Chapter 250 Yu Cang’s destiny star?
Seeing that Yu Cang didn't seem to care much, Zhong Qi's expression turned a little more serious, and then he said, "Yu Cang, don't be careless... By the time the college league comes, the Princess and Star God Will you just used will most likely be banned by the association."
Judging from his battle in the ruins, apart from those soul cards, the rest of Yu Cang's deck is pretty normal... probably.
If those over-standard cards were banned, Yu Cang's strength would undoubtedly be greatly weakened!
By then, I will have the help of Lingzi Liu, and defeating Yu Cang will be just around the corner!
Hearing this, Yu Cang was stunned.
"You're right...
It’s okay in other sessions, but this time... I guess there will be a setting like “prohibiting the use of heirloom soul cards”.
At first glance, it seems quite nonsensical. How could a competition in which you, a level 5 soul card master, participate have banned legendary cards? But Yu Cang looked at his own deck and realized that this rule was indeed necessary.
Come to think of it, I've done so many things myself, I'm sure the people drawing up the banned card list for this college league will have a headache.
A smile appeared on Yu Cang's lips.
"Don't worry, no matter how many cards I disable, I will only become stronger than I am now." Yu Cang said, "If you want to beat me, you still need to work harder."
"certainly!"
Yu Cang smiled but said nothing.
Compared with his extra card deck and superior big brother, his subordinate system is indeed still relatively primitive. Duan Feng's ridicule at the time was indeed reasonable.
Next, it’s time for me to improve the way my subordinates manage their resources.
Duan Feng's dragon egg, Zhong Qi's spirit particle flow, and even the sword intent that Gu Jieshuang will obtain... are all able to form powerful combat power at the beginning. In comparison, he is still using the primitive half-dragon man. Even if he can combine the dragon scales to deploy, he has to wait until the first wave of monsters die... It is indeed not good enough.
It was fine with the previous version, but now that I have personally pushed for the overall environment update, this upgrade must also keep up.
…
After seeing Zhong Qi and Zhong Lin off, Yu Cang returned to the tent.
"Yu Cang!" The princess dragged her soul card to Yu Cang's face, "Now that we have time, let's try to master the spirit particle first, right?"
"Hmm?" Yu Cang turned his head. "Didn't you say that there are no extra spirit particles now?"
"I'll give you mine!" the princess said immediately.
Although the Star God seemed to want Yu Cang to open the Star Armory, the princess was still a little panicked.
She still couldn't let go of her worries because she hadn't seen Yu Cang's talent in controlling spiritual particles with her own eyes.
"Okay then." Yu Cang sat down, his eyes showing an interested look, "I always hear you talk about this Lingzi, and now I am also very curious."
"Wait a moment."
The princess's body entered the soul card behind her, but there were still many spirit particles holding the soul card in the air.
After rummaging in it for a while, the princess came out again, holding her hands to her chest. There seemed to be something in it, but Yu Cang took a few glances and saw nothing.
"Yes, these are one hundred spirit particles. I have cleansed them of any remnants of my will and restored them to an ownerless state... Don't resist later."
"Okay." Yu Cang agreed.
The next second, he saw the princess raise her hands and slowly open them in front of Yu Cang.
It seemed that some strange spots of light flashed before Yu Cang's eyes, and Yu Cang felt a sudden tingling sensation on his eyeballs.
With the princess's reminder, Yu Cang tried hard to control his body and did not resist.
This feeling lasted for a very short time. After just a few seconds, it disappeared completely. At this time, Yu Cang could feel that there seemed to be something extra in his sight.
Points of light, many points of light!
He fixed his eyes, trying to concentrate on these light spots, but he couldn't do it. These light spots seemed to have their own consciousness and were very naughty. Wherever Yu Cang focused his gaze, those light spots would automatically move away.
It seems that they are avoiding Yu Cang's "observation".
There were too many light spots, and their movements were irregular. After looking at them for a while, Yu Cang felt dizzy.
He closed his eyes and rubbed his brows gently, but in this pitch-black space, he could still see these spots of light.
