Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1423: Chapter 1176: Repelling the Enemy

"Master!"

Hua Tiandu’s face changed suddenly, and at that moment of mental disturbance, several bright blue blades slashed down from the void behind, as a Demon King using Rapid Flow as a blade struck, driving Hua Tiandu into the ground.

The other True Yang Sect experts were also visibly shocked, attempting to step forward to help, yet were uniformly blocked by the Demon Kings from various sides.

Seeing Bai Niao once again raise his sword toward the seemingly lifeless Master Yunhua, Su Yuan’s figure flickered and he appeared at Bai Niao’s side, delivering a palm strike.

The palm interwove with three colors: wind, fire, and thunder. The Divine Prohibition Chain was about to bind Bai Niao’s body, but it was frozen by the domineering Freezing Law as soon as it spread slightly.

Subsequently, Bai Niao’s spirit light flashed, shattering the Divine Prohibition Chain in one go!

"You truly are troublesome."

Su Yuan raised his eyebrow. He had bound countless opponents with the Divine Prohibition, but this was the first time it failed.

Not only did the Divine Prohibition fail, a strong Freezing Power then followed along his arm, spreading towards Su Yuan’s body.

To freeze space from a distance is one thing, but direct contact? This sort of Freezing Power is brutally unsurpassed!

"You really dare to court death."

Bai Niao let out a cold laugh, taking advantage of Su Yuan’s frozen left hand, reversing his sword to slash at Su Yuan.

"Evil Spirit Entanglement!"

Surging Undead Evil Fire instantly wrapped around Su Yuan’s body, slightly hindering the rapid spread of the Freezing Power.

Su Yuan held his sword to block Bai Niao’s slash, then with a thought, severed his frozen left arm and retreated, the intense vitality of Glazed Tianqing unfurled, instantly restoring his left arm.

"Rather decisive..." Bai Niao spoke coldly, her icy beautiful eyes glancing at Su Yuan. "However, your strongest Instant Teleportation is useless against me, you can’t possibly be my match."

"Oath of Returning Ruins!"

Facing such a formidable enemy, Su Yuan dared not be negligent, immediately unfolding the Oath of Returning Ruins, as Divine Wind howled, the Space Law within his body climbed all the way to the Sixth Stage, then he gripped his longsword and charged forward!

Sword light burst forth, Frost dazzling, the horizon almost imperceptible against the two figures, only Space Power and Freezing Power violently clashing, the aftermath alone incessantly tearing open small spatial fissures.

Both their swordsmanship had reached the Extraordinary Realm, without a single flaw.

If Su Yuan’s Void Divine Intent were still there, he wouldn’t fear such close combat with his infinite Divine Break Sword Light.

But now, with Divine Intent exhausted and the Sword Seal dormant, facing Bai Niao proved slightly strenuous.

Bai Niao, as an Eighth Stage Demon King, had the advantage of realm, each collision imposing slight suppression on Su Yuan, which could eventually be converted into a decisive advantage if accumulated too much!

"Bird’s Sword·Dream Flower Three Thousand Branches."

Bai Niao slashed out with a sword, a flash of cold light, countless ice branches burst forth in the void sealing Su Yuan inside.

With a "clank," the ice crystal shattered.

Su Yuan stood holding his sword in the void, glancing at the wounds pierced by the ice branches on his body, even the healing speed of Glazed Tianqing had greatly slowed, it might be difficult to recover for a while.

Bai Niao, seeing that Su Yuan was only slightly injured, raised her delicate eyebrow: "Space Law, truly troublesome."

If it had been an ordinary Mid-tier King, this move, Dream Flower Three Thousand Branches, would have been enough to decide the outcome.

But to prevent Su Yuan’s Instant Teleportation, freezing the surrounding void, it caused her power to be slightly divided.

The Grey Realm has existed for countless years, with countless Demon Beasts within, also not lacking High Stage King Levels, Bai Niao’s ability to stand out from among High Stage King Levels to become the Water Soldier Guard Deputy Commander was through sheer strength.

There is no hierarchy of laws, all paths could lead to the Emperor Level.

But it has also been proven over countless years that as the Power of Laws increases, some laws have higher limits in combat...

The Ten Ultimate Laws, that’s how they came to be!

"If this person grows to a high stage, it’ll truly be a huge hidden danger... Ultimate Laws are not easy to handle."

Looking at Su Yuan ahead, an increasingly strong killing intent rose in Bai Niao’s heart, as she gripped the Sea God Sword ready to strike again.

And at this moment, in Bai Niao’s pure white eyes suddenly appeared beautiful flecks of azure light.

"Lord Chenyue?"

Bai Niao stopped her form, holding her longsword.

Only to see reflected in her vision, the handsome figure of Chenyue appear.

"Come over to my side, Bai Niao." Chenyue spoke calmly.

Bai Niao’s cold eyes showed a few traces of yearning, without any hesitation she respectfully responded: "Yes, my lord!"

In the air, Su Yuan also sensed Bai Niao’s abnormal state.

And soon, Bai Niao returned to normal, her icy eyes scanned around before finally falling on Su Yuan.

"Silver-haired, silver-eyed human, consider yourself lucky..."

In the field, the remaining Demon Kings, including Sea Eye, also seemed to feel something, simultaneously breaking free from the battle circle and flying out.

Even the remaining half of the Demon Beasts, gathered together, transformed into a black cloud and flew up.

Seeing this, Xu Hong and the others immediately reacted.

"They’re trying to leave!"

"Don’t let them leave so easily!"

Firstly, the enemy’s sudden retreat definitely disrupted their plans.

Secondly, everyone indeed had killing intent rise to the forefront, and now with the gradually occupying advantage, naturally, they wanted to completely eliminate these demon beasts to avenge their many fellow sect members!

