nThe next day.

nEarly morning.

nXiaobai was still studying the basic lines, while Lu Ming had officially begun the preparations for the Cultivation Card.

nFirst thing, research.

nHe needed to research the usage of the Fish Leap Technique. He gave this difficult task to Zhang Xiaopang.

n——

nAn energy consumption of fifty points would be able to summon a fish which had a length of thirty centimeters, width of fifteen centimeters and teeth that were five centimeters. Damage caused…

nAn energy consumption of eighty points would be able to summon a fish which was thirty-two centimeters long, sixteen centimeters wide…

nAn energy consumption of one hundred and fifty points would be able to summon a fish…

nAn energy consumption of three hundred points…

n…

n——

nAnd so on.

nThe higher the energy input, the bigger the fish that was summoned, and of course, the greater the damage!

nLu Ming came up with the data table for the Fish Leap Technique. He had conceived a concept in his heart.

nSecondly, Charging Card.

nHe needed the lines of the Charging Card!

nThis card was essentially the lowest level card. Otherwise, it would not be so cheap. It was only slightly more expensive than a one-star Energy Card. Therefore, Lu Ming bought it without much thought.

nThere was no encryption on such a card.

nLearn and study!

nThe card was very simple. He learned it after looking at it once.

nThirdly, Illusion Card!

nThe creating mechanism for the Game Card was too simple. Therefore, it needed a layer of packaging.

nAt the very least… it must not be easily seen through like Fruit Ninja!

nWhat he wanted was that those who had seen it, experienced it and had the card could not understand the core mechanism of the card. They could only see the gaming part of the card!

nThat was the effect that he wanted!

n“Xiaopang, come over here.

nI want a sea…

nYes, I do not need any restaurant or fruits. I only want an endless ocean which will contain a variety of fish and other living organisms!

nFor example, a small yellow croaker, big snakehead fish, swamp eel… put everything inside for me!

nYou must make sure to differentiate the different levels.”

n“Yes, I will make sure to do that.”

n“Put a special egg over here… Well, it must correspond to the table that I came up with two days ago. Do you understand?”

n“Yes, this is the data.”

n“Prompt. There must be a number prompt. Those that will make a sound, understand?”

nLu Ming continued to give orders.

nSoon, the illusion was completed.

nWhoosh!

nThe illusion turned into neat lines after the Original Card sealed it.

nIllusion Card, completed!

n“It’s settled!”

nLu Ming was thrilled.

nThe Fish Leap Card was completed. The Charging Card was completed, so was the Illusion Card. What followed after had to be done by himself. He had to use the Lamination Technique to link them together!

n“Come on.”

nLu Ming was thrilled.

nThe first layer—Charging Card, energy consumption of one hundred points.

nLu Ming drew the lines carefully.

nThe lines in the Charging Card had the highest energy requirement. Lu Ming placed it at the bottom layer, so that the stairs would be able to withstand the drawn lines!

nAfter drawing the lines for each layer, he had to be extra careful in drawing the stairs.

nIt was the most crucial path!

nThe second layer—Fish Leap Card, energy consumption of fifty points.

nDone!

nHe continued to draw the stairs.

nThe third layer—Illusion Card, energy consumption of fifty points.

nWhoosh!

nWhoosh!

nLu Ming never dared to have the slightest slack.

nThis was the first time that he drew the high difficulty level Composite Card.

nThree cards in one!

nThis was not one of those slow and simple Game Cards, where one only needed to increase the storage. This was a real Composite Card that could only work with energy!

nLu Ming did not even know whether his energy was stable or not.

nFortunately, just when he almost could not hold on anymore, a touch of light flashed, the lines had reached the final finishing stage!

nShush!

nLu Ming made the final sealing stokes gently.

nThe final sealing strokes of the basic lines were akin to “The end” in programming.

n“Done!”

nLu Ming was excited.

nDone!

nHe held the first Composite Card in his hands!

nBuzz—

nThere was a flash of light on the card face.

nThe lines turned pitch black on the back of the card. One had to sense with energy to feel it. There was a huge fish on the front of the card.

nWell…

nThis was the sign of the Fish Leap!

nThe Charging Card and the Illusion Card acted as support. The core of the card was the Fish Leap!

nHe turned the card. There were two small arrows on the front of the card.

nWell…

nThis was the energy inlet.

nOne of them was for filling up energy, meaning that it could charge and store energy.

nThe other one was to activate the card, meaning that it could release the energy!

nAs long as the energy flowed and emerged at the designated position of the arrow, it would achieve the corresponding effect. This was the Composite Card that Lu Ming created!

nThe effect of this card…

nLu Ming went into the testing stage.

nCharge testing…

nIllusion testing…

nUsage testing…

nHe would have to test all of them.

nBuzz—

nLu Ming directed the energy inside his body to charge the card.

nHe knew that…

nThe so-called charging was in essence the effect of the Charging Card that Teacher An passed to him last time. However, his design was not as simple.

nBuzz—

nThere was a flash of light.

nThe illusion was activated with the influx of energy.

nThis was a low-level illusion.

nThere was no attack at all.

nIt could be stopped halfway.

