Beastmaster of the Ages

Luori Yumo was one of the most talented beastmasters in the Realm of Order, a member of the Sundown Pantheon! Her goldblitz dragonbat was six whole crests more powerful than the tensource beast of Myriadpath Valley—the strongest kind that Tianming had seen—and its beastmaster was a beauty that stood thirty meters tall!

”You call that a dragon?” Tianming had seen the dragon lifebound beasts of many dragonoids. Compared to them, the goldblitz dragonbat looked incredibly derivative.

”You had me come out to deal with the likes of this?” the goldblitz dragonbat said with some frustration once it saw their opponents.

”Jiang Linxi said we shouldn’t underestimate them. It’s best to stay safe!” Luori Yumo coldly said. Then she drew a golden maniverse-class sword that was adorned with many golden roses, the petals of which were incredibly sharp. While it was a slender sword to the wielder, it was disproportionately huge to Tiaming.

”Alright, I’ll start!” The beast didn’t want to say anything to Tianming and immediately flapped its wings as it charged toward him. At the same time, Luori Yumo pointed her huge sword at him.

”Qingyu, let’s split the two of them apart. You go for the beastmaster and I’ll take the beast. Don’t let them work together!” Tianming said as Bai Ye continued spitting countless profanities while nestled within his brain.

”Sure thing!” Qingyu nodded.

Even though the beast before them had sixteen times the energy capacity of its master, Luori Yumo was still a third-level overflower. She wasn’t weak by any means; her beast was simply too strong! Beastmasters could also make up for that disparity using cosmic artifacts, battle arts, and many other techniques, so they weren’t pushovers, especially when she was five levels above Qingyu. Needless to say, Tianming faced even more pressure against a 16-crest beast that was seven levels above him. If it weren’t for the bloodline transformations of Ying Huo and the rest, he wouldn’t be able to match up to it. ”It’s do or die!”

They had Moran to back them up, as well. Even though she’d absorbed quite a few divine wonders, it appeared that the wonderians that had gone to the Ancient Oldgod Domain weren’t powerful figures at all. Thus, their divine wonders weren’t that unique or rare, which meant Tianming didn’t have to worry about enlisting Moran’s help. All three of them had to fight with everything! Tianming fused with his lifebound beasts and charged towards the goldblitz dragonbat.

”I have to deal with my opponent before I can help him!” Qingyu grit her teeth and circled around the beast. Wielding the maniverse-class Fullmoon Blade that Tianming had given her, she turned into a silver beam and shot toward Luori Yumo.

”Sixth!” Tianming yelled. He wasn’t going to hold back in the slightest. Bai Ye’s ability was the most explosive and powerful in his arsenal, as well as the one that could create the biggest edge for him right away, as it was rare enough to keep catching people off guard!

”How dare a mere bat call itself a dragon?! Die!” The white bundle of mist turned into tens of millions of bubbles. After absorbing a manna with more than eight thousand apertures, Bai Ye had grown leaps and bounds in power, even though its appearance hadn’t changed much. As such, its ability had also been enhanced!

The 16-crest beast was used to shrugging off abilities from weaker opponents and didn’t even bother evading the bubbles. Most people in the Middlekin Star Ruin still didn’t quite understand Tianming, especially those who had been cultivating in secluded rooms in the Cosmic God Palace. All they knew about him was that he was some kind of weird mutant.

The goldblitz dragonbat even felt insulted that Bai Ye was going to attack it with mere bubbles. It angrily roared, causing the fifteen beastfaces on its body to roar at the same time. Then countless bolts of golden lightning shot out—Sixteen Crest Hellthunder!

The sudden flash of lightning filled the darkness and coursed toward Tianming, drowning out the bubbles. It was powerful enough that it could deal quite a lot of damage to him even in his combined form!

”Meow Meow!” His beast didn’t even need to hear the order and automatically helped him avoid the most fatal bolts of lighting. However, that wasn’t enough! Tianming fused his totems into his sword during the evasion. Then abilities came shooting out of his arms, Monorigin Infernal Blaze and Biritual Chaos Thunder! The two abilities clashed with the bat’s lightning bolts. While they didn’t completely neutralize it, it was enough to leave Tianming unscathed.

”You have abilities, too?! Like a specter?!” The dragonbat was shocked at something it had never before seen, but only for a moment. Right as it was about to continue its assault, it saw something it couldn’t believe in the periphery of its visual field: bubbles!

Hadn’t the bubbles already been destroyed?! Why were they right before its eyes? It charged straight into the sea of bubbles, where many of them rushed straight to its astral brain. Mere astrons weren’t able to stop the spirit bubbles from crashing into its astral brain and exploding! It felt like they were heavily hammering into a pool of water, scattering countless droplets and creating nonstop reverberating waves. The goldblitz dragonbat’s vita shook as the world began turning around it. It contorted from the pain that came from its soul being tortured and crashed into the wall, shrieking and twitching like it had gone mad!

”Got it!” Tianming immediately followed up with a flurry of attacks with his empowered body, including using Lan Huang’s Triflair Primordial World to land a kick on the beast’s head. The explosion from the ability unleashed the power of worlds into the beast. Even though Tianming was small, he was much tougher than the goldblitz dragonbat. His kick effortlessly broke through its head, scattering astral blood all over the place!

”Don’t stop!” Tianming used the grand xia lexicon to keep the beast pinned down, preventing it from getting back up. Then he suddenly disappeared after using Fiveway Blitzrun and appeared in front of the beast’s head. His totems used their sevenfold simulacrum and channeled the power into the Grand-Orient Sword, which Tianming split in two to wildly slash away at the bat wings! Yin-Yang Immemorial Art! The black and gold swords, one yin and the other yang, slashed nonstop into the bones of the 16-crest beast.
