Upgrade Specialist in Another World

“That’s it! You’re right! Liang Yinshen!! But why isn’t he dead? He definitely should be!” The spirit of the Core Stone replied with disbelief.

“Liang Yinshen? Him!? His soul was already beginning to fray when he escaped Tianhun. He should’ve died a long time ago...why is he alive here today?”

The spirit of the Soul Seeker’s Mirror suddenly interrupted.

“Hold on, hold on!!” Bai Yunfei interjected; he had been so surprised by their conversation that one of the nearby spatial fissures nearly collided into him. “What was that just now? Liang Yinshen? Is that who this person is? Is he someone you know?!”

“Yes! That aura is definitely familiar...he’s definitely Liang Yinshen!” The Soul Sealing Mandate’s spirit answered. “He was the monarch of the Liang Kingdom prior to the Unification. I remember he was an Early-stage Soul Saint at the time and disappeared after being beaten by Tianhun.”

“Hold on, what?!” Bai Yunfei’s eyebrows flew up on his forehead, “You’re saying...he’s an enemy from two thousand years ago?! But how?! Not even a Supreme Saint can live for two thousand years!”

“I don’t know either.” Replied Sealer. “But that aura is definitely Liang Yinshen! However...he looks very different than before.”

“Looks different?” Several moments passed before Bai Yunfei realized the meaning of its words. “Do you mean...He Possessed someone?!”

“Yes...definitely!! He Possessed someone and somehow extended his natural lifespan!”

After processing the Bloodsoaked Demon Lord’s soul in the past several days, Bai Yunfei was able to increase his strength to the levels of a Mid-stage Soul Saint. He was also able to learn a few things from the soul, such as the peculiarities of the art of Possession. From his soul, Bai Yunfei learned that although it was possible to extend the natural lifespan of a person by Possessing someone else, it wasn’t perfect. One couldn’t gain ‘eternal life’ through this method.

Through Possession, one could gain a new body with a fresher lifespan, but the lifespan of the soul was finite. Sooner or later, the soul would end up reaching its natural limit and unravel. Not even Possession could solve such an issue.

Possession wasn’t even something that could be done infinitely, either. The more the act was repeated, the more dangerous it becomes. Once or twice, the chances of successes would be high, but three or four times? Even if the person didn’t resist, it’d be very difficult for Possession to take place.

As such, it was supposedly impossible for Liang Yinshen to extend his lifespan for two thousand years. He had to have used another method to live that long, similar to how the Frostfeather Saint was able to live for so long. The Beast Taming School had effectively sealed his his body and soul from aging at all, allowing him to live for a tremendously long amount of time!

That’d easily explain how Liang Yinshen was still alive all this time and only came out now. He’d only be able to use his strength just once then!!

Wu Lie said before that Liang Yinshen’s aura was already weakening, and it was true. The man was just a few steps away from death. It wouldn’t be long until his soul would unravel completely and he’d die for real!

So...wouldn’t a battle to ‘stall’ for time be nice?

It was a nice option, but not the best one to take. Liang Yinshen was definitely going to try and finish the battle as quickly as possible; the man might be dying, but he was still far stronger than they were. Fighting him with any other thought than to defeat him would be foolhardy.

“Sealer, does Liang Yinshen have anything special? How did senior Wu defeat him before?”

Covered by a flash of red light, Bai Yunfei condensed the chaotic energy around him to form a sturdy barrier in front of him. It’d help to block any attack Liang Yinshen was shooting at them while he tried to learn more about his opponent.

“He has a powerful move called the Thunder God’s Judgement. It looks like an elemental attack so that when you try to stop it with a barrier, the thunderclap will immediately transform into a soul attack and go through it. Be careful, Yunfei.” The Soul Sealing Mandate answered. “He had a very powerful mid-divine Regalia known as the Thunder God’s Judging Halberd. It’s a lightning-type soul armament with the ability to inflict a soul attack. But that soul armament was shattered in his battle with Tianhun, I don’t know if it’s even usable anymore. You should be careful either way.”

“A Regalia like that exists?!”

Bai Yunfei was flustered at the thought of there being such a powerful Regalia outside the Ten Great Regalia. He was additionally shocked to hear that Liang Yinshen had a soul attack like that. Those were both an extremely powerful asset to have!

“Ugh!!”

Bai Yunfei heard a pained grunt, shocking him out from his own thoughts. Looking up, he watched as Shen Pojun was struck by a lightningbolt and forced back.

“Ancestor!!”

Preparing to leap up to help the man, Bai Yunfei was then abruptly aware of a series of chaotic energy and elemental lightning forming above his head. An attack was coming!

“Tch!!” Bai Yunfei clicked his tongue. Forming several handseals, he began to collect elemental fire to his arms before firing it outward!

The Chaotic Dual Dragon Burst!!

Two dragons exploded out from Bai Yunfei’s arms at once to collide with the lightningbolts. Together, the two attacks detonated and sent furious waves of soulforce everywhere.

That was just the prelude to Bai Yunfei’s attack. After the Chaotic Dual Dragon Burst was done, Bai Yunfei began to do another set of handseals to increase his strength!

First came ‘Coil’ Mode. Then came...Berserk Mode!

“Eh?!”

High above, Liang Yinshen was amazed by the sudden spike of energy in Bai Yunfei. He hadn’t thought Bai Yunfei would be much of a threat at first, but this increase of strength was starting to make him think otherwise. He narrowed his eyes. This wasn’t the time for any more elemental attacks, he’d have to go down and finish Bai Yunfei off himself!

“Whoosh!!”

A transparent image shot out from Liang Yinshen as he flew toward Bai Yunfei. This one was headed for Shen Pojun!

“An avatar!!”

Bai Yunfei was shocked. A Late-stage Soul Saint was already hard enough to fight against. But the opponent had a Mid-stage Soul Saint too?!

“Xiao Qi! Help ancestor Shen against that avatar!”

Ordering Xiao Qi to help Shen Pojun, Bai Yunfei clenched his teeth and began to gather another round of elemental fire to his arms...

“Roar!!!”

A second roar could be heard as two more dragons emerged from Bai Yunfei’s arms. The scales of the dragon were entirely black and violet in color; this was the strongest form of the Chaotic Dual Dragon Burst Bai Yunfei could do. In Berserk Mode, the attack was many times stronger than normal and made even Liang Yinshen wary about it.

The man raised both his hands when he was just about a kilometer away from Bai Yunfei.

“Crackle...crackle...”

Somehow, clouds above the chaotic space began to crackle with electricity. Countless rays of black violet converged behind Liang Yinshen to form the menacing figure of a giant demon. Cloaked in the chaotic energy around it, the figure looked extremely imposing.

The demon roared loudly once it was fully manifested. Raising its right hand to mimic Liang Yinshen, it brought forward its right fist to punch the two dragons!

“It’s coming! That’s the Thunder God’s Judgment!! Be careful, Yunfei!”

The spirit of the Soul Sealing Mandate cried out a warning to Bai Yunfei; Liang Yinshen’s ultimate move was coming!