nThe total consumption was only fifty points of energy. It was negligent to any cultivator. Of course, one could also choose to enter the illusion to feel how the card was like.

nLu Ming chose to enter.

nAt this moment, the world around him seemed to become an ocean.

nBefore his eyes…

nWas endless seawater.

nThe sea was full of all kinds of creatures.

nAn egg floated quietly on the sea. As one filled up the energy, cracks appeared on the egg. It finally cracked as one continued to fill up the energy.

nClick!

nClick!

nThere was a crisp sound followed by a trace of glory.

nA small silver fish appeared from the egg. Its distinctive appearance attracted Lu Ming’s attention.

nThe small fish wandered in the ocean, blending together with the sea. The other surrounding small fish noticed it and crowded around it, bullying the outsider. It looked very miserable.

nHowever…

nWith the influx of one’s energy, the small fish suddenly became active.

nIt dashed ferociously to a small fish right in front of it and swallowed it!

nClick!

nClick!

nClick!

nAs the energy continued to be filled up, the small fish began to eat all sorts of fish.

nIt ate level one small fish, level two small fish, level three small fish… In the illusion one could even see the fish count that kept rising.

nGobbled level one small fish, energy increase of ten points.

nGobbled level one small fish, energy increase of ten points.

n…

nCongratulations!

nYour Leviathan has evolved to level two!

n…

nGobbled level two snakehead fish, energy increase of one hundred points.

nGobbled level two snakehead fish, energy increase of one hundred points.

n…

nCongratulations!

nYour Leviathan has evolved to level three!

n…

nGobbled level three koi, energy increase of one thousand points.

nGobbled level three koi, energy increase of one thousand points.

n…

n…

n…

nGobbled level nine megalodon, energy increase of ***** points.

nGobbled level nine megalodon, energy increase of ***** points.

nCongratulations!

nYour Leviathan has evolved to level ten!

nBang!

nThere was a loud sound.

nThere was a blinding flash!

nCongratulations!

nYour Leviathan had undergone massive evolution, it had evolved from a fry to a giant Leviathan, its combat ability has greatly improved!

n…

nThat was what happened!

nThis was the Game Card that Lu Ming created!

nLeviathan!

nAs long as one filled the energy, one could rear the Leviathan! As one filled it up with more energy, the Leviathan would become more and more powerful. It would even become a three-star, four-star, or five-star…

nThere was no limit!

nIt would keep growing and evolving! It would keep gobbling other sea creatures and become stronger!

nThis was the concept of the Leviathan!

nThe most important point was—

nIt could be summoned!

nThis turned the Game Card into a Cultivation Card!

nIts nature had changed.

nIn fact, this card was very simple—in essence, it was the Fish Leap Card the Charging Card.

nWhen one filled up the energy, the energy was in the Charging Card. Upon releasing it, it was in fact releasing the energy in the Charging Card to activate the Fish Leap Card.

nThat was all.

nIt was simple and rough.

nBut not many people could tell the mechanism.

nIllusion Card!

nThe third layer of Illusion Card was to package and conceal it!

nIt packaged and concealed the core of the Fish Leap Card Charging Card into all sorts of fish, creating a magical game mechanism where the fish kept growing!

nWhy was Fruit Ninja so popular?

nCould it really be that it was the only card that trained one’s reaction?

nNaturally not.

nIn this world, there were lots of other methods to train one’s reaction time.

nFurthermore—

nThe effect was much better!

nHowever, those cultivation methods were too boring. Their efficiency would decrease in the long run! Therefore, Fruit Ninja played an important role.

nIt was very popular as it combined gaming with cultivation!

nTherefore…

nIt was the same with this card.

nWeren’t there other ways to charge and release energy?

nOf course!

nOther people would have come up with such ideas. However, like the Charging Card, it would hinder cultivation and it was boring and a waste of time!

nNo one would use it!

nThey felt that it was not cost effective.

nThen…

nHow about looking at it from another perspective?

nIt was too exhausting to charge a card…

nHow about…

nLet’s rear a Leviathan!!!

nThe game started with an egg. One had to rear it in order for it to evolve!

nThe upper right corner was the combat ability ranking. One could always check the power of one’s Leviathan!

nHe had adopted the perfect evolution effects. Each time there was an upgrade, there would be sounds and effects to remind the user and to satisfy and bring pleasure to the user. When it reached level ten…

nThere the effects evolved!

nHatchling, fry, humongous Leviathan, there were distinctive levels for them to upgrade to!

nAfter reaching the stage of the humongous Leviathan, it would evolve and branch into two possible stages. If the evolution was successful, it would turn into a fire Leviathan, if it was a failure, it would turn into a unique corpse Leviathan, helping one to become more formidable!

nAnd most importantly, one could summon all of them!

nAccording to one’s wishes!

nAs long as one was willing!

nOne could activate the card and release the attack ability!

nThe Leviathan that one reared would turn into real combat ability. When one was in danger, one would be able to use it to give the enemy a striking blow at the most crucial moment!

nThe higher the combat ability of the Leviathan, the more powerful the card would be!

nThis card…

nCould be one’s hidden trump card.

nAt the thought of this…

nLu Ming tore a label and wrote on it seriously, pasting it on the top right corner of the card—”Leviathan”.

n
