Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 1008: Chapter 310 The Expert is Stable_3

That is to say, someone on the other side of the Void Door is coming through!

The Thorny Snake Corps is just the vanguard, and the Southern Continent has top-level Card Masters.

The one coming now is definitely not an ordinary powerhouse.

As soon as the door cracked open a sliver, a terrifying Dragon’s Might instantly leaked out.

Leonard Churchill, like a cat with its tail stepped on, had all his hairs stand on end.

It was a kind of pressure he had never felt before.

The hostility was undisguised, piercing like needles, forcing one to avert their gaze.

“Exactly which tier is it?”

Leonard was pinned down by that Dragon’s Might, unable to move a muscle.

He was already on thin ice, as if he could fall into an ice cave at any moment.

But at this moment, a sense of excitement arose from deep within him.

Looking up at the scenery from the peak of the world, the world in his eyes became clearer.

In the instant his thoughts froze, the Great Snake snorted coldly, “Hmph! A Ninth-Order Card Master from the Southern Continent… Overreaching so far, do you really think you can show off in front of this entity?”

The White Dragon understood the significance of a Card Master’s heritage better than most.

Though those Dragon Descendants of the Southern Continent were strong, in its eyes, they were nothing more than servants enslaved by dragons.

It certainly wouldn’t let these fellows be killed off

Before the aura from inside the Void Door could run rampant, the Great Snake’s oppressive force pushed back just as fiercely.

The person behind the door seemed to sense the danger and didn’t dare to show up rashly. Taking advantage of the crack in the Void Door, a dragon claw reached out and swiftly pulled Thorne toward the gap.

However, because Thorne’s lower half was frozen into the ice, this violent tug directly tore his legs off.

The person behind the door didn’t seem prepared to be so cautious, thinking that this was the only way to rescue from afar.

With a “rip,” blood and ice froth splattered through the air, and Thorne’s upper half shot into the Void Door.

The Space Rift instantly healed, and that domineering Dragon’s Might also vanished without a trace.

…

“Escaped?”

Leonard watched the disappearing space door, the pressure vanishing on the spot.

This was good news for them.

However, the White Snake overhead looked at the place where the Void Door had vanished, its gaze equally grave.

Although it had repelled the enemy, in that moment of clashing auras, it too sensed that the other party was very strong.

And furthermore, there was more than one powerful aura.

Of course, it also didn’t know that in the faraway Southern Continent, at the headquarters of the Holy Church in the Ariel Empire, Pope Bolarante and several Red Robed Archbishops looked at Thorne’s half-remaining corpse, their faces darkening in unison.

Coming to his senses, Leonard certainly didn’t forget the proprieties, saluting to the Great Snake in the sky, “Thank you, senior, for saving our lives.”

Sophia Jones at his side also said, “Thank you, Ancestral Spirit, for saving our lives.”

This White Snake was the Immortal Aegis Animal contracted by the White Family’s ancestors three thousand years ago; for all descendants of the White Family, addressing it as “Ancestral Spirit” was absolutely correct in terms of seniority.

The White Dragon glanced over at Leonard without paying much attention and then turned its gaze to Sophia, nodding slightly, “Hmm.”

It seemed quite satisfied with its chosen host, speaking again, “You, girl, are not bad.”

Facing a top-tier being, and one entwined with her fate and bloodline as an Ancestral Spirit, Sophia didn’t dare take any liberties, “Ancestral Spirit, you…”

But before she could say more, the White Dragon impatiently interrupted, “No need for niceties. I just didn’t want to take advantage of you youngsters, consider my intervening as a trade for that offering you made.”

“…”

Sophia listened with a slightly awkward expression.

Leonard, standing beside her, kept silent.

Neither had a hint of temper.

Such behavior was understandable for a Top Tier Immortal Aegis Animal.

The fact that it stepped in to help was already showing them much favor.

To foolishly think of using any contract to bind it was pure fantasy.

But considering the difficulty of encountering such an expert, Leonard was not about to let this opportunity slip away.

Moreover,

The fact that the other party did not disappear on the spot actually left room for conversation.

Leonard guessed that the Great Snake was probably curious about the current state of the White Family, or perhaps about his own situation.

But a senior has their pride, and some things need the junior to bring up.

Leonard took the initiative to ask, “Excuse me, senior, I have a question…”

The White Dragon indeed knew what he wanted, answering directly, “You want to ask about the Jar that fellow just took away?”

Continuing, it answered its own question, “It’s just an empty Jar, nothing significant.”

Empty?

Leonard Churchill listened and inexplicably sighed in relief.

