Mythical Card Maker: Starting with the Mountain Spirit

"Oh, you mean that ruler from earlier?"

Lin Mo looked enlightened, casually picked at his ear, revealing a set of pearly white teeth: "Sorry, it's mine now!"

"you……"

The young man in the blue robe was furious, a fierce glint suddenly flashing in his eyes:

"Alright, alright, I only intended to make you hand over the material cards you were carrying and then leave. Now it seems I need to teach you a lesson you won't know how powerful you are!"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and take him down, lest we miss the next easy target!"

The boy in black frowned, and a bright blue-edged card suddenly appeared in his palm.

A stream of light shot out from the card in his palm, eventually coalescing into a one-eyed, burly man wearing leather armor and wielding a long sword.

"I hate people who are more handsome than me more than anything else in my life!"

The taciturn boy summoned a card with a bright blue border, his tone turning cold: "When I catch this guy, I'm going to stomp on his face a few times!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a withered old man with a mechanical arm appeared.

Seeing this, the young man in the blue robe also summoned his own spirit.

It was a bald, burly man carrying a large iron hammer.

This bald, burly man was at least two meters tall, with bulging muscles all over his body, and he was wearing a chainmail.

As soon as the three Kaling appeared, they swiftly attacked Lin Mo.

"Are they all Black Iron Seven Stars?"

Lin Mo sensed the spiritual fluctuations emanating from the three card spirits and murmured something.

He immediately flipped his hand, and a card with a bright purple border appeared in his palm.

The specks of purple light slowly gathered in front of him, transforming into the shape of the National Mourning Legion.

"Ha!"

The National Mourning Legion roared in unison, and their Wu spears thrust out fiercely.

The spear danced in a series of dazzling movements, creating a sharp gust of wind, and collided with the three incoming Kaling attacks.

"Clang clang clang!"

A clanging sound of metal striking metal rang out, sparks flying everywhere.

An invisible wave of energy instantly spread out.

The next instant, the three figures were sent flying backward at an even faster speed than when they arrived.

He staggered back dozens of steps before finally regaining his balance.

"Oh no, it's a purple-quality Legion card, and a Source card at that!"

The young man in the blue robe's expression changed, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes: "Just who is this guy?"

"Who cares where he comes from? He's just one person, and we outnumber him three to one. Are we afraid of him?"

The young man in black frowned and said coldly.

With a sudden flick of his wrist, a massive mechanical snake, about three meters long and incredibly thick, emerged.

"go!"

The boy in black pointed in the direction Lin Mo was looking.

The next instant, the giant mechanical snake suddenly darted out, its long tail whipping straight at Lin Mo's body.

"clang!"

A muffled thud was heard, and a Vajra Shield appeared in front of Lin Mo at some unknown time.

The mechanical serpent's tail struck the Vajra Shield, causing it to tremble slightly, but it couldn't break through the defenses!

"So you had protective gear. No wonder my sneak attack was blocked!"

The young man in the blue robe looked enlightened, his gaze fixed on the slowly rotating Vajra Bracelet in front of Lin Mo.

A greedy glint shone in his hawk-like eyes: "What a find! After we take this guy down, his bracelet is mine!"

"Let's take him down first, this guy's a bit strange!"

The dull-witted boy frowned, his eyes flashing, as if he had made up his mind: "I'll go harass this guy, and you guys take the opportunity to deal with his Kaling."

Before he finished speaking, he lightly touched the ground with his toes and leaped out like an arrow.

He drew his iron sword and thrust it at Lin Mo through the air.

"You guys are bringing me equipment again. Looks like you never learn!"

A strange smile curved Lin Mo's lips, and then he suddenly raised his right hand.

As if it had a mind of its own, the Vajra Bracelet suddenly flew out and crashed into the iron sword that was flying towards it.

"clang!"

With a muffled thud, the Vajra Bracelet caught the iron sword in mid-air.

An incredibly powerful suction force emanated from the Vajra Bracelet, and in the next instant, the iron sword, just like the ruler before it, was drawn into the Vajra Bracelet's internal space.

"My Yin Iron Sword!"

The dull-witted boy stared at Lin Mo with bloodshot eyes, but dared not step forward again.

The young man in the blue robe was currently controlling Kaling to fight against the National Mourning Legion and the Mountain Ghost. Upon seeing this, his expression changed again: "It's that bracelet on his wrist. Everyone be careful, that thing can confiscate our equipment."

