Beastmaster of the Ages

The Archaionfiend expectantly watched as Tianming took out two Archaionfiend Eyes, turning the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb into a hellscape. Although there were fewer than Tianming had gotten in the wooden house, these two were vastly different.

For one thing, each eye had ten smaller eyes within, chaotically moving in all directions.

“Excellent, a decaeyed beast, and even one with two eyes!”

“What’s a decaeyed beast?” Tianming asked.

“It’s a high-level bloodline among Archaionfiends. Both of those are Archaionfiend Eyes, and there’s even ten small ones in each!” Wu You was excited.

“So what’s your bloodline?” Tianming asked.

“Me? I’m the apex bloodline, the future Archaionfiend queen!” Wu You proudly said. It seemed that females were stronger in the Archaionfiend race.

“So why don’t you have two eyes and ten smaller ones? I only remember you having one Archaionfiend Eye.” Tianming had seen its eye in the Archaion Sect before, and that was a far cry from these. If Tianming had encountered these back then, he wouldn’t even have gotten to the absorption stage, but died on the spot.

“How would I know? Maybe it’s because of my regression! I can’t remember matters of my past.” The Archaionfiend lowered its head, its face confused. It looked quite pitiful.

Tianming rolled his eyes. He had originally planned to use it as a guide for the astralscape, but it’d turned out to be an idiot. “Can these help you transform?” he asked.

“Yes, definitely!” Wu You raised its head and there were even tears leaking from its fake eye.

“Alright then, take them.”

The Archaionfiend gave Tianming a deep look when it heard that, then looked at Feiling, of whom it was more afraid. It used its mouth to grab the Archaionfiend Eyes before vanishing into Xiaoxiao’s lifebound space. ”Thank you.”

“What do you think?” Tianming asked Xiaoxiao.

“I think you’ve been giving it nightmares since long ago,” Xiaoxiao said.

“Am I that heroic?” Tianming narcissistically said.

“More like Feiling’s Bloodrose Curse.…” Xiaoxiao smiled.

“Well, if my wife’s awesome, so am I!” Tianming wrapped an arm around the waist of the beauty next to him. “Let’s make our triumphant return!”

……

At the Inkwell Sea, a fleet of astralships were in a sword formation, locking down the area. The return of the Black Panther Army meant that the ebon astralships had been mostly chased down and destroyed. The Inkwell Sea was much less threatening with its guardian formation and astralships destroyed.

Now, killing the wildbeasts and warbeasts was the last military objective!

After the billion Kunmo clan members surrendered, they were asked to toss their fauna worldstones into the water and retreat from the Inkwell Sea. Even though they weren’t very willing, as losers, they didn’t have any choice but to abandon their warbeasts.

Thus, the warbeasts and wildbeasts didn’t even understand what was going on as they were massacred by the Black Panther Army. The entire process took an hour, but it wasn’t over yet. There were many underwater caverns where wildbeasts congregated, and now the tenth branch had the access to wipe out wildbeast nests.

It would take months, or even years, but it wouldn’t be hard. Tianming had already helped them complete the hardest step.

Thus, when he flew back, the Black Panther Army erupted into cheers after hearing that he had slain Kunmo Yong.

“Lin Feng! Lin Feng!”

“The glory of the Swordgod Lin Clan!”

“Wait, no. We’re now the Skycross Lin Clan, and he’s our etherean’s disciple, so this is half our glory!”

“Incredible! They were prepared this time, so it wouldn’t have been so smooth without his help.”

“This feeling of worship truly is amazing.” Tianming closed his eyes and could feel the Omnisentient Threads beginning to form. “I clearly just need to make a few more accomplishments, then this unfamiliarity will be overcome and a new system of the emperor and the masses will form.”

He had almost succeeded in the Infinitum Swordsea, but alas, it wasn’t safe there.

But the foundation he had laid there still remained.

“It’s fine. I have time, a thousand years of it!” Cultivation couldn’t be rushed, especially the path of a world god.

……

The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb landed and Tianming spotted Lin Xiaoxiao. She was Lin Xiaodao’s cousin and Lin Zhongtian’s daughter. Although she was an elder, she looked young and full of life. She was like a goddess in the hearts of the Black Panther Army.

This ‘auntie’ had a spicy body, her black, skin-tight armor perfectly clinging to her body, showing long legs that were filled with power and a thin waist. Her hair fluttered behind her, giving her an unrestrained look. Combined with her heroic aura, she really did seem like a war goddess.

“Not bad, not bad at all, kid!” Lin Xiaoxiao came over and thumped Tianming on the chest. The last time they had met, she hadn’t known Moran was that strong.

“Ow!” Her fist nearly defeated Tianming. “Gentler, Auntie.”

“Teasing me? Have you forgotten I’m your senior?”

“Nonsense, I’m being very polite.”

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled at Feiling and the rest. “Alright, I won’t mess around with you any longer, I’m very busy. It’s easy to conquer, but the things that come after are tough. There’s too many Kunmo clan people to handle, and we still have to build our own base to truly make the Inkwell Sea ours. It’ll be a project that lasts at least ten years and we’ll even need to defend it throughout. I’m off!”

“Alright then, I’ll be returning to Skyhold Palace,” Tianming said.

“Cultivate well! I’ll enlist you next time if needed, okay?” Lin Xiaoxiao winked.

“No problem!”

“Very loyal, I like it!”
