Chapter 529: The Beginning of the Story
.... A lion wouldn't be foolish enough to shed its blood for a mere god card." The old man turned, scrutinizing the scroll carefully.And the man behind him didn't react, watching the old man's back. B...Such swordsmanship is something a Star Sword Saint could never understand.
On the night of a full moon, a sword comes from the west, and celestial immortals fly down from the heavens.
What kind of spirit is this
For a moment, Star Sword Saint felt that besides his sword, everything else in the world no longer mattered.
By the time he comes to his senses.
One person, one city, one sword, the cold light has reached his side.
For some reason, he just had a feeling.
You will be cut into seven pieces!
He fought countless duels throughout his life, he could even smell the metallic tang of blood on his opponent's sword.
If it weren't for the age of divine cards having passed, Starblade Saint would even believe her sword was smeared with the blood of gods.
What a strong opponent!
What a strong sword fighting atmosphere.
Is this the top of Hulao Pass
"[Forward!]" Xingjian Saint took a step forward, and the black stone ground of Youdu Mountain cracked where he stood, for ten meters in every direction.
Immediately, he unsheathed his sword and shouted: "【Slash!】!"
For a moment, the clash of metal rang out!
Rocks tumbled down, and the North Sea roared.
The Star Sword Saint was astonished.
A one-sword strike from a Grade 1 Gold tier expert, no doubt about it.
But his own 【Slash】 and 【Step Forward Slash】 could barely hold him back.
Is this boss so strong
Although he's not as strong as he used to be, don't think just any card master can break through his [Slash!] [Forward Slash] in the winter month.
This host, at the very least, is a gold 2 rank. So a fully specced gold 1 star is no joke.
Most importantly, his sword was a spirit card that shattered upon impact.
What a grand entrance with a single sword!
Qingyi drew her sword in a flash, cutting through Lu Cheng's sword formation and aiming at the [Star Trajectory].
Took a deep breath.
This masked man is no match for the combat strength of that rigid teacher from Zhongdu Academy from just a few days ago.
You're right, it's a tough one.
On the surface, it appears to be a golden star, but without going all out, it would likely be difficult to defeat.
He copied the sword intent of Ye Gucheng, also used a [Taiyin Star Power] card, and added Qingyi's suffix.
Such a sword strike was blocked by the opponent's 【Step Forward Slash】.
Who did you provoke Could it be that you're envious of my recent gains
Still testing the waters, the returns aren't huge. They're not really that significant, you know
But Lu Cheng didn't have time to think about that.
The durability of Yūdō Shān - Hǔ Lǎo Guān has begun to become unstable.
Two Gold Card Masters' duel is beyond what the Purple Realm Card can contain. However, once they withdraw from the Dueling Domain, the Tang sisters at the shop might be affected by the sword energy, which would have disastrous consequences!
If you can't even protect your own staff when something happens, what's the point of having a fighting arena
Lu Cheng wasn't planning to talk about martial ethics; he wasn't a pure sword cultivator after all.
He had already made his decision, summoning a barrage of fire. He immediately called out for "[The Sea God's Needle]!"
However, the masked man waved his hand and retrieved the cards back into his deck.
"Host, there's no need to continue. This old man concedes defeat. Though I could have parried that attack, my spirit card has been dispersed. Under the full moon, with two swords in a city, atop a strategic peak... what a truly excellent sword fighting atmosphere. Host, you are well-hidden indeed! With such a good place, why didn't you use it earlier"
Lu Cheng remained silent, and did not let down his guard.
"Well, I'm an examiner from the Competition Association. Here's my certification. I'm here to test your ability to handle unexpected situations. Seems like things are getting more interesting than expected."
After verifying his identity, Lu Cheng let out a long sigh of relief.
Luckily, the other party is a real reviewer.
He is truly fearless.
Because above the winter clouds, the 【Mechanism Cloud Platform】 has already been set up on the back fin of Longkun, ready to stand by and replace the current cannon barrel at any time.
