Chapter 221: You Actually Secretly Got a New Hairdo!
Qing Ming City.
In the shop.
Lu Ming felt somewhat melancholic.
In the end, he had to give up on the thought of soaking in beast secretions.
There was no choice.
The Original Card refused to and he had no other ways. Actually, come to think of it, the Original Card would eventually be stored in his Sea of Consciousness. When that time came... its mind might be full of sh**...
It was hard to explain in a few words.
Forget it.
Lu Ming decided to find another solution.
Suddenly...
There was a flash of blood.
Who is that?
Lu Ming was instantly on his guard. He saw a flash of blood before his eyes. When he took a closer look, it was actually a card! Wait minute, this looked like...
Swoosh!
Blood-color flashed.
That card returned in a leisurely manner.
The Original Card also followed his gaze and did not recover its senses for a long time.
Crap!
Wasn’t this Xiao-Xiaobai?!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Blood-color flashed.
That dazzling glow finally disappeared. Xiao-Xiaobai that was normally crystal clear... A certain part on the surface of the Original Card had turned blood-color and it looked very strange and mysterious!
“This...”
The Original Card looked dumbstruck.
Damn you.
You shun my tattoos everyday. Yet, you actually secretly dyed your hair?!
This was too much!
“What is happening?”
Lu Ming was surprised.
Xiao-Xiaobai’s looks...
“It’s nothing.”
Xiaobai was somewhat troubled. “Isn’t this blood tempering? I gave it a try but the effect didn’t seem very good. It’s okay. I’ll continue to research it...”
Upon finishing her words...
She dragged Xiao-Xiaobai away.
Xiao-Xiaobai looked at Lu Ming in despair.
Lu Ming cast it a pitiful look. Sure enough, this child could not escape from the calamity.
Sorry.
There is nothing that I can do...
Lu Ming’s Original Card stared at Xiao-Xiaobai enviously. It is really good to be tempered with blood, unlike my idiotic master who only had poop in his mind.
“Xiaobai’s blood...”
Lu Ming’s heart stirred slightly.
Since it could mutate a small part of the Original Card, seemingly, Xiaobai’s blood also had some special effect?
That was right.
In his impression, Jiang Feng’s Original Card was also red!
Oh.
Wrong.
It was blood-red!
S-should he get Xiaobai to try?
However...
At the thought of Miss Xiaoqing’s words... She had to release some blood every day for a long time before she could attain a breakthrough to four-star... Lu Ming could not bear to let Xiaobai do that...
Sigh.
Forget it.
Lu Ming rubbed his head. He would break through in a normal way.
Actually, coincidentally, there was a four-star Card Creator whom he was familiar with. Furthermore, considering the other party’s talent, he must have attained a breakthrough normally and did not have any side effects...
However...
The other party was his disciple and he idolized him...
“If I ask him directly, will his belief system collapse?”
Lu Ming was worried.
There were very few masters like him who spared so much thought for their disciples.
Well...
He would try asking him.
Li Haaron should be aware that he had not attained four-star yet.
The time was just right.
He also wanted to know what Li Haoran had been doing recently.
...
At this very moment...
Somewhere.
Li Haoran was refining the profiles of the Sword Card Masters.
Master: Lu Ming, Card spirit: Xiao-Xiaojian
Senior sister: Jiang Yuebai, Card spirit: Xiao-Xiaobai
Second senior brother: Yan Suqi, Card spirit: Xiao-Xiaolei
Third senior brother: Li Haoran, Card spirit: Xiao-Xiaoshé
...
After a long time...
Li Haoran paused.
However, after he finished creating the profiles, he kept feeling that something was amiss. After pondering for a long time, he created a new file and finally began to write again.
Filename: “The Untold Stories of Sword Card Master”
Access rights: Sword Card Master internal members
Shush!
Shush!
A quiet voice could be heard.
Vaguely.
One could see some words appearing on the screen.
The Sword Card Master was created by Lu Ming.
One day, a rush of ferocious beasts appeared. My master took action and killed the five-star peak beasts in seconds...
On another day, there was a shocking discovery of a five-star bar spirit in the college at the crossroads. My master took action and exterminated it with the wave of one hand...
On a certain day, there was a huge calamity in Qing Ming City. My master took action and killed a six-star python in seconds...
...
After a long time...
Li Haoran finally finished penning these thoughts satisfactorily.
Actually, he did not have much of an understanding of his master. However, just these anecdotes from his investigations in Qing Ming City over the past few days were already shocking enough!
There were still many more things that he dared not write about.
For example—
The mysterious Swordsman Flash was very possibly his master!
Wait a minute.
As he gained more understanding of his master, the more astounded he felt. At the same time, he felt ashamed of his ignorance in the past. He even went knocking on his doors to challenge him...
Sigh.
If he had challenged other cultivators who were more powerful than him, most probably they would have long killed him?!
However...
Lu Ming not only did not blame him but also accepted him as his disciple and imparted his knowledge to him...
How magnanimous was that?
He would have no regrets in life to have such a master.
...
Suddenly...
His communication device rang.
Li Haoran’s heart trembled. “Master.”
