I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely - Chapter 238 - 217: Blood Sacrifice of the Prefecture City, Li Shang Becomes a Deceit
Before the temple, the Abbot of Little Leiyin Temple pressed his palms together, looking down upon Moon River Prefecture City with a look of profound compassion. “All living beings suffer. Human strength is limited. In the end, this humble monk has failed to become a Buddha and cannot deliver all beings from the sea of suffering.”
“Amitabha Buddha!”
The Abbot of Little Leiyin Temple bowed his head.
“Amitabha Buddha!”
“…”
Around him, the senior monks of Little Leiyin Temple all bowed their heads, clearly expressing their deepest apologies.
“What is Little Leiyin Temple doing?”
“Why are they suddenly leaving Moon River Prefecture City at a time like this?”
“This…”
“…”
Inside the Prefecture City, the Ninefold Immortal Sect, Jixia Academy, Moon River Martial Sect, and the Yuehe Prefecture Magistrate’s Office had all naturally noticed Little Leiyin Temple’s movements and were confused.
In Xicheng District, countless commoners were in a panic. Many of them had come to believe in Little Leiyin Temple, becoming its followers. Seeing the temple suddenly leave the Prefecture City threw the people of Xicheng District into a state of terror.
The Prefecture Magistrate’s Office had no choice but to dispatch constables to quickly quell the chaos in Xicheng District.
Moreover, a large number of citizens actually wanted to leave with Little Leiyin Temple, and the temple accepted all the followers who wished to accompany them.
BUZZ! BUZZ! BUZZ!!!
To this end, the senior monks of Little Leiyin Temple drew upon their foundational power. To accommodate the followers and commoners who wished to leave with them, they created several more Suspended Mountains. Upon these mountains, they erected temples and buildings to house the people.
Time passed, and before long, another four days had gone by.
However, during these seven days, aside from the major commotion caused by Little Leiyin Temple’s departure from Moon River Prefecture City four days ago, nothing else had happened.
Furthermore, after Little Leiyin Temple left Moon River Prefecture City four days ago, its majestic Suspended Temple and peaks had long since vanished from sight, having gone to some unknown destination.
「On this day.」
In the morning, Xu Qing rose to his feet. ’We should get going, too.’ He had stayed in Moon River Prefecture City for seven days. According to his original plan, he wanted to see if the Great Zhou Martial Country would have any reaction.
As it turned out, in seven days’ time, there had been no movement at all.
Xu Qing had no idea what the Great Zhou Martial Country’s Court was doing, nor had he detected any activity from Li Shang’s side—not a single trace or clue.
Therefore, Xu Qing was somewhat disappointed.
After all, Moon River Prefecture City was a Prefecture City. Li Shang was about to conduct a blood sacrifice of the entire city, yet the Court of the Great Zhou Martial Country showed no reaction whatsoever, as if they hadn’t received any news at all.
One could only say that Xu Qing was thoroughly disappointed. He had originally thought the Court of the Great Zhou Martial Country would have some way of dealing with the situation, but now it seemed they weren’t going to react at all.
In that case, Xu Qing couldn’t possibly stay in Moon River Prefecture City any longer.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!!!
After several years, Xu Qing stepped out of the courtyard once more. This time, he most likely wouldn’t be coming back. At his side were Nine Tier Sixteen Daoist Soldiers. The Ice Daoist Soldiers and Vajra Daoist Soldiers were both present. Wu Yi, Wu Er, and Wu San had consumed Xu Qing’s upgraded Transcendence Pills, and their Cultivation had all reached the Extraordinary Extreme of the Martial Path.
Finally, there was Kaya, who practiced the Celestial Fox Technique. Even though years had passed and Xu Qing had provided her with ample resources for Cultivation, she had only reached the Nine-Turned Demon Pill Realm.
In fact, this pace was already very fast. Compared to other Demon Cultivators, Kaya’s ability to reach the Nine-Turned Demon Pill Realm in just a few years was enough to be considered a genius.
It was just that Xu Qing was basically using cheats, and Ye Langtian himself was blessed with great fortune, similar to a ’Child of Fortune.’ Kaya naturally couldn’t be compared to Xu Qing and Ye Langtian.
