In the suburbs.

Sadness was etched on Lu Ming face as he looked at the big brother in front of him.

The Burial Mound Warrior was very strong and burly.

With his ice blue aura, he looked more like real, like human and not a blue jelly. He was very powerful and could compete with a three-star fearsome beast!

Lu Ming was very satisfied with all of this.

The only thing that he was dissatisfied with was… Why did he only have half a body?!

Where could they place the flag?!

Where could they build the burial mound?!

He could only stay put in one place!

It could not move!

Old brother, are you playing the game of ‘Tower Defense’?

Or ‘Plants vs. Zombies’?!

You’re a Burial Mound Warrior! You’re an attacker and not the those things that goes ‘biubiubiu’ and shoot out some unknown substance from the mouth! Have you misunderstood yourself?

“Sigh.”

Lu Ming gave a deep sigh.

You are a three-star top-notch card!

Are you able to explain to this to those ‘silicon brothers’ before your era?!

At the very least, they can run errands and move about. Why are your legs broken? Half your body is stuck in the burial mound?!

This is not scientific!

If three-star was so frugal on resources…

What about four-star?

Would there only be a silicon stick left?

Hahahaha.

Lu Ming was expressionless.

“Big brother, do you know anything else?”

Lu Ming lowered his head and looked at him.

As half of his body was under the ground, the Burial Mound Warrior’s head could only see a little more of what was below his waist.

He was very short!

The Burial Mound Warrior had a puzzled expression.

Obviously…

Beside some basic attack, defense and fighting orders, he did not understand other things. Seemingly, his intelligence was worse than before.

“Alright.”

Lu Ming clutched his head.

After the Burial Mound Card went through optimization, everything else was gone! Only the most basic violent attack and combat power were left!

“I don’t know if I can dig it out.”

Lu Ming was a little curious.

Hence, he moved his hands and wanted to dig. However, he realized that he could not do so at all.

“Well…

Can you dig yourself out?”

Lu Ming said in a serious manner.

The Burial Mound Warrior was confused.

Obviously…

He did not understand what ‘dig himself out’ meant.

“Attack the ground below here,”

Lu Ming ordered.

The Burial Mound Warrior understood this time. He then attacked the ground. His body trembled, as if he had suffered grave injuries.

“Stop!”

Lu Ming had some understanding now.

He took a closer look at the ground below the Burial Mound Warrior. It was full of cracks, seemingly already fused into one body with the Burial Mound Warrior. It was impossible to dig it out by normal means!

Perhaps…

This was part of his body.

“Forget it. Let’s take a look at how long it will last.”

Lu Ming analyzed.

After ten minutes, the Burial Mound Warrior dissipated into energy and the flag was also gone with the wind.

Only the crumbled ground was left.

“The timing is fine.”

Lu Ming had a realization in his heart.

Although it had various flaws, this was still a strong and powerful three-star top-notch card!

Perhaps…

He should treat it as a Defense Card!

With this card, at the very least, he could stop a three-star cultivator!

“Right now…

I am considered half a three-star too.”

Lu Ming felt more confident now.

Although there were some accidents, everything was still alright.

“I should go back,” said Lu Ming.

It was just that…

At this moment.

From the direction of the suburbs, some fog was rapidly spreading. The sky, which was originally bright and clear, actually turned misty due to the sudden engulfment by the fog.

Bang!

Groups of fearsome beasts were dashing across the land.

“Did something happen?”

Lu Ming looked to a distance and his eyes instantly squinted.

Buzz—

His cell phone suddenly vibrated.

“My respected cultivators, good day. A small fog has appeared in the northern part of the suburbs. The fearsome beasts were frightened. In order to assure your safety, please leave the wilderness as soon as possible…”

Hehe.

Lu Ming pursed his lips.

To hell with the fog!

Did your family’s fog look like that?

This almost matched the haze in the capital of his past life!

However…

Lu Ming was not interested in what exactly had happened.

He was an idle and boring person.

As a Card Creator, Lu Ming was very clear about his own standing. At one sight, he knew that this was a dangerous matter and he would certainly not get involved!

Retreat!

Lu Ming put away his stuff and prepared to leave.

It was just that…

At this very moment, something surged and converged at the deepest part of the fog.

There seemed to be something…

Sparkling.

This was…

Lu Ming was startled.

“Brother Cat?”

Lu Ming entered his Sea of Consciousness. The black cat that was always in a deep slumber was already awake. Its gaze seemed to be transmigrating space and landing in a certain place.

Well…

Lu Ming had already seen it just now.

This was the scene transmitted to him by the black cat!

This black cat, which was more idle than him, actually started to move?

It wanted that thing?

It was just that…

Lu Ming frowned.

That fog was growing rapidly. Something must have happened.

Also, those announcements… Under normal circumstances, to Lu Ming, that meant – We are going to fight now. All unrelated individuals, please leave as soon as possible. We don’t want to cause unintentional injuries!

Was he going to go in at this point in time?

Lu Ming had hunch that he would be sending his head…

And as if he had bought himself six pairs of shoes that increased his speed.