The black-clad youth's expression gradually turned serious: "This guy is quite strong. Everyone, go all out and finish this quickly to avoid attracting attention!"

With that, he flipped his wrist, and another card appeared.

With the sound of gears turning, a mechanical giant, three meters tall, suddenly appeared.

The young man in the green robe and the taciturn young man also summoned their own spirit cards.

The young man in the green robe summoned a burly werewolf, while the dull-witted young man summoned a voluptuous woman.

"I was hoping to play a little longer, but it seems your abilities are just so-so. It's time to end this farce!"

Lin Mo's gaze darkened, and his spiritual power surged forth like a tide.

The next instant, specks of purple light appeared on the bodies of the National Mourning Legion.

The purple light continued to gather, eventually detaching from the members of the National Mourning Legion and converging in the air to form the phantom images of bronze chariots.

Each of these chariots was about three meters tall, exuding an imposing aura.

The moment the bronze chariot appeared, it instantly absorbed the members of the National Mourning Legion.

They immediately formed a chariot and cavalry formation and charged straight at the numerous Kalings coming from the opposite direction.

It was incredibly fast, colliding with these card spirits in the blink of an eye.

"What kind of legion card is this? It can even summon a mount?"

A look of horror flashed in the eyes of the three, and they hurriedly activated their spiritual power.

Their kalpas brandished their weapons, trying to stop the chariot formation.

However, their actions were like a mayfly trying to shake a tree.

"Bang!"

With a deafening roar,

Several figures were instantly thrown into the air, disintegrating in mid-air and dissipating into specks of spiritual light.

At the same time, the cards in the hands of the three boys suddenly made a crisp sound, and a crack appeared directly on them.

Although it wasn't completely destroyed, it was utterly incapacitated.

If you want to use this card again in the future, you must first repair it.

However, card repair is extremely expensive.

The money spent is almost enough to make another card.

Furthermore, there is a limit to the number of times a card can be repaired.

Each card can only be repaired a maximum of three times; once this number is exceeded, it will be completely destroyed.

Moreover, it will always occupy a card slot.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, card makers generally will not allow their cards to suffer any damage.

"It's over!"

The three boys exchanged glances, each seeing the despair in the other's eyes.

They were now filled with deep regret.

If I had known this boy was so capable, I would have let him pass.

Why provoke him?

But there's never a second chance in this world.

Without giving the three boys a chance to escape, Lin Mo had an idea.

Several green vines shot out from the mountain spirit's palm, binding the three boys in front of him tightly.

With a wave of her jade hand, the mountain spirit sent the three youths flying into the air before crashing down in front of Lin Mo.

The face towels were blown off by the wind, revealing ordinary-looking faces.

Lin Mo glanced at it briefly before losing interest, then lazily extended his right hand and said, "Give it to me!"

"What is it?"

The three of them looked at each other, somewhat puzzled.

"What else could it be?"

Lin Mo snorted, a hint of impatience on his face: "Of course, it's your material cards."

"Material cards?"

The black-clad youth's eyes darted around, then he immediately shook his head, saying, "The three of us have been here ever since we entered the rift, and we haven't hunted any aberrations. Where would we get material cards?"

"Yes, yes, we don't have any resource cards!"

"No!"

The other two shook their heads upon seeing this.

"Do you think I'm a fool?"

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow, his expression instantly turning cold: "You'd better hand it over now if you know what's good for you, otherwise, if I find it, you'll have to consider the consequences!"

The boy in black shrugged, looking nonchalant: "Go ahead and search. If you find anything, it's all yours!"

"Yes, search freely, but if we don't find anything, can you let us go?"

"No, we're already your prisoners, why would we lie to you?"

Seeing the certainty in the eyes of the three,

A question arose in Lin Mo's mind: Did they really not have any material cards?

The idea had barely crossed his mind when Lin Mo dismissed it.

Judging from the way these three attacked, they were clearly veterans.

They've been lying in wait here, specifically targeting lone individuals; it's impossible that no one has fallen victim.

Therefore, they must have material cards on them.

But why were they so confident in letting me search them? Unless... the material card wasn't on them!

A glint flashed in Lin Mo's eyes, and with a thought, he immediately took out a small bottle from the Vajra Bracelet.

He shook the small bottle in his hand, a strange look on his face: "Do you know what this is?"

"What is this?"

The three of them asked instinctively.

"These are cow tears, meaning that cows will shed tears after taking them."

Lin Mo's lips curled into a wicked smile as he scanned the three of them with ill intent.

