Chapter 506: 423
Nobody knew how long it had been.
Within a mountain hollow in the Barbaric Mountains, a figure sped towards the distance. It was Su Yuan.
“Is it here…?”
Silver light shimmered in Su Yuan’s eyes as he activated All-Knowing Vision to survey the area.
Soon, Su Yuan sensed something. He walked to a spot on the ground and sent a burst of Star Power downwards.
The ground cracked open, revealing the Pulse Drawing Bead and ring that the Demon Soul had hidden underground.
“Another Wolf Vein?”
Su Yuan’s gaze shifted as he inspected the ring that didn’t belong to the Demon Soul.
At first glance, Su Yuan saw an Epic Grade Dark Cross Sword and a spare golden and white uniform inside.
Su Yuan immediately understood what had happened to the Demon Soul.
“Capricorn Star Envoy…?”
Su Yuan took a deep breath. There was no doubt that the Demon Soul had killed the Capricorn Star Envoy and taken their belongings.
Long ago, Su Yuan received a summoning signal from the Demon Soul. Knowing that the Demon Soul’s avatar wouldn’t summon him without reason, Su Yuan had rushed to the location on the Ink Qilin.
Moments later, Su Yuan sensed the Demon Soul’s death.
He immediately put away the Ink Qilin and used Instant Movement to hurry to the location, just arriving now.
Su Yuan drew out the Demon-controlling God Demon Saber. Its glow had already faded.
“Three months…”
Su Yuan frowned. This time, it would take three whole months for the Demon Soul avatar to be reconstructed.
Epic Skills like Void Evil Manifesting Saints, Great Sun Burning Body Technique, and the Divine Fire were all sealed inside the saber when the Demon Soul died.
Forcibly extracting them would damage the saber, potentially causing it to degrade or become useless, just like last time.
However, unlike before, the Demon Soul avatar now required three months to rebuild, not just ten days. Additionally, an Earth Tribulation had begun, making the next three months far from peaceful.
After some thought, Su Yuan sheathed the Demon-controlling God Demon Saber and carefully inspected Capricorn’s ring again.
Inside were various precious items, including many materials accumulated over time in the New Dust Realm.
“Fire Meteor Thunder Heart and Mirror Lake Thunder Magnet?”
Among the materials, he found exactly what he needed: four-level materials of fire and water.
“Luck, perhaps?”
While it was fortunate to find such materials, Su Yuan couldn’t help but feel it was too convenient.
Finding one type might be a coincidence, but both types? It seemed too lucky…
As his gaze passed over the materials, Su Yuan discovered a separate golden Star Core and picked it up.

“This is…?” Su Yuan’s expression shifted. “Could it be such a treasure!”
[Time Weaving Worm]
[Grade: Epic]
[Skills: Time Reversal (Epic), Multiple Consecutive Strikes (Epic)…]
This Star Core contained rare time-based skills!
Su Yuan had seen many space-related skills, but this was his first encounter with time-based skills.
Holding the Star Core, a surge of excitement rose in Su Yuan’s heart.
Quickly containing his excitement, Su Yuan frowned slightly.
It was plausible for the Star Envoy to possess such a treasure, but considering the materials—Fire Meteor Thunder Heart and Mirror Lake Thunder Magnet—it felt orchestrated.
After pondering for a while, Su Yuan shook his head, carefully storing the Star Core.
He then used Far-Sighted to search the area thoroughly.
“Xia Xuan?”
After scanning the area, he noticed Xia Xuan lying not far away.
Su Yuan raised an eyebrow and, in a flash, disappeared from his spot.
Su Yuan quickly arrived beside Xia Xuan.
“She’s here too, and appears badly injured.”
Su Yuan felt increasingly that establishing communication was vital.
Otherwise, like now, he had no idea what had happened to Xia Xuan lying on the ground.
Thankfully, her wounds didn’t seem to be caused by the Demon-controlling God Demon Saber’s manifestation of the Demon Soul—rather…
Su Yuan turned his hand to reveal a Dark Cross Sword.
“So, was Xia Xuan severely injured by the Capricorn? Given her condition, she seems to have taken a Turtle Breath Revitalizing Pill. Did the Demon Soul give it to her?”
Due to its side effects of inducing unconsciousness, the Turtle Breath Revitalizing Pill was a rare elixir in the Military Affairs Hall. Su Yuan had exchanged for it considering Ruan Ruan and the Demon Soul might need it.
If Xia Xuan knew the pill’s side effects, she wouldn’t lie here so exposed. She would’ve moved to a more hidden spot.
“It seems the Demon Soul saved her, gave her the pill, and then killed Capricorn.”
Su Yuan’s reasoning led him to this conclusion.
He stopped thinking and approached to check on Xia Xuan’s condition, but a deep red flame burst from her body.
