This is a world where Soul Card Masters manipulate Soul Cards to battle. Originally, everyone honestly combined decks and performed advanced summons based on card abilities, until Yu Cang awakened ...
Chapter 245 Jieying decides to open the book
The princess's figure looked very similar to that of the people from Blue Star, but she was too white. She looked like milky white silk, pure and smooth. Yu Cang didn't know if it was an illusion, but he even felt that the princess's skin was so white that it was shining with holy light.
Of course, this is because Yu Cang only took one look. If he took another look, Gu Jieshuang would explode.
In this quick glance, Yu Cang didn't notice much information, nor could he see the princess's appearance clearly.
"I don't want to watch it anymore, I don't want to watch it anymore." Yu Cang took a few steps back to prove his innocence. "Xingchen, please close the door."
Hearing this, Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, no matter what, my innocence was finally preserved.
She quickly manipulated the spirit particle flow and closed the door of the room in front of her.
Seeing this, Gu Jieshuang also breathed a sigh of relief and took away the hand that was covering Yu Cang.
She shifted her gaze slightly and noticed Zhong Qi, who was kicked against the wall by her. He coughed lightly a few times and seemed a little embarrassed.
"Um... I'm sorry, it was an emergency just now... Are you okay?"
"No, no, no, I understand." Zhong Qi covered his chest and stood up with trembling eyes.
Frog fun.
He is also a melee soul card master, and as the president of the Shendu Combat Club, his physical fitness is definitely impressive.
Even if I don’t use soul cards to strengthen myself now... Gu Jieshuang doesn’t have it either!
How could someone kick himself seven or eight meters away?
The girl next door has grown up. She is as strong as a mountain and as powerful as the world, right?
Looking at Gu Jieshuang who looked a little embarrassed in front of him, he sighed and could only express forgiveness.
What else can I do if I don't forgive?
Let’s see what Yu Cang summoned just now.
The Dragon of the Last Dawn, the Will of the Star God...are these things something humans can deal with?
What happened next was even more outrageous. Yu Cang said some strange things and turned the princess who had imprisoned him for a month into his own soul card!
He really couldn't afford to offend this kind of person, especially now that they were on the princess's territory...which was also Yu Cang's territory.
Moreover, I was really curious just now and had to see what was inside.
Now, seeing the reactions of Yu Cang and the others, he probably understood what was going on... It was indeed not appropriate.
"Stardust." Yu Cang said, "Is that... your body?"
"Yes." The princess nodded, came to Yu Cang's eyes, and said, "Ten thousand years ago, I used the spiritual current to upload my consciousness to the Starry Sky Vision and fell asleep. As for my body... I left it here."
Yu Cang blinked: "Then... could it be that you originally wanted to return to your body, but now that I've put you in the soul card, the process can't be completed?"
If that's the case, it's truly a sin.
"...No." The princess sighed, "Now, the outside world is also very desolate, right?"
"Um……"
"My original body couldn't resist Huang's infection." Xingchen's face was calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him. "Ten thousand years ago, before I fell into a deep sleep, I had already anticipated this. There was no possibility of reusing this body..."
"Is that so?" Yu Cang said nothing.
The princess must not be as calm as she said because she had used instruments to preserve her body for ten thousand years.
Perhaps, she must still be thinking about driving Huang away one day and then returning to her own body.
"For now, the Starry Sky Vision Region is considered a pure land," the princess explained. "The infection of the wilderness hasn't spread here yet, so uploading my consciousness here is very safe. That's how I was able to sleep safely for ten thousand years."
"Okay." Yu Cang nodded.
Next, the princess brought Yu Cang to a small room.
The room was not big. When the princess turned on the light, two rows of shelves extended on both sides, filled with "eggs" made of white metal.
"This is……?"
"These are 'spirit particle generators,'" the princess said. "These are what make 'spirit particles.' I checked them a few days ago and found twelve generators still functioning properly. This exceeded my expectations. Take all of these with you. You'll need them later."
