Beastmaster of the Ages

Mu Qingqing could tell that Tianming was truly unlike how he used to be.

”How is that? I thought you were immovable!” Tianming stepped on Lin Wanjun’s cosmic-god essence and bore a hole into it with the hard Grand-Orient Sword, causing him to shriek in pain. Tianming had thought that he would be able to fight eight levels above him in the Realm of Chaos. Lin Wanjun was a true genius too. But this fight had proven that while Tianming only had a body of four thousand meters in height, he should be able to fight geniuses from the Realm of Chaos ten levels above. With the skypole stars, he didn’t even have to worry about enemy attacks and could be even more ferocious in his approach. There should definitely be those who were stronger than Lin Wanjun under the age of five hundred too.

”So what if you defeated me? It’s not fair! You’re a hundred thousand years older than I am! You’re not human! You’re the biggest joke in Nullity!” Lin Wanjun cursed as he cried. He was a shameless prick, a fitting match for the Lin Xiaoting of Lightning Manor.

”That’s right, old fart! Let him go!”

”Marshal Jun is the future of Violetblitz! Touching him is akin to tearing apart the deal we have with your dad! You will suffer the consequences!”

Liu Xiaoyang and the rest huddled together to puff themselves up. As they complained, they tried to gather the thousands of others from Violetblitz across the battlefield. All of them glared angrily at Tianming as if they weren’t afraid in the slightest.

”Deal? I don’t know about that. If there was a deal to begin with, why would you dare to capture our people?” Tianming coldly said.

”Just let Marshal Jun go for now or you’ll be in great trouble. There’s so many of us here and we’ll be able to stop you from leaving!” Liu Xiaoyang said.

”And our reinforcements are almost here. Marshal Jun’s parents are also nearby!” the others threatened.

”If you want him released, you should release them first,” Tianming said as he pushed the sword deeper into the essence, causing Lin Wanjun to cry out even louder.

”No! We release them at the same time!” Liu Xiaoyang said through grit teeth.

”Same time?” Tianming smirked and had Bai Ling who was in the sword make its move, infusing soul power into the essence directly and making Lin Wanjun cry out even more.

”Liu Xiaoyang, release them!” Liu Wanjun was going mad with pain.

”Alright!” Liu Xiaoyang had no choice but to release Mu Ziyan and the rest. The members of the Mu Clan carried their fallen comrades’ essence and went to Tianming. Though temporarily out of danger, they had suffered quite a bit of hardship. Coupled with the tens of thousands of cosmic gods that were gathering, they were worried that they would be attacked once Lin Wanjun was released.

”Ouch... Li Tianming, it’s your turn to let me go,” Lin Wanjun said. He really seemed fearful, though he recovered somewhat when he assessed the situation. ”Violetblitz has a decent relation with Nullity, so let’s all take a step back, alright? I apologize for my rudeness towards you.”

”Decent relations, huh?” Tianming turned to look at Mu Ziyan.

”Grandaunt, they were the ones who violated the deal and attacked us. They... they...” Mu Ziyan broke into tears. ”Lin Wanjun even killed up to a hundred of us!” Their group used to have more than two hundred, but only a hundred remained including those that survived in essence form.

Tianming’s expression darkened. ”Is that true?”

”Yes, Granduncle!” Mu Ziyan said.

”That’s going too far...” Mu Qingqing looked at Lin Wanjun’s essence. ”How would you explain this?”

Lin Wanjun had no choice but to admit it. ”No explanation needed. I killed them, there’s that. Release me now or you won’t be able to leave! Li Tianming might have his turtle shell, but not the rest of you. Don’t make me kill all of you!”

”Kill all of us?” Tianming smirked and addressed the ten thousand cosmic gods around him. ”Let it be known that Li Tianming repays everything a hundredfold. You dared to kill a hundred of us from Nullity, right?”

Tianming pierced his sword deep and unleashed all his power before Lin Wanjun could say ’so what?’, destroying his essence completely! Lin Wanjun died in horrible disbelief, stunning Liu Xiaoyang and the rest. Given Lin Wanjun’s talent, he had at least two hundred thousand years of life ahead of him and had a bright future. Currently, he was nothing but an infant, yet he was killed just like that! How would the seniors and elites of Violetblitz see this? How dare the Skyplunder imperial son act so impudently?!

Liu Xiaoyang pointed at Tianming and cried, ”It’s over for you! You just started a war!” The cosmic gods around them knew that they no longer had to hold back now that Tianming had gotten rid of the hostage.

”Kill them! Kill!” Liu Xiaoyang yelled. ”So what if you have skypole stars? We’ll kill everyone else around you!”

The ten thousand cosmic gods rushed in angrily. Mu Ziyan and the rest were panicking and subconsciously huddled towards Tianming.

”You’re repaying them a hundredfold?” Mu Qingqing stared at Tianming blankly. Didn’t that mean that he would be killing ten thousand of them?

Tianming smacked his chest and said, ”Xi Xi, show them what a one-man army looks like.”

”Okay.” The deadfish eye on Tianming’s chest turned into an 18-fold hell-ring! Seven folds opened up, only one fewer than when Tianming was at the peak of using omnisentient threads. Then, smoke poured out endlessly from Tianming’s chest, covering the entire battlefield in dark clouds that turned into ghastly ghouls! Three hundred million ghouls appeared in the air and howled, giving the Violetblitz cosmic gods sinister looks.

”Ughh...” Liu Xiaoyang and the rest were so shocked that they slumped to the ground. What in the world was that? They had been too young to recall how it felt to be dominated by the Skyplunder imperial son.

Tianming waved his finger and said, ”Kill all of them! Spare nobody!”
