Beastmaster of the Ages

Under Ji Ji’s control, every middlekin star thrown into the sun rapidly dissolved, transforming into pure nova source that became part of the regrowing Flameyellow Imperial Star.

Inside the fusion formation, stellar storms raged as each middlekin star expanded a thousandfold in an instant. The stars’ expansion continuously drove the growth of the Flameyellow Fusion Formation. Over thirty million people and beasts within the Sky Palace Formation clearly saw the world beneath their feet expanding and returning to its peak. The densely interwoven celestial patterns on the fusion formation now evolved into a new, deeply hidden formation, forming a new power structure that propelled the entire world’s transformation.

Witnessing the scene firsthand, the flameyellow descendants were naturally moved to tears, their hearts surging with passion. Their dreams had become reality!

Though they possessed little now, the future filled them with excitement.

Their lifebound beasts, especially, had had to obey the three cults’ laws in the Middlekin Star Ruin. If they emerged from their lifebound space, they would be executed, deprived of dignity and rights. But now, in this vast land, they were free to soar and run. Led by Ying Huo, Lan Huang, and others, they unleashed millennia of suppressed emotions.

This world, called ”home”, had given them a sense of belonging. They were no longer mere livestock confined to lifebound spaces. They, too, had a home!

”We have dreams now, but we must work hard so that more of our people can come here!” Long Qian passionately said, her resolve unwavering.

”Sister, will this world truly become a fortuna-class world, comparable to the Midsky Tristars?” Long Chen asked with longing in his eyes.

”It definitely will!” Long Qian gazed at the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb outside the Sky Palace Formation, her eyes filled with certainty.

At that moment, Tianming was piloting the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb into the Sky Palace Formation.

”Greetings, Emperor!”

The voices of over thirty million people echoed through the heavens, forming ripples of fire that swept across the burning clouds above.

”Keep having fun, brothers!” The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb landed at the center of the Sky Palace Formation and opened. Although they hadn’t stolen many cosmic god caeli from the Cosmic God Palace, Tianming had already arranged for some overflowers to enter and study them.

Meanwhile, he, Qingyu, and Wudi took advantage of the Sun’s middlekin star absorption period to enter the three great cultivation chambers holding the galaxy-class caeli.

Moran had been continuously breaking through, and with the support of numerous order fragments, she’d reached the Foundation stage!

”I’m at the minor zenith now, not far from the Overflow stage. Just need to push harder!” His first goal was to become a ten-meter-tall giant. Though his Galactic Emperor combat power already rivaled a tenth-level overflower, he felt uneasy. He deeply sensed that his essence as a lifeform would limit the growth of his omnisentient system.

Foundationeer, overflower, cosmic god... his essence would determine what kind of Galactic Emperor he could become. There was a difference. The same applied to Ying Huo and the others.

”The grand lexicon wonder is the same. I have too few astrons. My wonder has reached its limit and can’t grow any further. For it to break through the ten-thousand-character threshold and become a maniverse-class wonder, I need the quantity of an overflower.” Tianming felt the urgency to break through more than ever.

”My godfather’s so bold. He dares to attempt a galaxy-class order as an eighth-level foundationeer! But that guy’s been soaking in the Flameyellow Coffin, refining himself, and now he even has cosmic god caeli. His progress is insane! The number three genius of the Upper Star Ruin is aggressively catching up to me!” Tianming chuckled.

Before setting off again, he planned to leave some cosmic god caeli on the sun, specifically to cultivate Wudi, the unparalleled talent with a 30-crest beast.

Without his godfather guarding the home front, how could Tianming go on expeditions without worry? One held the fort, the other expanded their territory. With the father guarding the domain, the son could conquer the stars!

Inside the chamber, Tianming closed his eyes, his soul connecting with the galaxy-class order. He was overwhelmed with emotions. At that moment, the sun was undergoing a massive transformation, and thirty million people and beasts burned with passion toward him.

That was how his imperial order grew the fastest. It grew without the need for an overflow fragment. With his thick, powerful order anchoring his body, even if the other eight orders were unstable, they could attach themselves to it to support and control Tianming’s cosmoforce.

”With countless people cultivating alongside me, the power of the Sun gathering within me, and a galaxy-class order and top-tier overflow fragments.... What better resources could I ask for?” At least in a fortuna-class world, no one could compare.

As for Wudi and Qingyu, though they lacked the Emperor System, they still had the impetus of the Sun, the Flameyellow Coffin, and the cosmic god blood of the Original Sin Pool. With fewer and simpler orders, their advancements were even faster than Tianming’s.

”As long as I can keep up with them, I should be stronger than anyone in the Upper Star Ruin!” At his pace, he truly was the third greatest genius.

Time passed day by day as Tianming immersed himself in cultivation.

Then, on a certain day, a massive transformation occurred. The Sun had finally reached a critical threshold and undergone an earth-shattering metamorphosis!

Within Tianming’s order fortress, a twelfth tower was finally built, marking his breakthrough into the major zenith. He was only one step away from reaching the super zenith, where he could embark on the path to the Overflow stage.

”By myself, I should be able to fight a fifth-level overflower. But my techniques are still lacking. I need to figure that out...” he analyzed.

His own breakthrough was a minor event, though; the Sun’s breakthrough was the real defining moment of his journey.

”Let’s go!” Wudi, Qingyu, and the others followed Tianming out of the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb. Tianming’s heart was wildly pounding.

The fortuna-class Sun had been reborn. When they stepped outside, they beheld an infinitely radiant world beneath their feet. Standing on it, they couldn’t fully grasp its magnitude. They could only sense that both its nova source and its size had undergone a complete transformation!

”From a heliacal-class world to the fortuna-class Sun... only two steps remain to reach the former imperial-class!”

What kind of fortune would a fortuna-class Sun bring? Tianming couldn’t wait to find out. He returned to the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, piloting it into the sky. Bursting through the burning clouds, he looked down at the colossal golden-red world below.

”So massive!”

It was enormous!

It was spectacular!

It was increasingly resembling the legendary supreme Sun recorded in the murals of the Sky Palace. However, its size and grandeur were only superficial. The real key was the transformation of its three major formations and the fundamental shift in its essence.

”First, the cloaking formation....” The cloaking formation could be controlled by both the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb and the Flameyellow Coffin. It had visibly separated from the Flameyellow Guardian Formation, becoming a fully independent layer.

”Among all fortuna-class worlds, our cloaking formation must be the very best!” In the dark jungle of the Upper Star Ruin, a hunter’s camouflage was essential.

Of course, the Flameyellow Guard Formation was even more crucial. ”Godfather!” Tianming looked toward Wudi.

Wudi’s red hair fluttered as he solemnly stood on the Flameyellow Coffin, exiting the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb and merging into the endless blazing clouds. His Flameyellow Coffin had also undergone another transformation, with the forms, postures, and auras of the flameyellow fiends etched upon it different from before.

Wudi raised his hand. At once, countless glowing embers scattered from the coffin into the burning clouds. After coming into contact with nova source, they underwent a reaction like sparks igniting a blaze.

A flaming golden legion, a hundred million strong, manifested before Wudi. Each warrior wore blazing armor, possessed three heads and six arms, and radiated a golden divine glow!

Flameyellow fiends? No! Tianming noticed a striking difference. Their chests and backs bore golden-red rings resembling the hell-rings of the devas.

”What’re those?” Tianming asked in shock.

”Heaven-rings!” Wudi finally dropped his serious act and mischievously grinned.

”What do they do?”

Wudi coughed and swept his gaze over his invincible army, then bellowed, ”Brothers, activate the rings!”