For a moment, Xu Hong, Liu Zhenyan, Ma Liang, Hua Tiandu, Ba Shu... everyone unleashed their own skills, striking towards the air.

Bai Niao’s eyes flashed with cold glints, raising a hand and sweeping it in the void: "Ice River Ten Thousand Miles!"

Pure white brilliance instantly illuminated the entire sky, magic swords, fierce flames, thunder... all the attacks launched by the crowd were frozen in an instant between both sides, unable to advance even an inch!

Su Yuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, such solid defense undoubtedly was no less than his own Hundred Flowers Silver Tree.

Bai Niao coldly glanced at everyone once more, then swiftly disappeared into the horizon with less than half of the demon crowd.

"The enemy... ran away!"

"Did we survive?"

"That’s great, senior brother!"

Watching the remnants of the demon army retreat, all the cultivators in the sky and on the ground still had a somewhat dazed look in their eyes, but once they came back to their senses, everyone was ecstatic beyond belief.

Initially, they all thought it would be impossible to avoid death, that they would be buried on Red Sun Cliff, yet now, instead, the opponent had suffered losses over half and fled in disorder!

With spirits relaxed, one by one the exhausted cultivators could no longer hold on, they sat down cross-legged to recover, and more than a few even fainted on the spot.

Xu Hong and other True Yang sect King Level members also appeared pale, forcing themselves until now, their condition had already deteriorated to the extreme.

The most serious was still Master Yunhua who had been struck by Bai Niao’s sword, now lying on the ground, life or death unknown!

"Master!"

"Senior Brother!"

The True Yang sect group immediately arrived on the ground, and within this short moment, Master Yunhua’s body had already seemed to turn into a block of ice, losing consciousness.

However, everyone could see that eight faint firelights inside Master Yunhua were still desperately fighting against the intrusion of freezing power on his origin.

"The nine suns within senior brother’s chest protect by themselves, that’s great!"

The eyes of the crowd brightened with joy, encircling Master Yunhua, sitting down, gathering large amounts of the same origin True Yang Qi and channeling it into Master Yunhua’s body to provide energy to the eight True Yangs.

Su Yuan also drew Glazed Tianqing and inserted it into Master Yunhua’s chest, the rich wood element vitality not only provided fuel but also gradually woke Master Yunhua from his consciousness.

In just a moment, the eight clusters of True Yang flames on Master Yunhua flared brighter, burning away the remaining freezing laws.

At this moment, though Master Yunhua’s face was pale and breath weak, he had completely shaken off danger, simply needing good recovery for a period of time.

Master Yunhua, supported by Hua Tiandu, slowly stood up, his divine thought swept over and immediately comprehended the present situation.

"This time, thank you, Royal Envoy!" Master Yunhua suddenly folded his hands in gratitude and solemnly bowed to Su Yuan, "If it weren’t for fellow Daoist coming from afar wielding the sword to assist, us True Yang sect members would surely be extinct on Red Sun Cliff!"

Xu Hong, Qiu Yeqing, and other members of the True Yang sect all showed a change in expression, not expecting Master Yunhua to perform such a grand gesture to Su Yuan, a junior, but at this moment there was no need to think too much, up and down the True Yang sect, thousands of disciples followed Master Yunhua’s lead in performing the salute.

In fact, Xu Hong and others could not perceive the pressure on Master Yunhua.

Now with the Upper Emperor missing and the sect leader fallen, as the Left Protector, Master Yunhua naturally bore the heavy responsibility of embracing all True Yang sect disciples!

If not for Su Yuan’s timely arrival, facing fourteen Demon Kings and tens of thousands of Demon army, they who were bitterly holding on could almost be said to be in a state of certain death.

If he fell, so be it, but the disciples of True Yang sect might all die as well!

Su Yuan immediately stepped forward to support Master Yunhua: "Master’s words are too serious, jointly resisting the Grey Realm is the situation now, we Blue Sea Star people ought to help one another."

"Ah..." Master Yunhua shook his head and sighed, "Great Flame Country fellow Daoists are noble, it’s us who were overly optimistic and shortsighted!"

Master Yunhua looked around at Xu Hong and others, all with low spirits, and the True Yang disciples behind had only two to three thousand remaining, with all injured.

And this was considered lucky!

Themselves relying on Red Dragon Mountain’s True Sun Fire could sustain till now, while scattered fleeing sect members feared worst fate yet.

If they had allied early with the Divine Sect and East Continent, perhaps the True Yang sect wouldn’t be in this state.

If this was known earlier, why wait until now...

Su Yuan said, "Master Yunhua’s words are too serious, even if we ally now, it’s not too late, as long as you all are here, the True Yang sect will eventually rise to glory again."

Master Yunhua nodded in agreement: "Rest assured, Royal Envoy, I will thoroughly inform the Upper Emperor of today’s matters!"

"That’s very good."

Su Yuan knew that the True Yang sect should be able to form a unified alliance now.

Previously isolated by the Absolute Heaven Sword from above and below, with countless demon beasts invading the Southern Continent, now more than ever, innumerable sects are destroyed, nine out of ten gone, even the True Yang sect and other ten great sects can’t hold mountain gates.

After this ordeal, the sects of the Southern Continent should comprehend the might, cunningness, and aggression of the Grey Realm!

In this situation, uniting each sect has become much easier, only... who’s to know how much remaining power can the Southern Continent preserve after this occasion?

Just as Su Yuan was pondering, the temperatures in the field suddenly rose.

Not far away, from the tranquil Sword Sun Pool abruptly shot forth myriad dazzling golden lights, and a round golden sun emerged slowly from Sword Sun Pool!
