Chapter 358: The Sword Card Masters Are Invincible!
The World of Darkness and Shadows.
At the community.
The wardens looked in horror at the collapsed world in front of them.
It was too terrifying!
Who was so terrifyingly powerful they were capable of doing that? They felt fear deep down inside of them, shivering as they watched the constant rising of the mushroom clouds.
They knew very well that if the mushroom cloud landed here...
They would surely die!
“Hopefully, the lord can resolve it.”
The wardens were worried.
“This is a showdown between the veterans.”
Another warden sighed.
This was a high level battle. They had no way to interfere.
“What about the students who were arrested?”
One person asked in a low voice.
“Study them as soon as possible!”
One of the wardens gritted his teeth and said, “Before our lord left, he ordered that no one is to be let go! He said that these outsiders might be the reason behind the appearance of the power of light! So, in any case, we must study them to understand exactly how they arrived here!”
“Understood.”
Everyone looked solemn.
This might be the only thing that they could do.
So...
They picked up the endoscope once again and began the experiment that had been previously interrupted.
That student was stunned.
Again?!
“It’s alright, you will feel better after you get used to it.”
One student comforted him in his Shadow Combat Suit.
That student was stunned.
Why should I get used to this?!
“Just bear with it for a while. In fact, it is not that painful,” one student said, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Shush!
The students swept their gaze over him.
“Have you had an endoscopy before?” a student asked.
“Absolutely not!” The other hurried to deny. “I have never had one before.”
The rest of the students were silent.
If he had not had an endoscopy before, why would he know so much about it?
At this very moment...
The employees were ready.
“Old Wu, save me.”
That student asked for help.
It was Wu Hongfei who had told him to make a move.
Wu Hongfei was teary-eyed.
He was powerless to defend himself, let alone help him. He could only comfort him sorrowfully. “Rest assured, we will join you shortly after.”
The students were speechless.
These did not sound like words of comfort, damn it!
Shush!
The employee walked towards them.
He pressed the student onto the bed, did the preparation work, and aligned the endoscope.
“Old Gao!”
That student panicked, turning to look at Gao Tianlang. “Didn’t you say that Zhao Yunshan would be here?”
Gao Tianlang smiled bitterly.
To be honest, he did not believe that Zhao Yunshan would be there. The reason why he asked was because he did not believe Wu Hongfei who was full of lies...
Now it seemed that...
He sighed.
“I told you he won’t be coming.”
Wu Hongfei pursed his lips. “All of you are too simple-minded. I am not being boastful, but if Zhao Yunshan arrives, I will swallow the endoscope.”
At this very moment...
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
The door of the community collapsed, a group of shadows rushed in, flooding the community, led by none other than Zhao Yunshan!
“Are you all right?”
Zhao Yunshan swept his indifferent gaze across the students.
“Good, good!”
The students were ecstatic.
He was there!
He was indeed there!
Haha, Zhao Yunshan was there to save them! The student who was pressed down on the bed and was about to be penetrated with the endoscope was even more delighted. Haha, he was saved!
However...
Unexpectedly...
Perhaps because there were too many people attacking him, the person who held the endoscope trembled and the endoscope that was prepped...
Ah—
There was a miserable cry.
A black and bold font appeared on top of the student’s head...
The students mourned for him.
Afterward...
The student gritted his teeth and pulled out the endoscope, wearing a heroic expression on his face. He passed it to Wu Hongfei. “Aren’t you going to eat it?”
Wu Hongfei was speechless.
Why didn’t he die?
...
“All of you are courting death!”
The warden was furious.
They had no right to intervene with the battle between the big shots. However, these users did not pose a threat to them!
They were the wardens!
They were GMs[1]!
In this world, excluding the big shots, they were the next highest in the hierarchy!
So...
The few wardens present used their black lightning.
Bang!
Bang!
Many lightnings landed and some of them were struck to death instantly.
However...
Zhao Yunshan and the group still looked at them indifferently.
Black lightning?
It was ridiculous!
After experiencing the previous latency storm, they knew that there was a limit in the black lightning that could be used in a certain region! They did not have the resources to kill many people at one time!
Bang!
Bang!
The black lightning thinned out very quickly.
Not only that.
What was worse was that the wardens jointly developed a new rule, setting a new upper limit, hence the amount of black lightning was further reduced...
So...
They watched helplessly as the black lightning kept lessening and its color became lighter and lighter. Eventually, they could not use it anymore...
The wardens were speechless.
“That was it?”
Zhao Yunshan sneered coldly.
“Let’s go!”
He waved his hands.
Bang!
The shadow army flooded the community.
“Scoundrel!
“I will delete your account!”
One warden was furious,
Therefore, he pulled out information regarding the shadow right in front of him. He found his identification and deleted him directly, killing him on the spot!
It was a pity...
