Card Maker: My Cards Infinite Chain

"Distortion towards... the stars?" Yu Cang swallowed, "What do you mean?"

"That's the literal meaning." Ladao, "Once an individual possesses a power that exceeds the myth, then this individual will be infected by an unknown infection and become a star in the universe."

"Become a star... then... wait." Yu Cang suddenly thought of something.

When he was in Feng Yue Cangjian, his body was on the verge of reaching its limit, and the Emperor Star's will once awakened in his body and manifested itself.

In fact, he wanted to ask at that time, the Emperor Star should be a star, right? Then it should be a celestial body. How can a simple celestial body have consciousness?

Since it has a will, it should be a life... Then since the life of the Emperor Star appears every time to fight against Huang, why does it have to go around in such a big circle to find a chosen one?

He can warm up by himself and go straight to the field.

Oh yes, Emperor Star does want to play on his own, but only after he dies.

Yu Cang frowned slightly. He organized his words and expressed his doubts to La.

"This...actually I know very little about the Emperor Star, even the Roland Sky Realm, but I can tell you about other stars, and you can make your own judgment." La said, "First of all, since I said this is an 'infection', Then becoming a star is definitely not a good thing.

"Once all spirits transcend myths and become distorted into stars, they will become the same as all the celestial bodies in the starry sky. They can no longer move and think as freely as they once did, and can only let the huge energy in their bodies burn. , turning into light to illuminate a corner of the universe.

"In the 'star' state, they can do almost nothing, but because of this, they gain the ability to select the 'chosen one' - such a being is qualified to become the 'fate star' of other mortal beings."

La looked at Yu Cang: "I see that in your soul card system, there is a soul card that can directly draw on the power of the life star, right?"

Yu Cang nodded: "That's right...it's a gray soul card."

"In other civilizations, there are similar cultivation systems - by communicating with the destiny stars, you can gain the powerful power during your lifetime."

"Then...since that's the case." Yu Cang was a little worried, "Are there any hidden dangers?"

Before, he only thought that the power of this destiny star was quite useful, and the gray soul card would be an important piece of the puzzle to complete the soul card master's power system.

But I learned that those "fate stars" are likely to be infected... This kind of infection will not follow the gray soul card and also come to the Blue Star, right?

La saw Yu Cang's worry, and he shook his head: "You don't have to worry about this. There are many civilizations in the universe that can use destiny stars countless times more directly than you. This kind of cultivation method is already It's relatively safe. Moreover, star distortion only targets the powerful above the myth, and the creatures below will not be affected - at least they will not turn into stars.

"What's more, I've seen your gray soul card... This system is too safe. Using the soul card as a medium to use power, the risk is very low."

"That's good..." Yu Cang breathed a sigh of relief.

"But there are hidden dangers - after becoming a star, the power, personality, and spirit of a great being will be turned into fuel and burn brightly, and shine in all directions through light. How great the personality of this being is, and the people chosen by it are almost will inevitably be affected by it and become closer and closer.

"However, such an influence will happen all the time, even if you don't use its power, so you can rest assured."

Yu Cang was silent for a moment.

This sentence reminded him of his imperial heart.

Once in Feng Yue Cangjian, he had the experience of his personality being affected by the Emperor's Heart. Fortunately, he persisted in the end and did not choose to change his personality.

Now it seems that this situation is not limited to the Emperor Star, but also other stars.

Thinking of this, he hesitated for a moment and said: "Then... has there ever been a situation... where the stars directly resurrected in the body of the chosen one and took over the body of the chosen one?"

"I've never heard of this... Why do you ask?" La seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed, "Could it be that..."

"...Well, the Emperor Star once revived in my body." Yu Cang said, "But he said...that he would wait until I die."

La frowned.

"Are you sure that the one who revived is the Emperor Star itself?"

"That should be it."

In an era, there will only be one chosen person for the Emperor Star, so logically speaking, the one who has the Emperor's Heart, other than yourself, will be the Emperor Star.

Moreover, the place in Feng Yue Cangjian has special rules. Unless there is a connection between the Emperor Star and herself, it will not appear there... What's more, Chao Ci has seen the Emperor Star before, which she has certified.

"This..." Lamo stroked his chin, thoughts flashed in his eyes, "This reminds me of a conjecture I made a long time ago... What if the destiny star completely affects the person he chooses, making him have the same personality and strength as the one he once had? If he is highly similar to himself, then it is equivalent to the successful reincarnation of that former strong man...

