Chapter 730 The Third Party
"...It's mine," Yu Cang said slowly.
"But……"
Gu Jieshuang seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.
Yu Cang's words did not dispel Gu Jieshuang's doubts. Instead, the worry in her eyes became even heavier.
What she felt just now... was definitely not an illusion.
Although it felt very much like the pressure released by Yu Cang himself, she always had a premonition that a greater existence was casting its gaze here from afar.
"Jieshuang, don't worry." Yu Cang patted Gu Jieshuang's shoulder, a smile on his face. "I'm not so arrogant that I didn't notice the danger... Just now, you sensed the possible presence of a higher-level being from those pressures, right?"
Gu Jieshuang: "Yes... Is it really okay?"
"Don't worry, I know what's going on." Yu Cang said, "Let's not even consider whether this higher-ranking being exists. Even if he does, he should be a friend, not an enemy."
“…”
"Believe me."
Looking at Yu Cang's eyes, Gu Jieshuang finally nodded seriously: "I believe you, Boss... Well, if you need me, be sure to tell me!"
"I won't be polite with you."
Yu Cang smiled.
He understood Gu Jieshuang's concerns.
After all, they are still too weak and are far from enough in front of the real strong ones under the starry sky.
Before, the possibility that an Emperor Star might revive in their hearts was enough to make them nervous, and the pressure just now seemed to be no less than that of another Emperor Star. How could this not make people worried?
But this time is different.
Yu Cang once again recalled the feeling when the soul card was made.
Originally, when he made this soul card, he had the idea of verifying his conjecture, so he did not rely on any external forces, but only relied on his own strength to complete the drawing of this soul card.
Successfully drawing the Ye Lai soul card means giving the Ye Lai soul true and free authority.
This sounds very similar to the method of summoning souls in other worlds, but it is not.
In systems other than soul cards, if you want to summon a soul, you must first rename it to its true name, and then use materials from this world to reshape its body. Only in this way can the soul exist in the world as a summoned creature.
However, in essence, it is still a temporary authority. Once the namer dies, Ye Lai must return to Chaos within a short period of time, otherwise he will incur the malice of the world... and Ye Lai will not be able to leave that small world.
But now, Ye Lai is no longer bound to Yu Cang. If Yu Cang dies unexpectedly, as long as someone picks up Ye Lai's soul card, they can summon Ye Lai out again... He already has permanent authority and can exist forever on Blue Star, or even in the Star Realm, as a soul card!
Based on what Yu Cang learned from La and Xingchen, this is something that no civilization can currently do.
Theoretically, if Yu Cang tried to do this, he would be maliciously expelled by the world. In serious cases, Yu Cang himself would become a soul and wander in chaos, but this did not happen, and he succeeded.
This is enough to show that even without the Emperor Star and the Entry Recorder, I... am still special.
However, the subtle feeling of "being watched" at that moment when the soul card was made was indeed beyond his expectations.
"Yunqing, do some tests first. I'll let Yelai work with you... Jieshuang, let's talk later. I need some time to think."
"Yeah, okay!"
…
Yu Cang came to the corner of the testing ground. He calmed himself down and began to sort out his memories.
Although he didn't know who was looking at him, there might be some clues.
He thought of the second time he met Di Xing face to face.
At that time, He brought Himself to the third level of the world of consciousness in His dream, which is the world of the future. And after He left... He was spied on by a god.
That time was extremely dangerous. The power cast by the fourth-level gods instantly affected the space measured in light years. If it weren't for his good luck, Yu Cang might have died under the gaze of the gods.
However, after surviving the disaster, Yu Cang also discovered many suspicious points.
First of all, it's a matter of probability. As Xingchen said, gods occasionally spy on the world, but the probability is very low. Yu Cang encountered them the first time he entered the world, which is like getting full life with ten consecutive hits in a certain mobile game. It is almost impossible.
When such a low-probability event occurs suddenly, we must examine whether it is accidental... This peeping is most likely directed at Yu Cang!
At that time, Yu Cang had doubted the Emperor Star Selector and the entry recorder - but he had never doubted himself!
Another suspicious point...is that the destructive power of this god's peeping is not right.
