Divine Card Creator

Chapter 212: Floating on Air!

Qing Ming City.

At the police office.

“It didn’t move at all?”

“Yes.”

“It has never come out?”

“Yes.”

“What does this mean?”

The policemen were perplexed.

This enormous python spirit body killed people and dominated the building as soon as it appeared. It had conquered a huge area. Just as they were certain that this was an extremely fearsome and malicious spirit body and took numerous precautionary measures...

This python suddenly became low-key.

It lay low and did not appear again.

What did this mean?!

They could not figure it out.

Theoretically.

As long as they sealed off that area, the python would not pose any threat. When the reinforcements from other cities rushed here, they would exterminate it. That would do.

However...

How could that be possible?!

Groups of people were secretly entering the building, okay?

“How are those people?”

“I don’t know.”

“You don’t know?”

“Yes, they lost contact after getting into the building and their status is unknown...”

“How much longer will the reinforcements take to come?”

“They were paying close attention to this matter and said that they will come here to deal with this immediately as soon as they finished with their matters...”

“Immediately...”

Zhang Wei sighed.

There were different priorities even if this was a crisis.

To a certain extent, this was similar to emergency resuscitation at the hospital.

One needed to queue to see the doctor. However, if you dropped to the ground and spewed blood, the doctor would send you to the emergency operating theater for resuscitation at any point in time...

After all...

You might be sent to the morgue if there was any delay.

This was the situation at hand.

If the python conducted a massacre as soon as it appeared and thousands of people were dying in every minute, the higher-ups would probably drop everything and rush here...

Now.

Of course, they could only wait!

This was not because the higher-ups were lazy but because the other mission that had a higher priority than Qing Ming City could be something more dangerous and critical!

Those people might be fighting for their lives!

Police...

Especially in this era, a policeman’s job was never easy.

The fatality rate was extremely high!

It was just that...

Looking at the data report, Zhang Wei pondered for a moment and said suddenly, “Report to the chief and make the chief force them to put this as a priority. Get the higher-ups to send people here!”

The assistant’s heart shivered.

Force them to put this as a priority?

This kind of matter... If it was confirmed later on as something that did not need to be prioritized...

They would be blamed!

“That is not important.”

Zhang Wei’s expression grew solemn. “I have a very bad premonition just now... This python... is more horrifying that those spirit bodies that kill as soon as they appear...

Is it possible that...

It is already a mature spirit body...

It knows how to think, analyze, and weigh the pros and cons... It is even planning for itself and may also know the presence of the policemen. Therefore, it tries to maintain a low profile as much as possible...” Zhang Wei said in a low voice.

“I-I don’t think that’s possible?”

The assistant was trembling all over.

Spirit body...

Was a spirit body that intelligent?

“I hope so too.”

Zhang Wei looked at the data on the testing machine.

On it.

Countless red dots were flashing in the vicinity of the prohibited area.

They were cultivators.

However...

Once they stepped into the prohibited area, all the red dots disappeared and he could not see them anymore. Be it dead or alive, strong or weak. There was not the slightest bit of aura!

“Hopefully... My guess is wrong...”

...

Somewhere.

Xia Yu was glancing at the area which was full of sinister auras.

“Can I go now?”

He was slightly looking forward to it.

A python!

Five-star!

Was this the chance encounter that he had been waiting for?

The elderly man only smiled faintly.

“I still can’t?”

Xia Yu was lost.

“Haha.”

The elderly man only smiled faintly.

Child.

T-this... is only the beginning...

Xia Yu felt a little regretful.

Because... even he did not know what he was waiting for?

However...

He had to continue to wait!

At the very least, he knew why he appeared in this place and why he was waiting. Too many people’s hopes rested in him...

Swoosh!

He bent his bow and shot an arrow.

When he was waiting for the thing that he longed for...

He could only shoot arrows continuously!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Bursts of cold beams shot out.

Xia Yu’s shooting speed was getting faster and faster and the angle was becoming increasingly steep. Despite the absence of energy, he gave others the feeling that he was indestructible.

Until a particular moment.

When Xia Yu bent the bow and shot an arrow again.

Swoosh!

A surge of bright lights flashed.

At a distance away, a moving target was perforated on the spot. The most horrifying thing was that there was no trace of an arrow flying past it on the target...

This shot did not involve any arrows at all.

It was done with his thoughts.

“Not bad.”

The elderly man smiled faintly. He was very satisfied.

...

At this moment...

In the prohibited area.