"This conjecture has almost been forgotten because there is no evidence, but when you say it... it is indeed possible. Those strong men who transcend myths will definitely not be willing to become a lifeless celestial body. There is such a trick for the last time. It’s normal to struggle.”

Yu Cang nodded, silent and did not speak.

If that's the case... Emperor Star is probably a strong man from countless eras ago?

The battle between Emperor Star and Huang lasted for an unknown number of epochs. Since Emperor Star was transformed by a strong man, wouldn't it be true that Huang... was also the same?

Yu Cang felt that this guess was very reliable.

Before the Emperor Star appears, the Desolate Star will also appear, and then spread the infection everywhere... The Desolate God is equivalent to the chooser of the Desolate Star.

It makes sense logically, otherwise how can we explain that every Huang infection is generated out of thin air?

The empire had been preparing for famine for so many years, but it suddenly came out suddenly. It would be hard to explain otherwise.

So Yu Cang immediately asked: "Well... la, is there a star named 'Huang'?"

However, La shook his head: "I know what you are thinking, but unfortunately, from ancient times to the present, and even in the records of the last era, there are no stars that represent desolation."

Yu Cang frowned: "That Huang..."

"You want to ask where Huang comes from, right." La Yixiao said, "Then you've asked the right person... I'm afraid there won't be another person under the stars who can give you the answer to this question."

"oh?"

"...Because I have reached that state before and then gave up, so I have personally come into contact with that kind of infection that only targets the supreme power." La suppressed his smile, and a look of reminiscence appeared on his face, " Later, I spent nearly 10,000 years studying the desert and conducting various experiments on it. A sense of déjà vu has always lingered in my mind.

"For several years in the Giant Sun Tree, I was able to feel the erosion of the wilderness at close range. At this time, I finally understood where this sense of déjà vu came from."

La's expression became a little more serious, and he said sternly: "The power that infects the supreme power and the so-called desolation... actually come from the same source!"

Yu Cang was stunned: "Same origin?"

"That's right - they all come from the same power in essence. I speculate that Huang's infection has never disappeared and has existed since the beginning of the era. However, at first, Huang only targeted the strong ones above the myth. Transforming them into stars will not infect the weak, but once the number of such alien stars in the universe reaches a certain threshold... the infection of Huang will be leaked!"

La looked at Yu Cang's silent expression and sighed: "This guess is very close to ten. I believe that my perception and knowledge will never be wrong - Yu Cang, did you think of something?"

"...Hmm." Yu Cang's lips were a little dry, "It's like...some kind of mechanism of the universe itself..."

If an individual is too strong or has too many, it will be cleared by the universe!

It's like nature's dynamic balance of species... except that the actions of the universe are more ruthless and thorough.

"That's right." La said, "In fact, it's very reasonable - if there are no restrictions on the beings above the myth, if they release their power unscrupulously, it will be enough to cause irreversible damage to the entire universe. From the standpoint of the universe itself, To be honest, there should indeed be restrictions. The same applies to civilization itself - after all, these great powers all come from civilization."

Listening to La's words, Yu Cang felt a sense of powerlessness spreading in his heart.

It turns out that the existence that I want to fight against...is actually the universe itself?

So what else is there to do?

No matter how powerful he is, he is just a mortal being born in the universe.

Even if he gathered all the power available in the universe, he would still not be able to equal the universe itself, let alone defeat it.

Moreover, even if he wins the battle and the universe is gone, where will he and Blue Star go?

For a moment, Yu Cang felt that what he was doing now was a bit meaningless.

"The master of this body!" Ye Lai suddenly said, "Don't forget your comrades."

Yu Cang was startled.

Comrades... too.

The opponent is the universe...that's it.

His purpose of fighting against Huang along the way was never to protect the universe, but to protect the people around him and the civilization around him.

After making so many promises, how could it be so easy to feel that they were meaningless?

Yu Cang rubbed his head.

If this is the truth... then there is nothing we can do about it.

At this time, La Ye said: "When I came to this conclusion, I was just as shocked and negative as you. However, Yu Cang, no matter what the truth is, the fact is - Huang is trying to kill us, even if we have to face It’s the universe itself, and we can only resist.”

"I know." Yu Cang sighed, "This is probably just a guess...it may not be the truth."

La nodded: "At present, I really only have logical deductions."

"Then forget it for now." Yu Cang looked at La, "I have another question - do you remember Princess Xingchen? She once told me that her father was a strong man who transcended mythology... And those who live well do not exist in the form of stars, what is going on?"

