Somewhere.
Cold winds were blowing.
The sky was dark.
Night fell and the lights faded. There were only stars in the sky. Fortunately, the light did not affect the Swordsman.
At this moment …
The two Swordsman were still looking into the distance.
"An Mingdong … is he reliable?"
One of the Swordsman murmured.
"I don't know."
His companion said faintly, "Humans are a very strange species, aren't they? No matter how loyal they are usually, they will change their minds in the face of benefits.
"Furthermore …
"This time, it's an ancient Sword Embryo.
"If An Mingdong betrays us and takes away the Sword Embryo, it won't be strange."
He was very calm.
"What should we do then?"
The Swordsman was worried.
"Don't worry."
His companion smiled faintly. "Since I've considered this, I've made preparations. Someone will supervise An Mingdong until he completes his mission.
"If he betrays us …"
"Heh."
He chuckled.
"In that case …"
The Swordsman pondered for a moment. "How can you guarantee that the people you send won't betray us?"
It was very difficult to be loyal.
Especially when faced with the temptation of changing one's destiny.
Since An Mingdong might betray us, why can't the people you send do the same? He might even be more dangerous than An Mingdong!
After all, he stole what he was guarding …
"Because I'm his father."
His companion's gaze was deep. Immediately after, he paused for a moment. "At least, that's what he calls me at night."
The Swordsman was speechless.
…
At this very moment …
In the Land of the Fallen.
An Mingdong could no longer stand.
It was true.
He felt weak all over and his legs were wobbly. He felt as if he had been looking at goldfish for seven consecutive days. Even Lu Ming appeared in front of him.
"I …
"He actually lost?"
An Mingdong was in a daze.
"Goodbye."
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
He did not want to talk nonsense with An Mingdong.
Swoosh!
Cold lights flashed.
He slashed the Moon Shadow Sword again.
In the darkness of the night, the layers of moonlight that appeared seemed to be even more powerful.
However …
At this moment, just as Lu Ming thought that he could kill An Mingdong in a second, a dim light appeared and shielded An Mingdong silently.
Dang!
There was a crisp sound.
The Moon Shadow Sword was blocked!
There.
A man in black appeared in front of An Mingdong.
The black on his body seemed a little different. It was the same as the clothes of the men in black, but it blended in with the night. It was very strange.
"You shouldn't have let me do it."
The man in black glared at An Mingdong coldly. "You're useless. You can't even do such a thing properly! Godfather has lost all his face because of you! "
He was supposed to supervise An Mingdong.
Unexpectedly.
This trash didn't betray them, but he couldn't complete the mission! Too stupid! Sometimes, incompetence was more terrifying than betrayal!
Looks like …
In the end, he still had to make a move.
"It's you!"
An Mingdong's heart trembled.
He didn't expect that among the group of black robed men who didn't speak, this person was actually here!
"Foster father?"
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment.
Then, he came back to his senses. F * ck, isn't it just godfather?
Oo …
True enough.
Had the mastermind behind all of this come out?
Perhaps …
It was the person who sent them in.
Hence …
He quietly crushed a few cards.
"You can't beat me."
The man in black glanced at Lu Ming. "You're quite talented. Are you interested in serving us? At the very least, it's much better than your association that doesn't even have a seven-star. "
"Interesting?"
Lu Ming rolled his eyes. "Are you referring to 'calling someone father'? I really don't understand why someone would have such a hobby. But if you're interested … "
"Actually, I don't mind."
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
"…"
The man in black turned sullen.
He suddenly had an urge to kill someone.
However …
After all, he was not a good-for-nothing like An Mingdong.
He took a deep breath and calmed down. "You're young and frivolous. I won't be angry. Child, I'm afraid you don't know your value …
"You're so young and you already have such abilities. Wouldn't it be a pity if you died?
"Of course.
"I know you're confident.
"It's a pity —
"I'm very sorry."
He shook his head. "I'm not a good-for-nothing like An Mingdong. Even Meng Shisan is no match for me. I'm a second realm Six Stars Swordsman!"
"Second … realm?"
Lu Ming was a little doubtful.
Wait a minute.
Damn. What kind of quantifier was that?
"Oh."
The man in black came to his senses. "I forgot that you don't know these things …"
"No wonder."
The man in black chuckled. "Child, there's no limit after Six Stars. You should know that some people might keep getting stronger but they have no chance of becoming a grandmaster.
