Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 888: Chapter 690: Shocking Heaven_2

Layton’s eight arms surged with repulsive force, pounding toward Su Yuan!

"Star Dominator, Golden Flame Avatar!"

Su Yuan’s expression slightly tensed, activating all his Enhancement Skills and holding his sword horizontally in front, yet was still blown back dozens of meters by the terrifying repulsive force!

Before Su Yuan could get close again, Layton formed a seal with both hands and slammed down fiercely beneath him.

"Repulsion and Attraction Turbulence!"

In an instant, the two extremely powerful forces of repulsion and attraction swept out, and Su Yuan suddenly felt as if he were caught in a force field centered on Layton, where the forces of repulsion and attraction shifted like a turbulent flow.

Layton raised his hand and fired a Finger Gun once more.

Su Yuan initially intended to dodge to the right and close in, but suddenly a repulsive turbulence pushed him to the left.

"Hmm?"

Although surprised, Su Yuan remained calm, accelerating time to swing his Demon Saber and shatter the repulsive force bullet,

but this was only the beginning, as Layton’s eight hands moved in unison, firing Finger Guns toward Su Yuan.

Facing the pressure Su Yuan exerted, Layton remained extremely cautious, seeking the most secure approach.

At this moment, the Barrier restricted the opponent’s Space Transmutation Ability, and his Gravity Field limited the enemy’s Time Acceleration.

Coupled with the Repulsion and Attraction Turbulence to disrupt the opponent’s offense and retreat, combined with the Finger Gun for offensive restraint, he already held the upper hand, needing only to adapt accordingly!

Meanwhile, Su Yuan divided his attention, using Infinite Power to deflect at high speed while rapidly thinking.

Though unaware of how long Layton’s third gear Repulsion and Attraction Enhancement state could last, it surely surpassed the duration of his Oath of Returning Ruins.

After all, not only had he activated his skills first, but the enhancement degree of Oath of Returning Ruins also surpassed the opponent’s, reaching Half-step Burning Sun, which naturally consumed more!

Though this wasn’t like the previous battles of skipping levels, not needing to be overly urgent, if he were to wait until the Oath of Returning Ruins ended, killing the opponent would become even more troublesome.

So, it’s clear now that there are two strategies:

Either, use Time Reversal directly to refresh Divine Prohibition, taking the initiative in battle and gaining the upper hand for victory.

Or, continue dragging it out with the opponent until both sides are severely exhausted, then use Time Reversal to decisively determine the outcome.

The former is risky but may yield unexpected results; the latter is secure but time-consuming.

This situation arose because many of his techniques were being restricted.

Instant Movement, Teleportation, Phase Transfer... even Qingming Realm, none of them could be used, making many tactics and operations impossible.

Combined with Layton’s inherent power as a Holy Temple Moon Knight, they were locked in this stalemate after using all means.

If it were anyone else being targeted like this, they would have failed already!

Now, obstructed by the changing force field, Su Yuan hastily accelerated to respond, avoiding Layton’s attack with thrilling precision once again.

"Is there a way to quickly kill the enemy without relying on Time Reversal to refresh Divine Prohibition before Oath of Returning Ruins ends?"

Su Yuan mused, for he had always been quite adept at combat.

Be it Combat Consciousness, Skill Usage, or adaptability under changing circumstances, he almost always reached the pinnacle.

He could make reasonable judgments based on the environment, advancing and retreating appropriately, whether taking risks or being cautious.

This led to him being strong in battle, never making mistakes against those enemies who needed to be killed.

But consequently, it also left little room for unexpected occurrences or innovation... or rather, "possibilities."

And now, Su Yuan couldn’t help but ponder.

"What must be done to kill him?"

"Fast enough to charge to his front under gravity suppression and break through the defense of eight arms, completing the attack before he can react."

"Precise enough to strike the weak point for critical damage or fatality, leaving him no room to recover or counterattack."

"Strong enough to break through a defense even the Hundred Beasts Tripod couldn’t heavily damage in one hit."

"..."

Su Yuan’s mind raced, figuring out how to meet these conditions.

First, for "fast enough," his quickest means was the tenfold acceleration of Returning Ruins Divine Wind outburst.

However, that wasn’t fast enough to prevent Layton from reacting, nor fast enough to attack through the eight-arm defense.

But, Time Acceleration could perfectly stack with other acceleration methods...

If speed must be heightened further, he still had another move—Flash!

Ten Times Acceleration + Flash... could possibly suffice!

Secondly, for "precise enough," hitting a weak point first requires discerning the changing pattern of the Repulsion and Attraction Domain underfoot and calculating the route of attack.

With Su Yuan’s level as an Array Dao Master, he had already noticed in the previous exchange that this Repulsion and Attraction Domain wasn’t a completely chaotic change when not under Layton’s direct control; it was simply quite complex.

Only by understanding the variations in the Repulsion and Attraction Domain could he ensure his attack would remain unimpeded, or even... aid him!

As for the last "strong enough"... a large-scale Star Power attack like Sword Above Nine Heavens definitely wouldn’t work.

And considering it must be compatible with Flash, there weren’t many options left.

Using Two Heavens One Style, True Three Extremes Unification to trigger energy compound outbursts would make Divine Fire and Divine Wind stronger.

Yet, if Flash was used, then simply using energy Enchantment to increase lethality, Divine Fire and Divine Wind falls below the power of Third Gear Void Sword Qi in terms of terrorizing damage potential.