"Yu Cang, most of my memories of that empire have disappeared." La said slowly, "But I can tell you, if an emperor of the empire transcends mythology... then every emperor of the empire must It’s all beyond myth.”

Yu Cang was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"It is almost irresistible to be infected by myths, but there are always exceptions - there are still a few strong people who transcend myths in the universe." La said, "It's just that they can stay awake not because they are Myself, but because of...a certain 'quota'."

"Quota?"

"Yes, this phenomenon makes me feel that everything is secretly controlled by the universe itself - the empire's dominance spreads throughout the starry sky. Logically speaking, this is difficult to achieve for the almost infinite star realm. But the empire just happens to Behind this, it is very likely that the universe itself acquiesces - the universe needs such a civilization to manage the starry sky for it.

"In this case, the universe will also allow the ruler of the empire to enter a realm beyond myth in an individual form... However, such an existence cannot escape the final distortion. As far as I know, the infection of Huang When there was a large-scale outbreak, these existences disappeared one after another in a very short period of time, which is also a kind of evidence."

Yu Cang was silent again.

Is this actually the case...

La looked at Yu Cang and said nothing.

These memories are not available in Ra's eyes.

Because there is little conclusive evidence for these speculations, although based on his experience, knowledge and intuition as a scholar, this is very likely to be the truth, but in any case, it is of little use in fighting the famine, and will only aggravate people's psychological burden.

Therefore, Ra did not stuff these memories into the Eye of Ra - he gave the Eye of Ra to Yu Cang, hoping to spread the hope of fighting against Huang instead of aggravating the fear.

This time, Yu Cang was silent for a long time.

After a while, he raised his head: "Then...what now? Are there any other 'places' that can reach the realm beyond mythology?"

He couldn't help but feel hopeful.

After all, the future described by Ra is too scary.

The upper limit of an individual's ability...is locked by the enemy!

The realm can only reach mythology, and it cannot be reached any higher!

And what about Huang? Even if the strength of the Aragami does not surpass the myth, it must be at the top of the myth. Such an existence can be easily produced by the Aragami... and can even be customized according to different civilizations.

If this shackle is not resolved, the disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves will become hopelessly disparate.

"I don't know about other 'quotas', but you must have them."

Yu Cang was stunned: "Me?"

"That's right." La pointed at Yu Cang's chest, "Have you forgotten, you are the Emperor Star's chosen one. Under the protection of the Emperor Star, at least you can definitely enter Transcendence Myth in a clear head!"

"Is this so..."

Yu Cang was not too happy in his heart.

If he was alone, it would seem that it would not help.

Moreover, he couldn't believe it.

Your Emperor Star has turned into a star yourself... I expect you to protect me? Isn't that a bit too optimistic?

Even if Emperor Star's protection is really useful then... Who can be sure whether he is Yu Cang or the revived Emperor Star at that time?

No, there are definitely places available.

In silence, Yu Cang turned his attention to the entry recorder.

This thing...should be able to do it!

Entry equipment system, entry above myth!

However, Yu Cang has tried several times since the entry recorder was turned on, but has never seen even an entry above the myth... He now suspects that it may not be possible to reach it just by simple extraction. Beyond myth.

Perhaps, there are other conditions that need to be met by yourself.

La looked at the silent Yu Cang and thought that he was carrying the hope of the entire civilization on his shoulders and putting pressure on himself, so he said: "Don't be nervous. In fact, it is not that difficult to transcend the realm of myths. There are many myths that have long been satisfied. We have met the conditions for a breakthrough, but we just vaguely sensed the unknown danger, so we never made a breakthrough."

La looked at Ye Lai and Chao Ci behind Yu Cang.

Chao Ci also heard what he said just now, but she kept lying on the table as if it had nothing to do with her.

As if feeling La's gaze, Chao Cicai said: "Gu did not perceive the risk of infection he mentioned - if he is not lying, then Gu has this so-called 'quota'."

La nodded: "The innate transcendent myth... is always special. I have never seen it, so I dare not speculate. But I can feel that the dragon named Ye Lai should have touched this realm before, but in the end Also gave up.”

Ye Lai frowned slightly: "...I don't remember."

In his memory, he was just a myth...and even among the myths, he was not the strongest part.

"Normally, you come from Chaos. It's reasonable to forget things that have nothing to do with obsession." La looked at Yu Cang, "I can also sense that there is a swordsman from Chaos beside you... he should also be able to touch it. to the myth, but again, give up because of the danger.”

