I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely

Chapter 207: Chapter 195: Refining the Rank 16 Daoist Soldier

In the dead of night.

Xu Qing left his courtyard and went to a deserted alley, where he had arranged to meet Ye Langtian. He found Ye Langtian looking somewhat haggard.

“Master.”

Ye Langtian’s tone was reverent as he bowed to Xu Qing.

“Mm.”

Xu Qing nodded, sizing up Ye Langtian. “Judging by your complexion and your condition, you don’t seem to be doing too well lately.”

“Yes, Master.”

Ye Langtian nodded and replied, “Just a short while ago, ’Mysterious: Deserted Village’ came looking for me multiple times. It wants to pull me back into the Deserted Village for a second trial. I’ve managed to put it off and find ways to avoid it, but I feel like I can’t hold out for much longer.”

“Mm.”

Xu Qing nodded. “The reason ’Mysterious: Deserted Village’ is coming after you again is likely because I have cultivated the Devouring Demon Technique Second Secret Method to the First Transformation Demon Infant Realm and grasped the First Level Devouring True Intent.”

“I see.”

Realization dawned on Ye Langtian. “Master, what should we do next?”

“Let’s not rush that matter.”

Xu Qing waved his hand dismissively. “Have you prepared the materials I asked for?”

“Reporting to Master, I expended great effort and even sought help from Liu Ying multiple times, using the resources and influence of the Blood Demon Sect Branch. I have finally gathered all eighty-one materials you required.”

Ye Langtian said.

“Good, good, good.”

A smile spread across Xu Qing’s face. “Ye Langtian, you truly did not disappoint me.”

“Please inspect them, Master.”

Ye Langtian handed a Level 10 Broken Storage Ring to Xu Qing.

“Mm.”

Xu Qing took it and infused his Martial Arts True Qi into the ring. Sure enough, inside the Level 10 Broken Storage Ring, he saw the eighty-one precious materials he needed.

With this,

the smile on Xu Qing’s face grew even wider.

After all,

Xu Qing’s Taoist Skill: Xuanbing Talisman Art had already reached Level 10, a state of Extreme perfection. He could now refine Tier Sixteen Daoist Soldiers, beings comparable in power to those at the Sixth Level of True Realm.

Moreover,

a Level 10 Profound Soldier Talisman Technique could also create Level Three True Spirit Talismans.

However,

now that his Taoist Skill: Xuanbing Talisman Art was at Level 10, the materials required to actually create Tier Sixteen Daoist Soldiers were exceedingly precious.

It could be said that,

if Ye Langtian hadn’t become the second-in-command of the Blood Demon Sect Branch, and on top of that, been in a relationship with its leader, Liu Ying, it would have been utterly impossible to gather all eighty-one materials for refining Tier Sixteen Daoist Soldiers.

It had taken all this time,

but Ye Langtian had finally followed Xu Qing’s instructions and gathered all the necessary materials. Thirty-one types came from within the Blood Demon Sect Branch, while the remaining fifty were collected from various other places.

A great deal of funds and Primordial Stones had been spent in the process.

“Good, good, good.”

Xu Qing nodded repeatedly. “Ye Langtian, you have done very well this time. For now, you should head back. Once I have finished refining the Tier Sixteen Daoist Soldiers, I will go with you to ’Mysterious: Deserted Village’.”

“Yes, I obey.”

Ye Langtian nodded respectfully.

“By the way,”

Xu Qing asked, “what level have you reached in your Cultivation of the Devouring Demon Technique?”

“Reporting to Master,”

Ye Langtian quickly replied, “I have cultivated the Devouring Demon Technique to the Eighth Realm. The Blood Demon Sect Branch has been causing chaos everywhere, and I have participated many times. Not long ago, I even traveled to other Prefecture Cities.”

“I used the Devouring Technique to absorb the Origin of many living beings, using their Origin for my own Cultivation. That is how I managed to progress so quickly.”

“Additionally,”

“I have also mastered eighteen different types of Mental Realms. Most of them are at a low level. Aside from my Frenzied Battle Intent reaching the Eighth Layer of Perfection, the highest of the others has not surpassed the Sixth Layer.”

“Not bad.”

Xu Qing nodded.

Apparently,

compared to Xu Qing,

Ye Langtian was the one truly suited for the Cultivation of the Devouring Demon Technique. He had fully unleashed its potential and utilized the Devouring Technique to a Perfect degree.

The most terrifying aspect of the Devouring Demon Technique was that after mastering the Devouring Technique, one could devour all living things, refine their Origin to supplement one’s own, and advance one’s Cultivation and Realm. It could even devour the Mental Realms an enemy had comprehended, making them one’s own.

Xu Qing preferred to lie low in his own courtyard, practicing his Martial Arts daily to gain Experience Points and gradually raise his Realm.

But Ye Langtian was different.

He had joined the Blood Demon Sect Branch and needed to fight and conquer constantly. In one battle after another, he would devour his enemies, turning them into fuel for his own growth and increasing his power.

Xu Qing preferred stillness, while Ye Langtian preferred action.

SWISH!

Then,

Ye Langtian transformed into a Black Shadow and melted into the surrounding darkness. In the blink of an eye, he had vanished from sight, leaving the alley.

Immediately after,

Xu Qing also shot into the air. His speed was immense, and in an instant, he too had disappeared, returning to his residence.

「The scene changed.」

Inside the courtyard.

Xu Qing was back in his bedroom.

BUZZ! BUZZ!

Then,

Xu Qing sat cross-legged and began his Meditation, circulating the Devouring Demon Technique Second Secret Method. His pace was incredibly fast as his body and mind slowly sank into the process.

Time flew by, and the night quickly passed.

The next day.

In the morning.

Xu Qing did not continue his Meditation or circulate the Devouring Demon Technique Second Secret Method. Instead, he began the process of refining the Tier Sixteen Daoist Soldiers, which was divided into three main steps.
