Chapter 175: Can I Look At Your Body?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In Qing Ming City.
At the shop.
Lu Ming and his disciple were looking at today’s news.
Well…
It was regarding the beasts tide. “Recently, the mysterious Swordsman ‘Flash’ passed by and the beasts tide came to a perfect end…”
“It is such a terrible name.”
Xiaobai wrinkled her nose.
Flash!
It was not domineering at all!
“What do you think it should be called?”
Lu Ming felt amused.
“Well… I have no idea. But it must be as cool as Master’s name.”
Xiaobai was serious.
“Haha.”
Lu Ming rubbed Xiaobai’s little head.
Initially, he thought he had to hide outside for a few days. He did not expect it to end so soon. The five-star beast had covered up everything.
However…
There were things that had to be followed up.
For example—
Fan Ze!
Lu Ming did not forget that the guy tried to silence him in the cave. Besides, he knew about the five-star beast as well. He had to be mindful.
Oo…
Lu Ming thought about it and decided to make a phone call to Zhang Yang.
“President. There’s something I need to say.”
Lu Ming went straight to the point. “When I was in the suburbs, I saw a group of mysterious people in black. All of them were powerful four-star cultivators. They were behaving sneakily. I did not dare to go near them. But I suspect that they planned the beasts tide!”
Zhang Yang’s heart jumped.
Mysterious people!
Beasts tide!
All of them were four-star!
“Are you sure?”
Zhang Yang sounded solemn.
If someone was planning it secretly, this matter was serious.
“Yes.”
Lu Ming did not hesitate at all.
Whatever their purpose was, anyway, they seemed to be up to no good! Therefore he had no qualm about putting all the blame on them!
“Understood.”
Zhang Yang ended the call.
They were people who were capable of triggering the beasts tide.
It was scary to think about it.
This matter was of the utmost importance and he had to deal with it.
Hence…
The focus of the investigation in Qing Ming City turned to this group of mysterious people in black and they discovered something fishy and caught several groups of people in black who were up to something…
“The clues were very crucial.”
Zhang Yang praised him. “I will give you the reward later.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
There were indeed people in black.
Fine.
No matter what happened next time, he would put the blame on them!
Well…
As for Fan Ze…
Lu Ming was not certain if he was alive or not.
When the beast returned to look for him, there was a strong stench of blood as well as the auras of the men in black on its body. Apparently, there was a massacre!
Was Fan Ze still alive?
He had no idea!
However…
If he was dead, then the ore vein…
Shush!
Lu Ming made a phone call without any hesitation.
“Lu Ming?”
Fan Ze’s calm voice could be heard.
“You’re still alive!”
Lu Ming felt a little regretful.
This guy was very resilient.
“Were you hoping that I was dead?”
Fan Ze sounded angry.
Why was this bastard still alive?
“Of course not.”
Lu Ming shook his head, as he said seriously, “I am just feeling emotional. After all, you and the several veterans lured the terrifying beast away. I thought that something had happened to you…”
Oh.
The beast chased him after they left?
Well…
After all, Lu Ming was just a passer-by.
Given the beast’s intelligence, it should hate the group to the core. It would not pay attention to Lu Ming at all.
Snort!
This guy was really lucky!
At the thought of this, Fan Ze shook his head. He had suffered huge losses this time!
“Elder?”
Lu Ming asked cautiously. “I wanted to ask you about the restrictions…”
“Another time.”
Fan Ze thought for a while. “I’ll contact you when the time comes.”
“Okay.”
Lu Ming seemed to heave a sigh of relief.
“Humph!”
Fan Ze snorted and ended the call.
This guy was lucky to survive that situation!
And at this time, he saw the news on the Internet that was pushed to his device. There was an uproar about the mysterious Swordsman and the beast tide!
The five-star beast really went to attack the city!
Idiot!
Did it think that it was that simple?
It deserved to die!
However, the mysterious Swordsman…
He thought for a while and he felt terrified. The person must be very powerful to kill the five-star beast instantly in one strike!
Thankfully, they did not run across the person.
Fan Ze thought about it and decided to keep a low-profile for the time being.
Well…
He would use the time to cultivate.
