Fang Xiang

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world.  Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice.  The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos –  human and nonhuman –  into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more.  Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

The Card Apprentice

The two of them had created a bloody road from the Hundred Depths. It was a literal road paved with blood. In addition to the blood of countless beasts, there was their blood! Chen Mu had forgotten the number of times he was injured and sprinkled with blood.

With the continuous fighting and killing, the two honed themselves into real killing machines. No hesitation and nonsense. As soon as they decided to fight, they would enter battle mode. Cold precision and high concentration for killing the enemy as soon as possible!

Feeling the unique threaded pattern of the White Midges Bone in the palm of his hands, Chen Mu's elbow bent outwards, and his body stretched back like a bow. "Ha!"

The robbers were horrified to find that Chen Mu's arm had suddenly disappeared!

Kill!
