Chapter 179 The Magician Card
[The World of Tarot]
When Qi Na and Fei Ling opened their eyes, they found themselves in an unfamiliar place.
"Where is this place?" Qi Na looked at the door behind her that led to the interior of the Floating Cloud Tower, and an unbelievable thought popped into her mind: "Have we entered the cardboard box?"
“How could that be? The cards are flat.” Fei Ling refuted Zi Na’s guess.
But just then, an old voice suddenly came from all directions: "Nature can conjure up a fairyland, so why can't the world in the Tarot cards be real?"
"Who, who's speaking?" Zina and Feiling immediately stood back to back, wary of any potential enemies.
"Your cards, they all want to talk to you."
As the voice rang out again, the little Grim Reaper in the Death card, holding a scythe, suddenly appeared around them, circled once, and then disappeared.
Next came the king and queen, but the two statues vanished as soon as they appeared, turning into specks of light once more.
Suddenly, countless tarot cards scattered from the sky, and the voice continued, "Each card has its own meaning and its own world. Come on up, I'll be waiting for you at the top of the tower."
"My cards are beyond my control, they've materialized on their own!" The tower cards that had fallen at Qi Na and Fei Ling's feet suddenly materialized, turning into a tall tower that carried them into the air.
The materialized tower soared into the clouds. After Qi Na and Fei Ling stood firm, they discovered a door at the top of the tower.
"Come in." The door at the top of the tower suddenly opened, and a faint mist wafted out.
"Who is calling us? And where is this place?" Qi Na and Fei Ling exchanged a glance, then pushed open the door and went inside.
It was a dimly lit room, with many red ropes crisscrossing, each rope connected to a golden bell.
"So many bells!" Fei Ling looked around, somewhat curious. "What do all these threads represent?"
Zina walked up to a low red rope and gently touched a golden bell. Unexpectedly, the golden bell suddenly lit up, causing all the bells to shake and make a piercing sound.
Just then, the door that had been open suddenly closed, and a golden wheel of fate that had been spinning continuously appeared in the center of the room. The voice that had drawn them there rang out once more: "How long has it been since anyone stepped into this place?"
At the same time, a chair descended from the sky, slowly lowering itself, and the sound came from the person inside the chair.
"Each bell connected by a thread is a node of destiny. Who do you think is giving you guidance through the cards?"
"Who are you?" Zina looked at the thin and weathered "old man" in front of her in shock.
"Didn't Xinling introduce herself? I am the magician of the fairy realm, a fake fairy just like you."
"what?"
"Don't be curious about me yet. We have more important things to do, don't we?" Xingchen said, flipping her wrist to produce a tarot card: "This is the last tarot card."
"The last tarot card?"
“You really want this card, don’t you? It can unlock true power.” Xingchen’s fingers twitched slightly, and he used his fairy power to send the Magician card to Qi Na’s face: “I can return the card to you, but I don’t know if you can accept it.”
"The Magician?" Zina looked at the card clearly; it was her only incomplete card.
However, the Magician card is now complete.
"If you can use this card well, you will be incredibly powerful; but if you fail, you will become like me, sealed inside the card." As Xingchen spoke, the card suddenly changed to resemble Qi Na and Fei Ling.
"What? This is too dangerous!"
“Feiling is an artificial fairy, she cannot possess the endless fairy power of a real fairy, and her body will eventually be exhausted and depleted.” Xingchen calmly stated the fact that neither Qi Na nor Feiling wanted to face: “Xinling sent you to find me because she knew that only this card could help you.”
"How can this card be used successfully without being sealed?" Fei Ling knew her problem. Whether it was created by Xin Ling before or given new life by new magic later, her life was not under her control.
Fei Ling wasn't greedy for endless life like the other fairies; she just wanted to stay with Qi Na for life. But... how much longer could her body support her?
"I want to protect Fei Ling!" Zi Na shared the same thought.
"Then it seems you have no choice but to accept this card," Starry Night tempted.
"The last card, the Magician..." Zina reached out without hesitation.
