Divine Card Creator-Chapter 424 - Regardless Of Whether Your Are An Eunuch Cat Or Not In The Future You Will Be My Father!
In the suburbs, somewhere.
“Lu Ming.
“Sign the contract.”
The Sky Water Sword’s ethereal and majestic voice reverberated in the air.
“Henceforth…
“I will be your most powerful weapon!”
It still sounded calm.
Lu Ming looked at the subtitles in his Sea of Consciousness that flashed hundreds lines per second and at the Sky Water Sword in front of him which was taking its time. He was amazed at the abilities of the spirit body.
He was impressed at its ability to multitask!
“Okay.”
Lu Ming nodded.
“I will sign the contact. However, there is something I don’t know if I should say or not.”
Lu Ming hesitated.
“Please speak your mind.”
Sky Water Sword sounded calm.
“Well…”
Lu Ming sighed. “You know that previously a certain presence I know of was able to hear Xiao-Xiaojian’s inner thoughts.”
“Yes.”
The Sky Water Sword was somewhat puzzled. “And?”
“Actually…”
Lu Ming was somewhat embarrassed. “It can still hear them now.”
Shush!
Time seemed to have frozen.
Even the screen that was madly flashing with subtitles seemed to be stuck in time and the Sky Water Sword in front of Lu Ming fell silent in that instant.
“That… that c-can’t be?”
The Sky Water Sword said calmly.
However…
It was such a pity.
Lu Ming could acutely feel that its voice was shaking.
“That’s true.”
Lu Ming sighed. “Therefore, the presence has not only seen through someone’s schemes, it has also seen through its every thought, as well… as what it wanted to do.”
The Sky Water Sword was silent.
After a long while…
It sighed. “This has nothing to do with me…”
Whoosh!
Lights and shadow flashed.
The Sky Water Sword which had just pretended to be calm fled in that moment, flying into the distance instantly.
However…
Crash!
A black figure flashed.
The Sky Water Sword that had escaped into the distance disappeared without any signs. When it reappeared, it was in Lu Ming’s Sea of Consciousness.
Over there, at the center of the Sea of Consciousness, the black cat lay lazily, stretching out its paw calmly, pressing onto the Sky Water Sword that was flashing madly in a bid to escape.
Well….
It had a tight grip on the sword.
Buzz—
Buzz—
The Sky Water Sword flashed multiple times but could not move at all.
The black cat stretched its paws lazily, as if it was Mount Tai[1] pressing down on Sky Water Sword. It watched as the ancient Excalibur struggled and one of its paws gently waved.
Click!
Its sharp claws grazed the Sky Water Sword.
Click!
There was a crack on the sword.
It was very obvious.
“Oo… Oo…
“Brother Cat.
“I was wrong.”
Xiao-Xiaojian had tears in its eyes.
“I am sorry. I am too egoistic.
“I really didn’t mean it!
“Oo… Oo…
“What I said just now is nonsense. I am telling the truth. Spirit bodies that have low IQ like me are generally not smart. Don’t take issue with me.”
Xiao-Xiaojian repented.
However…
The black cat looked at it with nonchalance.
Click!
Its claws grazed across the sword.
There was another crack on the sword.
“This is the truth!
“Lu Ming?
“Please help me plead for leniency.”
Xiao-Xiaojian was frightened.
Now that it had integrated with Sky Water Sword, if the sword was destroyed, heaven knew what would happen!
To hell with it!
It was still young.
It did not want to die!
“Oo… Oo…
“Lu Ming.
“I said all those words just now to ask for a better treatment.”
Xiao-Xiaojian pleaded for mercy. “I am telling the truth. If I were devious, I would not have tricked the elder into coming here, neither would I have helped you kill him.”
“Oh?”
Lu Ming was somewhat surprised. “Did you help me kill him?”
“Of course.”
Xiao-Xiaojian was teary-eyed. It turned out that Lu Ming thought that it had not made any contribution. “Your Interruption Card only froze time. It didn’t really interrupt time!
“Think about it. No one blows up in 0.08 seconds!
“Even an Elementalist could not do it, notwithstanding a Swordsman!
“When you cast the Interruption Card and time froze, the elder could not interfere, and hence I could temporarily control the power of Sky Water Sword! I am the one who made the power of the elder explode in 0.08 seconds!
“If not, how could you have won!”
Lu Ming was speechless.
No wonder he felt that the elder was too weak… it had only been 0.08 seconds and he could not make it.
It turned out that Xiao-Xiaojian was secretly helping him!
In that case…
Everything made sense.
Lu Ming thought it through and finally understood. Since the elder used the power of the Sky Water Sword that was why Xiao-Xiaojian, which was the sword spirit, could easily control it!
Well….
He understood everything now.
In that case, Xiao-Xiaojian was sincere about helping him.