However…
He did not know that Lu Ming whom he named as ‘the guy’ was pondering whether to push the blame to him and to take the ore vein for himself…
“Forget it.”
Lu Ming thought for a long time and shook his head with some regrets.
There was no need for him to do it for the time being.
First of all, he had created a large number of Energy Cards at Fan Ze’s place. It was enough to last him for a period of time. Besides, he had helped defeat the five-star beast!
Zhang Yang had ordered people to carry the beast away and was handling the matter now. He believed he would give him a satisfactory answer soon!
Resources…
Accumulate points…
There would probably be a lot of them!
Since Lu Ming was not short of resources, there was no need to take the risk.
Besides…
From what happened with the five-star beast, he could tell that Fan Ze had a lot of trump cards. After all, he had an ore vein and he had more resources than normal cultivators!
If he was too difficult on him, it would be too risky. He would bid his time.
Lu Ming was very aware of his own capability, cultivators who had weaker physical fitness… would be killed instantly!
If there was a chance, it would be easy to kill a row of them instantly.
However, for cultivators who were physically fit, Moonblade was unable to kill them instantly and that might be troublesome. Fan Ze belonged to this type of cultivator.
What he had to do now was to increase his capability. He would leave the matter about the ore vein to the future.
As for his capability…
Lu Ming sensed his Original Card, it only had three thousand two hundred points.
Yes.
After a period of hard work and pulling all-nighter, Lu Ming’s energy level was only increased by two hundred points! It was many times slower than before!
Lu Ming understood right away.
When energy tempering reached the ultimate level, his cultivation speed would be slowed down by ten!
Of course.
The advantage was that as long as the energy reached ten thousand points, he would reach three-star peak directly. In a sense, this was a big blessing, but his energy level right now…
He felt upset looking at it.
What should he do if he was surpassed by the Original Card?
“Xiaobai. What is your energy level?”
Lu Ming suddenly asked.
“Oh, I have no idea.”
Xiaobai was dazed.
She had not taken back her Original Card for a few days.
“Wait, I’ll go and check.”
Xiaobai went to the corner to look for her Original Card.
Lu Ming was speechless.
He was envious of her.
Look, she had to go looking for her Original Card!
“Two thousand five hundred points.”
Xiaobai found the Original Card and sensed it.
“Two thousand five hundred…”
Lu Ming stared at the sky.
Therefore…
After working hard these days at cultivation, his energy level only increased by two hundred points, while Xiaobai’s Original Card that was allowed to cultivate by itself had increased by five hundred points!
Life was hard.
Oo…
The Original Card…
Cultivation…
Lu Ming thought about it, should he ask Brother Cat for help?
Hence…
Lu Ming went into his Sea of Consciousness.
“Brother Cat. Can you help the Original Card to cultivate?”
Lu Ming was full of anticipation.
The black cat looked blankly at him.
“Cultivation. I want to cultivate like Xiaobai’s Original Card.
Since you are so formidable, why don’t you absorb energy through the Original Card?”
Lu Ming made a suggestion.
The black cat was recovering his energy within his body.
If the black cat restored its energy through the Original Card, would it be beneficial to the Original Card? In a sense, it was regarded as cultivation as well.
If the effect was good, he could catch some other spirit bodies for recovery… For example, foxes, old men, little female cats. All of them could provide recovery services…
He would take ten percent of the energy.
It was perfect!
Look, this was being paid commission!
That would be cool!
That would be a first!
However…
Unfortunately…
The black cat stared at Lu Ming like he was a fool and his cultivation plan was not accepted.
He had no other choice.
The black cat could cultivate by itself. There was no need to do so through the Original Card and to pay a commission to Lu Ming. It must be foolish to go through the Original Card!
Alright.
Lu Ming gave a deep sigh.
He felt that the black cat was not scientific at all. It was in the Sea of Consciousness yet it could continue to absorb the energy. All the energy would pass through the body.
For example—
The energy derived from the thunderbolt last time!
Therefore…
Lu Ming always felt that the body of the black cat must be unusual.
Even without any special external force, the body of the black cat would be able to recover slowly, or to absorb energy in the real world while it was in the Sea of Consciousness…
It was very mysterious and magical.
It seemed to be a surreal reality…
Wait a minute.
Could the body of the black cat be related to condensation?
Lu Ming’s heart jumped a beat.
This was the big-shot that transmigrated to the illusion and the reality!
If there was a chance, he must do research on it…
Lu Ming swept his gaze over the black cat. “Brother Cat, can I look at your body…”
Bam!
A black shadow loomed and he was sent flying in the air, plastered onto the wall.
Lu Ming was speechless.
It was so stingy!
It was not a young lady!
What was wrong with looking at its body?!
He wanted to know if it had any special abilities!
Shush!
His consciousness dissipated.
Back to reality.
Since he could not get in through the back door with the help of the Brother Cat, Lu Ming could only work hard. The card that he had been studying recently was at its final stage!
Four-star Summon series—Moonlight Card!
Research progress 90%!
“The cultivation speed of this card should be quite fast…”
Lu Ming was full of anticipation.
It was impossible to test.
Even if he created this card, he would not test it.
He had no other choice.
Previously, when he tested the stability of the Original Card, it resulted in a shocking incident where people thought that the Card Creators Association was being attacked. Later, he tested an Escape Card, and it resulted in a huge disaster where people thought that Qing Ming City was attacked by a beasts tide… God knew what would happen if he tested the Moonlight Card!
Therefore…
Even if he created this card, it would be used as a Cultivation Card!
“Let’s begin.”
Lu Ming took a deep breath and began the final phase of his study.
The last 10% of the research process was very tough. There was a lot of information that he could not find. Lu Ming could only seek help from the association. Right now, nobody would reject him.
After all, Lu Ming had saved everybody in the beasts’ tide battle.
Hence…
Lu Ming was very happy to be able to talk to the elders regarding his doubts over the night.
Since it touched on a lot of disciplines, therefore, he consulted almost every four-star elder on the related knowledge…
The next day.
The Card Creators Association announced that it would close for one day.
This was the first time since the Card Creators Association in Qing Ming City was established decades ago that it was closed…
The novices that went to the association to do testing were stunned. They did not know that the Card Creators Association would be closed.
In the association.
Zhang Yang and the rest of them were exhausted and were sleeping in the association.
They were pure auxiliary vocations. Their physical fitness was not good… They stayed up through the night when there was the beasts’ tide and now they had to stay up through the night again. They could not take it anymore.
However, Lu Ming…
He was full of energy!
He had a smile on his face. He had all his questions about the Moonlight Card answered. If everything went smoothly, he would be able to create the card today!
It was great!
Although President Zhang Yang was annoying at times, he had a solid foundation on card creation. The other vice presidents were very powerful as well, except that they were physically weak.
…
Very soon…
Lu Ming had reached his house.
The first thing he did was to create the Moonlight Card!
Shush!
Shush!
His Card Creating Pen gradually penned.
The energy flowed.
He clearly felt that the energy in the card had finally become a self-cycle. The energy in his hands went through the card and back to itself.
The cultivation efficiency was three times higher than the previous cards!
Of course.
The consumption of resources had increased three times as well!
This did not matter to Lu Ming.
It was very powerful!
Lu Ming was very satisfied.
In this case, his daily cultivation efficiency would improve again. It would be faster than the cultivation of the Original Card… Wait a minute, why was he comparing with it?!
Lu Ming suddenly felt sorry for himself.
He was reduced to the state that he would compare his cultivation speed to that of the Original Card…
“What does this mean?”
Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.
He shook his head.
Very soon…
He created the Moonlight Card.
Buzz—
The card surface changed.
Lu Ming had a brand new card in his hands.
It was beautiful.
It was poetic.
This card seemed to have a different style from the cards that he created so far. It was mysterious and beautiful.
“Not bad.”
Lu Ming nodded slightly and he sealed the card.
Should he test it?
No way!
After testing several other cards, he no longer believed that the lightning integration was able to create a normal card. If he continued to test it…
The entire Qing Ming City would be gone.
Forget it.
He should work hard on his cultivation.
Hence…
Lu Ming began to cultivate diligently.
This time, his goal was to reach ten thousand points as fast as possible and to become a real three-star and to break through to a four-star with Old Jiang!
Of course.
In the meantime…
He would fight to come in the top one hundred in the School Championship Competition.
