Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 471: 392 Chapter Ants Chapter 471: 392 Chapter Ants Tian Bulue looked at Yu Runde, encircled in a flowing blood light, and said solemnly, “This person looks somewhat strange.”

Yang Song glanced briefly and said, “It should be because of the blood sacrifice. The fluctuation of his Star Power is indeed astonishing. However, he can’t control the power obtained from the sacrifice proficiently. If we join forces, he won’t be able to withstand us. Let’s attack together!”

“Alright!”

The three of them immediately leaped forward.

Yu Runde, however, let out a cold laugh, raised his hand to form a seal, and shut down the barrier suppressing the toxic mist in the valley.

In an instant, the valley quivered slightly. Then, a deluge of toxic mist, suppressed for over ten days, surged from the depths of the valley like a breached dam!

“Not good!” Yu Qing looked up, his face changing drastically, “Run quickly, it’s the toxic mist from Poison Mist Valley!”

Tian Bulue and the others’ faces changed too. Without hesitation, they turned and ran.

But before they could run far, they were engulfed by the toxic mist.

As for Yu Runde at the valley’s entrance, he was swallowed up even faster.

The toxic mist surged out of the valley, green clouds rolling and churning layer upon layer.

After a while, a streak of blood light emerged from the surge of toxic mist—it was Yu Runde!

The originally intense blood light around him had dimmed significantly, dissolved considerably by the toxic mist.

But this was within Yu Runde’s expectations.

The power obtained from the blood sacrifice of Pei Yuanming and the others couldn’t be fully absorbed. Using part of it to resist the toxic mist was just right!

Yu Runde’s figure flickered and rushed forward.

Not long after, Yang Song, now with the Sea King Shark armor, also emerged.

Yang Song’s face was pallid, his aura weakened. His left shoulder was bruised and bloody, evidently having suffered severe damage.

“Ran away?!”

Yang Song frowned, lifted his hand, and quickly pressed several points on his left shoulder to stop the toxin’s spread. Sensing briefly, he discovered that Yu Runde had fled towards the entrance.

Thinking of the injured Wang Xudong and Su Yuan, the Barrier Master, Yang Song’s heart tightened.

Yu Runde’s strength had increased dramatically. Yu Qing’s subordinates wouldn’t be able to stop him!

“Sea King Shark, full form!”

Yang Song muttered lowly. A huge shark tail manifested behind him. His figure flickered as he rapidly pursued Yu Runde!

Not long after, Tian Bulue also brought Yu Qing out of the toxic mist’s range.

Yu Qing was also covered in Tian Bulue’s Black Stone skin. Though many parts had dissolved, it had blocked most of the toxic mist.

“Thank you, Special Envoy Tian…” Yu Qing said gratefully in his sorry state.

Tian Bulue nodded, seeing he was alright, then quickly leaped towards the exit…

At the Kongqiang Ridge entrance.

Su Yuan, after bringing back Wang Xudong, sat down at Yu Qing’s camp and began reading the “Array Dao General Outline·Volume Two” he had recently borrowed from the Scripture Hall.

Old Zhou, Tang Jinxuan, and others saw Su Yuan could still find the calm to study the Array Barrier in such a challenging task, and they couldn’t help but admire him secretly.

“It’s increased to 7%.”

Su Yuan turned the last page and glanced at the system. Seeing the increase of another percentage point, he couldn’t help but feel pleased.

Putting away the “Array Dao General Outline·Volume Two,” Su Yuan took out the Third Volume to continue. Suddenly, he sensed something and took out the Black Card.

“Oh?”

After checking the information, Su Yuan felt a bit surprised.

It was a message from Yang Song.

He said an Evil Card Master had obtained intense power through sacrificing others and was charging outward. He hoped Su Yuan could use barriers or other methods to stop him. He only needed to delay for a while until Yang Song arrived!

At this moment, Old Zhou came over with a heavy face.

He glanced at Su Yuan and Wang Xudong, who lay nearby, severely injured. Old Zhou saluted Su Yuan.

“Special Envoy Su, Captain Yu said an Evil Card Master who used the Blood Sacrifice Secret Technique is charging out and asked us to intercept. He specifically asked if either of you two Special Envoys had any orders.”

Hearing this, Wang Xudong immediately tried to stand up: “Wh…what, there’s…an Evil Card Master…coming… Ah!…”

However, Wang Xudong’s flesh was corroded a lot. He grimaced in pain as soon as he moved.

“Captain Yu thought this through.” Su Yuan nodded slightly. Yu Qing remembered to ask for their words, showing great respect for the Sky Patrol Department.

Old Zhou asked, “Does Special Envoy Su have any orders? If not, I will arrange the intercept.”

Old Zhou was one of Yu Qing’s old subordinates, one of the few who had previously witnessed the prowess of the Sky Patrol Department.

Hence, despite Su Yuan’s youth, Old Zhou was exceptionally polite.

Su Yuan opened the “Array Dao Secret Scroll Volume Three” and casually said, “You may proceed as you deem appropriate.”

“Well then, I’ll make the arrangements!”

Old Zhou responded politely and then led the team to prepare.

Yu Qing knew Su Yuan was the Barrier Master responsible for breaking the Filth Formation and had specifically told Old Zhou.