“Then why do you want to sign a contract with me?!”
Lu Ming was unhappy.
“I was trying to secure a better treatment…”
Xiao-Xiaojian was aggrieved.
“A—alright.”
Lu Ming understood now.
“Brother Cat?”
He looked toward the black cat.
The black cat was still as indifferent, its expression cold and nonchalant.
Obviously…
Xiao-Xiaojian did not manage to impress the cat with its words. The sharp claws still rested on Sky Water Sword, not releasing it. In fact, there was a flash of coldness.
“Lu Ming?”
Xiao-Xiaojian pleaded with him.
It knew that Lu Ming was the only person who could save him!
“Hmm…”
Lu Ming pondered deeply for a moment.
Sigh.
The card should not have scolded Brother Cat for no reason.
However…
There seemed to be a way out.
Hence…
Lu Ming came up with an idea.
Everyone knew what Sino-Japanese relations and Sino-Korean relations were dependent on. It was the eternal truth. Therefore, all he needed was to…
Well….
He could casually ask an idiotic question.
If Xiao-Xiaojian dissed Lu Ming as usual and Lu Ming pretended to be unhappy, Brother Cat might find them funny and it would let Xiao-Xiaojian off when it was in a good mood.
In that case…
He would be showing gratitude to Xiao-Xiaojian for cooperating with him when he used the Interruption Card just now.
It was perfect!
Hence Lu Ming asked, “Xiao-Xiaojian, let me ask you a question. You have to answer it in 0.01 seconds. If you are right, Brother Cat might let you go.”
“Sure!”
Xiao-Xiaojian had tears in its eyes.
Oo… Oo…
Lu Ming is the best!
“It is a simple question.”
Lu Ming asked, “Among the three of us, who do you think is most idiotic?”
Eh?
It was obvious that Xiao-Xiaojian paused momentarily.
However…
It was alright that it paused but the screen that represented its thoughts was still there. It revealed its thoughts right away… there was a cat on the screen…
Shush!
There was silence in the Sea of Consciousness.
Lu Ming who had intended to appear unhappy was speechless.
The black cat who was watching the fun was silent.
Xiao-Xiaojian who felt dumbstruck was shocked.
“Forget it.
“There is no point in saving you.”
Lu Ming sighed. “Don’t you usually think that I am most stupid?”
“That is because you were helping me just now.”
Xiao-Xiaojian had tears in its eyes.
Although it would always taunt Lu Ming, Lu Ming was willing to help it just now. It naturally felt that Lu Ming was a good person and would not taunt him. Instead he would taunt the enemy!
This was an instinctive reaction!
It wanted to take back its words.
It was a pity…
It was too late.
Click!
There was a crisp and clear sound.
There was another crack on Sky Water Sword.
“Lu Ming!”
Xiao-Xiaojian wailed.
It was a pity…
The black cat who had given in multiple times could no longer tolerate it.
Shush!
Its sharp claws flashed.
This was the legendary ancient Excalibur.
The legendary Excalibur had infinite power and was even able to summon Xiao-Xiaojian by force. However, it cracked in that instant!
Click!
It shattered into pieces like glass.
There were endless lights on the Sky Water Sword.
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
The Sky Water Sword shattered into many pieces.
The ancient Excalibur was like paper pulp in Brother Cat’s hands!!! Brother Cat’s combat capabilities might be far stronger than what Lu Ming imagined!!!
Of course, this was not the main point.
Right now, Lu Ming was more concerned about Xiao-Xiaojian…
Bang!
The Sky Water Sword shattered into multiple pieces.
There was a glint of indifference in the golden pupils of the black cat. It watched silently as the Sky Water Sword turned into fragments as it looked at the flash of light that was shining in the open.
That was…
Xiao-Xiaojian!
Now that Sky Water Sword had shattered into pieces…
Xiao-Xiaojian’s body was fading away…
Yes, the Sky Water Sword was its body!
Even if the Original Card dissipated, it would not disappear! No matter how Lu Ming tortured it, it would be alright. However, once the Sky Water Sword disappeared, Xiao-Xiaojian…
Buzz—
Golden lights flashed.
The black cat threw its paws at Xiao-Xiaojian.
“Lu Ming!
“Save me!”
Xiao-Xiaojian was frightened.
However…
Surprisingly, although the black cat swung its paws, it did not send Xiao-Xiaojian flying, instead, it caught it up!
Afterward…
The cat shoved it into Lu Ming’s Original Card.
Crash!
Crash!
The black cat shoved Xiao-Xiaojian’s head into the cracks of the Lightning Original Card.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Xiao-Xiaojian was speechless.
Crash!
Crash!
Loud sounds could be heard.
If the elder in the bell was still alive, he must have been very pleased. He was not the only person whose head was caught in between the cracks…
This was the first time!
