Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1948: Chapter 1403: A Small Test

”Boom!”

With a single thunderous roar, the triple assault of Thunder, Fierce Flame, and Space shattered the golden light of meritorious virtue and fell upon the True Sect Master.

After only a brief stalemate, large cracks visibly appeared across his gilt-colored body, and in just an instant it exploded into a sky-filling surge of rolling Golden Clouds.

The three of them had a faint change in their eyes, all raising their gaze to lock onto the billowing Golden Clouds.

”If even that Vice Sect Hierarch was that formidable, this True Sect Master is probably not that easy to deal with either.” Alex gripped his spear as he spoke.

Su Yuan and Red Emperor nodded slightly. With the Vice Sect Hierarch’s tyrannical display earlier, the three naturally did not believe they could resolve this Bodhi True Sect Master so easily.

Besides... this sky-splitting tide of Golden Clouds was far too overwhelming!

Just then, as a faint ripple stirred within the Golden Clouds, True Sect Masters emerged from within one after another—five, ten, a hundred... a thousand. Looking carefully, there were actually a full one thousand of them!

”This move, huh?”

Su Yuan watched the mass of Buddhist Monks; he had indeed seen this move before.

Back when the kings of the Cangding Realm contended for supremacy, that Wuhuan Heavenly King whom Mu Kexian faced had also used a similar Clone Technique, splitting into a hundred clones to recite Buddhist Scripture in an attempt to convert Mu Kexian.

But in the hands of the True Sect Master, bolstered by a Domain, this technique was far more troublesome, with as many as one thousand clones.

”So many clones... did he use this cloning method to slip past that strike just now?” Alex mused.

Flames surged in Red Emperor’s eyes as he swept his gaze across the sky-full of clones: ”Their auras are alike; it’s impossible to distinguish where the true body is.”

”Then just kill them all!”

Alex grinned, and immediately charged out together with Red Emperor!

The Eternal Sky Spear surged with Thunder Power, swift as lightning and overwhelmingly forceful; every thrust of thunder could shatter one clone.

Red Emperor unfurled the Fiery Flame Shield of the Phoenix Red Lotus Armor, actively incinerating, and with the Power of Counterattack in concert, he too could wipe out a dozen, several dozen clones.

However, the sky was filled with True Sect Master clones—there were a full thousand of them!

Moreover, whenever a clone exploded, Golden Clouds surged within the Domain, and new clones swiftly Manifested once more.

At this moment, the sky-full of True Sect Master clones simultaneously unleashed the Buddhist Ultimate Skill famed for its ”numbers”—

”Thousand Hands Tathagata Palm!”

In an instant, palms surged like golden waves, howling and shaking the heavens!

A thousand True Sect Masters simultaneously executed the Thousand Hands Tathagata Palm, their terrifying Palm Force transforming into a million golden waves roaring between Heaven and Earth, overturning mountains and seas, blanketing the sky and earth, utterly unstoppable!

The terrifying Palm Force immediately choked off Alex and Red Emperor’s offensive, continuously shattering the defensive Spirit Light around their bodies and forcing them back again and again.

”You two fall back first.”

With a raise of Su Yuan’s hand, a ripple of Space descended upon Red Emperor and Alex; with a single backward step, they had already fallen back within the Infinite Void Silver Tree.

The million stacked palm marks transformed into a fierce, domineering golden sea, pounding ceaselessly upon the Infinite Void Silver Tree, causing the Void Divine Tree and Sky Silver Flowers to tremble violently.

Red Emperor arched a brow and said, ”This man’s Buddhist Law is bizarre; I didn’t even see clearly how he dodged just now.”

”He may not have dodged...” Silver Light flickered in Su Yuan’s eyes as he gazed at the sky-full of Buddhist Monks. ”I’ve already sensed a few clues, but I still need to seriously wound this man once more.”

Hearing this, Red Emperor pondered briefly, then tightened his grip on his long blade. ”Very well, leave it to me!”

Alex laughed heartily and said, ”I’ve long heard of Lord Yu Huang’s astounding performance in the Chaotic Star Domain battle. Today I’ll follow your command and take the chance to witness it for myself~”

Red Emperor was one of their own, that was one thing; but Alex, as the master of the Holy Temple and the Royal Knights, a leader above tens of billions, was already being exceedingly courteous with such words.

Seeing this, Su Yuan said, ”I must trouble you two.”

As the Infinite Void Silver Tree teetered on the brink under the ever-more terrifying assault accumulated by the sky-full of Buddhist Monks’ [Thousand Hands Tathagata Palm], Red Emperor clenched his long blade. The Phoenix Red Lotus Armor upon him, together with his entire body, ignited, as he assumed a certain blade-drawing stance.

Meanwhile, thunder flickered in Alex’s eyes as he marked the positions of all the Buddhist Monks high in the sky as if tagging them. He then gripped his spear with both hands, and his Thunder Domain began to violently quake...

”Boom!!”

Another cascade of a million layered Buddha Palm golden lights crashed down, nearly shattering the Infinite Void Silver Tree.

At that very moment, the skies dimmed abruptly, and within the entire universe only a single deep, azure Thunder Light remained: ”Superlative Supreme Flash!”

A lightning flash at the pinnacle of speed burst forth from below, and in but an instant, it ricocheted back and forth in midair hundreds and thousands of times!

The next moment, the sky brightened once more.

Alex still stood where he was, spear in hand, though the Electric Light upon him had dimmed somewhat.

High above, Thunder Light twined and screeched across the bodies of the sky-full of Buddhist Monks, and they all exploded into Golden Light one after another!

Within the shattered Golden Light, only one true body, wreathed in flowing Golden Light, managed to block the Eternal Sky Spear’s Puncture.

Even if the positions of the True Sect Master’s sky-full clones were constantly shifting, even if those clones could be endlessly replenished, for a ”single instant,” their positions were fixed, their numbers finite.

Alex had clearly relied on a Divine Artifact paired with Ghost-level Spear Technique to crush a thousand clones within the span of a single instant, thereby pinpointing the location of the True Sect Master’s true body. Such an utterly terrifying Strength was enough to make one’s heart tremble!

Just then, Red Emperor finally drew his blade.

”Four Extremes of Red Flame · Fire!”

As Red Emperor drew his blade and struck, every flame within the Domain—including the Red Lotus Shield surrounding him—converged upon the Fake God Long Blade in his hand.

At the instant the firelight flared, that single point of flame cleaved down upon the True Sect Master.

The Golden Light upon his body only rippled slightly, then was scorched through like thin paper by the flames; and behind that Golden Light, the True Sect Master’s body was slowly cut open in a single stroke, until the blade light pierced through and his entire form was split in two amid the burning flames!
