Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 637: Chapter 504: Those Who Want to Kill Me Must Die

“Last battle?” The Blood Robed Youth raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice, “Who are you? I haven’t heard of a master like you before.”

“Who am I?” The Demon Soul stroked the Black Flame Long Saber in his hand and chuckled, “You can call me… Demon Saber!”

“Demon Saber?” The Blood Robed Youth snorted coldly, “Stop being mysterious. Prepare to die!”

With a thought, the Blood Robed Youth had the Buddha statue make a seal with its hands.

“Shakyamuni Buddha Wheel!”

A flash of golden light, and a massive golden wheel with swirling blood light instantly appeared in front of the Buddha statue, spinning rapidly towards the Demon Saber in the distance.

Fired up by battle, the Demon Soul didn’t dodge. He swung the Demon Saber and flew directly to attack!

With a loud “clang,” the Blood Gold Buddha Wheel collided fiercely with the Black Flame Long Saber, sending a shower of sparks as the powerful impact pushed the Demon Soul back several dozen meters!

“That strength… not bad!”

The Demon Soul grinned, and with a surge of black flames on the saber, he exerted more force and split the Buddha Wheel in half!

But at this moment, the next wave of attacks from the Blood Robed Youth had already come.

“Thousand Buddha Hands, Heaven and Earth Net!”

Behind the Buddha statue, a waterfall of blood light cascaded down as countless giant arms grew wildly like a peacock displaying its feathers, sealing the Demon Soul from all directions!

“Outer Path Avatar. You’re not the only one who has it.”

Watching the approaching Blood-colored Buddha Hands, the Demon Soul placed his left hand on his chest.

“Then let’s fight fire with fire. Void Evil Manifesting Saints!”

Surging Undead Evil Fire burst from the Purple Demon Spirit, forming a gigantic black figure with an awe-inspiring presence within moments!

Clad in Evil Fire Armor and wielding the Black Sky Blade transformed after entering the Transformation Realm, its terrifying aura was in no way inferior to the hundred-zhang tall Blood-colored Buddha statue!

As they watched this unfold, the people on the riverbank were all stunned by the spectacle!

“Old Zhang, the Ten Sects Swordfight… is it on this level?”

“I… I don’t know,” the tall, thin youth gulped, “I’ve never seen it…”

The Ten Sects Swordfight wasn’t something everyone could watch. Ordinary people only knew the outcomes and general process from hearsay.

Though they had heard that the Ten Sects Swordfight gathered geniuses from all the major sects.

But now, looking at the confrontation between the Blood-colored Buddha statue and the pitch-black giant, they felt that even the Ten Sects Swordfight might be just like this…

“He also has Outer Path Skills?” The Blood Robed Youth’s brow furrowed. Even inside the Buddha statue, he could faintly feel the immense pressure from Void Evil Manifesting Saints!

The Demon Soul controlled the Void Evil Manifesting Saints to slash continuously, using the sharpness of the Black Sky Blade to cut off many of the approaching Buddha hands.

Moreover, under the effect of the Black Sky Blade, the Undead Evil Fire quickly spread from the severed parts along the arms towards the Buddha statue!

“That black saber is so sharp. It must be Epic Grade!”

The Blood Robed Youth’s eyes darkened. Seeing the Undead Evil Fire spreading along the blood-colored arms, he dissolved the severed Buddha hands into the Blood Sea below.

Although the Demon Soul cleared the Buddha hands in front of him with a few strikes, countless more continued to rush in, as if they were endless, and their recycling into the Blood Sea made them seemingly unkillable.

The Demon Soul focused, and the Flame Luo Ling around Shanglin Ancient Port expanded, blocking the Buddha hands attacking from all sides.

Seizing this opportunity, the Void Evil Manifesting Saints bent its legs slightly, gripping the blade at its side, and took a stance.

“Hmm?” The Blood Robed Youth’s pupils contracted, “Does his Outer Path also use that Martial Skill…”

Black flames surged in the eyes of the Void Evil Manifesting Saints. The gigantic black figure flashed, slicing through the Buddha hands in its path, aiming directly at the Buddha statue.

However, with a “clang,” the Black Sky Blade was blocked by a gold Demon-Subduing Pestle.

The blade and pestle collided, but the pestle didn’t bear a single mark, clearly another Epic Star Artifact.

“An Epic Star Artifact specifically assigned to this Buddha statue…” The Demon Soul was rather surprised.

His Void Evil Manifesting Saints naturally came with the Black Sky Blade after the Transformation Realm, but not all Outer Path Avatars had weapons.

Crafting Star Artifacts specifically for Outer Path Avatars would require many materials, especially for large avatars.

Therefore, during such times, Star Artifacts that could change in size were usually crafted, equally usable by the wielder and the avatar.

Like the Flame Luo Ling, which had such an effect, and this Demon-Subduing Pestle appeared to be the same.

The Void Evil Manifesting Saints stood off against the Blood-colored Buddha statue, with the Demon Soul and the Blood Robed Youth exchanging glances before resuming their fierce battle…

…

Meanwhile, in the forest.

After leaving the stronghold, Lv Han concealed his aura and hurried back with all his might, nervous and on edge.

“Liu Xiao shouldn’t have run away!” Lv Han’s face was grim, and he was uncertain.

While the Hundred Origin Sect members said the one at the stronghold was the demon cultivator they were looking for.

But there were clearly enemies elsewhere, and the exact situation was unknown.

Just then, Lv Han sensed something and immediately halted, drawing his long saber and vigilantly scanning his surroundings.

“Who’s there!”

Lv Han shouted testily to probe.

But after a while, there was no movement.

“Am I just too tense?”

