Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1197: Chapter 976: Great Magician

The probing exchange between the two sides, though described at length, actually took place in just a moment.

But as soon as they took action, the battle had already begun!

In the rear, the black light flowing over Kira transformed into a form-fitting black robe. In the blink of an eye, he vanished into the void, leaving not a trace.

This kind of stealth technique is indeed quite similar to that of He Xianyin.

But to counter invisibility, there are also various methods.

Beside Su Yuan, Xiahou True Monarch raised his hand to form a seal, and murmured, "Hundred Woods Divine Assault."

The ground trembled, and intense green light surged. In an instant, hundreds of massive black-blue trees, requiring three people to encircle, burst forth!

Feeling the immense power on the black-blue trees, Kira, who was in stealth, had his eyes slightly narrowed. He immediately shifted to dodge and continued moving forward.

With flexible movement techniques, Kira easily evaded the attack of the Hundred Woods Divine Assault.

Meanwhile, Xiahou’s gaze slightly lowered, and he changed the seal in his hand: "Foundation of Hundred Woods, Thousand Branches Proliferation."

In that instant, a rich spiritual light flourished on the hundreds of black-blue trees. An infinite number of branches suddenly grew wildly and twisted together, enveloping the surroundings like a web!

Even though Kira’s stealth ability was strong, he ultimately couldn’t pass through obstacles like the Hermit Damia. At this moment, he had to flip his hand to retrieve a scythe and spin through the air, cutting all the black-blue branches into pieces.

However, doing so revealed his position.

Xiahou, seeing this, pointed with his left hand. Hundreds of thick, sturdy black-blue branches surged forward, like rolling waves, towards Kira!

Such a formidable offensive, how could a mere four-foot scythe block it!

Kira dispelled his invisibility, and with a thought, a chilling black aura radiated from his body. As his scythe swung, all the branches turned black and withered.

"The power of death, is it..."

Xiahou slightly raised his eyes to look at Kira, letting out a cold snort, while the misty green light lit up outside his body.

The numerous black-blue branches, affected by the power of death and continually withering, suddenly underwent a frenzied growth of plant cells at a hundredfold the usual speed.

The mass proliferation of plant cells caused the density of the black-blue branches to increase exponentially. Not only did they swell in size, but their surface also gained a black-blue sheen, looking as hard as metal to the naked eye!

Thus, the hundred or more black-blue branches just pushed back by Kira suddenly pressed down on him again, ready to engulf him within a few breaths.

"Such astounding power of ’growth’!"

Kira’s pupils constricted. Even though he had learned of Xiahou’s abilities from the Justice and Tower, experiencing it firsthand—the vast and inexhaustible vitality—was truly shocking...

Deserving of his title as the longest-serving Azure Dragon True Monarch in the Sky Patrol Department!

At this moment, not far away, Karen once again grabbed the Truth Cloak on his body. With a casual turn, it quickly enlarged, and a power of space enveloped Kira, who was besieged by hundreds of black-blue trees.

In the next moment, Karen re-donned the Truth Cloak, and Kira abruptly appeared beneath it in the distance.

Hundreds of black-blue branches in mid-air suddenly closed but struck empty air, with no trace of Kira to be found.

Xiahou slightly lifted his gaze, looking at Karen and the disengaged Kira.

"This space technique is more agile than anticipated, but..."

Xiahou’s eyes moved upward. High above the two, Su Yuan’s right hand released a Sky God Cannon, crashing down towards them!

Karen and Kira’s expressions slightly changed, and they were about to activate the spatial technique to leave again.

"Do you think the same move can be used two or three times?"

Silver light flowed in Su Yuan’s eyes. As a pure Space Star Card Master, he had already captured the spatial energy trajectory of Karen’s "Big Living Transformation."

With a stroke of his left hand, intense spatial silver lines blocked the path.

Karen, realizing the transfer failed, remained composed and unfazed, the wheel-like light in his eyes shone brightly.

In his twin pupils, the silver mark representing spatial abilities moved aside, replaced by a golden pupil imprint. Subsequently, a Golden Eye grew in the center of Karen’s forehead.

Simultaneously, Karen flipped his hand to retrieve a staff inlaid with a deep red gemstone.

"Dominate!"

Karen lifted his head, gazing at the Sky God Cannon descending towards them. A golden eye imprint immediately appeared on the cannon.

The Sky God Cannon slightly paused, then reversed its trajectory, shooting directly back up towards Su Yuan!

"Boom!"

In the next moment, the Sky God Cannon exploded, the roaring spatial energy completely blocked by the Infinite Barrier.

Su Yuan narrowed his eyes, looking at the familiar Golden Eye on Karen’s forehead.

"The Emperor’s Dominating Eye?"

This appearance, this power, isn’t it the ability of the Emperor Parker, who previously perished under the Infinite Void!

"It seems, like the Emperor’s Dominating Eye and the previous spatial power, this Magician Karen has indeed acquired the abilities of others."

Su Yuan pondered, typically, abilities that can copy others don’t surpass the original.

But right now, Karen directly controlled the Sky God Cannon, sending it flying back at himself!

It’s important to note, the Emperor could only dominate non-living things after True Form Release.

For it to be like this, either the Emperor held back before, or...

Su Yuan’s gaze fell on the staff with the deep red gemstone in Karen’s hand.

