[Evil Karma of Killing]: Sacrifice one of your organs and a soul card master to summon "Evil Karma Lord".
…
Soul Card Name: Evil Karma
Category: Summon Card
Quality: Taboo
Attribute: Dark
Race: Humanoid
ability:
[His Evil Karma]: Depending on the sacrificed organs and the level of the Soul Card Master, the Evil Karma Lord has different abilities.
[Shell of Myself]: While this Soul Card remains connected, the user will not die. Each time a Bad Karma Lord is summoned, a layer of [Karma] is left on this Soul Card. When [Karma] reaches eleven layers, a pseudo-personality disorder is triggered.
…
"That Evil Karma Killing Spell is a very classic card..." Cheng Mingye paused before saying, "Well, it should be called a 'Ritual Spell Card' now."
Yu Cang raised his head and turned his gaze from the information to Cheng Mingye: "What was it called before?"
"Before? There were all sorts of names for it. After all, this summoning method was first circulated among card banners. They didn't have an association, and there was no unified naming standard." Cheng Mingye smiled. "Before the Star Rank was created, the association didn't think this method could be used on regular soul cards, so there was no name... Now that you've come up with the ritual, naturally we'll follow yours."
Yu Cang nodded to show his understanding.
He looked at the glass wall in front of him.
A figure was sitting in the middle of the room behind the wall.
This was a middle-aged man, his skin as rough as dark porcelain, with numerous patterns carved into it, giving it a sinister look.
At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, his hands folded in front of his lower abdomen, and a scarlet forbidden card was floating above his palms.
Yu Cang was a little confused: "That banned card is..."
If his perception was correct, that figure should be the "Evil Karma Lord".
But after the banned card is summoned, shouldn't the carrier card itself be temporarily shattered... How can it still float in the palm of the hand?
Yu Cang could see clearly that the suspended banned card was the Evil Karma Lord, not the ritual spell card Evil Karma Killing Technique.
Cheng Mingye glanced at it and said, "Well... that banned card originally belonged to Evil Karma Lord, but now... the person inside is the banned card master who created Evil Karma Lord."
Zhao Yang raised his head: "What do you mean?"
"You've read the information, right?" Cheng Mingye explained. "Every time Evil Karma Lord summons, he needs a living person and one of his organs as a sacrifice. This sacrifice of an organ is irreversible. Because of [My Body], he can still live well even if he loses a few organs, but...
"Once you've sacrificed your organs eleven times, that is... once you've sacrificed all your internal organs and become nothing more than a shell... the Evil Karma Lord you summon this time will no longer be banned."
A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Cheng Mingye's mouth.
"All of your organs are within the body of the Evil Karma Lord. Even your own survival depends on the Evil Karma Lord... So who is the true 'living person'? I don't need to explain further."
After hearing this explanation, Zhao Yang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
This card banner...was replaced by his own banned card?
This is simply a horror story!
He couldn't help but think of his own "ghost".
That ugly thing... If it replaces me, he might as well die.
Yu Cang also felt a little uneasy, but when he saw the look on Evil Karma Lord's face, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through his mind.
But the inspiration was fleeting, and when he wanted to explore it carefully, it had disappeared.
His brows furrowed slightly and he began to think.
What is it...
Meanwhile, Cheng Mingye continued to explain, "The Soul Card of Evil Karma Lord also follows the ritual's 'equivalence' principle. It's different from ordinary forbidden cards... The consciousness of other forbidden cards mostly comes from the raw materials... The consciousness of the materials is crushed and pieced together to form the consciousness of the Soul Card."
"However, when using the Evil Karma Killing Technique, the consciousness of the living being sacrificed...is completely shattered. The consciousness of the Evil Karma Lord actually comes from the Card Banner himself."
"oh?"
Yu Cang seemed to have grasped something, but there were still few clues.
He looked up at Cheng Mingye and asked, "What do you mean, did the card banner split his consciousness?"
"That's not the case." Cheng Mingye shook his head. "Just as you summarized, there's an 'equivalence' relationship between the Evil Karma Lord and the Card Banner's true body. It's actually a false shell created by the Card Banner that's equal to himself.
"And the process of sacrificing organs... is the process of making this false body increasingly real. Finally, when the Evil Karma Lord is filled with real organs, he becomes a true 'Card Banner'. The two sides of the equivalent formula... are therefore reversed.