After Yu Cang heard this, he was silent for a moment, and Wang Zhiwo, who was on the side, measured Feng.

"Feng, is what La said true?"

Feng held the knife and frowned.

He was still thinking about this two days ago... The hometown that came from his memory due to his own power reminded him of many things.

However, he had long forgotten why he didn't take a step closer in the first place. In his opinion, it must be because he is not talented enough.

If he found the reason, he might transcend the myth on the spot so that Yu Cang wouldn't have to worry about the threat from the Imaginary Palace.

...Is it because of what Ra said?

Feng shook his head: "I don't remember - Summoner, I don't suggest you believe him in everything."

"……I know."

La didn't care: "It doesn't matter - but, Yu Cang. If you and your civilization really need this quota - Roland Sky Realm has one."

Yu Cang raised his head: "What do you mean?"

"When the Roland Sky Realm was at its most powerful, it was already qualified to give birth to existences above myths." La explained, "At that time, the Austrian Law Council had calculated that some of the laws of the Roland Sky Realm had changed, and there were changes in it that transcended myths. , may not cause distortion.

"Then, the Council conducted an experiment - choosing a scholar to forcibly transcend the myth, and then, it was indeed the case. The scholar showed no signs of being deformed into a star."

Yu Cang hissed: "What happened next?"

"Later, the scholar committed suicide." La closed his eyes, "The quota will not be created out of thin air. Since there is a quota, it means that there is something we need to do. But in the Roland Sky Realm, only knowledge is eternal, we don't For what mission would you give up your freedom to study?”

"Ah?" Yu Cang was stunned, "Suicide...did he do it voluntarily?"

"Of course - when he died in the process of seeking proof, he left with a smile - but transcending the myth is not that simple even ending oneself. The process of suicide alone lasted for 965 years."

Yu Cang: "..."

This won't stop him.

You don't need to think about it to know that this quota must be very precious, but why do you commit suicide when people say you want to commit suicide?

"Then, the Austrian Law Council made a decision to seal the quota and not allow any mage to break through privately. Although there were objections in the Council at that time, the final number of votes was greater than anything else, so there were no setbacks."

Hearing this, Yu Cang thought of something: "What about you? Didn't you say that you have broken through to a realm beyond mythology?"

"Yes. But I didn't use the 'place'." Ladao, "I broke through just to verify knowledge, not for power. After personally verifying the existence of star distortion, I returned to the realm of myth."

This so-called quota will only limit his wisdom.

After a pause, Lacai continued: "So, this quota has never been used, including after the large-scale outbreak of the drought - now, it should not have been taken back. According to calculations, if someone from Blue Star uses this quota to break through Beyond the myth, it will take at least fifty years for the star distortion to be triggered again.”

This time is not obtained out of thin air, but is summarized based on the time when those existences beyond mythology disappeared.

Fifty years is indeed a short time in the universe.

"So..." Yu Cang understood, "As long as we go to the Roland Sky Realm, we can safely break through and transcend the myth there?"

"That's the theory." La nodded.

"Hasn't your Roland Sky Realm been destroyed yet?"

"The Star Gods and Godheads of Roland's Sky Realm have long been destroyed by the Council. The things that maintain the stable existence of the world now have nothing to do with wisdom. Therefore, even if Huang infects all the wisdom there, the world will not dissipate...but it will be more dangerous. That’s all.”

Yu Cang took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, I understand."

Fifty years of transcendent myth!

This is truly an opportunity!

Although fifty years is a short period of time, it is long enough for Yan Kingdom... What Yu Cang needs most is this period of growth.

As long as there is a transcendent myth, then Huang Shen and the Imaginary Palace will no longer be a hidden threat, and Yu Cang can openly come to the stage to talk about cooperation with the Imaginary Palace.

But...how to use this quota...

After all, although it is a quota, it is also full of uncertainties... If this quota has been withdrawn, the stars will be distorted and folded in after the myth is broken.

The myth of Blue Star is too precious to risk.

At this time, Yu Cang's mind suddenly thought of what Ye Chengming said to him yesterday.

Emperor Changan, whose life is approaching... will wake up soon.

A flash of light flashed in Yu Cang's eyes.

It seems... very suitable for Di Changan.

Yu Cang rubbed his head.

"Yu Cang, don't worry, there is still a lot of time." La said, "Between you and your civilization, I will stand by your side."
