Card Creator: My Cards Unlimited Chain

Chapter 317 Becoming a star!

 In front of the towering top

 The pressure surrounding them weakened slightly, Jiang Shan and Zhong Sheng raised their heads and looked at the sky.

 After seeing that Gu Jieshuang had risen into the clouds, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

 “This kid has good talent.” Jiang Shan nodded.

As long as you reach Yunshang and officially enter Feng Yue Cangjian, it means that you have passed the first trial and can get the soul card.

As for what you encounter after arriving on the cloud, whether it's a battle or anything else, you can do whatever you want. Even if you fail, it won't affect you - you just can't enter the second level.

Although it seems that the process is just to stand on the top of a towering mountain and then wait to ascend to the sky, this step alone has troubled many people for countless years.

 Even the ancient emperors were not able to reach the clouds.

In this process, you have to face the great horror between life and death, the terrible feeling that all parts of your body are constantly failing, and the psychological suggestion that you can return to the original state as long as you give up. The two feelings confront each other, and ordinary people may Just gave up.

Although the process of ascension will continue to hurt your body, no matter how serious the damage is, as long as you turn back, you will return to the towering summit intact. Although there is this premise, the feeling of death is too real, and few people can bear it.

“You should be able to see the frost coming down in a little while,” Jiang Shan said.

Among Feng Yue Cangjian's three trials, the first level is the simplest - the limit of the physical body, which can be reached by relying solely on one's own will.

 But as you go up, the difficulty suddenly rises.

Jiang Shan has lived in the Holy Capital for so many years and has met many people who participated in the Feng Yue Cangjian Trial, but he has only met Zhong Sheng who can enter the second level.

 The difficulty gap between the second floor and the first floor is even greater than the difficulty gap between the third floor and the second floor - at least judging from the comparison of the number of people.

Since the founding of the Yan Kingdom, people who have climbed to the first level have been like crucian carp crossing a river, while only a dozen or so people have been able to enter the second level. Among them, there are Ye Yan and Di Changan who can reach the third level.

Jiang Shandao: "When you go to the sky, you have to experience three levels of limits. The first level is the limit of the physical body. Those who pass this level will return home after realizing their true self."

 Broken and then established, this process of ascending to heaven is the process of "breaking". When returning from the clouds, it will naturally "establish".

During this process, the body of those who pass the test will be reshaped under the guidance of their own will, gaining a large amount of enhancements and a higher upper limit. The will itself will also become stronger under the influence of Feng Yue Cangjian's power.

Jiangshan looked back and found that Yu Cang was still concentrating with his eyes closed, so he turned around without disturbing him.

 “You should be able to see Jie Shuang back in a moment… huh?”

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Shan suddenly hummed, raised his head suddenly, and looked at the sky.

 “That’s not right.” Zhong Sheng looked surprised, “Jieshuang...is she still going up?”

 …

 Above the clouds

 Gu Jieshuang's body seemed to be suspended on the clouds as if there was no force. There were more and more cracks on her body, and it became more unstable. There were even fragments falling off from it and dissipating into powder in the wind.

 She gradually faded the smile on her face and looked in front of her.

 The clouds keep rising, and the huge monsters they gather keep growing!

Roar!

A loud roar suddenly exploded from the clouds, and countless pieces of ice were shaken out of the body with the roar. Then, the giant cloud suddenly rushed out, bringing waves of clouds and mist towards Gu Jieshuang!

 Gu Jieshuang frowned and raised his hand, as if he wanted to fight, but after thinking for a moment, he still chose to retreat.

 It’s not that she doesn’t want to fight, it’s just that her current body doesn’t allow it.

 If nothing else, soul energy alone is not enough.

Now, my mental pressure has also reached the limit, and the soul energy production rate is zero. In other words... now, I only have this tube of soul energy in the soul energy well to use, and there will be no more.

You only have one tube of soul energy and your body is in such a broken state. You can't beat this big guy no matter how you think about it, right?