Half an hour later, Xu Qing had already left Moon River Prefecture City and walked out of its gates. As he departed, he glanced back one last time at the familiar, imposing city gates and the mottled, weathered city walls.
“Time to go.”
Xu Qing said, then turned his head away and didn’t look back. He started walking down the main road into the distance. This time, he would not be returning.
The destination for this journey was the Cangzhou Prefecture. The Cangzhou Prefecture was where geniuses from all over Cang Province gathered. It was home to Cang Province’s most powerful factions and was also its most prosperous center.
’If I think about it carefully,’ he mused, ’there should be a way to increase the practice speed of my Reincarnation Law in Cangzhou Prefecture. By doing so, I can gain Experience Points faster and also upgrade the Reincarnation Law more quickly. In that case, I’ll be able to break through to the Third Realm.’
SWOOSH!
Suddenly, as Xu Qing was walking along the main road at a moderate pace, a streak of light tore through the air. It was incredibly fast and came to a halt right in front of him.
BUZZ!
The streak of light formed a glowing screen.
“Master.”
Within the light screen, the figure of Ye Langtian appeared.
“What is it?” Xu Qing asked.
“This subordinate has already left Moon River Prefecture City ahead of schedule,” Ye Langtian said. “Also, the Blood Demon Sect Cangzhou Chapter has already relayed their instructions and orders to me. They have decided to abandon Moon River Prefecture City this time. The reason is that this situation not only involves the Master of the Reincarnation Ruins, Li Shang, but also the Fengdu Deceitful King behind him.”
“Therefore, the Blood Demon Sect Cangzhou Chapter has chosen to abandon Moon River Prefecture City.”
“Mm.”
Xu Qing nodded.
“This subordinate is currently on the way to the Cangzhou Prefecture. Based on my travel speed, I should arrive in about three days and enter the Blood Demon Sect Cangzhou Chapter,” Ye Langtian continued.
“Good,” Xu Qing said.
“Master, when will you arrive at the Cangzhou Prefecture?” Ye Langtian asked.
“Probably in three to five days as well,” Xu Qing said.
“Understood.” Ye Langtian nodded and continued, “In that case, this subordinate will arrive at the Cangzhou Prefecture first and scout ahead for you, Master.”
“That works,” Xu Qing said.
BUZZ!
The next moment, the light screen before Xu Qing dissipated.
In fact, this Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Technique was the third Divine Technique Ye Langtian had mastered in ’Mysterious: Deserted Village.’ It was also a support-type Divine Technique, allowing communication over vast distances.
It was indeed quite useful.
「That night.」
Night had fallen. Xu Qing was resting at an inn called Youjia Inn by the side of the main road, where he had booked several rooms.
Inside his room, Xu Qing sat cross-legged. He let out a slow breath, his expression shifting slightly as he gazed in the direction of Moon River Prefecture City. He murmured in a contemplative tone, “Let’s see what has become of Moon River Prefecture City.”
With a thought, he called out, “True Spirit Manifestation Technique.”
BUZZ!
Xu Qing’s hands formed a seal. He performed a Daoist Skill, creating a series of Dharma Seals and tracing a circle in the air before him.
Then, an image appeared within the circle, showing the small courtyard house on Tianqi Street in the Xicheng District of Moon River Prefecture City.
Inside the courtyard house, in what had been Xu Qing’s bedroom, a Daoist Soldier that had been sitting with its eyes closed opened them. It had the appearance of a young man clad in black, holding two sabers.
Evidently, this was a Tier Sixteen Daoist Soldier that Xu Qing had refined. He had used a Level Three True Spirit Talisman upgraded to Level 10 on it. Just like his Vajra and Ice Daoist Soldiers, this one had also been refined into a Clone Daoist Soldier.
Furthermore, because it had been integrated with a Level 10 Level Three True Spirit Talisman, the Mighty Power of this Tier Sixteen Daoist Soldier had increased tremendously. It had already reached the level of Elite Extraordinary Extreme and mastered nine types of Six Realms of Dao.
