Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1186: Chapter 965: First Test, Ruthless Kill

”Lord Pla!”

The knights battling with the Star Beasts on the battlefield were all shocked and wide-eyed at the sight of Pla’s head flying off in sudden death!

Herman’s face turned extremely grim upon seeing the silver-haired person appear ahead.

”Vermilion Bird Guardian, Su Yuan?!”

Herman immediately recognized, wasn’t this one of the S-class targets, Su Yuan!

Moreover... the Vermilion Bird Robe on the other person seemed to indicate he took the position of Vermilion Bird True Monarch.

”Damn it!”

Herman never expected that Vermilion Bird Guardian Su Yuan would suddenly appear here and kill Pla with just a single sword stroke!

This was the Demon Beast Forest at the northeast of Qiguang, how did he manage to cross the empire?

But now was not the time to think about these things at all.

Information about Vermilion Bird Guardian Su Yuan quickly surfaced in Herman’s mind as he flew back and urged Blue Steel forward.

”Kill him, Blue Steel!”

Multiple blue radiant steel bars, like shooting serpents, surged towards Su Yuan.

However, with a flicker of silver light, Su Yuan effortlessly teleported out of the Blue Steel.

Herman knew Su Yuan could teleport, and with a raise of his hands to manipulate, the speed of Blue Steel’s flight instantly increased, transforming into a streaming light persistently pursuing the teleporting Su Yuan.

But there wasn’t much entanglement, as silver light flickered before Herman, Su Yuan suddenly appeared in front!

”Teleport so far?!”

Herman was inwardly startled, having deliberately widened the distance earlier, yet Su Yuan still instantly teleported right in front of him!

In his shock, Herman spread his left fingers, and the surging blue light instantly condensed into an exceedingly tight, incredibly hard steel shield.

With a strike, Su Yuan’s sword came down with a ”clang”, leaving a not too deep or shallow sword mark on the steel shield.

”As the information said, the defense is indeed strong...”

Seeing the steel shield block the slash, Su Yuan secretly nodded.

This sword of his didn’t use Divine Break; in truth, Herman was already alert, making it impossible to kill or seriously injure him with one strike.

Even with Three Flowers Sheng Shen, one can’t recklessly deplete spiritual power.

Taking advantage of the force from Su Yuan’s sword, Herman once again quickly pulled back the distance.

Su Yuan raised the longsword, looking at Herman pulling away: ”When feeling danger, you distance yourself from the opponent to allow more reaction time... So you’re already fearful, are you, [Tower]?”

Herman’s expression turned grim upon hearing that.

Indeed, witnessing Su Yuan suddenly kill Pla with one sword strike had Herman rattled, still not calmed down!

Su Yuan chuckled lightly, silver light flickering on him, teleporting forward to slash again.

Herman lifted the high-density blue steel shield to block, yet was struggling incredibly.

However, Herman’s eyes flickered subtly; the numerous Blue Steel he released earlier had hurriedly converged from behind Su Yuan!

Simultaneously, Herman’s right hand fiercely brightened, the dozens of Blue Steel that were ready and waiting instantly charged at Su Yuan from the front.

Truly a pincer attack from front and back, leaving Su Yuan no room to escape!

Yet the next moment, the many steel bars that were about to shoot at Su Yuan stopped amidst a stilled stasis around him.

Herman’s pupils constricted: ”Huh?!”

Regarding S-class target ”Vermilion Bird Guardian Su Yuan”, quite a bit of intelligence had naturally been collected within the Holy Temple.

Herman knew, Su Yuan possessed such an ability to manipulate space for defense.

Only he hadn’t expected this capability to be so strong, even his post-release Blue Steel being warded off!

Frowning, Herman spread his hands, more vigorous blue light cascaded like a waterfall surging towards Su Yuan.

Although halted by the Infinite Barrier, it still intricately wove into an impermeable steel sphere!

”Iron Binding Kill!”