Although he didn’t know the purpose of those from the Southern Continent seeking the jar.

But he definitely couldn’t let them get it so easily.

However, another problem arose.

The jar was empty; where was the Outer God that was originally sealed inside?

Leonard Churchill directly asked, “Senior, what about… the Outer God that was sealed inside?”

The White Dragon casually said, “That jar sealed the ‘Plague Source Tacapala.’ Its divinity was burned clean by the Lamp of Ten Thousand Immortals for thousands of years. Just a piece of ‘Godhood’ remained, which I took by the way…”

The tone of this great snake was casual, yet it revealed several extremely explosive pieces of information.

Godhood?

Divinity burned away?

Casually mentioning the name of an Outer God?

Leonard Churchill listened and his eyes flickered with thought.

Could it be that an Outer God can be killed?

The White Dragon saw through his thoughts and directly said, “The Plague Law is one of the oldest Universe Laws. Plagues are something that will never disappear. That ‘Plague Source Tacapala’ was one of the most venomous and dangerous Old Day Rulers from the previous era. The problem has only been temporarily solved, but in the future, He will inevitably make a comeback.”

“…”

Leonard Churchill listened thoughtfully, his thoughts automatically beginning to speculate.

Old Day Rulers?

The previous era?

What was this situation?

Leonard Churchill’s understanding of “world history” seemed to suddenly expand further, with countless thoughts branching out.

Before he could ponder any longer, the White Dragon, as if seeing through something, muttered, “Your ability reminds me of something familiar… It looks like that detestable fellow I once encountered. Oh, right, the ‘Pursuer of Light’ from the Illumination Secret Society. That guy was using this ability…”

As it spoke, the creature mumbled to itself, “No wonder. I was wondering how you found me earlier…”

“…”

Leonard Churchill didn’t dare speak anymore.

He even restrained all his thoughts.

In the presence of such an existence, it felt as if everything he did lacked any semblance of privacy.

Even his thoughts were seen through.

Naturally, the White Dragon had no interest in prying into the secrets of a low-rank card master. Looking at Leonard Churchill and Sophia Jones, there was a slightly odd glint in its vertical pupils. “Heh heh, it really is strange. The ‘God-stealing Ring,’ a Supreme treasure of the White Family, is in the hands of you, an outsider, while that God Stealer origin card has merged with another, and yet the ‘Immortal Laws Secret Scroll’ is in the hands of another group from the White Family… The weaker a family is, the more chaotic things become.”

“…”

Hearing this sarcastic remark, both Leonard Churchill and Sophia Jones didn’t know how to reply.

The ring was found.

The origin card was merged with by chance.

Honestly, they were indeed “outsiders” to the White Family.

But the White Dragon wasn’t interested in pursuing the matter; it only cared about its own host.

Glancing at Sophia Jones, it couldn’t hide its disdain as it said, “Also, you girl, despite having pretty good talent, you’ve only learned the secret skills of the White family half-heartedly, even botching a sacrifice ceremony…”

Although the Immortal Aegis Animals have long lifespans, their cultivation is extremely slow.

They must have a host to assist with their cultivation.

Moreover, it had reached the final steps and needed a host with sufficient potential to have the chance to advance further.

The Sixth-Tier host before it clearly did not meet its expectations.

Sophia Jones listened to the critique about herself, and even with her usual grace and composure, she couldn’t hide her awkwardness in front of this entity, saying, “I’ve disappointed the Ancestral Spirit…”

“Enough…”

Although the White Dragon wasn’t satisfied, it had no other choice.

Becoming one who could merge with the God Stealing origin card was certainly not too bad.

Like a snake that had lingered for too long, it was accustomed to talking to itself.

Thinking of something, it continued, “You shouldn’t wander around aimlessly during this time. Focus on learning the secret skills of the God Stealer Sequence… Let me think, there should still be some ancestral lands of the White Family in the Central Continent. I’ll give you a few addresses; go find them yourself. Also, get your hands on the ‘Immortal Laws Secret Scroll’ on your own; that thing is very important for your future promotion to a high tier… Don’t bother me if it’s nothing important, and I won’t respond to you. Whenever you can summon me out with your own power through a contract, then we can talk about other matters…”

Sophia Jones quickly said, “Many thanks to the Ancestral Spirit.”

Leonard Churchill also felt elated upon hearing this.

This support was stable indeed.

Though the great snake’s words sounded disdainful and distant, the world itself was cruel.

Strong card masters are not produced by seniors who pre-chew food and feed it to their descendants.

Rather, they grow on their own amidst crises.

The fact that the great snake was willing to give pointers was already the best outcome.
