Supreme Star Card Master-Chapter 64 - 59: Clearing the Cave_2
Two hours later, Su Yuan had completely recovered.
The reason for such a rapid recovery was, first, because he still had more than half of his original Star Power; second, the effect of his extremely high Star Power Talent also significantly aided in his recovery.
After waiting for a while, Wang Huai and Wu Yue both stood up as well.
Su Yuan asked, "How are you two doing?"
"Almost there," Wang Huai smiled, "Although we’re not completely recovered, we’re better for the most part."
Wu Yue patted his chest, saying, "Me too!"
Su Yuan smiled and said, "Alright, let’s go then."
Following Wang Huai and Wu Yue, the group hurried towards the depths of the Secret Realm. Before long, they arrived outside the cave Zhang Yang and the others had mentioned.
The three of them hid behind a rock wall, crouching and carefully observing inside through the cave entrance.
"This is it," Wu Yue swallowed nervously, whispering to Su Yuan.
Su Yuan looked up. The cave was large, and because the outside magma light couldn’t penetrate, it was quite dim inside, which explained why Wang Huai, Zhang Yang, and the others had earlier accidentally ventured in.
Upon closer inspection, the cave was teeming with all kinds of Undead Star Beasts, estimated to be around a hundred of them!
Aside from some low-stage Star Apprentice Star Beasts, there were several Bronze-level Star Beasts too!
Deep within the cave, something was emitting a faint green light, but it was unclear what it was due to the dense layers of Star Beasts obstructing the view.
"What is that inside?" Su Yuan asked in a low voice.
Wang Huai replied, "It seems to be coming from a green crystal on a black stone pillar. We saw it in the chaos earlier, but we couldn’t get past them..."
"One of our companions did try to rush over, but..." Wu Yue shook his head and sighed.
People die for wealth, birds for food.
It’s not uncommon for people to lose their reason over treasures.
Su Yuan nodded. Whatever it was, they’d know once they cleared out the cave.
Wang Huai turned to Su Yuan, "Do you have any plans?"
"Plans..." Su Yuan stood up and walked out from behind the rock wall. As Wang Huai and Wu Yue stared in shock, he walked directly to the cave entrance and spread his arms. Two balls of Azure Blue Flames rose in his palms.
"The plan is to charge straight in!"
As Su Yuan approached the entrance, all the Star Beasts in the cave lifted their eyes towards him.
Green, purple, red... various colors of eyes blinked in the darkness.
Immediately, the cave was filled with sudden turmoil!
Various strange and piercing sounds arose, and ghouls, Skull Snake Heads, Netherworld Snakes... a large number of Undead Star Beasts all charged towards Su Yuan at the entrance!
Seeing the Star Beasts rushing in with such momentum, Su Yuan’s expression didn’t change much. He clasped his hands together, and the Twin Phoenix Strike was ready.
Two streams of azure lightning tangled and shot out for a hundred meters, instantly illuminating the entire cavern and smashing through all the Star Beasts in a straight line!
With one strike, nearly twenty percent of them were obliterated!
"That was damn brutal!"
Wang Huai and Wu Yue were both shocked; they had expected some elaborate plan, but Su Yuan was so direct!
But with Su Yuan already making his move, the two exchanged glances, gritted their teeth, and charged in as well.
"Roar!!"

In the cave, a six-meter-tall Flesh Puppet saw Su Yuan’s actions and immediately opened its massive mouth. A green light ball rapidly formed in its mouth and then shot towards Su Yuan at high speed.
Green Skill, Rotting Beam!
Su Yuan’s eyes flashed, and he abruptly disappeared from his original position, narrowly dodging the extremely fast attack.
The next moment, hovering above the Flesh Puppet’s head, Su Yuan flicked the Dragon Armor Saber, and a layer of dense black light surged onto the blade.
Su Yuan’s gaze sharpened, and he descended with a slash at the top of the Flesh Puppet’s head!
"Slash!"
The black line quickly descended, slicing the Flesh Puppet from head to foot in an instant. The next moment, the four-meter-tall Flesh Puppet was split in two!!
"Boom!"
The body of the Flesh Puppet collapsed with a crash, and the surrounding Undead Star Beasts finally reacted, emitting various high-pitched and sharp cries as they surrounded him.
Su Yuan remained calm. Gray light swirled around him, and the Gravity Domain expanded from his body with a boom!