"How do you think their abilities are standardized?
"Don't tell me that everyone is called peak Six Stars?
"Of course not.
"This is to standardize the abilities after peak Six Stars.
"The various associations have redefined the realm of peak Six Stars with Six Stars as the standard.
"The process of tempering from beginner Six Stars to peak Six Stars is a standard. After reaching the peak of six-star, each tempering process represents the advancement of a realm and the enhancement of one's strength. Therefore, there is a brand new standard quantifier — 'realm'. "
"To put it simply …
"If peak Six Stars is a bucket of overflowing water …
"Then, the description of the realm can be roughly explained as one bucket of water, two buckets of water, three buckets of water … Before breaking through to seven-star, no matter how many buckets there are, it's still water!
"And seven-star …
"It's ice.
"If you turn into ice, you'll be a seven-star. If you don't, you'll always be a Six Stars!"
The man in black was as warm as the wind.
"Oh."
Lu Ming understood now.
It was similar to the concept of one East and one Leviathan. It was roughly the same for one realm. According to this standard, Six Stars could be standardized no matter how strong they were!
"An Mingdong is only 1.5 realms now.
"Meng Shisan is only 1.4 realms now.
"As for me …
"I'm already level two!"
The man in black was proud.
This was what he was proud of.
At his age and with his talent, he was able to reach level two. This was what he was most proud of! At the same stage, how many people could surpass him?!
Perhaps …
This was also the reason why he was chosen by his foster father back then …
"Oh."
Lu Ming understood now. "What about my sister?"
Shush!
The proud expression on the man in black's face froze.
He suddenly felt a faint pain in his stomach where he had been stabbed … Damn it. Why did he mention that woman at this time?!
Hence …
The man in black pretended not to hear him.
"Child.
"Are you interested in following me?"
The man in black said gently.
"…"
Lu Ming finally understood. He was really trying to recruit him!
"Why should I follow you?
"Call me Daddy together?"
Lu Ming was amused.
"Of course not."
The man in black shook his head. "Child, if you follow me, I'm afraid you can't call me that."
???
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Suddenly …
He somewhat understood. Looking at the gentle and benevolent face in front of him and thinking of the child that he had been calling, he suddenly understood …
This guy actually wanted to accept him as his godson!!!
Yes.
That was right!
Back then, someone took a fancy to this guy and he acknowledged him as his godson. Now, he took a fancy to him …
MMP!
What was his foster father's name then?
It was taught in the textbooks that Daddy's father was called Grandpa …
At the thought of this …
Lu Ming's face darkened.
"Get lost!"
He took a deep breath.
You want me to call you Daddy? Impossible! Do you think you're Jiang Feng?!
"Heh."
The man in black merely chuckled.
It was okay.
He was a child. He was full of arrogance.
Lu Ming was only sixteen or seventeen years old. In his eyes, he was really a child. Since he did not understand, he would show him his combat ability.
He would show him what it meant to be a 'second realm of Six Stars'!
Bang!
He took a step forward.
Suddenly, a terrifying will descended.
It could destroy heaven and earth.
Pfft!
The few Swordsmen who were already riddled with injuries vomited blood on the spot. Under the suppression of such a level of thought, they could not even last for a second!
This …
This was a second realm of Six Stars!
He had advanced to another realm on the basis of peak Six Stars!
"Damn it …
"This guy …"
Meng Shisan gritted his teeth. He had no strength to resist.
The difference in their abilities was obvious at this moment.
You know how to skip levels?
I'm sorry.
I know how to do that too. In fact, I know more than you!
"Child.
"Are you willing to surrender?"
The man in black looked at Lu Ming. "If you are willing to be my godson, I will impart everything to you so that you will have the opportunity to reach seven-star in the future!"
"Get lost!"
Lu Ming replied with one word.
"Well …"
An Mingdong suddenly interrupted. "If I can reach seven-star, I don't mind calling you Daddy …"
"Get lost!"
The man in black turned sullen.
Damn it! Who the hell wants you to call me Daddy!
At your age, it's more appropriate for me to call you Daddy!
Whoosh —
He took a deep breath and looked at Lu Ming again.
"It's okay."
He smiled gently. "If you are unwilling, I will bring you back first. I will make you agree to it. Sooner or later, you will willingly surrender to me."
Interesting.
It would be a good experience to bring this child back and slowly make him his master, right?
