Supreme Star Card Master-Chapter 307 - 251 Heat Manipulation

Chapter 307: Chapter 251 Heat Manipulation

In the underground cave, a three-tailed fox with golden patterns on its body speedily advanced towards the deeper part after shaking off the other star beasts that had followed it in. Judging by its behavior, it seemed to have no intention of stopping for cultivation.

After a while, the three-tailed fox passed through an area filled with high concentrations of ash energy, entering a clean and bright zone that was, however, populated with star beasts transformed from the ash tide.

The three-tailed fox closed its eyes. Moments later, when it reopened them, a dazzling firelight, capable of melting metal, gleamed in its golden eyes.

After observing in every direction for a moment, the three-tailed golden fox transformed into a streak of firelight and leaped away.

Despite the fact that the area was chaotic with ash star beasts of various strengths running around, the three-tailed fox’s golden flame eyes seemed capable of seeing through the movements of these ash aggregations. Each time a discovery loomed, it could evade just in time.

Blue skill, Cave Bright Fire Eyes!

The lower pupil skill of the epic pupil technique Eyes of Golden Flame; it could see through most disguises and keenly observe the changes in the aura of external objects.

With the help of Cave Bright Fire Eyes, the three-tailed fox could even anticipate the movements of ash aggregations through the stone walls of the cave.

Judging by the three-tailed fox’s familiarity with the path, it was obvious this was not its first time in this area; it seemed to have visited several times with a specific purpose.

In fact, what the three-tailed fox was seeking was the Undead Evil Fire!

Just as the Shining Star Level bull demon had said, ever since a few years ago, the ash energy on Burning Ridge had become increasingly dense, its intensity rising by several folds.

The reason wasn’t anything else but the full transformation and birth of the Undead Evil Fire a few years back.

However, the strengthening of the ash energy wasn’t a significant matter. After all, this ash energy had limited utility for a Shining Star Level bull demon and fox demon.

Unless its intensity could increase by another twofold, perhaps it could stimulate the vast star power within the Shining Star Level demon beasts.

Though it had little impact on the two demon beasts, it significantly affected the lower third-level star beasts within the Bull Clan and Fire Fox Clan at Burning Ridge.

The underground cave below Burning Ridge had always been a treasure trove for the lower third-level star beasts of both clans for cultivation. Yet, in recent years, the strengthening ash energy had caused several lower third-level star beasts to ignite their star power and burn to death.

After dying, inexplicably, they transformed into highly aggressive and hard-to-kill ash star beasts in the cave.

Thus, the bull demon and fox demon had once entered the cave together to investigate.

They had searched the cave thoroughly several times but found nothing.

So the matter was temporarily shelved.

Anyway, they believed the increasingly strong ash energy would eventually reveal its secrets, making it easier to find its source.

As for their clansmen going down for cultivation, they could only advise them to avoid entering the deeper areas since the ash star beasts for some reason only roamed in the cave’s depths.

Originally, the matter passed like this. But until two years ago, the Junchen Temple Fire Fox of the Fire Fox Clan advanced to Gold Level, greatly enhancing the investigation capability of its Cave Bright Fire Eyes.

During a cultivation session, the Junchen Temple Fire Fox accidentally discovered an abnormally astonishing and sinister fire element aura deep within the secret realm and immediately reported this to the fox demon upon its return.

Sensing something amiss, the fox demon arranged for the Junchen Temple Fire Fox to delve deeper into the cave under the guise of cultivation for further investigation.

Eventually, with the gathered information, the fox demon boldly speculated that the changes in Burning Valley were due to a recently birthed Divine Fire within!

Previously, when the fox demon and bull demon had investigated the cave together, the newborn Divine Fire had hidden itself upon sensing the powerful strength of the two Shining Star Level demon beasts.

Unexpectedly, it was discovered by the Junchen Temple Fire Fox with its Cave Bright Fire Eyes.

Although the fox demon knew of the Divine Fire’s existence, subduing it was no simple task, even though it was newly born.

Furthermore, there was a bull demon in Burning Valley, not to mention other forces outside like Black Wood Valley.

