Mythical Card Maker: Starting with the Mountain Spirit

Chapter 48 [The Embryo of Kun Steel, the Diamond Bracelet]

Back at the Card House,

Lin Mo closed the door and headed straight for the lounge at the back of the shop.

I took out the batch of material cards I had just purchased from the Card Makers Association and examined them carefully.

After confirming that everything was correct, he then took out the remaining material cards from the backpack next to him.

Only then was the mountain spirit summoned to protect him.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Mo took a deep breath, focused his mind, and

His spiritual power poured out, enveloping the surrounding material cards, and entered his mind along with his consciousness.

Within the vast space where clouds and mist rise and fall,

A multitude of materials surrounded Lin Mo like a ring, slowly flowing around him.

Lin Mo's gaze sharpened, locking onto several of the material cards.

He immediately pointed his finger, and the materials flew out, appearing in front of him.

It was a fist-sized purple crystal, a small clump of alchemy furnace ash, a ring engraved with Bagua runes, and a small section of vine core.

The equipment card that Lin Mo is going to make is called the Vajra Bracelet, which comes from the mythological story "Journey to the West" created by Wu Cheng'en in the Ming Dynasty.

It was originally a treasure of Laozi, who "forged steel and refined the elixir, cultivating a body full of spiritual energy, capable of transformation, impervious to water and fire, and able to control all things."

When Laozi passed through Hangu Pass and converted the barbarians to Buddhism, he relied entirely on this treasure for protection.

This magical artifact was thrown at Sun Wukong by Laozi during the Heavenly Court's siege of him, thus helping Erlang Shen capture the Monkey King.

Later, his mount, the Green Ox Demon, stole it and sent it to the mortal realm, taking away Sun Wukong's golden cudgel, Nezha's six weapons, the fire weapons of the Fire God, and countless other magical treasures.

In the end, Laozi subdued the Green Ox Demon with his fire-elemental banana leaf fan and took back the Vajra Bracelet as its nose ring.

This item can be used for both offense and defense; it can be used to collect other people's magical treasures and also for storing one's own belongings.

It is truly the best choice as a space equipment.

With this in mind, Lin Mo immediately used his mental power as a pen.

He wrote the three large characters "金刚琢" in the void.

A dazzling array of lights suddenly appeared, intertwining and eventually converging to form a shape.

It suddenly disappeared into a material card in front of Lin Mo, its surface engraved with the words "refined steel".

This purple-quality [Fire-Refined Steel] is the main material he used to create the Vajra Bracelet.

The card-making formula is then clear: [Fire-Refined Steel] (Purple) + [Gluttonous Core] (Purple) + [Spiritual Fire Dust] (Purple) + [Eight Trigrams Meteorite Ring] (Blue) + [Storage Vine Core] (Blue)

Among them, "Fire-Refined Steel" represents the indestructible nature of diamond.

The "Spiritual Fire Remnants" symbolize that it was transformed by Laozi's alchemy furnace, and the ashes contain spiritual power, serving as a carrier of spiritual power.

The [Taotie Core] endows it with spatial attributes, giving it its own Sumeru space.

The 【Eight Trigrams Meteorite Ring】further enhances the framework, giving it the symbolism of 【circle】 and Taoist attributes.

The 【Storage Vine Core】 provides basic storage capabilities and can be used to store equipment.

As the real name was engraved onto the main material, the four figures that had been revealed instantly seemed to be drawn by some mysterious force, merging into the main material.

Meanwhile, Lin Mo did not stop.

Continuing to use mental power as a pen, I will write out the entire narrative background that I just constructed.

Because he already had a plan in mind, Lin Mo felt almost no pressure at this step.

Before long, a lengthy account of Vajra Bracelet’s life was completed in several hundred words.

After completing this step, Lin Mo paused for a moment, slowly exhaling a breath of stale air.

Based on the image of the Vajra Bracelet in my mind from my previous life, I slowly engraved it onto the surface.

Thanks to his predecessor's superb painting skills, Lin Mo was able to complete the painting almost entirely through muscle memory.

Of course, the help of high-level Black Iron level mental power is also indispensable.

After all, compared to other steps,

This step is particularly mentally taxing.

As the final step was taken, a card shimmering with a bright purple light instantly solidified.

It slowly floated in front of Yu Linmo.