After all …
It was the same for him in the past.
Hence …
He made his move.
"Be careful!"
Meng Shisan and the group, who had just finished their battle, stood in front of Lu Ming.
However …
Bang!
Sword gleams surged.
The Swordsman were blasted away on the spot.
"…"
Lu Ming squinted his eyes. Was this the power of a second realm Six Stars enemy?
He was indeed powerful.
However …
Come to think of it …
Earlier on, he quietly threw a few Burial Mound Cards and Desolation Cards and let Xiao-Xiaojian dissipate them in the card bag. He used them in a low-key manner!
However …
Nothing happened!
Until now, there was no movement at all!
That was to say —
In this small world, there was no dead senior Ox-head.
"It's a pity."
Lu Ming sighed.
If a dead seven-star Ox-head appeared, this matter would be easily resolved. But now … he could only rely on himself.
Hence …
Lu Ming flipped his hands and crushed seven Sunlight Cards.
Buzz —
Lights flashed.
Seven Sunlight Cards condensed in the Original Card.
In the end …
It transformed.
It became a top-notch Six Stars card in the truest sense. It was also the most powerful card that Lu Ming had integrated so far!!!
This was the Summon Series Card!
Four Stars, summon moonlight, inject energy, strengthen oneself!
Five-star, summon sunlight, eliminate shadows, and detonate in a wide area!
Well …
What about Six Stars?
Compared to the Ribbon Series and Ox-head Series Cards, Lu Ming was more confident in the Summon Series Card which was more formal.
Well …
"I'll leave it to you."
Lu Ming took a deep breath.
Shush!
Lights flashed.
He threw out the most powerful card in history.
Buzz —
The card dissipated.
There was a flash of brilliance. The unique aura of a top-notch Six Stars dissipated. Even the man in black was on his guard. The aura of the card …
Suddenly …
In the sky.
The stars were shining brightly.
Eh?
Everyone looked up at this moment.
In the sky, the moonlight was as charming as ever, shining on this side of the world. However, at this moment, the sky was filled with shining stars and the moonlight dimmed.
Buzz —
Buzz —
One by one, the stars shone.
The starlight gathered.
The light of Sirius streaked across the sky, shining like a meteor. It formed a perfect arc and condensed.
Bang!
The starlight suddenly landed!
"This is …"
Everyone widened their eyes. What a powerful aura! Lu Ming actually had a card of this level!
Every ray of starlight was very weak!
It was only five-star.
However …
When the light of Sirius condensed, it released a terrifying aura. It even surpassed the man in black who was a second realm Six Stars!
This aura …
"It is very powerful!"
The man in black squinted his eyes.
Lu Ming …
Is this your trump card?
True enough, I have belittled you … However, you are not the only one with a trump card! As a second realm Six Stars cultivator, how could he not have a trump card?!
Shush!
Cold lights flashed.
He lifted his hand and the Sword Embryo was suspended in the air.
Buzz —
The sword gleam shone.
The man in black's aura suddenly surged. This was the internal breathing technique that his foster father imparted to him. It could be combined with the Sword Embryo to greatly increase one's combat ability!
Buzz —
His ability increased crazily.
2.1 realm!
2.3 realm!
2.5 realm!
…
In the end …
It actually stabilized at 2.8 realm!
It far exceeded An Mingdong and Meng Shisan's combat ability!
The Swordsman were terrified. It was only at this moment that they realized that the man in black was that powerful!
"Come on!"
The man in black pointed his sword to the sky, feeling proud.
2.8 realm!
This was his new limit!
Although he could not persist for too long, it should be enough to deal with the so-called starlight!
This was what he thought.
"Xiao-Xiaojian!
"Yes.
"Can you predict the strength of the card?
"Yes! I have already analyzed it. According to the move that landed, the condensed starlight should have a strength of 2.2 realm. If it was in the past, it would not be a problem. But now that the man in black has been strengthened … I might not be able to defeat him. "
Xiao-Xiaojian said in a low voice.
"I might not be able to defeat him …"
Lu Ming sighed.
A second realm was already very powerful.
This had already surpassed the concept of peak Six Stars!
However …
Lu Ming looked at the starlight in the sky and suddenly understood the judging mechanism of this card — it was actually based on the number of stars in the sky!!!
Yes.
The more stars there were, the more dazzling the starlight was!
Perhaps, this was the real activation mechanism of this card?
