Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 690: 547

“That’s truly impressive, Qin Lianyun. You are much stronger than I imagined! I didn’t expect that I, Tong Ming, would encounter an opponent like you in this sword fight!”

Tong Ming stared intently at Su Yuan while raising the two swords in his hands.

The two longswords gradually turned from solid to ethereal, with blood and evil auras rising and intertwining. In a short moment, they merged into a single long black-red sword covered in demon patterns!

A fierce glint flashed in Tong Ming’s eyes as he decisively retracted the Blood Slaughter Domain that was blocking the Evil Fire and Thunder, pouring all the blood and evil energy into the longsword.

Immediately, a sky-rending demonic aura erupted, and a horrific energy wave surged from the black-red longsword!

“I will risk it all and fight to the death!”

Su Yuan knew that this was Tong Ming’s final strike.

“Slash!”

Tong Ming lowly shouted, directly holding the sword as he lunged, sweeping away the Undead Evil Fire and slashing toward Su Yuan!

“Undying Starry Sky!”

Starlight flourished, and countless stars illuminated around Su Yuan as he unleashed his strongest defense.

The black-red longsword instantly struck the starry defense, causing all the stars both inside and outside to shimmer violently under the terrifying sword light!

“Bang, bang, bang!…”

In just a few moments, the stars exploded where the longsword passed, and large swaths of starlight were torn apart by the blood slaughter sword light!

One must know that even Feng Xuanqing’s Liangyi Dust couldn’t break through the Undying Starry Sky in an instant, yet Tong Ming’s sword, enhanced by the Blood Slaughter Saint Body, was terrifyingly powerful.

However, Tong Ming put his all into this strike, betting everything on this single sword.

If his opponent didn’t die, he himself would die!

“Kill!”

Tong Ming’s eyes flashed with red light, and with a roar, he slashed through countless starlights, rapidly advancing toward the center where Su Yuan stood!

Meanwhile, Su Yuan had already dissipated the condensed Demon Saber Clone. The Demon Saber in his right hand was infused with Black Fire and Golden Wind, with his Space Power added last.

Although Su Yuan’s own Space Star Power seemed inferior compared to the two divine objects, with full exertion, it was at least sufficient to deal with the opponent in front of him.

Seeing Tong Ming rushing at him within moments, Su Yuan’s eyes turned cold: “Three Extremes Return to One!”

“Buzz!”

The Demon Saber hummed and swiftly slashed out.

When the blade and sword clashed, the scene fell into a sudden silence, followed by an extremely dazzling spirit light radiating in all directions, illuminating the entire space!

After a moment, the spirit light dissipated.

Tong Ming’s black-red longsword was gone, and a huge sword wound almost split his body in two!

“I… lost?” Tong Ming muttered in a daze.

Su Yuan didn’t waste words with him, stepping forward and cutting off his head, then retrieving the Space Ring and Moon Disk from his body.

Seeing the undamaged Moon Milk within the Moon Disk, Su Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Compared to killing him, it was more difficult to avoid damaging the Moon Disk…”

With the Undying Starry Sky absorbing most of Tong Ming’s sword energy, it wasn’t difficult for Su Yuan to win this clash.

If he had used Sword Above Nine Heavens for a ranged attack, Tong Ming might not have even gotten close.

However, with the attack range of Sword Above Nine Heavens, the Moon Disk containing the fourteen drops of Heavenly Mountain Moon Milk might not have survived…

Suddenly, a mass of black energy surged wildly where Tong Ming died.

“Oh?” Su Yuan squinted and looked over.

The black light expanded and formed the Ksitigarbha.

The Ksitigarbha opened its mouth and swallowed Tong Ming’s remaining soul, then with a flicker of its figure, attempted to fly away.

Recalling how Zhong Xiu had been resurrected once before, Su Yuan realized what was happening.

“Can it really bring him back to life and regenerate? Impressive…”

Su Yuan genuinely marveled, understanding why Tong Ming could cultivate the merged Blood Evil Body.

If the Ksitigarbha could truly resurrect Tong Ming, it provided a margin for error, preventing him from fearing a shattered body.

At this moment, the Ksitigarbha kept darting around in the subspace but couldn’t find an exit.

The Ksitigarbha opened its hands, swirling black light in its palms, trying to create a passage to escape the Qingming Realm.

“Don’t think you can run here.”

Su Yuan wouldn’t give it any chances, golden light shining at his feet. The Heavenly Lock soared up and wrapped around the Ksitigarbha.

Golden patterns on the lock flowed with profound energy, freezing the Ksitigarbha in place, unable to move.

“The legend name?”

Su Yuan quickly realized that the lock’s inherent power had become so strong due to the Ksitigarbha’s famed status.

The Ksitigarbha was a well-known deity in both the Southern Continent and the East Continent, so the Heavenly Lock’s sealing power reached its peak!

“Thunder.”

Su Yuan calmly ordered. Thunderclouds gathered in the sky, and countless bolts of thunder struck the Ksitigarbha in no time.

Though the thunder caused the black light around the Ksitigarbha to tremble slightly, the effect wasn’t significant.