 Can you really pass this level...

 Gu Jieshuang didn't know that he had passed the first level now, so he was thinking seriously.

Phew!

Huge claws made of clouds passed by. Gu Jieshuang tried his best to mobilize his weak body, but he could barely avoid it.

　　Bang!

The blow was too close, and the strong wind caused a large part of Gu Jieshuang's body to suddenly break into pieces, turning into powder and dispersing in the clouds.

 She frowned.

 It's bad. I subconsciously kept this close distance during the battle, forgetting that my body is too fragile now...

She moved and accelerated suddenly, avoiding the attack while quickly pulling away.

This movement caused almost the entire left arm to be shattered by the wind.

On the opposite side, the giant creature that threw the punch seemed to have some of the clouds gathered on it falling off due to the violent movement.

 Gu Jieshuang's eyes narrowed.

  “Are you trying for endurance?”

The clouds on your body will be blown away during the movement of the clouds, so as long as you keep your body intact before the clouds completely disperse, you should be fine.

 Thinking of this, she immediately reached out her hand.

She has to fight. If she doesn't fight anymore, when her right arm is broken, she won't be able to hold the sword even if she wants to.

 “Jie’e Mei!”

Although summoning the dusty holy sword to cover a sword will be stronger, she doesn't know if her current body can withstand the power of the sword, not to mention that the mental pressure is already full, and there is no gap. She can only use the sword that does not take up the mental pressure. Untie Emei.

 Click!

The ice-crystal-like long sword appeared in his hand. For a moment, Gu Jieshuang felt that his body suddenly became stable, and it seemed that his broken body had stabilized a lot.

 Jie Emei is trying her best to eliminate the negative state in her body, but her current body is not simply a "negative state", and the sword is also powerless.

 However, it’s always good to be more stable, at least it won’t break when touched.

Roar!

The cloud roared loudly, and countless more clouds broke away from the body. It rushed towards him with a fierce momentum.

But at this moment, Gu Jieshuang already had a long sword in her hand, and was not afraid at all. After turning around to let go of the frontal attack, she slashed through Yun Tuan's body with one slash of her sword, bringing out countless clouds.

 “This feeling…”

 With a sword stroke, Gu Jieshuang seemed to notice something.

 The inside of the cloud is very cold and hard.

With some unknown thought passing through his mind, Gu Jieshuang turned his head and started fighting fiercely with the clouds again.

 For a moment, the fallen clouds and body fragments were flying everywhere, but Gu Jieshuang was more skilled after all. She had to adapt to this kind of thing with no fighting skills for a while, and she was already able to do it with ease.

Roar!

Yun Tuan slapped the air again. At this time, Gu Jieshuang, who had been waiting for a long time to confirm that this flaw was not a trap, immediately launched an attack and stabbed out the Jie'e Mei in his hand!

Ding!

The long sword pierced, as if it had pierced something hard. Gu Jieshuang's eyes narrowed and he shouted:

 “Disperse!”

　　Bang!

The long sword trembled. Gu Jieshuang's sword directly scattered half of the clouds. Along with the clouds, there were countless pieces of ice.

 Under the clouds, a monster made purely of ice appeared in front of Gu Jieshuang.

This monster has a pair of wings and a bird's head, just like a birdman made of solid ice.

At this moment, Gu Jieshuang's sword was pointed directly at its chest, and the shock caused by his skill directly created a shallow pit with some cracks scattered around it.

Gu Jieshuang raised her brows, but before she could take a closer look, the monster waved its hand and attacked, so she could only retreat quickly.

Roar!

The monster whose clouds were scattered seemed to be furious. It roared and ran madly. The extremely cold temperature began to spread, and the sea of ​​clouds it passed was directly frozen into ice.

Gu Jieshuang frowned, but she started to retreat without drawing her sword.

The moment this monster appeared, his body, which had been stabilized by Jie Emei, started to become unstable again.

