Chapter 155: Are You Having…?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qing Ming City.
At the shop.
Lu Ming was studying the card in front of him.
Sword Plunge, explosive trump card!
In simple terms, one could be aided by the Sword Aura through a self-torturing method to awaken one’s potential by force, stimulating one’s blood!
All these would increase one’s combat effectiveness!
Perhaps…
w.a.n.g Tianjun felt that a Sword Aura was not able to solve the problem. After all, if the trump card was a Sword Aura and the enemy survived it, the situation would be very dangerous! Instead, this method where it stimulated one’s potential and gained power in a short period of time would be useful to help one to fight a way through the battle!
One could choose between fighting or fleeing!
However…
It was too much self-torture…
This ability was not compatible with Lu Ming!
It seemed that w.a.n.g Tianjun’s style was to break through one’s potential in close-range battle and to fight one’s way out!
As for him…
Even if he was a Swordsman, Lu Ming had decided to lead an idle life. Even if he really had to fight, no one dictated that a Swordsman must risk his life!
His style was the AP Sword Aura!
There was nothing that one Sword Aura could not solve. If not, he could use two Sword Auras.
Close-range?
He would use Moonblade to deal with close-range combat!
As for this Sword Plunge, it was useless to him!
However…
It might be useless…
He still had to learn it.
This was so not only because it was the lines of a card, but it was a rare four-star Swordsman Card. Moreover, it was not encrypted, the lines were very much worth learning!
Also…
If it was a four-star…
Would his cultivation speed be faster?
Lu Ming was hopeful.
Learn!
He had to learn them!
As for whether it would be useful, he would think about it later!
Anyway, he and Jiang Feng would protect Xiaobai. There was no need for her to use this. It was good that he could learn some knowledge on the lines.
Hence…
Lu Ming began to study the card, he even estimated the testing data in advance.
——
Self-created Name: Idiot Swordplay – Sword Plunge.
Card Rating: four-star.
Vocation Type: Swordsman.
Card Effect: The Sword Aura will enter the body so that one’s abilities will increase dramatically within a short period of time!
Side Effect: Blood spewing!
Duration: This was dependent on the amount of blood in one’s body…
——
Hahahaha.
He wanted to know the real effect of the card!
If it was too dangerous, perhaps he should make the enemy use it?
Or something along the line…
Oh.
He should create it first.
Shus.h.!.+
Lu Ming looked at the card.
It was very special.
To the ordinary Card Creators, this was a very difficult card. To be exact, this was a Swordsman Card. To Card Creators, it was at the highest difficulty level!
This was due to the Sword Aura!
This was due to the mental strength!
This was due to the vocational characteristics…
A Card Creator would not be able to understand all these.
However…
To Lu Ming, it was very simple!
As a powerful Card Creator and as a bogus Swordsman who had been forced to receive the legacy by Lunar Shadow, everything was very clear to Lu Ming!
“Hmm.
This is how the Sword Aura lines look…
This is what the lines of the flowing aura look like…
These are the Moon-like Sword Aura lines…”
…
Lu Ming never had such clarity of mind.
He had the Lunar Shadow legacy!
There was a lot of information in his mind that Lunar Shadow had forced him to receive, including a large number of basic Swordplays and all kinds of foundation knowledge. If there was any part that he did not understand, he would create and seal it by himself! He would then resume his study of the card and if there was anything wrong, he would do a cross-comparison!
It was that simple.
Gradually…
Lu Ming could comprehend the lines of this card…
With the knowledge that he inherited on the Swordplay, he managed to understand the lines that he could not understand previously…
It took him two days.
Lu Ming finally created the card!
A four-star Swordsman Card.
Done!
“Finally… I’ve finally created it.”
Lu Ming was overjoyed.
Although he was not very interested in this card, he had a deeper understanding of the Lunar Shadow legacy and card creating techniques through this process.
The card creating process of this card was like a tutorial.
He was able to gradually understand…
Swordsman…
The creation of cards…
With the creation of this card, everything was integrated together.
Lu Ming was certain that he might be the only Card Creator in this world that had the deepest understanding of the sword.
However…
The cultivation speed was average.
Lu Ming sighed. The cultivation speed of this card was not as high as the “Meltdown Card”.
There was no way that he could use it as a Cultivation Card. Perhaps he could use it as his trump card? He must test out this kind of explosive trump card.
Think about it.
What would happen if one killed oneself using this trump card in a fight…
Wouldn’t it be funny?
Therefore, at the very least he had to test its effectiveness!
However…
How should he test it?
Lu Ming felt a little worried.
Should he use it directly?
Although theoretically, w.a.n.g Tianjun must have chosen something that was applicable for his son, he did not dare to try it out himself. What if there was an accident and he died?