"Come to think of it." Yu Cang was a little curious, "What exactly is this 'spiritual particle'? It can actually travel back and forth between the Starry Sky Vision and the real world so freely."
The Starry Sky Vision is the intersection of the gazes of the stars. Logically speaking, anything that can exist in it has no entity. How can it be brought into the real world so easily?
"Spiritual child..." The princess thought for a moment, "It's actually a solidified specific rhythm... You may not understand it this way, but."
The princess raised her head and looked in a certain direction: "You already have a consciousness beast, I wonder if you have ever seen a consciousness insect?"
"I have met you." Yu Cang nodded.
Not only have I seen it, but there is also a huge ice city in captivity next to my own Jieying campus.
"Spirit particles are related to the gnat." The princess flew to a shelf and gently touched a gnat generator with her finger, which was made of spirit particles. Suddenly, a faint fluorescent light lit up. "In fact, an important material for making spirit particles is the body of the gnat. The generator will crush the gnat's body and reduce it to the most basic rhythmic unit, while retaining some of its properties, allowing it to absorb and release rhythm.
"In fact, when this system was first created, it was based on directly manipulating the Insectoids for combat. While practical, that approach required destructive mining of the Starry Sky Vision... It wasn't until thousands of years of technological development that it evolved to its current state, where the Insectoids are manipulated into a spirit particle stream. This is not only more 'environmentally friendly', but also more flexible and powerful."
At this point, the princess puffed out her cheeks and said angrily:
"However, many civilizations, eager to master the spirit particle flow technology, are unwilling to proceed step by step, and have committed many unscrupulous acts behind the Empire's back... Some civilizations have even invented a highly polluting weapon that can directly mutate the normal rhythm in the Starry Sky Vision Field into a sentient insect!
"If technology isn't up to par, the worm-sense system can be an uncontrollable disaster. I remember clearly a civilization that misused weapons, causing a terrifying surge in mutated worm-senses across the surrounding starry sky. The entire civilization was annihilated by the backlash... They survived, but the pollution brought to the Starry Sky Vision by those mutated worm-senses and their weapons spread uncontrollably. It took the Empire a tremendous amount of effort to control it... Humph, born of a mother but not raised by her..."
"……Um?"
Yu Cang glanced sideways.
Did you say something inappropriate in the end?
"Come to think of it," the princess said, her expression still ladylike, completely unlike the one who had just cursed. She asked in confusion, "I just released a frequency band a few days ago to attract consciousness bugs. I specially adjusted the frequency, and the consciousness bugs attracted by this band have basically no ability to affect the present world. At most, they consume some stones and soil, which is just right for producing spirit particles... But I haven't seen any sign of consciousness bugs yet. Yu Cang, do you have any clues?"
Yu Cang: "..."
You're not talking about the group you raised in Ice City...
I was wondering why a large group of insect identifiers suddenly came.
"Hmm..." Yu Cang hesitated, "I just happened to catch a group of insects a few days ago. Perhaps, there is a possibility... that it was the group you attracted?"
Princess: "..."
Oh, it’s you!
She had been living a very tight life this month, wishing she could split one spirit particle flow into two. She even replaced the spirit particle flow she gave to Zhong Qi for awakening with her own spirit particle flow... She felt sorry for those one hundred spirit particles for a long time!
The princess took a deep breath.
Forget it. I’m already in this guy’s hands now, so there’s no need to worry about those things.
Yu Cang decided to explain himself: "I said, the situation was quite urgent at the time, and I had no choice... After all, the group of consciousness insects happened to appear near my bubble world. I could have returned to the real world to hide, but if I had left it alone, my bubble world would have been destroyed."
"Hmm?" the princess wondered. "Your Sense Beast can even create a bubble world... driving away those Sense Bugs should be easy too... Why would you need to do it yourself and waste your knowledge?"
Yu Cang doesn't know spiritual particles, so taking action in the Starry Sky Vision will definitely consume his knowledge. Even if he catches the Knowledge Bug, Yu Cang has no way to use it at this stage. Isn't this a pure waste?
Yu Cang: ...
