Chapter 3: Chaotic Secret Realm
e.Both sides engaged in a constant tug-of-war on the city walls.Ultimately, the Western Liang archers tenaciously resisted the allied forces' onslaught, successfully holding out until the siege ladder..."Evolution, choose 2. Google Search.com "
Lu Cheng meticulously ground away, wood shavings flying everywhere, the spear gradually beginning to take shape...
"Click."
Overexertion... the spearhead broke.
Evolution failed, you gained the card 【Ling Mu Chai (3)]!
It's okay, I'm just getting used to working with the soul-binding willow. The material isn't familiar yet. Just give me another one, and I estimate the success rate for this time should be over 70%!
Lu Cheng sat quietly for a while, and his energy returned almost fully.
Na He seems to have taken a hit, but this time his blue speed is really fast, almost twice as fast as the outside world!
This shows that forging equipment in this location can also gain a boost to its level speed, which is a pleasant surprise!
Another Soul-Suppressing Willow was used.
Start polishing.
The success rate has been increased to 78.1%, which is about the same as Lu Cheng's estimate.
You obtained the card 【Wooden Spear (Mourning Willow)! 】
Wooden Spear (Soul Willow)
Expansion Pack: Eastern Mythology - Netherworld
Equipment Card
Level: Common 3
Description: A roughly handcrafted spear made of soulwood.
Card Skill 1: Resilience (This spear is more durable than a normal wooden spear.)
Card Skill 2: Soul Piercing (This wooden spear deals minor soul damage when it strikes.)
Evolutionary method: Unknown
That's the effect I want!
Whether it's a spirit, a ghost, or any pure soul entity, physical attacks are almost ineffective. You need special expansion cards like [Pure Silver Bullet - Engraved Mark] and [Holy Water - Spirit β] to deal with them.
The spear in his hand also had a similar effect, although it was subtle, it was definitely enough to pierce fish.
Having used so many ordinary level-3 cards, he was nearing his current ability limit. Lu Cheng flipped them around a few times; the spear was indeed sturdy. Then, he cast an evil look towards the riverbank.
It took a whole night to make the spear, and the blood from the River Styx had already disappeared, returning to clear water.
Well done, little fishes, big brother is here!

Emma, this card introduction to Lu Cheng look hungry all...
Although there are no seasonings, using spiritwood to build a fire and roast fish is at least a temporary solution for survival.
Lu Cheng didn't capture too many. His brain domain deck and backpack were like the others, with capacity limits. With his current low strength, his deck capacity was almost full.
The top priority now is to figure out the rules of this secret realm.
He has been through many secret realms and knows that each one is unique. The opening, closing times, and rules for obtaining cards in secret realms all have their own specific regulations.
He is currently unaware of the rules governing the secret realm before him.
He lowered his head and thought for a moment.
Currently, there are 4 cards available. You have already found 3 of them, so there is 1 card left.
With this last card, Lu Cheng already had an idea.
Expansion pack cards are generally unusual, and the environment in front of me can be called unusual......
This river water just doesn't look right, does it
It's better to obtain the River Styx water, Lu Cheng simply cupped a bit in his hand and received the card.
They say to obtain the Holy Water, you have to take a sip... If the River Styx worked the same way, one gulp and I wonder if Charon would ever come back to save me again.
A scoop of the River Styx
Expansion Pack: Eastern Mythology - Youdu
Spent cards
Level: Normal 3
Introduction: The Naihe River, water by day, blood by night, confines the souls of the living within its depths, unable to escape for eternity.
Card Skill 1: Underworld Spring (During the day, this card is considered "Water," but at night it no longer has water properties. This card can provide the necessary ecosystem for Yin City Water creatures and Ghost cards.)
Evolutionary Method 1: Unknown
It's alive!
You have discovered all the current expansion pack cards. Survival progresses by advancing the progress bar. When the progress bar is full, you will randomly encounter a story, rumor, or myth related to the underworld!
Lu Cheng's heart skipped a beat.
The Unordered Secret Realm...
Most of the rules in secret realms in this world are orderly. The most common one is that secret realms are periodically closed and opened, and tasks are completed to obtain specific cards.
The rules of the secret realm before you are clearly those of a typical chaotic secret realm.
The vast land of China has advanced to the stage of myth with a progress bar, and randomly encounters an anecdote, rumor or myth...
Unranked secret realms usually have high rewards. Besides the risk of death, there's nothing bad about it.
This is the Ghost Capital, don't even talk about myths. If your luck isn't good, you could run into something sinister just from everyday happenings. Could you survive that
But thinking about it won't help the situation, so just keep living.
The progress bar is moving slowly.
Lu Cheng counted silently in his heart.
It will take about a day and a half to reach the top.
But because there was no clock, it wasn't very accurate.
The question now is, whether to have grilled fish or not.
I've already been hungry for a day, if I go another day and a half without eating, things might get serious.
But where is the water
Eating fish will inevitably accelerate thirst, and dryness becomes a greater problem.
If the River of Souls is considered water during the day, then can it be drunk during the day
Not necessarily.
The human body does not completely excrete water within a day, so by evening, the changes in water inside the body can be disastrous.
Thinking about it this way, even willow leaves wouldn't dare to be chewed on casually.
Lu Cheng sat down to conserve his energy and closed his eyes, re-channeling his power.
Elements like water, fire, and so on, most energies can be absorbed and transformed into a unified energy called "universal energy," also referred to as the cost of using cards by card readers.
Although cards like "Energy Potion" can replenish mana, they are usually expensive, have a small recovery amount, and recover slowly. In tense battles, most of the mana relies on the card master's own reserves.
There are many ways to cultivate a card master's energy level, the most common being through continuous absorption and utilization, expanding the "energy container" much like breathing in and out. It's all about getting comfortable with this flow.
This allows you to use more cards in battle or cards with higher costs, but besides "Tunna," there are also some more niche options like "Bloodsucking."
Lu Chengdan practiced for a while, and soon, the feeling of hunger slowly crawled out from his stomach, while his thirst became even more unbearable.
But he dared not take the risk, he could only endure it.
Time passed by every second. Suddenly, Lu Cheng opened his eyes.
To ensure a year of good weather and harvests for the village, a bride-to-be was drowned in the river. Now she floats on the River Styx, unclaimed by spirits. She's searching... look, she's coming towards you.tivate the card skill, Sword Formation - Defense!"Tian Gang Beidou relies on celestial trajectory dodging, while Tang Wuyao's Five Thunder Sword Formation was self-made at the time, relying on the swo...
