Beastmaster of the Ages

Starmoon Haven.

BOOM!

A thunderous roar shook the fortuna-class world. The Starmoon Guard Formation trembled, and the entire star vibrated following a dense rain of fire.

The previous middlekin-star explosion had damaged the fusion formation, and part of the land and oceans had exploded. Countless cities and towns had been reduced to rubble, and a large number of pantheons were annihilated. But despite suffering such an obvious and catastrophic attack, the cosmic gods of the Midsky Tristars suppressed the incident and prohibited any further dissemination of the news. Judging by their actions, they feared they would be held accountable and hoped to make amends and cover up the incident by killing Tianming and Long Xing.

However, their actions couldn’t be hidden from Yin Chen. Not to mention, more powerful cosmic gods would soon arrive.

”As the saying goes, heaven is high and the emperor is far away. It happens everywhere, but I didn’t expect to see it in the Upper Star Ruin....”

In terms of combat power, they had a clear advantage over the fifty cosmic gods of the Midsky Tristars, though they were restricted by the heavenly oath. They had been about to succeed only to be caught off guard by Long Xing. How could they concede defeat when they still had the Worldgazer Skyeye in hand? The starlords’ return gave them confidence, and Tianming wanted them like that.

Thus, he struck again, catching them completely unawares. The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb charged toward Starmoon Haven as another blast of Manicrest Dragonsource slammed into the star. A resounding explosion that lit up the heavens ensued. Although the attack wasn’t cataclysmic, it was still a great insult. Rumbling vibrations sent Starmoon Haven quaking, affecting continents and oceans alike. Like frightened birds, members of the Eightpart Pantheons within numerous cities activated their formations once more.

It was yet another day of being forced into a star-wide lockdown by two slaves. The rage within them consumed their hearts!

Three more blasts of Manicrest Dragonsource collided with the star, like slaps across the cosmic gods’ faces—Xing Zhan included. In fact, Long Xing’s rescue meant that they no longer had to worry about another surprise attack on the city.

”They dare attack again?” The cosmic gods rushed toward the Starhaven Guard Formation, coldly glaring at the tomb from within the colorful nebula.

”Don’t be hasty. It might be a trap,” Mo Shen said, his voice grave.

They seemed to have regained their composure after suffering such heavy losses.

Tianming launched another blast aimed right next to them. The nova source explosion sent the cosmic gods tumbling backward in utter disgrace.

”Dammit! Use the Worldgazer Skyeye to locate Long Xing!”

Still, they endured.

Light burst from the Worldgazer Skyeye, locking on to Long Xing within the tomb.

”They’re both here?”

The information left them speechless. Long Xing and Tianming were their biggest concerns. In their eyes, the other slaves were nothing more than a mob. Defeating the two slaves in the astralship would mean defeating them all. And right now, those very formidable enemies were dangling before their eyes.

”That astralship’s the reason Li Tianming has the courage to act like this. Forget about targeting them. If we attack the astralship together, neither he nor the injured Long Xing will be able to escape...” Yanri Huang said.

They never could have imagined that Tianming possessed the Flameyellow Imperial Star and the cosmic god blood of their ancestors. Nor could they have predicted Long Xing’s speedy recovery. Little time had passed since Tianming and Long Xing had escaped from Starmoon Haven.

Even Xing Zhan had only just restored his human form! ”He’s acting strangely. Let’s wait and see.” He was apprehensive.

”How frustrating! They’re clearly provoking us, but we’re too afraid to do anything?!” Yanri Xun shook her head.

”What’re we waiting for? Shouldn’t we at least go after them? He killed Male Mo! My parents will soon arrive with the cosmic gods of Wondersky Haven. The least we can do is delay them!” Female Mo urged with pain and determination in her voice.

The couple was connected; she’d been in agony from the moment Male Mo’s soul had been destroyed and the resentment in her heart was at its peak. She would have attacked them herself if it weren’t for the other cosmic gods of Starmoon Haven.

Tianming had long noticed them. ”They’re still holding back?” he sneered. Despite their mental fortitude, he had plenty of ways to lure them out.

At that moment, the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb fell back. The mouth of one of the dragon heads opened with a loud bang and Tianming emerged holding seven fragments of a cosmic god essence. They were none other than the remains of Fentian He!

Tianming grinned as he looked straight at the cosmic gods of Starmoon Haven, not saying a word. Quadform Radixbreath emanated from him and quickly spread toward the first fragment of Fen Tianhe’s cosmic god essence, instantly shattering it.

”What’re you doing? Save me!” Fentian He roared with all his might.

The cosmic gods’ gazes turned even colder at the sight, their bodies bursting with starlight—a clear sign of rage.

Scornfully laughing, Tianming continued retreating and incinerated the next fragment. Fentian He’s miserable screams filled the air as his cosmic god essence gradually turned to ash.

”Save me! Save me! He’s got no other tricks left. He’s just trying to piss you off!” Fentian He cried to save his own life, though he knew nothing. After all, he had been confined in the depths of the tomb the entire time.

”What’re we waiting for? So what if we can’t catch him? We should at least try! Fentian He’s almost dead!” Female Mo stared at the group of cosmic gods in disbelief.

Because they had always led a dissolute life with few opponents, they were unsure in their convictions against a ruthless enemy.

Soon, Tianming had destroyed the sixth fragment of Fentian He’s cosmic god essence and was so far away that the others could barely see him.

”What a joke! They’re nothing but a bunch of cowardly losers! I knew they’d be scared shitless if I provoked them! Hahaha...” Tianming laughed as he incinerated Fentian He’s last fragment.

”You—!” Fentian He wailed in despair, enraged by the “calm” and “steady” group of cosmic gods.

Thus, the life of the youngest cosmic god of Starmoon Haven had come to a humiliating end. Though consumed with rage, Mo Shen, Yanri Huang, Xing Zhan, and the rest remained as still as rocks, fearing a conspiracy.

”That’s all you’ve got? Cosmic gods of Starmoon Haven? Sundown Pantheon? Starfall Pantheon? You’re all cowards!” Female Mo erupted in a fury before Tianming could mock them.