He had just deleted one shadow and he was being flooded by an endless number of shadows...
Drowned...
Yes, so what if the GM could delete accounts?
That would do in the moment.
But, what about afterward?
There was no way for them to kill many shadows at once.
In order to prevent an unhappy GM from exacting revenge on society, this world did not allow them to delete accounts in batches. Therefore, they were drowned by the shadows...
Ah...
Many miserable screams could be heard.
The angry students took the tools that were prepared in advance in the lab and used them on the wardens. The shouts became even more miserable.
“Go!”
Zhao Yunshan did not waste time but hurried to save the students and left with them.
So...
It was easy come easy go for the shadow army. After they left the community, all that was left was a total mess as well as the wardens who grabbed their bottoms, crying in pain...
Very soon...
Support from other communities arrived. They were shocked to see the scene.
It...
It was too miserable!
“We must get revenge!”
“I want revenge,” one warden said through quaking teeth.
That was humiliation!
That was plain humiliation!
Since they entered the World of Darkness and Shadows, they had never been so humiliated!
They were the wardens!
They led an almost eternal life!
However...
Why did things turn out like that?
The wardens broke out in tears.
“They won’t be able to leave!”
“The World of Darkness and Shadows has been sealed!”
“So what if they run away?”
“When the battle between the big shots is over, victory will be ours! I may not be able to deal with the big shot who released the power of light, but those shadow users... Haha. I will find each and every one of them, lock them up, and use a variety of rules to punish them!”
The wardens hated them to the core.
Yes.
This was their right!
For average users, they had the final say!
Right now...
All they needed to do was to wait for the battle between the big shots to end!
Of course.
It would not be too long.
It was said that eight-star and nine-star big shots had been dispatched! It was time for this battle to end. They were looking forward to the outcome.
“Don’t worry.”
The warden who was there to help them patted him on the shoulder.
There was no escape!
The whole word had been locked down. No one could escape!
...
At this very moment...
Zhao Yunshan left the community with the students.
“Is the shield activated?”
“Yes, the wardens won’t be able to catch us for the time being.”
Some users activated the shield skillfully.
“That’s good.”
Zhao Yunshan finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Finally...
He had saved the students.
“Are you okay?”
Zhao Yunshan asked out of concern.
“Thank you.”
The students were very grateful.
They knew that they owed Zhao Yunshan a favor!
However...
When they were about to leave, they soon realized a problem. They had lost the connection with their bodies. They could not return for the time being!!!
“What is happening?”
The students were shocked.
Previously, they thought that they were only being arrested and shielded!
“The connection to the World of Darkness and Shadows has long been broken.”
Zhao Yunshan sounded very calm.
“Then what should we do?”
The students panicked.
Didn’t this mean it would be useless even if they died?!
“Wait,” Zhao Yunshan said calmly, “Our bodies have yet to disappear. This means that the school didn’t turn off the life nourishing cabin, and there is still a chance for us! We can only wait now.”
“Wait for death?”
One student was desperate.
“No.”
Zhao Yunshan looked into the distance. “Wait for the real battle to end.”
The students followed his gaze and realized that there were flashing lights in the far distance. The terrifying auras sent shivers down their spine!
“That is...”
Gao Tianlang was shocked.
The power of light!
Why would there be the power of light here?
“This is my senior at the Sword Card Master Association,” Zhao Yunshan said lightly.
“Sword Card Master association...”
“Senior...”
The students remembered that by heart.
In such a dangerous time, when the school could not intervene, the senior of the Sword Card Master Association was there instead. Didn’t that mean that the Sword Card Master Association was very powerful?!
This association...
The students made up their mind to go take a look if there was a chance.
Of course.
The premise was they had to survive!
“I don’t think it will be this easy...”
Wu Hongfei was worried. He seemed to have something to say.
“Hey.”
A student leaned in, taking out an endoscope skillfully. “Aren’t you going to eat it?”
Wu Hongfei was speechless.
This is crazy!
Why did he bring it with him?!
Bang!
Bang!
A distance away.
They could see the beam of light rising into the sky.
However...
The frequency of the rising beam of light had decreased. The students were worried about whether the senior of the Sword Card Master Association would be able to hold off their enemies!?
After all...
He had to face the entire World of Darkness and Shadows!
That was right!
Seven-stars! Eight-stars! And even nine-stars!
Almost all of the big shots in the World of Darkness and Shadows had joined the battle!
Who could take it?!
“Zhao Yunshan.”
Gao Tianlang felt worried as well.
“I trust him!”
Zhao Yunshan said calmly, “The Sword Card Master Association is not only invincible fighting people of the same level, we are even invincible against enemies one level higher than us!”
Really?
The students were doubtful.
However...
The rising brightness in the distance gave them hope.
They did not believe that the Sword Card Master Association was invincible beyond their level. They did not even believe that they were unrivaled among those of the same level. However, at this moment, they hoped that it was real!