Given Wang Xudong’s severe injuries, he couldn’t fight.

Thus, Old Zhou wasn’t surprised by Su Yuan’s response.

Watching Old Zhou leave, Wang Xudong gritted his teeth and said, “Su Yuan, help…help me up. I can still fight…”

Su Yuan glanced at him, then returned to reading the Array Dao Secret Scroll.

“Rest as you are.”

“But…” Wang Xudong wanted to say more.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take action.”

Silver light floated in Su Yuan’s eyes. While reading the Array Dao secret scroll, his All-Knowing Vision scanned Kongqiang Ridge…

“The enemy is coming!”

After some time, Old Zhou received a message from a scout inside Kongqiang Ridge and loudly reminded everyone.

Instantly, many Shining Star Level members flew into the air. The Gold Level, including Du Feiyun, were already forming a semicircle defense outside.

All the team members geared up. Some Shining Star Level members had begun preparing their skills.

Old Zhou solemnly reminded, “Be careful! Captain Yu said the enemy used the Blood Sacrifice Barrier to enhance himself. His strength has reached a terrifying level!”

Several Shining Star members nodded, indicating their understanding.

Soon, a wave of blood light shot out from Kongqiang Ridge—it was Yu Runde!

“He’s here! Ke Ping, Liu Zhangyu, long-range attack!” Old Zhou commanded lowly.

Among the hovering Shining Star members, one used a Storm Tornado, and the other, Molten Lava Fire.

Wind aided fire, merging into a large fire tornado that first attacked Yu Runde!

“Such a trivial combo technique!”

Yu Runde sneered, raised his hand, and a blood-red hand took shape, grasping at the fire tornado. In a short moment, the formidable fire tornado was torn apart by the bloodred hand!

Breaking it with sheer force!

Now, enhanced by the Blood Sacrifice Barrier, Yu Runde’s Star Power far surpassed an average Shining Star Level.

With the Filth Power, easily destroying Star Power techniques, he wasn’t afraid of these long-range spells!

Yu Runde sneered and charged through the dissipating Wind and Fire Spirit Light, unscathed!

“Ke Ping and Liu Zhangyu’s Wind and Fire combo technique was broken so easily?”

The City Guard, including Old Zhou, were all shocked. This combo technique was one of the team’s strongest attack methods!

Old Zhou, though surprised, remained calm. Seeing Yu Runde getting closer, he said, “Li Qian, Deep Sea Net!”

Another Shining Star Level woman was ready. She formed a seal with both hands.

Soon, the far-off ground surged with Water Light. Numerous watery threads shot out like spider silk, entangling the blood-red light that Yu Runde had become, tightly binding it.

“Good!!”

Old Zhou and others were overjoyed, about to launch another attack.

Li Qian sensed something and exclaimed, “No!”

The watery threads around Yu Runde turned blood-red and broke apart within moments!

“Tricks!”

Yu Runde grinned, charging closer.

Old Zhou commanded, “Quick, attack freely! Shining Star Level, prepare for close combat!”

Including Du Feiyun, all Gold Level members launched attacks.

Yet, Yu Runde, with his blood-red hand enhanced by the Filth Power, easily blocked the attacks.

“Prepare for close combat…”

Seeing the enemy nearing, Old Zhou readied to lead the charge. Suddenly, a figure appeared before him.

Dressed in black with a Vermilion Bird embroidery, distinct from the other Special Envoys.

“Special Envoy Su?”

Old Zhou was stunned, not expecting the Barrier Master to step up now.

Su Yuan eyed the distant blood light, his right palm flashed silver, and he pressed down.

Above Yu Runde, a colossal silver hand emerged from the void, striking heavily!

“This seems formidable…”

Yu Runde’s eyes narrowed. He snorted and gathered blood light into his right hand.

He swung a punch upward, forming a huge blood-red fist to counter the silver hand!

“Boom!”

Yu Runde, covered in blood light, slightly repelled the Void Splitting Monument Hand!

“So this is the Blood Sacrifice?” Curious, Su Yuan observed, “It does provide a significant short-term boost… But that’s all.”

Su Yuan, calmly, had all 365 stars on him light up rapidly.

He harnessed star power; the Void Splitting Monument Hand filled with bright star dust, glistening star light flowed. Its power increased several folds, shattering the blood-red fist as it descended on Yu Runde!

“How?!”

Yu Runde, stunned, was crushed by the starry hand, pinned to the ground!

“Boom!!…”

Star light scattered, and the rippling shockwaves were perceptible miles away!

“What’s happening?!”

Rushing at full speed, Yang Song paled, alarmed, and hastened to Kongqiang Ridge’s entrance.

There, a beautiful silver hand was lifting slowly, and beneath it, the blood-sacrifice-enhanced Yu Runde was a heap of flesh…

“Is he dead?”

Emotionless, Su Yuan retracted the Void Splitting Monument Hand and the Star Dominator.

“Striking without crushing is hard to control…”

Gazing at Yu Runde’s remains, Wang Xudong, Old Zhou, Du Feiyun, and the just-arriving Yang Song—all stood in wide-eyed shock, staring at the slender youth surrounded by lingering starlight.

One.. one strike to kill?

For a moment, the whole place was silent.
