Chapter 735: Past is a bubble

For Yu Cang now, it is not difficult to kill a few wild beasts to collect the wild crystals.

The next day, Yu Cang brought enough money and came to the secret grassland again.

He sat cross-legged in front of the mountain-like desolate crystal, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

During this day, he did a little experiment.

However, he found that when he tried to use the entry recorder to summon Huang Jing, the probability of successful summoning did not change significantly.

Logically speaking, in previous situations, if there was a target that could be summoned, the success rate of term implantation should have been improved.

The current situation only shows that Nian’s condition is really bad, and he seems unable to even respond to the call.

Yu Cang was picking and choosing in the entry library, but his brows were always furrowed.

No, the success rate is too low.

Moreover, if the success rate of implantation here is similar to that in the outside world, even if the implantation is successful, it may just be an ordinary soul card, rather than summoning Nian into the soul card.

This doesn't make sense.

However, there should be a way.

Yu Cang now has more experience in using the entry recorder, his own plug-in.

Although the recorder's interface did not describe any additional functions, Yu Cang could have used his own power to influence the implantation process... as long as he found the right method.

What should I do...

Yu Cang kept thinking.

call……

A gentle breeze blew across the grassland and the sky was clear.

Di Chang'an was not there. He knew in his heart that the card-making process was quite private to the card-maker. If outsiders watched, it might lead to the failure of the card-making.

After all, the card making this time uses years as the "raw material"... He did not dare to be vague about matters related to the Creator, so he had already left and did not put any perception into this space.

I just made an agreement with Yu Cang that I can find him anytime after it’s over.

So at this moment, there was only Yu Cang and... Chao Ci in the entire space.

At this time, Chao Ci was coiled in the grass beside Cang in the form of a dragon, just silently raising his head and looking at Huang Jing.

This time, Nian's shadow did not appear in the wild crystal, as if yesterday's appearance had exhausted all remaining opportunities.

The silence in this space did not last long.

Suddenly, Chao Ci said, "Yu Cang, don't stress so much... Nian Ben is already dead."

Her voice was very calm, as if she had accepted this fact.

Unlike the emotional fluctuations of yesterday, Chao Ci today put away all unnecessary emotions, as if... he had become the creator who once sat above Feng Yue Cangjian.

Listening to Chao Ci's calm words, Yu Cang came back to his senses.

He looked at Chao Ci, his eyes fluctuating quietly.

"There will be a way." Yu Cang rubbed his chin slightly.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said, "By the way, Chao Ci... I remember you said before that you have the authority to revive any existence with just 'memory'. So, is it possible to use this to revive the year?"

That was the information Yu Cang obtained from Chao Ci after everyone had studied the will and power of the Star God before entering the Longevity Tent.

The power of the Star God's will, even in Xingchen's eyes, was incredibly powerful and unpredictable. So much so that he speculated the existence of a second realm of consciousness!

After the Star God's will descends, it will record everything that has been destroyed in the second realm of consciousness. Therefore, when it leaves, it can restore everything, and no one can interfere with this.

After that, Yu Cang asked Chao Ci, but Chao Ci knew very little about the world of consciousness, and only said... all this was related to memory.

Back when she was the Creator, she could freely use her memories to revive others—after all, everything on Blue Star belonged to her. Nian's existence had nothing to do with the Imperial Star, so perhaps she could use this authority to revive others.

However, Chao Ci shook his head: "After leaving Feng Yue Cang Jian, I have lost this power... Moreover, my authority can only revive, not replicate. A part of Nian has been taken away forever by Huang, and even if I am still the Creator, I cannot recover it.

"...and it will only allow Huang's infection to be transmitted through Huang to me."

"Can this be contagious?"

"I'm afraid so." Chao Ci said softly.

Even if it was just a touch of power from a distance, it was enough to provide Huang with an opportunity to be infected.

Although she hadn't tried to do so, her intuitive warning was not false.

Moreover, when she was still the Creator, she would not try to resuscitate her own children - at that time, her reluctance was not great enough to make her make a decision that disrespected death.

Only now... Fan Ling's emotions gave him unnecessary options.

Yu Cang was silent for a moment.

After pondering for a moment, he turned and said, "By the way... Chao Ci, yesterday I seemed to sense that you had touched upon the opportunity for a breakthrough. Is this true?"

"That's right..." Chao Ci closed his eyes gently, "But I gave up."

"Why?"

“…”

Chao Ci was silent.

