Upgrade Specialist in Another World Chapter 1238

Chapter 1237: Return to the Earth

Gu Lianhun wasn’t using any kind of secret technique. It was simply just a technique that used the power of darkness to form a very powerful giant around him.

But nonetheless, this technique had a peculiarity to it. This powerful technique of Gu Lianhun reeked of death—it was a technique that allowed Gu Lianhun to sacrifice his soul for power.

It was similar to Bai Yunfei’s Soul Ignition, but this technique required burning up the soul without the possibility of recovery!

One step at a time, the giant figure rushed for Bai Yunfei in a frenzied attempt to destroy both him and Shen Pojun.

Shen Pojun hadn’t been prepared for such an attack. Instead of facing a person thought to be self-destructing, he was instead being rushed by a shadow behemoth! Stunned, he watched as it drew closer and closer to them before it…suddenly dove into a completely direction downward!!

“No!” Cried Bai Yunfei, “He’s not self-destructing, he’s…he’s trying to run!!”

Run?!

A Saint of all people, running?!

Even Bai Yunfei found it hard to believe, but it was the truth!

Shen Pojun was well and ready to battle Gu Lianhun. His soulforce was nearly back to full thanks to the pill Bai Yunfei gave him. He himself was ready to use his strongest technique and already had elemental fire spilling from his person when Gu Lianhun was charging at him. When he heard what Bai Yunfei said, however, his eyes widened as he realized what that meant!

“No!! He’s planning to attack the school! After him!!”

The realization hit him like a ton of bricks. Gu Lianhun had given up on the idea of living and had decided to take out the Crafting School beneath them as his final act!

The power from a Saint’s final attack was terrifying to even imagine. If he actually did self-destruct in front of the Crafting School, there’d be no way for the school to survive!

“Bastard!!”

Cursing Gu Lianhun, Bai Yunfei and Shen Pojun dove down after the Saint at once!

Half a step faster than the two, Gu Lianhun descended down toward the ground like a meteor. Even as a giant behemoth, he was more than a kilometer away from Bai Yunfei and Shen Pojun and was well on his way back down to the earth.

Already, the chaotic energy around Gu Lianhun was starting to thin. Piercing the clouds that marked the boundary between, he dived for the mountain that was now in sight—Mt. Crimson!

The elemental energy around the three was in a chaotic flux due to the speeds in which they traveled. As a result, Bai Yunfei was unable to make use of the Core Stone and catch up to Gu Lianhun. Soon, Mt. Crimson and its terrain could be clearly seen along with the auras of the people gathered there.

……

Down below, in the skies above Mt. Crimson.

Twenty minutes had passed since Bai Yunfei first left to help Shen Pojun. Left there to ‘watch’ the battle, the Soul Kings were in a state of heightened tension despite not fighting. The explosions far above caused their hearts to skip a beat as they waited. Neither side could tell what was going on, but they could at least both agree that the battle was a heart-stopping one.

Hardly anyone could be blamed for looking to the opposing side every so often. There were people on both sides that wished to continue their battle, but until the one between Shen Pojun and Gu Lianhun was done, no one dared to move. 

“It’s still not over…? That shouldn’t be right, that Shen Pojun should’ve been killed by the ancestor, did Bai Yunfei actually manage to interfere?!”

It was an extremely pale Mo Ni that stared at the skies above. His fists were clenched so tightly they went pale from a lack of blood. 

Originally, he thought it’d take a little over two minutes for Gu Lianhun to kill Shen Pojun. Then, the Soul Refining School would be able to land the killing blow and destroy the Crafting School once in for all. In his mind, the appearance of Gu Lianhun was essentially the determining factor of their victory.

But he couldn’t help but feel concerned the moment since he saw Bai Yunfei fly upward. The longer he listened to the explosions, the more uneasy he felt. He knew a long battle was detrimental to Gu Lianhun!

Whether he believed it or not, Mo Ni knew that Bai Yunfei definitely had something to do with this prolonged battle—Somehow, Bai Yunfei was able to interfere in a battle involving Saints!!

It filled him with envious reluctance. Reluctance, since he wanted nothing more than to refute that ability. And envy, for Mo Ni found himself standing even farther behind from Bai Yunfei than he liked… 

“Eh?! Ancestor?!”

The sight of something jettisoning out from the clouds above caught Mo Ni’s eyes. Letting out a cry of excitement when he recognized the figure, he watched as a gigantic black demonic figure seemingly break apart the clouds to descend down to them!

“The Dark Guardian!! The ancestor has actually used that technique! Was that battle really so terrible?!”

He was horrified to see the figure. If Gu Lianhun used that technique, then that meant his avatar would no longer be capable of existing. The moment that technique ended meant the avatar would cease to exist and ‘die’!

“Haha! Our ancestor has returned! He was victorious!!”

People from the Soul Refining School began to cry out at his appearance. Even Dong Wanlei and those from the Wind Lightning School couldn’t resist the smile appearing on their faces. Their ultimate warrior was back, and with such power! With him here, the destruction of the Crafting School wouldn’t be too far away.

Inversely, those from the Crafting School began to grow pale with dread.

“Did…did our ancestor and Bai Yunfei lose? It…it can’t be…”

Someone stuttered, frightened by the sight of Gu Lianhun.

“…” 

Tang Xinyun found herself gritting her teeth. She too, was trembling, her eyes reflected the terror of her fellow crafters.

“Quit your lies! Bai Yunfei’s still okay! He’s giving chase right now!”

But then Xiao Qi’s words cut through everyone’s terror and caused them to look back up toward the sky.

As Xiao Qi said, everyone watched as the ‘cracks’ left behind by Gu Lianhun ripped open once again to reveal two bright-red figures!

And that was when everyone realized the truth—Gu Lianhun was running away, and Bai Yunfei and Shen Pojun were giving chase!

One was running, the other was chasing! Given a situation like that, one could easily see what the result of their battle was!

The joy evaporated from the faces of Mo Ni and those from the Wind Lightning and Soul Refining Schools at once. It was their turn to be horrified!

……

In the time the fighters from both sides were able to properly process what was going on, the giant behemoth was already in clear view of many while the two streaks of red were close behind.

The frightful aura of Gu Lianhun was apparent to everyone. Watching on in horrified fascination, everyone stared as the behemoth reached out with its right hand!

Chu Yintian and the Soul Kings from the Crafting School blanched in fright. Immediately, they circulated their soulforce to them for a defensive maneuver in response to this hand. Even Bai Yunfei and Shen Pojun were forced into action, choosing to propel themselves to come in between Gu Lianhun’s hand and the Crafting School. 

But that was when an unexpected situation arose. The giant right hand wasn’t coming for the Crafting School, but toward Mo Ni!

Just as a gamer found an overpowered skill book called ‘Item Upgrade’ in the hottest virtual reality role-playing game on Earth, something happened to the game’s system, causing his soul to leave his body and go to another dimension. Common sense dictates that he would be born anew then become the greatest overlord of this world by making use of his advanced knowledge. Not in this case! He was already dead. Only some fragments of his soul and that skill book managed to get into that dimension and merge with an ordinary common youngster called Bai Yunfei. This was the enormous Tianhun continent, where humans could be said to have no limits. There was a group of humans here who could cultivate the power of their own souls then control their bodies, the natural elements and even other people’s souls with that power! These special beings were called — soul cultivators. Come witness how the several fragments of the dead inter-dimensional traveler’s soul and that skill book, which was not governed by the laws of this plane, were going to help Bai Yunfei become a legendary soul cultivator and craftsman!
