Chapter 941: A Glimpse of Sword Shadow
as already begun. The upper council has decided to hold a large meeting immediately to discuss our offensive strategies and matters concerning the end of the Golden Age. Big Thighs, will you and Heave...The cards materialized, etched upon bamboo slips. Craggy ancient script, like a legion of sharp swords, sliced at Lu Cheng's meager mental fortitude.
Ancient Chinese characters arranged one by one.
Lu Cheng instantly understood.
"You new gods, bullying my juniors is too much!"
Self-defense card, like a blue dress, even the pipa can't light it up. Moreover, Lu Cheng believed that even if it was lit, it probably wouldn't be of any use!
The Yellow Emperor.
According to the Records of the Grand Historian: "The Yellow Emperor was the son of Shaodian, whose surname was Gongsun and whose given name was Xuanyuan."
The first emperor of the Five Emperors in ancient times!
Lu Cheng had seen documents before Qin Shi Huang burned them in Xianyang Palace.
Before the Treaty Era.
The Oriental table map has the effect of Five Emperors cards.
but was vague.
That era has passed, but the derivative cards of the sealed cards still retain such powerful spiritual energy!
It is still extremely powerful.
Li Cheng knows.
Ancient cards lack the diverse and flashy skills of modern ones. For example, [Yaoji] had to be modified several times after acquisition before reaching its current form.
But.
The Ancient Emperors and Gods are known for their immense power, capable of feats like throwing bricks with incredible force!
Even at full strength, there's no use against the power of this card's backlash.
"
Imprisoning Yao Ji, causing her to lose all beauty, I now break your shrine for self-reflection. Do you confess your crimes!"
"
"It's unfair!!" Lu Cheng didn't even have time to argue. The soul of the card master, Dan Yuan Shen, was about to be dissolved.
Yo, girl! Say something!
"Uncle, please don't!"
In a moment of crisis, urgent and frantic voices rose.
Li Cheng knew he was saved.
I guess this girl finally woke up!
"Lu Cheng. Lu Cheng has never bullied me!"
Yao Ji had just woken up and immediately understood the situation. She hurriedly stopped him.
"Since it was wartime, Lu Cheng took in my sisters and me. To save our lives from hardship, I did everything I willingly helped him with!!!"
Your card [Yao Ji] awakens. Because of its "Kindness" keyword, your actions in Luoyang have moved her.
Feeling level breakthrough, current favorability 93.
Your card 【Yao Ji】 is resisting 【Aegean Sea】 and is in a critically wounded state. The current card efficiency is -90%. Unlock the background "Water Management lv1" and obtain a new skill slot.
"Yao, if that's truly the case, are you still being coerced by an evil spirit Let me block its mental influence and I'll ask you again to get to the bottom of this."
Silence followed.
Lu Cheng's mental backlash pressure instantly eased. Before he could feel joy, he suddenly lost contact with [Yao Ji]'s spiritual power.
His face turned pale.
Damn!
Grandfather, return my girl to me!!!
There are many aftereffects of mental exhaustion, the most common being dizziness.
After being struck back, Lu Cheng felt dizzy and lightheaded.
After a while, I felt better.
Yaoji has disappeared, and I'm frantic with worry.
Without her, the whole family lost power.
>Most importantly, we've fought together for so many years, pouring our emotions and effort into it. They are one of the most crucial partners in the deck.
How can something be missing
If she were really taken, I would do anything to bring her back!
No matter how bad the current state is.
However, even so, Lu Cheng remained relatively calm.
Close your eyes and focus your spirit
"Sword Master."
"Sword Master"
The voice grew more urgent.
Lu Cheng suddenly opened his eyes!
The view of the Xianyang Inn is gone, replaced by a raging river and in my hand, an ancient-looking sword!
"Yao Ji"
It was me. I told my uncle the whole story, he won't blame you, though he is still angry that you didn't take good care of me.