“Can you protect me? Are you sure that there is no danger?” Lu Ming asked.

The black cat nodded, its little eyes full of pride, seemingly not seeing anyone else as a threat.

Lu Ming was speechless.

It was the time to make a choice.

First option, trust Brother Cat and dash into the fog decisively. Grab the item that he wanted and leave. Second option, leave this place immediately.

“Let me think…”

Lu Ming clutched his head.

Well…

This was the first time that Brother Cat had made a request.

It could very likely break the ice between the two of them. Additionally, he was able to progress so quickly in his ability now mostly owing to the Lighting Original Card.

In addition…

Brother Cat promised to protect him. He should be safe and fine.

Alright.

Lu Ming sighed.

This was the first time that the black cat asked him for something. Could he not satisfy it? Could he still consider himself a man if he could not even satisfy a cat?

He would do it!

He would give it a shot!

“Wait for a while”

Lu Ming made his decision.

Under the black cat’s uncanny gaze, Lu Ming squatted on the hilltop, took out the Card Creating Pen and created a Burial Mound Card on the spot.

Did he look down that much on its promise?

“Cough… Just in case… Just in case…”

Looking at the dissatisfied look in the black cat’s eyes, Little Lu Ming gave a wry laugh.

Although the black cat had promised him, this concerned his personal safety and he had to be more prepared. Erm… There should not be anymore problem now!

One three-star Burial Mound Card!

One four-star Swordsman Card!

In theory, these were enough to dominate Qing Ming City.

Let’s go!

Lu Ming took a deep breath.

Mustering the courage akin to entering the execution ground, he stepped into the black fog.

The thought transmitted to him by black cat was like following directions. He traversed in the black fog like a shadow. In the vagueness, other cultivators appeared.

Lu Ming moved quietly and no one noticed him.

This fog… seemed to possess the powerful effect and energy of a Visual Bulwark.

“I’m almost there!”

Lu Ming calculated the time in his heart.

He came here to test the card this time and carried a heavy Card Release Machine in his backpack. It was certainly not an easy feat to travel such a distance.

The fog spread even more.

His visibility worsened.

They seemed to have arrived at the deepest part of the fog.

Bang!

Bang!

He could hear deafening sounds in the surroundings. However, due to the Energy Visual Bulwark, there was no other commotion, and no one knew what energy there was!

However, the sounds…

Lu Ming was felt fear and trepidation.

Thankfully…

Under the black cat’s guidance, he avoided everyone quietly.

Well…

They had arrived.

Lu Ming seemed to have reached the inside of a cave situated in a hill.

There was already very little fog now. Lu Ming found the sparkling item on a stone table. It was inside a wooden box.

It was actually a small bell.

It was a little old.

A little ancient…

“Is this the thing…”

Lu Ming was curious.

He wanted to pick it up.

Shush!

That bell actually disappeared in the flash of a moment.

When Lu Ming recovered from his senses, the box was already empty.

Alright!

Lu Ming entered his Sea of Consciousness to take a look.

True enough, that small bell had already appeared in Brother Cat’s hands.

Seemingly noticing the lascivious look in Lu Ming’s eyes, the black cat thought of the last time that it was tricked. Hence, it very cleverly wore the bell on its neck.

Lu Ming was speechless.

Cat… Cat bell?

It was going to wear?!

What kind of appalling action was this?

Forget it.

Lu Ming shook his head.

Since he had already gotten hold of the item, he should retreat quickly.

Constant booming noises could be heard from outside. It was very dangerous. At the thought of this, Lu Ming hurried and left the cave. However, at this moment, a figure walked towards him.

In the fog.

A strong and powerful figure appeared.

Their shocking energy could actually permeate the thick fog and affect this place!

It was horrifying!

“Damn it!”

Lu Ming’s expression changed drastically.

Four-star!

It was a four-star powerful figure!

Damn it!

Lu Ming secretly cursed.

He had already taken out the Swordsman Card and was holding it in his hands. Staring at that figure, he would shoot the card at him without any hesitation the moment he entered.

This was his only chance!

Secret ambush!

He was coming!

Three!

Two!

One!

Lu Ming’s was prepared to cast his Swordsman Card.

At this moment, in the air, a familiar little paw appeared before him.

“Brother Cat is taking action!”

Lu Ming felt more at ease.

He was a little curious. He did not know whether Brother Cat could beat a four-star cultivator.

It was just that…

Just as he thought that Brother Cat would take action…

Bam!

That little paw stretched out gently and directly pressed on Lu Ming’s head.

Buzz—

A surge of energy dissipated.

Struck by darkness, Lu Ming fainted immediately.

…

At this very moment…

The strong and powerful figure stepped into the cave.

He furrowed his brows. It was strange… Clearly, he had sensed an odd aura here earlier…

Was it an illusion?

He then moved forward to take a look. The item in the wooden box was already gone.

“Damn you, bastards!”

That man was enraged.

A horrible aura engulfed the place.

Bang!

Bang!

Deafening noises could be heard coming from outside.

“Hehe.”

His expression was menacing. “Who dares to steal my belongings? You’re courting death!”
