Beastmaster of the Ages

Lin Xiaoting turned into the Three-Eyed Lightning Death Constellation. When he came down on Tianming with brute violence, countless cosmic gods around them cheered for it. Their imperial son’s cosmic constellation, cosmic artifacts and cosmic arts were all top grade in the universe! They could feel the sheer combined power shaking the entire plaza, turning it into a universe of lightning. Surely that was enough to suppress Tianming.

However, the Fiendsky Arm’s strike caused all the spectators to lose their minds.

”Is that Constellationsteal? That’s the move the sky plunderers used!”

”He really used it?! What a shameless wretch!”

”Li Tianzi and Li Muyang both used it before. Who knew that Li Tianming had learned it too?”

”The sky plunderers truly are a disgusting, shameless race! They do not deserve to live!”

The violetblitzians, torchdragonoids and aquamars were united on those opinions. Their eyes widened with disbelief at how Tianming had learned the infamously shameless move of the sky plunderers! Li Tianzi had been famous for using that terrifying skill against the enemies of Nullity. This time around, it was Tianming’s turn to use it against the imperial son of Violetblitz, Lin Xiaoting!

Imperator Jian and Imperator Ji were initially calm, but upon seeing the move, their expressions changed. Nobody expected things to play out that way.

”Constellationsteal? He has quite a trick up his sleeves. No wonder he decided to barge into our starcage,” Imperator Jian said with a smirk. He didn’t seem worried for Lin Xiaoting at all. Clearly, there was something he was confident in.

Tianming couldn’t care less what that was. As the boundless information about the cosmic constellation flooded into him, he felt like he had entered a sea of stars. The boundless Three-Eyed Lightning Death Constellation formed a connection with him and rapidly expanded in size.

Lin Xiaoting’s constellation form began to crumble and reform into his cosmic-god form. There was nothing but disbelief on his face. With his constellation gone, his powerful attack was also neutered so badly that it barely made a dent in Tianming’s totem sword formation. The worst was yet to come.

”Watch this! Three-Eyed Lightning Death Constellation!” Tianming’s white hair flared out as the middlekin astrons that made up his body turned into stars and spread out far and wide. Then, a constellation just like Lin Xiaoting’s formed above Myriadbolt Plaza. There were three lightning nebulae that resembled three eyes, all looking down on the crushed Lin Xiaoting. The power of the boundless cosmic constellation caused Tianming’s cosmoforce to rise and surge.

”Shameless thief!” Lin Xiaoting was so mad that his nose was about to fly off at the sight of his familiar constellation. His massive face almost seemed to contort. ”Die!”

Once more, he used his spear, Kun Sky Myriadsource Blitz, to attack. The cosmic relic was made from ten thousand lightning bolts. When he struck, it looked as if ten thousand bolts of lightning shot towards Tianming. He used it to execute the second spear strike of Violetblitz Blast Lightningcage, Myriadbolt Eradication!

The many afterimages of lightning spears formed together into a single massive spear shadow packing more power than the sum of its parts! A single bolt spear soared through the sky, seemingly able to pierce through everything in the known universe.

Yet, Tianming’s constellation gave him so much cosmoforce that he was able to suppress Lin Xiaoting rather well. His decapath era godswords attacked in tandem with the Grand-Orient Sword. ”Ninefirm Starfall Exorcism!”

This was a top cosmic art of the Starfall Pantheon. Its second strike, Ninefirm Calamity, charged up immensely with might. The nine firmaments represented the power of Ninefirm Imperius, whereas the calamities represented hardship and tribulation.

The first wave of strikes was supported by the power of the constellation, while the second wave was packed with insights from the lifesbane order. Even though the power of orders was limited heavily in the Realm of Chaos, the Aeonic Grandbane had been with Tianming his whole life. His understanding of this power’s intricacies far outstripped everyone else’s.

The power of the best cosmic art of the Starfall Pantheon reached its apex in Tianming’s hands. Ninefirm Calamity fused the power of the star and tribulations, unleashing nine powerful sword beams in quick succession! The first strike easily shattered Lin Xiaoting’s Myriadbolt Eradication, shattering the lightning spear with a loud bang. The power of Tianming’s three soulbeasts traveled along the sword beam and struck Lin Xiaoting squarely, severing his 90-thousand-meter body into two.

The second slash went through his chest. The third separated his head from his upper torso. Then came the fourth to ninth sword beams , growing stronger slash after slash. Once all nine slashes were unleashed, Lin Xiaoting’s body was cut into ten discrete pieces. It disintegrated completely, leaving him in an incredibly injured state.

All the lightning winked out. It was as if a powerful lightning god had met its doom. Lin Xiaoting struggled to hold onto his human form despite being cut into many pieces.

There was nothing but absolute silence. Not a single soul dared to utter a sound at the sight of Tianming’s nine slashes. The cosmic gods merely stared at him blankly.

”The Skyplunder imperial son is quite the scary fellow... I thought that killing Long Xuanzhao would be his limit, but then...”

”Scary my ass! He’s nothing but a shameless wretch who steals constellations! What’s the power in that?!”

”That’s right. He’s nothing but a lowly thief who doesn’t dare to fight head-on!”

”I thought we would be able to win this time around. Who knew that Li Tianming would be so hard to deal with.”

”What’s Lin Xiaoting doing? He didn’t appear to do any better than our imperial son of Aquamarine.”

”He was defeated in his own territory. How embarrassing.”

The cosmic gods within the imperial capital of Violetblitz felt chills down their spine. Though the torchdragonoids and aquamars there weren’t happy about it either, they at least felt better about the humiliating defeats of their representatives. Their imperial sons hadn’t been trash. Tianming was simply too much of a monster.

The violetblitzians who had been cheering for Lin Xiaoting lost their voices completely and felt a phantom sting on their faces. The imperial son they had been so proud of was defeated by Tianming. This was the unshakeable truth.

Lin Xiaoting heard the chatter of the cosmic gods and saw their disappointed looks, feeling enraged to the limit. ”No... This can’t be it... How could they be disappointed in me? How could they be so cold to me? They’re calling me the shame of Violetblitz? Impossible! Li Tianming, I want you dead!”

His eyes flared with rage and lightning as he lost his reason and took out a bottle containing blood-colored liquid and drained it clean.
