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

Chapter 389 Seizing the Origin of the Water System

The elemental forces of water and fire collided, and the rising steam enveloped the surroundings like mist. After the black-robed man's water beast devoured the Vermilion Bird's spirit, it attempted to swallow Xie Yuwei as well.

Jie Yuwei hadn't expected the people from beyond the realm to be so powerful; even the Saint-level Vermilion Bird Card was useless against them.

Saint-level cards are useless, so let's use God-level cards!
"boom--!!!"

An ancient and terrifying pressure spread across the sea, and a majestic figure, exuding divine aura and impossible to look directly at, suddenly appeared.

The black-robed man's pupils constricted sharply. What was this?
Despite only being at the Celestial Realm level, he possessed the majesty of a God-Emperor.

The deity, wearing a crown and holding a sword, swung his sword at the man in black robes, who was immediately sent flying thousands of miles away like an ant.

Several members of the Heavenly Fiend Army stared at Xie Yuwei in shock. They could not look directly at the celestial being floating in the air, but they could feel his vast divine might.

What kind of card is this?
They were so excited that their very souls trembled.

-

The man in black robes was sent flying thousands of miles away, and the islands and reefs he crashed into were instantly annihilated.

When he was knocked to the bottom of the sea, he coughed up several mouthfuls of blood and essence, and sank to the bottom of the sea on the verge of death, barely clinging to life.

Xie Yuwei blinked.

She didn't expect Donghuang Card to be so powerful.

Seeing that the black-robed man who had sunk to the bottom of the sea was about to die, she summoned the Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros and had it pull the man from the seabed.

She knew nothing about the outside world and needed to find someone to ask her about it.

She sent the Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros down to retrieve the people, then walked over to several members of the Heavenly Fiend Army and took out several healing pills from her spatial storage to give to them.

"What happened? How did you find this person?"

The Tian Sha Army soldier who sent the message to Xie Yuwei was named Guan Run. After taking the healing pill, he recounted their encounter with the man in black robes.

"We chased several Saint-level magical beasts all the way to Hailan Kingdom, and then we cornered them at Shattered Star Islands."

"Just as we were about to take them down, we heard a demonic beast cry out, 'Lord Daoist, save me!'"

"Then the man in black robes rushed out of the island to kill us."

"Our Saint-level Golden Bell Shield was shattered by him. Seeing that the situation was not good, everyone immediately fled."

Xie Yuwei was surprised to hear this: "You actually escaped!"

Guan Run nodded: "We were surprised too."

"He's so strong, yet he didn't chase after us. He's definitely not being merciful and letting us go. He must have something important that he can't get away from."

"The demonic beast spoke in human language and called him Daojun. This is not a title used in our Haoran Realm. We then knew that he was from outside the realm."

"In order to find out his purpose in staying in the Shattered Star Islands, we exchanged for a stealth card and sneaked into the Shattered Star Islands to check the situation."

"Later we discovered that he would always dive into the water for a long time and not come up. When he did come up, the water element on his body was very strong, so we guessed that the source of water was hidden underwater."

"After that, your subordinates will convey the message to you through the Imperial Preceptor's Office and the Karing Hall."

The message was sent out in an urgent manner, with both the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion and the Kaling Hall utilizing the communication card function.

Using a communication card to transmit a message, it would take at least five or six days to reach Lingdu City from Hailan Kingdom.

Guan Run thought he wouldn't see his master for another two weeks, but to his surprise, his master rescued them here on the sixth day after the message was sent.

He didn't know how his master had gotten here from Lingdu City; the speed was beyond his comprehension.

When he saw that his master could summon cards of deities, he felt that nothing was impossible.

Their master was like a god. Jie Yuwei had already put away the Donghuang Card. She looked at Guan Run and asked, "When I arrived, I saw the man in black robes interrogating you about the whereabouts of the water element's origin. Did you find the water element's origin?"

Her gaze swept over the several members of the Heavenly Fiend Army, but she could not sense any aura of water element origin from them.

Guan Run nodded, then shook his head.

Jie Yuwei was puzzled. What did that mean?
Another member of the Heavenly Fiend Army explained, "After we guessed that there was a water element source hidden beneath the Shattered Star Islands, we used the Saint-level Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros Card to dive down and investigate."

"The water-attribute spiritual energy underwater is very concentrated. The Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros reacted strongly. Without us having to search, it led us to the vicinity of the water element."

"The source of the water system is shrouded in a mass of energy. We cannot touch it, but we can cultivate around it."

"The man in black robes saw us when he dived into the water to examine the source of the water system."

Guan Run nodded with a sigh: "We thought we would definitely die if we encountered him, but we didn't expect that he couldn't even get close to the source of the water system."

"There is an invisible barrier within a radius of 300 meters around the source of the water system, blocking him. No matter how hard he tries, he can't get close to the source of the water system, so we are safe."

Another member of the Heavenly Fiend Army continued, "Since he couldn't break the barrier, he started trying to trick us into handing over our source energy to him."

The two sides engaged in a verbal battle underwater for three days and three nights. Finally, the man in black robes was enraged by the Heavenly Fiend Army and began to attack the barrier.

Under the powerful energy impact, a member of the Heavenly Fiend Army was blown away by the shockwave. He accidentally bumped into the energy shield of the Water Element Source, causing the Water Element Source to shift its position.

Seeing that this allowed him to move the source of the water element, the man in black began to attack the barrier frantically.

He turned the entire waterway upside down.

The source of the water system was swept out of the barrier by the impact of the rapid current. The man in black robes gave chase, but the Heavenly Fiend Army blocked his way.

In the water, the Heavenly Fiend Army, wielding the Saint-level Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros, was like fish in water, while the black-robed man was busy seizing the water element source. Guan Run kicked the water element source away with one kick.

The waters of the Shattered Star Islands have been stirred up by the black-robed man, and the source of the water element was kicked away and disappeared without a trace.

The man in black robes panicked. He knew that the Heavenly Fiend Army's Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros could sense the location of the water element's origin, which led to the scene that Jie Yuwei witnessed.

After listening to their story, Jie Yuwei unleashed her divine sense to explore the entire area.

With the faint senses of the Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros, she discovered the location of the source of the water element.

As if sensing Jie Yuwei's gaze, the source of the water system shot towards her like a shooting star.

It sensed the presence of its companion on Jie Yuwei.

Jie Yuwei was surprised that this wisp of water elemental energy was so active, and had even developed spiritual consciousness.

Its appearance is far superior to that of the plant origin and the divine metal origin.

"Wow!"

The Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros pulled the man in black robes from the seabed. On the verge of death, he opened his eyes and saw the water elemental source actively entering Xie Yuwei's body.

"puff--!"

He spat out another mouthful of blood.

This was the source he had searched far and wide to find. He had descended from the Spirit Realm just to obtain this wisp of source, but unexpectedly, this wisp of source recognized him as its master right under his nose.

Unwilling!
"puff!"

He spat out another mouthful of blood.

Xie Yuwei walked to his side and looked down at him.

This was a young man who looked to be in his early twenties, with an air of effeminacy about him. When Xie Yuwei looked at him, he looked back at her with a complicated expression.
