Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1187: Chapter 966: Encounter

In the distance, many Qiguang Knights battling the Star Beasts turned their heads to see this scene, all with shocked expressions.

”This...?! Lord Herman was also killed!”

”How could it be?!”

”Su Yuan of the Vermilion Bird Imperial has also released his True Form!”

”...”

The numerous Qiguang Knights were horrified, as both Pla and Herman had been killed one after the other, leaving everyone with no fighting spirit!

Ignas immediately ordered, ”Everyone, retreat!”

In an instant, many knights withdrew from the battle circle.

”Ignas, what about the Dragon Vein?” someone asked.

Ignas said, ”Don’t worry about it, move, disperse!”

Considering Su Yuan’s terrifying Instant Teleportation, running together would mean they wouldn’t even have a chance to escape, so Ignas immediately instructed everyone to spread out and flee.

As for returning to the Golden Light Barrier...

Ignas did not think that the barrier could hold off that monster-like enemy for long!

And with a flash of Silver Light, Su Yuan once again flew high into the sky.

Watching the Qiguang warriors and numerous Star Beasts scatter and escape, Su Yuan’s eyes were indifferent, and with a flick of his ten fingers, an exquisite birdcage had already appeared.

”Silver Cage!”

Su Yuan clasped his hands together, and the Silver Dragon instantly disappeared from his hands.

At the same time, from all directions, huge silver rings suddenly appeared, like a woven birdcage covering all the knights and Star Beasts!

”What is this?!”

”Can’t get out! It’s his Space Power!”

”Holy Light Cross Slash!”

”Iron-Slicing Heavy Sword!”

”...”

The Qiguang Knights took action one after another, launching attacks continuously against the Silver Cage.

The Purple Gold Titan, the remaining dragons, and other High-Level Star Beasts also unleashed their means, frantically attacking the Silver Cage.

However, let alone whether it could cause damage, these attacks simply couldn’t touch the Silver Cage at all!

Su Yuan stood mid-air, with a Blessed Release in action, he casually slashed with his sword, able to cut Qiguang Knights and Star Beasts across Space.

The numerous Burning Sun Knights and Star Beasts were unable to resist such attacks, and limbs were flying, blood spraying everywhere, with many Burning Sun Star Beasts being slaughtered like lambs to the slaughter!

”Roar!”

The Storm Dragon and two other Star Beasts were the first to soar, rushing towards Su Yuan.

Su Yuan raised his hand and slashed several times continuously, and before the Storm Dragon and other Star Beasts could get close, they were cut into pieces by the sword light!

Beside the Dragon Vein, the sword light flickered, flesh and blood flew, and the screams of humans and beasts resounded...!

After a long time, Su Yuan stopped swinging his sword.

With a ”bang,” the Purple Gold Titan fell, smashing into two pieces on the ground!

Thus, the ground was full of blood, with only Su Yuan left alive.

Su Yuan looked below, closing and opening his eyes to undo the True Form Release.

With a wave of his hand releasing Ruan Ruan to clear the scene, Su Yuan then caressed the Demon Saber in his hand.

The Demon saber was shrouded in Blood Light, visibly revived a bit from slaying the dragons, the Titans, and many other high-level Star Beasts.

”If I could slaughter more Burning Sun Star Beasts, this Demon Saber could recover even sooner than expected...”

”Master, it’s done!”

Before long, Ruan Ruan handed over a large pile of Star Cores, including those of the Molten Lava Burst Dragon and the Purple Gold Titan, to Su Yuan.

”Ruan Ruan, just devour them all,” Su Yuan laughed.

”Piji?” Ruan Ruan’s eyes lit up with joy, ”Thank you, Master!”

Ruan Ruan gulped down all the Star Cores, and with the Devouring Law fully operating, the vast energy was wildly absorbed, and the Star Power Fluctuation on Ruan Ruan’s body visibly increased...!

Su Yuan, putting the now tight-eyed Ruan Ruan back into the Guardian Beast Space, thought that these many Burning Sun Star Cores would let the Devouring Law accumulate quite a bit for Ruan Ruan!

Afterward, Su Yuan raised his head, looking at the Dragon Vein about to be born in the distance.

The Earth Qi gathered, the Star Power surged, and clearly, it wouldn’t be long before it formed!

”Dragon Vein...”

Su Yuan’s eyes held some yearning, after all, this was a Dragon Vein...

With a flash of Silver Light on his body, Su Yuan easily entered the Golden Light Barrier with an Instant Teleportation.

Feeling the surging Earth Qi, Su Yuan murmured, ”Qingming Descent!”

Silver Light floated around Su Yuan, and the Qingming Realm’s phantom descended on the spot.

”Clang!”

Accompanied by a Phoenix cry, the Phoenix Vein also flew out.

However, Su Yuan did not intend to target this Dragon Vein.

Not to mention, this Dragon Vein had not fully birthed, and devouring a Dragon Vein would surely take considerable time!

”Indeed, now I can devour it!” With the Phoenix Vein’s feedback, Su Yuan’s eyes brightened.

During the time at the Southern Continent, he didn’t bring the Qingming Realm.

And in the Mediterranean, he had attempted it before, but at that time, the Phoenix Vein was unable to devour the Earth Qi of the Dragon Vein.

But at this moment...

With the release of his true form, the power of the soul increased further, and the Phoenix vein clearly indicated that it could devour the Dragon vein!

As long as it can devour, that’s good!

Taking another look, Su Yuan took a deep breath and decisively withdrew his gaze.

