Chapter 2877: Card Master
Jiangnan indeed had the ability to suppress Wanxiang, but he didn't have the capital to kill him!
If Wanxiang wanted to leave, Jiangnan couldn't stop him!
If Wanxiang was dead set on dismantling the Carbon Alliance's home star domain, even if Jiangnan went all out to stop him, it would be hard to guarantee that the Carbon Alliance wouldn't suffer losses!
Since he couldn't defeat Jiangnan, why keep fighting here?
He definitely needed to find a way to restrain Jiangnan!
A living person couldn't just let himself be choked to death by urine, right?
Without a word, Wanxiang turned around and broke free from the biting south wind, heading straight for the Carbon Alliance's home star domain to dismantle it!
Jiangnan glared: (ꐦ°᷄д°᷅) "Oh? Think you can run?"
Just then, Jiangnan turned and rushed straight toward the three still being beaten—Mailiushi and his crew!
Mailiushi's eyes widened as a deathly fear enveloped his entire being!
Although Jiangnan couldn't kill a Pseudo-Cosmos for now,
he definitely had the strength to kill Star Devourers!
Was he serious?
(#)͡⚆҉̛口●҉̛) "Ancestor! Save me!"
This phrase was probably the one Mailiushi had yelled the most in this period!
Wanxiang slammed on the brakes and turned back to charge at Mailiushi!
"Jiangnan! How dare you!"
"If you dare kill the three of them, then later, not a single one of your Carbon Alliance's Star Devourers will survive!"
But in the end, it was too late!
Jiangnan had already made his move!
"Dimensional Reduction Strike!"
The space where Xinglan, Mingquan, and Mailiushi were located was directly unfolded by Jiangnan into two dimensions!
And without exception, the three were sent straight to the two-dimensional world by Jiangnan!
Like a large flatbread, they were spread out flat on the two-dimensional plane, completely motionless!
They had even lost their thoughts, their faces still frozen in expressions of terror, and the vast energy within their star bodies all became nourishment for the expansion of the two-dimensional plane!
Even though they were Star Devourer-level beings, they were still three-dimensional creatures with no capital to think or act in two dimensions!
Under normal circumstances, the three of them were now no different from being dead!
Once the two-dimensional plane faded, Mailiushi and the others would disappear forever, frozen, banished to two dimensions from then on!
But the problem was that the current circumstances weren't normal; the one who had turned them two-dimensional was Jiangnan!
Wanxiang was furious, his resentment value brushing until Jiangnan's eyes blurred!
(ꐦcao yi caoꐦ) "Aaaah! How dare you! I'll fight you to the death!"
These three were, strictly speaking, Wanxiang's juniors, not to mention that they were Celestial Star Race's own Star Devourers!
And they were just gone like that?
But Jiangnan grinned:
(O՞ꇴ՞) "Hey~ you can't beat me!"
[From Wanxiang's Resentment Value +1010!]
Although he didn't want to admit it, what Jiangnan said was true!
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow and looked proudly at his masterpiece!
The three two-dimensional planes where Mailiushi and the others were flattened hadn't disappeared but continued to exist in the starry sky!
Jiangnan even trimmed the edges, turning them into rectangular shapes resembling cards!
He couldn't help but sigh with emotion:
(͡°ก͡°)✧ "Didn't think that after so long without spreading flatbreads, my skills haven't gotten rusty at all—perfectly spread!"
"Before I started setting up my street stall, my main business was selling hand-grabbed pancakes and grilled cold noodles; I even dabbled a bit in egg-stuffed pancakes and jianbing guozi!"
Noah and the others were completely speechless, covering their faces en masse!
(ﾉ)´-﹏-`)
God damn spreading flatbreads! And hand-grabbed pancakes and grilled cold noodles?
What you just spread out were three Star Devourers, you know! Is that even comparable?
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow:
(๑◔д◔ิ) "What are you still standing here for? Weren't you going to dismantle my Carbon Alliance's home star domain? Go ahead and dismantle!"
"The moment you dismantle it, I might get scared or feel heartache, and then I won't be able to maintain these three two-dimensional planes—then they won't be able to come back~"
"Milord, you wouldn't want your juniors to go to the two-dimensional world and become flatbreads for life, would you?"
Wanxiang's eyes widened: What does he mean?
From the way Jiangnan was talking, could he actually get Mailiushi and the three out of two dimensions?
He recalled that when Jiangnan had fought Xun Zu before, he had used a similar ability!
Using a two-dimensional plane to store a big move, then releasing it later?
It worked even for living beings?
(ꐦஇ益இ) "Speak! What do you want to let them out?"
What was the point of dismantling now?
If he went to dismantle, Mailiushi and the three would definitely be lost, and in the entire starry sky, only Jiangnan himself had the ability to restore dimensions!
Jiangnan shrugged: ╮(•́ω•̀)╭ "Huh? Restore? I worked hard to collect these three rare cards, and I actually kind of like them!"
"Forget about restoring, alright?"
As he spoke, Jiangnan directly reached his hand into the two-dimensional space, using energy to draw on the two-dimensional plane!
He actually added platinum-gold border cloud patterns at the edges of the cards, and even wrote card information at the bottom!
〔Platinum Card: SSR
༼༼༼༼༼●༽༽༽༽༽
『Mailiushi: Celestial Star Race Star Devourer』
『Skills: ① Death Radiation ② Gravitational Repulsion Field ③ Gravitational Tear...』
『Domain: Free Gravity』
……
Not just Mailiushi—Xinglan and Mingquan also got their own labels!