Right then...
The small flame of hope that they had in the Sword Card Master Association burned in their hearts.
All the students wished fervently that what he said was true.
If that was the case...
Bang!
Bang!
The beam of light shot into the sky!
Zhao Yunshan’s gaze was firm.
He believed that his master would find a way!
...
At this very moment...
Deep in the World of Darkness and Shadows.
Bang!
Bang!
Small suns exploded one after another.
Lu Ming had been using his last resort to escape from the big shots. However, they kept chasing after him relentlessly!
There was no way to kill them!
There was no way to send them off exploding!
Yes.
Although the Sunlight Card was very destructive, for seven-star and above... it was still not as powerful.
Many powerful seven-stars had been seriously injured by Lu Ming. However, apart from that, there was no way to kill them right away!
Seven-star was after all a very scary level!
Even the Sunlight Card could not defeat them!
Let alone eight-star or nine-star!
Lu Ming felt very helpless.
It was true.
Although he seemed very impressive like Little Teemo[2], planting mushrooms all over the world, but without a doubt, once he had no more mushrooms and would enter CD[3]...
He would die!
And unfortunately, Lu Ming was only left with two fruits.
He could not take it anymore!
“I am about to die...”
Lu Ming sighed.
“So much for fronting!”
Xiao-Xiaojian was contemptuous.
Given his abilities, how dare he tell his disciple to wait for him!
He was too shameless!
“When you return, Zhao Yunshan may no longer trust you.”
Xiao-Xiaojian sneered.
“Of course not.”
Lu Ming was very calm. “If I fail, they will not remember it.”
Xiao-Xiaojian was speechless.
Damn!
That seemed very logical.
Shush!
The air trembled.
The auras of many big shots appeared again.
Lu Ming gritted his teeth and threw out another Sunlight Card before running for his life.
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
The small sun burst.
Damn it!
Lu Ming gritted his teeth.
He would not be able to hold on any longer!
If he really could not make it, Brother Cat could bring him back... However, if that was the case, all the students who were left behind would die...
Even then, Lu Ming had no intention of giving up.
Because he was waiting!
Because...
There was still a chance!
“Are you sure?”
Xiao-Xiaojian was suspicious.
What was the situation like? He who had gone against the rules had no more tricks up his sleeves. No one else would be able to help them!
“I am certain!”
Lu Ming was very sure.
This was because the chance was Lu Yan!!!
He sent a message to his elder sister. He believed that his sister had seen his message. However, until now, she had yet to reply to him!
What was his elder sister doing?!
...
At this very moment...
Among the frightening group that was chasing Lu Ming down...
Pfft!
A black figure spat a mouthful of black blood.
“Are you okay?”
Everyone rested their gazes on the person.
“I am alright.”
The seven-star trembled.
The damn small sun was too terrifying. That guy would always use it when he was about to be captured. He was seriously wounded after being injured by its force.
“Had I known, I would have directly driven him out back.”
He smiled bitterly.
The chase this time had taken up a lot of their cultivation time.
The chase had destroyed the World of Darkness and Shadows!
“Driven him out?”
“That’s ridiculous!”
Another big shot sneered. “Look at this world. Look at what it has become! If you aren’t able to figure out why, will you rest assured?!”
Yes.
This was the reason why the big shots joined forces to chase him down!
They did not have a good relationship!
Obviously not.
The battle within themselves was even more fierce and ruthless!
However...
In the face of the threat to their very core existence and to the question of eternal life, they had no other choice but to investigate!
There was no room for compromise in this matter!
Besides...
Although the ability covered a wide range and was very powerful, it could not kill them because they were seven-stars!
It was not that powerful.
Since that was the case, they must catch hold of that person now!
Otherwise...
It would be dangerous if he was capable of threatening seven-star and above in the future!
“I understand now.”
The seven-star came to his senses.
“You guys can go ahead!
“I will rest for a short while.
“I can feel that this guy can’t last for long. We must not let him off!” he said.
“Alright.”
The big shots continued to chase after Lu Ming.
They could clearly feel that the damn bastard could not hold on any longer...
Their opportunity was coming!
Buzz—
Faint lights and shadows circulated.
The seriously injured seven-star sat cross-legged and began to heal himself.
He was seriously wounded. He suffered from the explosion of the small sun three consecutive times and there was a hole in his chest. However, it was alright. It was not fatal.
Their bodies could live on forever.
Shadow Transformation was a very peculiar process of attaining eternal life.
Over there...
There was no flesh or body.
The consciousness represented their strength!
Their shadow-transformed bodies were highly consistent with their consciousness!
It was almost perfect!
Buzz—
The shadow force surged.
His injuries were healing.
However...
At this moment.
In the distance, a graceful figure suddenly appeared.
