Chapter 788: Chapter 608 Sea Moon Ascension_2

If there could be a smooth way to travel to the Qingming Realm, or if there was a fixed entrance to the Qingming Realm, it would be much more convenient...

In that case, Ashley, Antonios, and even Ruan Ruan and Mo Fei would be able to enter and exit the Qingming Realm more freely.

To achieve this, Su Yuan had two potential directions in mind:

One was a Grandmaster-level formation for teleportation and transfer.

The other was to devour the Tiger Vein to help the Phoenix Vein in the Qingming Realm evolve, potentially gaining new abilities...

Not long after, Ashley and Antonios had both completed the embedding.

While Su Yuan was contemplating, Antonios suddenly thought of something.

”By the way, boss, there’s one more thing I didn’t have time to tell you earlier...”

Su Yuan snapped out of his thoughts and asked, ”What?”

Antonios’s expression turned serious as he said, ”We’ve slain many Star Beasts here, but we’ve also discovered an extremely strong Star Beast’s aura deep in the You Man Forest.

Although we didn’t go in to check, that aura was already beyond the Radiant Moon level. In my opinion... there’s a high probability that a Full Moon Star Beast is undergoing a breakthrough!”

Su Yuan’s expression immediately turned serious as he stared at Antonios, confirming, ”You said a Full Moon Star Beast is breaking through?”

”That’s right.” Antonios nodded solemnly.

Ruan Ruan also spoke up, ”It’s true, master. That creature’s aura is rising rapidly. It might succeed soon!”

Hearing this, Su Yuan’s face darkened.

A breakthrough for a Full Moon-level Star Beast, what did that mean?

It meant Burning Sun!

Unlike the Black Wilderness Mountain, where Star Power was scarce.

Although the You Man Forest was remote, it was located in a Spiritual Land. However, it was difficult to reach Burning Sun due to the thin Star Power.

Now, with the birth of the Tiger Vein in this Spiritual Land, it provided pure energy. It was possible that a Star Beast could use this to break through!

Antonios said, ”So, boss, if there’s nothing else here, it’s best for us to leave quickly.”

Su Yuan frowned, ”I’m afraid it’s not just a matter of leaving quickly, because we’ve already established the Tiger Level Pulse Stabilizing Pillar!”

Antonios was slightly taken aback, then immediately realized the reason Su Yuan was here was to seize the Tiger Vein.

At that moment, Su Yuan’s black card suddenly emitted an urgent pulse.

”Emergency signal, it seems something has also been discovered at the camp...”

Su Yuan narrowed his eyes and immediately left the Qingming Realm, opening the Space Gate to return to the temporary camp.

After a while, in the center of the camp, Shen Tu Yuan, Su Yuan, Yellow Lion Tiger, and others had all gathered.

”Emergency signal, what’s happening?” Yellow Lion Tiger asked in a deep voice, noticing the serious atmosphere.

Shen Tu Yuan said, ”I’m not sure either. We’ll know when everyone returns.”

Not long after, Clear Wind blew from afar, and Zhang Qianyi and Fang Li returned together, their expressions extremely serious.

Shen Tu Yuan asked, ”Fang Li, what’s the matter?”

Fang Li said in a grave tone, ”We found a Radiant Moon Star Beast in the ’Sea Moon Ascension’ state deep in the You Man Forest!”

”Sea Moon Ascension?!”

Shen Tu Yuan’s eyes narrowed, and Yellow Lion Tiger’s face changed.

Everyone, being at the Radiant Moon level, knew very well what Sea Moon Ascension meant.

The Full Moon rises from the sea and could turn into the morning sun at any time. This was Sea Moon Ascension, a state where the breakthrough was already halfway successful!

Shen Tu Yuan immediately ordered, ”Fang Li, contact Imperial Envoy Bai Chengyun and request reinforcements!”

”Yes!” Fang Li complied and went to the dedicated communicator to make the contact.

Everyone was heavy-hearted. The operation had been going smoothly, and even Gerard had been slain, but they hadn’t expected a Radiant Moon Star Beast to break through to Burning Sun!

If it were another unexpected event, even a Star Beast riot in the You Man Forest, the combined strength of everyone here would be enough to handle it.

But if that Star Beast broke through to Burning Sun, it would be a world-changing event. This group alone could never protect the Pulse Stabilizing Pillar from a Burning Sun Star Beast!