And thus, three rare platinum cards were born!
Chong Feiyu and Yakeli dropped their jaws to the ground with a clatter!
(๑ʘ̅口ʘ̅๑)!!!
God damn platinum cards!
So this is the legendary Card Master?
They were indeed rare editions, because even searching the entire starry sky, not many could be made!
How many Star Devourers were there in the entire starry sky anyway?
The production cost of this one card was way too high, don't you think?
Your big pot Black God's hobby is collecting figurines, but you—you collect cards?
Indeed, those close to Nan are corrupted, and those close to Hei are dark!
Wang Youzhi was absolutely thrilled and couldn't help but cheer excitedly!
٩(✧꒨✧●)۶ "Little brother! Let's turn all the Star Devourers in the entire starry sky into cards! Even the disobedient Star Breakers can be made into a few!"
"Wouldn't that create a whole new card game? Battling each other, countering each other—how fun would that be? I've even thought of a name: Starry Sky Kill!"
"Qian Li! I want Qian Li's card! Can you arrange that for me?"
Hearing this, Noah and the others' faces turned green!
Was the Southern God going to send us to the two-dimensional world too, just to complete a card set?
He was totally capable of doing something that insane!
But it also sounded really fun to play… what the hell!
Jiangnan's expression gradually turned devilish:
(σ՚ꇴ՚)σ "Big pot! As expected of you! That works!"
"Something like big joker and little joker—we'll use Wanxiang and the First Machine to make those!"
Wanxiang glared: (ꐦ｀益´) "You're talking nonsense! If I'm made, I have to be the big joker! How could I, a great Star Lord, be placed under anyone?"
"Little joker or whatever doesn't fit my… uh… I spit!"
"Where the hell are you going with this? Give me back Mailiushi and the others! Otherwise… otherwise I'll…"
Jiangnan raised his hand and stroked the three cards, curling his lip:
(ꐦ°᷄д°᷅) "Otherwise what? What can you do?"
Wanxiang's face darkened even more. He really couldn't do anything to Jiangnan!
Aaaaah! I'm a Pseudo-Cosmos!
Why am I so stifled?
"Don't push things to the point of no return, or it won't be good for anyone!"
"That knife of Xun Zu's is still hanging over our heads. It seems cooperation is the only way to survive, don't you think?"
Jiangnan sneered: "Cooperation? When you robbed my mines and hit my people, why didn't you talk about that? Now you want to compromise? Too late!"
"If you dare dismantle my Carbon Alliance, I'll directly kill the three of them, then go dismantle your home! That crappy starlight barrier of yours can stop others, but not me!"
"Have all your Matter Alliance's Star Devourers stay obediently at home. I'll go find them one by one!"
"If you pull any tricks, don't blame me for showing no mercy. You seemed to say that today's matter wouldn't end without three to five Star Devourers dying, right?"
"Of course… the ones dying could also be from your side!"
Wanxiang was shaking with rage!
"What exactly do you want?"
Jiangnan spread his hands: ╮(•́～•̀)╭ "I already stated my goal from the start. I didn't come today for anything else. My purpose is very simple—I came to beat people up!"
Wanxiang was furious, "Is your purpose really that damn simple? You're impervious to reason, aren't you?"
"Can't we negotiate?"
Jiangnan grinned: "Negotiate? Of course we can negotiate! Let me beat you ten rounds first! Negotiate while beating! It doesn't delay!"
"Just take it properly. I'm merciless!"
With that, he rushed up and started a new round of brutal beating against Wanxiang!
Wanxiang now couldn't fight back or not fight back—he just had to endure the beating!
Even if he snatched those three cards, it was useless—Wanxiang didn't know how to restore dimensions!
And ten rounds!
You want my life, don't you?
But what else could Wanxiang do? He could only grit his teeth and bear it!
Every time Jiangnan finished the Black Hole Devouring Star and replenished his Realm Source Energy, the next round of beating for Wanxiang was already waiting!
Moreover, Wanxiang was horrified to find that every time Jiangnan came back, his aura would increase a bit!
He was getting stronger the more he fought!
This was simply monstrous!
In fact, Jiangnan's method of one-burst attack was indeed increasing his body's tolerance to Realm Source Energy!
Every time he emptied his energy and then absorbed more, he could absorb a few extra drops than before!
Jiangnan was indeed growing at an astonishing rate!
And during the battle with Wanxiang, Jiangnan was also trying to understand the power of the rules!
Laying the foundation for his own future creation!
By now, the entire starry sky was completely in an uproar. Jiangnan's strength had far exceeded expectations. Not only did he suppress Wanxiang in a beating, but he also casually made three Star Devourers into cards!
The Carbon Alliance's unfavorable situation was instantly reversed with Jiangnan's return!
And the citizens of the Matter Alliance member races were also exploding with resentment!
Beating Wanxiang? That was slapping the face of the Matter Alliance!
Of course they were angry!
After a full ten rounds, Jiangnan said calmly: "Now, tell me—what kind of price are you willing to pay to trade for the platinum cards?"
Wanxiang felt like he was about to cry!
This guy finally agreed to talk conditions, huh?
"Why are you still hitting? Didn't you say we'd talk conditions?"
Jiangnan spread his hands matter-of-factly:
ʅ(･´‸･｀)ʃ "First beat ten rounds, doesn't mean only beat ten rounds. Besides, beating you doesn't interfere with my talking?"
"Negotiate while beating, you know~"
Wanxiang: ~%?…;#*'☆℃$︿★!
