Heaven-defying Upgrade System

When Liu Fei left, Liu Yanshou and the rest of the Liu Family sent him to Tianqi City. Each of them had given him some instructions, all of which were to prioritize his safety. After all, if Liu Fei could become famous in the battlefield in the future, he would be appreciated by the Great Wei Dynasty. To the Liu Family, the day of their meteoric rise was not far away.    

"Big brother Liu Fei, this is the sword formation I comprehended from the Flame Dragon Sword Technique. Take a look, it might be useful in the future." Liu Jin gave him a sword manual.    

When he saw Liu Jin, Liu Fei was slightly stunned.    

He was indeed a sword genius. In just a few days, he had actually comprehended a sword formation from the Flame Dragon Sword Technique. This caused Liu Fei to feel extremely surprised.    

Liu Fei accepted the sword Array Picture manual that Liu Jin had comprehended, then bid farewell to the people of Liu Family and embarked on the road to the south.    

After leaving Tianqi City, Liu Fei had traveled for a day and arrived at a small town. After passing this town, he would arrive at the boundary of another city, Phoenix Eye City.    

Liu Fei didn't have any rest at night. After reaching the Spiritual Core Stage, his cultivation base had reached the Spiritual Core Stage. He was able to maintain a good state of mind at all times. After a night of traveling with stars and moon, Liu Fei used the Flying Sword to fly for a distance. However, since it was his first time flying on a sword, he was not very familiar with it. Liu Fei only flew for a short distance before he used up a large amount of spiritual energy. He was not so stable when he flew, and he almost fell down a few times.    

No matter what, flying on a sword was indeed more efficient than walking on foot, and his speed was also much faster. If it wasn't for the fact that he was pressed for time this time, Liu Fei would have wanted to practice flying on a sword.    

Phoenix Eye City was located in the south of Tianqi City, and it was a medium-sized city. There were four or five families with major powers residing within it. There were also a dozen families like Liu Family, and the rest were small families. This place was much livelier than Tianqi City. After Liu Fei arrived at Phoenix Eye City, he didn't dare to hesitate. He found a place in the city where he could hire foot beasts.    

The foot beasts were the most commonly used means of transportation in the War God Continent. Some of them even ran faster than Flying Sword. If Liu Yanshou hadn't reminded him to rent a foot beast in Phoenix Eye City, Liu Fei would have wanted to reach the Southern Land. It would probably take a long time.    

"Boss, what's the price of this flying horse?" Liu Fei took a fancy to a Flying Swan Horse. It was twice the size of an ordinary horse. Its fur was gray and there were two small wings on both sides of its body.    

"Where are we going?" The boss asked.    

"White Cloud City in the Southern Land."    

The boss looked at him and said lightly, "Ten Low-grade Spirit Stone."    

"So expensive?" Liu Fei frowned. The boss did not say that he would use silver to trade. Instead, he used Spirit Stone to trade. One low grade Spirit Stone was worth a hundred silver taels. Ten of them was worth a thousand silver taels. This price was enough for an ordinary family to live their entire life.    

"Too expensive? Hehe." The boss sneered and said, "Why don't you take a look at this place? If you don't have money, you'd better not show off your wealth here!"    

" Whoosh! "    

Suddenly, a middle-grade Spirit Stone was tossed onto the counter.    

The boss's eyes lit up as he cried out in surprise, "Middle-grade Spirit Stone?" A middle-grade Spirit Stone was equivalent to a thousand low-grade Spirit Stone. That was practically half a year's worth of profit from the trader beast trading company! The boss looked at Liu Fei, and his expression instantly changed. He laughed and said, "Haha, this lord, this lowly one has eyes but did not recognize Mt. Tai! Please take a seat, I will bring you a top quality flying horse!"    

"En."    

Liu Fei nodded from his seat. The boss was quite smart. He knew he had said something wrong, so he hurriedly apologized to Liu Feidao and agreed to rent a good flying horse to Liu Fei.    

