BXBX NOVEL Chapter 214 - The Lu Ming Who Was Shunned Everyday
In the room.
Lu Ming was contemplating his ‘Original Card Solo Cultivation Trip Grand Plan’...
Eh?
The Original Card, which was fervently absorbing energy, suddenly sensed a gush of unfriendly thoughts. It shivered but came to its senses very soon. Oh, it seemed that the python was targeting it...
It did not matter!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
It continued to glow!
It continued to absorb!
Python?
Hehe.
Who cares about you?!
...
The python which had been infusing energy numerous times finally realized something.
It was not because the room could not be tempered!
It was not because this room was rare!
It was because... something was stealing its energy!
Damn it!
Ss——
The python was enraged.
It had painstakingly planned for this moment. Since it had been awakened, it had been lying low until it finally began to execute its plan. Yet, someone actually dared to wreck it?
No.
It was not a human!
Something that could absorb its energy... must be a spirit body!
Furthermore, it was the same type of spirit body as it was!
Ss——
Ss——
The python’s eyes were filled with greed.
Since the spirit body could steal its energy, it could certainly devour it...
Perhaps...
After devouring it, its powers would increase exponentially! It would then integrate with the building and become stronger! It might even turn into a legendary seven-star!
Ss——
Ss——
The python transformed into a flash of light and disappeared.
...
In the room.
Lu Ming was in the midst of cultivating when he was suddenly alarmed.
Shush!
He ducked at a lightning speed.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
A beam of cold light emerged from the pipes of the sink and blasted the original spot where Lu Ming stood. In the pool of water in the sink, the python’s body gradually condensed into a dark fog.
It was slowly emerging from the sink pipes...
Bit by bit, that dark fog continued to appear...
The dark fog shook gently, gradually growing in size and turning into the humongous figure of a python in the room. It had a sinister and chilling look in its eyes as it observed Lu Ming and...
the glowing Original Card!
A five-star peak aura was dissipating constantly!!!
Lu Ming had an odd expression on his face.
Living creatures like snakes were really amazing...
It could wriggle out from any kind of hole.
He very much wanted to look more serious to express his respect for a five-star peak spirit body. However, he could not bring himself to do so.
After all... He personally witnessed that long thing constantly shaking and growing bigger...
→_→
It was hard to explain in a few words.
He even had a strange hunch that if he were to catch this python, shove it into a machine, cut it into pieces and manufacture it into adult love toys for sale... He would definitely earn big bucks!
Ss——
Ss——
The python swept its sinister and cold gaze across Lu Ming. As a spirit body, it could acutely sense the malicious intent in Lu Ming. This actually sent shudders through his entire body...
This human...
Ss——
The python spewed out a beam of sinister aura and attacked Lu Ming.
Before Lu Ming could retaliate, the Original Card flew to him in that instant.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
It rushed into that gush of aura directly.
It was shaking all over.
“Come on! Again!”
The Original Card was shivering emotionally.
Lu Ming was speechless.
The python was at a loss for words.
This spirit body...
Attacking with sinister aura was its most common move. However, it was merely one of its many tactics. Since this means was not effective...
Bang!
Bang!
Horrifying energy condensed.
The python’s body gradually turned into ice crystals and slowly emerged. It actually emerged through the condensation.
That was right.
When this python was in its full form, it could even conquer the entire building. Why would it be afraid of Lu Ming?!
It did not even need to attack with the sinister and cold aura.
Just a mere physical attack... was enough.
Click!
Click!
Its humongous figure actually emerged from the water pipes.
Afterward...
At this point in time...
Lu Ming dashed forward.... and closed the water pipe.
Shush!
The entire world suddenly quietened down.
That surging powers suddenly stopped. The python cast a cold and aloof gaze on Lu Ming, its eyes filled with contempt. Ludicrous! What kind of dumb act was that?!
Would it help?
It was a dignified five-star spirit body...
Crash!
