The Reincarnation System
The Reincarnation System is a browser-based xianxia cultivation idle game. Gather Qi, break through cultivation realms, and when a life ends — reincarnate, carrying hard-won progress into the next. Climb from a mortal body-refinement cultivator to the immortal planes.
▸ Idle cultivation — Qi accrues whether you watch or walk away; offline gains are tallied when you return
▸ Layered prestige — reincarnation, dao-reincarnation, and samsara each reset a layer and return permanent power
▸ Deep mid/late game — soul forks, techniques, pills, tribulations, an immortal-realm ladder that survives every reset
▸ Cloud saves, cross-device — sign in with GitHub/Google and your cultivator follows you (or stay fully offline — your save is always yours, exportable anytime)
▸ Opt-in leaderboards + alliances — lifetime insight, highest realm, cosmetic guilds
Free, actively updated, fully completable without paying. Progress saves automatically.

(Optional Immortal Edition, €5 — cosmetic only: themes, auras, a reincarnation sigil. Never power.)

The progression curve kinda sucks, after the 1st wheel you lose everything and your insight is stuck to 0. (7 ascensions).
It would be less annoying if at least the forked souls would not lose their bonus when you are levelling them up.
Also have some scaling in the techniques bonus, most of them will never pay off in 90 minutes of life = Bonus x5400. It is not worth to increase them higher than this value.
Hey thanks for the feedback, I recently pushed out a rebalancing update that fixes the softlock for some players. Hit shift + ctrl + r to do a hard refresh
Doorway? In my 2026? OMG
No longer gaining Insight and therefore unable to progress, know a fix?
Hey Jeffy, thanks for trying out the game!
You can try reaching for higher mortal realms (Corporeal Yang) to get bigger multipliers before ascending.
When you have your soul splits/forks cultivating (not on an expedition) then they also increase the Qi gathering.
Use the pills you craft also to get a timed boost.
You can also take part in the vow, to gain aptitude (vow of haste).
Finally, clicking on the avatar also increases the Qi output rate by 30% + 70% with the breathing technique
At one point you will however hit a curve where the only solution is time or an auto clicker to speed things up (currently it takes roughly 28h to reach second step aka end game)