However …
The stars tonight were of an ordinary standard … If they were in a place where there were many stars, they might be able to kill the man in black in one go?
But now …
It was a pity.
Lu Ming sighed. "Xiao-Xiaojian, get ready to escape."
"Understood."
Xiao-Xiaojian said in a low voice.
Only the two of them could understand the power of this card!
Everyone was looking forward to it. Only the two of them had finished calculating. Given their current standards, it was impossible to defeat the man in black who had been strengthened!
Therefore …
At the moment of the duel, it was the right thing to do to escape.
Hence …
The man and the card secretly made preparations.
Bang!
Starlight surged.
At this moment …
Everyone looked up at the starry sky.
They knew that Lu Ming's super powerful trump card, the surging starlight and the man in black's sword would be the final showdown that would decide the victor!
Even An Mingdong tried his best not to faint as he watched.
Swoosh!
At this moment …
The shuttling starlight finally landed.
"Break!"
The man in black used his most powerful killer move.
He had terrifying abilities of 2.8 realm Six Stars. With the activation of his powerful swordplay, he had already unleashed his most powerful combat ability in history!
However …
Just at the moment when the swordplay came into contact with the starlight …
Buzz —
The starlight trembled.
It did not fight with him. Instead, it quietly integrated into his body, turning into a gentle light and nourishing his body like a clear spring.
???
The man in black was dumbstruck.
Clear spring?
Nourishing …
Wait a minute.
He suddenly looked into his body and was shocked to discover that the starlight rapidly replenished his depleted energy and healed his injuries. It then continued to replenish his body …
His limbs suddenly swelled up.
3.0 realm!
Continued to replenish …
His fifth limb swelled up.
3.2 realm!
Continued to replenish …
His torso also swelled up.
3.5 realm!
???
The expression of the man in black changed drastically. The starlight was actually strengthened!!! His body that had been strengthened to its limit was forcefully filled up again …
Pfft!
He spat out a mouthful of blood. It was filled with surging energy.
???
Lu Ming and Xiao-Xiaojian, who were preparing to escape, were stunned. Wait a minute. This effect … seemed to be completely different from what they had imagined?! Inexplicably …
Lu Ming thought of his previous opponent!
Could it be that …
Lu Ming's eyes lit up.
Right then.
An Mingdong also looked on enviously.
Eh?
It could still be improved?
He was indeed the godson of that person …
Look, even his blood was filled with energy.
In this day and age, one would die from drought or flood … However, he soon realized that something was amiss. This was because the man in black was still improving!!
Buzz —
The facial features of the man in black began to swell. He was like a tank that had been turned on.
He became more and more swollen …
Bigger and bigger …
3.6 realm!
3.8 realm!
4.0 realm!
In the end …
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
The man in black transformed into Sirius light and suddenly exploded. Endless starlight swept across the surroundings. Surging energy filled the sky, illuminating the dark night.
It brought about a kind of enchanting beauty.
The man in black was dead.
Shush!
There was pin-drop silence in the surroundings.
Meng Shisan was speechless.
The Swordsmen were speechless.
The surviving black-clothed men were terrified.
They looked at Lu Ming in the distance, trembling all over … Their boss had the combat ability of 2.8 realm but he could not withstand one card from Lu Ming?!
What kind of combat ability was this?!
…
Lu Ming was speechless.
To be honest …
He was surprised by this outcome.
Initially, he thought that it was a condensed beam attack from the stars. Who knew that the essence of this card was the same as the Moonlight Card. It could actually be upgraded!!!
Therefore …
The man in black died from overeating!!!
He died …
He had enhanced himself to the limit and was forcibly enhanced.
This …
What else could he say?
However …
Come to think of it, he thought of the strengthening of the Moonlight Card and the strengthening of the Stars Card. He thought of the Sunlight Card that he used as an AOE!
Lu Ming thought of a very important matter.
According to the method of the sun, moon and stars, if the Moonlight Card and the Stars Card could be strengthened, could the Sunlight Card be used for strengthening as well?!
It was just that …
He used the wrong method?
Lu Ming thought about it. It was actually possible! He was really curious. If he stuffed the Sunlight Card into his body …
What would the effect be?
Instinctively …
He looked at An Mingdong who was already waiting for death. Should he … give it a try?
???
An Mingdong clamped his skinny legs together. What was Lu Ming trying to do with his gaze?
