Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 485: Chapter 403: Subdue_2 Chapter 485: Chapter 403: Subdue_2 “Guardian Yan, really not going? He just killed some Shining Star Beasts. It shouldn’t be difficult for us.”

“We can’t go. That person is probably much stronger than we expected…” The middle-aged man in the green robe shook his head. Then his expression suddenly changed, and he said in a deep voice, “Let’s go. That person has already noticed us. It will be difficult to leave if we don’t go now!”

After saying this, the middle-aged man in the green robe hurriedly left the place with the two others.

“At least they have some sense…” In Su Yuan’s eyes, silver light flickered. He withdrew his gaze from where the three people had been.

As time passed, the yellow airflow formed by the Star Veins was continuously being drawn away by the Pulse Drawing Bead, occasionally forming miniature wolf shapes within the bead.

“So it really is a ‘Wolf’ Vein…”

Su Yuan was quite surprised. He had thought it was just a random name, but it turned out there was a basis for the title.

After a while, the Sea and Sky Realm dissipated.

All the Star Beasts that had been present were slain, and the corpses were temporarily collected by the Demon Soul.

Meanwhile, Ruan Ruan’s face was slightly pale. Not only had using her Star Power consumed a lot, but she also suffered a backlash because her clone was shattered. At this moment, she took out a pile of Star Stones to replenish her Star Power.

As for the Ink Qilin, its whole body was bloodied with knife wounds and burn marks, looking extremely pitiful. It was tightly bound by eight water tentacles, making movement impossible.

It couldn’t move, and even its Star Power was continuously being devoured and absorbed by Ruan Ruan through the water tentacles.

“Roar, roar!”

Watching Su Yuan and the Pulse Drawing Bead in the sky extracting the Star Veins, the Ink Qilin roared furiously.

Seeing this, Ruan Ruan waved a hand and directly stuffed a water tentacle into its mouth.

Time ticked by, and after a few more hours, the last wisp of Star Vein airflow was finally drawn into the Pulse Drawing Bead.

In an instant, the Star Power around the Five Mountains visibly dissipated and faded. The once majestic and splendid scene became somewhat desolate and bleak.

The yellow light within the Pulse Drawing Bead was extremely bright, and the barrier started to retract.

Su Yuan, however, remained motionless. His eyes shone brilliantly as he continuously pondered over the Vein Extraction Barrier.

“As expected, this won’t work…”

He was merely a Fourth Level Master, just watching the operation of the Vein Extraction Barrier made it difficult to replicate it. He didn’t know if reaching the Fifth Level or becoming a Grandmaster would work…

“Congratulations, Master, you successfully captured a Wolf Vein!” Ruan Ruan said with a smile.

After devouring all the Star Power within the Ink Qilin, Ruan Ruan’s Star Power had recovered a lot.

Su Yuan smiled and nodded. He then led everyone back to the ground below and looked at the Ink Qilin, who was bound and feeling hopeless.

“Let him speak.”

Su Yuan commanded, flipping his hand to take out a talisman.

This was the Spirit Communication Talisman. Even if there was a language barrier, one could understand the meaning conveyed through it.

The Ink Qilin was able to speak, and it roared intensely at Su Yuan.

“Release me, fight to the death!”

“You took the Star Veins, you deserve to die!”

“I will kill you!”

“…”

Numerous messages came through immediately, nothing but struggle, rage, and unwillingness.

After all, occupying this Wolf Vein, their leader still had a good chance to directly break through to the Radiant Moon level in the future.

“A fight to the death, huh?” Su Yuan chuckled softly. “If you want to die, I’ll make it happen.”

He ordered Ruan Ruan to release the Ink Qilin.

The Ink Qilin gathered what little Star Power remained in its body, its black patterns glowing. With a roar, it charged directly at Su Yuan.

Su Yuan didn’t dodge. He raised his fist and punched out!

With the Great Breath technique and the passive Star Dominator ability, who feared a physical fistfight without using Star Power?

“Boom!”

With a muffled sound, the heavily injured Ink Qilin was sent flying several steps, its body bursting with a mist of blood. It looked at Su Yuan in shock.

The starlight on Su Yuan’s body lightly trembled, and he also took half a step back.

This Ink Qilin’s combat power was indeed formidable. Even heavily injured, it could still push him back…

The Power of Soul of the same species of Star Beast was not necessarily identical. This particular Ink Qilin seemed capable of boosting instantaneous power.

