I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely - Chapter 194 - 185: Frenzied Battle Intent
Chapter 194: Chapter 185: Frenzied Battle Intent
On the battlefield.
Xu Qing unleashed the Devouring Technique, consuming one Frenzied Beast and Frenzied Demonic Beast after another. But as he did, he didn’t feel the sensation of devouring real flesh and blood.
These frenzied creatures were not truly alive.
However.
Xu Qing felt himself devouring a special kind of Mental Realm.
This Mental Realm was called Frenzy.
In other words, Frenzied Battle Intent.
「Time passed.」
The battle raged on.
“Haaaah…”
Xu Qing took a deep breath. He controlled one Level 20 item and artifact after another, unleashing his full Power and erupting with immense combat strength.
RUMBLE!!!
All sorts of booming sounds echoed in every direction.
“Kill!!!”
Ye Langtian was also cutting a bloody swath across the battlefield.
Before long…
BOOM!
Xu Qing’s aura shifted. The blood qi around him seemed to ignite, forming a crimson mist of frenzy. It swirled around his body, merging with his black Demonic Qi to create a blood-black haze.
Faintly,
Xu Qing’s eyes turned a blood-black color.
’I’ve mastered it.’
Xu Qing carefully assessed his condition, the corners of his mouth turning up slightly as a pleased thought crossed his mind. ’By constantly using the Devouring Technique to absorb the corpses of these Frenzied Beasts, Frenzied Demonic Beasts, and Fierce and Frenzied Beasts, I’ve been steadily accumulating comprehension of the Frenzy Mental Realm.’
’Now…’
’After all this fighting, and with the Mighty Power of the Devouring Technique, I’ve now mastered the First Level Frenzied Battle Intent. When I use it, my combat power doubles.’
’Not bad at all.’
Xu Qing nodded slightly.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
「Time passed.」
Xu Qing had no idea how long he’d been fighting. He only knew one thing: no matter how many Frenzied Beasts, Frenzied Demonic Beasts, and Fierce and Frenzied Beasts he and Ye Langtian killed, an endless tide of them kept charging out from the surrounding mountains. They were simply inexhaustible.
The beast tide was truly endless.
“Frenzied Battle Intent!”
BOOM!
Xu Qing roared. Frenzied blood qi surged around him as his combat power rapidly climbed. After all this fighting and devouring, his Frenzied Battle Intent had unknowingly reached the Third Layer. ’The Second Level Frenzied Battle Intent can increase combat power by two times, while the Third Layer can increase it by four times.’
’In other words…’
’With each new layer, the power boost doubles.’
“Kill!”
CLANG!
The ring of a sword echoed.
With a sharp cry, Xu Qing formed a Sword Pointing gesture. Three swords hovered before him: the Level 20 Iron Sword, the Level 20 Wandering Dragon Sword, and the Level 20 Copper Coin Sword.
The three swords shot forward as one.
“Life-taking Heavenly Sword Technique.”
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!!!
The clang of swords rang out in all directions.
A powerful Sword Intent erupted. Six different Sword Intents merged, transforming into a single, incomparably terrifying Sword Intent that unleashed a devastating strike.
RUMBLE!!!
CRACK! CRACK!
Countless Extraordinary Ferocious Beasts were slain by that single strike, which also carved a deep, abyss-like gash into the earth.
“Devouring Technique!”
HUMMM!
Xu Qing raised his right hand, a black vortex forming in his palm. A terrifying Devouring Power spread out, blanketing the corpses on the ground.
Then,
all the corpses were devoured.
“Haaaah…”
Xu Qing opened his eyes, which had become even more blood-red. He sensed the true essence of Frenzied Battle Intent as the frenzied blood qi around him surged to a new level. ’I’ve reached the Fourth Level Frenzied Battle Intent.’
’This is just ridiculous!’
Xu Qing took a deep breath, contemplating the mysteries of Frenzied Battle Intent. He had completely mastered it, reaching the Fourth Realm.
’This is the terrifying part of the Devouring Technique,’
Xu Qing mused. ’It has almost no restrictions. It can devour anything without a second thought, using Devouring Demon Intent to engulf and refine it, converting it all into my own Power.’
’After all,’
’even if I were to use the Encyclopedia of All Things to record powerful Martial Arts, reaching the Fourth Realm in such a short amount of time would be incredibly difficult.’
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
Just then,
from the depths of the gray-black mist, Ferocious Beasts as large as mountains charged out. There was a Hill Giant, a Titan Giant Bear, and a Giant Spirit Python.
RUMBLE!!!
The terrifying Giant Beasts charged forward.
“Master, be careful!”
Ye Langtian cried out.
However,
after fighting for so long,
Ye Langtian had reached his limit. His face was pale, and a look of horror appeared as he saw the three terrifying Giant Beasts.
Because,
in the times before,
he had always been killed by these three terrifying Giant Beasts, even when he gave it his all.
“Mm,”
Xu Qing nodded.
“KILL!!!”
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
The battle erupted.
Showing not a trace of fear, Xu Qing charged straight into the fray. With a wave of his right hand, the Level 20 Copper Coin Sword transformed into the Heaven-Slaying Giant Sword and slashed toward the Hill Giant.
ROAR!!!
RUMBLE!!!
The Hill Giant roared, its massive fist smashing forward to block Xu Qing’s attack.
“Kill!”
CRACK! CRACK!
BANG! BANG! BANG!!!
Xu Qing went all out.