Crash!
Crash!
Crash!
Brother Cat shoved Xiao-Xiaojian violently into the Original Card. It gathered the fragments of the Sky Water Sword in the sky and shoved them together with Xiao-Xiaojian into the Original Card!
Buzz—
Buzz—
The Original Card shone.
The Original Card transformed when Xiao-Xiaojian and Sky Water Sword were shoved back inside of it.
Buzz—
Lights dazzled!
After a long while…
When the glow receded…
A strange and mysterious Original Card appeared in front of Lu Ming.
The traces of lightning that were originally on the Original Card started to twist. It kept changing in that moment and formed a sword that was condensed from lightning!!!
Cheez—
Cheez—
Electric lights were flashing.
It looked exactly like the Sky Water Sword!
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn it! Is this the legendary Flash Card?
Wait a minute.
Whether it flashed or not was not the main point, the point was where was Xiao-Xiaojian? Lu Ming was worried that Brother Cat’s violent beatings had caused Xiao-Xiaojian to suffer from a concussion…
“O-over here…”
Xiao-Xiaojian’s weak voice could be heard from the Original Card.
Lu Ming was overjoyed.
Oh.
It was shoved back inside…
“This is… so painful.”
Xiao-Xiaojian had tears in its eyes.
It was grateful that Brother Cat did not kill it, however…
It was in pain.
Buzz—
Buzz—
The Original Card floated in front of the black cat.
The black cat stared at the Original Card that was suspended in front of it and at Xiao-Xiaojian that was inside it. It was reminded that Xiao-Xiaojian was being summoned back by the Sky Water Sword.
Well….
Shush!
It flashed its paws and captured Xiao-Xiaojian again.
“Brother Cat?”
Xiao-Xiaojian was frightened.
Shush!
Shush!
The black cat made streaks on the Original Card. At that moment, golden lights flashed from the streaks. There was a layer of detailed lines covering the Original Card.
Buzz—
Golden lights flashed.
The golden outline surrounding the Original Card flashed. It cut off any possibility of Xiao-Xiaojian escaping from the card. It was useless even if it had the Sky Water Sword…
There was no way it could leave!
Buzz—
Buzz—
The transformed card was suspended in mid-air once again.
Lights dazzled.
Yes.
After the changes done by Brother Cat, the Original Card had transformed once again!
Right then…
Lu Ming was taken aback. He stared at the dazzling Original Card. In his mind, there seemed to be an elder shouting in an unbearable voice—”Wow, that was the golden legend”[2]!
After a long while…
Lu Ming finally came to his senses.
“Xiao-Xiaojian.
“Hurry and thank Brother Cat.”
Lu Ming glared at it
“Thank you, Brother Cat,” Xiao-Xiaojian said with much difficulty.
This is really…
Why can they not communicate peacefully?
The big boss was almost scared to death… prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony, freedom, equality[3.Core socialist values]… But Brother Cat is after all Brother Cat. It is getting more and more powerful!
→_→
The black cat swept its gaze over the card, ignoring it.
Suddenly…
A strange power exploded in the Sea of Consciousness.
Over in Brother Cat’s original position where it had built its nest, some kind of force seemed eager to come out, trying to break it open.
However…
Just when the power was about to burst forth…
Crash!
Brother Cat sat on it again.
Shush!
There was a sudden silence in the Sea of Consciousness.
Oh…
Lu Ming recalled that a powerful cultivator had left his mark.
“Brother Cat is amazing!”
What else could he say?
After a long while…
Brother Cat felt tired and went to sleep. Lu Ming returned to reality with Xiao-Xiaojian.
…
At this moment…
It was very late at night.
Lu Ming appeared in the suburbs.
Buzz—
The golden lights of the Original Card burst forth.
Lu Ming lifted his hands and the Original Card appeared in his hands.
Bang!
Bang!
The Original Card dazzled.
Lu Ming vaguely saw the Sky Water Sword that was formed by lightning shaking in the darkness.
Shush!
“This card…”
Lu Ming was puzzled. Was it still a card?
“Xiao-Xiaojian.”
“Yes.”
“What features do you have now?”
Lu Ming asked.
Xiao-Xiaojian was confused as well. It pondered deeply before saying, “Illumination?”
Lu Ming suddenly had an urge to kill someone.
It was a good-for-nothing!
If he had known that this was the case, he would definitely not have saved it!
“Believe it or not, I will shove you back in.”
Lu Ming was expressionless.
Cough, cough.
Xiao-Xiaojian coughed. “I have just returned to the card. The small house has suddenly changed into a seven-floored villa. You have to give me some time to look around.
“Hmm…
“The lightning integration… seems to be still there.
“Also…”
Crash!
Crash!
Crash!
The Original Card suddenly shook about in the air.
Lu Ming was speechless.
