Chapter 351: Spiritual Law Card Game (Part 3)

“Spirit Law Card·Command, target Yang Yu.”

“Ah, wait…”

One of Yang Yu’s two cards was drawn away.

Tang Si revealed the card; it was a Physical Law Card·Life, which could restore one health point—quite a nice card.

“Yong Fa, Fire Card.”

Tang Si quickly shifted her target, attacking Yong Fa. If she could take out one person early, she would. Plus, with the hate targeting her, the chance of her being attacked was quite low.

“Water Card.”

Yong Fa’s last card happened to block the attack.

“Pfft…”

Tang Si used the Fire Card simply because she could only use a Fire Card, not expecting it to block the attack.

She placed her hand on her character card and studied the description.

『Balance of Good and Evil·Huo Yang: One of the nine 2nd Level members, number 21, a founding elder of Tomorrow Society, who established the core laws of Tomorrow Society. During Huo Yang’s character card phase, he can consume one Fire Card to activate Sky Fire, attacking two adjacent targets.』

Huo Yang, a past 1st member, gave up her position to let others take over and went to the frontlines. She is a great person and Tang Si’s idol.

Tang Si was pleasantly surprised to draw this card. As she thought about it, she began to smile:

“Yong Fa, your mother is one of the few women who can be compared to Captain Huo Yang, but I won’t go easy on you… Activate the Spirit Law·Sky Fire!”

“Targeting Tian Jialun and Yong Fa.”

Tian Jialun’s health: 4→3.

Yong Fa’s health: 2→1.

Yang Yu couldn’t help but clap: “Well done!”

Even though one card was stolen, both Yong Fa and Tian Jialun lost one health point each, which was worth it.

“Ha, I’m far from dead! Next turn, you two are finished!”

Tian Jialun scowled.

“Do you think Yong Fa will let you go?”

Tang Si laughed, covering her mouth, “Turn ended, it’s your turn, Wei Yang.”

“Second round begins, draw cards.”

Each person drew one card, and soon they had five cards.

Yun Ye revealed his hand.

Divine Body Fire Fire Earth.

(Previously, it was mistakenly written as six cards; the Earth Card was already removed, so Yun Ye now has five cards.)

『Spirit Law Card·Command: Control the opponent’s consciousness with Spirit Law. If the opponent has no counter cards to resist, you can draw one card from them.』

『Physical Law Card·Thick Earth Sky: Can create the phenomenon of Thick Earth Sky, consuming one Earth Element Spiritual Law Card to block one point of damage.』

(Removed the rule that only specific Spiritual Roots can use phenomena; now any character card can use them.)

“Phenomenon·Thick Earth Sky.”

Only one phenomenon can be equipped.

“Spirit Law Card·Command, Yong Fa?”

Yun Ye was trying to trick Yong Fa again.

But this time, Yong Fa had a counter card: “Spirit Sense Block!”

『Spirit Law Card·Spirit Sense Block: Nullifies the effects of Spirit Law cards.』

“Looks like you’re out of luck; turn ended.”

Yun Ye placed down his card.

“Here I come, Yong Fa! Phenomenon, Bright Gold Sky! Consume one Gold Card; the next card’s damage will increase by one!”

“Die, Wood Card!”

“Gold Card, defense.”

“……”

“Ha ha ha ha ha ha…”

A burst of loud laughter filled the room.

Tian Jialun’s forehead throbbed with veins as he helplessly threw down two cards: “Two cards transform into one Wood Card, activating Tian Yu’s Spiritual Law ‘Rice Tree.’ Turn ended.”

“Don’t glare at me; it’s not an accident! I still have another Gold Card—plus, you’re finished!” Yong Fa revealed his card.

This was the eighth Gold Card.

With a total of one hundred basic cards, there are only ten of each element. Yong Fa had drawn half of them, which was a very small chance.

“Gold + Water and additionally consume one Spiritual Law card, activating Dual Attributes·Heavenly Thunder!”

『Heavenly Thunder: Lock onto one target to unleash thunder strikes, causing two points of damage, lasting three turns.』

If not countered, this would be the most powerful Dual Attribute Law in the entire game, totaling six points of damage.

“Fire and Earth…”

Tian Jialun’s lips twitched. If he hadn’t spent two cards to draw, he might still have been able to block it, but now he was down to one card!

And it wasn’t even a Spirit Law card that could nullify attacks!

Tian Jialun’s health: 3→1.

“No way, Tian Jialun, are you going to be the first to die again…”

Wu Xianzhang exclaimed in shock.

“I know right! If those three weren’t ganging up on me, I wouldn’t be in this position!”

Tian Jialun almost spat out blood.

His card-playing experience had been terrible.

“It’s not a big deal; next turn, just use Wood, and I’ll recover fully in a brief moment.”

Yun Ye laughed.

“Does he still have another turn?”

“Fire Card.”

Yong Fa attacked Tian Jialun again.

