Through the usage of an +10 Guaranteed Upgrade Stone and then an ordinary heaven-tier upgrade stone, Bai Yunfei was able to upgrade the parasol to +11 . It was without its difficulties, however, as Bai Yunfei had to alter the outcome once during the process .
This parasol wasn’t different than that of an umbrella based on appearances . Before, the parasol was only capable of providing adequate coverage of Shen Pojun, but after Bai Yunfei upgraded it, the parasol’s coverage expanded so that it could cover the entirety of its owner .
Its equipment effect was quite strong and was nearly on par with the +12 additional effect of the Returner Armor, but not quite . It had to first absorb an attack before it could re-release it, and even then, the parasol had limits on what attacks it could absorb .
“Ancestor, please bring back the next one!”
Bai Yunfei tossed the parasol back over to Shen Pojun, who grabbed it just in time to open it up and protect himself from a blast of elemental energy .
Once more, Shen Pojun regaled his soul armament with newfound excitement . Without hesitation this time, he had the shield-type soul armament whiz toward Bai Yunfei . By the time it reached his hand, the shield was already the size of his palm and had the shape of a caltrop token .
As he did with the previous two, Bai Yunfei swiftly took out a +10 Guaranteed Upgrade Stone…
Upon upgrading it to +10, Bai Yunfei tried to upgrade it to +11 . And after altering the outcome once again, Bai Yunfei was pleased to see that he had managed to do it .

Finished with the final soul armament, Bai Yunfei threw it toward Shen Pojun . As it traveled through the air, the soul armament transformed into the size of a door with a bright red and golden light encompassing its flight path .
“Phew…”
Bai Yunfei let out a sigh of relief . His painful task of upgrading Shen Pojun’s soul armaments was finally over! His usage of the Upgrade Technique wasn’t as numerous as usual, but doing so during a very tense battle was definitely a first for him . Thankfully, his first attempt was a success and the enemy never managed to capitalize on his distraction .
Bai Yunfei was filled with satisfaction . Three new soul armaments with increased attack, defense, and utility . And these effects were definitely what Shen Pojun could use right now in his battle .
……
It took no longer than twenty seconds for Bai Yunfei to upgrade the three soul armaments . Shen Pojun could hardly believe his eyes, but he had to admit the difference between their upgrade and now was as different as night and day . If not for his own senses being connected to the soul armaments, Shen Pojun would’ve thought himself to be stuck in an illusion of some kind .
He was, after all, an experienced ancestor of the Crafting School . Hardly any other person alive could boast of being more knowledgeable of soul armaments than him, so it came to him as an immense shock when Bai Yunfei mentioned the ‘Upgrade Technique’ .
Not even Gu Lianhun could believe his eyes when the three soul armaments renewed their attacks on him .
“What did he do?!”
It had been with wary eyes that Gu Lianhun watched Bai Yunfei . Though nowhere knowledgeable about the inner workings of soul armaments, he could at the very least understand Bai Yunfei had done something strange in the short amount of time to bolster those three soul armaments . The effects were so staggering that he would’ve refused to believe it if not for him being able to experience the changes firsthand .
It wasn’t as though avatars couldn’t use soul armaments, far from it . It was just that all his soul armaments were taken away by the main body over two hundred years ago . Due to his state of hibernation, Gu Lianhun’s avatar hadn’t the opportunity to avail itself to any new soul armament and was thus unable to create a soulbound armament . Using a regular soul armament was effectively useless since they wouldn’t be able to withstand his power . So in short, it was better for him to fight ‘empty-handed’ .
Previously, Gu Lianhun felt annoyed dealing with Shen Pojun’s three soul armaments, but now that they were upgraded, they went from being ‘irksome’ to being a down-right pain .
Were it his real body, or if his avatar had been at its peak, Gu Lianhun was sure these two enemies would’ve been snuffed out without a problem . Instead, they were turning out to be a real pain in the neck!
……
The following battle went on for ten whole minutes without either side having the advantage . The more energy he lost, the more Gu Lianhun began to grow sullen . Already Gu Lianhun was starting to think of conservative measures to keep as much energy as he could . Prolonging the battle would do nothing but harm to him!
He still had a soul attack he could use . Originally, this was something he planned to use against Shen Pojun at the right moment, but he didn’t dare to now that Bai Yunfei was here . Prior to his arrival, the reports from his school told him about Bai Yunfei’s ‘impossible’ feats, and one of those feats included being able to reflect soul attacks somehow . Many of those in the Soul Refining School had fallen prey to this specific feat, leaving him with no one to tell him how this was done .
In short, Gu Lianhun was very hesitant to use that soul attack now .