The python’s sinister and cold aura was circulating.

It was very uncanny.

This python had appeared for a long time but it did not come out to attack other people. Instead, it lay low within the building in a strange and mysterious manner, waiting for the prey to come knocking on its door.

It was very low-key.

At this moment...

A figure was standing at the building opposite the prohibited area and looking afar.

It was snowing heavily.

The snow-white traces on his body increased.

Even so, he did not move.

“That place has the most sinister aura, right?” he asked in a deep voice.

Buzz—

The card beside him glimmered, seemingly responding to his question.

“Very good.”

His expression was austere. Just as he descended the stairs and headed to the prohibited area, he suddenly paused in his tracks and asked again, “Actually, I have another question...”

The card shone faintly.

“Tell me, the toilets in this area... will the sinister aura be doubled?” he asked in a deep voice.

Whoosh!

That card suddenly emitted a striking glow!

It was enraged.

It was true.

Could he not bring up the matter about the toilet?!

Damn!

This was too much!

Black cat!

This scoundrel!

Why didn’t you kill me then? You shoved me into the Original Card. Is it because Lu Ming kept looking for you in the Sea of Consciousness and you shunned him for being too annoying?! That was why you did that?

Somewhere.

A mysterious smile emerged on the corners of the sleeping black cat’s mouth.

Indeed...

It had not slept that well for a long time.

It was wonderful.

...

Shush!

Lu Ming put on his hat.

This hat was very interesting. To a certain extent, it could hide one’s identity. People who were weaker than him could not see through his looks at all.

Afterward...

Lu Ming stepped into the prohibited area.

“Eh?

Why did a two-star come?

It’s so strange.

Crap! Are cultivators in Qing Ming City that complacent?”

Everyone was stunned.

Lu Ming felt somewhat embarrassed.

Oh.

He recalled something. The cultivators who came to this prohibited area were mostly four-star and above. Therefore, to a certain extent, his hat was useless...

Alright.

Lu Ming sighed and removed his hat.

Right then...

Countless people swept their gazes across him.

There was no choice.

There were many cultivators who came here. Four-star, five-star and occasionally, some three-star peak who were courting death. However, there was not a single two-star cultivator!

Especially—

A two-star Card Creator!

Lu Ming’s strength was too eye-catching in this area!

He could not fail to be noticed.

However...

Many cultivators were people from nearby cities and some of them recognized Lu Ming. They glanced at each other and instantly understood.

Lu Ming...

According to rumors...

Lu Ming had killed five-star or even six-star spirit bodies that appeared at the school field of the crossroads college in seconds!

Of course.

According to sources, this was because of Lu Ming’s family trump card...

Judging from this, Lu Ming might possess terrifying things. Even though he was a two-star, ordinary folks could not afford to offend him.

“Let’s go!”

“Don’t bother about him!”

Some people hurried and left.

“Lu Ming is here... Damn! Hurry, look for the python!”

“R-right.”

“If Lu Ming kills it, it’ll be troublesome.”

Another group of people left.

The remaining people felt somewhat dumbstruck.

They did not recognize Lu Ming and had never heard of him. However, from the reactions of others, this guy seemed to be quite powerful?

Well...

He dared to come in that openly and arrogantly despite being a two-star...

There must be something fishy going on.

They could not afford to offend him! They could not afford to offend him!

In the end, the last group of people also left. Those people who were surrounding and staring at Lu Ming had disappeared without a trace.

Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.

It seemed that there was some benefit to having fame.

It was just nice. He did not want to get into a catfight with these people. They came here to catch the python whereas he came here to cultivate. He would just look for a place to skive... that would do...

Hence...

Lu Ming stepped into the prohibited area.

Buzz—

Buzz—

A strange and mysterious cold air pounced on him.

“O huo~!”

The Original Card shivered all over. It felt that it was floating on air.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Two beams of lights flashed across them.

Its originally normal cultivation speed suddenly increased rapidly and the energy began to increase exponentially. Lu Ming was elated. He found a room and hid in it.

“Will this place do?”

“Yes.”

The Original Card was very satisfied.

Since it became a card spirit, it never had such a cultivation speed.

He was overjoyed!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Its body glowed constantly.

At this moment...

Lu Ming glanced at his energy and it was increasing at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. After a few hours, it actually exceeded the seven-thousand-point mark!

Obviously, the cultivation speed was exceptional!

It was amazing!

However...

This situation did not last for long.

Very soon, the Original Card was dissatisfied. “I’ve already absorbed most of the aura in the surroundings. I’m becoming much slower now. We need to change to another place.”

