Beastmaster of the Ages

”Too bad the manna with nine hundred and ninety-nine apertures are too risky. If I could somehow succeed now, that would be true awesomeness!” Tianming had already sought wealth in danger, so for now, there was no need to take that most uncertain gamble.

”Ling’er!” Tianming embraced her slender figure in the blue dress.

Feiling immersed herself in his imperial radiance, her entire body feeling weak.

”Let’s go! Go to save the people!”

”And save yourself, your relatives, and friends,” Feiling replied.

”Yes! And most importantly... you!” Tianming fervently said.

Feiling was stunned. ”Am I the most important?”

”Of course, silly!” Tianming held her delicate waist and rushed out of the Sun’s core.

With his transformation and the collective breakthrough of the people, the commotion was so great that he assumed that Xiaodao and the others already knew. Sure enough, when he and Feiling returned aboveground, Xiaodao, Lin Xiao, Lin Changkong, Dongshen Zhuojun, and others were waiting for him at the entrance with red eyes.

”Feng’er! You’ve made great progress?” Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue came up, hugging their grandson with excitement.

”Take a look!” Tianming gripped the Grand-Orient Sword and swung it at the sky. The sword ki formed by the nine cosmic impulses soared upward, bursting open like a firework and shaking countless people in the Sky Palace Formation.

The Lin Clan powerhouses, whether they were foundationeers or not, could naturally see the power of Tianming’s attack at a glance.

”This.... Feng’er’s sword is almost enough to kill me! In just a few decades, you’ve become so powerful—it’s truly terrifying!” Lin Changkong stared wide-eyed, unable to help but suck in a deep breath, even though they were on the same side.

”Back when we first met, he was just a junior, a hundred thousand miles away from me. Now, I’m far from his opponent,” Dongshen Zhuojun said with amazement.

”What’re you talking about? He already made a lot of improvement in the Oldgod Domain. When my grandson just returned, he was still at the Stellaminoris stage! Now, he can probably contend with foundationeers and directly enter the top five of the reges mundi ranking!” Dongshen Yue’s eyes were shining, full of shock. Was such a miracle really her grandson? No matter what the Sun was facing, she felt so happy.

”I’m only a cosmic cartographer myself, and what I carry is mainly the power of tens of trillions of people. What I’m doing is also the will of everyone,” Tianming said.

”Even so, you’re unparalleled, unprecedented! Yi Daiyan rose over fifty years, but her starting point was an astral god, not a stellaminor. In comparison, you’re even more extraordinary! Your cultivation system is truly... invincible!” Xiaodao sighed.

Xiaodao’s accomplishments had almost caught up with the two generations of reges mundi of the Swordgod Lin Clan, but compared to Tianming he felt like a speck of dust. Being able to be Tianming’s master was only from an advantage in age and the ability to protect him.

That was the genuine shock of the seniors in their hearts.

”I can only exert such combat power on the Sun. If I go elsewhere, it won’t work,” Tianming explained.

”Even so, that’s enough. Who isn’t on their own turf every day? Have you ever seen Yi Daiyan leave Ebonia?” Dongshen Yue rolled her eyes.

”Yes, Grandma.” Their words also gave Tianming great confidence.

Then he frowned and listened to Yin Chen’s description of the situation here. Eight days had passed since Mister Taihe began arranging the Starshatter Formation. In that time, nearly two million wonderians had entered!

The Flameyellow Guard Formation was very effective, killing more than five hundred thousand wonderians and leaving them with a total of one million casualties on the Sun. The elders of the Fengqing Clan were heartbroken.

Fortunately, with two million people coming in, they had completed their mission. The remaining five hundred thousand had already left the Flameyellow Guard Formation and stayed outside, waiting to enter through the Xenoworld. In other words, there was no one inside the Flameyellow Guard Formation; Wudi and the flameyellow fiends were left idle.

”The Starshatter Formation will possibly be completed within two days. By then, with two million astral gods in place, Mister Taihe will use their power. Once the Sky Palace Formation is broken, more than two million astral gods will take action against mortals and we’ll definitely suffer heavy casualties,” Xiaodao said with concern.

”Two million astral gods, while we have about seven hundred thousand... but we also have astralships. If we really fight, it’s definitely easier than dealing with eight million astral gods on the other side. The people can also scatter and flee, and the situation won’t be as bad as it was at the beginning.... But in such a chaotic battle, once mortals and gods are affected by any shockwaves, it’ll result in the annihilation of tens of billions of people. Even if it’s tens of millions, I’m afraid you won’t be able to accept it.” Lin Xiao looked at his grandson with sorrow.

He knew that Tianming cared about all the people. He cared the most about mortals among these leaders. His entire cultivation system, foundation, and core were all entrusted to the people. He rose from the mortal dust and climbed up from the bottom. He wouldn’t see each and every living person as just a number.

”If the Sky Palace Formation is broken, with seven hundred thousand fighting against two million, plus the battle between peak powerhouses... if we let the masses scatter, how many people will be killed, or at least injured?” Tianming asked.

”Astral gods have great destructive power, and wonders have an especially large range. At least a hundred billion will be killed right away! And that’s only the beginning. If we assume that we’ll lose in the battle of powerhouses and the Sun is occupied, the wonderians who left will come back. Once they decide to avenge Meng Ying, they may massacre the star!” Xiaodao said with a heavy voice.

Massacre a star! Tianming remembered the Starhunters’ massacre. Nova source wars were always brutal.

”Even if the entire Sun is covered in corpses, a single flame can make the whole world return to its original state. At that time, it’ll be like those who died never existed,” Dongshen Zhuojun sighed.

”So, no matter what, destroying the Starshatter Formation is our only way! The Sky Palace Formation must not be broken!” Tianming clenched his teeth.

”Yes! There’s no way back!” Xiaodao looked at him and continued, ”Three days ago, we found that the Flameyellow Guard Formation couldn’t stop enough wonderians and were already planning to take action. If you didn’t come back, we might’ve taken action today. After all, we really can’t afford to delay any longer. Every day we delay, the abyss creeps closer to us!”

To take action meant directly facing the peak powerhouses of the enemy. After Meng Ying’s death, there were still six foundationeers and more than a hundred peak cosmic cartographers! There was also the terrifying existence of Mister Taihe and Demoness Yin.
