I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely

Chapter 314 - 273: Ancient Battle Corpses, Demon Tree, Void, Fallen Angels, Hellish Evil Dragon

RUMBLE!

The Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array was shaking violently. The invisible light barrier rippled endlessly, and the Four Symbols Guardian Divine Beasts had fully awakened.

A single blow.

Just one blow.

The entire array had already unleashed its full Mighty Power. It had been just a hair’s breadth away from being shattered by that severed hand.

"This is..."

Xu Qing looked up, his gaze falling upon the severed hand with a grave expression. ’To think a mere severed hand could possess such Mighty Power.’

After all, just a moment ago, the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array, which Cangba Dao and the others had painstakingly set up, had nearly been crushed by that terrifying severed hand.

Shock.

Utter shock.

In truth, it wasn’t just Xu Qing who was stunned. Everyone present felt their hearts leap into their throats, especially Cangba Dao and his companions, who were utterly horrified.

"So what in the world is that severed hand?"

Xu Qing’s tone was heavy.

"Those are ’Ancient Battle Corpses.’"

Just then, Golden Cicada revealed the origin of the severed hand, his voice filled with a sense of mystery. "In the Ancient Times, the Human Race waged wars in every direction. Countless heroes fell, writing an anthem of war and blood."

"You have to understand."

"It was during the Ancient Times that countless heroes and prodigies used their own lives and blood to conquer many powerful races. It was only through their sacrifice that our Human Race was able to stand tall in this world and become one of the great races."

"However,"

"as time passed, Mysterious Phenomena proliferated. On the Ancient Battlefields, the corpses of the fallen ’revived.’ When they fell from those battlefields, they became these ’Ancient Battle Corpses.’"

"Most of these ’Ancient Battle Corpses’ are incomplete. They might just be a head, half a body, or, like this one, merely a severed hand or foot."

"The Mysterious Phenomena has desecrated the bodies of our Human Race’s heroes and prodigies. To us, this is a provocation—a form of revenge."

"Therefore,"

Golden Cicada took a deep breath. "We must allow our Human Race’s heroes and prodigies to rest in peace. We cannot let their bodies be desecrated by this Deceit even after they have fallen in battle."

"Ancient Battle Corpses."

"This..."

"Ancient Battlefields?"

"..."

The crowd couldn’t help but be startled.

For many, this secret history and the events of the Ancient Times were completely unknown. The things Golden Cicada spoke of came as a significant shock.

Take Xu Qing, for example.

He also knew nothing of the Ancient Times or the so-called ’Ancient Battle Corpses.’

"Amitabha Buddha."

BOOM!

Golden Cicada’s gaze was firm. He chanted the Buddha’s name, and with a single step, he shot out from the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array and beyond the city walls.

"This humble monk, Golden Cicada, has come to help you find peace, Senior."

Golden Cicada appeared before the severed hand. He pressed his palms together as a radiant Buddha’s Light shone from his body. The Power of Laws surged, and the Divine Beast Power of the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array’s Four Symbols Guardian Divine Beasts augmented him.

"Daluo Buddha Hand!"

BOOM!

Golden Cicada roared, raising his right hand to manifest a colossal palm of Buddha’s Light that seemed to blot out the sky as it smashed toward the severed hand.

Upon closer inspection,

the severed hand was enormous, far beyond ordinary. A terrifying, mysterious aura emanated from it, and it was as large as a mountain. An eye had even grown in the center of its palm.

BANG!

The sound of an explosion rang out.

The severed hand also struck out with its palm, unleashing a crushing power. More than that, it contained a will that was resolute, fearless, and utterly indomitable.

Clearly,

this was the unyielding will of the Human Race’s fallen heroes and prodigies. Even after countless ages, even after being corrupted by the Mysterious Phenomena and turned into a mindless anomaly, their will could not be extinguished.

It was as if their will was immortal.

Terrifying.

Truly terrifying.

"!!!"

Golden Cicada recoiled, horrified. His Daluo Buddha Hand had been shattered. He retreated swiftly, and with a single thought, manifested a Buddha Country, pulling the severed hand into it to continue their deadly struggle within.

It had to be said,

as the Abbot of the Cangzhou Buddhist Sect and its strongest member, Golden Cicada’s strength—augmented by the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array—was indeed immense. It was enough to contend with the severed hand.

BANG!

Just then, high in the sky, within the Blood Moon, an arm suddenly appeared. It held a blood-black fishing rod, complete with a line and hook, which it slammed directly down upon the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array.

CRACK! CRACK!

The blow struck, once again causing the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array to shudder violently.

"Spring and Autumn Pen!"

SWOOSH!

Deng Chunqiu roared furiously. He took a step forward, the Spring and Autumn Pen in his right hand and the Spring and Autumn Annals in his left. A vast, righteous aura emanated from him, suffused with the Power of Spring and Autumn Laws.

At the same time,

he was also augmented by the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array.

And so,

Deng Chunqiu charged out and engaged the ’Four Realms Anomaly: Fisherman.’ The two clashed high in the sky.

CRACK! CRACK!

Suddenly,

the earth around Cangzhou Prefecture split open. Immense, thick roots burst through the ground, each one twisting and coiling like a python.