Seeing Yu Cang like this, the princess covered her mouth and laughed quietly. Then she straightened her face, coughed lightly, and said, "Yu Cang, don't deliberately look at the trajectory of the spirit particle. It's impossible to see the spirit particle that way... You need to use your 'intuition'!"
"Intuition?" Yu Cang looked at the princess in confusion.
"Yes." The princess flew in front of Yu Cang and explained carefully, "The movement of spirit particles has no regular pattern, and they will actively avoid observation. If you want to catch them, you must 'predict' their trajectory!"
"...That sounds complicated."
"Of course it's complicated." The princess crossed her arms, a look of satisfaction on her face. "The movements of these one hundred spirit particles are completely independent. There's no other way to predict the movements of all of them simultaneously except through intuition. But don't underestimate this complexity. Once you use your intuition to capture it once, these spirit particles will automatically move according to your intuition."
After a while, Yu Cang was a little annoyed by these constantly flashing lights: "It sounds like if we're lucky enough, we can complete the capture process."
"No." The princess shook her head. "Luck is useless. If your intuition doesn't match the spirit particles, even if you have the best luck, there's no chance of guessing all the spirit particle locations."
"Is that so?" Yu Cang frowned. "No wonder this method requires such high talent."
"Yes—but you don't have to rush," the princess said. "Right now, these spirit particles can't escape your sight, so just take your time. It took me a whole day to successfully grasp the trajectory of all the spirit particles. In the empire, this speed is second only to my brother!"
"Really?" Yu Cang ignored the spirits for the time being. He sat cross-legged on the ground, deep in thought.
The princess is right.
But... somehow, he suddenly had a feeling that if he wanted to control these spirit particles, he didn't need these troublesome steps.
Over there, the princess was still talking, introducing the basic settings of Lingzi to Yu Cang.
Suddenly, she saw Yu Cang stretched out a hand.
"Yu Cang, what are you going to do?" The princess blinked. "No, you can't catch the spirit particle with your hands before you capture it... Hmm?"
She suddenly froze.
Yu Cang placed his hands in front of his eyes, palms facing up, and gently grabbed the air. Those spirit particles that originally existed only in Yu Cang's field of vision suddenly took shape, and under the influence of an unknown force, condensed in Yu Cang's hands!
A large light spot formed by many light spots slowly rotated in Yu Cang's palm.
The princess was stunned.
She shook her head and quickly flew to the point of light. She looked left and right, and said in disbelief, "Yu Cang, what have you done? ...Have you already captured it with your intuition?"
"Not yet." Yu Cang's face showed a smile as his eyes were focused on the one hundred spirit particles condensed together in his palm.
Under his gaze, these spirit particles appeared unusually "well-behaved".
"But, but..." The princess's brain froze.
Yu Cang stared silently for a moment, then said, "These spirits are not following my intuition—they are submitting to my will."
Princess: "..."
Is Zundu fake?
"Why? Is this situation rare?" Yu Cang asked in confusion.
"...What do you mean by rare? I've never seen it before."
"Well, what do you think this situation means?"
"What it means... I can't say." The princess landed on a nearby table, her brows furrowed slightly, looking deeply troubled. "From the results... your control method is no different from normal control methods, but your speed... is too depressing."
How long has it taken?
A few minutes? A few seconds?
Zhong Qi later said that it was only after about a week that he realized that he could predict the future.
And Yu Cang's time... could be considered a single instant. This was a huge blow to the princess, who had always known she was very talented.
Yu Cang didn't care about that.
As soon as he thought about it, these spirit particles flowed around obediently according to his will, forming a spirit particle flow. This feeling of being able to control things as easily as using one's own arms and fingers made Yu Cang quite satisfied.
"So, have I learned it now?"
"I don't know either..." The princess thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Yu Cang, can you feel the power of your spirit?"
Hearing this, Yu Cang was silent for a moment, and then he said, "No. My spirit child doesn't seem to have any abilities."