Well... although this is true in theory, my own Jieying is indeed a little timid and overly afraid of pain.
When Jieying came looking for him, if he didn't want to fight, he could just order Jieying to fight, and Jieying wouldn't resist him. It was just that seeing Jieying's pitiful appearance, he felt a little sorry for her, that's all.
After all, Jieying is young and lacks combat experience. He cannot accurately estimate the difference in strength between the enemy and us. It would be bad if any accidents happen during the battle... Anyway, Yu Cang's knowledge is renewable.
"...Well, you will know later." Yu Cang decided to give Jie Ying some face for the time being.
After all, Jieying is still trapped outside the fog of the Starry Sky Vision Area and is constantly challenging us.
"Oh right," Yu Cang said, "my beast is called Jieying. He needs to eat some high-level rhythms recently. Do you have any?"
"Yes." The princess had obviously realized that Yu Cang would say this, and she agreed very readily.
With a wave of her hand, she activated her authority and dispelled the fog.
The fog outside is also the ability of the Princess Spirit Flow, but it has been strengthened by the devices in the ruins and with the special permission of the Star God, so it looks a little stronger.
Now her strength was limited by her soul card, and the Star God's will had also fled with Yu Cang... The fog outside had long been unsustainable. Even if she didn't cancel it, it would gradually dissipate over time.
…
Heaven.
Jieying was a little tired from cursing, and was now lying on the solid fog to take a rest.
"Alas, I don't know when the scholar will be able to solve that consciousness." Jieying thought to himself.
Well, in his opinion, there was nothing to doubt about it.
Yu Cang's expressiveness is so abundant that Jieying has always had full trust in him.
The meteor that just passed by me had the aura of the scholar on it... I guess it's almost over.
Thinking of this, Jieying excitedly wagged his tail, stirring up countless rhythms.
There will be food soon!
He could feel that Yu Cang doted on him quite a bit... He knew that he was afraid of pain, and there were many battles that he could handle on his own, but he didn't let him take part.
Jieying knew that there were many summoned beings like himself around Yu Cang, but... he must be special!
After all, all the tasks in the Starry Sky Vision Area are things that only I can do - and I haven't become arrogant because of my favor. I complete every task with all my heart and effort. If Yu Cang doesn't favor me, who else should he favor?
Moreover, the scholar's comrades-in-arms couldn't see him yet... Otherwise, based on his observation, Ye Lai would definitely come over and ask him to pay more attention in the battle, and he wouldn't be able to handle it.
The petite and cute Jieying just doesn't want to fight. What did he do wrong?
Thinking of this, Jieying lay on his back above the fog, basking in the sun.
Suddenly, he felt a breath flying up into the sky from the bottom, heading straight towards him.
Hmm... it feels like the meteor that just went down? Looks like the battle is over, and it will soon be my turn to feast!
However, what he did not expect was that the meteor actually flew directly into the starry sky's field of vision and soon came in front of him.
Jieying was stunned.
Hmm... Can the scholar's new comrade enter the Starry Sky Vision Zone?
For some reason, he felt a panic in his heart and quickly twisted his body to right himself from the fog.
Buzz...
The surroundings kept shaking, rhythmic sounds kept ringing, and the fiery red thunder carried a huge figure into the sky, but stopped in front of Jieying.
Click! Click!
The bodies that were abandoned due to Yu Cang's lack of mental pressure kept flying from the surroundings, constantly merging with the body of the Star God's will, until finally, a huge dark blue statue appeared in front of Jieying.
Although this giant statue is certainly not as big as Jieying, when the will of the Star God stood before Jieying, the rhythm around him seemed to be dominated and subdued. An aura that seemed to override everything enveloped Jieying, making him involuntarily nervous.
In other words, he sensed the presence of the scholar and knew that this was a friendly force. Otherwise, facing such an existence, Jieying would have slipped away long ago.
"Um, you, you are..."
"I am the will of the Star God." The colossus looked at Jieying, a faint blue light appearing in his eyes. "From now on, I will always stay in the Starry Sky Vision beside Yu Cang. If you encounter any problems, you can come to me and I will help you."
