Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 655: Chapter 517: All Arrive

After breaking through the first layer of the great formation, another radiant light shone down from above.

Su Yuan retracted the Heavenly Lock and directly led Ashley into the next layer.

The scenery before them changed, revealing another array, a Liangyi Formation of light and dark.

This time, it took Su Yuan a full ten minutes to solve it.

In the third layer, a Three Talents Overlapping Array formed by three different kinds of poisons.

In this layer, Su Yuan couldn’t be bothered to break the formation. The Undead Evil Fire roared out and directly burned the three poison sources to ashes.

Next came the Four Symbols Formation, the Five Elements Formation… each one laid out according to different array theories.

Su Yuan’s speed in breaking the formations slowed down significantly. It wasn’t just that the subsequent formations grew increasingly complex. Many of the array structures and transformations were ones Su Yuan had never seen before. He needed time to calculate, scrutinize, and test…

Somewhere inside the Secret Realm.

Feng Xuanqing gathered qi in his palm with a wave of his hand and directly shattered the two red-robed cultivators who had charged at him.

Mo Zhe Mei, standing beside him, clapped his hands in praise: “Senior Brother Xuanqing, you are truly formidable. These red-robed cultivators probably had the strength of true inheritors from ordinary sects, yet they couldn’t withstand even one move from you.”

Feng Xuanqing expressionlessly withdrew his hand and asked, “Friend Mo, calculate again. In which direction?”

“No problem.” Mo Zhe Mei retrieved a plum branch and was about to perform another divination.

But just then, Feng Xuanqing suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly.

“What’s wrong?” Mo Zhe Mei asked hastily.

“No need to calculate. I already know where it is.” Feng Xuanqing turned his head and looked toward a certain place, where clear energy flowed in his eyes, and gazed deeply into the ruins.

Under the divine thought sensing of the Supreme Sensing Scripture, Feng Xuanqing’s heart suddenly surged with an extremely strong premonition…

The Divine Wind seemed about to be seized by someone else!

Cold light flashed in his eyes. Feng Xuanqing said coldly, “Friend Mo, follow me!”

Feng Xuanqing didn’t even look at the treasures in the pavilion guarded by the two red-robed cultivators. He immediately leapt toward the high tower in the depths.

Knowing the urgency of the situation, Mo Zhe Mei quickly followed.

After a while, the two arrived before the Triangular Tower.

Looking up at the tower, they saw numerous sun, moon, and star runes.

However, at that moment, all the moon-related runes had dimmed, and the moon-shaped entrance at the base of the tower was already closed.

“So someone has already gone inside…”

Feng Xuanqing looked at the Triangular Tower and immediately walked into the star-shaped entrance before him.

Entering the tower, the stars floated ahead. Before them stood a cold and stern youth in black robes.

The youth held a longsword, with starlight gleaming in his eyes, clearly a sword cultivator of sword brows and starry eyes.

“Star Guardian, Fu Jianjing”

Seeing the black robe and badge on the youth, Feng Xuanqing’s expression didn’t change.

As Feng Xuanqing and Mo Zhe Mei walked forward, the starlight on the black-robed youth flashed and he vanished from his original position. The next moment, he suddenly struck out from behind Feng Xuanqing!

However, to everyone’s surprise, Feng Xuanqing seemed to have anticipated this. He turned around in advance and calmly reached out with his slender fingers, catching the longsword of the black-robed youth.

The black-robed youth’s eyes filled with shock and suspicion, as starlight surged from his sword, trying to escape Feng Xuanqing’s grasp.

But an enigmatic, invisible force traveled along the longsword from Feng Xuanqing’s fingertips.

Heaven and earth were connected, and the secrets were foretold.

As if sealed by something, the black-robed youth felt a force using the longsword as a medium, binding him to the person before him, immobilizing him!

Feng Xuanqing said indifferently, “A relic of a bygone era should have long been buried in the river of time. Why bother coming out again?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of clear energy flowed out of Feng Xuanqing’s body, separating into another Feng Xuanqing, who struck the black-robed youth in the chest amidst his astonished gaze.

The black-robed youth’s pupils froze. Then, with a “boom,” his whole body exploded into a large spread of starlight.

Seeing Feng Xuanqing so effortlessly deal with his opponent, Mo Zhe Mei’s expression stiffened.

Feng Xuanqing’s strength had improved a lot compared to a year ago…

Mo Zhe Mei had gotten to know Feng Xuanqing through assisting in a task to eliminate evil cultivators a year ago.

At that time, Feng Xuanqing was nearly invincible among the Shining Stars. He even led Mo Zhe Mei to escape from an unexpected Radiant Moon-level enemy!

And now, a year later, Feng Xuanqing’s strength had become even more unfathomable!

With the black-robed youth’s death, a beam of light descended from the sky ahead.

Feng Xuanqing’s two bodies merged like smoke. After glancing at the light in front, he proceeded with Mo Zhe Mei.

But just as they were about to step into the light, Feng Xuanqing’s heart suddenly surged with a strong premonition.

Staring at the light ahead, Feng Xuanqing felt that if he stepped forward, he might lose control of his destiny!

Since mastering the Supreme Sensing Scripture, it was the first time Feng Xuanqing had felt such an intense and unpredictable sense of foreboding.

Even when he had unexpectedly encountered a Radiant Moon-level evil cultivator in the past, he had never felt this way!

Seeing Feng Xuanqing suddenly stop, Mo Zhe Mei also sensed something. He immediately took out a plum branch for another divination.