Then…

“Without a Water Card, life reaches zero. Because of the Rice Tree, only skip the next turn before reviving and do not enter a complete death state.”

Tang Si judged.

Tian Jialun looked pretty pitiful, but the two Rice Trees could force through two turns. The chance of drawing a Physical Law Card to restore health during those two turns was quite high, so he still had a good chance of survival.

“Restore a bit of health; turn ended.”

Yong Fa said.

Health: 1→2.

Hand cards: 0.

“Die.”

Wu Xianzhang continuously attacked Yong Fa, forcing him out of the game. Without anyone to save him, Yong Fa became the first character to die.

“Character card is dead; it enters a solid state before the next turn starts.”

“After the next turn begins, Yong Fa enters the second character card stage, reducing the conversion cost of spirit cards from two to one.”

Time moved forward.

The spirit energy card game can’t be deemed balanced; there are definitely ways to take down a character card in one set.

But it’s a festival, so it should be fun.

Soon, the second and third turns ended, and most people’s character cards were heavily injured or even dead.

As the third turn ended and the fourth turn began, the full details of the second character cards had not yet been revealed, entering the second phase.

With a total of one hundred cards in a deck, if six players are involved, it means each can only draw cards for three turns, so every three turns is one character round, allowing the second character card to be revealed.

Each character card has five health points and can be used simultaneously with the previous character card. Once a second character card is introduced, special mechanisms are activated.

For example, what originally required two cards to transform into one designated attribute spirit law card now only needs one card.

Or, one can use combined attack moves.

In a united state, both sides can put forth part of their spirit law cards, creating more interesting effects through their combined strike.

Moreover, if one has two character cards and four compatible spirit law cards, they can also independently initiate a combination technique.

Some strange combination effects even become the highlight of the event, creating a stunning performance effect.

“Wow, Wei Yang, you actually drew the lead card, the first chief of the generation?”

Everyone suddenly said.

『Founder·Yang Shi: The founder of Tomorrow Society, after entrusting the heavy responsibilities of Tomorrow Society to two trustworthy members, fell in battle against the law realms of Baishi Town. The Extreme Spiritual Law system he created reversed the power gap of Tomorrow Society, overcoming the centuries-old foundation of noble families. During the Yang Shi character card stage, one can consume a Fire Card to activate Heart Fire, attacking a target twice.』

“Someone has to pave the way forward.”

Yang Yu slowly recited Yang Shi’s lines, the image of the fearless sage vividly coming to life.

“The creator of Extreme Spiritual Law and Tomorrow’s theories, this is the sage!”

Tang Si expressed deep respect.

Although she greatly admired women like Huo Yang and Qi Lian, when it came to the esteemed leaders of past generations, she could only give a thumbs up.

Even the lesser-known second chief, Yang Shu, had unwaveringly stepped down to make way for the third chief, Dao, which earned admiration!

If Yang Shu hadn’t given up his position, Tomorrow Society may not have developed as it did at the beginning, and harmony might never have been achieved!

Any evil act has its origins before it spreads on a large scale, and Yang Shu’s actions truly inspire respect. As the father of the founder, he shares the same flame in his heart.

“I will also become the chief, surpassing all past chiefs, leading Tomorrow Society to true greatness!”

Yong Fa suddenly said earnestly.

“Aren’t you aiming to unify the world? Don’t you want to become the ruler?”

Wu Xianzhang immediately responded.

The concept of an emperor in this world is rather vague; there are individual rulers that haven’t come together. The unified leader of the Celestial Empire is referred to as the “Human Emperor,” “Supreme,” or “Great Emperor,” rather than just “emperor.”

Yong Fa glanced at him, replying seriously, “That is the next step; being tyrannical will not save Tomorrow Society.”

“Hahaha, fine, fine, you understand better than the adults.” Wu Xianzhang did not argue with Yong Fa, having already experienced this over the past two years, but philosophies cannot be changed until one has suffered defeat.

Yun Ye looked at Yong Fa with some perplexity.

After two years of school, he also knew that Yong Fa was Qi Lian’s adopted son. Yong Fa’s views could be said to be greatly influenced by Qi Lian…

Tyranny?

What exactly did Qi Lian intend to do?

Could it be that it was not just about those eyes but also about wanting to accomplish something substantial?

Yun Ye suppressed his doubts and interrupted, “Yong Fa, there are many hurdles to becoming chief. First of all, the current chief, Tian Jing, is powerful and long-lived; it is far from the time to cultivate an heir. Even when that time comes, if the Dao Artifact is not awakened, it will be impossible to become the chief of Tomorrow Society.”

“Indeed, can Yong Fa awaken the Dao Artifact? That’s not a laughing matter.” Everyone nodded in agreement.

Yong Fa’s mouth twitched, “You all…”

“Too narrow-minded.”

The path of tomorrow is never absolute justice; it is the core that articulates the essence of people and society. What can truly develop depends on the user!