 The cold air on the monster's body seems to be stimulating some kind of power in its body, accelerating the decline of its body!

 Gu Jieshuang stepped back and looked at her hand. The debris was falling off faster and faster. Soon, her body would probably dissipate directly.

"…I see."

 Gu Jieshuang raised his head and looked at the monster in front of him.

 “Are you the curse buried in my bloodline?”

 The meaning of his own existence was originally just to serve as fuel for the "bloodline empire".

Being swallowed by the curse is your final fate. The monster in front of you may be your mutated version after the blood conflict, but now...

  “It’s already past tense.”

 Gu Jieshuang raised the Jie'e Mei in her hand high, and in an instant, cold light burst out!

Countless rays of light overflowed from the cracks on her body, and the speed of her body's fragmentation accelerated in an instant!

 But this time, it was not her body that was destroyed because she could not support it, but Gu Jieshuang himself who was speeding up the process.

"I will not burn because of you, nor will I end because of you."

A strong warning came from her soul. She knew that as long as this sword was swung down, all the bodies belonging to her would be irreversibly gone, and there would be no possibility of coming back.

 What is more despairing than experiencing the terror of life and death? It is to take the initiative to enter the embrace of death.

 When he ascended to the first level, Feng Yue Cangjian adjusted all the parameters of Gu Jieshuang's body to critical limits, but now, it was Gu Jieshuang himself who took the initiative to send everything into final decline.

 Even the bravest person can't help but tremble inside before being sent to the guillotine, and even lose his voice. But now, Gu Jieshuang is becoming his own executioner, and more than once.

Physical energy, strength, lifespan, senses, all the attributes of this body must be manually sent to the end one by one by Gu Jieshuang, and it must be done quickly, before it naturally disintegrates.

In this constant torrent of destruction, even a moment of hesitation will be too late.

　　Bang!

The light exploded in an instant. At this moment, Gu Jieshuang's body could no longer support it. Starting from his feet, it turned into countless fragments and disintegrated, and then collapsed into a little bit of starlight flowing upward!

 “I use myself as the material to synchronize!”

Hum!

The body turned into starlight, and the starlight condensed into a ring and rushed into Jie'e's eyebrows. The green halos were layered from bottom to top. Until Gu Jieshuang only had one arm and one eye left, the long sword was finally wielded. fall.

 “The cold sky will be cut off!”

brush!

As soon as the sword came out, the color of the sea of ​​clouds suddenly changed, and the cold air passed by. The monster that rushed towards Gu Jieshuang was frozen in the air in the blink of an eye, completely losing its ability to fight.

This sword, just like when he faced Chang Kong that day, was a single strike that only used the legendary equipment Kahan Tianzhan. One strike was enough.



 The remaining body of Gu Jieshuang was also eliminated, but the long sword of Jie'emei was still suspended in the air.

 She is not dead. The body collapsed, and the purest soul, spirit, and will were exposed. Under the special rules of Feng Yue Cangjian, they did not dissipate, but condensed into a hazy translucent form.

 Jie'emei was summoned from Gu Jieshuang's instinct, and it can actually exist at this moment.

“...It turns out that the conditions for clearing the level are this.”

Before Feng Yue Cangjian drags your body into destruction, take the initiative to cross the limit, seize the power born in this moment, and defeat the monster in front of you - this is the way to enter the second level.

This process is not simple. Feng Yue Cangjian weakened almost all the senses, but only the fear of death was infinitely amplified by it.

　　Bang!

Before the body was completely eliminated, a drop of blood suddenly appeared, and then exploded directly. Then, icy blue energy spurted out from the blood, seeming to form a gorgeous ice bird in the air.

Gu Jieshuang was stunned, and she called out tentatively: "Auntie?"

no respond.

 This blue energy ice bird floats quietly behind him. It only exists as its own power and has no other meaning.

 Gu Jieshuang suddenly understood.

Grandma...may have been pushed out by Feng Yue Cangjian's power.