The card is shaped like a circular diamond ring, with Bagua (Eight Trigrams) patterns and alchemical furnace designs engraved on it.

The outermost edge is decorated with a circle of yin-yang fish patterns, interwoven with cloud patterns.

"It's done!"

Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief and immediately began to check the relevant information about the Vajra Bracelet.

Card Name: [Steel Embryo - Diamond Bracelet]

Rank: Acquired Spiritual Treasure

Type: Accessories/Equipment/Source Card

Spirituality: Perfection, Bright Purple Edges, Black Iron

Star rating: ★★★★★★

characteristic:

【Indestructible Kun Steel】 is forged from Kun steel and refined through nine cycles in Laozi's alchemical furnace, making it indestructible, impervious to water and fire, and unharmed by any magic.

The Vajra Bracelet has a space of hundreds of feet in diameter inside, which can hold countless objects.

The [Size-Changing Scepter] can change size according to the holder's will, from as small as a mustard seed to as large as a mountain. It can trap an enemy's body, rendering them unable to move.

It can also temporarily seal off the equipment of the target, rendering it unusable. The duration of the imprisonment and sealing varies depending on the strength of the target.

[Transform Treasures into Energy] can decompose the sealed equipment into pure energy for the holder's use.

skill:

【Throw the Diamond Ring to Strike the Enemy】Throw the diamond ring to attack the designated target, causing a heavy blow and knocking it back.

If the target possesses an equipment card, it is highly likely that the Vajra Bracelet will collect it within its inner space.

【All Treasures Return to Origin】Activates the Vajra Bracelet's ability to gather and attract, creating a powerful suction field around the holder.

During the duration of the suction field, all enemy equipment and ranged attacks within the range will be forcibly stored. It will not take effect if the star difference is too large.

【Diamond Body Protection】The Vajra Bracelet is suspended around the body and rotates rapidly, forming a golden Vajra shield.

The shield can absorb a large amount of damage, and while the shield is active, the holder is immune to all control effects.

【All or Nothing】Unleashes the full energy of the Vajra Bracelet, throwing out a massive phantom of the Vajra Bracelet that deals devastating damage to all enemies in a straight line ahead.

All equipment held by targets that are hit will be forcibly confiscated, except for high-level equipment.

"It's a six-star purple card?"

A look of joy flashed in Lin Mo's eyes.

After breaking through to the High-Rank Black Iron Card Maker, the initial star rating of the cards I made was indeed improved.

It's important to know that it's very difficult to increase the initial star rating of cards.

The higher the quality, the more difficult it becomes.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that he used only blue-quality or higher material cards.

He used three purple material cards, which was the most extravagant thing he had ever done in his life.

"Every little star on this card is made of star coins!"

Lin Mo sighed and immediately took a closer look at the relevant skill descriptions.

After a while, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

"It can attack or defend, and it even has a disarming function. No wonder it's a post-natal spiritual treasure made by Laozi; its power is truly extraordinary!"

After examining it for a while, Lin Mo immediately exited the mental space.

Su Ri'an still had some mental energy left, but to be on the safe side, he decided to rest for a day before making the Legion Card.

After all, compared to this equipment card,

Legion cards are more difficult to create and consume more mental energy than ever before.

After his consciousness returned to his body, Lin Mo immediately summoned the Vajra Bracelet.

A burst of brilliant light shone forth, and a shimmering golden ring instantly appeared in his palm.

It is about the size of a palm and is engraved with many intricate runes.

"It feels pretty good!"

After handling it for a while, Lin Mo found it incredibly smooth.

It's like caressing the finest silk.

He immediately slipped it onto his right wrist, and with a thought, the Vajra Bracelet instantly shrank to the size of his wrist.

With a thought, the Vajra Bracelet magnified again.

Unlike regular summoning cards, equipment cards consume almost no mental energy from the user.

Therefore, most card players will choose to summon equipment cards and attach them to their character.

Of course, this only applies to equipment cards such as weapons, armor, and accessories.

For vehicle cards, most card players will still choose to summon them only when they are about to be used.

However, there are also some exceptions.

They like to summon their vehicle cards and park them in their workplace parking space or downstairs at home.

"Perfect size, just what I wanted!"

Nodding in satisfaction, Lin Mo immediately went to the counter and began to draft the narrative for the upcoming Legion Card.