It was too scary!
That was a four-star Sword Aura!
Well…
Should he ask Gao Xiaoqing to try it?
She should be very good at this!
However, at the thought of Gao Tianlang who guarded his sister closely, Lu Ming shook his head and gave up this notion. The guy might beat him to death.
Or perhaps…
Wait a minute.
Lu Ming’s eyes swirled and he had an idea.
Why would someone spurt blood?
That was simple!
The body could not withstand it.
However, the body would not be injured. This was because in essence, the Sword Aura would integrate with the person and serve as protection, therefore one would not die…
One would at most be seriously injured. If that was the case…
After a long time…
Lu Ming created the card.
Swoos.h.!.+
He waved his hands and a Burial Mound Warrior appeared.
That was right.
This was Lu Ming’s idea.
Since it might not be good to test it out on human beings, it should not be a problem with the Burial Mound Warrior. As a three-star energy peak and a pure energy body, it should be able to withstand it!
Well…
“Here, take it.”
Lu Ming handed the card to him.
The Burial Mound Warrior took the card.
Lu Ming darted to the side.
Buzz—
The card was activated.
A Sword Aura landed onto the Burial Mound Warrior.
Bang!
A horrifying aura vibrated in the air.
The energy level of the three-star peak Burial Mound Warrior kept increasing madly after the Sword Aura entered its body, in the end…
It had broken through to a four-star!
Yes.
A four-star Burial Mound Warrior!
Shus.h.!.+
Shus.h.!.+
The Burial Mound Warrior danced about, the horrifying Sword Aura moving about in its body. There was no need to come in contact and one could tell the immense power of the Burial Mound Warrior!
It was just that…
Pfft!
Pfft!
There was a large hollow in the Burial Mound Warrior’s body.
Pfft!
It constantly spewed translucent green liquid from its body, until the amount of liquid reduced gradually. The Burial Mound Warrior who was originally able to last for ten minutes died after thirty seconds!
Lu Ming was speechless.
Oh.
It turned out that the Burial Mound Warrior would spew blood as well…
And it was green in color!
It was translucent as well!
However…
A thirty-second four-star?
This was a huge improvement for the Burial Mound Warrior! Compared to ordinary human beings, it was more effective and there was no need to be concerned about the side effects!
If he laminated the layers…
“I’ll give it a try.”
Lu Ming’s interest was piqued.
Very soon…
A Burial Mound Warrior + Sword Plunge lamination was completed.
Shus.h.!.+
Lu Ming summoned it.
Buzz—
Two energy forces vibrated and a Burial Mound Warrior appeared. It spewed green liquid and looked terrifying. It waved about menacingly before it disappeared on the spot.
A four-star beginner!
The lamination was effective!
Not bad!
Lu Ming felt very satisfied.
This could be one of his powerful cards in the future!
However…
He was curious.
When he tested it, this was what happened to a three-star peak Burial Mound Warrior. How did w.a.n.g Tianjun manage to cultivate?
…
At this very moment…
In a certain city.
w.a.n.g Tianjun glanced at his son with a serious look. “Do you still remember the secret of success that I imparted to you back then?”
“Yes,” w.a.n.g Xuan said in a deep voice.
“Very good.”
w.a.n.g Tianjun nodded slightly. “Then, let’s start!”
“Okay.”
w.a.n.g Xuan nodded.
Bang!
The Sword Aura erupted.
“Sword Plunge!”
w.a.n.g Xuan yelled.
Right then, a terrifying Sword Aura dropped from the sky and fell at an even faster speed, landing into w.a.n.g Xuan’s body, causing severe impact!
Pfft!
He spat a mouthful of fresh blood.
w.a.n.g Xuan’s internal organs began to spew blood!
Pfft!
Pfft!
w.a.n.g Xuan was covered with blood.
However…
While he was in severe pain, w.a.n.g Xuan could clearly feel that all the energy inside his body was burning. The Sword Aura in his body made him stronger and stronger!
Yes.
He was in the process of becoming stronger!
The wonders of the Sword Plunge was enough to increase his energy level!
However…
Not only that.
This was not the only effect that w.a.n.g Xuan felt. With the bone piercing pain, he felt as if his blood was boiling…
A strange feeling of numbness and tenderness exploded inside his body.
Bang!
w.a.n.g Xuan roared and a sword was sent flying to the front.
In front of them…
The panel that was used for testing showed a shocking figure—five-star beginner!
w.a.n.g Tianjun suddenly stood up.
This was…
Great!
Very well!
w.a.n.g Tianjun was elated.