“Sure.”

Lu Ming’s voice was low.

He also sensed that, although the Original Card’s cultivation speed was still faster than normal days, it was much weaker compared to the terrifying speed earlier!

This would not do.

He did not come to such a dangerous place for nothing.

Well...

Let’s to go upstairs!

Lu Ming could sense that aura becoming stronger as he ascended.

Very soon...

He was on the second floor.

Whoosh!

The cold and sinister aura appeared again.

“Yo!”

The Original Card felt great again.

Coming! Coming!

The exact same feeling!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The Original Card began to glow continuously.

Its cultivation speed increased exponentially once again!

Lu Ming was guarding the door and keeping vigilant of all the cultivators that passed by in the area. After all, this place was filled with four-star and five-star who were looking for a bargain.

...

The Original Card’s absorption was very successful.

Occasionally, someone would pass by but they did not approach them as they could recognize Lu Ming.

After all, Lu Ming did not do anything. People who could survive under such a cold and sinister aura were not willing to provoke anyone. Therefore, everyone was safe and sound...

If there was really a huge fight, he reckoned that it would be when the python appeared!

Therefore...

Lu Ming should be very safe.

According to his plan, when the Original Card cultivated to ten thousand points, he could leave.

It was perfect!

He looked at the speed of the Original Card now. Most likely, it would not take too long...

However...

Just at this moment, some people suddenly appeared from afar.

Someone is coming...

Lu Ming furrowed his brows and hid in the room again.

Outside the door.

He could hear their conversation clearly.

“Where is the python?”

“It should be on the top floor.”

“This cold and sinister aura is the strongest on the top floor...”

Groups of people walked past the vicinity.

They were following the aura and moving up constantly.

Their objective... was to look for the python!

“Be careful.

“This python should possess five-star ability... However, it has just been awakened. You can use a spirit body trap to lure it over. That will do.”

“Understood.”

Groups of cultivators were holding a round ball in their hands.

This thing...

was a spirit body trap.

Alright.

Since there were spirit bodies, naturally, there would be corresponding traps for them...

Furthermore, capturing spirit bodies was some people’s livelihood. They had spirit body testing machines, spirit body traps, spirit body storage machine and a series of equipment!

Amongst the cultivators that came here this time, there was also a group of such people.

They were called —

Spirit body hunters!

Of course.

Based on Lu Ming’s understanding, there was in fact another form of address for them — Pokémon Trainers. The items in their hands could be understood as Poké Balls!

To put it bluntly, the python matter was basically a group of cultivators coming to Qing Ming City to play Pokémon GO!

However, this did not have anything to do with him.

A few groups had already gone there earlier.

Basically, when they arrived, they would go to the higher floors to look for the python. After all, the higher they went, the greater the possibility of finding the python...

“The python seems to be hiding in the heating system. It may appear from the pipes.”

“Well...”

“However, the higher floors have the greatest possibility. After all, the sinister and cold auras in these few floors are too weak. Even if the python comes, its strength will be affected.”

“That’s right.”

The few people analyzed as they left.

A cultivator’s power was correlated to the battleground’s environment.

It was the same for a spirit body.

For example...

In a hot environment, the Fire Elementalist would become stronger.

In a cold and sinister environment, the python’s strength would increase tremendously.

This python refused to leave this place. Of course, it was because this was the most comfortable place for it. Seemingly, it wanted to build its nest here!

However...

Just as they were ascending the stairs, someone actually halted their steps.

“Eh?”

“Spirit body... there is also a spirit body here?!”

“What?”

Everyone was stunned. Could it be that the python appeared here?

“Over here.”

They followed the direction of the pointer. When they arrived outside Lu Ming’s room, the pointer suddenly released a dazzling glow!

And right then.

When he saw those cultivators returning, Lu Ming was also stunned. He could clearly sense an aura locking onto his location...

It seemed to be locking onto the Original Card!

Lu Ming was taken aback.

You guys can even lock onto this thing?!

You guys can also detect the spirit body in the Original Card?

Could it be that...

The pointer in their hands had the idiotic function of ‘The more tightly guarded a place is, the more likely the treasure lies herein’?!

Brother, you’re playing Pokémon GO and not The Ghouls, okay?!

You’ve opened the wrong game! Hey!

Shush!

Shush!

The steps at the door were approaching.

Lu Ming’s heart skipped a beat and his right hand was already grabbing onto the Original Card.

...
