312: Make card! 【Three-legged Golden Crow】! (Monthly ticket requested!)

Jiang Yuan took out the reward for the Four School Joint Examination champion.

That purple quality Card Quality Enhancement Card.

Using the Card Quality Enhancement Card was very simple.

You just had to place the Card Quality Enhancement Card on top of the card whose quality you wanted to enhance.

The purple card was placed on top of the blue quality card.

As the purple light transferred, the card on top gradually disappeared, and the blue light of the card below slowly turned purple.

In just a moment, the card quality enhancement was complete.

Looking at the card with the purple border floating in front of him, Jiang Yuan eagerly picked it up to check its information.

【Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda】 (Unique)

Quality: Purple

Type: Equipment Card

Skills:

【Unbreakable】: To break through this pagoda's defense, the attack Energy must be one level higher than the user, and its quality must be one grade higher than this equipment.

【Indestructible】: Defense is doubled, and it is consistent inside and out.

【Contain】: Can contain the selected target within the pagoda until either the inside or outside of the pagoda is broken.

【Strike】: Can be thrown to attack opponents, causing damage and stun effects.

Enhancement:

【Weapon Addition】: Each suitable weapon added can increase the Linglong Pagoda's abilities and increase that ability's attack by ten percent.

Advancement Path: 【Linglong Pagoda】 — 【Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda】 — 【Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda】 — 【Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda】.

Advancement Conditions: Unknown.

After reading the card's information, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

If he had used the Card Quality Enhancement Card to upgrade this card when it was still white quality, then...

Now this card would be fully capable of withstanding the attacks of red quality cards.

What a pity.

Jiang Yuan shook his head, but then a smile appeared on his face.

He wasn't the type of person who was discontent; the current situation was already much better.

At least it was much better than the 【Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda】 completely turning into an offensive equipment in the end.

"How is it?"

"It's a success."

Facing Old Monarch's inquiry, Jiang Yuan nodded to him and handed him the card in his hand.

"Not bad."

Old Monarch took the card, glanced at it, and then nodded: "Then let me hold onto this card for now. I'll see if I can add a defensive skill for you."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you!"

Jiang Yuan was very excited. After the card quality was enhanced, more types of skills could be attached.

However, because the blue quality 【Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda】 was skewed towards offense, the skills originally attached were basically all offensive.

But Jiang Yuan wasn't really interested in offensive skills, so in the end, he chose this control-oriented skill.

After resolving the matter of the 【Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda】, Jiang Yuan began to read again.

He couldn't afford to mess up the cultural class exam a week later.

...

...

"Jiang Yuan, is the exam over?"

"There's one last subject this afternoon. What's up?"

"I've found all the card-making materials. Should I give them to you now or tonight?"

"Tonight."

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Yuan decided to receive those material cards tonight.

Otherwise, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to calm down for the afternoon exam.

The one who came to deliver the materials this time was still Huang Huanqing.

Although he had delivered a batch of materials last time, the crafting failed then.

Later, after discussing with Old Monarch, he finally understood where the problem lay.

The Three-legged Golden Crow was, after all, fire-attributed, and still needed some "fire" as a raw material.

So Jiang Yuan explained to Huang Huanqing that in addition to the four materials from last time, they also needed to add a 【Dark Sun Fire】.

This was the most suitable purple quality material card Jiang Yuan had seen when searching through the Material Encyclopedia.

And Huang Huanqing did not disappoint Jiang Yuan; in less than a week, all the materials were ready.

After turning off his mobile terminal, Jiang Yuan walked towards the examination hall.

It was the last exam. As soon as it was over, he could prepare for his plan.

...

...

"Are you going to prepare for card crafting?"

"Yes."

"Golden Crow?"

"Hmm, he told me at noon today that the materials would be sent over soon."

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, Old Monarch nodded: "I see."

"Perfect, let me tell you something."

"What?"

"I need this."

Old Monarch held the heavenly material and earthly treasure Encyclopedia borrowed from the library and pointed to a lei mang carrot shining with blue electric light for Jiang Yuan to see.

"This is, a lei mang carrot?"

"Yes, that's it."

