I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely - Chapter 237 - 217: Blood Sacrifice of the Prefecture City, Li Shang Becomes Deceit

「On this day.」

「In the morning.」

WHOOSH!

Xu Qing looked up to see a streak of light tear through the sky. It entered his field of vision and landed before him. It was a manifestation of the Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Technique.

HUMMM!!!

Amid flashes of brilliance, the streak of light transformed into a screen of light before Xu Qing, revealing the figure of Ye Langtian.

“Master.”

Inside the light screen, Ye Langtian’s tone was respectful. He bowed to Xu Qing, his body emanating a terrifying Demon Intent. He, too, had reached the ’Ultimate Extraordinary Extreme’. “Your subordinate has passed the third trial of ’Mysterious: Deserted Village’. I have completely devoured the entire ’Ye Clan Mansion City’, mastered the One Hundred and Eight Six-layered True Intentions, and stepped into the ’Ultimate Extraordinary Extreme’.”

“Good.”

Xu Qing nodded in satisfaction.

Observing carefully, Xu Qing noticed that endless distracting thoughts and Demonic Thoughts swarmed within Ye Langtian’s eyes, yet he maintained a sense of clarity.

This was because an invisible power covered Ye Langtian’s consciousness and soul, blocking the endless distracting thoughts and Demonic Thoughts. This allowed Ye Langtian to use these very thoughts to hone his own consciousness and soul.

“There is one more thing.”

Ye Langtian continued, “As I was leaving, the old man from ’Mysterious: Deserted Village’ warned me to leave ’Moon River Prefecture City’ within seven days. He said that after seven days, ’Moon River Prefecture City’ will face an unprecedented calamity, and during this calamity, the entire Prefecture City will be annihilated.”

“What calamity?”

Xu Qing mused.

“It’s related to the ’Master of Reincarnation Ruins’.”

Ye Langtian said.

“This…”

Xu Qing fell into deep thought. “What are the specifics?”

“According to the old man from ’Mysterious: Deserted Village’, the Master of Reincarnation Ruins, ’Li Shang’, had already reached the end of the ’Law’. To step into a higher Realm, Li Shang underwent the cycle of life and death, reversing life and death itself, all to comprehend the ’Reincarnation Law’.”

Ye Langtian said slowly, “Li Shang originally planned to blood-sacrifice the major factions of Moon River Prefecture City. He intended to use the Life Origin of their experts to resurrect himself, return to his peak state, and break through the end of the ’Law’.”

“But because of your appearance, Master, Li Shang’s resurrection was not Perfect. Naturally, he won’t let the matter rest. He will make a comeback.”

“This time, Li Shang will blood-sacrifice the entire ’Moon River Prefecture City’. Only then can he return to his peak.”

“…”

Xu Qing’s expression was pensive.

Evidently, this matter was closely related to Xu Qing. If not for Xu Qing’s interference, Li Shang would have already been resurrected and even returned to his peak.

Now, Li Shang was about to make a comeback, and it would affect the entire Moon River Prefecture City.

“Why after seven days?”

Xu Qing asked.

“According to the old man, in order to perform a Perfect blood sacrifice of the entire Moon River Prefecture City this time, he made a deal with the ’Fengdu Deceitful King’.”

Ye Langtian continued, “In the beginning, Li Shang was a Qi Refiner of outstanding Talent and the pride of Moon River Prefecture City’s ’Ninefold Immortal Sect’.”

“However, after Li Shang stepped into the ’Ultimate Extraordinary Extreme’, he could no longer improve. He made not the slightest progress and was unable to comprehend the ’Pattern Technique’.”

“Then one day, Li Shang came into contact with a ’Demon Technique’, and from then on, there was no turning back. He revealed an unparalleled Talent for the Demon Path, transitioning from ’Immortal’ to ’Demon’. He comprehended the ’Reincarnation Pattern Technique’, stepped onto the ’Demon Path’, and became the ’Reincarnation Demon Venerable’.”

“And this time, Li Shang’s resurrection was not completely successful. To break through the end of the ’Law’, he made a deal with the ’Fengdu Deceitful King’. He is transitioning from ’Demon’ to ’Deceit’. It will take seven days to gather enough deceitful and evil beings to surround the entire Moon River Prefecture City, leaving no one alive.”

“Wait a moment.”

Xu Qing frowned and asked pensively, “And who is this ’Fengdu Deceitful King’?”

“I’m not entirely sure either.”

Ye Langtian shook his head and said, “Again, according to that old fellow, the ’Fengdu Deceitful King’ is an extremely terrifying Deceitful being. He established ’Fengdu’ within the borders of the Great Zhou Martial Country, and ’Fengdu’ is a place all Deceitful beings in the Great Zhou Martial Country yearn for. In the minds of all Deceitful beings in the Great Zhou Martial Country, ’Fengdu’ is their ’Sacred Land’.”

“Master.”

Ye Langtian continued, “After seven days, the entire Moon River Prefecture City will be surrounded by an army of Deceitful beings led by Li Shang. No one will escape death.”

“We must leave as soon as possible. That is an army of Deceitful beings from Fengdu. There’s no way we can fight them, unless the Court of the Great Zhou Martial Country intervenes.”

“Mm.”

Xu Qing nodded. “In that case, we should prepare and leave as soon as we can.”

“Yes!”

Ye Langtian nodded respectfully.

「Three days later.」

「On this day, at noon.」

“Amitabha Buddha.”

“…”

RUMBLE!!!

In Xicheng District, Xu Qing heard the commotion and looked up. High in the sky above the district, the Suspended Peak that held the Little Leiyin Temple was on the move. At this moment, the entire Suspended Peak, temple and all, seemed to be drawn by some kind of power, slowly moving away and out of the city.

At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before Little Leiyin Temple left Moon River Prefecture City entirely.

“Little Leiyin Temple.”

Xu Qing’s expression faltered for a moment. He mused, ’Are they running away? Or does Little Leiyin Temple also know what’s coming?’

“Amitabha Buddha.”
