Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 231: Chapter 192 Snowflake Imprint_2

Situ Qingyin’s expression brightened slightly upon hearing this: “In that case, there might be Snow Crystal Stone!”

“However, Frost Grapes are only a first-level material. Finding higher-level materials through this method might not be so easy. The challenge is secondary. The main goal is to find other Snowflake Imprints…”

While Su Yuan was deep in thought, Situ Qingyin pondered for a moment and said: “Su Yuan, let’s split up and search!”

“Hmm?” Su Yuan was about to refuse.

Are you kidding? Not finding the Snow Crystal Stone is a small matter. If something happens to her, my teacher will flay me alive when we return…

Situ Qingyin insisted: “These challenges are meant to be completed solo. I’m of no help if I’m just standing beside you. Besides, your strength far exceeds mine. Following you would only slow you down. As for my safety, don’t worry. My grandfather equipped me with plenty of lifesaving items this time, including a Space Transfer Talisman. Even if I can’t beat someone, I can escape. You’ll be fine!”

As she spoke, Situ Qingyin took out two talismans and handed one to Su Yuan.

“This is a paired Communication Talisman. Its range is considerable. We should be able to communicate throughout this ancient city. If there’s danger or any new discovery, we can contact each other through this.”

Looking at the Communication Talisman being handed over, Su Yuan couldn’t help but ponder.

Along the way, although he was the one mainly cleaning up the Star Beasts, Situ Qingyin didn’t seem weak based on his observations.

She was almost at the Silver High Stage, had a blue Soul Card, and her Six-dimensional Qualifications were decent. But those weren’t the main points. As the granddaughter of a Refining Master, a master herself, Situ Qingyin lacked no equipment!

From head to toe: longsword, bracelet, ring… she had no less than five blue Star Artifacts of various kinds, not to mention the treasures in her Space Ring!

In addition, she had plenty of offensive, defensive, and healing talismans.

Even with less combat experience, her equipment alone could easily crush most opponents.

Plus, with a Space Transfer Talisman, as long as she was careful, there shouldn’t be any major issues.

For himself, acting solo would indeed improve efficiency.

With that in mind, Su Yuan didn’t think much more and took the Communication Talisman.

“Okay, be careful and focus on self-preservation. If you encounter danger, use the transfer talisman immediately. I’ll find the Snow Crystal Stone for you.”

Situ Qingyin smiled: “Don’t worry!”

Su Yuan nodded and used Wind Walking to swiftly advance into the depths of the ancient city alone.

Situ Qingyin watched as Su Yuan disappeared from view in a few leaps, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Clearly, he was helping her find materials, yet she felt like a burden…

Situ Qingyin felt the pressure easing. Now, not only had she freed Su Yuan, but she could also contribute.

“I should start moving too.”

Situ Qingyin gathered herself and cautiously began moving in a chosen direction.

After a while, near a small building.

With a faint white halo, Su Yuan’s figure appeared.

Su Yuan looked at a piece of grayish-white metal in his hand and put it away casually.

“The Snowflake Imprints found consecutively have only yielded some first-level materials or white Star Cards. Considering the relics of such an ancient city, it shouldn’t just have these ordinary items. It seems the distribution of Snowflake rewards is particular. Although the exact rules are unclear, generally speaking, the better items are likely in the city center or some important places in the city…”

Su Yuan looked toward the deep part of the ancient city. Compared to the nearby low green-brick walls, he could vaguely see numerous pavilions and palaces in the distance.

“Then, I’ll head straight to the depths.”

Su Yuan made up his mind and was about to leap forward quickly when suddenly, from the right corner of the street ahead, a series of uniform footsteps echoed.

Su Yuan looked towards the intersection: “Oh, something’s coming?”

Soon, a team of silver-armored soldiers with sharp blades, their faces obscured, emerged from the right side of the street not far ahead.

Two cavalry, twenty infantry, and eight archers—all at the Silver Stage!

This team seemed to be heading straight for Su Yuan, turning directly onto the path where he stood.

The archers in the rear drew their bows, while the two cavalry in front gripped their lances tightly, leading the infantry in a charge!

“A thirty-man humanoid battalion—quite a spectacle…”

Su Yuan flipped his hand and drew out the Phoenix Perch Saber. With a thought, pitch-black Space Power surged onto the blade, stirring intensely.

“Boundary Breaking Line.”

Su Yuan casually swung his saber, and a pitch-black line, exuding a heart-pounding fluctuation, appeared in front of him. It shot forward, slashing towards the approaching silver-armored soldiers!

The two cavalry bore the brunt. The terrifying space-cutting power was irresistible. In an instant, both were cleaved in half along with their mounts.

As for the infantry and archers behind, they fell like grass, severed at the waist, leaving a field of corpses.

Within seconds, the many corpses on the ground turned into a vast expanse of white snow again.

“As expected, similar to the creatures in the Snowflake Imprint challenges, they are a type of creature formed under the Secret Realm rules… hmm? This is… a Star Card?”

Su Yuan gazed at the snow-covered ground ahead. Amidst the snow lay two Star Cards emitting a faint glow.

Su Yuan stepped forward and picked up the Star Cards.

[Winter Snow City Archer (Summoning)]

[Grade: White]

[Introduction: Can summon Winter Snow City Archers with superb archery skills. They never miss, hitting their mark from a hundred steps away!]

—

[Winter Snow City Archer]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Element: None]

[Species: Human]

[Talent: Precision]

[Six Dimensions: Strength: E, Agility: E, Defense: F, Constitution: F, Spirit: F, Star Power: F]

[Skills: Continuous Arrow (White), Multiple Arrows Fired (White), Frost Arrow (White)]

“Winter Snow City? Is this ancient city named Winter Snow City?”

“And although these Secret Realm creatures in the city don’t have Star Cores, they can drop Summoning Cards based on them…”

Su Yuan was quite surprised, then looked at the other card:

[Winter Snow City Cavalry (Summoning)]

[Grade: Green]

[Introduction: Can summon Winter Snow City Cavalry with powerful physiques. Each is a formidable force, unmatched in battle!]

…

“So weak…” Su Yuan shook his head. “The introduction is impressive, but they’re actually very weak.”

Though these two cards were weak, it indicated that the relics of this ancient city had value beyond the Snowflake Imprints. They also lay in these Secret Realm creatures turned Summoning Cards…

“This ancient city has quite an array of items.”

Su Yuan casually decomposed the two cards, then with a flick of his body, headed straight towards the deeper parts of the Secret Realm…