For such a supreme treasure as the Divine Fire, even siblings might turn against each other, let alone mere cohabitants?

Therefore, the fox demon decided to proceed cautiously, avoiding alarming other demon beasts. Once it subdued the Divine Fire on its own, it believed it could handle anything.

Thus, while seeking ways to subdue the Divine Fire, it also instructed the Junchen Temple Fire Fox to monitor its movements and make some preparations inside the cave, allowing it to bypass the stone gate’s seal when the time came.

Now, the fox demon had found the magic to subdue the Divine Fire, and the preparations were nearly complete!

At this moment, the Junchen Temple Fire Fox calmly continued forward for a long time according to its earlier observations, finally reaching the cave’s depths.

Suddenly, the Junchen Temple Fire Fox noticed an aura speeding towards it.

“This aura clearly isn’t those ash aggregations, nor does it seem like a star beast. Then what is it?”

The Junchen Temple Fire Fox pondered rapidly while concealing its aura to evade.

But that aura seemed to be locked onto it. Upon noticing its evasion attempt, it approached even faster, closing in within moments!

“Here it comes!”

The Junchen Temple Fire Fox’s heart tightened, fully alert. Although it wished to avoid battle to prevent complications, it seemed unavoidable now.

As the footsteps approached, a pale long-haired youth appeared in the Junchen Temple Fire Fox’s sight.

“This is… a human?”

The Junchen Temple Fire Fox was greatly surprised. How could there be a human in this cave?

This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.

Typically, star beasts lived longer and cultivated more slowly compared to humans.

Having lived for decades, the Junchen Temple Fire Fox had never seen a human.

Although many humans ventured into the Ancient Forbidden Zone for trials and adventures, almost none came to Burning Ridge.

Moreover, now they were in the underground cave beneath Burning Ridge!

“Oh? A little golden fox?”

Upon seeing the Junchen Temple Fire Fox, the long-haired youth chuckled lightly in slight surprise and then walked over step by step.

Sensing the faintly emanating danger from the other, the Junchen Temple Fire Fox grew extremely vigilant. Its three tails spread out, with gold and red flames rising from each tail and converging above its head.

In a short moment, a highly compressed flame furnace formed, with golden flames interweaving continuously, emitting faint forging sounds, showcasing immense power!

Fire element Level T1 skill, Junchen Furnace!

With a flick of its three tails, a gold flame beam shot out from the Junchen Furnace towards the long-haired youth.

The long-haired youth remained calm. Numerous crimson patterns glowed on his body as he raised his right hand, grabbing the incoming gold flame beam!

As they connected, the gold flame beam from the Junchen Furnace was absorbed massively by his right hand like a whale swallowing water!

The energy absorbed, the gold flame beam visibly weakened. Even the Junchen Furnace above the Junchen Temple Fire Fox’s head dimmed and crumbled, being entirely absorbed by the long-haired youth’s right hand, disappearing into it!

“What?!”

The Junchen Temple Fire Fox was utterly shocked. This human had effortlessly absorbed its ultimate move!

“You seem quite surprised?” The long-haired youth laughed mockingly. “This is the power of my Soul Card, heat control. It’s an incomprehensible strength for those of lower third levels. Even the lower third-level Star Card Masters of Great Flame cannot grasp this, let alone you barbaric beasts!”

Fox-type star beasts naturally had higher intelligence. Although the Junchen Temple Fire Fox couldn’t fully understand the long-haired youth’s words, it sensed his contempt, infuriating it.

But just then, the long-haired youth aimed his right palm at the three-tailed fox.

Before the three-tailed fox could react, a scorching flame beam shot out, grazing its cheek and extending several hundred meters, piercing through numerous stone walls before slowly dissipating!

The Junchen Temple Fire Fox’s pupils trembled, its entire body froze in place, not daring to move. A small portion of skin on its left cheek, grazed by the beam, had turned to ash.

Staring dazedly at the human before it, the Junchen Temple Fire Fox nearly felt the breath of death just a moment ago!

“Well, little fox,” the long-haired youth stepped forward, a smile curling at his lips, “tell me, where is the thing you’re looking for…”