The closed water pipe suddenly exploded.
There.
The entire pipe was exposed.
Terrifying energy emerged.
After contemplating, Lu Ming simply shoved the Original Card into it and blocked the pipe directly. That horrifying gush of energy poured into Original Card all at once...
“Crap! That’s too much!
I’m full. Let me catch my breath...” the Original Card hollered furiously.
Damn it! Who would be able to take it me being shoved into them in this way?!
Eh?
The python’s heart trembled.
After all, it was a spirit body with intelligence and not one of those brainless ones. Therefore, at the sight of the Original Card’s state, it instantly realized that the Original Card could not withstand that much energy!
Since this was the case...
If it were to overwhelm it with energy...
Bang!
You want it, right?
I’ll give it to you!
A sinister and cold smile emerged at corners of the python’s mouth...
Bang!
Bang!
A massive amount of sinister aura surged into the Original Card.
“Crap! Are you mad?!
That’s too much! I can’t take it anymore! A-argh!”
The Original Card was terrified.
Buzz—
Buzz—
Lights kept flashing on the Original Card.
Even the lightning cracks trembled slightly under such horrifying energy. Judging from this, it could not withstand the attack of such a scale at all!
“Go and die!”
The python’s transmitted its sinister and chilling thoughts.
It could clearly sense that the Original Card was already on the verge of erupting.
Hence...
It was infusing energy rampantly!
Bang!
Bang!
Horrifying energy surged into it.
One second!
Two seconds!
Three seconds!
...
After thirty seconds, the Original Card was not destroyed yet!
Eh?
The python was somewhat confused.
Something was not right!
It was very clear about the Original Card’s body strength and how powerful the sinister aura was. Even if the Original Card could absorb it indefinitely, it would definitely die given the scale of the earlier infusion!
How could this be...
Shush!
It suddenly turned and glanced at the Original Card.
It was then shocked to discover that the Original Card, who was still terrified earlier, was now enjoying the impact of the energy at this moment...
The python had a dumbstruck expression.
Crap?
You’ve adapted to it that quickly?!
To hell with it!
This was tenfold speed and tenfold energy, how could it possibly adapt to it?!
The python completely could not figure it out.
However...
This did not hinder it from stopping its attacks.
“Huh?”
The Original Card looked dazed. “Don’t stop.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Hehe.
This chap had a look that deserved a beating. He did not know who it resembled...
It was too wretched.
Why did the Original Card manage to withstand the attacks!
The reason was simple.
All the sinister aura had rushed to the Sea of Consciousness....
At this moment...
In the depths of the Sea of Consciousness.
A massive amount of sinister aura was spreading!
Just as the Original Card could not take it anymore, an idea came to Lu Ming’s mind. He moved the excess energy in the Original Card to the Sea of Consciousness.
Well...
It was perfect!
Hence...
The Original Card absorbed as fast as it could and dumped all the excess energy to the Sea of Consciousness. It could then maintain its lightning absorption speed and also stock up the aura at the same time.
Nothing could be compared to such feelings of pleasure!
Afterward...
It became like that.
The python’s expression was extremely ugly.
Although it did not know what happened, this did not stop it from wanting to kill someone.
The loss of the massive amount of sinister aura had caused its strength to decrease significantly. If those five-star cultivators were to dash in at this moment, it might not be able to escape...
Damn it!
It had to destroy the two before its eyes!
Click!
Click!
The pipes suddenly exploded.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Beams of cold lights flashed.
A bone-chilling cold could be felt coming from the pipes in the walls of the room, the heating pipes beneath the feet and every place in the room. The python was generating a full outburst of attacks at this moment!
Crash!
The entire room suddenly exploded.
The floor was collapsing!
Lu Ming fell from the fourth floor to the...
third floor!
Second floor!
Ground floor!
Each time Lu Ming fell by one floor, the ground would collapse. Even the basement exploded and Lu Ming fell right to the bottom at one go!
At the bottom of the lowest floor, bone-chilling ice needles appeared.
Lu Ming’s pupils constricted.
Crap...
Could these be used in this way?!
Whoosh!
He threw out a Demolition Card.
Bang!
The bulls trampled across the room.
It was ineffective!
The seemingly terrifying bulls dissipated immediately upon touching the ice needles! The gap in energy level was too huge and the Demolition Card did not work!
What to do?
As Lu Ming dropped from the sky, countless ideas flashed across his mind at lightning speed.
Bulls Card?
Burial Mound Card?
Sword Aura Card?
All these did not seem feasible.
These seemed to be five-star ice needles and he could not fight them head-on!
What about the four-star Cloud Shuttle Card?
That would not do as well?
Two-star Cloud Shuttle Card?
He had a hunch that he would crash into an instant death!
He was very clear how that five-star beast died indoors the last time...
The Cloud Shuttle Card... was not reliable!
A-argh! I have said before that I needed an Escape Card, right?!
Lu Ming was helpless.
He had been making preparations for this. However, he could not help it that the progress was slow and all the Escape Cards eventually became other cards as a result...
What could he do about it?
Right now...
Whoosh!
Lu Ming was approaching the ice needles soon.
He would fight them head-on then!
Lu Ming gritted his teeth.
He felt that, given his current three-star peak physique, it should not be a problem to endure them. As long as he prevented them from injuring his vital body parts, he would at most lose a lot of blood...
He would not die!
However...
At this moment.
Swoosh!
A beam of cold light flashed.
Lu Ming felt a rush of light force flying beneath his feet. He was actually floating in the air.
Eh?
Pleasantly surprised, Lu Ming glanced at the Original Card beneath his feet.
This thing!
It could actually carry him now?!
...
Whoosh!
The Original Card was dancing in the air.
It carried Lu Ming and landed on the ground gradually.
At this very moment, in the depths of the Sea of Consciousness, the massive amount of sinister aura stored inside was thoroughly depleted in those few minutes.
Oh.
It turned out that it was depleting that energy...
Lu Ming felt a little regretful.
He had thought that he could really execute Card Kinesis Flight in the future!
“You’re heavier than a pig!”
The Original Card transmitted its thoughts sullenly.
It was very depressed.
This was true.
The energy that could initially be used to cultivate for a long time was gone after flying for a while...
This was too extravagant!
How heavy was this Lu Ming guy, exactly?
...
Outside the prohibited area.
Those people had been watching the tempering progress of the building.
Ninety-nine percent.
Ninety-nine percent.
Ninety-eight percent.
Ninety-seven percent.
...
Everyone looked dumbstruck.
Was this a joke?!
You not only did not increase but also decreased?!
What was happening?
Bang!
Bang!
Earth-shattering and booming sounds seemed to be coming from the building.
Something had happened!
Everyone’s heart trembled.
“Do you want to go and take a look?”
Someone squinted their eyes.
“Wait!”
The person beside him stopped him. “Don’t forget those four-stars.”
Alright.
Don’t forget those four-stars.
Almost all those four-star cultivators who had entered earlier had turned into cannon fodders!
This python spirit body...
It was extremely insidious!
What if this was the trap that it had set to trick them?
Therefore...
They looked on coldly.
They were only waiting!
...
Ninety-three percent.
Ninety-two percent.
Ninety-one percent.
...
Everyone felt their liver hurting as they watched on.
Inside.
What the hell happened?
Nobody knew!
However...
Just at this moment, when everyone almost could not hold on any longer, the energy that had reduced to eighty-eight percent actually began to increase again!
It was increasing!
Everyone was full of anticipation. They hoped that it would not come to a standstill this time.
...
Right then...
In the basement.
Ss——
Ss——
The cold and sinister aura was still present.
Although he had gotten away from the moment of crisis, Lu Ming did not let down his guard. He had already taken out the Moonlight Card which he had never used before!
