Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 778: Chapter 600: Ambush Plan

(PS: Yanluo Country was changed to Huo Luo Country, so they don’t all have ”Yan.”)

For spiritual skills, Su Yuan originally thought he would be satisfied with at least getting a superior Epic grade skill.

After all, Legendary skills are not something one can obtain just by wanting them; he just had to do his best.

However, he didn’t expect that he could actually increase his points in the spiritual space within the Divine Monument!

Now, not only did he smoothly obtain a Legendary skill, but it was also a Space spiritual skill that could enjoy the Soul Card’s passive enhancement bonus!

Tantai Meng looked at Su Yuan, and the astonishment in her eyes quickly subsided.

”Indeed, someone recommended by that guy couldn’t be simple... But it was really unexpected...”

Tantai Meng secretly sighed to herself.

As for what kind of Legendary skill Su Yuan got, Tantai Meng didn’t ask.

The skills passed on in the Divine Monument were related to the Soul Card, and Legendary skills were an absolute trump card even for the Burning Sun Level, so Tantai Meng was not interested in others’ privacy...

Except for a certain person.

After congratulating Su Yuan, Shen Die looked up at Tantai Meng and said, ”Spirit Venerable, can I go into the Divine Monument again?”

As an exceptionally talented disciple within the sect, Shen Die had previously entered the Divine Monument at the Shining Star Level.

Now that she had advanced to the Radiant Moon Level, she still had one more opportunity to participate in the Divine Monument trial.

Tantai Meng shook her head and said, ”No need to rush. If you enter now, you will just kill a few more Epic Star Beasts, which will only slightly enhance the power of your current skills. The effect is limited.

If you want to achieve a qualitative change, it’s better to wait until after the Full Moon; then you might have a chance to glimpse a Legendary skill.”

Shen Die nodded slightly upon hearing this: ”Thank you for the advice, Spirit Venerable.”

Tantai Meng waved her hand, ”Alright, you two can leave now. I need to deal with the Divine Monument and then I have to leave as well.”

”Yes, Spirit Venerable.”

Su Yuan and Shen Die bowed once more and then flew away.

Tantai Meng watched Su Yuan and Shen Die leave, then after a moment of thought, turned her gaze to the Divine Monument behind her.

”The energy of the Divine Monument has been consumed a lot... This time, Fang Qingxiao has really benefited again!”

Thinking this, Tantai Meng couldn’t help but feel even more annoyed. She flipped her hand to take out the letter from earlier, eyes cold, and instantly tore it into countless pieces with the flash of Spirit Light in her palm.

”Hmph... Hmm?”

Just then, among the shredded paper, a golden-red Spirit Light suddenly lit up, converging into a piece of gold foil.

Tantai Meng hurriedly took the gold foil, and after probing it with spiritual power for a while, she withdrew.

”Heh, this guy, still being so secretive...”

The corner of Tantai Meng’s mouth twitched, looking at the gold foil in her hand, she couldn’t help but laugh...

Su Yuan and Shen Die left the Divine Thought Path and returned to the front sight and walked down the mountain.

”Shen Die, thanks a lot this time. If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t even have met Spirit Venerable Tantai.”

Shen Die shook her head with a smile: ”It’s not because of me. I’m afraid it’s because Spirit Venerable Tantai heard about Fang Yu’s presence.”

Su Yuan’s eyes flickered: ”I sensed something earlier. It seems that Spirit Venerable Tantai and Fang Yu have an unusual relationship?”

Shen Die pondered for a moment, then cautiously glanced around before whispering to Su Yuan: ”It is said that many years ago, Spirit Venerable Tantai also left the mountain, and at that time, was likely a contemporary of Fang Yu...”

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly boomed like thunder directly in their seas of consciousness:

”Aren’t you leaving? Do you want me to personally throw you two down the mountain?!”

Su Yuan and Shen Die’s faces paled instantly, feeling dizzy.

When they turned around, they couldn’t even see Tantai Meng’s figure.

They dared not discuss further, hastily bowing respectfully towards the direction of the back mountain before quickly descending...

Leaving the Divine Thought Path, Su Yuan returned home.

All was well with his family,

with Wang Haiping, who had been promoted to Deputy Director of Qingye City, taking care of everything.

However, upon meeting Tang Shiyang, she immediately asked why Bing Tong hadn’t come...

Additionally, Su Yuan visited Wang Haiping in Qingye City.

Seeing that Su Yuan had already advanced to the Radiant Moon Level, Wang Haiping was both surprised and delighted.

Besides genuinely being happy for his junior brother, Wang Haiping knew well that as long as he took good care of Su Yuan’s family, his future would be bright!

After that, Su Yuan directly returned to Yan Court.

The Divine Thought Path journey had been fruitful, and [Instant Unlimited] became Su Yuan’s fourth skill after advancing to the Radiant Moon Level.

After advancing to the Radiant Moon Level, the skills Su Yuan embedded were as follows:

[Killing Life Salvation Technique], [Divine Prohibition], [Void Divine Intent], and the recently obtained [Instant Unlimited].

”With this, only one skill slot is left. It must be chosen carefully.”

Su Yuan nodded. Although he had just advanced to the Radiant Moon Level, the skill embedding had been quick, but overall, Su Yuan was very satisfied.

Two Legendary skills plus one that might become Myth-level, and the last Epic skill was powerful and works well with the Great Sun Burning Body Technique, a superior Buddhist secret technique.

Now, the skills in all aspects were quite well-rounded, and the biggest shortfall, the spiritual skill, had been filled.

For any further needs, he could supplement them with formations.

”Formations...”