RUMBLE!

The surrounding land trembled as a gray mist spread, but it was all held back by the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array, unable to advance or invade Cangzhou Prefecture.

Before long,

another terrifying Demon Fiend revealed its true form: a colossal, boundless tree, so vast it seemed to vanish into the clouds, its presence overwhelmingly powerful.

"Hiss..."

"What a huge tree."

"Heavens..."

"Is that really a tree? Its foliage is so dense, and who knows how many branches it has grown... it’s enough to blot out the sky. It must be over ten thousand meters tall, and its canopy covers a range of at least several tens of thousands of meters."

"It’s too terrifying."

"..."

The crowd was horrified.

Moreover,

they could see countless corpses beneath the giant tree. The corpses were entwined with innumerable branches, vines, and leaves, transforming them into bizarre Tree-men—like Puppets and subordinates controlled by the boundless tree.

However,

the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array continued to operate, forming an invisible barrier of light that enveloped all of Cangzhou Prefecture, keeping all the Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits at bay.

Naturally,

whether it was the ’Four Realms Anomaly: Fisherman,’ the ’Four Realms Anomaly: Handless Ancient Corpse,’ or the newly appeared, terrifyingly boundless tree, none could invade Cangzhou Prefecture.

If the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array were to collapse, all these mysterious anomalies and Demon Fiends would charge into Cangzhou Prefecture, and the entire city would face a calamitous disaster.

"Infinite Celestial Venerable."

BOOM!

Guanglingzi had also noticed the terrifying, boundless tree. He recognized its origin and said in a low voice, "This is a ’Demon Tree,’ a mindless Fourth Realm Demon Fiend. It acts on instinct, can control ’Puppet Tree Men,’ and its own power is extremely terrifying."

"Purple Sky Divine Fire."

Guanglingzi took a step, also charging out of Cangzhou Prefecture, his body augmented by the power of the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array’s Four Symbols Guardian Divine Beasts.

VWOOM! VWOOM! VWOOM!

Guanglingzi formed seals with his hands, took out a series of Dao Talismans, and activated them. They transformed into a sky full of Purple Flame that enveloped the ’Fourth Realm Demon Fiend: Demon Tree.’

RUMBLE!

The ’Fourth Realm Demon Fiend: Demon Tree’ was indeed rather afraid of powers like fire, so Guanglingzi’s ’Purple Sky Divine Fire’ was certainly effective against it.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

However,

even more Puppet Tree Men swarmed toward Guanglingzi.

The two sides were locked in a great battle.

Immediately after,

another supremely terrifying evil anomaly appeared. This time, it was an endless horde of ghosts, which gathered together to form a horrifying entity.

"This is the ’Four Realms Anomaly: Void.’"

Cangba Dao’s expression was grave. "’Void’ is formed from the aggregation of countless ghosts and Evil Spirits, becoming an extremely terrifying anomaly. It has mastered the Space Law and the Mysterious Law."

"This King will deal with it personally."

SWOOSH!

The moment his voice fell,

Cangba Dao charged out of Cangzhou Prefecture. He raised his right hand, and a Dragon-Headed Spear appeared within it. An extremely potent Power of Laws emanated from his body.

VWOOM! VWOOM!

At the same time,

the power of the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array also augmented Cangba Dao.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

In the next moment,

Cangba Dao was locked in combat with the ’Four Realms Anomaly: Void.’ Their fierce battle sent terrifying shockwaves rippling out in all directions.

Before long,

two more types of Demon Fiends appeared. One was similar to the Dark Demon Dragon, but it was not a Dark Demon Dragon. It was a ’Fallen Angel,’ a mindless Demon Fiend from the abyss.

The other was the ’Fourth Realm Demon Fiend: Hellish Evil Dragon.’ The power and strength of this Hellish Evil Dragon were even greater than that of the ’Fourth Realm Demon Fiend: Dark Demon Dragon.’

"Kill!"

BOOM!

Ye Qiuming roared, unleashing the mighty power of a Martial Saint. Boundless blood-qi surged as he engaged the ’Fourth Realm Demon Fiend: Fallen Angels’ in battle.

The two sides clashed, trading Divine Techniques. For the time being, they were locked in a stalemate, and a victor could not be decided.

Meanwhile,

the Cangxian Daoist also unleashed the powerful methods and Magic of an Immortal Daoist, clashing with the ’Fourth Realm Demon Fiend: Hellish Evil Dragon.’

Of course,

it wasn’t just these Fourth Realm Demon Fiends and anomalies that were drawn by the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array. There were also those below the Fourth Realm, forming a massive army that surrounded Cangzhou Prefecture.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

These fiends and spirits bombarded the Ten Thousand Spirits Four Symbols Array, causing it to ripple constantly.

"Kill!"

"Kill!!"

"Kill!!!"

"..."

The cries of battle were deafening.

「Cangzhou Prefecture.」

The many factions and powerful clans had also formed their own armies. They charged out of Cangzhou Prefecture and were already clashing with the army of Demons, Fiends, and Evil Spirits outside the walls.

The two sides fought relentlessly, their endless slaughter and earth-shattering war cries shaking the heavens.

At this moment,

the great war had fully erupted.
