Tian Du City.
Sword Card Master Association.
As the lightning cracks flickered, the Original Card returned to reality. Endless radiance burst out from the lightning cracks, projecting a three-dimensional scene above the Original Card.
It seemed to be a lakeside.
The surface of the lake was sparkling.
The scenery was beautiful and illusory.
A man walked out from a picturesque painting, half lying in the lake, revealing an almost perfect body and a face that could topple cities.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Xiao Bai was speechless.
The two of them looked at each other in dismay.
Obviously …
No one expected to see such a scene in the Original Card!
"Who is this?"
Lu Ming looked grave. This was the first time he saw someone with such good looks! He was almost as good-looking as him!
"I don't know."
Xiao Bai shook her head.
She had never seen this person before.
"This is strange."
Lu Ming was puzzled.
However, when he swept his gaze across the man's hair and saw a small tuft of green at the fringe, he suddenly understood …
Green fringe?
Oh.
Crap.
Damn! Isn't this Xiao-Xiaojian?
This guy must have imagined this appearance in the Original Card!
"…"
Xiao Bai was speechless at the sight of the green fringe. She lowered her head and glanced at Xiao Bai, who was beside her, before looking at the scene in silence.
It was a long story.
Xiao Bai was speechless.
Right then.
The scene changed.
Xiao-Xiaojian got up and looked coldly at the tortoise in the lake.
"Scoundrel!
"Lu Ming!
"Why aren't you kneeling after seeing me?!
"Humph!
"I read a biology textbook a few days ago. It says that humans are also mammals. To put it bluntly, they are just high-level beasts. They are far from spirit bodies like us!
"You are beasts!"
Xiao-Xiaojian said in a clear voice, "Kneel down! Call me daddy! "
Xiao Bai was speechless.
？？？
Lu Ming's face was ghastly pale.
Oh.
It turned out that Xiao-Xiaojian had been thinking about this all the time?
Hahahaha.
After a while …
Xiao-Xiaojian looked toward the goldfish in the water.
"Xiao Bai!"
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring your daughter to me!"
"It's your good fortune that I like Xiao-Xiaobai! He will make Xiao Bai the Empress, and your status will rise accordingly. It won't be a problem for you to take down Lu Ming! "
Xiao-Xiaojian said proudly.
Lu Ming: "…"
Xiao Bai: "…"
？？？
Xiao Bai's young face didn't look too good either.
She suddenly felt that she had been too lenient with Xiao-Xiaojian these past two days.
At this very moment …
In the sea of consciousness.
A certain Black Cat's mouth curled up into a motherly smile.
In the blink of an eye.
On the screen.
Xiao-Xiaojian patrolled the lakeside proudly like an emperor. However, just as it was feeling the most smug, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky.
A dark shadow quietly descended.
Xiao-Xiaojian floated away and merged with the shadows.
"What's that?"
Lu Ming was shocked.
Shua!
The scene froze.
Lu Ming zoomed in on the dark shadow and took a closer look. He was shocked to discover that it was actually an iron sword! A rusty iron sword!
Swoosh!
The iron sword shone brightly and disappeared into the sky instantly.
At this moment.
The scene disappeared.
The Lightning Original Card regained its calmness.
"That sword …"
Lu Ming suddenly understood something.
"Xiao-Xiaojian has been taken away?"
Xiao Bai was shocked.
"No."
Lu Ming shook his head.
How could anyone possibly take Xiao-Xiaojian away!
If Xiao-Xiaojian could leave the Original Card at will, it would have long left! Who could take away a card spirit in the Original Card without making a sound?!
Furthermore …
That sword!
Lu Ming sensed a familiar aura. It was exactly the same as Xiao-Xiaojian's aura! In that case … there was only one possibility!
That sword …
It was Xiao-Xiaojian's sword body!
It was also the place where Xiao-Xiaojian was born!
And now, under the summon of the sword body, Xiao-Xiaojian had returned!
"It has gone back."
Lu Ming sighed. "It has returned to the place where it belongs."
"Huh?"
Xiao Bai was puzzled.
It had gone back …?
Was she too ruthless when she was experimenting?
"It has nothing to do with you."
Lu Ming sighed. "Perhaps, that is where it belongs."
Xiao-Xiaojian was after all a sword!
Perhaps, it had been too aggrieved in the Original Card in the past. When it sensed the return of the sword body, it left directly!
Would Xiao-Xiaojian leave?
Yes.
Lu Ming knew that this day would come sooner or later.
Xiao-Xiaojian had been constantly improving its strength so that it could become more powerful one day! Therefore, Lu Ming was long prepared. However, he never thought that …
Xiao-Xiaojian would leave so suddenly!