"Ah... okay, hello, I'm Jieying." Jieying looked at the colossus's expression cautiously... but what expression could the colossus have?
Jieying hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Um... Excuse me, what is your ability..."
"Fight." The Star God's will said calmly.
Hearing this, Jieying was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the other party speak: "Of course, besides this, I can help with everything in the Xingtian Vision. For example - managing the bubble world, helping others practice, etc."
He is part of the Star God. Apart from creating bubble worlds, anything that a beast can do is also very simple for him.
It's just that his method might be a little rough.
As soon as these words were spoken, Jieying stood there in a daze.
What, what does that mean...
Are you going to have a competitor?
Judging from the will of this Star God, he can do everything he can do... He can even fight. And judging by his aura, his fighting ability is very high...
He can do what I can do, and he can also do what I don’t want to do. So... doesn’t that mean that I am not the most special one?
Jieying felt as if a bolt from the blue had fallen on his head.
Thinking of this, he asked again: "Then you need to ask the scholar to find you some rhythm or something to eat regularly..."
"No need—I can absorb the rhythm myself."
Jieying: “…”
Damn it, it’s easier to support than myself.
He was favored by Yu Cang because he knew that he was the only one who could do things in the Xingtian Vision, and he did it well. But now a "competitor" who was so formidable had appeared... and this guy could do more than him, and could even participate in the battles of the scholars in the real world...
Can he still feel safe and secure about being favored?
In an instant, Jieying became nervous.
On the other side, the Star God's Will was indeed a little confused when looking at the Boundary Shadow in this state.
My colleague...why is he making this expression?
Was there something rude about the way I greeted you just now?
This is not good.
Although he was part of the will of the Star God, he did not think that he was superior to others. Everyone gathered together to help Yu Cang, so they should still get along well with each other on a daily basis.
He didn't have much time to stay in the real world, and the Jieying in front of him would probably be the one he would deal with the most in the future, so he came to say hello, hoping to maintain a good relationship and not let Yu Cang worry about this.
But looking at Jieying's expression... really, it seems that I am not good at speaking and inadvertently said something that the senior doesn't want to hear.
So his eyes became more sincere: "I'm sorry, Jieying, we are all here to help Yu Cang, if I have offended you in any way, I hope you don't mind... By the way, in the future, when you are not fighting, please leave more things in the bubble world to me, I will help you out."
Jieying was greatly shocked.
How come you, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, are still a green tea!
Are you mocking me?
Moreover, you actually stole my job so openly?
Damn... my new colleague is actually a curly-haired dog!
A look of despair appeared in Jieying's small eyes.
"...Boundary Shadow?" The Star God's Will was somewhat puzzled.
"I'm fine..." Jieying said with a broken heart, "You should go back to Xingtian Vision first... Don't worry, I'll definitely find you if anything happens..."
"Okay, thank you for your help." The Star God Will nodded, then flew away with thunder all over his body.
Behind him, Jieying looked painful.
Volume...you want to open the volume, right?
Okay, then he rolls too!
Isn't it just a fight... He can do that! Wuuuuuu... But it really hurts...
Tears welled up in Jieying's little eyes.
At this moment, he felt the fog beneath him suddenly dissipate, and it seemed that the battle had come to an end.
He then calmed his mind, lowered his body, and swam towards Yu Cang's position.
No matter what, he hasn't fallen out of favor yet, and he wants the scholar's comfort! 嘤嘤嘤……After finishing this meal, he immediately thought of ways to increase his workload!
However, when he saw Yu Cang, he was suddenly stunned.
Scholar... who is that person next to you? How come they are also in the Starry Sky Vision?
"You're here, Jieying." Yu Cang said with a smile, "Let me introduce you. This is Xingchen. She has many techniques related to the Starry Sky Vision. You should learn more from her..."
Jieying could no longer hear what Yu Cang said next.
Why... why is there another one...
No, he doesn't want any comfort!
He can’t wait any longer, he wants to open the book now!
