I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely - Chapter 150 - 149: Reincarnation Heart Demon
Chapter 150: Chapter 149: Reincarnation Heart Demon
Xu Qing instructed Yan Gu to find a brokerage and sell the courtyard they were living in. A buyer was found the very next day, but they only offered 80,000 silver.
Also.
Because of what happened at the Moon Appreciation Tavern that night, many people on this street no longer felt safe. Those with more money sold their properties and left the street. Naturally, Xu Qing was one of them.
This way,
Xu Qing’s departure wouldn’t seem too abrupt.
In addition,
This time, Xu Qing planned to leave Dongcheng District of Moon River Prefecture City for good. He decided to settle down in Xicheng District, where he bought a courtyard through a local brokerage.
Similarly,
it still cost him 100,000 silver.
「Seven days later.」
「Xicheng District.」
「Tianqi Street.」
In Xu Qing’s new courtyard, the move was simpler and easier this time. Since it wasn’t their first time, they were much more familiar with the process.
Besides that,
Xu Qing now had a Storage Ring, which made moving things much more convenient. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to transport so many Level 5 Spiritual Foods.
“Amitabha Buddha!”
DONG! DONG! DONG!!!!
“…”
Xu Qing noticed something.
Many residents in Xicheng District of Moon River Prefecture City were followers of the Buddhist Sect’s Little Leiyin Temple. Xu Qing had even encountered monks seeking alms twice.
There were many Buddhist followers.
Sanskrit chants often filled the air.
The air throughout Xicheng District carried an extra scent not found in other districts—the smell of incense burned by the faithful.
’Celestial Roc Technique.’
「In the courtyard.」
Xu Qing practiced the Celestial Roc Technique. He was fast; every five minutes, he could complete one round of the Heavenly Peng Observation Method, gaining one Experience Point.
“Not bad.”
Xu Qing mused.
Over the past few days,
Xu Qing hadn’t neglected his practice of Martial Arts and magic gates, and his Experience Points were steadily increasing. Kaya and Yan Gu were also constantly swinging their swords, rapidly raising the Experience Points for the Wandering Dragon Sword and Copper Coin Sword.
…
[Celestial Roc Technique LV3: 3000/4000 (…)]
…
[Celestial Sword Technique LV3: 3000/4000 (…)]
…
[Devouring Demon Technique Second Secret Method LV6: 18000/32000 (…)]
…
[Wandering Dragon Sword LV13: 5,200,000/257,600 (Upgradeable!)]
…
[Copper Coin Sword LV11: 5,300,000/102,400 (Upgradeable!)]
…
“Mm.”
Xu Qing reviewed his status. ’In about ten days or so, the Celestial Roc Technique and Celestial Sword Technique will be ready to level up. The Devouring Demon Technique is almost ready, too.’
’The Experience Points for the Wandering Dragon Sword and Copper Coin Sword aren’t enough to reach Level 20 yet.’
Xu Qing mused, ’If I upgrade them now, the increased grade and level of the two swords will place a greater burden on Kaya and Yan Gu. This would slow down their sword swinging, reducing the daily gain in Experience Points.’
’So,’
’it’s better to wait until I have enough Experience Points to raise them all the way to Level 20 at once. That way, I won’t waste any more time.’
「Late at night.」
Several days had passed since Xu Qing left Dongcheng District.
「On this day.」
「Yuelan Pavilion.」
Just then,
at the back door,
two pimps carrying a burlap sack emerged stealthily. They glanced around and, under the cover of night, carried the sack away.
Afterward,
the two of them followed a familiar path to a Desolate Mountain inside the city. Who knows how many female corpses were already buried on that mountain.
THUD!
The two pimps casually tossed the sack to the ground. After it rolled over a few times, the loosely tied opening came undone, revealing a head of disheveled hair.
As the view drew closer,
one could see by the moonlight…
it was none other than Lan Yu, the woman Liu Yuedong had sent to the Yuelan Pavilion. In just seven days, she had been abused by the clients until she was in this state.
How tragic.
Truly, utterly tragic.
Once upon a time,
she had stood on the main stage of an auction, the center of everyone’s attention, coveted and admired by many, a sight to be looked at from afar but never defiled.
But today,
because of Liu Yuedong, her life had been ruined. She was sent to the Yuelan Pavilion to sell her body, and when the clients learned it was *the* Lan Yu, they grew even more frenzied.
And so,
in just seven short days,
Lan Yu was already half-dead. Her delicate, pretty face was ghostly pale, without a trace of color. It seemed she was already gone.
In reality,
a closer look would reveal…
that Lan Yu wasn’t dead. She was still alive, still breathing—she had one breath left. But the two pimps didn’t know; they thought she was already dead.
Even if the pimps had known she was alive, they would have treated her as if she were dead and proceeded to bury her alive on this Desolate Mountain anyway.
On this Desolate Mountain,
many female corpses from the Yuelan Pavilion were already buried. Most of them were women whose bodies couldn’t withstand the perverted clients, who died miserably in bed or were buried alive while half-dead.
Today,
it was Lan Yu’s turn to meet such a fate.
Hate!
Resentment!
Sorrow!
Suffering!
…
On the verge of death,
all sorts of negative emotions in Lan Yu’s heart reached an extreme. The two pimps didn’t spare her a second glance. As pimps, they were already incomplete men, having lost the most important part of a man, so they had no interest in women.