Perhaps …
The Original Card was really not suitable for it.
Perhaps …
It was precisely because of this that it could not wait to leave.
Hence …
Lu Ming opened the "Hundred Poisons" webpage and searched for information about spirit bodies leaving on their own. He wanted to find out if spirit bodies would really leave on their own …
However …
At this moment …
Buzz —
His wristband communication device vibrated. Lu Ming instinctively tapped on it.
"Hello, is this Lu Ming?"
A hoarse voice could be heard from the other end.
"It's me."
Lu Ming's voice was low.
"Your spirit body is in my hands. Hurry up and hand over a million yuan ransom. Send it to the designated location before this afternoon. Otherwise, the consequences …"
The other end said coldly.
Bam!
Before he could finish his words, Lu Ming hung up the phone.
To hell with the consequences!
I have just finished searching for "Hundred Poisons" and you have already sent me a message!
This was too much!
Lu Ming knew that many unscrupulous search engines made money by selling personal privacy. However, he did not expect them to be that unscrupulous!
Besides, he was searching for spirit bodies!
How could they kidnap spirit bodies?!
How stupid!
"Xiao Bai!
"Remember.
"In the future, when you use search engines, don't write real information."
Lu Ming instructed.
"Okay."
Xiao Bai replied obediently.
However …
She asked in a daze, "Master, do you think it's possible that it's true?"
"How is that possible?!"
Lu Ming sighed.
Kidnapping …
Boring scam calls!
They clearly saw that Xiao-Xiaojian had returned to the sword body! It was a sword spirit. How could it be kidnapped?!
Buzz —
His wristband vibrated again.
Lu Ming took a glance. It was the same number.
"Your spirit body is in my hands. Hurry up and hand over a million yuan ransom. Otherwise …"
The other end said furiously.
"Tear it."
Lu Ming pursed his lips. "Don't you know that there are thousands of spirit bodies in our association?"
Bam!
Lu Ming hung up the phone again.
Rubbish!
Did he still want to lie to him?
How could that be possible!
Who in his family had heard of kidnapping spirit bodies?!
This time, not only did he hang up the phone, he even blacklisted the other party!
However …
Come to think of it …
Wasn't this call a little too fast?
Lu Ming suddenly squinted his eyes.
"Brother Mao …
"Don't you know what Xiao-Xiaojian is thinking?
"Perhaps.
"Can we take a look in the Sea of Consciousness?"
…
Somewhere.
In the mountain range.
Beams of lights soared into the sky, seemingly wanting to break through the clouds. The thunderbolts in the sky seemed to be very furious with the challenge of this light figure!
However …
Just as the light figure reached the clouds and the thunderbolts were about to descend, the dash of the light figure would come to an abrupt halt and then fall back.
This happened again and again.
Once …
Twice …
In the end …
The lights that soared to the sky dissipated.
In the sky.
The dark clouds that filled the sky and the terrifying power of the thunderbolts paused in the sky for a long time, seemingly unable to understand what was happening. They could only slowly dissipate.
Of course.
If the thunderbolts had their own consciousness, those dark clouds might have formed into a f * cking retarded form …
Under the dark clouds.
At the place where the lights and shadows struck.
An elder sat cross-legged, looking at the gradually fading lights. He felt somewhat bitter.
In the end …
He still failed.
This was already the 2,337th time he was trying to break through to seven-star! For the past ten years, the only thing he did was to break through to seven-star! Over and over again!
However …
The threshold of seven-star was like a towering mountain!
It was hard to shake!
"Why …
"Why can't I break through!"
The elder clenched his fists.
Talent …
Was talent really that important?!
These two days, he had been watching Qiu Shuyi's live stream and heard about the stories of others who broke through overnight. However, he did not feel anything at all!
He actually could not understand what Qiu Shuyi was saying!
Yes.
He could not understand at all!
Comprehension …
Talent …
What could he do about this?
Give up?
It was impossible!
Over the past few decades, in order to climb higher and further, he had used all means possible to improve his talent and comprehension. It wasn't easy for him to reach this step!
How could he give up?
He was only one step away from seven-star!
After a long time …
He stood up.
His gaze fell on a rock not far away. There was a rusty iron sword on top of a dirty rock. Occasionally, it would shimmer.
Sky Water Sword.
An ancient legacy Excalibur!
According to legend, this sword was psychic. Mastering it would mean mastering the power of water! There was once a senior who wielded this sword and went on a killing spree. He was invincible!
Rivers, lakes, and seas were all under his control!