The boss also knew in his heart that it was a middle-grade Spirit Stone. This was definitely not an ordinary person. If he offended such a person, it would be difficult for him to do business in the future. It was also the shrewd part of the boss to agree to a superior flying horse for Liu Fei. If it wasn't for this, Liu Fei might not have even dumped him. Not to mention coming here again in the future.    

After a while, the boss brought a snow white flying horse here.    

"Good horse!"    

Liu Fei thought to himself. This horse was big and energetic. At first glance, it was much better than an ordinary Flying Swan Horse.    

"Please!" The boss smiled.    

"Let's go!" Liu Fei called out to the staff accompanying him.    

The attendant of the Foot Trader Beast Trading Company was equivalent to a coachman, and he was the one to drive the horse along the way.    

The Flying Swan Horse was extremely fast, and it galloped along the road. It was as if it was flying in the clouds, and a strong wind swept across its face. Liu Fei could feel the unique speed of this Foot Traveler. At first, he was a little curious and could not help but look around from behind. Looking at the scenery that kept passing by in front of him, he thought that it was really fast.    

But as time slowly passed, Liu Fei's interest gradually waned. He simply closed his eyes behind the shop assistant and closed his eyes to rest, then entered a state of cultivation.    

It had to be said that although the speed of the Flying Swan Horse was extremely fast, it was very stable on its body, so Liu Fei could cultivate in peace.    

Ever since the Heaven-defying System was opened, Liu Fei rarely cultivated. His cultivation had skyrocketed all the way to the top. The Divine Sense swam into his Zifu, and a clump of earthen yellow light floated within his Zifu. The surroundings were enveloped in a layer of faint mist, making it seem extremely mysterious.    

This was the initial stage of Core Transformation after the Spiritual Core Stage. At this time, the Golden Core was still in the illusory core state. After the continuous advancement of his cultivation base, he would be able to condense the Golden Core into a solid form, and that was the matter of the Heavenly Core Stage.    

Circulating the True Purple Cloud Spell, the spiritual energy between the heaven and earth slowly gathered towards him.    

As time passed, Liu Fei felt that he was cultivating like this. The growth of his cultivation base was very slow, and this was even after he had consumed a Purple Yang Pill. Under the premise that his talent was enhanced. Although he had advanced to a Grade Three innate talent, his cultivation speed wasn't much faster than when he was cultivating at the Zero Class Talent.    

Liu Fei's comprehension of sword intent was not that obvious, and he could not improve his cultivation by practicing sword intent like Liu Jin did. He could only train his cultivation through sparring puppets.    

Unknowingly, eight days had passed.    

"Sir, we've arrived at White Cloud City." The waiter turned around and said to Liu Fei who was behind him.    

"We have arrived?"    

Liu Fei heard the shop assistant's voice and opened his eyes. Although his cultivation base had increased in the past few days, the effect was just a drop in the ocean. A continuous stretch of mountains appeared in front of his eyes. Under the surging clouds and mist, he could vaguely see some buildings. They must be the White Cloud City.    

"Are we not going forward anymore?" Liu Fei asked.    

The waiter shook his head and said, "The Flying Swan Horse's stamina has reached its limit. It needs to rest here for a while. I'm afraid it won't be able to go any further."    

The Walking Beast had been rushing nonstop for nearly ten thousand kilometers. Now that it was finished, Liu Fei had no choice but to get off the horse.    

There was still about a few dozen miles to go to White Cloud City. Liu Fei walked towards the mountain alone. Occasionally, a ray of light would flash above his head. That was the Flying Sword used by cultivators at the Spiritual Core Stage and above. It seemed like there were a lot of powerful warriors gathered in White Cloud City. Liu Fei didn't want to use the Flying Sword for the time being. His Taiji Cyan Rainbow Sword was a supreme-grade Flying Sword. If someone could tell with just a glance that someone was eyeing his Flying Sword, although Liu Fei wasn't afraid of snatching it away, it would be a little troublesome.    

The White Cloud City was several times larger than the Tianqi City. Not including the army of cultivators that had recently arrived, the total population of the White Cloud City was over a million. The southern part of the White Cloud City was the territory of the Da Ming Dynasty.    

Along the way, Liu Fei stood at a high place and saw the White Cloud City slowly appearing in front of him.
