Divine Card Creator - Chapter 223
Chapter 223: The Old Card Was Replaced By A New Generation of Cards…
Qing Ming City.
In the school.
Lu Ming stared in shock at the stele.
To hell with it.
This was an ancient tomb!
His scalp felt numb.
Who would have thought that the college at the crossroads would be built on top of an ancient tomb?!
Fortunately, it was located deep down. Otherwise, given what happened on the field, the entire school would have collapsed! Was this the secret of the school?!
And, the tomb belonged to…
Lu Ming stared at it for a long time, but could not decipher these words.
For the word in the middle, he could only see one stroke on the bottom. Could it be the Chinese word ‘er’? He could only see small squares on the left and right sides. What could that be?
Zhou Ergou’s grave?
Lv Erdan’s grave?
“Stop looking.”
Jiang Feng pursed his lips. “It was too long ago. It can’t be read clearly anymore.”
“Alright.”
Lu Ming could only give up.
He then turned his gaze to the steps.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
A blossoming blue flame suddenly burned and the dark passageway to the tomb suddenly turned brighter.
According to rumors…
Every tomb was a treasure. When it was opened, it might be a legacy site with many treasures. He did not expect that there would be a tomb under the school!
It was no wonder…
Jiang Feng wanted to keep the school!
If the college at the crossroad disappeared, or if this place was redeveloped, those people might discover the tomb!
Wait a minute.
Lu Ming was suddenly reminded of something. Jiang Feng might be cultivating over here all these years… It was no wonder he was so powerful even though he was only an ordinary Card Creator…
And his blood-color card…
Jiang Feng’s secret was likely to be here!
And now, he took the initiative to bring Lu Ming here. Old Jiang…
It was good of him to do that!
“Aren’t you afraid that I will harm you?”
Jiang Feng glanced at Lu Ming.
“I am not afraid.”
Lu Ming looked collected. “If I die, my disciple will avenge me.”
Jiang Feng gave him an intense look. He had the urge to kill him.
Calm down!
He had to calm down!
“Listen.
There is a place in this tomb where your energy can transform quickly and you could breakthrough soon. After breaking through, we will leave as soon as possible. This is a special place. It’s best not to linger,” Jiang Feng instructed.
“Understood.”
Lu Ming realized something.
Ancient tomb…
He had only heard of this in the rumors. After all, not everyone was Nicholas Jiang Feng Lara… This place had been nourished for years. God knew what would be inside!
It was understandable if a zombie jumped out to shout for its father.
“Will the entrance be discovered?”
Lu Ming looked upward.
After all, they came down from the field.
“Don’t worry, I have used camouflage.”
Jiang Feng waved his hands.
Because of the previous two failures, he came prepared this time. This was a minor problem. It had already been dealt with.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming felt assured.
“Let’s go.”
Jiang Feng led Lu Ming down.
Shush!
The two of them walked down the long flight of stairs.
A gust of sinister aura came wafting over. Xiao-Xiaojian was excited, jumping about in the Sea of Consciousness, and the next second it was plastered onto the wall by the black cat.
“What’s the matter?”
Jiang Feng gave Lu Ming, who halted suddenly, a strange look.
“Don’t worry.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
After a long time…
The two of them reached the end of the flight of stairs.
Jiang Feng’s plan was actually very simple. This tomb was not too big. They would go inside, find the place, cultivate, breakthrough and leave! Everything would be done in a jiffy!
However…
They had just stepped down from the stairs and Jiang Feng looked grim.
Shush!
He suddenly looked into the distance. “Be careful, something is not right here. The aura here is very rich. Something strange has entered… The ground…”
Jiang Feng turned the soil on the ground carefully. “After I left, there were new footprints!”
Every time he left, he would wipe away his footprints.
However…
Right now…
Whoosh!
Cold winds flew past.
A cold wind swept from the depths of the tomb toward them.
“Shall we go back?”
Lu Ming felt slightly terrified.
Breaking through could not be rushed.
It was true.
Although he could break through in the tomb, it would not take too long if he cultivated by himself, especially for someone who led an idle life like him, there was no hurry.
Jiang Feng was expressionless.
Was this the unrivaled master that Xiaobai boasted of?
“Cut the crap!”
Jiang Feng looked displeased. “What’s there to be afraid of? It’s all the best if there’s no one. If not, we will just kill the person! This place must never be found out by others!”
“Alright.”
Lu Ming could only keep up with him.
Not too far in the distance.
They had just taken a few steps and they saw a corpse, an old searchlight, some old equipment, and a brand-new certificate.
Well…
Level two archaeological work certificate.
This was new.
“Why would the people from the Archaeological Association be here?”
Jiang Feng frowned.
The corpse was new and the archaeologist deliberately chose these ancient things so that they would not be corroded by the dark…
Obviously he came prepared.
“Here are his belongings.”
Lu Ming found a toolbox behind the corpse.
