I Can Strengthen Infinitely

"Among the Grandmasters present today, there are not less than twenty who have the ability to kill Grandmaster Chang. All of them have reached the pinnacle of the Five Qi towards the Origin realm, and if they take one more step, they will become masters of the Three Flowers at the Top. For me to guess who it is, it would be quite difficult," Hong Meng shook his head.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Meng took out a tortoise shell from his bosom and started his renowned divination.

Half a stick of incense later, Hong Meng slowly opened his eyes, filled with bewilderment.

"Apologies to all, I couldn’t calculate anything. This person seems to have a way of obscuring the celestial secrets, even I cannot divine his whereabouts."

"What?" Upon hearing this answer, everyone was taken aback.

Even the Divine Calculation Elder couldn’t figure it out. This must be an Immortal descending to the mortal world.

A feeling of depression enveloped everyone’s heart like a dark cloud.

"Everyone, the situation is unclear at the moment. I suggest we all stay within Celestial Secret City to avoid any unexpected events," Divine Calculation Elder proposed.

The group, though all Grandmasters, no longer had that reckless arrogance. They were well aware that there were always people stronger than them, and if they met a master who had completed the Five Qi towards the Origin realm outside, they’d likely be no match. If the opponent truly intends to kill, they might end up like Grandmaster Chang.

As a result, Qin Yuesheng and his group returned to Celestial Secret City.

Yet strange occurrences continued to unfold.

Bang!

With a huge boom outside Celestial Secret City, it signaled that another incident had occurred.

Once Qin Yuesheng and the others went out to check, they saw that another Grandmaster was pinned dead to the city wall.

This time, it was a Swordmaster known for his sword skills, pinned by his beloved sword to the city wall, devoid of any other injuries.

Once more, the mystery struck with quickness, leaving no clues, as another Grandmaster met such an eerie end.

Everyone present wore extremely grim expressions.

Undoubtedly, the one who killed these two Grandmasters wasn’t an enemy of theirs but taunting Celestial Secret City, likely hiding around its vicinity.

"This is outrageous, what does this mean?" Divine Calculation Elder roared in anger.

Being one of the owners of Celestial Secret City, he couldn’t tolerate such provocation, though he didn’t know who to vent his fury on.

After all, until now, not even a glimpse of the culprit had been seen.

Qin Yuesheng knew this situation was highly unusual, suspecting someone deliberately targeting Celestial Secret City. Since he hadn’t left in time, he was now trapped within, unable to escape. Anyone who dared leave would undoubtedly become a target, ending up like the Grandmasters pinned to the wall.

Without further hesitation, Qin Yuesheng swiftly pulled out the Time Holy Wheel from his Sumeru bag and smashed one of the Yellow Pearls atop it, determined to find out who’s orchestrating this covert assault.

After numerous uses, only two Yellow Pearls were left on the Time Holy Wheel. Having crushed another one now, only one remained, a scarce number.

Yet Qin Yuesheng couldn’t care less. Continuing to stay inside Celestial Secret City might cost him his life.

...

Ripples formed in the space around, and Qin Yuesheng’s figure vanished instantly, stepping onto the River of Time, taking a few steps upstream before sinking beneath its flow.

...

Celestial Secret City.

On the city wall, Qin Yuesheng focused intently outward.

Previously, he was dining in the banquet hall at this time, when the incident happened shortly after.

Hiding all his aura behind the wall pier, Qin Yuesheng laid in wait.

Minutes passed by, Celestial Secret City exterior remained eerily quiet, showing no signs of trouble.

Suddenly, a shadow approached from afar, striking the wall with an overwhelming force.

Peeking from behind the wall pier, Qin Yuesheng saw it was Chang Tieshan!

"Ugh!" Chang Tieshan didn’t die immediately, twitching his limbs and continuously spitting blood.

"Who is it?" Qin Yuesheng immediately called out.

Upon hearing the voice, Chang Tieshan strained to lift his head, slowly saying, "Hurry, run..."

Buzz!

Qin Yuesheng felt a jolt in his mind, shivered violently, and instinctively looked toward a distant direction.

Though seeing nothing, Qin Yuesheng felt the most wicked pair of eyes in the world appear before him, filled with extreme violence, slaughter, and despair, making one fall, crumble, at first sight.

Qin Yuesheng’s eyes reddened, blood veins flared wildly, clearly being affected.

"What is that thing?!" Qin Yuesheng felt deeply nauseous, immediately vomiting out stomach fluids.

"Quick, run!" Chang Tieshan yelled with all his strength, his head drooping the next moment, dying completely.

"Something’s wrong! Something’s wrong!"

The guards on Celestial Secret City’s wall, noting an additional person on it, shouted immediately. Summoning all his strength, Qin Yuesheng flipped over lying down, unable to see those dreadful eyes, gradually recovering as the abnormality faded, though he was left terrified.

"What could have killed the Grandmasters?" Qin Yuesheng, drenched in sweat, leaned against the wall pier, gasping heavily.