In an instant, all the Star Beasts within a radius of several dozen meters were firmly pinned in place, even the Double-winged Bats and Blind-eyed Mercenary Beasts in the air fell to the ground like beans hitting the floor!
"The hunt begins..."
Su Yuan activated the Wind Walking and began slaughtering with his long saber at high speed!
Wherever he went, except for a few Bronze Elite Star Beasts that could still struggle, all other Star Beasts were immobilized, like lambs to the slaughter, easily cut down by Su Yuan.
In an instant, limbs flew, and blood splattered—a complete massacre.
This was the absolute gap in quality!
Even with several times or dozens of times the numbers, it couldn’t be compensated for!
Unless they could exhaust all the Star Power in Su Yuan’s body.
But Su Yuan’s killing efficiency was too high. In just a few moments, more than twenty Star Beasts had already fallen under his blade, unable to withstand his onslaught at all!
At this moment, two Molten Rock Generals, blazing with fierce flames, seemed unaffected by the pressure. They charged forward under the Elemental Magnetism Pressure, their massive footsteps echoing in the cave, creating a formidable presence!
"Resistance to abnormal states, huh?"
Su Yuan stared at the two Molten Rock Generals. With a flick of his saber, a large amount of Star Power surged out, and the black light on the blade deepened significantly!
"Space Cut·Boundary Line!"
Su Yuan swung his long saber, and a several-meter-long black line abruptly slashed across the two Molten Rock Generals.
The orange flame in the Molten Rock Generals’ eyes flared, and their upper bodies were neatly sliced off, flying several meters due to inertia before rolling to Su Yuan’s feet, where he stomped on them, causing them to shatter!
Space Cut·Boundary Line!
A trait evolved after Perfect Space Cut, consuming more Star Power for a longer-range, more destructive cut that traverses space!
Su Yuan took a slight breath. After finishing off the two Molten Rock Generals, he continued to slice through the remaining Star Beasts in the cavern...
Time passed, and the cave gradually quieted down.
Wang Huai and Wu Yue panted heavily, their hearts pounding as they looked around at the numerous dead Undead Star Beasts scattered everywhere. An incredibly surreal feeling welled up inside them.
This certainly wasn’t their doing; the two of them had only managed to kill two Bronze-level Star Beasts and a dozen Star Apprentice Star Beasts.
As for the rest, including most of the Bronze Elites, they were all killed by Su Yuan!
The two looked up to see the young man calmly extracting Star Cores from the Star Beast corpses and storing them in his ring, his face expressionless as if such an astounding record was nothing to him!
"What a monster!"
Wang Huai and Wu Yue took a deep breath, suppressing their intense emotions, and started to collect the Star Cores from the Star Beasts they had killed.
After a while, the three of them had finished cleaning up and reached the innermost part of the cave, in front of the pillar emitting the faint green light.
The pillar was dark green with some crooked runes engraved on it, exuding a cold aura.
At the top, a fist-sized emerald-green crystal was embedded.
Wu Yue examined the crystal with anticipation, "Is this the reward for clearing the lair?"
Wang Huai said, "Whether it is or not, it’s Su Yuan’s. Don’t get any ideas!"
"Of course not!" Wu Yue crossed his arms and pouted, "I’m just curious."
Wang Huai smiled, knowing it was just a joke.
Actually, Wang Huai and Wu Yue were just fellow students from Qing Province Academy who didn’t know each other before.
But over the past two days of teaming up in the Molten Lava Cave, they had overcome many obstacles together, especially during their earlier siege by the Zombie Tyrannosaurus and other Undead Star Beasts, where they had shared life and death.
Life and death best reveal one’s true nature. They had come to understand and appreciate each other’s character, which was why they continued to stick together.
Su Yuan observed for a while. The crystal contained concentrated Star Power, somewhat similar to a Star Core.
Combined with the runed pillar, it seemed to be a simple device.
Su Yuan said to the two, "Better be safe. Step back a bit while I take it down."
"Okay, be careful."
Wang Huai and Wu Yue stepped back, Star Power flowing within them, ready to assist if needed.
Su Yuan reached out to take the emerald-green crystal. As soon as he touched it, he gained an understanding.
"This thing... it actually contains a Star Card?"
Su Yuan activated his Star Power, which flowed into the crystal. Amid the flashing light, the crystal decomposed into a Star Card emitting a vibrant green glow:
