I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely

BZZZT!

Just then.

Li Shang had just finished speaking when Xu Qing once again felt another powerful, deceitful aura.

Moreover,

it was also somewhat familiar.

“!!!”

Xu Qing’s expression was one of astonishment.

Because…

…the figure that had suddenly appeared was none other than the “Deceptive Bride: Thousand Maidens’ Consort.” The Deceptive Bride: Thousand Maidens’ Consort was a great enemy of Xu Qing from his past. She was supposed to be dead, yet unexpectedly, the “Thousand-Faced Witch” had truly become a Consort of the “Fengdu Deceitful King.”

Now,

the Thousand-Faced Witch had become the “Deceptive Bride: Thousand Maidens’ Consort.”

Xu Qing’s second great nemesis…

…was, of course, this Li Shang.

And so,

Xu Qing’s two greatest enemies had gathered in one place.

“Xu Qing!”

CRACK!

The moment the Thousand Maidens’ Consort appeared, she recognized Xu Qing with a single glance. Without hesitation, she raised a jade-like hand. A crimson bolt of lightning shot from her palm, striking out to kill.

With a tremendous roar,

Xu Qing controlled his Clone Daoist Soldier, unleashing nine types of Sixth Layer Dao Realms. He swung the twin blades in his hands, sending out wave after wave of gleaming light.

BOOM!

The blade gleams exploded as the crimson lightning sent Xu Qing’s Clone Daoist Soldier flying.

With just a single strike, Xu Qing’s Clone Daoist Soldier was already heavily wounded.

Evidently,

in the years that had passed,

the “Deceptive Bride: Thousand Maidens’ Consort” was, after all, a Consort of the Fengdu Deceitful King. Her Cultivation had reached the level of “Ultimate Extraordinary Extreme,” but she was unable to comprehend Law Text and thus could not master a Pattern Technique.

Most importantly,

the “Deceptive Bride: Thousand Maidens’ Consort” still had an unresolved obsession—her nemesis, Xu Qing. Only by killing Xu Qing could she resolve this obsession and have a chance at mastering a Pattern Technique.

Moreover,

the “Deceptive Bride: Thousand Maidens’ Consort” had also mastered a support-type Divine Technique. This Divine Technique was called Deceitful Eyes. Once mastered, it could see through the appearance of many things and glimpse their true essence.

For example,

Xu Qing’s Level 20 Evil Ghost Mask, and even Ye Langtian’s ever-changing Divine Technique, would be somewhat countered by the Divine Technique: Deceitful Eyes.

The reason the Thousand Maidens’ Consort was able to tell at a glance that the person controlling the Clone Daoist Soldier was Xu Qing was because she had mastered the Divine Technique: Deceitful Eyes.

“Thousand-Faced Witch.”

Xu Qing’s expression flickered, his tone feigning the shock of a first discovery. “This… You… You’re not dead? How… how is that possible?!”

In reality,

when Xu Qing had previously disguised himself as “Tang Xuanzang,” he had already encountered the Thousand Maidens’ Consort outside Moon River Prefecture City. It was just that back then, the Thousand Maidens’ Consort had not mastered the “Divine Technique: Deceitful Eyes” and couldn’t see through Xu Qing’s disguise.

Because of this,

the Thousand Maidens’ Consort naturally had no idea that Xu Qing already knew she was alive.

“Hahaha…”

The Thousand Maidens’ Consort burst into laughter, her tone laced with both satisfaction and endless hatred. “Xu Qing, of course I wouldn’t die! Not only am I alive, but I will grind your bones to dust and turn your soul into a sky lantern!!!”

’The same old script.’

Xu Qing shook his head. Looking at the Thousand Maidens’ Consort and Li Shang, he shrugged and said, “Are both of your methods of revenge so similar? Can’t you think of something new?”

Involuntarily,

the Thousand Maidens’ Consort and Li Shang exchanged a look.

In fact,

they were both quite surprised.

Because…

…neither of them had expected that their greatest enemy would be the same person. It was just that Li Shang had no idea what Xu Qing’s real name was.

Now,

thanks to the Thousand Maidens’ Consort, he knew.

WHOOSH…

Li Shang took a deep breath. He stared at Xu Qing and said in a low voice, “So you’re Xu Qing. You’ve not only offended me, but you’ve also offended the Thousand Maidens’ Consort.”

“Your skills are nothing special, but you’re certainly good at making enemies.”

“People?”

Xu Qing shook his head and said with a smile, “Are you sure about that? Can the two of you still be considered human?”

“Die!”

CRACK!

A trace of fury appeared on Li Shang’s face. He raised his right hand, and streaks of light rapidly converged in his palm, condensing into a long, slender spear.

SWOOSH!!!

The slender spear shot forward, piercing through the air.

“Divine Power! Annihilation!!!”

BOOM!

CRACK!

With a single thought, Xu Qing controlled his Clone Daoist Soldier and unleashed “Divine Power: Annihilation.” It raised its right hand, and a jet-black bolt of lightning tore through the sky.

BANG!

A loud explosion rang out.

Xu Qing shattered Li Shang’s spear, causing an explosion. The jet-black lightning and the slender spear detonated in mid-air, turning into a cloud of scattered ash.

“A Divine Technique?!”

Li Shang’s expression was one of shock. “You’ve actually mastered a Divine Technique!”

Clearly,

“Divine Techniques” surpassed Martial Arts and Daoist Skills, touching upon “Law” and “Law.” Since Xu Qing had already mastered “Divine Power: Annihilation,” and it was his consciousness controlling the Clone Daoist Soldier, he could use the clone to unleash the corresponding Divine Technique.

“Die!”

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The Thousand Maidens’ Consort shouted, and eighty-one crimson bolts of lightning materialized around her as she unleashed an offensive Divine Technique.

“Divine Technique! Life and Death Talisman!”

BZZZT!

With a single thought, Li Shang also unleashed a Divine Technique.

“Annihilation!”

BOOM!

Xu Qing roared, pushing the Power of the Clone Daoist Soldier to its limit and releasing the Mighty Power of his “Great Success” stage “Divine Power: Annihilation” as much as possible.

The battle erupted.

RUMBLE!!!

All kinds of booming sounds echoed in every direction. Xu Qing’s courtyard was completely reduced to ruins, and the surrounding houses and buildings collapsed one after another.

…

「At the Youjia Inn on the official road.」

Inside the guest room where Xu Qing was staying.

PTOO—

Xu Qing spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale, and the image before him shattered. ’They’re truly powerful. Even if my real body were there, I wouldn’t necessarily be a match for the two of them.’

’And,’

’the Reincarnation Blood Sacrifice Array covers the entire Moon River Prefecture City, turning it into their home ground. After this, Moon River Prefecture City will be nothing but history.’

Evidently,

Xu Qing’s Clone Daoist Soldier had been destroyed by Li Shang and the Thousand Maidens’ Consort.

In fact,

at the very last moment,

Xu Qing had self-destructed the Clone Daoist Soldier, even detonating the sliver of consciousness infused within it, producing an incredibly terrifying destructive force.

Likewise,

Xu Qing suffered the corresponding backlash. A sliver of his consciousness was annihilated, and his own body sustained considerable injuries, requiring a period of rest and recuperation to recover.

’Li Shang, Thousand Maidens’ Consort.’

Xu Qing’s expression was pensive as he mused, ’My two greatest enemies are both connected to the Fengdu Deceitful King. The Thousand Maidens’ Consort, in particular, has even become his Consort.’

WHOOSH…

Xu Qing took a deep breath. ’I need to get rid of these two enemies as soon as possible. I can’t let them continue to grow stronger. However, neither Li Shang nor the Thousand Maidens’ Consort will be easy to eliminate.’

’Among them,’

’Li Shang is a special case. After this Blood Sacrifice, he’ll be able to recover to his peak state. He is a terrifyingly powerful expert who has reached the very end of ’Law’.’

’Moreover,’

’the Reincarnation Law I’m cultivating was obtained from Li Shang.’

In truth,

the reason Xu Qing had left a Clone Daoist Soldier in Moon River Prefecture City was because he thought the Court of the Great Zhou Martial Country might send a powerful expert to take charge at the last minute.

But in the end,

it turned out Xu Qing had been overthinking things.

From beginning to end,

the Court of the Great Zhou Martial Country sent no aid whatsoever. Not a single expert appeared, even as the entire Moon River Prefecture City fell into Li Shang’s hands.

Moon River Prefecture City had been cast aside like a sacrificial pawn.

At that moment,

within Moon River Prefecture City.

In Xicheng District.

Around Tianqi Street.

There were massive craters one after another. The largest among them was over a thousand meters in diameter—the terrifying destruction caused by Xu Qing self-destructing his Clone Daoist Soldier at the end.

All the buildings around the crater had been completely destroyed.

“Cough, cough…”

Amidst the ruins,

Li Shang crawled out. Although he wasn’t seriously injured, the self-destruction of Xu Qing’s Clone Daoist Soldier had left him in a sorry state. He was covered in dust and grime as he emerged from the rubble.

“Damn you, Xu Qing!”

Li Shang gritted his teeth, his voice seething with suppressed fury. “Don’t let me get my hands on you, or I’ll make you wish you were dead.”

“Li Shang.”

The Thousand Maidens’ Consort also climbed out of the ruins, though she had sustained some injuries. Her tone was ice-cold as she said, “Xu Qing’s life is mine to take.”

“Alright, I know.”

Li Shang waved his hand dismissively. “We don’t even know where Xu Qing is right now. All we did was destroy one of his Clone Daoist Soldiers.”

“Mm.”

The Thousand Maidens’ Consort nodded.

“Thousand Maidens’ Consort,”

Li Shang took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “I will now resume control of the ’Reincarnation Blood Sacrifice Array’ to recover my strength.”

“I’ll leave the rest to you.”

“Fine,”

the Thousand Maidens’ Consort said.

BZZZT!

As soon as the words left her mouth,

Li Shang soared into the air. He swiftly appeared at the very center of the Reincarnation Blood Sacrifice Array and sat cross-legged. His hands formed a seal, and illusory images of the Six Paths of Reincarnation materialized around him, faintly revealing an incredibly terrifying Reincarnation Law.

BZZZT! BZZZT! BZZZT!!!

Li Shang began to absorb and fuse with the Energy of the Reincarnation Blood Sacrifice Array.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!

Suddenly,

at that very moment,

just as Li Shang was about to enjoy the hard-won fruits of his victory, one terrifying expert after another appeared in the Void around him.

Each of these terrifying experts emanated a shudder-inducing aura of Law.

Clearly,

they were from various powers, and every one of them had stepped into the Third Realm. The reason they appeared at this precise moment was to snatch Li Shang’s prize from under his nose.

“The Fengdu Deceitful King Token is here!”

BOOM!

At the critical moment,

the Thousand Maidens’ Consort immediately took a jet-black Deceitful King Token from her robes and manifested it high in the sky, intimidating the assembled experts.

“A Holy Decree is here!”

“A Buddha’s Handwritten Decree!”

“An Immortal Sect’s Decree!”

“…”

However,

it wasn’t just the Thousand Maidens’ Consort who brandished an order; the other experts had also come prepared.