Hahaha, he was indeed w.a.n.g Tianjun’s son! He had just become a four-star, but he already had the power of a five-star beginner! This was the secret behind his legacy Swordplay!
No one knew that this Swordplay required the integration of blood!
To other people, Sword Plunge might be an ordinary Swordplay, but when it was integrated with the blood, it would become an advanced Swordplay, or even display the power of a surmounting Swordplay!
This…
This was the real legacy!
This was the real surmounting Swordplay!
“I managed to learn it!”
w.a.n.g Xuan was agitated.
He spent three days working hard and though he was still not as familiar, he had finally comprehended the secret behind the sword.
“Haha, son, take a good look.”
w.a.n.g Tianjun demonstrated the power of the style to his son.
Bang!
The Sword Aura entered him.
His entire body was spewing blood.
w.a.n.g Tianjun executed the Swordplay and was very formidable.
However…
While the two of them were cultivating, no one noticed that Madam w.a.n.g was watching them at the door, looking upset as the father and son laughed boisterously while spewing blood.
Xuan-er had been led astray by his father.
He was done for!
What did she see in him back then?
Old Zhang was so much better!
She remembered that back then she was still a student… when she was in danger, a man was willing to shed blood for her. She was touched by his actions and was willing to marry him…
He was covered in fresh blood in that fight and he looked manly and suave!
The fresh blood…
It was so charming…
Of course.
She found out later that even if she was not around, he would still spurt blood…
He would spew blood from his body!
He was only short of installing a nozzle on his body!
Who was the woman here?
It seemed that he lost more blood than her every month.
As for being manly… hehe, so much for the whips and candles that he bought on the Internet to introduce pleasure. She did not expect that he would lead Xuan-er astray!
Legacy?
Swordplay?!
What the h.e.l.l was this self-torture Swordplay?
Madam w.a.n.g was furious and the consequences were dire.
She stared coldly at the father and son who were playing the game of spewing blood until one of them noticed her presence and stopped in horror.
The atmosphere turned awkward.
“Continue with your cultivation. Why don’t you continue?”
Madam w.a.n.g said in a gentle voice.
“M-my wife.”
w.a.n.g Tianjun felt a little guilty.
“It’s alright. Continue with the cultivation.”
Madam w.a.n.g smiled faintly.
Upon finis.h.i.+ng her words…
She turned to leave and made a phone call to Old Zhang. “Is this Old Zhang? Are you free tonight?”
w.a.n.g Tianjun felt an ache in his heart.
“Dear wife, I am wrong. Ah… Why don’t you beat me up? You can whip me if you like.”
…
At this very moment…
Qing Ming City.
Lu Ming was still working on the card.
Xiaobai stared at it for a long time before recognizing that it was the first four-star Swordsman Card that her master gave her. He had succeeded in creating it!
Although she had not seen it before…
“Master, master, have you created it?”
Xiaobai was thrilled.
This was their first Swordsman Card.
Wow.
This was a four-star Swordsman Card!
Her master was very smart!
“Yes.”
Lu Ming nodded slightly.
“Can you teach me?”
Xiaobai pinched the corner of her s.h.i.+rt nervously.
Lu Ming was speechless.
He looked at the Burial Mound Warrior that was still spewing blood and glanced at the adorable Xiaobai. He had no idea how he should reply to her.
Should she learn it?
This skill was too much of a self-torture!
If she did not learn it…
They had had this card with them for a long time. They were waiting for this moment.
“Be good.
I will teach you something else.”
Lu Ming rubbed her head. “This is not the only Swordplay that I know of. I will draw another one for you later.”
“But this is the first Swordsman Card that you gave me…”
Xiaobai was still thinking about it.
“Did you see the scene just now?”
Lu Ming pointed to the Burial Mound Warrior that spewed green liquid. “Can you withstand that?”
“I…”
Xiaobai thought about it. “I don’t think I will spew green liquid.”
“Of course not. That is blood.”
Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.
“Well…
If it’s blood, then it is fine.”
Xiaobai remembered what her father told her as well as the things that happened when she was a child, as she said seriously, “It’s alright, I have a lot of blood.”
Lu Ming stared at Xiaobai with a look of surprise. “Are you having…?”
Xiaobai was confused. “What do you mean? No?”
Lu Ming was deep in thoughts.
If not, why did the child say that she had lots of blood?
Xiaobai was doubtful.
However, she was a young girl who had scored well for her basic education. She understood the implied meaning of Lu Ming’s words right then and she blushed in embarra.s.sment.
“Master!!!”
Xiaobai widened her eyes.
He was too mean!
Why would her master be thinking about all this indecent stuff…
Snort!
He must have been led astray at the Lunar Shadow legacy!
Those bad guys!