Su Yuan’s thoughts moved, taking out the borrowed ”Heavenly Destiny God Transformation” from the Scripture Hall, and continued studying it...

”Boss, here’s your coffee.”

At that moment, Ashley walked over with a cup of coffee.

”Thanks...”

Su Yuan took the coffee and drank a sip while reading ”Heavenly Destiny God Transformation”.

But out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of something different.

Long, slender legs wrapped in sheer black stockings, leading down to black leather shoes, and upward to the absolute territory between the knees and a short skirt...

”Pfft... Cough, cough!”

Su Yuan spat out the coffee, even spilling it on the ground from the shock.

Had his reaction not been quick enough, the coffee might have spilled directly onto ”Heavenly Destiny God Transformation”.

”Here,” Ashley turned and handed Su Yuan a towel, then started cleaning the table.

Su Yuan took the towel, wiped his mouth, and looked at Ashley once more.

”Why are you dressed like this today?”

”I always dressed like this.”

Su Yuan was puzzled: ”Didn’t you usually wear pajamas?”

Ashley looked up at Su Yuan: ”You want me to wear pajamas?”

Su Yuan immediately denied it: ”No...”

Ashley, with a blank expression, took another towel and wiped the spilled coffee on the table: ”I mean before I joined the Shrine.”

”Oh, I see...” Su Yuan nodded in realization.

The first time he saw Ashley, she was wearing the Star Envoy uniform, and afterward, she mostly wore pajamas. He didn’t know what her original casual clothes looked like.

”What, you don’t approve?” Ashley grabbed another towel and carefully cleaned the table again.

”No, I’m just surprised to see it for the first time.” Su Yuan laughed as he reopened ”Heavenly Destiny God Transformation”, casually complimenting, ”It suits you well.”

Ashley paused slightly: ”Oh? Really.”

”Mhm...”

Su Yuan responded softly, already lost in his studies.

Seeing this, Ashley quietly brewed another cup of coffee for Su Yuan and placed it beside him before sitting not far away, reading a book herself.

From afar at the foot of Qingming Peak, Mo Fei looked longingly towards Su Yuan and Ashley, wanting to go over.

But he couldn’t read books or make coffee, which would only waste time and disturb his master...

”It’s best to focus on cultivation. If there’s a battle, the master will naturally take me along, yes!”

Thinking this, Mo Fei cheered up and continued cultivating...

To the northwest of Great Flame, in the command room of A-2 base, two people were seated facing each other.

One wore the uniform of Huo Luo Country while the other wore the uniform of Great Flame.

Judging by their shoulder insignias, both were Generals.

They were discussing something in low voices when suddenly the command room door was knocked, and a middle-aged man in a black White Tiger robe walked in.

This middle-aged man was slim, with black hair, but had two white eyebrows.

From the Sky Patrol Department, White Tiger Imperial Envoy Bai Chengyun.

”Chengyun, you’re finally here.” General Luo Cheng of Great Flame greeted.

On the other side, General Lin Zixu of Huo Luo Country also saluted: ”Imperial Envoy Bai.”

”Sorry for the wait.” Bai Chengyun bowed in return, then walked over to Luo Cheng and Lin Zixu and sat down.

Lin Zixu bluntly asked: ”What brings Imperial Envoy Bai here today?”

Luo Cheng also looked at Bai Chengyun, waiting for him to speak.

Today, Luo Cheng and Lin Zixu had come here after receiving word that Bai Chengyun had important intelligence to share.

Bai Chengyun got straight to the point: ”According to the latest intelligence, a Tiger Vein will birth here.”

”Really?!” Lin Zixu’s face lit up, ”It’s been two or three months since the last Tiger Vein birthed!”

Luo Cheng’s expression turned more serious.

Within Earth Tribulations, the spewing of Earth Qi and the evolution of Star Veins were continuous processes.

The first Tiger Vein had just formed when the Earth Qi gushed like a tide, resulting in several Tiger Veins emerging one after another.

In normal circumstances, it took at least a month for another Tiger Vein to form.

Luo Cheng asked, ”Old Bai, where is this Tiger Vein?”

Bai Chengyun flipped out a map, pointing to a remote northern forest: ”Here.”

”This...Youman Forest?” Lin Zixu frowned slightly.

Luo Cheng wasn’t completely familiar with the terrain in northern Huo Luo, and asked Lin Zixu: ”General Lin, is there a problem with this forest?”

Lin Zixu frowned and said, ”Youman Forest. Though it doesn’t harbor Burning Sun Level Star Beasts, it has many Radiant Moon Level Star Beasts.

If we want to breach this place, we’ll likely need to deploy numerous corps, which will probably alert the forces in the north...”

Bai Chengyun chuckled: ”No need for a corps assault. For this operation, we will send elite experts.”

Lin Zixu thought for a moment, then nodded: ”This will indeed be more covert, but we’ll need very powerful experts, and the risk is much higher than using corps for a frontal assault...”

Luo Cheng also rubbed his chin: ”If there are many Radiant Moon Star Beasts in Youman Forest, we might need to send in the Firehawk Guard and Sky Patrol Department experts.”

Bai Chengyun said: ”We will indeed send White Tiger Imperial’s experts, and also...we will ’expose’ this to the north.”

Luo Cheng was stunned: ”What? Old Bai, what do you mean?”

Lin Zixu was also confused. Sending experts was supposed to silently preempt the occupation of the Tiger Vein in Youman Forest, so why deliberately alert the north?

”Because our goal this time is not just the Tiger Vein...” A cold glint appeared in Bai Chengyun’s eyes, ”But also to ambush and kill the Dark Moon of the Sanction!”