"Is that the Divine Staff, one of the four sealed holy artifacts? It certainly looks quite sinister."

The golden light surged over Karen’s Royal Golden Eye on his forehead as he prepared to unleash another Dominating Gaze.

This domination gaze is able to hit the target as long as it sees it, but the invisible infinite power cannot defend against it.

Just as Su Yuan was about to dodge, a mass of frenziedly growing black-blue tree branches blocked his way.

In the next moment, the golden pupil mark from Karen’s brow fell on one of the black-blue branches, and before it could make any move, it was directly crushed by the surrounding giant trees.

Su Yuan looked up and saw hundreds and thousands of black-blue tree branches charging towards Karen and his companion below under the control of the Xiahou True Monarch.

The power of the [Emperor] is indeed strong and strange, but its downside is also quite obvious - it must "see" the opponent.

Similar to Luo Bingtong’s All Swords Return to the Origin earlier, Xiahou True Monarch’s hundreds of black-blue tree branches could fairly easily handle the Royal Golden Eyes.

Moreover, Karen only has a single golden pupil at the moment!

Yet at this time, a rather peculiar smile appeared on Karen’s face.

"It’s not just our side’s abilities. Don’t forget, you guys have masters who died by my hand too..."

As he said this, the mark in Karen’s eyes transformed again, turning from a golden pupil into a red-striped firebird.

In the next moment, boundless red flames engulfed the sky!

"This is...!" Watching the red flames blazing into the sky, both Su Yuan and Xiahou’s pupils contracted.

The extremely hard hundreds of black-blue giant trees couldn’t withstand the domineering red flames and turned into large quantities of black ash.

In the blink of an eye, the surroundings had become a sea of fire!

"The power of Nangong True Monarch..."

Amidst the red light reflected by the flames, Su Yuan looked at Karen, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Xiahou waved his hand, directly cutting off all the black-blue branches behind him.

Nangong True Monarch’s red flames were not only extremely powerful, but they also burned through everything they touched.

"Nangong’s flames." Xiahou raised his eyelids to look at Karen, and his usually unaffected eyes now had a bit of cold light flickering.

Before the flames completely faded away, a flash of silver light flickered on Su Yuan, and he used Instant Teleportation to move to Karen’s side, slashing out with his sword.

Next to him, a flash of black light appeared, and Kira raised his scythe to block Su Yuan’s longsword.

As the sword and scythe collided, a strong force of death suddenly erupted from the scythe, spreading over Su Yuan’s sword-wielding right hand in an attempt to corrode it.

"Power of Death?"

Su Yuan laughed coldly, pulling out the Glazed Tianqing with his left hand, and as the green light turned, a strong vitality immediately surged out, dispelling the death qi in an instant.

"This sword..."

Kira’s expression slightly condensed, recalling the information about this "Vitality Sword" from the intelligence on Vermilion Bird Guardian Su Yuan.

Without giving Kira a chance to think, Su Yuan’s domineering body spiritual light appeared on him, and with a force from Heavenly God Descent, he sent Kira flying!

With nothing else in his way, Su Yuan appeared directly in front of Karen and slashed down with his sword!

Karen’s expression remained unchanged as he raised his staff to block.

"Clang!"

A crisp sound rang out, and the staff firmly blocked the demon saber.

All over Karen’s body, a sky-blue domineering body spiritual light flowed, unexpectedly also using Heavenly God Descent!

"Oh?"

Su Yuan was slightly surprised, as most Truth Knights are known for their outstanding abilities, but he didn’t expect Karen, as a Magician, to master an ultimate skill like Heavenly God Descent.

"You seem surprised..." Karen smiled, gazing at Su Yuan in front of him, "Among the 22 Knights of the Truth Secret Society, two were former Sun Knights.

One is the current [Sun] Phoenix, which you all already know.

As for the other one... that’s me!"

"Is that so..." Su Yuan understood in his heart.

Before the Earth Tribulation, the Great Flame and Qiguang stood on the north and south poles of the continent, and there wasn’t much interaction.

But as a pillar of superpower, the Patrol Station had some intelligence on the Qiguang Sun Knights, at least their names were known.

No wonder they could never identify the other Sun Knight who received the blessing. It turned out to be the Karen in front of them, who could change abilities and easily disguise.

At this time, the golden pupil at Karen’s brow was also ready.

Seeing this, Su Yuan’s figure flickered, and he instantly teleported away from the spot.

Karen’s strike missed, but he didn’t mind, as star power erupted around him, and a sky-blue five-star barrier suddenly appeared behind him.

"Now that the warm-up is over, let’s bring this performance to a climax!"

Karen laughed, and behind him in the five-star barrier, a red firebird, royal golden pupil, twisted space... each corner had a symbol representing an ability!

"Hundred Transformations, the great magician who practices the endless path!"

The barrier behind him suddenly disappeared, and when Karen closed and reopened his eyes, they had turned into a five-star barrier engraved with five different marks!

Previously, whichever ability was selected, that ability would be used.

But in this moment of True Form Release, he could simultaneously use the abilities he copied, and...

"Royal Hundred Eyes!"

Karen let out a low shout, and his entire body suddenly manifested a dense array of royal golden pupils.

Counting them carefully... there were an astonishing 50!
