The life of Sang Hanshui was full of hardship. He had became an ancient card expert during his journey of seeking for phenomenal cards.
He was ruthless. He shadowed himself behind the scene, reigning over various small and middle scale organizations. Though he did everything he could, eventually he still failed to find a suitable card for himself, that was until Chen Mu created him the card, [Bomb].
Though [Bomb] was extremely powerful, however, due to the lack of materials at that time, it was not the finest card as compared to the cards invented afterward. Chen Mu now was not short of precious materials, in fact, he could still able to produce higher rank cards.
However, in a strange way, when Chen Mu proposed to create a new card for him previously, Sang Hanshui rejected his offer.
Obviously, Sang Hanshui did not reject the offer out of courtesy, but because he could still remember what Chen Mu had said to him that day.
Instead of searching for better cards, it might be better to exploit the potentials of the cards in their hands.
In Chen Mu’s point of view, [Bomb] might not be an impressive card. However, in the eyes of Sang Hanshui, this would be the best card he had ever seen thus far.
Ever since Chen Mu came out with the words, Sang Hanshui had been reflecting about the life he had led.
It was from then that he became less ambitious. Right after he acquired [Bomb], his ambition seemed to have vanished completely. Thereafter, besides completing the training task that Chen Mu had assigned for him, he had spent hours studying [Bomb].
During the fierce battle in the house of Tai-shu, the series of offensives strategies Chen Mu had created, such as [Graupel Bomb] and [Triple Snake Twister Bomb] had even managed to impress the greatest Faya card artisan, Fang Shi.
It was after that night that his interest completely shifted. He started to pour his heart into researching the abilities of various cards.
Of course, the boss’s offer was full of temptation. How could he not know the abilities of the cards created by the boss?
Even the [Wheel] in Xiaobo’s hand was way more impressive than his [Bomb].
Nevertheless, Sang Huishui still decided to reject his offer.
He did not want to change his card even if there were better cards. By changing cards, it would mean that he had to create new abilities for the card all over again and that was not what he wanted. [Bomb] might not be extremely powerful, but to him, there was nothing more suitable.
The Sang Hanshui now that had lost all his ambitions and what he had left was only one single thought. He wanted to see how far he could go with this card!
Staring at the lightsabers that was coming directly towards him, a cold smile appeared behind his mask.
He slightly shook his right hand and the next moment, five red missiles flew straight towards the incoming lightsabers.
The speed of the five red missiles was not top notch. They formed a straight line and it appeared to be nothing more than a normal attack.
However, right at the moment when all the card artisans went slightly disappointed, the last missile among the five suddenly exploded!
Boom!
Yet, when everyone was still in a daze, another loud explosion echoed.
Boom!
The second missile!
Boom!
At the same time, the third missile also blew up!
The fourth one followed along too!
Everyone went blank.
What was that? What was the point of the missile exploding without reaching the enemy?
The four missiles exploded and scattered throughout the sky like fireworks.
Boom boom boom boom!
Four blazing lights formed a straight line in the sky.
However, only the first missile out of the five did not explode. Could it be…
Several quick-witted card artisans in the crowd widened their eyes and stared at the sky. They were perplexed as they had realized what was going on.
The combined impact force of the last four missiles which had exploded continuously was snowballed and it had created a tremendous force! This driving force was accumulated from the explosion of the 4 missiles and it had casted an additional effect onto the first missile at the front!
It was like a brute force hammering down onto the first missiles.
An overwhelming and smoldering collinear red light was embedded in the eyes of every spectator!
A tremendous force had boosted the first missile to an terrifying speed! It was impossible for unaided eyes to see. The captain of the Cang Jiang Military Force was an experienced fighter in battles. He managed to stay calm and to utilize his perception to summon the nearest three lightsabers to form a light shield in front of him.
The colourful light beam landed destructively onto the light shield!
Boom!
The intensive explosion and fiery white flame had immediately devoured the level 7 Cang Jiang Military Force card artisan.
None of them could describe this attack!
From the consecutive explosion by the last four missiles to the insane accelerated first missile, followed by the meteor-like impact force that crashed onto the opponent’s shield and ended with a detrimental blast! These visual effects had formed a shocking impact to everyone there.
[Consecutive Pressure Bomb] !
The entire battlefield was silence. Everyone was stunned by Sang Hanshui’s move. It was not just the audience, even the level 7 card artisans around Chen Mu was flabbergasted. They had never seen such intense attack in their life!
The flame that was ignited by the explosion was still ablaze in the sky, taking the form of a cluster of flowers.
The power of the accelerated missiles had baffled everyone.
Xiaobo was floating in the air while gazing at the Light Beam Scattered Shadow at a distance that had yet to fade out.
“Oh boy, that triangle eye is quite ferocious!” He murmured to himself.
On the mask full of chrysanthemum drawings, a pair of starry eyes glimmered, burning bright with fighting spirit.
With this hit, Sang Hanshui had completely shattered the will of all the card artisans of Cang Jiang Military Force.
Sang Hanshui who was the cause of the commotion, stared blankly at his right hand. “Oh, how can it be so powerful?” His eyes had shown his disbelief as he muttered under his breath.