"So, Evil Karma's pseudo-personality disorder...is to replace his own master."
Yu Cang's eyes lit up.
He knew what this inspiration was!
"You guys chat first." Yu Cang said this and hurriedly walked past. On the way, he took out a blank soul card and a formation writing pen from his arms.
Behind them, Cheng Mingye and Zhao Yang looked at each other.
"...Okay, it seems like my nephew has some inspiration." Cheng Mingye shrugged. "What about you, Xiaoyang? In this situation, don't you have the urge to make some soul cards?"
Zhao Yang: “…”
What impulse can there be?
Did you also perform a ceremony to strengthen your kidneys?
He glanced at Yu Cang who had already entered the state and gritted his teeth secretly.
Is this the legendary genius's sudden enlightenment?
Damn it, I was outdone by him again!
Zhao Yang has actually experienced this kind of enlightenment many times.
After all, he was already a rare genius, so this kind of experience was nothing new to him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have created something legendary at the age of fourteen.
However, this thing is a bit metaphysical after all, and he has no way of controlling when he will have an epiphany.
Damn it!
I wish I could be in front of Yu Cang and suddenly have a burst of inspiration and make a soul card directly!
I really want to show off in front of Yu Cang!
But why did his talent fail in front of Yu Cang... He had experienced sudden enlightenment many times in the past!
Cheng Mingye smiled. "Since Yu Cang has an idea... then let's wait a while. Xiaoyang, you can look at the information first. The case of Evil Karma Zun is a classic. It will allow you to understand the value of your 'Awakening Summoning' in the creation of banned cards."
…
Not much time passed.
A soul card has appeared in Yu Cang's hand.
Soul Card Name: True Name Awakening Ceremony
Category: Spell Card
Quality: None
Attributes: None
ability:
[True Name Awakening]: Speak your true name, title, and praise to summon "my name".
…
Success!
Yu Cang let out a long breath.
This is the “I” that represents the ritual call!
Before, he could never find the idea for the ritual self, but today when he saw the Evil Karma Lord, he finally got the inspiration!
He immediately stood up and used this soul card with a wave of his hand.
Bang!
The soul card turned into fragments and shattered at Yu Cang's fingertips. At the same time, Yu Cang suddenly said: "My name is Yu Cang!"
Buzz!
The light gathered in front of Yu Cang, and finally condensed into a figure... Both in appearance and clothing, it was exactly the same as Yu Cang!
However, this figure had his eyes closed.
In Yu Cang's eyes, the information about my name immediately appeared:
…
Soul Card Name: My Name is Me
Category: Summon Card
Quality: Ritual
Attributes: None
Race: Humanoid
Star level: 12/? ?
ability:
[My Name is You]: After activation, the user will be teleported to the position of My Name, or the position of the user and My Name will be exchanged.
…
handsome!
The introduction of My Name is Me is the same as the other soul cards in the Me series.
But the star level has reached a terrifying 12!
Yu Cang vaguely knew in his heart... this number should be the limit of the power he could control under normal conditions.
The "I" in my name represents my peak and most extreme state!
This soul card also follows the premise that ritual summoning must be equivalent, but the conditions for achieving equivalence are more transcendent - calling out the name is enough to achieve it!
The inspiration for this soul card comes from Evil Karma Lord.
Like Evil Karma Lord, Yu Cang also assumed an individual that was exactly equal to himself, but he naturally would not use things like sacrificing organs and living people to materialize this individual. He chose the true and righteous way - his real name.
This is an equivalence based on real names!
However, the difficulty of doing this is definitely much more difficult than that of the Evil Karma Lord.
The True Name Awakening Ceremony seems to require only shouting out one's own name, but this step is not as simple as imagined. You must fully understand the meaning contained in your True Name, the will it represents, and everything you have experienced in order to unleash the power of your True Name.
Moreover, there is a difference in the level of real names.
This superiority...to some extent, is related to the "legendary degree".
Only when you do various legendary deeds and create various legends, will your name gradually become powerful. Otherwise, even if you use this true name to awaken your consciousness, it may not necessarily summon the self of my name.
There is definitely a difference between the God of War Zhang Wei and the social animal Zhang Wei.
