Tian Du City.
Sword Card Master Association.
Since Lu Ming 'attained' nine-star, his life had returned to normal.
He had his children by his side during the day and Xiao Bai at night. Occasionally, Miss Tian would come over to let him experience the excitement of life …
Tsk.
His life was considered blissful.
However …
Lu Ming was well aware that all of this was based on the fact that he had 'attained nine-star'. In particular, he had personally destroyed a nine-star.
Therefore, he had to constantly improve himself and strive to attain nine-star.
The problem was …
How could he break through?
He was only One Star now …
Cultivate?
Lu Ming tried to cultivate. Original Card + shadow + body. Three levels of cultivation indeed improved the quality of his energy. However, he was still One Star.
That feeling …
It was exactly the same as the limit of Six Stars in the past.
Therefore, the current Lu Ming merely changed from the limit of Six Stars to the limit of One Star. There were no other changes.
If he wanted to break through to Two Stars …
It might be the same as breaking through to seven-star previously!
Of course.
It did not matter if his realm could not keep up with that of a nine-star. Anyway, he had already become a One Star. It was possible if his combat ability reached nine-star.
Hence …
Late at night.
Lu Ming and Miss Hin released another review.
"Let's start with the energy test."
Miss Hin said.
She could sense that Lu Ming's energy was different.
"Okay."
Lu Ming tried to use his energy to attack Hin.
Bang!
A powerful aura erupted.
Golden lights flowed.
Although Lu Ming tried his best not to use any special powers, when he used his full strength, there was still a trace of golden radiance in his Sea of Consciousness.
It was this trace that alerted Rhy.
"This thing …"
Hin's expression was grave.
She could sense the difference in the energy. This should be the special energy that Lu Ming obtained through other means. If she could understand the core …
"Can you only control the golden lights?"
She looked at Lu Ming.
"A little."
Lu Ming felt somewhat embarrassed.
"Use it to attack me!"
Hin's voice was low.
"I don't think that's appropriate …"
Lu Ming smiled bitterly.
"Attack!"
Rhine was very sure.
Since they were going to assess Lu Ming's battle prowess, they naturally couldn't let this go.
"Alright."
Lu Ming sighed.
Hence …
He conjured a balloon wrapped in Yin energy and threw it at Rhine.
Pa!
There was a crisp sound.
The golden light splashed onto Rhy's face.
"This aura …"
Hin licked her lips and savored it. "This taste is a little familiar …"
Lu Ming:???
Who identifies energy like that?!
Even if it's pure energy, you can't just eat it and appraise it!
"Oh …"
"This energy is mellow and simple."
Caine savored it carefully. "Although it is a golden radiance, it has a unique texture. It is a kind of energy body, but it can soften the two characteristics of viscosity and lubrication …"
"As expected of Nine Star Energy."
Rhine exclaimed in surprise.
"…"
Lu Ming was silent.
So, Lady Rhine's part-time job was to provide energy on the tip of the tongue?
He did not know why, but after hearing about Lady Rhine's appraisal plan, he suddenly had a bold idea …
Thankfully …
Very soon, he thought of Xiao Bai and instantly felt at ease.
"Have you eaten the energy for appraisal?"
Lu Ming asked softly.
"Yes."
Rhine nodded slightly. "In this way, I can sense the energy structure more deeply. Why?"
"What about my own?"
Lu Ming was very curious about his energy.
"Yours?"
Rhine glanced at him. "Although the texture of your energy is not bad and it already has a seven-star quality, the density is too thin and the activity is too low."
Lu Ming was speechless.
Miss Rhine was very particular about her choice of words.
Anyway …
After Rhine's appraisal, Lu Ming's energy quality was still seven-star. However, it had been upgraded from beginner seven-star to intermediate seven-star.
Oh …
This was under the circumstance that he did not use that special energy.
"I don't know how to use it."
Lu Ming sighed.
This energy originated from Heaven and Earth. It could not be absorbed or integrated. Right now, he could only use it purely for defense and to fend off the enemy's attacks.
"It's fine as long as there is a corresponding mental cultivation method."
Rhine said in a low voice, "It's true that Sword Card Masters are unable to use this kind of energy at the moment. However, I feel that this energy is very familiar …"
Lu Ming pretended not to hear it.
He could not possibly say that this energy belonged to a Cleric?!
"It's okay.