A flash of silver light covered Su Yuan as he instantly teleported away.
The Divine Fire pursued him briefly before returning to Xia Xuan, circling before retreating into her body.
“Red Lotus Karma Fire, Divine Fire protection.”
Su Yuan speculated, looking closely around Xia Xuan.
As expected, there were remnants of ashes on the ground.
Thus, it wasn’t luck that some Star Beast hadn’t devoured Xia Xuan.
The Red Lotus Karma Fire had guarded her, allowing her to remain unconscious but unharmed in the Barbaric Mountains.
While it could fend off lower third-level Star Beasts, any stronger Shining Star Beasts could breach the Divine Fire’s protection.
“Since she’s Xia Yue’s sister and provided the Space Gate, I’ll watch over her for a while.”
By now, Su Yuan knew the Space Gate’s value far exceeded the Divine Destruction Arrow, as it was unparalleled for travel and life-saving.
After a brief thought, Su Yuan waited outside the Divine Fire’s range.
Time passed. Quite a while later,
“Mm~”
Xia Xuan softly moaned, slowly opening her eyes and pressing herself off the ground.
Though her hands still ached, the cut tendons had barely healed.
“Right! The Star Envoy, and that blood-robed man!”
Xia Xuan’s pupils contracted as she remembered the prior battle. She hastily stood and examined her surroundings.
Neither the Star Envoy nor the blood-robed man were in sight, but a familiar young man was.
“You’re awake?” Su Yuan said as she awoke.
“Su Yuan?” Xia Xuan frowned. “What are you doing here?”
Su Yuan smiled. “I was searching for Star Veins and materials when I found you lying here. I waited to ensure you were safe.
Fortunately, despite your severe injuries, none were fatal. The elixir has already healed much of your wounds.”
“I see… Thanks.”
Xia Xuan was puzzled at Su Yuan’s timely appearance but still thanked him.
The priority was the outcome of the earlier battle!
Recalling Capricorn and the blood-robed man, Xia Xuan quickly asked, “Where are the others? Did you see them?”
“Others? I haven’t seen anyone.” Su Yuan shook his head, then asked, “What happened here?”
The best way to stop questions was to ask them first.
Xia Xuan, thinking Su Yuan had no idea, couldn’t question further.
“There was a battle here.” Xia Xuan said casually before turning into a flame and sensing the area.
But the fight between the Demon Soul and Capricorn had ended long ago, almost erasing the Star Power Fluctuation traces.
Even though Xia Xuan found the battle site, she couldn’t discern more.
“I still don’t know the outcome.”
Xia Xuan raised an eyebrow, concerned about the Wolf Vein and the blood-robed man.
That man saved her life.
But now, with Capricorn and the blood-robed man missing, she couldn’t deduce the situation.
If he lost, Capricorn wouldn’t spare her.
Did he win?
Yet, recalling Capricorn’s realm that restricted perception and Star Power attacks, Xia Xuan felt powerless. She shook her head.
For now, Xia Xuan couldn’t imagine beating such an opponent.
After fruitless reflection, she descended again.
“Anything?”
“No.”
Xia Xuan shook her head, poorly sensing her injuries.
They weren’t severe but needed two or three days to heal, especially her reconnected tendons.
“Turn around,” Xia Xuan suddenly requested.
Su Yuan paused, seeing her tattered robe barely covering her. He promptly complied.
Shuffling noises, slightly enticing, came from behind.
“If you dare peek, don’t blame me for burning you regardless of Xiao Yue.”
Su Yuan silently shook his head, not responding.
He didn’t need to turn and wasn’t interested in taking advantage of her.
“Okay.”
Su Yuan turned to see Xia Xuan in a new black robe, her hair tied up.
“I didn’t expect, at your young age, you’d be a Barrier Master.” She rubbed her arm.
Xia Xuan had been aware of the new young Fourth-level Barrier Master in the Sky Patrol Department.
As she studied Su Yuan, Xia Xuan noted his changes.
Their first meeting was during the Demon City Holy Spring competition when he led Xia Yue’s Demon Capital Academy to victory.
The second time, he reached the Gold Limit and traded the Divine Destruction Arrow for the Space Gate.
Now, their third meeting, he had become a Shining Star, joined the Sky Patrol Department, and risen as a renowned Barrier Master!
His swift advancements were unimaginable.
“Just a bit of talent,” Su Yuan replied, then asked, “What’s your plan?”
Xia Xuan assessed her condition, looking deeper into the mountains.
“These Barbaric Mountains are vast, with a Wolf Vein at the edge. I’m heading further in.”
Su Yuan considered, then handed her a Blue Crystal.
Its light flickered. The mountains’ depths likely held Star Veins.
“Very well. I also need to go inside. We can go together.”