">.
Lucas remained silent.
To say that you have raised your cards well
Back then, there was nothing to eat or use. How could people survive
Just existing is already giving it my all.
Now, including myself, everyone is wounded all over.
"The Sword Master need not worry, I understand you."
"No." Lu Cheng shook his head. "As for the old man, I'll explain it to him myself. Or, he can beat me up. I won't fight back."
"Uncle is gone now. With the current decline of heaven's way and lack of environment, even his consciousness can't last long." Yao Ji explained.
Lu Cheng thought for a moment.
Indeed, there is currently no tabletop environment where the Five Emperors cards exist.
The Way of Heaven, the natural order of heaven and earth.
The package currently defines the strongest rules of the game, determining card appearance, card values, skill rules, and everything else.
It is the same as "Destiny" in other expansion packs.
This can be considered the most basic environment card.
Before the treaty era, all such regulations were enacted to control the scale of warfare and restore the ecosystem.
An agreement has been reached, significantly reducing the number and scope of laws across all tribes.
According to Lu Cheng, only the "most useless" old thing was left!
However, the current Datang expansion pack is really not as good as Grandpa's.
The doorman was straightforward when it came to taking money, but he also genuinely gave people what they deserved.
The Tang expansion pack is like a huge piece of DLC, separated from the Celestial Path.
It seems like I'm pretty broke right now.
Both the full expansion missions, Taoyuan Star and Xi Xing, don't offer any substantial rewards.
I wonder how the old thing is doing.
During the Heavenly Gate's closure, the Tang Dynasty expansion pack must grow up!
"Well, what's this" Lu Cheng shuffled the cards.
Yaoji's spirit, who had been residing within the Xianjian embryo, is now back in the deck. Surprisingly, her spirit has acquired a new sword.
"Oh! Right." Yaomei seemed to remember something: “My uncle said that although the place he arranged for me is decent, the killing intent was too heavy, unsuitable for me. Using my last bit of spirit, I summoned the sword shadow and asked it to shelter me. Of course, my uncle's wisp of spiritual power was only enough to solidify the sword shadow.”
"Oh." Lu Cheng nodded.
The Yellow Emperor, revered as the first of the Five Emperors, .
You're not very discerning, are you
Perhaps the old man is just too old.
You have to accept new things!
Sword of the Immortal, innate spiritual treasure.
The Zhuxian Array of the Intercepting School.
Don't be fooled by its current state, it's a real force to be reckoned with!
It's not an injustice for Yao Ji's spirit to be housed here.
But I also understand him.
I feel like my niece is being wronged, so I want to give her something.
Is there really no way to make the Xianjian Tainiu (a sword from a game/novel, need more context) cool
Let me know if you'd like me to clarify anything about the translation!
However, what the Yellow Emperor said was not wrong.
The Xianjian sword is indeed incompatible with Yaoji's ability, and cultivation might harm her.
Lu Cheng originally planned to exchange it for her if he had money. Let's see what Huangdi gave her first.
"Identify the card!"
(The Identification Card [ Sword Shadow] failed!)
Huh
Lu Cheng was surprised.
Card grading is based on the card master's experience and expansions. The card master himself has personally experienced the event of Emperor Qin burning books, visited Zhou Tianzi's imperial library, and rebuilt the Jixia Academy.
...actually doesn't know.
Lu Cheng once again flipped through the ancient sword.
As it is a phantom blade, it feels like nothing in one's hand.
There is no inscription or carving on the top, nothing at all, it's extremely ordinary.
Oh.
It's just a little thought from an old man.
Yao Ji is injured now and needs to repair her Ling Shu immediately. It's not suitable for her to stay in a killing weapon anymore.
She's comfortable wherever she lives.
"Thank you, Old Master, for the gift of the sword! Ah, right, Ling Shu. Yao Meizi, can you learn it"
"Of course, as long as the Sword Master agrees."