At the moment when Yu Cang was about to be caught up, something that looked like a black hole suddenly appeared and "covered" Yu Cang's retreat... There was a high probability that it was the Star Armory of the Nameless Empire.
According to La's description, the Star Armory was said to be 100% able to resist the prying eyes of gods, otherwise the empire would not be so confident in leaving such a precious thing docked in the world all year round.
But at that time, this Star Armory was like dough, and was torn into pieces almost without any resistance... You know, not every existence is qualified to peek from the fourth level, and all the gods who peek must be beyond mythology!
But the god's performance that time seemed to be completely not on the same level as transcending mythology... In Cang's imagination, the only one who could possess such power was probably Emperor Xing.
And one last question.
When that god appeared, Emperor Xing had just left not long ago...but the god's prying was completely directed at him.
Although he was only one of the chosen ones by Emperor Star, he was also important. Emperor Star could not have brought Yu Cang here knowing that he would encounter danger on the third floor. At worst, he could not leave first and let Yu Cang stay there alone.
Moreover, when danger came later, Emperor Xing did not take any action... Logically speaking, he should not have gone far at that time.
So... is there a possibility that Dixing knows the existence of that god and is certain that the god will not harm him?
Just now, when Yu Cang made the Night Lai Soul Card, although the unknown gaze only existed for a moment, Yu Cang felt inexplicably familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere... He searched through his memories for a long time, and the one that fits the description best is probably the time when the gods peeped at him!
At this moment, Yu Cang had a premonition in his heart... Perhaps, his uniqueness came from this existence!
Yu Cang supported his knees with his elbows, his eyes looking at the floor, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Dixing said that he was special... but he didn't say why.
He also said that he would be the last one to be chosen... because the remaining time was not enough for a chosen one to grow.
Now it seems that Emperor Star must have concealed a lot...
Yu Cang's eyes narrowed slightly.
And... now that I think about it, the last time we met in the world, Di Xing ended his last words very abruptly, as if he hadn't finished talking before he disappeared.
At that time, he just thought that Emperor Xing was unwilling to answer his questions, but combined with the above speculation... could it be that Emperor Xing was unwilling to meet the unknown god?
It seems that the positions of Emperor Star and that of the god are not consistent, and are even completely opposite. It is possible that they are hostile to each other.
The reason why he was able to grant permanent authority to Ye Lai so smoothly was also closely related to this person... Perhaps, it was because this person "allowed" him that he was qualified to grant the authority!
Yu Cang rubbed his knuckles.
Could it be that... the Emperor Star's choice to be buried on the Blue Star is also related to this... Ten thousand years ago, did He predict that such an existence would choose Himself ten thousand years later?
Could it be that the Chosen Ones have been constantly changing for thousands of years just to find me? That's why I'm the "last" one?
However, that existence's "layout" ability seems to be a little bit better than that of God Star... He has grown up and has hardly sensed the influence of that existence.
As his thoughts raced, Yu Cang had already made up his mind. However, it seemed as if there were still more unknowns.
In fact, compared to Emperor Star, Yu Cang actually has a better impression of this unknown god.
He must have his own plans, but in that brief contact just now, Yu Cang sensed an attitude...similar to "cooperation", not like Di Xing's domineering and arrogant attitude.
Moreover, just now, He did not directly grant power like the Emperor Star, but only "allowed" Himself to become Ye Lai.
He seemed to be very sensible, not interfering with him at all, and didn't say anything about taking over his body. It was as if... he had just submitted the application, and that person came out to take a look and approved it if there was no problem.
This is actually very terrifying when you think about it carefully.
Granting permanent world authority can be done just by "permission", so who is "He"? Is it the "Star Realm" itself?
……etc.
Yu Cang was suddenly stunned.
The astral plane itself...
He seemed to have thought of something, his eyes kept fluctuating, and then he shook his head and sighed.
Probably... not really. At least, there's no evidence.
When He first appeared on the third level, He was too...emotional, as if He was in extreme rage. Yu Cang was very reluctant to believe that such a being could represent the astral realm.
…still too weak.
So that there is no choice at all and no way to know the truth.
Yu Cang looked at his palm, then slowly clenched his fist.
Become stronger!
He is now at level seven, and if he is promoted one step further, he will become a guardian of the country.