Seeing this, Yu Cang did not force it: "If you don't want to talk about it, then forget it."

"...It's just some unnecessary emotions of mine." Chao Ci suddenly sighed, "I...I don't want to break through because of Nian's death. It will make me feel that my power has been tainted by evil thoughts."

"I see." Yu Cang nodded, "I understand."

Chao Ci's eyelids twitched, and she said to herself, "Don't you think I'm being pretentious?"

"How could that be?"

"You really need power beyond the mythical realm right now... I'll be able to help you even more after my breakthrough, but I'm running away because of this personal relationship..."

Before Chao Ci finished speaking, Yu Cang's big hand rubbed her little head.

"What are you thinking about?" Yu Cang ruffled Chao Ci's beard and hair. "If I really asked you to do this, you wouldn't have been kidnapped from Feng Yuecang by me."

Chao Ci's delicate little head was touched by Yu Cang's big hand so hard that he couldn't lift it up, and could only make a meaningless humming sound.

What is "拐"? Using this word on the Creator is really rude!

She really wanted to refute this, but Yu Cang obviously did not give her the opportunity.

He continued, "Furthermore, this is no small matter—you're doing the right thing. If you truly achieve such a breakthrough, then those years of obsession will probably become a demon within you. It's better not to have that kind of power—if I'm too eager for quick success and ask you to do this, then it will become a demon within me, too."

So, he understood Chao Ci.

When coming down from Feng Yuecang, Chao Ci also made ambitious plans to Yu Cang. Those words are still fresh in his mind.

... "You can surpass the Emperor's Heart after giving it up, so why can't I?" ...

She was determined to rely on her own strength to break through the realm and give Blue Star a chance to survive.

Is it true that the ultimate realization of such an ambitious goal depends on the sacrifice of children?

Chao Ci was unwilling to accept it.

But she also knew in her heart that the opportunity had already appeared before her. Whether she admitted it or not, she would eventually have to take this path... She had to face this hurdle in her heart and then cross it.

Chao Ci finally broke free from Yu Cang's big hand. She glanced at Yu Cang lightly, expressing her dissatisfaction, and then snuggled up to Yu Cang's legs.

"There's no need to be so sentimental—I don't necessarily have the qualifications to become a Transcendent God right now."

Yu Cang was stunned and blinked.

This... seems reasonable.

The Creator definitely has a quota, but the current Chao Ci may not.

If you break through rashly, you might really turn into a sun.

But...if that's the case, is it not possible for Chao Ci to break through using his own soul card?

I should be able to take my place...

He couldn't think of the answer to this question yet, so he could only keep it in his heart for the time being.

Yu Cang turned his gaze back to the wild crystal in front of him.

It's time.

His expression became serious for a moment, and then he exchanged an entry extraction accelerator from the recorder's store and immediately used it on the object in front of him.

The next second, the seven-day countdown melted into nothingness and returned to zero, and a line of words appeared on the entry recorder:

The entry extraction is complete, and the mythical entry is obtained: [Reincarnation], the legendary entry is [Illusion], the epic entry is [Wisdom], the rare entry is [Wild Crystal], and the common entry is [Food]

A new set of entries was extracted in this way.

It basically met Yu Cang's initial expectations, except for... that [bubble], which made Yu Cang a little confused.

Bubble... does it refer to the phantom I saw in the desolate crystal yesterday?

It's possible.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Cang took out a blank soul card.

He had an idea... he didn't know if it was appropriate.

Try it first.

First, he wanted to make a soul card, but it was not related to Huang, but an old soul card from before - portable fragment!

This epic spell card has a built-in storage space that can be used to store some miscellaneous items. In addition, its ability [Path Cutoff] also has some combat capabilities... although it is only better than nothing.

Now, what Yu Cang has to do is to upgrade its quality first and make it a heirloom!

There were stars in Yu Cang's eyes, and he had completely entered the state.

This process is not difficult... He has already fully understood the rhythm of this soul card, not to mention that earlier, Yu Cang had also studied all the rhythms of high-level soul cards such as the Land of the Descent Chariot in depth.

It's just a quality upgrade, which doesn't take much effort at all. Besides, Yu Cang can now use related entries to make fine adjustments.

Well, let's focus on increasing the capacity of this Soul Card and remove all combat aspects. We don't need this Soul Card to support the battlefield right now, so...

Seeing Yu Cang start making cards, Chao Ci did not disturb him. She leaned at Yu Cang's feet and began to take a nap.