"Sooner or later, I will be able to figure it out."
Rhine was very calm. "Come, the energy appraisal is complete. It's time for actual combat. Let me see how much you, the president, have improved?!"
Upon finishing her words …
She attacked immediately.
Shush!
The Original Card transformed in her hands and turned into a boxing glove.
Bang!
She threw a punch.
It was as powerful as a thunderbolt.
In terms of combat experience, Lu Ming was far from Rhine's. Therefore, when Rhine suddenly attacked, Lu Ming was struck before he could react.
Afterward …
Buzz —
Lights flashed on Lu Ming's body.
Rhine was shocked to discover that her attack was deflected!
"This is …"
Rhine stared in horror at the dazzling glow on Lu Ming's body. That familiar look, those fine lines. She could not believe it. "You … You are actually wearing mesh stockings?!"
Shush!
The world suddenly turned silent.
Lu Ming's face darkened. He looked at the nine-star light net that was blasted out by Rhine's attack …
Oh.
This thing had such a defensive effect.
This was amazing!
He did not even sense Rhine's attack. Obviously, when the attack landed on the light net, it was interpreted as an attack on the light net and was directly neutralized.
This nine-star light net …
Its defensive ability was shocking and terrifying!
Of course, to Lu Ming, it was somewhat shameful. Especially when it defended, it was like a shiny silk stocking …
This was too much of a scam!
"This is a light net."
Lu Ming explained in a serious manner.
"Oh …"
Rhine had a sudden realization. "Using a light net to make silk stockings is also very creative …"
"This is not silk stockings …"
Lu Ming turned sullen. "This thing is used to attack my light net …"
"That's right."
Rhine blinked her eyes. "You used such a threatening thing as mesh silk stockings, a piece of equipment with a super high defense level. This shows that you are very smart."
"…"
Lu Ming no longer had the energy to explain.
Forget it.
So be it silk stockings.
"I will test the defensive ability of this thing."
Rhine was very excited.
"Okay."
Lu Ming sighed.
Since things had come to this, he could only make good use of this thing.
Hence …
Rhine began to test the defense of the light net. It was just that her testing method …
Bam!
Miss Rhine first used hammers, axes, swords and other weapons to attack. She then changed to fists and in the end, she simply used a small leather whip to lash continuously …
Lu Ming was speechless.
Wait a minute. Why did it become such an indescribable activity again?
Thankfully …
Very soon, Rhine completed the test.
The final result was that hammers, axes and other hard weapons would be blocked by a certain thickness of the light net. They could not hurt Lu Ming at all!
But the small leather whip …
It could work.
As the leather whip was soft, it could pass through the gaps in the mesh.
"Is there any problem?"
Lu Ming asked.
"It's okay."
Rhine was very satisfied. "With this silk stocking, ordinary cultivators will not be able to hurt you at all! Cultivators below nine-star will not be able to penetrate your body with weapons. "
Lu Ming was speechless.
After a long while …
He sighed. "Can't a grandmaster who uses a leather whip do it?"
"Indeed."
Rhine said in a low voice, "However, there are very few cultivators who use a leather whip. There is only one person who has become a grandmaster. Therefore, you don't have to worry."
"Oh."
Lu Ming understood now.
He was invincible among those below nine-star!!!
"However …"
Rhine paused for a moment and cast a meaningful glance at him. "I heard that you are under a lot of pressure recently. If you need, I can help you to contact her …"
Lu Ming was speechless.
This was crazy!
Who?? He wanted to contact that kind of person!
"Don't look at me like that."
Rhine rolled her eyes. "Although the number of people in the association is small, they are also serious cultivators."
"Whip cultivator?"
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
"No."
Rhine said seriously, "The whip cultivator is another association. They are called the skin cultivator."
"Pixiu …"
Lu Ming was silent. It was a good name!
"Alright, don't bother about them."
Rhine rolled her eyes. "Continue with the testing. It was very dangerous to encounter a nine-star Card Creator this time. What about the next time we encounter other nine-stars?"
"President!
"You have to understand your strengths!
"When faced with a strong enemy, you have to use your strengths and target the enemy's weaknesses in order to have a chance of winning!
"Now …
"Again!"
Bang!
Bang!
Rhine attacked again. Lu Ming had no choice but to fight.
That night …
The two of them fought for a very long time.
