Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 3232 - They’re Alive

”Alright, let’s break through our limits together!”

After Ying Huo and the rest absorbed the manna, Tianming handed the flameyellow divinity manna over to Ji Ji. Its First Aeonic Ancestral Star form hadn’t shown up outside for quite a while now. It normally just stayed in Tianming’s lifebound space while its spiritform freely moved about outside.

At that moment, a gigantic star appeared in the sky over Starshine Mansion, glowing brilliantly pink. Fortunately, the place was large enough to accommodate Ji Ji. In but an instant, it sucked the ordered manna into itself before returning to the lifebound space to process it.

”It’s begun!” Right after handing the manna to Ji Ji, the other four had finished assimilating their manna and begun digesting them.

All of a sudden, Tianming felt clear pangs of pain. His right arm burst into infernal flames, burning bright red. All of his astrons seemed like they were melting. His left arm, on the other hand, was surrounded by black and white lightning, shuddering nonstop. A similar thing happened to both his legs. Lan Huang and Xian Xian’s bodies were taking on the remnant energies of the manna that coursed within them, mixed with the energies of the manna they had just assimilated.

Their bodies have to take in the energies of both manna so their Primordial Chaos Beasts bloodlines can be properly stimulated. Only then can they be reborn! At that thought, Tianming grit his teeth tight and focused on circulating his cosmoforce to stabilize his body, serving as their shield. No matter whether they failed or succeeded, they would be able to count on him.

”Hold on! Think of all the trouble we’ve been in over the past decade! Ying Huo, if you run into Suo Yue while still being stuck to my arm, how would you woo it? Lan Huang, think about seeing a wide field but not being able to run on it! It feels bad, right? You won’t be able to play with your beloved Wu You either! Xian Xian, you’ve been starving this entire time, right? Don’t you want a feast?”

After motivating those three, only Meow Meow was left. Tianming simply couldn’t come up with anything that could encourage it.

”Boss, what about my pep talk?” Meow Meow was waiting.

”Forget it. I think I’ll lose my own motivation by trying to motivate you,” Tianming said.

”What? You’re looking down on me!” it angrily snapped.

”What’re you going to do about it?” Tianming teased.

”I feel a bit tired,” Meow Meow said with a yawn.

Tianming wanted to squash it so bad. It was giving up too easily! ”Well, do whatever you want. You get to nap all you want on my arm anyway.”

”True! The more we talk, the more tired I feel.” Meow Meow was always the odd one out. The others were working hard, yet it merely yawned and tried to fall asleep. Even being in its current mutilated state, it didn’t stop it from catching naps.

”Hey, I was just joking! Get the hell out of my body!” Tianming didn’t think that the stinking cat would actually fall asleep! It was even snoring! Tianming was absolutely speechless.

”It’s over for you.” Right as he said that, something incredibly odd happened. As Meow Meow slept, the astrons that belonged to it actually perfectly separated from Tianming! Drop by drop, pulled away from Tianming’s arm. In but thirty seconds, Meow Meow had naturally left Tianming’s body and turned into a snoring cat right before his eyes.

Ying Huo, Lan Huang, and Xian Xian fell into abject confusion.

”After working so hard, I’m not even out yet! But it managed to perfectly reform its body while sleeping?!” Ying Huo felt like vomiting blood.

”What in the world is that?!” Lan Huang said, dazzled.

”It means effort doesn’t matter. Once you’re in the right spot, you’ll be able to separate without even trying,” Xian Xian said before stopping its struggle.

What made it speechless was how struggling to separate caused it and Tianming a lot of pain, but ceasing all effort caused their astrons to naturally separate. Xian Xian’s dryad form was forming away from his left leg.

”Fuck me!” Ying Huo snapped.

”Fuck me, too!” Lan Huang was even more stupefied.

”Tortoise Bro, you should stop moving, too,” Ying Huo said.

”Chicken Bro, I quit. I’ll lay down and rot,” Lan Huang said before trying to appear as catatonic as a dragon leg could appear. Right as the two of them did so, their astrons automatically separated from Tianming’s. As Ying Huo had fewer astrons, it finished reforming its chick body even faster than Xian Xian had.

Lan Huang and Xian Xian had the highest number of astrons. They left Tianming’s body drop by drop without any pain or pulling. Even though it seemed to be taking a while, Tianming was already letting out a smile.

”Congratulations on regaining your freedom!” He knew how hard it was after going through this with them. Be it Demoness Yin or Lan Yun, those demonesses had almost gotten Tianming killed. The scar that Demoness Yin had left on him could finally be healed!

Ying Huo’s chick form and Meow Meow’s cat form were what they looked like when they compacted their astrons to the maximum. Ying Huo was so overjoyed that it ran around Tianming’s body in its tiny form.

”Amazing! This is the taste of freedom! I’ve returned, universe! Fear the chicken that will rule you all!” Ying Huo put its wings on its hips with a sleazy look on its face.

Even though Tianming gave it a look of disdain, it’d been a long time since he had seen Ying Huo like that. It looked just as retarded as the day it had first hatched in his hand. Back then, it only had one star in its eyes. Right as Tianming was about to ask Ying Huo what its star count now was, its body suddenly turned entirely red and infernal flames burst out all around it. It shuddered and quickly rushed into the lifebound space.

”What’s going on?!” Tianming asked, worried.

”I only managed to finish forming my body. The energy of the manna is still coursing through me, so I still have to properly absorb it!” Ying Huo said.

”Can you do it?”

”Absolutely!” Ying Huo seemed confident. It hadn’t appeared so for a long while now.

”Ah. So their bodies separated before all the energies were processed.” Tianming took Meow Meow back into the lifebound space as well, lest it evolve in its sleep and draw the attention of the people of House Suishen. As he touched its furry body, he breathed a sigh of relief. The sensation of its fluffy body told Tianming that it was no longer just a pile of astrons, but a proper independent lifeform.

They had succeeded!