Not long after, a legendary spell appeared in Yu Cang's hand:

…

Soul Card Name: Portable World

Category: Spell Card

Quality: Heirloom

Attributes: Empty

ability:

[Small World]: There is a small world in this soul card, which will maintain the circulation of matter and energy as much as possible according to the parameters set by the user and the materials provided.

[Portable]: When the soul card is not activated, the small world can still be used, and the user can put in or take out substances.

…

Yu Cang nodded slightly.

Can.

The original form of this card was provided by the entry recorder, and its starting point was very high. After the quality was upgraded to heirloom, its quality has surpassed most storage soul cards.

Its [small world] can form its own material and energy cycle, so there is no problem even if living things are placed in it... In terms of stability, it is even better than the place where the chariot is lowered.

The matter in the Land of Descending Chariot was transformed from chaotic clouds, and living things could not stay in it for too long, but this portable world did not have such concerns.

Then……

Yu Cang raised his head and looked at the Huang Jing in front of him.

Well... the current portable world is big enough to store this thing.

Thinking of this, Yu Cang picked up Chao Ci, took a few steps back, and then raised his hand.

Buzz!

The shadow of the portable fragment's soul card opened directly under the wild crystal, and countless rainbow-like lights surged out from it!

Then, the desolate crystal slowly fell silent in this light, and finally completely entered the portable world.

Chao Ci in Yu Cang's arms couldn't help but raise his head: "Yu Cang, it's useless even if you seal it up. The God of Desolation will find it eventually..."

"I know." Yu Cang said, "This is my attempt at making a card."

"Make a card?" Chao Ci frowned slightly.

Could it be that... Yu Cang wants to first store the wild crystal into the soul card, and then transform the soul card as a whole?

But this seems... meaningless.

It would be better to process the wild crystal and use the materials from the wild crystal to make soul cards.

The portable world itself is a void attribute heirloom soul card, and its power will definitely interfere with the card making process, thus causing the card making to fail... Even if we take a step back, this operation has nothing to do with preserving the consciousness of the year.

Chao Ci also knew a little about card making, so he naturally noticed the omission.

Facing Chao Ci's doubts, Yu Cang was very confident: "Don't worry, I'm sure."

Theoretically, this is not possible, but he has an entry recorder.

"...Okay then." Chao Ci said, "I...I'll go back to the place where the chariot was lowered first. When you succeed...call me."

Although she still didn't understand what Yu Cang was going to do, she knew in her heart that if she failed, the desolate crystal would definitely be destroyed in the rhythmic riot.

So, she should leave for now.

After saying this, without waiting for Cang's reply, he turned around and disappeared into the clouds.

…

After Chao Ci left, Yu Cang took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

He looked at the recorder and listed the entries he had prepared long ago.

"It will succeed..."

Next, he will implant entries into the entire portable world containing the Nianhuang Crystal!

Only in this way can we ensure that everything is preserved to the greatest extent possible.

I glanced at the success rate. After adding all the entries just extracted, the success rate is still not low, about 12.1%.

Then, he added all the terms such as [Thinking] and [Time Coordinates] into it - very good, the success rate did not drop much.

"Then...entry implantation!"

…

Buzz!

The light bloomed in Cang's palm and then shot up into the sky!

Yu Cang opened his eyes wide.

Success!

But... this time, success alone is not enough!

Yu Cang held his breath and immersed his consciousness deeply in the soul card in his hand. While trying to guide the direction of card making with his will, he also called out to Nian's consciousness over and over again.

He had once communicated with a fragment of Nian's afterimage in Feng Yuecang, so he was quite familiar with Nian.

At this moment, this hint of familiarity became the bond he was looking for, helping him... to find the illusory phantom that was about to disappear!

…

Buzz!

Implantation successful!

…

Soul Card Name: Fleeting Time, Past Fleets

Category: Spell Card

Quality: Mythical

Attributes: Empty

ability:

[A Moment of Cutting]: This soul card records a period of time. When it is in the deck, the user can cut the time of other substances into it at any time.

[Annual Ring Bubble]: When this Soul Card is not activated, a layer of "bubble" will remain around the holder. When the bubble is punctured by an attack, the Soul Card will enter a death cooldown, and the attack will be borne by the future holder after the Soul Card's death cooldown ends.

[A Moment of the Past]: This Soul Card has a one-year Death Cooldown. Spending time can hasten the end of the Death Cooldown.

…

A soul card slowly fell into Yu Cang's hands.

He looked at the soul card and was slightly stunned.

Success? Or failure?
