into a simple round cap to cover his short, nearly-buzzed hair.

His backpack was wrapped in a black cloth, disguised to look like a traditional bundle.