He unleashed the full Mighty Power of all his items and released layer after layer of his Domain, suppressing the three giant Ferocious Beasts to the utmost. Again and again, Xu Qing unleashed powerful techniques.
Not only that,
he also fully unleashed his Fourth Level Frenzied Battle Intent, increasing his strength and Mighty Power by more than eight times.
“Cough, cough…”
Xu Qing coughed up blood.
BOOM!
With a tremendous bang, Xu Qing seized an opportunity. He poured all of his Power into a formidable Fist Technique, unleashing the Baji Celestial Roc Fist with an earth-shattering punch.
CRACK! CRACK!
BAM!!!
The violent explosion was deafening.
One could see
the Hill Giant’s head shatter under Xu Qing’s fist, exploding in a shower of rock fragments. With a single punch, Xu Qing had killed the mighty Hill Giant.
“Argh!”
THWACK! THWACK!
But Xu Qing paid a price. The Giant Spirit Python’s massive tail slammed into his body. The force of the blow was overwhelming.
It could be said that
if anyone else had been hit by that attack, they would have been instantly smashed to death, their body exploding into a mist of blood.
Fortunately,
at the critical moment,
the Level 20 Soft Hedgehog Armor put up a powerful defense. It resisted the blow, deflecting most of its Power and allowing Xu Qing to survive.
Moreover,
though he was injured, it wasn’t serious.
“Devouring Technique.”
HUMMM! HUMMM! HUMMM!!
Xu Qing raised his right hand and once again unleashed the Devouring Technique. A terrifying Mighty Power erupted, consuming the Hill Giant’s entire corpse.
In his mind,
countless mysteries of Frenzied Battle Intent instantly surfaced.
“Breakthrough!”
BOOM!
With a sharp cry from Xu Qing, the frenzied blood qi surged, growing impossibly dense. His aura climbed several times higher, and his eyes faintly turned blood-red.
“Haaaah…”
Xu Qing carefully examined his new state, contemplating the Mighty Power of his Frenzied Battle Intent. ’So this is the Mighty Power of the Fifth Level Frenzied Battle Intent? At full strength, it increases my combat power by a full sixteen times.’
’It truly is powerful,’
Xu Qing couldn’t help but marvel.
“Bring it on!”
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!
Xu Qing let out a wild roar. His Battle Intent seemed to boil, as did his very blood. It was only then that Xu Qing realized unleashing Frenzied Battle Intent required burning one’s blood qi.
In other words,
burning blood qi meant burning his own blood.
This meant that
the longer he used it, the more blood he would burn. If he ran out, he would die. This was the side effect of Frenzied Battle Intent. The first four layers also burned blood qi, but they weren’t frenzied enough, and the burn rate wasn’t fast enough to burden him, so he hadn’t noticed.
But now,
his Frenzied Battle Intent had reached the Fifth Layer. Unleashing it fully to gain a sixteen-fold increase in combat power now placed a corresponding burden on him.
However,
then again,
Xu Qing had the Devouring Technique. As long as he devoured true living beings, he could rapidly replenish his consumed blood qi and blood. He didn’t have to worry about the cost of Frenzied Battle Intent at all.
The two techniques complemented each other perfectly.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
The battle erupted.
After mastering the Fifth Level Frenzied Battle Intent, Xu Qing’s combat power soared several times over. The other two giant Ferocious Beasts—the Titan Giant Bear and the Giant Spirit Python—soon fell to him as well, both slain by his hand.
“Devouring Technique.”
HUMMM!
Xu Qing unleashed the Devouring Technique again, consuming the Titan Giant Bear and the Giant Spirit Python. However, his Frenzied Battle Intent only reached the peak of the Fifth Layer, failing to break through to the Sixth Layer.
“Is… is it over?”
On the battlefield,
Ye Langtian was pale, utterly spent, and severely injured. Seeing Xu Qing’s incredible display of power in slaying the three giant Ferocious Beasts, he was both shocked and overjoyed, thinking the beast tide was finally over.
“Not yet.”
But Xu Qing’s expression was grave as he stared into the depths of the mountain range.
HUMMM! HUMMM!!!
At that moment,
the gray-black mist churned.
ROAR!!!
In an instant,
a Ferocious Beast as large as a mountain charged out. It was even more enormous than the others, several times the size of the Hill Giant.
“That’s…”
Ye Langtian’s pupils contracted. He felt a suffocating pressure. This Ferocious Beast had reached the very limit of its kind—it was a peak Level 15 Ferocious Beast.
Looking closely,
Xu Qing saw that it was a colossal Ferocious Beast resembling a Qilin. Its body was pitch-black, and its scales looked as if they were forged from molten iron.
Moreover,
pitch-black flames rose from its body.
And,
the colossal, Qilin-like Ferocious Beast’s eyes were also crimson—utterly terrifying. Its aura was so powerful that even Xu Qing felt a sense of suffocation.
A top-tier Ferocious Beast!
An Ink Qilin!
ROAR!!!
Its roar echoed in all directions.
The Ink Qilin charged. It was so fast that Xu Qing barely had time to react. Its immense Power nearly tore straight through the defense of his Level 20 Soft Hedgehog Armor.
“ARGH!!!”
SPURT!
Xu Qing screamed in agony, spitting blood as he was sent flying backward.
One hit.
Just one hit.
And the Ink Qilin had severely wounded him.
“!!!”
Xu Qing’s pupils contracted. That brief clash made one thing painfully clear: he was no match for the Ink Qilin. His gaze shot to Ye Langtian. “Ye Langtian, kill yourself! Now!!!”
