Resources are Monopolized, What Can I Do About My Unlimited Access Card?

Chapter 22 Bronze Tier 5, Divinity[Refinement] (Tier 2 310/100) Effect: ...

Gu Ye sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the freshly refined, warm [Breath of Spiritual Energy] in his hand.

He was refining it while it was still hot; if it got cold, it wouldn’t taste good.

A muffled sound came from Gu Ye’s body, and his aura surged significantly.

He slowly opened his eyes, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said with a calm expression, ”Bronze Fifth Tier.”

Gu Ye picked up his phone, thought for a moment, and put it down, then picked it up again to send Mu Xuefei a message on Feixin asking for leave tomorrow.

Just as he was about to put the phone down to take a shower, Mu Xuefei sent a question mark. Gu Ye sent back two words as an explanation: ”card-making.”

Then he added, ”bloodline card!”

Mu Xuefei quickly replied, ”Understood.” Gu Ye put down his phone, showered, and went to sleep.

...

Wednesday, cloudy to sunny, good fortune.

Woken up by the alarm, Gu Ye walked out of his room, bleary-eyed. A figure was sitting in the living room eating fruit, unceremoniously resting her legs on the coffee table. Gu Ye knew exactly who it was just by looking at her posture.

”Sister Fei, why are you here?”

”Have you made breakfast yet?” Mu Xuefei asked, ignoring his question.

”Not yet!”

”Then hurry up and make it.”

Gu Ye went to the bathroom to wash up briefly before heading to the kitchen to start making breakfast for the day...

”Are the card-making materials ready?” Mu Xuefei asked, exhaling steam as she nibbled on a steamed bun.

”They are. I’ll start making the card in a moment.”

”I’ll stand guard for you.”

Gu Ye looked at her, stunned, realizing why she had come so early today—otherwise, she would usually still be sleeping at this hour. A warm feeling welled up in his heart involuntarily.

”Okay.”

After finishing breakfast, the two went to Gu Ye’s room. Mu Xuefei skillfully sat in the chair in front of the computer desk. A card appeared in her hand out of thin air, and she handed it to Gu Ye: ”A divinity card. Add it to the bloodline card you’re making later.”

Gu Ye looked at her, confused, and did not take the card.

A bloodline card would accompany a Card Master for their entire life. Any minor issue could affect the Card Master’s entire future. Even though Gu Ye and Mu Xuefei were very familiar with each other, Gu Ye dared not joke around with a bloodline card.

Mu Xuefei saw his distrust but wasn’t annoyed. She immediately explained, ”Do you know why Noble Families produce so many Mythical-tier Card Masters—what people call card Gods—while only General Long Yuan has emerged as a Mythical-tier Card Master among civilian Card Masters?”

However, there was one thing Mu Xuefei didn’t say: Long Yuan could beat ten Noble Families Mythical-tier Card Masters single-handedly.

Gu Ye shook his head, indicating he didn’t know.

”To become a card God, the most important thing is possessing divinity. Divinity isn’t obtained when breaking through to become a card God, but rather from the moment you make your first bloodline card.”

”Divinity will nourish the Card Master along with the bloodline card, gradually growing and strengthening until the day it can support the Card Master in becoming a card God.”

Learning this information, which was listed as taboo by all major Noble Families, Gu Ye felt his worldview shattered. He had thought that Noble Families capital controlling resources like card-making materials was already excessive enough.

He hadn’t expected them to also block the path for civilian Card Masters to advance to Mythical-tier Card Masters.

”Then what’s the use of a divinity card in a bloodline card?”

”It has no use. It’s only useful when you’re breaking through to become a card God.”

Suddenly, Gu Ye seemed to think of something.

”Wait for me a moment.” After saying that, Gu Ye rolled off the bed and walked out of the room.

Mu Xuefei curled her lip, clearly seeing his intention.

Arriving in the living room, Gu Ye glanced back at the bedroom and took out his phone to call Chu Ling.

After some inquiries, Gu Ye understood that Mu Xuefei hadn’t lied to him, and in fact, it was Chu Ling and the other person who had told Mu Xuefei about this.

Returning to the bedroom, Mu Xuefei handed the card to him again and raised her eyebrows at him. The meaning was obvious. Gu Ye could only smile sheepishly and take the card.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed again, Gu Ye took out all the card-making materials. After checking them one by one, he held his breath, focused, activated his Life card, and returned to the familiar spiritual space. Gu Ye began making his first bloodline card.

Having advanced to Bronze Fifth Tier, his spiritual space had become even larger, and smelting the card-making materials was easier. The preceding steps were very smooth until the true name [tuanado of gale] was inscribed.

That’s right, the first bloodline card Gu Ye was making was the tuonaduo armor, known for its speed in Armor III.

Gu Ye’s expression was grave. His body outside reacted accordingly; the spiritual energy in his body began to riot, his blood surged, and his body temperature gradually rose.

Seeing Gu Ye’s face turn from pale to red and countless water vapor rising from his body, Mu Xuefei understood that he had reached the critical moment.

Inside the spiritual space, Gu Ye strained his face and pressed his arm downward. Below him was the illusory card formed by the materials. A drop of essence blood was clearly condensed on his finger. He wanted to drip the essence blood into the card and merge it into one. This was the most important step of a bloodline card—Blood Sacrifice.

But the card’s resistance was extremely strong. Gu Ye sensed a gentle yet wild aura on it, resisting him.

Gu Ye immediately thought of the [divinity card]: ”This thing is really troublesome!”

The [divinity card] possesses a trace of a god’s spirit. On Blue Star, a god represents a certain realm.

When a god faces a mortal, it’s like a person facing an ant. And when a person wants to master a god’s power, how could the god not resist?

Gu Ye and the card remained in a stalemate. Seeming to know Gu Ye’s difficulty, the [Refinement] talent flickered with radiance, and a furnace burning with flames appeared out of thin air in the spiritual space.

Then, under Gu Ye’s astonished gaze, it easily suppressed the illusory card with a flip of its hand. The part of the illusory card belonging to the [divinity card] became terrifyingly quiet when it saw the [Furnace], like a mouse seeing a cat.

Gu Ye’s essence blood successfully dripped into the card. The [Furnace], which usually looked quiet, unexpectedly had a protective function for its master. However, Gu Ye guessed that the [Furnace] might only have an effect in the consciousness sea, while outside it only had the function of refining cards.

Outside, Mu Xuefei saw his body temperature slowly returning to normal. She was incredulous, instantly wondering if something had gone wrong with Gu Ye.

In Mu Xuefei’s knowledge, whenever anyone added a [divinity card] while making a bloodline card, the confrontation with the divinity during the Blood Sacrifice would last a long time, and might even fail. She herself had spent a full six hours wearing down the divinity during her Blood Sacrifice.

Now, if you told her that Gu Ye had worn down the divinity in a few minutes, this... who would believe that!

Mu Xuefei stood up, walked to Gu Ye’s side, and observed carefully, seeing that his expression remained calm and he didn’t have the changes from before.

Moreover, Mu Xuefei sensed that Gu Ye’s physical strength was continuously improving, indicating that he had already started the subsequent stages of making the bloodline card.

She couldn’t do anything for the moment, and it was impossible to wake him up directly, so she could only wait until Gu Ye finished making the card before asking.

Inside the spiritual space, after the essence blood dripped into the illusory card, Gu Ye sensed a faint, almost imperceptible sense of intimacy with the card in front of him, as if it were a part of his own body.

The Blood Sacrifice was complete, and the [Furnace] also disappeared from the spiritual space. Seeing this, Gu Ye continued to complete the final few steps. His first bloodline card was almost finished.
