I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely - Chapter 298 - 262: Rational and Irrational

“Master Ouyazi.”
Young Master Wen Shu bowed slightly to Xu Qing, his tone respectful. “The Ten Thousand Spirits Needles are one of the foundational Array Artifacts for setting up the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array. In total, one hundred twenty-nine thousand and six hundred are required.”
“Of course,”
“it would be impossible to have you refine all one hundred twenty-nine thousand, six hundred of them. The major powers in the Cangzhou Prefecture have plenty of Refiners who can handle the refining.”
“However,”
“among these one hundred twenty-nine thousand, six hundred Ten Thousand Spirits Needles, one hundred and eight are ’True Ten Thousand Spirits Needles.’ They play a much more significant role. Ordinary Refiners would find them difficult to create, and even if they succeeded, the results wouldn’t meet the requirements for the array.”
“Therefore,”
“we need you, Master Ouyazi, to personally forge these one hundred and eight True Ten Thousand Spirits Needles.”
“Furthermore,”
Young Master Wen Shu continued, “due to the importance of the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array, you must first refine a single True Ten Thousand Spirits Needle. The Prince and the others will inspect it, and only after they confirm there are no issues can we entrust this entire matter to you.”
“I hope you can understand.”
“I understand.”
Xu Qing smiled. “I am well aware.”
“Then we’ll be troubling you, Master Ouyazi.”
Young Master Wen Shu said.
“Very well.”
Xu Qing nodded.
Immediately after, Young Master Wen Shu departed.
「That same day.」
Xu Qing summoned Cloud Ascendant Zhenren.
「Inside a room in the courtyard.」
“Master.”
Cloud Ascendant Zhenren kowtowed to Xu Qing. “Master, what are your instructions?”
“It’s nothing major.”
Xu Qing said, “I was fortunate enough to acquire a Treasure Pill that should be of some help to you. After some thought, I’ve decided to give it to you.”
As soon as his voice fell, Xu Qing took out a Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill.
“This is…”
Cloud Ascendant Zhenren was stunned for a moment. He saw the Elixir in Xu Qing’s hand, which emanated a fragrant medicinal aroma. It was indeed a rare Treasure Pill.
“Take it.”
Xu Qing waved his right hand.
SWISH!
The Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill flew toward Cloud Ascendant Zhenren. He swiftly caught the elixir and contemplated for a moment.
“Thank you for bestowing this elixir, Master.”
Cloud Ascendant Zhenren then consumed the Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill.
GULP!
He swallowed the elixir.
VMMMM!
The effects of the Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill began to take hold. Cloud Ascendant Zhenren sat cross-legged and gradually absorbed the energy from the Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill.
「Two hours later.」
Cloud Ascendant Zhenren opened his eyes. His power had increased somewhat. He had completely absorbed the energy from the Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill and mastered another Martial Arts Law.
At the same time, he knelt on the ground.
“Your subordinate, Zhang Feng, greets you, Master.”
“Mm.”
Xu Qing’s expression was calm. He nodded and said, “Zhang Feng, you will continue to be my disciple. In addition, I have a task for you.”
“Please give me your orders, Master.”
Cloud Ascendant Zhenren quickly corrected himself.
SWISH!
With a wave of his right hand, Xu Qing assigned the task of refining the True Ten Thousand Spirits Needles to Cloud Ascendant Zhenren, letting him handle the refining.
’When the time comes, even if Cloud Ascendant Zhenren fails the refining, it doesn’t matter. I can just upgrade it using the Encyclopedia of All Things. There won’t be any problems.’
“Master,”
Cloud Ascendant Zhenren said, “I may not be able to refine it successfully.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Xu Qing said, “Just focus on the refining.”
“Yes.”
Cloud Ascendant Zhenren nodded respectfully.
「Late at night, in the bedroom.」
VMMMM!
A streak of light tore through the air and stopped in front of Xu Qing, forming a light screen. Within the screen, the face of Ye Langtian appeared.
“Master.”
Ye Langtian greeted him with a respectful tone.
“Mm.”
Xu Qing nodded. “Ye Langtian, I have something to ask you.”
“Please ask, Master.”
Ye Langtian said.
“How much do you know about the Cangzhou Prefecture’s preparations to set up the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array?”
Xu Qing asked.
“I do know a few things,”
Ye Langtian replied. “The Cangzhou Prefecture’s Marquis Token, the Cangzhou Immortal Sect, the Cangzhou Martial Sect, the Cangzhou Academy Palace, the Cangzhou Daoist Temple, and the Cangzhou Buddhist Sect.”
“A total of six top-tier influences.”
“Facing the impending crisis, these influences have joined forces. They’ve mobilized vast resources to prepare for the deployment of the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array.”
“When the time comes, this great array will envelop the entire Cangzhou Prefecture, protecting it and fending off the impending invasion of Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits.”
“Mm.”
Xu Qing pondered for a moment, then continued to ask, “Which Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits are about to invade the Cangzhou Prefecture? Do you know? And what is the Blood Demon Sect Cangzhou Chapter’s reaction?”
“Master,”
Ye Langtian considered for a moment, then continued, “The danger facing the Cangzhou Prefecture this time is not from the Blood Demon Sect, nor the Demon Sect, nor the Demon Race, nor any of those deceitful factions.”
“It’s the ’mindless Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits’.”
“What do you mean?”
Xu Qing frowned.
“Master,”
Ye Langtian continued, “Among the Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits, there are different classifications. They are mainly divided into two types: the rational and the mindless.”
“For example,”
“take the Blood Demon Sect, or those on the Demon Path who practice Demon Techniques, or the Demon Race, or even deceitful factions like the Deceitful Palace.”
“All of these Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits possess ’rationality’.”
“However,”
“besides these ’rational’ Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits, there are also ’mindless’ ones. Those mindless Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits have no reason, no intelligence, and no Spirituality. They only act on instinct, or according to their inherent laws, destroying and devouring everything around them to strengthen themselves.”
“Currently,”
“the Emperor Dragon Qi of the Great Zhou Martial Country has vanished. Without its suppression, these ’mindless Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits’ are gradually reawakening. The many cities and villages within the Great Zhou Martial Country have become like exposed cakes, attracting them one after another.”