"Cow's tears? What nonsense!"

The young man in the blue robe got goosebumps from Lin Mo's gaze and frowned slightly.

The other two didn't say anything, but their bewildered looks clearly showed they didn't understand either.

"Don't you understand this? You guys seem really innocent!"

Lin Mo laughed and immediately explained, "The cow started crying during 'that' thing, what do you think it is?"

"aphrodisiac!"

The three of them turned deathly pale instantly.

"Bingo, you got it right!"

Lin Mo snapped his fingers and continued, "If I gave each of you a few drops and then locked all three of you up, guess what would happen next?"

"You're a demon, you're a demon!"

A hint of fear flashed in the black-clad youth's eyes, and his body began to tremble slightly.

The other two were in no better shape, their faces deathly pale.

Seeing that his intimidation had worked, Lin Mo said coldly, "I'm only giving you one chance now. Where are the material cards?"

"Under that rock behind!"

"That rock behind the sand dune!"

The three were completely terrified by Lin Mo and spoke up one after another.

"Why didn't you do this earlier? You forced me to use my trump card!"

Lin Mo snorted, and with a flash, walked behind the sand dune.

After crossing the sand dune and walking a few steps, he saw the rock, which was about the size of a millstone.

Lin Mo walked over and groped around under the rock for a while before finally finding a black package.

He opened it and was immediately stunned.

Inside, three stacks of material cards were neatly arranged.

Lin Mo counted them; there were a total of sixty-two material cards.

There are 32 green material cards, 25 blue material cards, and 5 purple material cards.

"Just how many people did these three guys rob?!"

Lin Mo gasped.

A surge of joy immediately welled up inside me; this time, the harvest was enormous!

With a wave of his hand, he put all the material cards into the Vajra Bracelet.

He then lightly touched the ground with his toes and returned to the three of them.

"You've had a good harvest!"

Lin Mo patted them on the shoulder and laughed, "I'm very satisfied!"

Upon hearing this, the three of them felt a sharp pain in their chests and nearly vomited blood on the spot.

He simply turned his head away, refusing to look at Lin Mo's face.

He was afraid that he would lose control of his anger and attack Lin Mo.

"Since you've been so generous in giving me the resource cards, I can't be the bad guy anymore. You're free!"

Lin Mo smiled slightly and ordered the mountain spirits to cut the vines binding them.

Then, it summoned the Wraith Boat and flew forward through the air.

In the blink of an eye, it turned into a black shadow and disappeared.

"I never imagined that someone who spends all their time hunting geese would end up having their eyes pecked out by one!"

The taciturn boy gave a bitter smile, looking as if he wanted to cry but couldn't.

"Sigh, I'm just not as skilled as them, there's nothing I can do!"

The young man in the blue robe also sighed.

The more excited I was before, the more upset I am now.

The boy in black didn't speak, but stared intently at Lin Mo's back, as if trying to imprint him into his mind.

The three men's faces flushed red and then turned pale. After a long while, they finally shook their heads and walked forward.

……

After flying for about five minutes in the Wraith Boat, Lin Mo finally arrived at the location of the temple on the map.

This is not a single temple, but a continuous complex of buildings.

There are more than twenty temples located here, covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters.

Anyone who sees it for the first time will be awestruck by its grandeur.

These temples are entirely constructed from some kind of unidentified dark gray rock.

Some of the exterior walls have collapsed, some lack a complete roof structure, and some only have broken stone pillars and arch frames remaining.

The only one truly intact was the central temple.

It has more than 130 stone pillars and covers an area of ​​more than 5,000 square meters.

The surface is entangled and eroded by a large number of thick vines, which have penetrated deep into the cracks and crevices of the rocks.

At the very center of the temple stands a stone archway about ten meters high, with a strange relief carving on its frame.

Upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be a distorted male figure completely integrated with the withered tree.

His body twisted into the shape of a tree trunk, his limbs transformed into branches, his bones intertwined with the wood grain, making him appear as a half-human, half-tree creature.

The inside of the archway was completely dark.

Just as Lin Mo was carefully examining the scene, a series of light footsteps suddenly sounded.

He turned around at the sound and saw a pair of tall, beautiful twins slowly walking over.

Behind them were two other people.

One of them was a tall, blond young man.

He is handsome, with a warm and welcoming smile that makes him easy to like.

As for the last one, he was a somewhat frail-looking young man with a very pale face who looked very much like the Empty Prince.
