My Crazy Upgrade System

Yi Tianyun had never feared the arrogant, because he was always more arrogant than they were. So what if his opponent was at the Spirit Pill Stage? Before him, they’d be killed in an instant all the same!

A single slap sent Elder Wei flying, knocking out several of his teeth. If his cultivation hadn’t been so high, the blow would have snapped his neck.

"Your face is tougher than I thought. I’m surprised that didn’t kill you."

Yi Tianyun shook his hand. He’d used his full strength in that strike, yet it had only sent Elder Wei flying and shattered his teeth; his head hadn’t been blown to bits. He had even activated his Dragon God Bloodline, and the rampaging power was several times stronger than anything he’d used before.

He had moved faster than Elder Wei to send him flying, leaving Ge the Patrol Envoy and the others completely stunned. ’Elder Wei isn’t even as fast as this kid?’

"You... you dare strike me? I’ll annihilate you!"

Elder Wei roared as a pair of Sharp Claws materialized, and he quickly slipped them on. Claw-type weapons were rare, but Elder Wei was one of the few who used them. These Sharp Claws were low-grade Soul Artifacts; one look at their five-inch-long blades revealed just how vicious they were.

A single vicious swipe could slice a person into several pieces. Even a mere graze would tear chunks of flesh from bone.

Yi Tianyun didn’t face him empty-handed; he equipped his Frost Fist. He couldn’t afford to be arrogant. His opponent was wielding a low-grade Soul Artifact and, crucially, was at the Spirit Pill Stage. After erupting with his full power, Elder Wei’s Combat Power shot straight up to 300,000!

This was far stronger than someone at the Peak Core Formation Stage. It was an absolutely crushing level of power.

"Gauntlets? I didn’t expect you to use gauntlets. Using a weapon like that in front of me is a death wish!"

Elder Wei was furious to the point of madness; that slap had utterly enraged him. The next moment, he once again executed Dragon Cloud Step and charged. In just a few quick steps, he was in front of Yi Tianyun in the blink of an eye, swinging his Sharp Claws in a vicious strike.

The sound of the claws tearing through the air was a sharp hum, and the glinting blades carved deep gouges into the very ground!

"Bursting Claw!"

A series of sonic booms cracked through the air. In the instant he struck, his speed surged once more, reaching a terrifying new level.

With this move, Elder Wei intended to kill Yi Tianyun in a single strike. He was holding nothing back.

The speed was so dazzling that no one could track the movement clearly. In the blink of an eye, the attack was right in front of Yi Tianyun. Shi Xueyun opened her mouth to shout a warning but realized the attack was faster than the speed of her own voice.

This astonishing speed brought knowing smiles to the faces of Ge the Patrol Envoy and his companions. ’Enraging Elder Wei is a one-way ticket to death!’

In that instant, a strange glint flickered in Yi Tianyun’s eyes. A cold light flashed in his pupils, and an icy domain immediately formed around him, causing Elder Wei’s attack speed to plummet. What had been a blurry afterimage a moment ago was now moving so slowly that everyone could see it with perfect clarity.

"Freeze!"

BAM!

The effect of the Frost Fist erupted, instantly freezing the charging Elder Wei solid. He was completely immobile, like an ice sculpture.

The next moment, Yi Tianyun swung his palm and viciously slapped Elder Wei, sending him flying again. Another slap, just like that, sent him tumbling through the air. All of his teeth were about to fall out. It was the same treatment Ge the Patrol Envoy had received—slapped until he was toothless, his face swollen beyond recognition.

After tumbling several times, the ice encasing Elder Wei shattered, and he recovered his mobility. He slapped the ground and shot to his feet, his eyes, now fixed on Yi Tianyun, filled with terror!

’I was suddenly unable to move, completely frozen stiff. In a duel to the death, how could anything be more terrifying?’ ’Thank goodness he didn’t just stab me. If he had, I’d be dead for sure.’

Of course, Yi Tianyun had no intention of ending his life so quickly. He wanted to get a feel for the power of a Spirit Pill Stage expert to better gauge the strength of his future opponents.

"What’s wrong? Weren’t you going to kill me?" Yi Tianyun asked, spreading his hands. Inwardly, he assessed the ability’s effect. ’It can freeze for five seconds at most. The higher the opponent’s cultivation, the shorter the duration. I already knew that.’

’Too bad the weapon’s effect doesn’t improve with my cultivation, only with the weapon’s grade. If it scaled with my cultivation, it would be absolutely heaven-defying.’

The other Patrol Envoys and elders who witnessed this were utterly dumbfounded. A Spirit Pill Stage expert had been slapped twice! The first slap could be excused as carelessness, but the second one was a different story entirely.

Shi Xueyun let out a deep sigh of relief. Her heart had been lodged in her throat; she had been terrified that Yi Tianyun would be torn to shreds by those claws.

"You... what kind of unorthodox Martial Arts is that!" Elder Wei demanded coldly.

"Is that important?" This question was becoming Yi Tianyun’s catchphrase, as his opponents couldn’t help but ask it whenever they found themselves in this kind of situation.

It was simply too unorthodox, a type of Martial Arts they had never even heard of before, which was why they were so shocked.

Elder Wei’s face was grim. He, a mighty Spirit Pill Stage expert, was being toyed with, completely at his opponent’s mercy!

"What’s the matter, cat got your tongue? Then it’s my turn to attack. Let’s finish this quickly and not waste any more time." Yi Tianyun’s eyes narrowed as he began to summon the power within his body.

"Activate Mad Damage Mode!"

"Activate Mad Experience Mode!"

BOOM!

Upon activating Mad Damage Mode, his power instantly quadrupled. His Combat Power increased explosively. Starting from his original base Combat Power of over one hundred thousand, it was brutally multiplied by four, reaching 390,000!

Since armor also contributed to his Combat Power, the enhancement was applied to his total existing strength. The Dragon God Bloodline also had a fourfold multiplier effect, so his final stacked power reached 390,000!

And his opponent? Even with his weapon equipped, he barely had over 300,000 Combat Power—320,000 at the absolute most. Yi Tianyun had now reached 390,000, completely overwhelming him! If he hadn’t broken through two cultivation levels recently, he truly wouldn’t have been able to surpass Elder Wei.

The original base power was the most important factor. Without a formidable cultivation level, even a four-times multiplier was useless.

An explosive aura surged out from him in a tyrannical wave, sweeping over everyone present. Horror welled up from deep within their hearts, and they all had the exact same thought.

’A Spirit Pill Stage expert!’

’This aura is even a level stronger than Elder Wei’s. Doesn’t that mean Yi Tianyun’s cultivation has reached the Spirit Pill Stage?’

"Oh, and by the way," Yi Tianyun suddenly added, "that expert you all heard about? That was me."