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Fu Shan said, ”Even if it’s already in Sea Moon Ascension, transforming into the morning sun is not easy, and it will take several days at the fastest.

By then, the Burning Sun experts from the base will have arrived, and we won’t fear that Star Beast.

If it breaks through more slowly, it might take up to a month from Sea Moon Ascension to the morning sun, by which time we would have successfully taken the Tiger Vein.”

However, Shen Tu Yuan, Su Yuan, Zhang Qianyi, and others still frowned tightly.

Firstly, the You Man Forest was not in the southern interior but leaned more towards the north.

Given the current situation, every distribution of Burning Sun-level combat power between the northern and southern war zones was constantly monitored by the opposing side.

Battles below this level could be ignored, but any movement of a Burning Sun-level combatant would trigger significant attention and corresponding action from the opponent.

If a Burning Sun expert were to suddenly move towards the You Man Forest, it would likely be detected.

Secondly, although the time for a Burning Sun breakthrough was uncertain, Sea Moon Ascension already had one foot in Burning Sun level, and it usually wouldn’t take long.

As there was no better solution, this was the reason Fu Shan said so.

After a while, Fang Li returned to inform everyone:

”General Luo Cheng from A-2 Base has already set out first thing, and we have been granted permission to abandon the Pulse Stabilizing Pillar and retreat if attacked by a Burning Sun Star Beast.

This is an uncontrollable factor and will not affect the evaluation of our task.

General Lin Zixu from Wusa Country has the same stance.”

Everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief at these words.

It was a passive situation, but there was nothing they could do in the face of a Burning Sun-level threat.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Tu Yuan said, ”Then keep a close watch on the situation in the depths of the You Man Forest and wait for reinforcements.”

Shen Tu Yuan then looked at Yellow Lion Tiger and Su Yuan: ”Major Huang and Envoy Su, let’s go deep and check the specifics.”

No one was surprised that Shen Tu Yuan called Su Yuan along, as Su Yuan’s strength had already been thoroughly recognized by everyone present.

”Alright.” Su Yuan and Yellow Lion Tiger agreed immediately.

Shen Tu Yuan instructed, ”Zhang Qianyi, lead us there. The others stay to guard the Pulse Stabilizing Pillar.”

”Yes!”

After making arrangements, Su Yuan and a few others followed Zhang Qianyi into the depth of the You Man Forest...

With Su Yuan’s Space Gate, the group moved quickly.

After a long journey, they arrived in a mountainous area where the trees towered high.

Zhang Qianyi pointed to the distance with a slight frown: ”It’s underground!”

Su Yuan and the others faintly sensed an aura coming from deep underground in the distance.

The aura was not clear, but its strength was undeniably above the Radiant Moon level!

Su Yuan expanded his All-Knowing Vision, looking down through the ground.

His vision was obscured, seeing only a blistering sphere like the sun!

This wasn’t real fire but Spirit Flame continuously released, compressed, and highly condensed during the Burning Sun breakthrough process, called the ”Sun Corona”!

The energy intensity of the Spirit Flame in the Sun Corona was several to dozens of times greater than the Star Power in the Star Core, capable of instantly vaporizing any Radiant Moon-level being that approached!

This was a self-protection method during the Burning Sun breakthrough, beyond the capability of the Radiant Moon-level to penetrate.

”It’s really about to break through...”

Silver light flashed in Su Yuan’s eyes as he looked at the massive fireball underground. The high concentration of energy in the Sun Corona made it impossible to see what kind of Star Beast was inside.

Next to him, Shen Tu Yuan gripped the hilt of his sword, taking a stance.

”Slash!”

White light flashed and a blade of unrivaled sharpness instantly cut into the ground, striking the massive fireball below.

However, the Spirit Flame on the Sun Corona burst forth, incinerating the blade light completely without leaving a trace!

Shen Tu Yuan raised an eyebrow: ”Judging by the strength of this Sun Corona, it truly can’t be breached.”

With just one strike, everyone knew that they couldn’t break through the Sun Corona even with their full strength.

Yellow Lion Tiger said gravely, ”In that case, we can only wait to see if General Luo Cheng can provide assistance.”

There was nothing else they could do. They didn’t know what kind of Star Beast was underground, whether it could break through, or when the breakthrough would happen...

All they could do was wait.