Upon saying the words, he realized that he had already achieved level 7. However, the words he said had made the other card artisans around him to roll their eyes.
The reason why Sang Hanshui could kill the enemy with one-hit was not because of the level. The opponent was too a level 7 card artisan too. There was not a huge difference between both of them. Nevertheless, the opponent had gone through three hours of exhausting battle and he was at his limit. Those powerful attacks previously was because of the strong equipments.
Still, with this attack, Sang Hanshui had reconstructed his image in the hearts of the card artisans of Wooden Word Camp.
After the breakthrough, the card artisans of Cang Jiang Military Force did not escape as a group but to scatter themselves to escape in various directions.
To Wooden Word Camp, there were both advantages and disadvantages. The good being that the enemy’s force had been weakened, therefore Wooden Word Camp would only need to eliminate them one by one, the pressure would be lessen. The downside was that it was challenging to completely eliminate all the enemies.
Countless people were hit and many fell down from the air. The survival rate was low in this situation. Without the use of jet steam cards and energy shield, falling from over ten meters would be fatal for all the card artisans.
However, this had failed to slow down others. On the contrary, the card artisans of Cang Jiang Military Force were stimulated and started to show extraordinary strength. The card artisans of Wooden Word Camp who had been hovering there would not let the card artisans of Cang Jiang Military Force to escape that easily.
It was a restless battle. The Cang Jiang Military Force got nearly wiped out and the Wooden Word Camp had a number of casualties too.
The battle pattern had changed from a large-scale battle to scattered small battles. In order to fight, one would not need only courage but also luck. Rafael was speechless. It was obvious that their team was the typical team with not much decent luck. Previously, Sang Hanshui had noticed that these people were trying to escape and therefore, he had commanded Rafael to set up ambush to the enemy from behind. However, they had waited so long but none of the enemies had run towards their way. There were a few times when they had finally seen several enemy card artisans coming towards them, but they were eliminated by the card artisans from Wooden Word Camp before they could even reach to their ambush point.
As compared with them, the Luck Fairy was on Little Bu Mo’s side.
He had encountered the remaining sole leader of the Cang Jiang Military Force.
Little Bu Mo was hiding on the tree while locking his eyes onto the card artisan who was flying in his direction.
Cardless sects had no part in large-scale battles. In large-scale battles, the sky would always be the best battlefield. Card artisans would have enough space to dodge around in the sky.
The previous child-like features were gone from Little Bu Mo’s face. He had turned into a real fighter, like an experienced hunter in a forest, calm and patient.
He did not have to take orders from Sang Hanshui and was able to move on his own. All of the ambush points were picked by himself. Although he had been waiting there for 3 hours, he had shown no sign of impatient.
Little Bu Mo’s capabilities was still remained unknown to Chen Mu. However, the obvious changes happened on Little Bu Mo had was to hard to be ignored.
The enemy was flying this way!
The target card artisan was a professional one. He kept on covering himself with the help of the forest. His expressions were alert. He did not even activate his energy shield. This had clearly violated the rule of the card artisan which had made Little Bu Mo to pay more attention to it. Usually, card artisans would set up energy shields all the time as it could provide them with a sense of security. However, only those experienced card artisan would choose not to activate it. Staying out of sight was crucial especially when you they were trying to escape from danger.
Little Bu Mo held his breath, cautiously calculating the distance between both himself and the opponent.
Even in the forest, this card artisan could still maintain his dodging movements, paying extra attention to his surroundings.
Their distance had gradually closed in. Even though their distance had been narrowed down to 20 meters, Little Bu Mo was still waiting there stone-still. His eyes were half closed and he did not even make a blink. The opponent had entered his attack range. The effective attack range for his airskill was 20 meters.
He was waiting for the perfect timing to attack.
His opponent was very vigilant. He would escape right away if he was to realize any slight movement.
If the battlefield was in the forest, the opponent definitely would not have the chance to escape from his clutch. However, if the opponent decided to fly into the sky, then he would have no chance at all but to watch him escape.
However, if this card artisan failed to run away, he would attract the attention of the other card artisans from Wooden Word Camp.
Yet, Little Bu Mo was hoping to get rid of the enemy himself.
This card artisan suddenly charged into the air, seemingly attempting to fly up to the sky.
Little Bu Mo was hiding behind the leaves. His eyelids flickered but his stance was solid.
The opponent suddenly ducked down when he was at the verge of breaking through the tree crown. He had finally shown a sign of relief.
It looked like there was no one around here!
If anyone was setting up an ambush, they would have decided to attack when he made his move earlier.
His thought had calmed himself down a little. If he flew forward for a short distance, he would be able to breakthrough the enemy’s blockade.
He did not believe that the enemy would go through all the trouble just to hunt one person down.
This nightmare would finally be over!
He continued to flying forward. Right when he was about to heave a sigh of relief, a shadow suddenly charged at him from the tree beside him.
What…?
They crossed path with each other and with a snap, he fell from the sky.
He sprained his neck after falling down. His eyes were wide open, lifelessly staring at the sky.
An agile figure vanished between the trees.