However…
This toolbox was also rusty. It was made from a special material, suggesting that it was ancient. There were a few rusty screws on top, locking the toolbox.
Click!
Jiang Feng took his tools, trying to open it by force.
Click!
It broke on the spot.
“It won’t do.”
Jiang Feng had some regrets. “We might need something very hard to open it.”
“How about forced destruction?”
Lu Ming was a little curious.
This toolbox did not seem like it used high-end technology!
“I’m afraid not.”
Jiang Feng shook his head. “Judging from the hardness, it would need a six-star to destroy it by force.”
Nowadays…
Things that were not high-tech were most difficult to deal with!
Especially for ancient things like this where they had no idea how old it was.
“Really?”
Lu Ming felt a little regretful.
However, looking at the appearance of the screw, he thought for a while and took out his Original Card. He inserted the Original Card and turned it by force…
Click!
The screw came loose.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming turned the screws excitedly.
Jiang Feng looked dumbstruck.
What the hell was this?
He didn’t know that the Original Card had this function!
Oo…
He pondered for a moment, took out his Original Card, inserted into another screw hole and turned.
Click!
There was a hole on the Original Card.
Jiang Feng’s face instantly darkened.
Why was it that Lu Ming’s Original Card could do it?
His Original Card had been through…
Click!
Lu Ming opened the toolbox.
There were some old tools and a work log inside, on which it was written that their team was invited to explore an ancient tomb, and…
There was nothing more.
“I supposed they came in from somewhere else. And died here…” Lu Ming analyzed.
“I hope so,” Jiang Feng spoke in a low voice.
They continued to walk inside.
Whoosh!
Cold air blew at them.
Darkness reached out to them.
The lights that Jiang Feng prepared instantly dimmed. They could only see less than one meter away. The darkness engulfed them, sending waves of terror through them. They could sense danger.
“This strange aura is getting stronger.”
Jiang Feng frowned.
This strange aura seemed like a haze and it became hazier.
This would not do…
If anything appeared in such close proximity, they could not escape in time…
“I’ll give it a try.”
Lu Ming’s voice was low.
“Don’t be rash.”
Jiang Feng waved his hand, looking grave. “Follow me. This place is unusual.”
When he went out alone, he often threw caution to the wind.
But this time, he was very clear about his purpose, and it was mainly to help Lu Ming to break through. Since he brought this child with him, he had to protect him…
Besides, he was Xiaobai’s master!
Therefore…
He was very cautious.
It was just that…
Buzz—
Bright lights shone.
It cleared the dark aura around them.
Jiang Feng was startled. He turned back to see that there was a crystal clear card next to Lu Ming. It was constantly flashing with faint green lights…
Buzz—
Buzz—
The dark aura disappeared under the green light.
Jiang Feng did not come to his senses.
Crap!
He didn’t know that the Original Card had this function!
“It is clearer now,” Lu Ming said.
“Okay.”
Jiang Feng gave him a deep stare. “Let’s go.”
With Lu Ming’s Original Card to light up the way, the passageways in the tomb became clear. However, they had taken a few steps when they discovered another body on the ground as well as a toolbox…
Half of the toolbox was buried in the soil.
Bang!
Jiang Feng tried to attack but to no avail.
“I can’t take it out.”
Jiang Feng had some slight regrets.
“Let me try?”
Lu Ming pondered deeply for a moment.
“Up to you.”
Jiang Feng shrugged. “The soil in this ancient tomb has evolved during these years and it was very hard. It is impossible to destroy it using ordinary means of attack…”
Just as he finished his words…
Buzz—
There was a strange sound.
Jiang Feng turned back and saw that the Original Card in Lu Ming’s hands was turning madly like a drill. It drilled into the ground and made a pothole.
Afterward…
It managed to dig the toolbox out from the ground.
“Got it.”
Lu Ming was overjoyed.
Jiang Feng was silent…
Crap!
He didn’t know that the Original Card had this function!
He looked at his Original Card and looked at Lu Ming’s…
Drilling…
Should he give it a try?
Click!
The ground was intact, but there was another crack on his Original Card.
Jiang Feng was vexed.
Click!
Lu Ming opened the toolbox.
It seems that these were the standard tools of the Archaeological Association. There were also some small items and a log. It said that they were a group of five people and they came in here by mistake and they had no way to escape.
“Came in by mistake…”
Jiang Feng narrowed his eyes.
The two of them went deeper into the tomb.
On the way.
They saw another two bodies, but they had long been dead, and there was nothing in their toolboxes. They left nothing behind, making them feel regretful.
Also…
From this distance…
“Are we reaching?”
Lu Ming felt a little strange.
Was the tomb this big?
“There’s something wrong with the direction.”
Jiang Feng looked into the distance. “This haze-like aura is too rich, I cannot sense anything. I can only try to recall the path according to my memory. I might have deviated slightly.”
“That place…”
Lu Ming pondered deeply.
