Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin.

Chapter 291 Mystery in the Small Town
Aside from being somewhat dilapidated, the town still looked quite decent.

Zhang Jingtian even felt that this place was very suitable for retirement.

The town was eerily quiet, and even the crunching of the fallen leaves under his feet was so clear.

However, this was not scary at all for Zhang Jingtian, who had already experienced too much; he had even gotten used to it all.

The drought demon looked around and could quickly identify the aura of any of its kind.

Clearly, there are no similar species here.

The drought demon slowly walked forward, and Zhang Jingtian felt a sense of doubt.

What on earth does this guy want to do?
In terms of raw power, that one card far surpasses his.

Logically speaking, this guy should have rushed out right now and given him a good beating.

But now it's hiding. Anyone who doesn't know better would think it's afraid of itself.

After the thought flashed through Zhang Jingtian's mind, he immediately laughed, thinking, "How could that be?"

No matter how powerful he is, he is still just a legendary card maker in essence, and all the cards under his command are just black cards.

Compared to colored cards, the difference is still quite obvious.

Color cards, on the other hand, are often highly regarded by their owners.

After all, they have already reached the top of the food chain and have no rivals who can suppress them.

Therefore, Zhang Jingtian felt that something was amiss, and that this colored card must be plotting something.

However, according to the contents of the encyclopedia, Zhang Jingtian couldn't even discern any information about the colored card; it was far too mysterious.

Even though it appeared many times, no one had ever seen its true face, which was what made Zhang Jingtian most uneasy.

I wonder if this guy is gathering his strength, preparing to deliver a fatal blow.

Zhang Jingtian came to his senses and found himself standing in front of the only tall building in the town.

This tall building is also the only trading company in the town.

After seeing it, Zhang Jingtian realized that this place might be what he was looking for.

So Zhang Jingtian took the drought demon with him and headed towards the trading company.

As usual, the drought demon headed towards the trading company first.

However, to Zhang Jingtian's surprise, the trading company's doors were closed to him.

Moreover, a powerful force pushed the drought demon away violently.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Jingtian displayed a strange expression.

He never expected that the drought demon would be stopped, and that this thing's power would actually be able to keep the drought demon outside.

At this moment, Zhang Jingtian realized a strong possibility: the monster he had been searching for might be behind this door.

And the other party might be waiting for him behind the door, like prey.

At that moment, a strange expression flashed across Zhang Jingtian's face.

Is this thing so powerful?
Zhang Jingtian then summoned his other heroic spirits.

At this moment, the drought demon, who rarely spoke, also spoke:

"I was blocked. The force inside was very strong and pushed me away. I couldn't get in at all."

Upon hearing Hanba's words, Daheitian frowned.

They are both top-tier cards and are well aware of each other's strength.

Although the drought demon may look foolish, it is actually incredibly powerful in combat.

If he were to confront the drought demon head-on, he wouldn't have much of a chance of winning.

Therefore, at this moment, Daheitian truly felt a sense of unease.

An opponent capable of completely excluding them is probably even more powerful than that eyeball from before.

"Let me give it a try." At this moment, the Monkey King picked up his staff and smashed it towards the door.

However, this pillar of strength can no longer even break through this seemingly crumbling door.

They were kept out just like that.

The Monkey King's expression also became strange.

He analyzed the situation and said:

"My power wasn't actually unleashed; instead, it was absorbed by this door."

It's strange; I've never encountered anything like this before.

Hearing what the Great Sage Equaling Heaven said, the Great Black Heaven beside him also decided to give it a try.

When she finally focused all her power into her hand and pushed it out completely, she never expected that her power would be absorbed by this ordinary door.

"Indeed!"

Then, for the first time, these heroic spirits united and used their power.

However, no matter how powerful their original cards were, now that they were united, they were unable to do anything to the door in front of them.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingtian didn't know what to say.

He had no choice but to walk to the wooden door himself.

Just as Zhang Jingtian was about to examine the wooden door in front of him, something unexpected happened.

The wooden door opened automatically in a flash.

At this moment, several heroic spirits were preparing to go in with Zhang Jingtian, but unexpectedly they were once again blocked outside.

Zhang Jingtian immediately understood the current situation.

This wooden door really does look like it can only allow one person to pass through at a time.

Moreover, even if he himself enters the door, he probably won't be able to summon the heroic spirit.

This situation caused Zhang Jingtian some trouble.

At that moment, a wise yet aged voice came from behind the door:

"You came."

Faced with such a greeting, Zhang Jingtian felt not even the slightest ripple in his heart.

"You're the monster who disguised himself as a bus and killed everyone?"

"Kill them? No, I just brought them to another world, a paradise."

Zhang Jingtian scoffed: "You can't fool me with that. Why do you think I would come in knowing I'd lost my powers here?"

"Because you want the answer."

The other party calmly said, "You want to know my position and purpose. And if I really wanted to kill you, you would be dead now, and I don't need to waste my time here."

Upon hearing the other person's words, Zhang Jingtian fell silent.

Because what this person said was correct, he couldn't even refute it.

"Okay, I'll come in."

After Zhang Jingtian entered, he found himself back at the entrance of the town.

However, the town had become vibrant, and he saw many passengers who had just lost their lives on the bus.

Unexpectedly, they reappeared here.

"Is this a fantasy?"

"No, it's not that. They are indeed dead, but I gathered their souls together and made them into dolls so that they can continue to live."

Don't you think this is quite a happy situation for them? Here, they've essentially achieved immortality.