Herman made a virtual grip with his right hand, the hundreds of blue steel bars instantly compressing against Su Yuan protected by Infinite Power, intending to crush him like a Molten Lava Burst Dragon.

However, with a flicker of silver light, the next moment, Su Yuan who was within the steel ball instantly teleported out!

Herman was shocked: ”What?!”

”Attempting to trap Heaven’s Dominator in a prison of scrap iron?” Su Yuan coldly laughed, the Demon Saber in his hand swirling with black light as it struck down swiftly!

In haste, Herman raised the shield in front, while his body surged with blue light for full defense.

Following the descent of the Divine Break Sword Light, blood spattered as Herman’s chest was cut open with a deep gash, the shield along with the left hand holding it being severed together!

”Damn it!!”

Herman was infuriated, seeing Su Yuan wielding the sword to kill again, he immediately uttered in a low voice: ”Holy Steel Body, Unbreakable Body!”

Instantly, a strong blue radiance erupted from Herman’s chest.

From all directions, all externally dispersed Blue Steel seemed drained of power, turning into ashen fragments dispersing in the air.

At the same time, Herman erupted with intense blue brilliance, with countless blue lights frantically interweaving and compressing, turning into a deep blue steel man in an instant!

”Clang!”

Su Yuan’s sword stroke left merely faint white marks on Herman’s body!

”Truly astonishing, worthy of the hardest [Tower]...” Su Yuan’s eyes subtly moved, feeling quite surprised.

Apart from Tisa’s peculiar ability, [Tower] Herman ought to be the strongest in defense within the Truth Secret Society!

Indeed, Herman’s move compressed superalloy tenfold from the original density, the defensive power reaching an unimaginable level, truly achieving the ”Unbreakable” status!

”Back off!”

Raising his hand, Herman’s right hand wriggled with blue light and stretched into a steel giant fist punching at Su Yuan.

With silver light flickering on Su Yuan, he suddenly appeared behind Herman, delivering another Divine Break Sword strike.

Yet despite the mighty and ever-unbreakable Divine Break Sword Light carving a deep gash, it hadn’t managed to sever Herman’s body in a single stroke!