"Then..." Gu Jieshuang raised his head, "Continue."

Hum!

Infinite roaring sounds suddenly trembled in Gu Jieshuang's soul, and the pressure he felt suddenly strengthened. During this, Gu Jieshuang began to continue to rise, flying towards the higher level of the sea of ​​clouds.

 “Cough…” Gu Jieshuang coughed lightly.

This pressure is getting more and more terrifying.

But fortunately, my ability to bear it has become stronger.

Now, although I have lost the support of my body, I have also lost the restraints of my body. The most obvious change is that without the soul energy well, there is no limit to the process of converting mental power into soul energy. The endless flow of soul energy Squeezed out by the "coercion" from heaven, it fills every corner of the now invisible body.

 “Something’s wrong…”

 Gu Jieshuang frowned.

Although it feels great to have almost endless soul energy...but my mental power is limited after all! If you grab and ask for it so infinitely, your mental power will soon bottom out!

　What to do…

 Spirit is the basis of human existence. Once the spiritual power is completely drained, the person will become an empty shell... Now that he has no body, the result of draining him will be direct dissipation!

Destroyed into ashes, nothing exists...

 A sense of fear suddenly filled Gu Jieshuang's mind. This time, such fear was difficult to suppress with willpower alone.

 Because, in the process of ascension, even the will itself is rapidly approaching its limit and dissipating!

"-ah!"

Her perception fell into darkness again, and Gu Jieshuang could barely survive in the sea of ​​fear. Her mind kept telling her to give up quickly, because after a while, her willpower reached its limit and she could no longer think of anything else. The action of "giving up" itself is no longer possible, and can only remain in fear forever until it dissipates.

From the outside, it looks like an icy blue bird floating up and down along with a vague humanoid figure. During the process, the ice bird often cries out in pain.

As it lifted off, the huge pressure continued to compress the body, compressing the messy mess of spirit, will, etc. into something more like Gu Jieshuang's body.

 “How to persevere…”

 Gu Jieshuang felt that she had no way to survive.

This time, there is no revolving door in front of you. After all, memory is constantly approaching its limit, and there is no time to play back the past scenes for you.

 The difficulty of the second trial is much higher than the first.

etc…

 Suddenly something unusual appeared in Gu Jieshuang's perception.

It was tent after tent of light.

She quickly looked to the left and right, and countless hazy shapes seemed to appear in the darkness. They were all flying towards the sky just like herself.

“Are they... people who have entered Feng Yue Cangjian before?”

 The figures of many "predecessors" are heading towards the sky, forming the only light in this dark space. In the upward torrent of these souls, Gu Jieshuang was also driven upward, and seemed...a little more relaxed.

 However, the figures of those "seniors" made Gu Jieshuang's heart tremble.

Forget those human figures...why are there so many huge beasts?

Among them, the one at the top and the fastest is even bigger than imagined, and this giant beast also has color, red and hot, like a flame - the other souls only have a faint gleam, no light at all. color.

The giant beast had a single horn on its head, bright red scales on its body, and a dragon tail trailing behind it. It looked like the legendary unicorn.

 Gu Jieshuang's heart was shaken, but she seemed to understand something.

In the second trial, everyone is in a state of losing their bodies. In the process of going up, their own will is exposed without any cover. However, at this time, the will is undergoing great pressure, so leaving a little trace is too Normal.

Now, what Gu Jieshuang sees are those traces.

 But... Even if she is driven by these traces of will, the upward process becomes a little easier, but her limit will eventually be reached, and she may no longer be able to reach the second layer of clouds...

 Gu Jieshuang smiled bitterly and shook his head.

This second trial is indeed as difficult as the information says. I am afraid that I will still...

 “Afterlife?”

 Suddenly, a voice came into perception.

Gu Jieshuang was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and saw a glowing figure coming to her side.

This figure actually has color on his body. He is wearing an ancient robe and is a middle-aged man.