Plum blossoms drifted, forming an Eight Diagram.

Mo Zhe Mei broke off a petal from the plum branch and let it gently fall.

At this moment, a strand of clear wind seemed to blow within the otherwise windless space.

The plum blossom floated and eventually landed outside the Eight Diagram.

“The future is unpredictable, destiny uncertain…” Mo Zhe Mei’s pupils contracted as he said in a deep voice to Feng Xuanqing, “Senior Brother Xuanqing, this journey is likely to be fraught with difficulties.”

“Even if it’s difficult, I must fight. How can I pursue the ultimate path if I retreat at such a moment?”

“Senior Brother Xuanqing, this is a great ominous sign…”

“It’s nothing more than the end of my life.” Feng Xuanqing interrupted Mo Zhe Mei, his eyes firm. He then decisively stepped into the falling starlight.

Mo Zhe Mei paused, a hint of admiration rising in his eyes.

People like Feng Xuanqing, who pursued the ultimate strength to the extreme, could continue to grow stronger at an astonishing rate.

After a brief hesitation, Mo Zhe Mei took a deep breath and followed.

As previously mentioned, Feng Xuanqing had dealt with Bian Xinghe for him. Therefore, he was determined to give his all in this journey; there was no way he would leave…

…

It was unknown how much time had passed, but a red rainbow flashed outside, and three people descended from the sky.

“Senior Sister Yan, it’s inside here.” Liu He said.

Yan Qing replied, “Liu He, are you sure your tracking technique is accurate?”

Liu He nodded, “Rest assured, Senior Sister Yan. I have practiced this magic to perfection and it won’t be wrong.”

Wang Meifei scrutinized the Triangular Tower: “This tower seems to be some sort of sealing place…”

Liu He also looked over: “The three lights of the sun, moon, and stars remain only with sunlight shining. It seems that two people have already gone inside.”

Wang Meifei pondered, “The one who caused Yan Zhen’s death must be one of them. Senior Sister Yan, should we wait outside or…?”

Yan Qing said coldly, “This tower looks quite unusual. If something changes, the people inside may not come out from here…”

“So what do you mean, Sister?”

“Chase in and kill him!” A chilling and viscous intent to kill surged from Yan Qing. “Xiao Zhen is dead; he must die too!”

Feeling the cold killing intent at such a close distance, Liu He and Wang Meifei couldn’t help but shudder.

After all, the two sisters didn’t get along within the sect. They didn’t even greet each other when they met, and many people didn’t know they were related.

Yet, unexpectedly, their feelings for each other ran so deep…

Just then, Yan Qing’s gaze shifted. She formed a sword seal with her left hand, and the True Yang Treasure Sword shot toward a certain spot on the right!

In the distance, black mist surged, and a figure was forced out, with hands spreading a counterclockwise rotating Demon Cloud vortex.

The True Yang Treasure Sword stabbed into it, its speed greatly reducing, unable to advance an inch.

“Ji Changye?”

Recognizing the person, Yan Qing frowned, then squeezed her sword technique. The True Yang Treasure Sword flew back to hover at her side.

“You’re from the Demon Sky Palace, Ji Changye?!” Wang Meifei and Liu He were shocked, quickly drawing their weapons as they looked at the black-robed youth ahead.

“Haha, what a coincidence.” Ji Changye laughed, stepping forward. “Friends from the True Yang Sect, don’t be alarmed. I happened to pass by.”

Yan Qing snorted coldly, “Who among us from True Yang Sect would be friends with someone from the Demon Sky Palace!”

Ji Changye laughed, not minding at all.

Yan Qing asked, “Why are you here?”

Ji Changye smiled, “There are many treasures in this sect remains, and this tower clearly holds something valuable. Isn’t it normal for me to come and take a look?

Strange, aren’t you all here to look for treasures too?”

Yan Qing frowned slightly. Demon Sky Palace was in the north. If they hadn’t come in advance, how could they arrive so quickly?

Ji Changye must have another agenda.

But she had her own task, so she couldn’t say much.

Yan Qing said straightforwardly, “This tower has only one remaining entrance. Ji Changye, are you going to fight me for it?”

“Not at all…” Ji Changye smiled. “I always value humility and respect for women. Since Friend Yan wants to go in, I will give you the opportunity.”

“Oh? Really?”

Yan Qing was somewhat surprised, but she was sure Ji Changye had another motive.

If he were really after treasures, to avoid any unexpected events in the Secret Realm, taking the treasure immediately would be safer.

As for humility…

Heh, could anyone believe a demon sect member would be humble? Only a fool would.

Yan Qing said, “In that case, thank you.”

Ji Changye smiled, “Please~”

Wang Meifei whispered, “Senior Sister, could he be planning something…”

“Go.” Yan Qing interrupted her coldly, “No matter what, I’m going inside…to kill that person!”

…

Watching the group enter the sun-shaped entrance, Ji Changye pondered alone.

“The one who killed Bian Xinghe is inside. Additionally, Qin Lianyun, who took down Fang Yang, seems to be inside too.

And now, Yan Qing, filled with murderous intent, has joined them… This is getting interesting!”

Ji Changye smiled.

Fang Yang was already dead. Originally, he was to return to the sect.

Midway, news came that Bian Xinghe was killed by an ambush, and he was tasked to investigate the murderer.

By using the Soul Hooking Secret Technique, he traced the trail here. Unexpectedly, he found such an intriguing situation.

“Really curious to see who will come out in the end…”