If the power in your True Name is not enough, or if your understanding of your True Name is not deep enough... then the soul energy consumption of this "True Name Awakening Ritual" will be absolutely outrageous, and there will be absolutely no possibility of summoning it.
Yu Cang has come a long way and now meets the summoning conditions of this soul card.
In this way, all the "I"s of summoning methods have been collected... No, theoretically speaking, there are also higher-level summoning methods.
But Yu Cang really had no idea about this summoning method.
Logically speaking, the Higher-Level Summoning has been around for so many years. If there really was an "I", there would be no need for Yu Cang at all, as someone else would have definitely created it.
There is still no result until now. Maybe this summoning method cannot summon "me".
Yu Cang was happy, but Cheng Mingye and Zhao Yang were shocked.
What's going on?
Zhao Yang looked at Yu Cang with a strange expression.
Why are you suddenly calling my name...
Are you so childish?
He knows that you had an epiphany in front of others and that you are awesome, but there is no need to be so high-profile.
Zhao Yang has also had sudden realizations many times!
Cheng Mingye looked at the two Yu Cangs in front of him with an interested look on his face.
"Did you make it?"
"Um."
"Let me see what kind of soul card can make you so excited, nephew."
"Tsk." Zhao Yang curled his lips.
But he still followed Cheng Mingye and came to Yu Cang, looking at him eagerly.
…
after a while.
"So, it's like two-way teleportation that can be used at any time?" Cheng Mingye rubbed his chin. "Hmm...it's really practical. It can be regarded as a life-saving soul card."
The self of my name does not have an infinite control distance like the entangled self.
But Cheng Mingye did not forget that Yu Cang still has me as the king!
Just let my King Self find a safe place to hide before taking risks. Once in danger, immediately activate [Protect Me] to summon my Name Self, and then [My Name is You] to teleport away directly.
Very convenient.
The self of the king and the self of my name complement each other. Not to mention Yu Cang's level, even the level of defending the country may be useful!
As expected of my nephew, he can create a soul card of this level any time he gets inspired.
"Is this the 'me' summoned by the ritual?" Zhao Yang frowned slightly, looking a little disgusted. "Although it's useful...but isn't this usage too childish?"
The summoning word is my own name or something... How embarrassing!
Zhao Yang snorted.
Then he said, "Yu Cang, can you teach me? ... I don't want to use it, I just want to study it... Really not! Don't look at me like that!"
Yu Cang smiled lightly and snapped his fingers, turning the self of my name into soul card fragments and merging into the body of the king of my self.
Just like before, after the ritual self was successfully summoned, the king self was also synchronized at the same time.
As the number of "I"s increases, I, Wang Zhi, become more and more practical.
By merging any three of my selves with the entangled self, I can unconditionally transform into other selves to deal with various situations.
Very convenient.
"Okay, you can try it... Logically speaking, the name 'Zhao Yang' should be enough to summon my name."
After all, he is a phenomenal genius.
There is also... the fall of a genius, who then practices hard for many years to plan his comeback. This kind of plot is very dangerous no matter where it is placed.
Zhao Yang was anxious: "I really didn't want to use it myself!"
"Okay, okay, I get it." Yu Cang comforted.
The self that I am called has already been made.
But Yu Cang knew... Cheng Mingye's evaluation of this soul card was still too low.
My Name Is Only Teleporting? Of course not!
The reason why the "My Name" summoned by Yu Cang at this time only has one ability is because Yu Cang only called out a simple name!
You know, during the True Name Awakening Ceremony, you can shout out titles and praises!
Wait until he accumulates some "legendary degrees" and gets some powerful titles... When his real name is called out, it will not be as simple as the basic version.
Yu Cang licked his lips, anticipation flashing in his eyes.
However... in his perception, if something other than the real name was added, the increase in soul energy consumption would be a little difficult to accept.
The balance of equivalence shows signs of being overturned.
Is it true that what I have done so far is not enough... or does it take time to become a "legend"?
Forget it, I’m only level five now, there’s no point thinking about these things.
Immediately, Yu Cang gathered his thoughts and taught Zhao Yang and Cheng Mingye how to perform the True Name Awakening Ceremony.
There's nothing to hide.
…
the next day
Suddenly, news came from outside the treatment center that Ye Chengming wanted to see Yu Cang.
Come to think of it...it should be about God's descent.
Yu Cang put on his clothes and hurriedly left the treatment center.