In terms of four-star...
This should be the only one, right?!
As for the effect...
Only God knew!
“Come on!”
Lu Ming closed his eyes.
Although his life was not in danger now, if he were to suffer from a hemorrhage or something...
His balls hurt at the thought of it, okay?!
However...
What surprised them at this moment was that... At this point in time, beams of lights flashed and the aura formed a barrier above them. Afterward...
It was sealed!
The entire building had been integrated into one body!
Lu Ming, who was in the basement garage.... had been thrown out just like that!
Eh?
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Crap!
Was there such a tactic?!
Therefore, the seemingly fearsome attack earlier was for this purpose? If I can’t kill you, I can also throw you out, right?!
It was really...
Lu Ming lamented listlessly.
Were spirit bodies nowadays that outstanding?
What to do?
He and the Original Card glanced at and faced each other.
“A building without a basement garage lacks a soul.”
Lu Ming gave a deep sigh.
It was a pity...
The python above did not care about him at all. It would rather sacrifice a tempered basement garage than to let Lu Ming remain in the building!
These two shameless guys only knew how to steal its energy...
Alright.
Lu Ming sighed.
Energy...
Lu Ming could vaguely sense that it had already reached nine thousand points!
His speed was terrifying!
Buzz—
Lights flashed.
The cold and sinister aura was spreading and the python was tempering the building rapidly.
Lu Ming tried to absorb some energy from the building, only to discover that the entire building’s aura had been shrouded in a layer of energy and he could not absorb it directly!
Hehe.
Lu Ming pursed his lips. This python was too petty!
“Can you cultivate here?”
He glanced at the Original Card.
The Original Card expressed that it could.
After all, the basement garage had already been tempered.
It was full of sinister aura!
Even if it did not feel as great as the rush of energy earlier, the cultivation speed was much faster. Therefore, the Original Card started to absorb the surrounding energy fervently without any hesitation...
Shush!
Shush!
Energy surged.
Very soon...
The basement’s energy had been absorbed completely.
The energy level was nine thousand three hundred and twenty points.
...
“There’s still a lot more to go.”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
The building above them was shaking. Without Lu Ming’s interference, the python tempered at lightning speed and, within a few minutes, it had progressed from ninety-nine percent to a hundred percent!
Buzz—
Lights flashed.
The tempering was successful!
The python integrated with the building instantly!
Integration!
Bang!
A gush of horrifying energy vibrated in the air.
Six-star!
Done!
...
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Beams of aura rose to the sky!
Those five-star cultivators who had long been waiting finally made a move and dashed towards the building, aiming and casting their separation equipment at it...
Buzz—
Buzz—
There was an outburst of boundless energy!
Right then...
Everyone was waiting for the moment of separation between the building and spirit body to capture it. Just at this moment, a dazzling glow flickered above the top of the building...
Afterward...
Buzz—
A tail appeared below the building.
It was running away.
Everyone was dumbstruck.
Crap!
T-the building had grown a tail and was running away?!
Was this a joke?!
Where was the foundation?
Where was the basement garage?!
They instinctively glanced towards the direction that the building was heading to, only to discover... Oh, the tempering of the building actually did not involve the basement!
To hell with it!
“Hurry! Chase it!”
“Go! Go! Go!”
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
One by one, the cultivators went after the building.
Confused, a five-star cultivator stared at the direction in which the building was fleeing.
Sigh.
“Master clearly said that this python’s plan is to lure out and fool the four-stars, followed by the five-stars and then annihilate everyone before integrating with the building to attain seven-star level.
He even said this python is one-in-a-ten-thousand year encounter.
Subduing it is equivalent to subduing a seven-star!
Spat!
It’s not true!
A building without a tempered foundation is incomplete. How can it possibly have any potential? I don’t know how long this python will take to rise to its powers!
It seems that...
Master, you have made a mistake in your deduction again...”
...