Ever since she returned to being a grandmaster, Miss Rhine's combat ability could only be described as terrifying. Without using special energy, Lu Ming could barely fight her.
Thankfully …
After a night of fighting, Rhine had helped Lu Ming to understand his new combat ability.
Well …
Appearance Energy Realm: Peak One Star.
Energy Quality: Intermediate Seven-star.
Combat ability of self + card support + stockings grid: Invincible seven-star!!! That was right. Together with Lu Ming's various special cards, basically no seven-star could defeat Lu Ming.
As for eight-star …
He could only rely on stockings grid and light energy for defense. Generally speaking, the other party could not hurt Lu Ming. However, Lu Ming did not have any means to attack the other party.
If there was a need to evaluate it …
"Invincible?"
Lu Ming was proud of himself.
"…"
Rhine glanced at him. "No, it is more resistant to beatings."
Lu Ming: → _ →
As for nine-star?
Forget it.
He really could not defeat them.
Even if he used all his stockings grid and light energy, he reckoned that he could not withstand more than a few attacks. Even nine-star Card Creators who did not know how to fight could see through Lu Ming's tricks.
Therefore …
If he encountered other nine-stars, he could only rely on bluffing.
…
Thankfully …
In this world, there were only a few nine-stars.
Although Lu Ming did not know most of them, he did not have a bad relationship with them. For example, he had a good relationship with the big shot from the Sorcerer Association.
Well …
Disregarding the possibility that Lu Ming would demolish their legacy site …
However …
At this moment.
"Lu Ming, have you heard of the F7 Alliance?"
Rhine suddenly asked.
"Yes."
Lu Ming nodded slightly.
He was very interested in this alliance that was giving him benefits.
"That's right."
Rhine said in a low voice, "In addition to the big circles of various associations and forces, in fact, many people have their own small circles.
"For example, the F7 Alliance.
"For example, the small leather whip and candle hobby circle.
"For example, the Card Cracking Circle."
Rhine said.
Lu Ming was speechless.
He had a hunch that there was something amiss about it …
However …
Circles were indeed normal.
In this day and age, there were circles for everything. Fan circles, subtitles circles, xx circles, 91 circles and so on …
He expressed his understanding.
"Anyway."
Rhine said, "Now that you have the ability of a nine-star, perhaps one day, they will invite you to join their own circle — Nine Stars Alliance!
"According to rumors, the Nine Stars Alliance is at the peak of the universe.
"It is a legendary place that no one else can reach. Over there, the nine-star big shots look down on all living beings and decide the direction of the human world!
"According to rumors, every time they meet, there will be many strange phenomena in the universe. The sun, moon and stars will lose their luster. These are the traces that the Prophets found.
"It's there.
"The association is just one of the attributes …
"Although they may be the presidents of various associations, in their eyes, they care more about all living beings. They will only make a move occasionally.
"For example, the Card Creator …
"In fact, this is against the rules."
Rhine's expression was solemn.
"I see."
Lu Ming exclaimed in shock.
He did not expect that the Nine Stars Alliance would have such a presence.
"Then if I kill the nine-star Card Creator, will it …"
Lu Ming said in a low voice.
"It should not be a big deal."
Rhine thought about it. "First of all, he broke the rules and looked for you. Secondly, the forces behind the few nine-star big shots are very complicated. They are in a competitive relationship. Only when it involves the life and death of mankind and the direction of the world will they make a decision to resolve the crisis of the world!
"According to rumors …
"The World Disaster Management Team was created by them.
"Besides …
"When the president of the Card Creators Association died, he and the forces that he represented were no longer qualified to participate in the decisions of the Nine Stars Alliance. Therefore …"
Rhine smiled faintly.
"Oh …"
Lu Ming understood a little. He said in a low voice, "How do you know all these?"
"My uncle told me."
Rhine lowered her voice again. "These are all rumors. Some powerful beings or some eight-star big shots mentioned it before they died …
"The Nine Stars Alliance has always existed.
"However …
"Due to the difficulty of breaking through to nine-star and the limited lifespan of humans, the number of members of the Nine Stars Alliance has not changed much.
"Anyway …
"It is a good thing for you to step into the Nine Stars Alliance."
Rhine said.
"Yes."
Lu Ming heaved a sigh of relief.
In that case …
Of course, it was good.
The Nine Stars Alliance? The existence at the top of the universe?