A true form release of super defensive nature from the same tier as ”Divine Break”, or even slightly beyond...

```

Su Yuan thought rapidly in his heart.

Meanwhile, on Herman’s severed left hand, Blue Steel intertwined and gathered, directly replacing the arm and forming a steel great sword. He spun in place and slashed horizontally at Su Yuan.

A flash of silver light appeared on Su Yuan, and he instantly teleported into the air.

Herman looked up at Su Yuan, who had instantaneously teleported into the sky, with a frown.

”This spatial teleportation...!”

Regardless of distance, cooldown, or its ability to ignore steel barriers... this opponent’s teleportation was far stronger than the intelligence suggested!

And suddenly possessing such a powerful teleportation ability, did it mean embedding a new Skill Card, or is it...

Just at this moment, a surge of silver light roared up high in the sky...

For Su Yuan, in this situation, facing such a strong defensive opponent, it is naturally best to deploy Hua Tiandu with unparalleled offensive capabilities.

The Divine Break Sword Light requires a massive amount of spiritual power to cut through everything, whereas the ”Burning Ash,” similar in effect, has a very low consumption as a True Form Release skill. Sooner or later, it would burst Herman apart!

However...

Since the True Form Release was just comprehended, now is the perfect time to test it!

With his left hand tapping his chest, Su Yuan’s eyes shone brilliantly: ”From now on, standing in the sky, Infinite Profound Phoenix!”

”Clang!”

Along with a powerful and resonant phoenix cry, a burst of silver light erupted from Su Yuan’s body.

Looking down at Herman below, Su Yuan’s eyes were dazzling beyond compare with the Sky Silver Flower, and the silver spatial patterns on his body were exceptionally mysterious!

”So it truly is a True Form Release!”

Herman’s pupils contracted sharply, immediately feeling an overwhelming pressure coming upon him!

Vermilion Bird Guardian Su Yuan, even before releasing his True Form, had killed numerous Truth Knights, and now that his True Form is released, just how strong has he become!

”Tenfold Enclosure, Sealing Demon Tower!”

Herman formed a seal with both hands, suddenly pointing towards the sky.

In an instant, the blue clouds billowed up in the sky, countless tassel-like blue lights hung down, layer by layer, encircling Su Yuan. In just a few breaths, they formed a deep blue steel tower!

Compared to the previous rough application of Blue Steel power, this is a much more skillful technique.

The indestructible Blue Steel, besides defense, excels most at entrapment.

Herman stared intently at the interior of the tower, unsure if this move could restrict Su Yuan’s teleportation!

Su Yuan indeed did not teleport, but...

”Buzz!”

Suddenly, a muffled sound.

The densely layered Blue Steel suddenly bent, and the entire top of the steel tower expanded outward in a large arc!

Herman’s pupils contracted, hurriedly transmitting energy into the Blue Steel of the tower.

Yet in the next moment, a terrifying wave spread out, with space violently expanding that directly burst the Blue Steel tower apart, scattering in shattered blue Spirit Light across the sky!

”What?!”

Herman’s eyes trembled, never expecting that Su Yuan would break open his Blue Steel tower in this way!

”Iron Wire Frenzy!”

Outside, Herman’s Star Power surged like a tide, hundreds of Blue Steel as fierce as sinister giant pythons charged towards Su Yuan in the sky.

Seeing this, Su Yuan pointed downwards: ”Infinite.”

Like ripples on the water’s surface, the hundreds of Blue Steel rushing into the sky were all pressed below by the opened Infinite Barrier, like an impassable spatial fault line!

At the same time, Su Yuan raised his right hand, a ball of silver light appeared in his palm, and swiftly grew brighter at an astonishing pace!

Feeling the increasingly terrifying wave on the silver light sphere, Herman’s heart tightened, realizing he couldn’t break through Su Yuan’s Infinite Barrier and immediately retreated.

Su Yuan remained calm, his eyes with twin Sky Silver Flowers locked onto the retreating Herman, a vast amount of Space Power was wildly converging into the Sky God Jade in his hand.

Herman’s heart pounded wildly, discovering that no matter how much he retreated, a feeling of dread lingered in his heart.

A few breaths later, the space behind slightly twisted, and suddenly a silver light sphere brimming with destructive waves flew over!

”What?!”

Herman was shocked, immediately turning and crossing his arms in front of him.

The Sky God Jade flickered briefly before expanding and exploding into an extremely dazzling silver light, instantly turning everything within a few miles into dust!

”Boom!!”

A few moments later, the silver light dissipated.

In a gigantic crater, Herman, from head to toe, had deep blue steel greatly fractured, with much blood seeping from the shattered steel body.

No wonder he’s Herman the [Tower], he managed to withstand even this.

Understand, with the True Form Release, this strike with the Sky God Jade was much stronger than before.

At this moment, Herman was struggling to support himself on the ground, trying to stand up.

However, with a flash of silver light, Su Yuan had already dashed over, stepping on Herman’s chest!

”With this, it should be able to pierce through your defenses now.”

Su Yuan leaned over to glare at Herman, the highly compressed Space Power in his left eye made one’s scalp tingle!

Herman’s pupils quivered violently, filled with desperation, struggling frantically to break away.

Yet, the intense Infinite Power radiated from Su Yuan’s body, pressing the steel-broken Herman firmly onto the ground!

The next moment, the Sky Silver Flower bloomed radiantly.

A beam of silver light instantly shot onto Herman’s face, barely stalling before piercing through and shooting down for an unknown distance!

Infinite Void.

In an instant, the silver light faded.

Su Yuan squinted his right eye slightly.

And below, most of Herman’s head had completely been erased under the annihilating Space Power...