“How’s your cultivation recently? Is everything alright?” Lu Ming asked.
“Very good,” Li Haoran said emotionally. “The card spirit already knows how to cultivate on its own. I just need to prepare better lines to control its cultivation speed. That will do.”
“That’s good.”
Lu Ming nodded slightly. “It seems that you’re the first four-star Sword Card Master.”
“How can that be?”
Li Haoran felt somewhat embarrassed.
He was very clear.
He was at a higher level before he transferred vocation. Be it master or senior sister, their comprehension of Sword Card Master far exceeded him!
However...
Speaking of this...
“Master. Coincidentally, there’s something that I want to report.”
Li Haoran said in a deep voice, “Second senior has already reached three-star peak and is on the brink of having a breakthrough. After thinking, I wrote the guidelines on the materialization of the Original Card based on my experience...
I hope that you will have the time to help me review it?”
Over at the other side of the phone, his master was seemingly silent for a long time.
Li Haoran felt somewhat unsettled.
These were some of his humble opinions on four-star. He did not know if his master would laugh at him.... or blame him for neglecting his main duties?
After all...
His combat ability was only four-star...
It was still took weak!
Besides...
This was a breakthrough experience of a Card Creator and might be different from that of a Sword Card Master...
“Send it to me.”
Lu Ming’s voice could be heard. “I’ll take a look first.”
“Thank you, master.”
Li Haoran heaved a sigh of relief.
He gingerly tidied up the information and sent it.
At this very moment...
He was unaware of something.
Lu Ming, who was situated far away in Qing Ming City, was wearing a strange expression. He really did not expect Li Haoran to actually pen the experience of the Original Card materialization. This was really... his biological disciple!
Oh.
Right.
What did he say it was for? Xiaoyan was already at three-star peak?
Lu Ming had a sudden realization.
Wait a minute.
These two non-mainstream disciples had already surpassed him?!
“It seems that I have to quickly breakthrough.”
Lu Ming looked solemn.
Buzz—
The wristband vibrated.
Li Haoran saw that it was the information sent by Li Haoran. He opened it and there was the experience of his breakthrough to four-star and the notes of the materialization of the Original Card.
The data... was very detailed.
The stability, hardness, and structure of the Original Card...
Wait a minute.
It had everything that one could wish for.
He even created an Original Card materialization indicator based on the data of the materialization of his Original Card in the past — As long as you exceeded this standard, almost all the Original Cards could materialize successfully!
And this standard...
Lu Ming took a glance. The Sword Card Master could kill in seconds!
The power of a Sword Card Master’s Original Card was almost comparable to a Sword Embryo. How could it not meet the mark?
Since that was the case, why did the earlier condensation fail?
Copying
Cloning...
Suddenly...
Lu Ming’s gaze landed on the lively and hopping Original Card. He was instantly enlightened. When the Original Card materialized, would it also try to materialize the card spirit inside it?!
That was possible!
The materialization of the Original Card had to be thorough!
Lines!
Energy!
There was everything!
Since this was the case...
The spirit body could not escape from this calamity!
After all...
In normal circumstances, which three-star vocation core had spirit bodies?
It was impossible!
Therefore...
The materialization technique did not consider all of this. It simply materialized everything. That was when the problem occurred. Since that was the case if he could exclude the spirit body...
Shush!
Lu Ming’s eyes lit up.
He tried to materialize the Original Card again.
Buzz—
Lights flashed.
In his heart, the template of the Original Card appeared. Endless energy surged and began to condense in his hands according to this template. Lights dazzled...
Buzz—
Buzz—
A card that was shining faintly finally materialized in his hands.
It was successful!
Lu Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
Materialization...
He had finally completed this step!
Depletion...
Well...
There was no need to think about this.
The materialization of the Original Card must have depleted all the energy in the Original Card completely!
Regardless of the ability!
Regardless of the lines!
Even if it was a blank card, all the energy would be depleted!
“Hmm.”
Lu Ming held the card before his eyes.
It was crystal clear.
It was flickering with fluorescent lights.
It was very beautiful.
As it was purely condensed by energy, his card looked extraordinary. As to its content? It was the Fruit Ninja that Lu Ming tested with.
Swoosh!
The Original Card lunged towards him.
It stared at the card before it with a perplexed expression.
“Let me try.”
Lu Ming tried to cast it.
“Wait a minute.”
The Original Card paused for a moment. “Let me take a look again.”
“Huh?”
Lu Ming was surprised.
“Well...”
The Original Card was somewhat embarrassed. “After all, it came from my body... That is a strange feeling... It is formed with the energy from my body...”
This card was identical to it!
It was very amazing.
It was like a child...
It was in a trance.
Ah...
When he was a sword spirit in the past, he had never thought that being a card spirit was like that? But then again, this kind of feeling was really strange...
Its gaze had a slight longing to it.
Could this be the bloodline connection that the humans spoke of?
It was very intriguing.
“Haha.”
Lu Ming only smiled faintly.
“Child. Think of it from a different perspective. Different things come out from your body, not only children but also poop...”
Lu Ming consoled and said.