The princess suddenly perked up: "See! I knew it! Although I don't know why, you must have taken a shortcut. If Yu Cang wants to truly use the spirit particle, you still have to follow my method step by step!"
Yu Cang nodded: "... maybe. By the way, when can I get the authority spirit of the Star Armory?"
"You need to have enough spirit particles to do this... You don't need to worry about this. I will help keep an eye on it."
"Does mastering spirit particles later also require capturing them bit by bit through intuition like this?"
"Yes."
“…How troublesome.”
"This method is simple enough." The princess shook her head and stopped talking. "By the way, Yu Cang. When I entered the Starry Sky Vision Zone earlier, why didn't I see your life star? Did you hide it?"
"No. Speaking of which, I was just about to ask you... Ever since I entered the Starry Sky Vision, I seem to have never seen my destiny star."
"What?" The princess was stunned. "But, that's impossible. Only those with a destiny star can enter the Starry Sky Vision. This is determined by the nature of the Starry Sky Vision. If you haven't seen your destiny star, you can't enter the Starry Sky Vision!"
"...But if I remember correctly, you seemed to say that your brother also didn't find his destiny star, right?"
"Of course my brother is different," the princess explained. "He's the destined one. To ensure he grows up as quickly as possible after the Imperial Star appears, the empire has poured countless resources into it. These resources alone are enough for some civilizations to undergo several technological revolutions...
"Just like the Destiny Star, when the Emperor Star didn't appear, the Empire used pure spirit particles to construct seven 'artificial Destiny Stars'. This allowed my brother to enter the Starry Sky Vision Domain and study in advance."
Yu Cang was a little surprised: "This is really... luxurious."
There are seven stars composed of pure spirit particles...
Yu Cang had no idea about this, but he knew that the Insect Knowledge must have a lot of opinions about these life stars.
"So, it's impossible for a person to not have a destiny star. Otherwise, you wouldn't even be able to enter the Starry Sky Vision!" The princess frowned. "The only possibility is that your destiny star is hidden... Wait."
The princess suddenly looked at Yu Cang, her eyes wide open: "The only recorded thing that can hide its destiny star is... the Emperor Star!"
Yu Cang raised his brows: "Emperor Star?"
"But, that's not right. In an era, only one person should be able to use the Emperor Star as their destiny star..."
Yu Cang blinked: "Don't tell me that I am the reincarnation of your brother."
"...Impossible." The princess shook her head repeatedly. "You two don't look alike at all. If you were in front of me, I would definitely recognize you immediately... And there's no such thing as reincarnation. It's just a lie for children!"
"Okay, I was just joking."
As a younger sister, the princess is not as cute as Qi'er.
but……
Yu Cang seemed to be thinking about something.
In the ancient capital, when he was about to fight Duan Feng, he once felt the scene of the stars in the sky gradually disappearing in the starry sky vision. The feeling at that time... was as if the destiny star was right behind him.
Back then, there was nothing behind him. But now it seems... maybe, behind him, there is the Blue Star?
The blue star is not the sun and cannot be used as a life star. So, if I really do have a life star...
Could it be the imperial star that fell on the blue planet ten thousand years ago?
It seems to make sense. After all, although the princess's brother was the destined person chosen by the Emperor Star...but before he came into this world, the Emperor Star had already been sent there. Maybe this spot has not been used yet.
Yu Cang scratched his head.
However, the Emperor Star has already "fallen", can it still be regarded as a destiny star?
Yu Cang expressed his doubts to the princess.
"Well..." The princess was stumped again.
It's over, her character can't hold up anymore. She said before that she had read a lot of literature, but now she can't answer any of these questions.
But what can she do?
The Emperor Star only appears once in an era, and this is the first time everyone has seen it. The fall of the Emperor Star is unprecedented in history, and there are no records to refer to. How can she explain this?
but……
"If the Emperor Star still has some energy left, and can even choose someone, it would be a good thing for the current starry sky." The princess smiled. "Yu Cang, according to what you said, your star could indeed be the Emperor Star. However, it seems that your star is very likely not the Emperor Star, but just a small amount of residual energy left behind. After all, according to previous records, the people chosen by the Emperor Star had the power of heaven and earth in their every move, which is much more exaggerated than yours."