This step is not difficult for him now. He just needs to find his own fully connected soul card.
Therefore, you must first find all six summoning methods!
As long as the conditions are met... then breaking through the myth will not be difficult for him.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang stood up and took a deep breath.
However...some truths may not necessarily be obtained until one becomes stronger.
It just requires some "phrase-telling" skills.
Yu Cang made up his mind, and then walked towards the field.
It would be useless for Gu Jieshuang to know these things, so he did not choose to tell them just now. In fact, he did not intend to tell anyone. At most, he would mention it to Chao Ci and Xingchen. After all, these were just guesses.
"Yunqing, is the data testing complete?"
"The basic data has been collected." Lin Yunqing nodded as he looked at the computer screen. "Then we just need to do a few more experiments..."
"Forget about those."
Yu Cang waved his hand gently, and the floor under Ye Lai's feet collapsed to reveal a deep purple soul-card-shaped hole. Ye Lai immediately understood, nodded to Yu Cang, and dived into it.
"Ye Lai's abilities don't require experimentation to acquire." Yu Cang said, "I'll be here this morning. I'm leaving now."
Lin Yunqing was stunned: "Huh? But..."
She was a little uncomfortable.
Although Yu Cang is not a research maniac like her, once he enters the laboratory, he will never leave easily.
Why are you leaving early before noon today?
Yu Cang smiled and said, "I have to go back and cook... Jie Shuang, come home with me."
"Eh?" Gu Jieshuang was stunned. "Me, me?"
"Of course, my parents missed you so much and talked about you a lot last night."
"Okay then..." Although Gu Jieshuang was caught off guard, he still took a deep breath and showed an expression of being ready to die on his face.
Come on...get used to it soon!
"That's right."
Yu Cang suddenly took out a stack of soul cards from his arms and placed them on the computer desk in front of Lin Yunqing.
"These are some soul cards I made at the True Dragon's Death Land... They're quite useful. You can dispose of them."
At the beginning, after the Night Dragon Emperor was created, the energy of the Youhuang Heaven was still continuously supplied, so in order to consume the energy, Yu Cang implanted all the mythological and legendary entries.
Although no more mythical soul cards were born, many legendary soul cards were made... and there were also some powerful soul cards among them.
"Then let's go."
Yu Cang took Gu Jieshuang's hand and left the laboratory.
Lin Yunqing was still standing there in a daze.
Senior... go home and cook?
This, this, this...is this still the senior?
After a long time, she sighed helplessly.
Then, he turned his gaze to the soul card left by Yu Cang.
She then saw that the first soul card had this written on it:
…
Soul Card Name: Su Sheng
Category: Spell Card
Quality: Heirloom
Attributes: None
ability:
[Resurrection of the Dead]: Summon a soul card on cooldown within the range to our side of the field.
…
yeah?
Lin Yunqing blinked.
Such a simple effect…but so powerful.
"None" means it can be added to any deck, while [Resurrection of the Dead] is simple and powerful, allowing you to summon monsters from your own graveyard or overpower the opponent's graveyard's big brother. Furthermore, this ability has no activation conditions and can be used anytime, anywhere!
It seems that the soul energy consumption is not high.
Very versatile soul card.
Lin Yunqing's eyes lit up, and then he couldn't wait to pick up the soul cards and began to flip through them one by one.
They are all...very versatile soul cards...
…
Yu Cang returned to the card-making room and began to prepare lunch.
In the afternoon, he went out for a walk, and then in the evening he took Gu Jieshuang home on time to cook.
It was as if all those unnecessary things had been completely left behind.
This kind of day continued for another day.
Every time she came to Yu Cang's house to "eat for free", Gu Jieshuang gradually got used to living with Yu Shuhong and his wife, and at least she didn't feel so cramped anymore.
The next night.
At the dinner table, Yu Shuhong, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
"Xiao Cang—you still have things to do, right? How can you cook for us at home every day!"
Hearing this, Yu Cang paused.
Then I heard Yu Shuhong's tone become serious.
"Go quickly—you'll have plenty of time to spend with us once everything is over. There's no need to rush."
Yu Cang was silent.
Then he nodded slowly.
"I see."
