Card: I Rebuild Five Thousand Years of Chinese Civilization in Another World

Chapter 133 Powerless
Having realized the importance of attributes, they became more cautious when selecting cards for their family members. Before distributing the cards, they conducted tests to find suitable cards for these family disciples as much as possible.

People have a more comprehensive understanding of cards, and Jie Yuwei's newly created cards are more popular.

The number of cards that Jie Yuwei can create is limited. People cannot obtain the cards she personally creates, but they can copy her cards.

Unbeknownst to her, her cards had become mainstream and highly sought after.

Just as the card game scene in mainland China was quietly changing, Jie Yuwei launched a new card.

This time, the number of new cards she created was astonishing.

Each card is marked with the logos of Nuwa mending the sky and illusions.

These cards shocked the world when they were released.

To fill the gaps in her attributes, Jie Yuwei crafted the following cards.

Basic cards with the gold attribute: Golden Horned Eagle, Golden Eagle, Golden Wildebeest

These cards are engraved with illusions. Once these cards are activated, the life experiences and habits of the card spirit will appear in the mind of the card spirit master.

In a split second, a Card Spirit Master can recognize the skills of the Card Spirits in a card and what kind of world they exist in.

Anyone who has activated these cards knows that these card spirits are demons.

It turns out that the demon race possesses such abilities, and the fantastical demon world is thus presented to the Card Spirit Masters.

Xie Yuwei's cards were copied by countless card makers, and the cards gradually spread all over the world.

Because Xie Yuwei's cards have always been sold publicly, unlike the major families who keep all these cards in their own hands.

Therefore, apart from actively investigating her identity, no force around the world wants to eliminate her.

As a result, Huang Yongqing was always able to protect her.

Jie Yuwei knew that the release of these cards would only introduce some new types of cards into the card game world and let people understand the attributes of the cards, but it would not alleviate the human race's demand for cards.

There are already few Card Spirit Masters on the mainland, and some Card Spirit Masters from poor families don't even have cards to use, which prevents the human race from improving its strength.

Humans will gradually find themselves at a disadvantage when fighting against monsters.

Jie Yuwei's goal is not only to innovate cards, but also to solve the plight of card spirit masters from poor families.

How can we make it possible for these poor card masters to use cards?
Xie Yuwei's mind turned to printing technology once again.

After innovating so many cards, she stopped researching cards and turned to studying the art of card printing.

When Xie Yuwei changed the direction of her research, the cardboard manufactured in Nanwen Village was also delivered to the Card Hall.

Because the cardstock has an energy-attracting effect, this cardstock is very popular among novice card makers.

The production volume in Nanwen Village is not large. This cardstock is only supplied to a limited number of students designated by the Card Making Institute of Fengyun Academy, and for internal use by the Card Spirit Hall.

Because everyone was praising the benefits of this cardstock, it quietly began to gain popularity in Tiansheng City. Time flies, and Xie Yuwei and her two siblings lived a good life in Tiansheng City.

Each of them has their own goals to strive for, and they are all growing quietly.

In a boundless desert, monsters swarmed and attacked an oasis.

The oasis's barrier has been broken, and the card masters stationed there are stubbornly resisting the invasion of these magical beasts.

"Master Lin, we can't hold on any longer, you should leave now!" A senior card spirit master said to Lin Zhixue in despair.

Jieyan also stayed by his wife's side, and through years of hard work, he has become a senior card spirit master.

Even after advancing to become a high-level Card Spirit Master, Jieyan was filled with regret.

Even if he advances, he won't be able to protect his wife.

Lin Zhixue, with a death-defying resolve, held up the array's core and said resolutely, "It's too late. The escape route has been destroyed by the demonic beasts, and we're surrounded."

"Unless a Saint-level Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros descends, we are powerless to reverse the situation!"

Looking at the overwhelming monsters, she said to those around her with remorse, "I'm sorry to everyone; we still haven't been able to develop an advanced dust-avoiding rhinoceros."

The area surrounding the Southern Wilderness is a vast desert, and the entire Southern Wilderness is a green space in this region.

Above this green area, there is a protective barrier that safeguards the entire Southern Wilderness.

Because of this barrier, the magical beasts outside the Southern Wilderness did not invade the entire human territory of the Southern Wilderness.

Tiansheng City was spared from attacks by a large number of powerful magical beasts.

The beast tides they usually encounter are just local magical beasts from the original mountain ranges of the Southern Wilderness.

This is why there are no Saint-level magical beasts outside of Nanwen Village, Zhoushan Town, Shuangbai Town, and Tiansheng City.

Even if a high-level magical beast appears, it will be reported by the patrolling Card Spirit Masters, and the local prefects will organize manpower to eliminate it.

The peace and tranquility of Tiansheng City is entirely due to the protection of this barrier.

This barrier has ninety-nine array eyes. As long as the energy of each array eye can operate normally, the barrier of the Southern Wilderness will not break.

These ninety-nine array points are distributed throughout the Southern Wilderness, some in the heart of mountains, some among people, and some in desolate deserts.

Those who guard these key points of the formation are the regular forces of the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.

The Card Spirit Masters in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion are all secretly trained by drawing talent from various families.

Lin Zhixue is one of them.

Three years ago, the Imperial Advisor's Office assigned her the task of guarding this key point of the formation.

The core of the formation is crucial to the safety of the entire Southern Wilderness, and she cannot refuse the summons from the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.

Even though she is a mother, the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion needs her, and she is willing to die for the people.

This is a desert, and to maintain the energy of the array's core, a pure water-attribute dust-avoiding rhinoceros is required.

To stabilize the power of the array's core, five high-level dust-avoiding rhinoceros cards are needed.

However, she was unable to replicate it.

Now that the formation is facing the crisis of collapse, five high-level Dust-Avoiding Rhino cards are not enough, unless a Saint-level Dust-Avoiding Rhino descends.

“Master Lin, how can this be your fault! It’s because the human race’s resources are too scarce!” Another high-level Card Spirit Master said, burning his life essence to guard the array’s core.

Over the years, as the attacks from monsters have become increasingly fierce, the resources of the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion and the number of Card Spirit Masters have become severely insufficient.

Otherwise, Lin Zhixue wouldn't be the one to guard this key point of the formation.
