Beastmaster of the Ages

The astralship crashed into the ground, completely falling apart on impact. However, it didn’t explode, indicating that its internal compressed nova source had been almost exhausted.

At the same time, the middlekin star also smashed down, causing the entire land to tremble. Tianming thought it would keep going until it came out of the other side of the continent, but it didn’t.

After landing, the ground flashed with countless divine patterns, steadily catching the deific-class middlekin star.

”Impressive!” Tianming was amazed. He had been wondering how the continents hadn’t been destroyed in a place filled with middlekin stars.

The answer was that formations had been protecting them. So, although the middlekin star had crashed down, it didn’t cause any devastation. Its structure remained stable, naturally reinforced by formations. It stably landed right in front of Tianming!

Suddenly, a young boy burst out of the wreckage of the astralship. Judging by his appearance, he looked to be around thirteen years old by the Vermillion Bird Kingdom’s age system. He was dressed in a black and red robe, his face determined. Though he was covered in dirt, his energy and spirit were excellent.

His gaze fell upon Tianming.

”Save me!” The young boy ran toward him.

”Save him?” That meant someone was chasing him!

”Shameless little thief, don’t you dare run!” At that moment, a much larger astralship descended from above, from which a ten-meter-tall woman in black robes riding a black demonic wolf emerged!

”A beastmaster?” Tianming’s pupils contracted.

The demonic wolf was more than ten meters long. Its fur was as sharp as blades and it had a crescent moon mark on its forehead. Along its body were twelve wolfish beastfaces, indicating it was a 13-crest beast! Its eyes also had over thirteen million stars, higher than Ying Huo and the others.

As expected, the beastmasters of the Upper Star Ruin all had cosmic crest beasts.

As for the black-robed woman, she was ten meters tall, with such a curvaceous figure that her clothing barely held together. Tianming suddenly imagined what Jiguang would look like after becoming an overflower.

She would be so big it would be enough to fit an entire person inside. What the hell?! I need to become an overflower! he thought to himself.

At that moment, the young boy had already reached him. His eyes burned with sincerity as he said, ”Big Brother, please save my life! I, Long Chen, will surely repay you!”

”I don’t even know you, let alone what crimes you’ve committed. What if you’re an irredeemable criminal? Why should I save you?” Tianming indifferently replied.

Hearing that, the young boy grit his teeth with a slightly disappointed expression. He didn’t say anything else and just continued to run past Tianming.

”Hah! A foundationeer slave asking for help from another piece of foundationeer trash? Are you stupid?” the black-robed woman sneered as she rode her demonic wolf past Tianming.

She had barely finished her words when white mist erupted from Tianming’s body, unleashing a stream of white bubbles that smashed toward her.

She didn’t take it seriously, but the next moment, she screamed in agony as she was knocked off the wolf, her face bleeding and cracked open.

Bai Ye took Tianming’s form and viciously snarled, ”Who the hell are you calling trash?! That’s my avatar! Insulting him means insulting me, understand? DIE!”

Tianming was speechless.

”I’m from the Blazestar Cult! How dare you touch me?! You’re dead!” The ten-meter-tall woman struggled to her feet, clearly about to call for backup.

”Attack!” Tianming’s gaze turned icy. The Grand-Orient Sword and his ten decapath era godswords appeared and his lifebound beasts emerged from his lifebound space.

It was his first time fighting an overflower opponent purely with his own battle strength without relying on his emperor enhancement; if he wanted to kill, he had to be fast and ruthless!

”Kill the beastmaster!” Beastmasters in the Upper Star Ruin heavily relied on their cosmic crest beasts. The beastmasters themselves were the weakest among cultivators of the same level.

The Grand-Orient Sword split into two.

The woman had just started to react when Radiant Vines and black roots shot up from the ground, entangling her.

The black demonic wolf turned back, fiercely charging at Tianming. Its divine ability formed a dark sphere, swallowing the surrounding light as it hurtled toward him.

Simultaneously, Bai Ye, Ying Huo, and Meow Meow struck.

Ying Huo and Meow Meow’s combined divine ability, Blitzburn Origin, clashed with the dark sphere, resulting in a powerful detonation. Meanwhile, Bai Ye’s Phantasmic Bubbles bypassed the explosion and landed on the black demonic wolf’s head.

The wolf screeched in agony, thrashing on the ground as its head split open!

By then, Tianming had already closed in on the woman.

”Your lifebound beasts aren’t even cosmic crest beasts? What kind of garbage—” The woman was stunned. ”Lower Star Ruins power?!” She was dumbfounded. How could someone from the Lower Star Ruins be here?!

That slight distraction cost her as Lan Huang’s Primordial Soundwave slammed into her and Tianming’s twin Grand-Orient Swords executed the Yin-Yang Immemorial Art, moving in concert with each other.

Strike after strike pierced through her body. With the decapath era godswords reinforcing the Grand-Orient Swords’ destructive power, he instantly annihilated the overflower.

”My Blazestar Cult will—⁠!”

Before she could finish her threat, Tianming swiftly decapitated her.

”Who told you to talk so much?” Cursing him of all people? Right now, his brain had the Celestial Sourcepath Progenitor as a resident that was very quick to anger.

Having finished her off, Tianming immediately turned and engaged the demonic wolf.

”I have to admit, this wolf is much stronger than the woman!” Even after being bombarded with Xia words and divine abilities, the wolf endured it all and even counterattacked.

However, Tianming had already killed its beastmaster, making it go berserk.

While Tianming seemed to be fighting alone, in reality, it was a group assault. With the Phantasmic Bubbles impairing its mind, Xia words restricting its movements, and Ying Huo, Meow Meow, and Bai Ye launching relentless attacks, not to mention the Grand-Orient Swords executing deadly slashes....

Finally, the demonic wolf, despite its monstrous power, howled one final time before being slain by Tianming.

”You’ve offended the Blazestar Cult! Your entire race will die, slave!” With one last sinister growl, the demonic wolf’s soul was obliterated.

”What garbage. Who told you to talk so much?” Bai Ye sneered.

”Let’s go!” Tianming collected their loot and prepared to return to the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb. This place had become too conspicuous.

Suddenly, a voice called out. ”Big brother, take me with you!”

Tianming turned around and saw the young red-robed boy staring at him with blazing eyes.
