Catastrophe Card King-Chapter 500 - 176: Secret Fetus Parasitic Technique!
Chapter 500: Chapter 176: Secret Fetus Parasitic Technique!
He paused and frowned, “The problem is, I can’t pick it up.”
Leonard peered at the stone stage and sure enough, a bronze snake identical to the one he held laid there.
Upon seeing this bronze snake, everyone immediately realized it was the key to breaking the deadlock.
“It locates behind a stone carving under a waterfall, and immediately opens a certain barrier,” Elder Clinton explained as he reached out to grab it.
The bizarre thing was, like scooping the moon from the water, his entire arm passed through the stone stage as if it were an illusion, causing a ripple of light to wash over it but clutching nothing in the process.

Catherine Carter looked on, baffled, “An illusion?”
Elder Clinton shook his head, “No. The object is indeed here, but it’s interfered with a barrier, so we can’t touch it.”
Hearing his explanation, everyone fell silent.
The object was right before their eyes but they couldn’t grab it, leaving them frustrated.
However, Leonard seemed to recall something and said with certainty, “This is the divine secret skill, Mirror Flower Water Moon, of the Silver Moon Sect.”
At this, all three looked to him inquiringly.
By now, Leonard had almost guessed what was going on.
The entire Summer Shepherd City was there to keep something sealed.
But there was such severe contamination of faith in the Thirty-Three Levels of the Ghost Tower.
You could even say it was the divine projection of the Ancient God leaking in some form.
Although he wasn’t sure what had really happened back in the day, he could see that the entire city had been sealed, with its inhabitants having become undead.
He wondered what ordeal it had gone through.
The reason this bronze snake was in the Ghost Tower was most likely so the Ancient God’s followers could get it.
To ensure it would produce the desired effect after the barrier was broken, like helping him crack something, or acquiring some divine oracle legacy?
A multitude of possibilities flashed through Leonard’s mind.
Non-followers could hardly solve this level of Mirror Flower Water Moon technique unless their law-level comprehension was higher than that of the Ghost Tower itself.
Unfortunately for the tower, Leonard had come across this technique in the Silver Moon Secret Book.
But the main issue laid elsewhere now.
Leonard seemed to recall something and murmured, “All sorted?”
The process was so simple that he felt it was almost too smooth.
If they could get this second bronze snake, in theory, they would most likely be able to break through this Time Reverse Secret Realm.
However, it was precisely because of this thing that Leonard hesitated.
Hearing Leonard explain the origin of this secret skill, Elder Clinton and the others all looked at him expectantly.
Much to their surprise, Leonard did not take any action.
His gaze gradually deepened, as if he were contemplating something.
He remained silent, and so did Elder Clinton and the others, just watching.
Suddenly, Leonard seemed to have a thought, turned his face to look at Catherine Carter, the corners of his lips lightly raised.
Catherine was puzzled by his intimidating gaze.
It wasn’t about being flustered, just surprised.
What is this guy up to?
She was certain that he wasn’t planning to do anything frivolous and asked, “What is it?”
Leonard’s mouth turned up slightly, and he moved closer, asking in a charming voice, “Do you trust me?”
Despite Catherine’s intelligence, she was muddled by this question and instinctively frowned, “Huh?”
Their gazes met, the question so intimate in nature that those around them couldn’t help but sense an air of romance.
Elder Clinton rolled his eyes and muttered, “Ah… Young people these days, can’t they show a little restraint when displaying affection?”
Colin blinked, looking completely stunned.
With Leonard’s face practically touching Catherine’s, their closeness had her doubting her own judgment.
However, in that instant, Leonard murmured something in her ear, “Let’s do it again.”
Upon hearing this, Catherine instantly grasped his meaning like a bolt of electricity surging through her thoughts!
Before she could react, she heard the sizzle of flesh being pierced.
Catherine couldn’t suppress it and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Looking down, a bloodied wolf’s claw had pierced through her back.
There was no mercy or tenderness in Leonard’s movements. This strike went straight through her chest – a killing move.
A surprise attack, aimed to kill!
The previous romantic atmosphere suddenly changed into a murder scene, leaving Elder Clinton and the others shocked.
They couldn’t understand why Leonard would suddenly launch a surprise attack.
Although Catherine had figured out in the last moment what Leonard was going to do, and even cooperated with him,
the rapid drain of her life force and the ensuing weakness made her condition terrible.
With an injury this serious, she was literally hanging by a thread. She could even clearly feel that if that claw had struck a bit off course and pierced her heart, she would have died on the spot.
What were those heavy blows for?
Catherine didn’t understand yet. However, the next instant, she noticed an unusual bulge in her neck.
As if something was struggling to get out from under her skin.
A “ripping” sound rang out as the skin was torn apart, a pale arm reached out from Catherine’s shoulder!
Seeing this, even Leonard, who expected this, shrank his pupils drastically.
Colin widened his eyes at the side and drew his sword instantly.
An arm growing out of the neck?
What kind of monster is this?!
Only Elder Clinton saw through the origin of the spell, realizing, “Oh, a Secret Womb Parasite! This ancient forbidden technique was actually learned? This young lady is really… impressive.”