If …
If he was really qualified to participate in it …
Lu Ming felt his blood racing at the thought of it. He did not expect that he would be qualified to change the world within a few years!!! (Demolition does not count.)
However …
Lu Ming did not expect that …
At this moment.
Buzz —
His wristband communication device vibrated.
Eh?
Lu Ming took a look and was instantly puzzled — The president of the Sorcerer Association invited you to join the 'I'm Still Young I Can Come Again Group'.
What was this?
Lu Ming was speechless.
Did the Sorcerers discover any new legacy site?
Shush!
He instinctively clicked to join.
Ding dong —
A familiar chat box appeared.
Well …
Lu Ming glanced at the list of names in the group and was instantly dumbstruck. The president of the Sorcerer Association, the president of the Swordsman Association, the president of the Elementalist Association, the president of the Energy Warrior Association …
Wait a minute.
There were a total of nine people.
Each of them was a nine-star.
Oh.
Of course.
There was also an old acquaintance — the president of the Sharpshooter Association.
"Young friend Lu Ming.
"Welcome to the Nine Star Alliance."
The president of the Sorcerer Association sent a rose emoji. "Welcome, welcome. From today onwards, you are a new member of the Nine Star Alliance!"
Lu Ming was speechless.
Wait a minute.
This was the rumored Nine Star Alliance?
Damn it!
What happened to the Summit of the Starry Sky?
Right then.
There were notifications in the group.
The president of the Elementalist Association: "Congratulations."
The president of the Swordsman Association: "Congratulations."
The president of the Energy Warrior Association: "Young friend, aren't you going to send me a red packet?"
…
Lu Ming was speechless.
"Hello, senior."
Lu Ming was in a trance.
"Yes, yes."
"Let's not talk about this first."
The president of the Summoner Association stopped the topic. "This time, firstly, we welcome young friend Lu Ming. Secondly, we have a discussion about the progress of the world."
"You mean …"
"That's right. They are here. We need to deal with them."
"Who's going?!"
"I'll do it. It shouldn't be a problem."
"Bring Lu Ming along. It's good for him to broaden his horizons. He's too young. He needs to understand these things quickly …"
"Okay."
The big shots finished their discussion very quickly.
？？？
The entire Lu Ming city was dumbstruck.
Wait a minute.
He rubbed his head.
"Well …"
Lu Ming asked weakly, "This is the world's agenda?"
"Yes."
The big shots took it for granted.
"No."
Lu Ming asked cautiously, "I heard that every time the Nine Star Alliance discusses the progress of the world, there will be strange phenomena in the sky …"
"Oh."
"You mean that …"
The big shot Summoner was embarrassed. "Sigh, in the past, technology was not developed and everyone lived too far away. They could only roar in the sky to communicate. That's why there are all sorts of sequelae."
？？？
Lu Ming was in a trance. "T-roar in the sky?"
"Yes."
The big shot Summoner heaved continuous sighs. "It's very tiring to communicate. As everyone's distance is different, the volume of the sound they hear is different. Back then, there was a younger nine-star female big shot who scolded me every day because of this … "
？？？
Lu Ming instinctively asked, "Why?"
"Because she was too close to me …"
The big shot Summoner pursed his lips. "Every time we had a meeting, she would scold, 'Why are you roaring so loudly?!'
"Damn it!
"Didn't she think that if I lowered my voice, those people who were far away would not be able to hear me? Sigh, that was a backward era … "
？？？
Lu Ming was taken aback.
Damn.
It turned out that …
It turned out that this was the origin of various legends?!
"Where's that person?"
Lu Ming glanced at the few of them. There did not seem to be any young lady.
"She's dead."
The big shot Summoner sighed. "That young lady's lifespan is up … She has been gone for hundreds of years."
“？？？”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Wait a minute.
A few hundred years?!
A nine-star died of old age?!
"Then you …"
Lu Ming was shocked.
"Me?"
"I've lived for a long time."
The Summoner shrugged. "Because of the summoned beasts, we Summoners have a long lifespan and my summoned beast is more special …
"Anyway …
"I've lived through it.
"If you're willing, you can call me senior. If you don't like it, you can call me Old Du! "
Upon finishing his words …
He casually sent a picture to the group.
Lu Ming took a glance. It was a sage-like elder, riding on a summoned beast and flying across the sky. However, the beast that he was riding on was the legendary Duma …