Soon,
the two pimps quickly dug a large pit. After catching their breath and wiping the sweat from their foreheads, they dragged Lan Yu’s sack over, about to toss her into the pit and bury her.
“Help… help… help me…”
Lan Yu’s mouth moved. She used the last of her strength to beg the two pimps for help, trying to grasp this final sliver of hope to live.
THWACK!
But,
what greeted Lan Yu was not the pimps’ sympathy and rescue, but a heavy blow. The shovel in their hands came crashing down directly on her head.
CRACK!
Faintly,
Lan Yu’s skull could be heard cracking.
And that blow,
knocked Lan Yu completely unconscious.
“What was she thinking?”
One of the pimps curled his lip. “Thinking we’d save you? You must still be dreaming. Someone like you has no value left. Just hurry up and die. You almost scared me.”
“Exactly.”
The other pimp nodded. “This bitch. She’s about to die and she still has to give us a fright. Burying people at night is scary enough as it is.”
As they spoke,
the sack containing Lan Yu was tossed into the pit. Shovelful by shovelful, they piled dirt on top, gradually covering her, gradually burying her.
Finally,
the pit was completely filled with soil.
THUMP! THUMP!
They even stomped on it a few times and packed the earth down firmly with their shovels. Only after confirming there were no issues did they nod in satisfaction.
“I have to say, after burying so many people, I’ve noticed my grave-digging skills have improved a lot,”
one of the pimps said.
“Yeah!”
The other pimp nodded. “It used to take an hour or two to bury someone. Now, we can get it done in twenty minutes, tops. Our skills have definitely improved.”
“Hahaha…”
The two pimps shared a laugh and turned to leave.
「In the pit.」
The earth had already buried Lan Yu.
HUM! HUM! HUM!!!
However,
at that very moment,
as Lan Yu lingered on the brink of death, the irresolvable, indelible, and ineradicable hatred, resentment, pain, sorrow, loathing, and other negative emotions deep within her heart seemed to be evolving into something.
Most importantly,
on a private area of Lan Yu’s body, there was a jet-black tattoo. It looked like a blooming black lotus surrounded by a black ring.
Now,
Lan Yu’s irresolvable, indelible, and ineradicable hatred, resentment, pain, sorrow, and loathing transformed into a type of extreme, dark energy. It surged into the black lotus tattoo, causing the flower to bloom completely.
BOOM!
In an instant,
Lan Yu’s consciousness vaguely entered a strange state. In the deepest part of her heart, an extreme Heart Demon was born.
“Are you in pain? Full of resentment? Drowning in sorrow? Do you want the power to take revenge on everyone? Then accept me. Become me. Fuse with me!”
HUM!
The Reincarnation Heart Demon had reappeared.
This was the Heart Demon that had emerged from the depths of the ’Reincarnation Ruins’. Over twenty years ago, this same Reincarnation Heart Demon had infected Zhou Guo, and then Wu Dao Ming.
And now,
it had appeared in Lan Yu.
“I… I am willing!”
Lan Yu’s consciousness responded, “As long as I can survive, as long as I can get my revenge, as long as I can kill everyone who brought me this endless suffering, I’m willing to give anything. I’m willing to give anything…”
BOOM!
Instantly,
Lan Yu’s consciousness and soul fused completely with the Reincarnation Heart Demon. It was a fusion of absolute abandon, a union that sacrificed everything.
Therefore,
Lan Yu’s fusion with the Reincarnation Heart Demon was of the highest degree. It even surpassed that of Zhou Guo from over twenty years ago, and it surpassed that of any other creature ever corroded by the Reincarnation Heart Demon.
This aura, this fluctuation, this power…
HUM! HUM! HUM!!!
Not only that,
on this Desolate Mountain, countless other female corpses from the Yuelan Pavilion were buried. Before their deaths, these women were also filled with incredibly potent resentment.
Now,
Lan Yu had become the fuse. The resentment from all the female corpses and their accumulated grievances, as if finding an outlet, all surged toward her.
Similarly,
as Lan Yu fused with the Reincarnation Heart Demon, she was constantly absorbing the surrounding resentment and grievances, absorbing the negative emotions from all the nearby female corpses.
In a short time,
the intensity of Lan Yu’s aura soared. She stepped directly onto the Demon Path, transforming into the Reincarnation Demoness. Amidst endless pain and resentment, she comprehended the Resentment Realm and the Painful Realm.
In addition,
with the Reincarnation Realm that the Reincarnation Heart Demon already possessed,
at this moment,
Lan Yu had mastered three Mental Realms.
“What’s going on?”
“Did the air suddenly get colder?”
Suddenly,
the two pimps hunched their necks. They felt a thread of chill and, when they came to their senses, noticed a faint black mist appearing around them.
The next moment,
a shiver ran down the pimps’ spines. A female ghost with disheveled hair had appeared before them, scaring them into letting out ear-piercing screams.
SPURT! SPURT!
Blood splattered.
A Black Shadow flashed past.
Two desiccated corpses with terrified expressions on their faces appeared on the Desolate Mountain, along with one opened pit after another. Inside these pits were tattered old burlap sacks.
Some of the sacks had already rotted away from the passage of time.
As for the bodies inside these pits, they had all vanished.