“A Spiritual Energy Body, how troublesome…”

Su Yuan frowned, about to use the Undead Evil Fire to burn it.

But suddenly, Su Yuan recalled something.

“That’s right…”

He remembered he wasn’t entirely without means for a Spiritual Attack.

Looking at the locked Ksitigarbha, Su Yuan flew over, placing his hand on it. A flash of black light, and he brought it into Subspace No. 2.

“Flame Dragon, devour it!”

With Su Yuan’s command, seven Erosion Sun Flame Dragons flew out from the Locking Yang Pond, silently roaring as they charged at the Ksitigarbha.

Immediately, large swathes of black qi were scattered and torn apart from the Ksitigarbha’s body, which became increasingly ethereal at a visible speed!

“Oh? Not bad.”

Su Yuan nodded slightly.

Just then, the black light on the Ksitigarbha’s face changed dramatically, transforming into Tong Ming’s face.

“Friend Qin, spare me!” Tong Ming looked terrified.

His power of the soul, “Soul Vessel Ksitigarbha,” could gather souls, and after his death, it could devour his soul, using stored Blood Essence to reconstruct his body and resurrect him!

This ability had allowed him to escape death many times and even cultivate the Blood Killing Demon Body, making him feel like the chosen one.

However, the space barrier here was far more formidable than he had imagined, and the Soul Vessel Ksitigarbha couldn’t pass through.

What was this golden chain?

Locked by the Soul Vessel Ksitigarbha, he couldn’t even resist!

With the Erosion Sun Intense Flame burning him, the Ksitigarbha became more illusory, and Tong Ming felt death closing in!

“Friend Qin, you’ve already taken the Moon Milk from the Moon Disk. Spare me, and I’ll help you win first place in this sword fight!

After leaving the secret realm, I will follow your lead!

Friend Qin, stop now!”

Su Yuan sneered: “I can win first place myself. Why would I need you?

As for after we leave… having too many followers is not good. I already have enough subordinates.”

With a thought, Su Yuan fully activated the array. The seven dragons merged into one massive and ferocious Erosion Sun Dragon King, which swallowed the Ksitigarbha in one gulp!

“No!…”

A shrill scream echoed.

But it soon ceased.

With fiery flames swirling around it, the Erosion Sun Dragon King descended and separated back into seven Erosion Sun Flame Dragons, returning to the Locking Yang Pond.

“Puja puja (Master is mighty)!” Ruan Ruan enthusiastically cheered for Su Yuan.

Su Yuan smiled, pinching it as he carefully scanned the area with his All-Knowing Vision. Confirming Tong Ming’s death, he returned to Subspace No. 1 with Ruan Ruan.

“Master!”

Mo Fei hurried over, bearing numerous injuries, including two deep sword cuts down to the bone. But Mo Fei’s expression was full of excitement.

Ashley and Antonios also greeted: “Boss.”

“Well done.”

Su Yuan nodded slightly, then looked at the two Blood Puppets, Zhong Xiu and Ji Changye, beside the trio.

Previously, the three of them had the upper hand.

And just now, when Su Yuan killed Tong Ming, the two Blood Puppets stopped moving, and Antonios severed their mobility with a silver dagger.

At this moment, with Tong Ming, the source of their power, gone, their Blood Puppet bodies began to dissipate into strands of Blood Power.

Without Tong Ming’s control, their self-consciousness even became clearer.

“Friend Qin.”

Zhong Xiu suddenly spoke.

Su Yuan walked up and said: “Friends.”

Looking at Su Yuan, Zhong Xiu gratefully said: “Thank you, Friend Qin, for freeing us.”

Su Yuan replied: “I did it for myself.”

Sikong Liu added: “Being able to have a final fight with a master like you, I am content.”

Su Yuan slightly bowed in return.

Zhong Xiu pondered for a moment before saying: “Friend Qin, I have an unreasonable request. Could you take our swords back to our sect?”

Su Yuan glanced to the side. Zhong Xiu’s azure cloud-pattern sword and Sikong Liu’s white golden seal ancient sword were not far away, restricted by Ashley’s Holy Light.

Their swords were Epic Star Artifacts, not as precious as the Demon Saber and Heavenly Lock but comparable to the Black Moon Divine Branch, of great value.

Zhong Xiu continued: “Friend Qin, don’t worry. I won’t let you do it for nothing. Sword Venerable Lou outside is my master and is very close to my father.

You can find a jade pendant in my belongings as a token. If you can bring our swords back, you will not suffer a loss.”

Sikong Liu also looked over, a hint of hope in his eyes.

For genuine sword cultivators like Zhong Xiu and Sikong Liu, their swords were as important as their lives.

Since they couldn’t die whole, they hoped their swords could return to their sect.

“Alright.”

After some thought, Su Yuan agreed.

He had the Demon Saber, and their swords were not of much use to him.

Since that was the case, he might as well see what he could gain from a king-level powerhouse.

“Thank you, Friend.”

“Much appreciated!”

Zhong Xiu and Sikong Liu breathed a sigh of relief, their eyes full of gratitude.

After a while, with some regret and reluctance, the blood light dissipated, and Zhong Xiu and Sikong Liu disappeared before Su Yuan…