What is it doing?
Xiao-Xiaobai was not around. Why would it be shaking the card[3]?!
After a long while…
The Original Card stopped.
Xiao-Xiaojian transmitted its thoughts again. “The robustness and stability of the Original Card are stronger than before. Its strength seems similar… to the Sky Water Sword!
“It seems…
“That Sky Water Sword and the Original Card have integrated together.”
Xiao-Xiaojian was stunned.
It finally understood something.
Although Brother Cat and it came from ancient times, perhaps Brother Cat was much stronger than it had imagined! At the very least, for countless years, the Sky Water Sword had never been destroyed! No ordinary man had the power to destroy the Sky Water Sword, including seven-stars! However…
Brother Cat shattered it with its paws!
Not only that, it integrated the fragments of Sky Water Sword into the Original Card…
What kind of demonic power was it?!
Therefore…
In the future, it was best not to taunt Brother Cat.
It had decided that in the future as Brother Cat was that powerful, it would be its father! Regardless of whether it was castrated or a eunuch or neither, Brother Cat would be its father!
Somewhere.
The black cat swung its tail about, resisting the urge to give it another round of beatings. Was it praising it or scolding it?!
…
“Oh?”
Lu Ming was elated. “If the Sky Water Sword has integrated with the card, what about its effects of enhancing talents…”
Talent!
It was the foundation of all cultivators!
The method to enhance one’s talent was very rare. He had changed his destiny after obtaining the Art of Equalization. And there was another such skill in the Sky Water Sword!
This talent enhancement method could help an ordinary man become a peak six-star!
Lu Ming was very interested in this.
Hence…
He controlled the Original Card in excitement.
Buzz—
Lights flashed.
Lu Ming sensed the energy in the Original Card. However, his expression became ugly instantaneously. The energy did not feel right…
Wait a minute.
This speed…
Shush!
Lu Ming’s body shook. He was shocked to discover that his cultivation speed had returned to normal!
It had returned to how he used to be before equalization!
The Art of Equalization…
It had disappeared!!!
“How is that possible?!”
Lu Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
Why would the Art of Equalization disappear after the Original Card integrated with Sky Water Sword?!
“Xiao-Xiaojian?”
Lu Ming asked. “What’s going on?”
“Let me see.”
Xiao-Xiaojian sensed the situation right away.
After a long while…
It came to its senses and there was a strange look on its face.
“What’s the matter?”
Lu Ming was tensed up.
“The Art of Equalization…”
Xiao-Xiaojian paused. “It has been eaten.”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
“It’s like this…”
Xiao-Xiaojian reorganized its thoughts. “After practicing the Art of Equalization, it was in your Original Card and based on the vocation core! As for Sky Water Sword, due to the powerful Father Cat, it appeared in the Original Card in an unprecedented form!
“This was originally a good idea. But…
“As the Art of Equalization and Sky Water Sword are two different ways to enhance one’s talents, they are not compatible and there was a violent conflict…
“Uh—
“If I put it across using your language, it’s like java and c++ were placed in the same program.
“Then…
“Crash!
“You should understand.
“However, due to the powerful integration abilities of Sky Water Sword Original Card, it turned the originally incompatible code into something more powerful by force!
“Then…
“There was only one left. Do you understand?”
Xiao-Xiaojian explained.
It explained to Lu Ming in the language that was most familiar to him. Although it had no idea what java was or why it was named that way.
Lu Ming did not come to his senses for a long while.
What kind of magic fantasy plot is this?
Programs…
He had never heard of programs that would swallow each other!
“The legacy will not work but the Original Card can.”
Xiao-Xiaojian pursed its lips. “Don’t forget the original special ability of the Lightning Original Card. It is integration!
“So…
“That was why it turned out like this.
“Of course, you don’t have to be too pessimistic. After the Art of Equalization was swallowed, the original talent enhancing secret skill of the Sky Water Sword underwent a huge change! Now even I don’t know what the situation is.
“Why don’t… you give it a try?”
Xiao-Xiaojian suggested.
Buzz—
Buzz—
The Original Card floated in the air, the Sky Water Sword that was on top dazzled, This was a card that was beyond Lu Ming’s and Xiao-Xiaojian’s imagination. The features had been changed totally as well!
New talents…
Lu Ming pondered deeply for a moment.
Hence…
He activated the ability in the Original Card according to the talent enhancing method provided by Xiao-Xiaojian.
Bang!
The Original Card shone.
There was a golden Sky Water Sword in the area between Lu Ming’s eyebrows!!!
Buzz—
Sky Water Sword burst with brilliance.
The energy that was lost due to the Art of Equalization had been quickly recovered. Lu Ming felt that his energy quickly increased to the state before the disappearance of the Art of Equalization!
Furthermore…
It was stronger than before!!!