It's better to be prepared than sorry.
If normal attacks don't work, then use 【"Ding Hai Shen Zhen" (Damaged Myth Core 7%)】 【Scorpion Tail Needle - Reverse Horse Poison Stake】 to lock him.
This is the real ultimate move, even an overlord-level card master would have to think twice before taking it head-on.
But people around are afraid.
As often written in books, when one person achieves enlightenment, their family and friends also benefit. Just by being given some heavenly treasures or legendary cards, those around them can also soar to success.
But unfortunately, this is impossible.
Lu Cheng wanted to use [Yiqidan] to pay the Tang sisters' prize money, but they couldn't use it.
It's not that they lack intelligence.
It's truly remarkable. Lu Cheng only reached this level after years of life-or-death combat in the Millennial War against the Moon. The young lion kings, I wonder how many cards they consumed and how many centuries they froze over.
Rick, even as a bystander, has trained in the [Great Cemetery] for an unknown amount of time.
This is reality.
No one can achieve success overnight. All you can do is wait for opportunities and gradually make progress.
Domain card unlocked.
The two sat back down at the table. If it weren't for the dummies around them swaying erratically in the wake of the qi blade, one would think nothing had happened at all.
"Grandpa, your test was frightening," Lu Cheng said.
It's not that I think there's anything wrong.
To be honest, if Lu Cheng were the assessor, he'd probably do the same.
"Come now, do you think the host could be intimidated by an old man like me" Xing Jian Sheng raised his teacup and took a sip. "We are all sword practitioners. The host's profound sword spirit is truly impressive."
Lu Cheng smiled and didn't answer. Isn't that plagiarism anyway
It's amazing how they managed to recreate the scene of a sword fight on top of the Forbidden City! This Lu Cheng is really something, he even sells 2-star gold energy cards for this number.
And he really wanted to correct that, he wasn't a swordsman, at best he was a swordswoman's enthusiast.
"By the way, here is an [Element Stone], a new arrival from the Southern Mines this month. The quality is exceptional. It will replenish the Supply Depot master and allow him to take a break. Even being active all day can be tiring for old men." The grandfather took out a golden energy card.
"Farewell, old man," Lu Cheng hurriedly waved his hand. "Let's settle this properly. The rules state that the energy consumption generated during the assessment is borne by the douji field applying for the assessment. Official business is one thing, and tea money, old man, you just settle that."
"Haha." Xingjian Sheng seemed in a good mood today after witnessing the marvelous display of swordsmanship. "The grading is fine, but Headmaster, aren't you interested in participating in the Golden Tournament"
"Yes, the place is small, but Lu Cheng still wants to take a sip of soup," Lu Cheng said truthfully.
The Star Sword Saint's expression grew serious.
Let me give you a heads-up, you'd better not participate this time, we can't even control the situation domestically.
"Is it because of the worsening card masters and card game participants Actually, it doesn't matter, they'll come anyway. It's actually a good thing that they show up openly."
"Then, do you know what kind of situation you're facing"
"Of course, as a venue, we naturally need to make the background perfect. The council is responsible for providing us with money and investment, and our domestic fighting arenas will unite to restore the entire Greek army's background. We don't care about the details of the match, whether it's any style, we only need to ensure that in the end, the Greek army uses tactics to conquer Troy, that's the big background, right"
"That's right, but do you know They will build a... corrupted Troy. They call it 'holy,' and then the Fallen God Legion, the monstrous beasts, this will be the true battlefield of death. Can you handle it"
I don't know, but I'll try my best.
Lu Cheng thought about it.
With your own ability, you can at least go in and have a bowl of soup.
Mainly, Lu Cheng was looking at his black card.
This master, shall we cooperate
If he doesn't cooperate, Lu Cheng will only have to go it alone and tell stories inside. It's just that the scale might be average than a parallel world, sooner or later.There's nothing Lu Cheng can do about this whole situation. He can't possibly tell the Death King, "Hey dude, making this thing will get you killed, so don't!"I...