That senior.
That sword.
They were all legends of ancient times!
It was a pity …
Later on, there was a drought …
"Rise!"
He raised his hands slightly.
Sky Water Sword floated quietly and flew into his hands.
Ten years ago, he had obtained this sword in some ruins. After studying it every day, he finally understood the secret of this sword. Apart from the Sky Water Sword's own ability, this sword also had a secret technique that could raise one's talent! It was also because of this secret skill that he could constantly improve!
He was originally a good-for-nothing who stopped at Three Star but he rushed to the peak of Six Star!
However …
It was far from enough!
If he wanted to reach seven-star, he had to have better talent!
Since ordinary means did not work, he eventually placed his only hope on Sky Water Sword!
This sword could enhance one's talent in its normal state. If he could activate it and awaken the legendary sword spirit, would he become stronger?!
Hence …
From that day onwards, he fed it with blood every day. Until now, he had finally succeeded in making it recognize him as its owner!
However …
He was surprised that this Excalibur seemed to be different from what he had imagined.
Not only did it not have the power of the Excalibur, but it had also lost a lot of memory. It could not remember anything about ancient times!
He knew nothing about how to improve his talent!
This sword spirit …
He was actually a good-for-nothing!
"How do I improve my talent?"
The old man's expression was cold.
"I don't know."
Xiao-Xiaojian had tears in its eyes.
Something like increasing one's innate talent …
It really didn't know.
It was in a daze when Xiao Bai electrocuted it. It didn't expect that someone would activate the original blade and forcefully recall it!!!
This sword blade …
But it had been crippled for a very, very long time.
"You really don't know?"
The old man asked coldly.
"I really don't know."
Xiao-Xiaojian said sincerely.
"Then you're useless."
The old man's face was gloomy.
In order to awaken the divine sword, he had sacrificed too much!
Ten years!
Drip blood every day!
Do you know how hard it is?
After all, he was a man … He was born with a disadvantage. He didn't have the black technology to bleed half a kilogram per month, so he could only constantly bleed to replenish his blood.
Then, they came up with such trash?
Hence …
He angrily put the Sky Water Sword on the grill.
Boom!
The flames burned.
A sizzling sound came from the Sky Water Sword.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch …"
Xiao-Xiaojian had tears in its eyes.
Why do all of you like this so much?!
He really didn't know!
To hell with it!
This was something that happened in ancient times … Damn it. How many years had it been? How could it possibly remember?! If it had such a good memory, it wouldn't have scored only seven points in the exam!
However …
Speaking of talent … Wait a minute!
"I know who has it!"
Xiao-Xiaojian said loudly.
"Speak."
The old man was expressionless.
"Lu Ming."
Xiao-Xiaojian decisively betrayed him.
"Courting death!"
The old man was furious. He sprinkled some cumin on the sword.
Scoundrel!
The moment it was activated, it said that it was Lu Ming's card spirit. It was very mysterious and asked him to contact Lu Ming. That was why he went to Lu Ming's place to sound it out!
In the end …
Of course, it was fake.
In fact, it made sense when he thought about it.
The Sky Water Sword had been in his hands all these years. How could it have anything to do with Lu Ming? When he obtained the Sky Water Sword years ago, Lu Ming was running around with his d * ck in his pants!
The so-called sword spirit was indeed full of nonsense!
Snort!
It's okay!
I will make you tell the truth!
Cheez —
Cheez —
He burned the sword until it turned red. The Sky Water Sword was of the water attribute and it was most afraid of high temperatures. He wanted to see how long the sword spirit could last!
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch.
"It's true!"
Xiao-Xiaojian said, "Have you ever wondered why Lu Ming improved so quickly?"
"Oh?"
The old man squinted his eyes.
"I'm Excalibur!
"I know how to deduce!"
Xiao-Xiaojian was certain. "Although I've never met Lu Ming, I have another characteristic of Excalibur – deduction! Therefore, I know that the truth must lie with Lu Ming! "
"Really?"
The old man sneered.
"Really!"
Xiao-Xiaojian looked solemn. "Let me deduce … Uh … Lu Ming … cultivates … Oh, it seems to be called the Art of Equalization …"
Bang!
The old man's expression changed drastically. The Art of Equalization?!
As a person who had read all the ancient books in order to improve his talents, the Art of Equalization …
He was too familiar with it!
He had already read about it in countless ancient books. In addition to the secret skill that he used to improve his talents, there was also the Art of Equalization!
Of course.
It had long been lost. Therefore, he had long given up on it.
Unexpectedly …
Lu Ming had a copy with him!