The Original Card instantly looked exasperated.
All its touching feelings and strange emotions instantly transformed into nothing.
Damn you!
Can’t you let me experience this for a moment?!
Why is your brain full of such things...
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The Original Card glowed rampantly.
Ah.
It really felt like self-erupting.
Lu Ming was too much!
It was so frustrating!
...
“Haha.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
He then began to test the effect of the materialized card.
Well...
One-time usage!
Test 1: The power of the Fruit Ninja was normal. It was neither stronger nor weaker.
“It seems like a normal card.”
Lu Ming pondered deeply.
He would try another card?
Hence...
He changed the lines on the Original Card. This time, he put the Burial Mound Warrior. When his energy recovered, he tried to condense the Original Card again. The effect was the same...
It was very normal and there was nothing strange about the card.
Test 2: The powers of the Burial Mound Warrior was normal.
“I’ll look at the depletion rate.”
Lu Ming regained his energy.
He tried to cast it when he was in the midst of recovering his energy and it did not work.
Therefore...
Test 3: The Original Card could only materialize when one had full energy. It could not be cast even with slightly lesser energy.
“What about the card level that it can withstand?”
Lu Ming used the four-star Burial Mound Card this time.
This was the card that he had not finished studying.
Afterward...
Materialization!
Buzz—
Buzz—
Energy was rampantly depleted!
Although the energy in the Original Card was full, it did not seem adequate. Lu Ming quickly took out the four-star Energy Card that he prepared and supplied energy. It then stabilized.
“It should be due to the quality of energy!”
Lu Ming realized something.
His energy quality was only three-star peak! And the four-star Burial Mound Card required better energy. Therefore, the energy in the Original Card was not enough to materialize it!
As a result, the energy was lacking.
However...
Buzz—
Buzz—
Along with the depletion of energy, the card was successfully completed in Lu Ming’s hands!
Success!
A four-star burial mound card really appeared in his hands.
“It’s out.”
Lu Ming was amazed.
The materialization of the Original Card could really create a card that he had not studied.
It was amazing!
If that was the case, at a higher level... After pondering, Lu Ming calmed down again. He reckoned that that would not be possible.
First, he needed seven cards for cards at a higher level...
This condition could not be fulfilled!
After all...
He could only materialize one card at a time.
Well...
From a certain perspective, it had the ability to cast a ‘card that had not been created’.
In the past.
He could only cast the four-star Moonlight Card, three-star Burial Mound Card and four-star Cloud Shuttle Card.
But now?
Everything could advance by one level — Five-star Moonlight Card, four-star Burial Mound Card and five-star Cloud Shuttle Card!
It was fine even if he had not studied them. Through lightning integration, he could materialize the card with his Original Card and create them directly!
“This is formidable!!!”
Lu Ming was stunned.
In that case...
His combat ability would increase tremendously!
Of course.
On the premise that he had enough energy!!!
As for the five-star energy quality, how much four-star energy was required and how much three-star energy was needed for conversion, he could only test them slowly later on.
The outcome.
Test 4: There was no limit to the materialization of the Original Card. As long as the card’s structure was hard and stable enough, it could definitely materialize the lines in the Original Card!
Lastly, it was how long it could last.
As the card was condensed by energy, it would not last that long.
Well...
Lu Ming quietly observed the state of the card.
Ten seconds: It was fine.
Twenty seconds: Slight amount of energy was lost.
Fifty seconds: A significant amount of energy was lost.
Two minutes: The card began to shake.
Three minutes: The card dissipated into energy.
Collapse!
“Three minutes!”
Lu Ming’s heart stirred slightly.
He condensed another Fruit Ninja Card again and tested it. This time, he infused energy before the energy was used up and was shocked to discover that... that he could actually lengthen the energy in the card temporarily!
“Hmm.”
Lu Ming had gained some understanding now.
Based on the stability of the structure of the Original Card now, it could only persist for three minutes. If he were to infuse energy, it was akin to the Indian God Lotion that could lengthen the persistence time...
At the thought of this...
He cast a glance at the Original Card and sighed deeply. “Useless!”
The Original Card looked dumbstruck.
What did I do to provoke you?!
At this moment.
The testing ended.
Lu Ming also had a certain understanding of the materialization of the Original Card.
“Haoran. Look at this part...
The transformation is completely different between the Sword Card Master and Card Creator. For the sword spirit, it should be...
For the Original Card materialization, it should be...
And the card...”
Lu Ming told Li Haoran about his experiment outcomes.
“I see.”
Li Haoran was extremely ashamed.
If people were to follow his guidelines, they would not succeed at all! Master’s few pointers had enlightened him.
Master was certainly profound and well-learned.
“I’ve been too complacent.
I attempted to deduce the Sword Card Master guidelines from the Card Creator’s...
It turns out that...
Sword Card Master is supposed to be like that?”
Li Haoran reorganized his thoughts.
This time...
He followed his master’s teachings and began to write the next stage of guidelines seriously – “The Sword Card Master’s Six Stage Guidelines – The Materialization of the Original Card”.
Creator: Lu Ming
Editor: Li Haoran