Jiang Yuan looked up at Old Monarch, his eyes filled with confusion.

"This purple quality lei mang carrot is one of the raw materials for the pill I'm going to refine next."

Old Monarch closed the book: "Making some pills with four other purple quality heavenly material and earthly treasure can increase your physical fitness."

Old Monarch said, patting Jiang Yuan's arm: "Although your myasthenia recovered due to the pill, and it recovered very quickly with no major impact."

"However, there's still some muscle atrophy that started this year. Your current physical fitness is even worse than an ordinary person's; you need to exercise."

"But, if I need to exercise, can't I just exercise by myself?"

Jiang Yuan was a little confused. In his opinion, with just this bit of muscle atrophy, he should recover quickly by gradually running and exercising.

"Indeed, your cultural class grades still need some improvement."

Old Monarch shook his head, pointing to a book over there: "Haven't you read that book yet?"

"No, what's wrong? That's for the year-end exam, not this one." Jiang Yuan was a bit bewildered, not quite understanding what Old Monarch meant.

"You can read that book; it's written in there."

Old Monarch said, and seeing Jiang Yuan about to get up to grab the book, he waved his hand: "Never mind, never mind, I'll just tell you."

"When you break through to the Sixth Realm Shi Shen, there's a process of body reshaping, right?"

"That's right."

Jiang Yuan nodded. Everyone who cultivated knew about body reshaping in the Sixth Realm Shi Shen.

"But do you know that the physical strength before body reshaping is related to the physical strength after reshaping?"

Old Monarch looked at Jiang Yuan, shaking his head slightly: "Just like your original myasthenia-affected body, even after experiencing body reshaping, it only reached a stage slightly stronger than an ordinary person."

"And if your current body isn't exercised, and you undergo body reshaping in its current state, you'll end up being weaker than an ordinary person in the Sixth Realm."

If calculated by data, a normal adult is considered one.

Then Jiang Yuan is currently 0.8.

If a normal adult's physical strength is 20 after breaking through to the Sixth Realm Shi Shen, Jiang Yuan would only be sixteen.

This is the difference.

"So Old Monarch means that before I break through to the Sixth Realm Shi Shen, I should try my best to improve my physical fitness?"

"Yes, that's right."

Old Monarch nodded: "According to my estimation, and what is recorded in that book, although it's not explicitly stated, it's highly likely that after body reshaping, physical fitness is multiplied based on the physical fitness before reshaping."

"In this situation, the stronger the foundation, the stronger it will be after doubling."

"If handled properly, you might even surpass Shi Ji's physical fitness."

Old Monarch's words also made Jiang Yuan fall into deep thought.

After all, whether it was Old Monarch's judgment or the records in the book, both roughly indicated that body reshaping would multiply physical fitness.

And with this consistent multiplicative increase, naturally, the higher the foundation, the greater the increase.

Don't look at Jiang Yuan's current physical fitness, which isn't much different from a normal person's.

But the proportional enhancement after body reshaping would completely reveal this gap.

Just like Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan now.

One is 0.8, the other is 1.0.

Their bare-handed combat power is still similar.

But after proportional enhancement, one becomes 16, the other 20.

In this situation, it's not about being able to fight two Jiang Yuans, but at least defeating Jiang Yuan would be easier.

This is the problem.

"Then, where can I find lei mang carrots?"

"It's written on there, didn't you see?"

Old Monarch looked at Jiang Yuan in surprise, but Jiang Yuan also saw the teasing in Old Monarch's eyes.

"Old Monarch, just tell me directly."

Seeing Jiang Yuan's somewhat helpless expression, Old Monarch stroked his beard and laughed.

"Don't worry, it won't disrupt our original plan."

"This was originally the most suitable purple quality heavenly material and earthly treasure I selected based on our original plan."

"You mean?"

"That's right, the lei mang carrot is naturally in the Element Spirit Race's grotto-heaven that we are preparing to go to."

"Oh, that's even better."

Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded, a sigh of relief in his heart.

Although he had already solved the problem of his myasthenia, he was still very much looking forward to breaking through to the Sixth Realm Shi Shen.