We’re still behind enemy lines, and the unexpected killing of the Truth Knight means things could turn bad if the enemy has ways to investigate the situation~

Killing two is already profitable; even though Su Yuan’s strength has greatly increased, it’s not to the point where he can remain at the entrance of Qiguang and kill without leaving quickly.

There’s no need to take this risk.

Su Yuan raised his hand to form a seal and directly activated the Transmission Decree, returning to the icy and snowy land from the beginning.

Then, a flick of a finger tore open a space rift, stepping back into the Grey Realm...

Returning to the Grey Realm, Su Yuan’s body flashed with silver light as he retraced his steps.

Passing through the chaotic space currents, Su Yuan returned to the Earth Cave.

However, just as he emerged, Su Yuan suddenly sensed something and instantly teleported away from his original location.

The next moment, a blindingly fast white light shot through the spot where Su Yuan appeared, instantly penetrating the stone walls of the Earth Cave for several thousand meters!

Su Yuan reappeared nearby, yet before he could catch his breath, silver lights flashed all around, and a large web of silver lines that cut through space rushed towards him from all directions—a trap clearly set in advance!

”Infinite!”

Silver light flowed in Su Yuan’s eyes, and the Infinite Power expanded, instantly separating the surrounding silver lines. Another burst of expansion shattered the numerous surrounding silver lines on the spot!

This kind of method needed no speculation from Su Yuan about who it was.

”Come out, Ba Shu.” Su Yuan raised his head to look ahead.

”Hehehe, Su Yuan, your intuition is indeed sharp...”

Accompanied by a silver-bell-like laugh, the space ahead twisted slightly, and a beautiful woman wearing a golden crown and a ceremonial gown manifested in front of them.

It was the Grey Realm Demon Beast—Ba Shu, with whom Su Yuan had crossed paths before!

”I greet you, Su Yuan.” Ba Shu smiled and curtsied slightly.

Su Yuan studied Ba Shu and then looked to the side.

For not only was Ba Shu present, but also a large, burly man with red hair and thick eyebrows.

This was none other than Basen, one of the King’s Ten Weapon Masters from the Imperial Court who’d encountered Nangong Li earlier!

Basen seemed surprised, ”Ba Shu, you know this person?”

Ba Shu chuckled, ”Of course... The last time we met, Su Yuan gave me an unprecedented joy~”

At this, Basen twitched his mouth, as everyone who previously provided Ba Shu ”joy” had been cut into countless pieces by space lines...

Hopefully, this crazy woman wouldn’t target him!

However, Basen soon noticed Su Yuan’s Red Bright Vermilion Bird Robe and pondered while stroking his chin, ”These clothes... I seem to remember someone else wearing them before.”

Su Yuan’s eyes moved slightly, ”Nangong True Monarch?”

”That would be it,” Basen nodded, then asked, ”Where is he?”

”He has fallen.”

”Oh?” Basen frowned slightly, ”Oh? Such a practitioner has already fallen, that’s indeed surprising...”

Basen sized up Su Yuan, his mouth curling, ”Since you have taken his place, I wonder... Do you have the strength?”

Upon hearing this, Ba Shu’s eyes shifted.

And a torrent of green energy erupted from Basen, charging toward Su Yuan like a roaring war chariot!

Su Yuan remained calm, silver light flashing in his eyes as he deployed the Infinite Barrier.

”Boom!” A dull thud sounded, Basen’s punch landed, but it stopped just three steps away from Su Yuan, blocked by the Infinite Power.

However... although Basen did not hit Su Yuan, the green energy on his fist still exploded powerfully in the air, with amazing force!

Excitement gleamed in Basen’s eyes, ”The space power is entirely different from Ba Shu’s... It seems more unique!”

As soon as the word ”unique” was spoken, Basen’s skin seemed to flush and the raging green energy turned purple.

”Boom!”

Instantly, an incredibly intense pressure emanated from Basen, causing even the hard, black stone walls of the surrounding Earth Cave to crack and break under such stress!

Basen suddenly stepped forward two more steps, compressing the Infinite Barrier until it caved in, reducing the distance between him and Su Yuan to less than half a meter!

”This is impressive, such powerful space power; being so close yet even I cannot cross it!” Excitement deepened in Basen’s eyes.

Afterward, Basen flipped his hand, and a Black Stone Long Saber appeared.

The saber’s black light flowed, slashing down, finally tearing through the Infinite Barrier!

”Clang!”

As the Infinite Barrier broke, Su Yuan drew his Demon Saber, resisting the Black Stone Long Saber.

Basen was surprised, ”Oh? Such strength... hmm?”

Before Basen could finish, a domineering body spiritual light abruptly expanded from Su Yuan, unleashing powerful strength that forced Basen back.

”Heavenly God Descent?” Basen looked surprised, reassessing Su Yuan, ”I’ve rarely seen a human comprehend Heavenly God Descent!”

Ba Shu also showed a hint of surprise, licking her lips, ”No wonder you’re Su Yuan, you truly are formidable...”

Su Yuan withdrew his gaze from Basen, turning to Ba Shu, ”Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you for appearing again?”

Ba Shu smiled, ”I showed you the way and even saved your people; you wouldn’t be so heartless, right?”

Su Yuan’s eyes moved subtly.

Regarding Ba Shu’s prior assistance to He Zheng, He Zheng had later approached Su Yuan to explain it.

Now, with Ba Shu’s guiding and saving efforts, she indeed had no debt left towards Su Yuan.