It was due to this sudden surge of strength that it had broken through the Broken Space earlier.

“Roar, roar!!”

The Ink Qilin roared repeatedly. After being knocked back, it charged at Su Yuan again, fearlessly.

Su Yuan wasn’t going to pamper it. He punched it away again.

“Boom!”

“Roar!”

“Boom!”

“Roar!”

“Boom!”

“Roar, roar!… ”

“Boom!!”

“…”

After several such rounds, the Ink Qilin was already as limp as a rag, barely able to stand.

Su Yuan walked up to it and said, “Aren’t you just upset that we drew the Wolf Vein, cutting off your path to the Upper Realm?”

“Roar…” The Ink Qilin let out a feeble roar.

Su Yuan looked down at the Ink Qilin and said calmly, “In this New Dust Realm, even if the Wolf Vein is born, at best, you would grow to the Radiant Moon level.

I will give you a chance. Follow me out of here to a higher stage world.

There, not only can you reach the Radiant Moon level, but you might also ascend to the Burning Sun level, even surpassing it, as long as you have the ability.”

Even the New Dust Realm, with the Blue Sea Star’s Earth Tribulation, only sped up the growth of Earth Qi. But to truly grow to the Burning Sun level would take countless tens of thousands of years.

Although the New Dust Realm might indeed produce a Tiger Vein this time, it wouldn’t be many, perhaps just one.

It could support only a few, maybe a dozen, Burning Sun level beings, and competition would be fierce.

“Roar, roar…”

Hearing of an even higher realm, the Ink Qilin pondered for a moment, and the anger in its eyes gradually faded, replaced by longing.

Even though Star Beasts lived much longer than humans, without breaking through to the Radiant Moon level, in a thousand years or so, no matter how talented and extraordinary, a beast wouldn’t escape turning to dust.

For countless years, many Star Beasts in the New Dust Realm tried to break through space cracks to find pathways to other worlds to surpass the Shining Star Limit.

The Ink Qilin didn’t know if those predecessors succeeded. Most of them died shortly after entering space cracks.

The Ink Qilin wasn’t afraid of death, at least not yet. It was only 300 years old and, as a Qilin species, had several hundred years of lifespan left.

But it feared being trapped in this current state for those hundreds of years, unable to reach the Upper Realm!

With its high talent and potential, it had reached the limit, seeing the path ahead but unable to advance due to worldly constraints!

Originally, the emergence of a Wolf Vein was an opportunity, but it was snatched away by the person before it.

But the opponent had beaten it fair and square, and even provided an alternate route…

“Follow me, or I will kill you right here.”

Seeing the Ink Qilin silent for a long time, Su Yuan didn’t want to waste words. Agree or die; he had no shortage of Shining Star level fighters.

“Roar, roar…!”

At this, the Ink Qilin suddenly let out a low cry, crouching down and lowering its head in submission.

“Good.” Su Yuan nodded.

“Whimper!… Squeak, squeak!” Ruan Ruan crossed her arms, pouting slightly, seemingly unhappy.

To Ruan Ruan, she was the sole favorite of her master, and now another Beast might join, which made her feel “jealous.”

Understanding Ruan Ruan’s thoughts, Su Yuan chuckled and then took out a contract book, placing it in front of him.

“Sign it.” Su Yuan told the Ink Qilin.

The Ink Qilin, unsure initially, probed with its Spirit and quickly understood it was a one-way servitude contract.

A servant, huh…

Though deeply humiliating, thinking of the higher realms, the Ink Qilin hesitated briefly and then signed with Star Power.

In an instant, a bond was formed.

Aside from Antonios’s contract, Su Yuan now had another servitude contract, allowing him to control the Ink Qilin’s life and death with just a thought.

Su Yuan nodded slightly. He didn’t intend for the Ink Qilin to be his Beast.

Su Yuan had high standards. Ruan Ruan was the reincarnation of the Demon Emperor, which was acceptable; even the Ink Qilin wasn’t qualified to be his Beast.

He spared the Ink Qilin as a strong fighter, not wanting to handle every matter personally.

The Ink Qilin was a rare species with immense potential, and after accumulating for years at the Shining Star level, it could quickly reach the Radiant Moon level after joining Su Yuan on Blue Sea Star. That was the only reason Su Yuan decided to subdue it.