He had already been delayed for a long time due to his teacher's words.

If he were to be delayed for another period of time, Jiang Yuan felt that he might truly become anxious.

"Alright, enough talk. The materials have arrived. You craft the card first, and after crafting is done, we'll discuss when to depart."

Looking at a mechanical bird flying past the window, Old Monarch, accustomed to it, waved his hand at Jiang Yuan and returned to sit cross-legged in front of his Bagua Furnace.

"Oh, right, remember to ask Zhao Gongming for some luck when crafting the card. Your luck is very bad today."

"Okay."

Jiang Yuan nodded, got up to the window, and received a Backpack Card from the mechanical flying bird.

Old Monarch's presence meant he didn't have to open blind boxes to test his luck anymore.

According to Old Monarch, this was an ability called 'Aura Reading'.

Hmm, Jiang Yuan didn't have the talent to learn this.

Jiang Yuan had already asked when Old Monarch first displayed Aura Reading.

And then Old Monarch told him this.

Old Monarch also said that Aura Reading couldn't see oneself, so even if he learned it, it would be useless.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan immediately felt much better.

What Old Monarch said must be true!

It's useless for me to learn this, not that I don't have the ability to learn this!

After the mechanical flying bird left, Jiang Yuan opened the Backpack Card it delivered.

Inside were the five material cards sent by Huang Huanqing.

All of them were S-grade purple quality material cards.

After looking them over once, Jiang Yuan began to prepare for card crafting.

First, he called Zhao Gongming. After Zhao Gongming used 【Autumn Plague - Five Ghosts Carrying Wealth】 to transfer all the accumulated luck of the past few days to Jiang Yuan, he then walked to the side, watching Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan turned to look at Old Monarch, and after seeing Old Monarch nod at him, he relaxed.

Then he began crafting the card.

First step of card crafting: Drawing!

Just like last time, Jiang Yuan's drawing was no different.

The background was a desert, a Gobi desert, with nine suns in the sky.

Next was the main subject.

The main subject was a black crow, but it had three legs.

Next to the black crow was a shimmering large tree.

The tree grew in water that was half black and half green.

This was Ruomu.

After completing the card drawing, the next step was signing.

Jiang Yuan's heart was calm as he directly signed the card's name.

After all, he had experienced it once before, and neither the drawing nor the signing had failed.

This time, he just needed to follow the steps.

As the signing ended, the card immediately shone with light.

Immediately after, Jiang Yuan opened his eyes, and a blank card appeared before him.

Looking at the Three-legged Golden Crow in the card, Jiang Yuan smiled.

Then he began the final step!

Material card fusion!

The first four material cards were ones he had used before.

S-grade purple quality Summon Card: 【Blazing Crow Spirit】!

S-grade purple quality Material Card: 【Sunfall Rock】!

S-grade purple quality Summon Card: 【Three-toed Bird】!

A-grade purple quality Material Card: 【Sunrise Smoke】!

The four material cards respectively represented the crow, the sun, the three-toed bird, and smoke.

The last material card was also an S-grade purple quality material card.

【Dark Sun Fire】!

A card that perfectly combined fire and the sun.

The fusion of the first four cards into the blank card went without any problems.

Jiang Yuan's gaze now turned to the last card.

S-grade purple quality Material Card: 【Dark Sun Fire】!

Black flames, paired with a black crow!

Jiang Yuan felt a little uncertain in his heart.

Old Monarch and Zhao Gongming were both watching this scene.

Hesitating for only a second, Jiang Yuan reached out.

He fused the last material card into the blank card as well.

The blank card already had the shining sun, Ruomu, and the background.

As the last material card integrated, the only dim part, the three-legged black crow above Ruomu, also began to shine.

At first, it was just white light.

And as the white light spread across the entire card, purple light also began to shine!

The card was complete!

Jiang Yuan suppressed the excitement in his heart, looking at the purple quality card floating and rotating in front of him.

"Quick, check the card information!"

Old Monarch spoke at this moment, saying to Jiang Yuan.

"Okay."

Jiang Yuan reached out and took the card, and its information appeared before his eyes.