"Okay." Yu Cang nodded.
After all this time, he found out that he was actually a defective person with a destiny - he didn't have any regrets about it, he just hoped that it wouldn't bring him any negative impact.
However, compared to this.
Yu Cang seemed to have thought of something and his mind moved.
Gu Jieshuang said that he once used the star rank details to sense his own destiny star... So does that mean that as long as he finds a way, he will also be able to sense his destiny star, that is... the dead emperor star?
Even go a step further and summon the dead Emperor Star?
Yu Cang rubbed his chin.
Worth a try!
If the Emperor Star's fall was caused by a conspiracy, then when the person behind the scenes saw the Emperor Star that was supposed to fall reappear, his expression would surely be very interesting.
However, it is too early to think about this now.
"Okay, when I have time, I will try to control these spiritual particles." Yu Cang yawned, "Now, go to sleep."
These spirits are quite obedient. As long as I think about it, they will stop running around in my sight and will not affect my sleep at all.
…
the next day.
Yu Cang and Gu Jieshuang walked around the ruins.
After the princess was summoned by Yu Cang as a soul card, the last dangerous factor in the ruins disappeared. Now they are here, which is equivalent to playing.
Soon, the process of Jieying's feeding rhythm was completed.
The advanced rhythm here is related to the Star God.
God loves the world, and the rhythm associated with it is extremely inclusive, which is in line with the requirements of the world's rhythm.
After finishing the meal, Jieying's huge body became even deeper, with complex starlight inside, as if a starry sky had really been born inside.
For the beast, eating means growth. The current Jieying is definitely more powerful, but... it makes no difference to Cang. Anyway, he has never seen Jieying fight before.
It’s a pity that all the advanced rhythms in Ruins No. 8 came from the Star God and the Princess. Now these two beings have been taken away by Yu Cang. It won’t be long before only the simplest mechanical rhythms will remain here.
Those training areas can still be used, but after experiencing them a few times, there is nothing new about them.
Yu Cang now knew that the strange encryption method in the ruins was "Industrial Spirit." Now that the princess was with him, he could use all the equipment here, but because they were damaged, there was actually nothing very useful.
The princess promised Yu Cang that when she had enough spirit particles, she would help him build a similar training area in his home. So after Yu Cang experienced it once, he lost interest.
"Are you guys going to Old Ning's place?" Qiu Zhong said with a click of his tongue. "Xiao Cang, Old Ning hasn't actively invited anyone into his courtyard in a long, long time... You better be careful. This person isn't Ren Zheng. Don't piss him off."
"Don't worry, I know my limits." Yu Cang smiled without saying anything.
"That's good." Qiu nodded, and suddenly said, "By the way... Jiangshan has been calling me a lot these past few days, wanting me to talk to you and invite you to visit 'Fengyue Cangjian' in the Holy City."
"Feng Yue Cangjian?" Yu Cang was stunned. "Um... I'm really sorry, I really don't have any intention of going to school anywhere else..."
When I was in Yujiang, Jiangshan mentioned this matter to me, on the condition that I go to Shengdu University for an exchange for one year.
A year, what a waste of time.
"Well, it's a different time now." Qiu Zhong smiled mysteriously, "Old Jiang has already applied for a place in the secret realm, and it's waiting for you to use it - there are no conditions, and there is no need to spend time going to Shengdu University for exchange."
"Oh?" Yu Cang raised his brows.
Fengyue Cangjian is a rare mythical secret realm. If that is the case... it is indeed worth a visit.
"Okay, what's the time?"
"There's no rush. At the end of the year, when the seasons change, something strange will happen in Fengyue Cang. Old Jiang wants you to go at that time."
Yu Cang nodded.
That's the end of the year... about a month away. It's just in time for me to go back to the ancient capital to finish up the Battle Club's affairs, and then go to the Holy City during the winter break.
