Beastmaster of the Ages

After the meeting, Tianming entered an astralpath that transported him to an area that was completely separate from the ninth level of the Tranquil Battlefield within the xenomemory space.

”Mysterium Cluster Cultivator Li Tianming, welcome to the Skydome Battlefield,” a voice said by Tianming’s ear while he was still on the path.

”Looks like I’m no longer Violetglory Disciple Li Tianming, but Mysterium Cluster Cultivator Li Tianming. It seems that the Skydome Battlefield spans a far wider area than the Tranquil Battlefield.” The Mysterium Cluster belonged to the Skydome Mundus, which was the territory of the divine wonderians. It was clear from the name of the Skydome Battlefield that it was somehow related to that.

”I’m guessing that the Tranquil Battlefield only includes the Mysterium Cluster, but the Skydome Battlefield encompasses the entire Skydome Mundus.” Tianming didn’t have too many interactions with other mysterians, so he didn’t know many such facts. Not to mention, while some sovereigns of Violetglory had made it to the Skydome Battlefield, the information they had about the place was limited. They were probably restricted to only a small area and didn’t dare to make wild guesses about the place. The fact that the mysterians made sure every member of their populace believed that the Mysterium Cluster was the center of the universe showed that some form of information manipulation in the public sphere must be present.

”The Skydome Battlefield must primarily be the territory of the divine wonderians, I guess. I wonder how it’s structured....” Perhaps every cluster had their own Tranquil Battlefield. The geniuses from each one would only go to the joint Skydome Battlefield once they were mature enough, so the people there were likely far more talented. The universe was far too vast and traveling in it would take up a lot of time, but the wondersky realm allowed for people from distant corners of the universe to interact and exchange blows.

While there was no notion of distance within the Xenoworld, Tianming had a feeling that he had been in the astralpath for quite a while.

”You’ll soon be arriving at Natal Hall,” said a seductive, enchanting voice.

”Huh?”

Light flashed before him and Tianming finally found his footing after experiencing a strong gust. He found himself within an opulent hall that was ten thousand meters tall. The countless pillars that supported it looked to be hundreds of meters tall and were covered in ancient carvings. The whole hall looked like an ancient shrine of sorts.

”Natal? As in birth?” Tianming muttered as he looked around.

”That’s right,” came the female voice once more.

Tianming turned around and saw a bundle of light congregate into human form before him. When the glow dissipated, he saw a beauty of perfect proportions before him, with long, flowing hair, an enticing figure, exquisitely crafted facial features, bright eyes, skin of the jadiest quality, and a slender, luscious figure. Every inch of her seemed sculpted to perfection. Only her more private parts were covered in a thin white veil, giving her a most seductive appearance. Such a perfect-looking person could only be the product of intentional design.

There wasn’t a single flaw to be spotted on her in terms of appearance, but Tianming soon realized that her gaze was empty. Even her smile couldn’t hide the fact that she wasn’t a real living being.

”Who are you?” Tianming asked, backing off warily as he looked at the perfect girl.

”Master, I’m your exclusive wondersky fairy, Ennie.” The girl bowed curtly in a way that highlighted her curves even more. ”I’ll be serving your every need in the Skydome Battlefield, Master. You may request anything from me.” She blushed and slightly bowed her head. Her speech and demeanor gave off a hint of shyness.

Tianming looked at her as he thought back at the wondersky fairy he was more familiar with that looked more like a piece of meat. ”As expected, VIPs get treated much better, huh!” Now that he was in the Skydome Battlefield, he no doubt counted as one of the elite. Such a perfect beauty would easily inspire all sorts of impure thoughts in anyone. However, he already had someone even more perfect in his heart and wasn’t the slightest bit interested in a beauty that was designed by the divine wonderians. At the end of the day, it was no more than a bundle of divine celestial patterns.

I wonder if there really are people who would engage in lovemaking with divine celestial patterns.... The mere thought gave Tianming shivers.

”Can you change your appearance?” Even if he wasn’t interested, he felt like he would go sick in the head from ignoring such a scantily clad beauty that appeared beside him the whole time he was here.

”What appearance do you wish me to take, Master?” the wondersky fairy asked in a troubled manner.

”Can you turn into a hen? Ideally, a hairless and seductive one,” Tianming said, smirking.

”Li Tianming, are you trying to test me?! Do you think I’m that kind of chicken?” Ying Huo yelled, its voice coming from his body. It was still in its tattoo form at the usual spot; Tianming couldn’t be bothered to move them away anymore.

”That isn’t possible, Master. This is the only appearance I can take, save for changing my sex,” the fairy said with a mischievous chuckle. She resembled a real person far too much.

”Damn those shameless divine wonderians...” Tianming cursed.

Unexpectedly, the wondersky fairy’s expression turned stern. ”Master, no speech that slanders the divine wondersky race is permitted in the wondersky realm. Please take note of this in the future or you’ll be banned from the Skydome Battlefield. And I’ll have you know that we wondersky fairies are only made to attend to other races. Divine wonderians enter the Skydome Battlefield as pairs and don’t need any guidance, hehe.”

Tianming didn’t bother arguing with the fairy. He wouldn’t even come to the Skydome Battlefield, but he wanted to meet the mysterious figure that was waiting for him there. Divine wonderians come here as husband and wife, yet you’re here constantly tempting and seducing people. How’s that appropriate?

He turned to look at the wondersky fairy’s face, but his gaze seemed drawn toward the deep valley below by a strong gravitational pull. ”You mentioned that you’re my guide here.”

”Yes, Master.” The wondersky fairy’s expression mellowed, seemingly having completely forgotten the earlier transgression.

”Good. Am I inside the Skydome Battlefield now?”

”Not yet. The Natal Hall is located above the Skydome Battlefield. You must first familiarize yourself with some information regarding your upcoming battles and challenges. If there’s no disagreement, you may begin your journey!”

”Information? Let’s see it, then.”

”Here you go, Master.” A fragrant golden mist wafted off the wondersky fairy’s body, surrounding Tianming and forming words.