"Very good, very good!"
The old man was excited.
He knew that …
If he could obtain the Art of Equalization, perhaps he could break through and become a seven-star! The Art of Equalization was also his last chance!
"Lu Ming …"
The old man flipped through the earliest information on Lu Ming.
True enough.
Before Fruit Ninja became popular, Lu Ming was once mentioned as a burden to his sister …
A good-for-nothing.
Of course.
Later on, with the rise of Lu Ming, people gradually treated these rumors and jokes as people were jealous of Lu Ming. No one knew that these were actually true!
The old man looked at Lu Ming's experience and his eyes turned red.
Talent!
This was talent!
Lu Ming was a good-for-nothing Card Creator but he relied on the Art of Equalization to get to where he was today! If he could obtain this secret skill and combine it with himself …
Seven-star?
Eight-star?
It might be even higher!
"You won't be able to obtain it through normal means."
Xiao-Xiaojian reminded him. "Do you know why the Art of Equalization was lost? This is because it is passed down in the Sea of Consciousness. The legacy takes form and the legacy is destroyed when the person dies! "
"Legacy takes form?"
The old man frowned.
"It's in Lu Ming's Sea of Consciousness."
Xiao-Xiaojian pinched its fingers and calculated for a moment, pondering deeply. "The Art of Equalization transforms into a black living creature. I can't see it clearly. It might be an irascible eunuch cat with a bad temper after being castrated …
"Anyway, if you really want the Art of Equalization, it's useless even if you kill Lu Ming. You can only obtain it by entering the Sea of Consciousness!"
Xiao-Xiaojian instructed.
"I see!"
The old man understood now.
According to rumors …
The top-notch Swordsman legacy could evolve into a living creature. This was also the case for the Moon Shadow legacy. He did not expect that the Art of Equalization could reach this stage as well!
It was no wonder that he had been searching for more than ten years to no avail!
The Sea of Consciousness …
"I understand now."
The old man nodded slightly.
Lu Ming's identity was extraordinary. If he wanted to control him, he might have to give it further thought … He would not come out of Tian Du City. If he were to barge in forcefully, he might be caught by the police!
Well …
The old man checked the information related to Lu Ming on the Internet.
Oo …
He heard that this person was not only good-looking but also kind-hearted …
He had an idea!
It was too easy to deceive such so-called kind-hearted people. He could simply fabricate a tragic story to bluff him out and then take action.
Shush!
He got up and left.
The Sky Water Sword followed him.
The man and the sword disappeared into the sky.
However …
They were unaware of something.
Just as they had made up their minds to kill Lu Ming, somewhere, a man and a cat were looking at the subtitles that flashed across the Sea of Consciousness expressionlessly.
Well …
Thanks to the strong consensus between Brother Mao and Xiao-Xiaojian, every thought and every sentence in Xiao-Xiaojian's heart was faithfully played through the subtitles.
It was a good thing that Xiao-Xiaojian did not run away!
It was also a good thing that Xiao-Xiaojian wanted to come back!
But …
Lu Ming felt that it was better for it not to come back.
Seriously …
"Meow!"
The Black Cat was enraged.
Its fur tensed up and its four claws extended. Beams of cold lights flashed and a suffocating chill reverberated in the Sea of Consciousness. Its murderous intent was awe-inspiring!
"Calm down!
"Brother Mao, calm down!"
Lu Ming hurriedly stopped the Black Cat, wiping his cold sweat.
What a joke.
Wouldn't it be terrible if Brother Mao were to fight his way out?
Although Lu Ming did not know much about the Black Cat's ability, based on the fact that it could casually bring the bell from the real world in and traverse the World of Darkness and Shadows …
Well …
It could really fight its way out!
"Calm down!
"Brother Mao!
"They will come on their own."
Lu Ming reminded, "When the time comes, we will annihilate them in one go!"
"…"
The Black Cat's murderous intent was surging.
It only calmed down after hearing Lu Ming's advice.
"…"
Lu Ming broke out in cold sweat for Xiao-Xiaojian.
Brother, good luck … Who asked you to be so talkative?!
However …
Come to think of it, dealing with a peak Six Stars …
Although Xiao-Xiaojian mentioned the Sea of Consciousness, Lu Ming reckoned that given the other party's vigilance and impatience toward Xiao-Xiaojian, it might not listen to it!
This was going to be a tough battle!
Besides …
This time, it involved the Art of Equalization, Sky Water Sword, Xiao-Xiaojian, and a mysterious talent enhancement skill!!!
He could only take action in this battle!
Peak Six Stars?
I will wait for you!