Thinking so, Lv Han maintained his vigilance for a while longer, but nothing happened.

He relaxed a bit and was about to continue when suddenly a multitude of blood-colored branches burst from the ground around him and thrust at him rapidly!

“Hmm?!” Lv Han’s expression changed. He quickly drew his long saber and slashed out repeatedly.

“Ice Goose Ten Strikes!”

Frost like a chain. Cross cold air shot out from Lv Han, spinning around and cutting all the attacking blood-colored branches in an instant!

Lv Han relaxed slightly, “Heh, looks like the attacker is rather weak…”

But at this moment, a shallow blood-color spread across the ground. From all directions, countless blood Bodhi branches swarmed in, ten times the amount from before!

“Damn it!”

Lv Han’s pupils contracted. He immediately formed a seal with his hand.

“Ice Sealing Technique!”

As soon as the seal was complete, a layer of intense ice-cold energy surged from Lv Han, forming an ice crystal a zhang high that encased him within moments.

“Thud, thud, thud…”

Countless blood Bodhi branches struck the ice crystal, unable to penetrate, and instead got frozen onto it.

This was Lv Han’s accidentally acquired epic defense skill—the Ice Sealing Technique.

Though he had only achieved it at Master Level, its defensive power was extraordinary.

However, this skill had a major flaw. During its use, the caster couldn’t move unless they chose to end the skill, making it less flexible.

Still, an Epic Skill was preferable to a blue one, and at critical moments, it could block an enemy’s ultimate moves.

For now, the numerous blood Bodhi branches couldn’t break the ice crystal.

At that moment, a blood-colored figure walked toward him.

Seeing this person, Lv Han’s eyes widened in alarm and disbelief.

“Damn! Why is he here!”

This person was none other than the demon cultivator from the stronghold!

“Could it be that the Hundred Origin Sect lost? No, that’s not right…”

Lv Han barely had time to think. The Blood Robed Youth raised his hand, summoning a massive blood hand that crashed down from above!

“Boom!”

The ice crystal only showed a few cracks under the impact.

This proved that the Ice Sealing Technique’s defense was indeed strong.

But the Blood Robed Youth didn’t hesitate. Blood light swirled around him, condensing several giant blood hands that smashed down together as Lv Han’s face turned pale!

“Boom, boom, boom!”

“Damn it!”

Even though the Ice Sealing Technique was tough, under such relentless attacks, ice shards splintered, and cracks spread. It wouldn’t hold for much longer!

At this moment, Lv Han realized the truth, looking at the emotionless Blood Robed Youth.

“Could it be… all of these are the demon cultivator’s clones?”

Realizing this, Lv Han’s pupils trembled violently, feeling a chilling fear rise from his heart.

If the clones were this strong, the real one must be terrifying!

“If that’s the case, everyone will die here! No, wait… there’s those strong Hundred Origin Sect disciples. I just need to hold on a bit longer, and someone might come to help!”

With this thought, Lv Han’s hope rekindled.

Just then, golden chains shot out from the night, wrapping around the Blood Robed Youth and binding him tightly!

“What?” Lv Han quickly looked in the direction.

A silver-eyed youth in a black robe walked toward him.

“It’s him?”

Lv Han recognized him immediately. It was the individual he had cheated out of 10,000 Cent Star Stones.

Lv Han was greatly surprised, but any help was welcome, especially since this person had managed to control the Blood Robed Youth.

“Brother, please help me!” Lv Han shouted from within the ice crystal.

To Lv Han, as long as Su Yuan came over, even if he couldn’t defeat the Blood Robed Youth, he could distract him, allowing Lv Han to end the Ice Sealing Technique and escape, then return to the shore and sail away.

Blood light surged around the Blood Robed Youth, attempting to break free from the Heavenly Lock.

Lv Han grew anxious, urging, “Brother, kill him! He’s a demon cultivator!”

“Okay, no problem,” Su Yuan smiled, flashing to the Blood Robed Youth’s side.

With a flip of his hand, he drew the Demon Saber. In a series of black flashes, the bound Blood Robed Youth was sliced into pieces and exploded into countless fragments!

“???” Lv Han stared at the scene, stunned.

The demon cultivator’s clone, which even the Hundred Origin Sect couldn’t handle, was annihilated in an instant?

“He is this strong?!”

Several seconds later, Lv Han gulped, his mind in turmoil!

Seeing the relaxed black-robed youth, thinking about how he had tried to overcharge and kill this “fat sheep,” Lv Han felt an overwhelming sense of surviving a disaster.

“Captain Lv, are you alright?” Su Yuan asked with a smile.

“N-no problem! Thank you, brother, for saving me,” Lv Han retracted the Ice Sealing Technique, suppressing his astonishment.

“Your strength is truly remarkable!”

Su Yuan retracted the Heavenly Lock, casually saying, “Not too bad.”

Lv Han’s eyes shifted, forcing a smile and bowing toward Su Yuan.

“Earlier incident over the boat fare was my mistake. I’ll refund the excess fare… no, full refund! Just consider it my way of thanking you. Please don’t hold it against me!”

Su Yuan laughed, “Captain Lv, no need for jokes. I don’t bear a grudge over some Spirit Stones.”

Lv Han internally sighed with relief, joyful, about to say something.

“However… if someone wants to kill me, then they must die.”

“What?!” Lv Han’s face changed drastically.

The next moment, the crimson blade had already pierced his chest.

Su Yuan smiled faintly, “When I bought the ticket and got off the boat… your killing intent was far too obvious.”

“You!…”

Lv Han tried to speak, but Su Yuan wasn’t interested. The Demon Saber twisted, the fierce Space Power from the blade tore him into a mist of blood…