It must be suitable for cultivation and one could not bring the energy away. It must be somewhere where there was a high concentration of sinister aura.
This place…
The Original Card was better at this!
“Go look for it.”
He instructed the Original Card.
Whoosh!
The Original Card jumped excitedly, pointing in a certain direction.
“This way.”
Lu Ming followed behind.
“Don’t run around!”
Jiang Feng’s expression changed drastically.
There were dangers lurking around in the tomb. There might be enemies here. They should not run about.
However…
They followed the Original Card to make two turns and discovered a tomb chamber, where there was a crystal clear jade bed inside. This seemed like a cultivation place.
“Is this the place?”
Lu Ming turned back to ask.
Jiang Feng was silent…
What the hell was this?
Lu Ming’s Original Card had navigation functions?!
He felt upset.
How should he say it?
He suddenly had the feeling that he was back in school.
In his memory, he remembered when he was still using the simple phone with buttons, the students had already changed to use a smart device with a huge screen…
Therefore…
The Original Card of a Card Creator had become that amazing!?
Besides creating cards, it had illumination, drilling and navigation functions. It could also be used as a tool.
It was very smart!?
“This is the place.”
Jiang Feng brought Lu Ming to the bedside. “Over here…”
Buzz—
A faint sound could be heard.
Oh?
Were there enemies?
Jiang Feng actually felt a glimmer of joy. As Xiaobai’s father, he must not lose his face in front of Lu Ming!
So what if it was smart!
It was ridiculous!
These days, one’s combat effectiveness was the strongest indicator!
His Original Card might not be as smart, and it did not have so many miscellaneous functions, but it had excellent combat effectiveness. Alright, it was time for Lu Ming to see for himself its capabilities…
Buzz—
Buzz—
Near the tomb chamber.
Black insects appeared from all the passageways.
Every bug carried a strange aura. They were comparable to a peak three-star!
They were extremely scary!
“Leave it to…”
Jiang Feng stepped forward and was about to show his capabilities.
At this moment.
Buzz—
Lu Ming’s Original Card shone once again.
The sinister aura that was attached to the insects dissipated. With that, the insects were not as lethal. They panicked and ran back to where they came from.
“What did you say?”
Lu Ming vaguely heard that Jiang Feng seemed to be talking just now.
Jiang Feng was silent.
Damn!
The Original Card could actually repel insects!
He looked closely at Lu Ming’s Original Card and at his Original Card before he put his away quietly.
The old card was replaced by a new generation of cards…
“Wait a minute.
Let me check it out.”
Jiang Feng carefully examined the tomb chamber.
No footprints. It seemed that those people had not been here. Those people seemed to be an archaeological team, and they strayed into this place from some other entrance…
Afterward, all of them died here.
After all, this place was not suitable for ordinary cultivators to come in.
“There is no problem.”
Jiang Feng had done his checks. “After years of nourishment, the jade bed has infinite energy. If you draw lines on it, you can temper while cultivating…”
“This bed…”
Lu Ming was speechless.
This was an ancient tomb!
Why would there be a bed here?!
Unless…
This place…
Was for its former owner.
That was to say, in a sense, the jade bed in the tomb chamber was the coffin! Although the former owner had died…
Lu Ming still felt strange.
“Young man, be more daring. Don’t care about these details.”
There was a smile in Jiang Feng’s eyes. Lu Ming was still a child and he was timid. He puffed up his chest. “Back then, I…”
Shush!
He had just finished his sentence when Lu Ming’s Original Card jumped onto the bed…?
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Lights shone.
The surrounding energy began to float slowly.
Jiang Feng did not come to his senses. Crap! The card could cultivate by itself?!
“Don’t worry about it.”
Lu Ming waved his hands. “It will cultivate by itself. Please continue. What happened back then?”
Jiang Feng was silent.
The Original Card could do this?!
“Well…”
Jiang Feng silent for a moment, before he gave his advice. “The jade bed is full of sinister aura. If there is excess tempering, it will hurt the card and the body…”
“Don’t worry.”
Lu Ming said truthfully, “It can purify the sinister aura.”
“Oh.”
Jiang Feng was dazed.
Could the Original Card purify the sinister aura?
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The Original Card burst with lights, tempering madly.
Jiang Feng sensed it and to his surprise, Lu Ming’s energy was being tempered slowly and he became stronger, from the limit of a peak three-star to breaking through…
But Lu Ming himself…
He walked around the ancient tomb leisurely.
That feeling…
Jiang Feng suddenly recalled the small game that he saw back then. It would operate by itself, attack the monsters and cultivate by itself. It was the latest version that one had never played before…
It was a pity…
As it would affect one’s cultivation, the game was stopped.
Since then, the game industry went downhill until recently when the Fruit Ninja appeared. It triggered the combination of gaming and cultivation and the industry was revived.
Of course.
They were well aware that the so-called automatic series were fake!
And now…
Was it true that the Original Card had developed to this stage?
…
