Beastmaster of the Ages

Tianming knew that even Eminent Ranxing above was unaware that he had already become a background figure. I’ll give you a pleasant surprise once you wake up!

A day later, the number of golden divine birds on Tianming’s body had successfully reached two thousand, which was the result of many eminents’ efforts over thousands of years. The stir that caused was at least ten times that of overcoming the ancestral idol. By now, any saint present in Myriadpath Valley, as well as a good chunk of the foundationeer maniverse disciples, were all here.

No one interfered, continuing to watch with wide eyes and bated breaths. They were witness to the greatest miracle in the history of Myriadpath Valley. The previous greatest miracle had already been unprecedented, but this time it was very likely that Tianming would set yet another new record as well.

By the second day, many people were already numb from watching as Tianming reached four thousand birds. But fortunately, people noticed Tianming’s speed slightly decreasing. His body’s capacity might have reached its limit with four thousand golden divine birds on it.

”Although his comprehension ability’s terrifying, it’s indisputable that he isn’t a foundationeer yet.”

”Four thousand golden divine birds are indeed a challenge for him.”

”What a pity, he won’t be able to get the legacy within these few days.”

”What’s there to pity? He’ll eventually step into the Foundation stage, which means he’ll definitely obtain the legacy! It’s just a matter of time.”

”It’s hard to say if he can break into the Foundation stage. What if he’s advancing too fast and has a poor foundation?”

Just as the saints were discussing, their voices so heated they were almost arguing, a change in Tianming caused the entire crowd to exclaim again.

His lifebound beasts had visibly integrated into his body! Although it looked like four lifebound beasts, it was actually five. Even Ji Ji had come to support him. Thus, Tianming’s power expanded several times over and his body became much more robust while his astron density dramatically increased!

This is the benefit of retaining the ability to merge! At that moment Tianming was a small, shining sun. But with Ying Huo and the others supporting him, the pressure wasn’t significant anymore.

”Continue!” The bottleneck he had encountered soon disappeared. With Ying Huo and the others’ support, his capture speed returned to its peak, and even created a new peak.

The saints were completely won over.

”Amazing! Truly amazing!”

”Damn, seeing such a monster in my lifetime is worth it.”

”This is what you call a true peerless genius! Compared to him, those in the top ten of the Fortuna Ranking should be ashamed to show their faces.”

”I heard he drove many eminents to despair. They never imagined they’d see such a level of comprehension for the steles.”

Suishen Yuan, squeezed within the crowd, thought of his initial ridicule of Tianming and felt like crying. He was the most speechless person.

”Dammit, I’m never mocking him again!” Suishen Yuan didn’t dare anymore.

What followed was Tianming’s true moment of frenzy. It was like he was in a magnificent palace. Although his radiance wasn’t as intense as Eminent Ranxing’s, it was far more glorious. Who was still looking at Eminent Ranxing? All eyes were on the white-haired, golden-glowing youth.

Time passed day by day and the number of golden divine birds on Tianming’s body kept increasing. By the fourth day, he had reached eight thousand, steadily marching toward the ten thousand needed for the legacy’s first fold.

When the number reached nine thousand, Tianming and his lifebound beasts’ merged body hit another bottleneck. It was a new limit. For their current level, lasting this long was already a miracle. However, having reached nine thousand, who wouldn’t aim for ten thousand?

”Nine thousand three hundred and forty!” Countless saints excitedly watched, counting along. They all wanted to witness a new miracle, so most of their gazes were filled with fervor. Tianming was no longer the enemy of most people, and he no longer faced disdain. Therefore, most people didn’t stand against him but genuinely hoped he would succeed.

”Hang in there!”

”Nine thousand six hundred! Hang in there!”

”Just over three hundred more!”

In their eyes, Tianming had already surpassed all the eminents other than Eminent Ranxing. The golden divine birds on his body were incredibly densely packed, with numerous celestial patterns flowing on his body.

People could no longer see his face, but every move he made affected everyone’s hearts.

”Two hundred left!”

It was evident from Tianming’s slowing speed that he was infinitely close to his limit. But there were only two hundred left!

”Hang in there! Dawn’s just ahead!”

Honestly, the nearly million Foundation stage experts present were more nervous than Tianming himself, fearing he would suddenly stop.

”Go for it, just a hundred left! Hang in there!”

Nine thousand nine hundred!

The closer he came to the goal, the more fervent the eyes of every saint became. Throughout the process, those striving to push the martial path’s limits in Myriadpath Valley could feel his glory, because what Tianming was doing was truly shattering limits.

And he didn’t disappoint anyone. Although his speed significantly slowed, and his body showed some degree of cracking with blood seeping out, his actions never stopped. From that, many had determined that he would definitely succeed in the end. All they had to do was wait for that definitive miracle to be achieved.

”Fifty!”

Countless saints began to count down!

”Thirty!”

”Twenty!”

”Ten! Nine! Eight!!”

”Three!”

Myriadpath Valley erupted with a vast roar, shaking the heavens.

”Two!”

Nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine!

”The last bird!”

Tianming’s body was bleeding all over, but he grit his teeth through the final hurdle, grabbing the last golden bird and easily holding its vital point. The hardest part was incorporating it into his body! But he forced this last bird into it, enduring the suffering.

The quantitative change finally led to a qualitative change. Ten thousand, successful!

The upper levels of Myriadpath Valley erupted on the spot.

”Congratulations, Pathkeeper Li, on obtaining the Greatsun Suishen Stele’s legacy!!” a million Foundation stage experts fanatically roared in unison. The frenzy was dozens of times more intense than when Tianming had conquered the ancestral idol.

”It’s done!” Though Tianming was in pain, a grin appeared on his face. The commotion outside, everyone’s respect and frenzy, fully proved that everything he had done was worth it.