 I don’t know why, but when seeing his image, Gu Jieshuang always looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

As the middle-aged man got closer, Gu Jieshuang felt that the pain she was suffering had quietly eased a lot. She didn't know if it was an illusion or not.

"Who are you…?"

“I’m Zhongqiu, maybe you’ve heard of my name.” The visitor smiled softly.

"Zhong...Qiu?" Gu Jieshuang's eyes widened.

 …

 In front of the towering top.

 Jiang Shan and Zhong Sheng looked at the sky.

brush!

 A ray of light flew down from the sky and landed at Yu Cang's feet.

Jiang Shan stepped forward and took a look - it turned out to be a soul card, and it was a legendary soul card!

"Ancient... Hantian's will?" Jiang Shan scratched his head, "Why did this soul card appear here?"

Zhong Sheng understood clearly: "There seems to be a will in this soul card... It was popped up by Feng Yue Cangjian."

“That’s it.” Jiang Shan smiled and shook his head.

On the ground, the soul card kept trembling. For some reason, Jiang Shan always felt that... the soul card must be cursing now.

 Suddenly.

　　Whoosh!

 The soul card flew up under the influence of an inexplicable force, and Yu Cang also opened his eyes at this time.

“Auntie, why are you down here?” Yu Cang asked with a smile.

At the same time, he threw out an equipment card at random and let the aunt possess her.

　　"Mad, this is too much!" As soon as she appeared, my aunt yelled loudly, "Auntie, I have a good sleep, who the **** threw me out? I can't even treat my own blood?"

"Grandma, calm down." Yu Cang couldn't laugh or cry, "Jie Shuang is conducting a trial. This is good for her. Please bear with it."

“…Hmph.” My aunt snorted coldly, “What are you trying to do…huh? Feng Yue Cangjian?”

She was silent for a moment, and the arrogance on her body suddenly disappeared.

"Yeah...understood, call me when the frost comes, and I'll have a rest first."

 After saying that, he retracted the soul card directly and stopped moving.

Yu Cang blinked.

 Auntie, are you...scared?

Could it be possible that she had suffered a lot in Feng Yue Cangjian?

“Xiao Cang.” Jiang Shan quickly came up and asked, “How are you adjusting to your condition?”

 “Very good.” Yu Cang smiled, “I feel better than ever before.”

 “Really?” Jiang Shan was doubtful.

 But he couldn't feel any royal aura from Yu Cang's eyes now... The feeling just now was completely gone! It looks almost the same as usual.

Maybe you are comforting the old man...

"Of course it's true." Yu Cang said, "Okay, Mr. Jiang, don't mention me. How is Jieshuang doing now?"

"...She." Jiang Shan raised his head and looked at the clouds, "She... is still going up. Maybe she can reach the second level..."

"It's hard to say." Zhong Sheng shook his head, "I have entered the second level before, and the test there... is difficult for young people to survive. I only successfully entered the second level when I came here for the third time. Second floor.”

Feng Yue Cangjian is not a secret realm that can only be entered once, but can be entered multiple times.

 However, after entering too many times, the effect will not be good.

There are two kinds of rewards in this secret realm. One is the soul card as a reward, and the other is the strengthened body and spirit in the composition of breaking and standing.

It may not be obvious now, but the process of physical body reshaping will lay a solid foundation for you. After level 6, the extreme mental pressure you can withstand will receive a considerable bonus.

 The soul card reward is only available when entering Feng Yue Cangjian for the first time. As for reshaping, it is actually useless after the second time.

Had Zhong Sheng not been sure of entering the second level, the association would not have allowed him to enter three times.

"I don't think so." Jiang Shan shook his head, and then said, "The second level of the three limits is the spiritual limit. Those who pass this level will receive the destiny of heaven and return!"

 After reaching the second level, the spirit and will have reached the limit. At this time, the "true self-will" no longer has the ability to guide repair.

At this time, what will be restored for you will be the power of rules from Feng Yue Cangjian itself - this is the power of heaven and earth.
