Beastmaster of the Ages

”This is impossible...” Lord Empress Yao said. Yet, the devas that were escaping nonstop from the withering world proved everything! Deep in their hearts, they knew what was going on.

”This is insane!” There was no other word that could quite capture how they felt.

”Report this to the imperials! To the world!” Shen Siming finally said as he snapped out of it. ”The Ninefold Hellstar is being consumed by others... another star!”

”Got it!”

”The five of us have to stop it or capture the one who’s behind this!” Sheng Siming scanned around and saw that many devas were flying toward the black-gold star in an attempt to fight the one who destroyed their home to the death.

”Let’s go!” The five cosmic gods who were thousands of meters in height, all among the most powerful people in their respective maniverse-class worlds, rushed out of the ships toward the Sun.

”The Ninefold Hellstar’s fusion formation is broken! Ming Xingwang might be dead already, so they might have a powerful fighter on their side. Please be careful,” Lord Empress Yao said.

”Since that’s the case, the two of you should keep some distance,” Mystic Qi Zai said. The Sin Pantheon had good relations with the ashuras and understood their weakness. When ashuras went fighting, the sin primalwingers would send out some people to protect them while they sent their powerful warbeasts to do the fighting.

”A low-imperial-class cosmic godbeast that’s of mature fighting age... I haven’t seen something like that for ages,” Shen Siming said.

”Alright.” Lord Empress Yao and Fiend Empress Qing both agreed. They opened both their hands, revealing the fiendsky eyes with more than seventy subeyes in each hand. The next moment, large numbers of imperial-class cosmic godbeasts came flooding out, some of which had come from imperial-class worlds!

Lord Empress Yao had the most cosmic godbeasts of the astral-phoenix variety, numbering more than forty. They looked like galaxies themselves, glowing with brilliant starlight. When they flapped their wings, they looked like the Aeternal Infernal Phoenix from Tianming’s dreamscape! These were famous wildbeasts in imperial-class worlds, called nova phoenixes. Like their names suggested, they were born from within nova source and consumed stars, being able to devour heliacal-class worlds in one go, making them the lord empress’s trump cards.

Fiend Empress Qing, on the other hand, had a more varied selection of cosmic godbeasts. There were more than thirty types among the seventy-two beasts she had released, with the most terrifying one being the myriadworld soulgrass. These plant-beasts had the color of blood and chainsaw-like teeth, somewhat resembling the bloodline wisteria of Ebonia. They had countless branches, and though they had corporeal bodies, most of their innards were composed of a spiritform-like substance, much like orderlies were.

The two empresses backed away into the darkness, their forms fading until they could no longer be seen, while their warbeasts followed the Simings and Mystic Qi Zai to the Sun. Some ashuras that followed them reported what they saw before sending out their warbeasts as well, adding another thousand cosmic godbeasts to the roster. Deva and sin primalwingers also joined the fight! All of them were cosmic gods thousands of meters in height, making for quite the oppressive army.

”Where in the world did this nova source world come from?! To think that it’s able to consume other worlds!” Mystic Qi Zai exclaimed. Her slender frame shuddered as the primalwings on her back spread wide. With a count of more than seventy pairs, she was clearly someone with imperial-lineage talent. The gigantic wings on her back were surrounded in seven-colored flames, with each type of flame burning in skull-like shapes. Clearly, the energies that circulated within the Seven Disaster Worldwings were of the negative, disastrous variety. The slightest corruption from them could result in intoxication and death.

Mystic Qi Zai had the second-most terrifying primalwings after the God of Original Sin. According to rumors, places where the Seven Disaster Worldwings had swept across remained hellscapes unfit for habitation even a thousand years later. The Eightpart Pantheons were indeed wary of the wings’ destructive potential.

She wielded a gray spear that was ten thousand meters in length. That cosmic relic would strike terror into everyone in Myriadsin Capital. It was called Myriadsin Heaven, the incarnation of all the sins in the world, and like the wings, it also carried the aspect of disaster! The primalwinger led near a thousand cosmic godbeasts on the charge, shooting past the two wonderians to take the vanguard position. The imperial-class cosmic godbeasts watched her wings and spear in pensive fear.

”Whoever dares to harm the Ninefold Hellstar has made an enemy of the Eightpart Pantheons! Come and receive your death sentence!” Mystic Qi Zai cried. Though her voice wasn’t loud, it seeped into many ears and seemed to numb the mind.

”Our reinforcements are here!” The grieving devas couldn’t hold back their tears of joy. ”Lady Mystic, beware of Li Tianming!”

”Li Tianming?” She didn’t know who he was. At that moment, the white-haired youth with bicolored eyes stepped out from above the army of beasts, outshining all of them. His black left arm was covered in hexagonal scales and monochrome lightning. His right arm was covered in sword-shaped feathers. Beneath his robes, one could barely make out a dragon leg and another floral leg. There also seemed to be something cloudy hiding beyond his black-gold eyes, not to mention the faint pink glow around his whole body.

”What in the world is this.... He seems rather terrifying, but his body is so small! Is he only just a ninth-level cosmic god?” She had no idea how to rate his combat capabilities at all. ”Have your seniors come. The Eightpart Pantheons wish to negotiate!”

Tianming ignored her completely, focusing instead on the spear in her hand. ”You even brought the worldcore of Myriadsin Capital here, I see.”

Mystic Qi Zai’s entire body shook from the words alone. ”What are you talking about?”

”I have to thank you!” Tianming drew his swords and instantly erupted into a flurry of slashes. Crushdragon, Worldfall!

”What insane might....” Her Seven Disaster Worldwings shattered right away as the Grand-Orient Sword grazed Myriadsin Heaven aside and slashed into her shoulder, going all the way and bisecting her! All the onlookers could swear that they felt the cut too!
