Beastmaster of the Ages

Everyone beside Tianming was plunged under immense pressure.

Jiang Qingluan had chosen to accompany him unto death, while Imperator Cheng, Sage Chen, and Sage Xing all wore expressions of blazing resolve. Because the entire Vermilion Bird Starcage no longer had any path of retreat!

Zi Zhen’s eyes turned icy as they fixed on the Adjudicator and the four Yueling imperatores. Imperator Long’s mockery of Tianming and their reverent admiration toward the Adjudicator had completely ignited her inner fury.

Anyone who dared to harm Tianming would face her boundless wrath. Ignore everything else, and kill, kill, kill! This was Zi Zhen’s creed of life!

“What, angry now? Have you finally felt your own powerlessness?” Imperator Long looked down at Zi Zhen like an empress gazing upon a sinner.

“Nothing more than impotent rage,” the Adjudicator said calmly. “Li Tianming is mine. Deal with the riff-raff.”

“As you command, Adjudicator.” Imperator Long inclined her head, before turning to Zi Zhen. “You will die by my hand today. Consider it an honor.”

“Imperator Zhu, your chance to impress the Adjudicator has arrived. Join us to strike down Imperator Cheng,” said Imperator Ji. Their overwhelming numbers gave them the privilege of choosing their opponents!

Imperator Zhu’s confidence resurfaced and he focused on Imperator Cheng. “Jiang Cheng, you and I can be considered old rivals. I never imagined our story would end like this today...”

“Enough nonsense. All of you, attack together and kill that old man quickly!” Imperator Long said impatiently. She was the first to move, gunning straight for Zi Zhen like a meteor streaking across the heavens.

At the same time, Imperator Ji, Imperator Tu, and Imperator Tong joined forces with Imperator Zhu to surround Imperator Cheng. Their goal was simple: to slay Imperator Cheng as quickly as possible.

This was the fastest way to end the battle. Imperator Cheng’s death would shatter his forces and cost them the Vermilion Bird Starsource.

The four struck together, opening with lethal attacks.

“Father!” Jiang Qingluan cried out upon seeing this.

She hated her uselessness.

She hated the Adjudicator.

She hated the Yueling Starcage!

“Imperial Daughter, be careful!” Sage Chen and Sage Xing both changed expressions. They knew neither they nor Jiang Qingluan could help in this situation. Staying behind would only distract the fighters.

Sage Chen used a surge of cosmoforce to pull Jiang Qingluan back with him, while Sage Xing clenched his teeth as he stared at the battlefield, feeling as though his boiling blood had nowhere to vent.

Now, they too felt hatred. Could today truly be the end of Vermilion Bird and the sky plunderers?

All the Vermilion Bird cosmic gods felt the same.

Zi Zhen activated her seventh hall eye and transformed. Her spikes, claws, and bladed tail burst forth, accompanied by a pair of dark red demonic wings unfurling from her back!

She shot forward and slammed into Imperator Long. Despite her physical prowess, Imperator Long lived up to being the strongest and most gifted among her sisters. Black-and-gold cosmoforce met Zi Zhen violently, both evenly matched.

The very first clash produced unimaginable shockwaves enough to devastate heaven and earth!

And at the center of this starry battlefield, the two most eye-catching figures finally clashed.

“The Adjudicator, the ruler of the Realm of Chaos?” Tianming showed no fear at all.

He sneered. The Adjudicator was a nice title, but this was really the Eighth of the Number Monsters.

“Little Li, we took down Huang Qi. Time to work on the rest of the set!” Bai Ye popped out, looking down on the enemy.

“Who cares what it is? Let’s rush it first!” Ying Huo remained as fearless as ever.

“If we need to run, shout,” Meow Meow reminded.

“This time... we are... not running,” Yin Chen’s resolute voice rang out. It had the clearest view of the battlefield and could clearly see the cosmic gods of Vermilion Bird fighting fearlessly, sacrificing their lives with unmatched valor!

If Tianming retreated this time...

It had to be said every one of Tianming’s Primordial Chaos Beast was utterly fearless.

“Today, we fight side by side to the death once again...” Tianming’s eyes flashed like lightning, his will unshakable. No matter what, bowing to such a thing was absolutely impossible!

“Kill!” Bai Ling and Bai Feng joined Bai Ye to form three churning clouds above Tianming’s head.

As long as they dealt with the Adjudicator, what awaited them next would be a clear path. No matter how difficult it was, they would not retreat.

“Where exactly do we Primordial Chaos Beast come from?

“And what kind of place is that Realm of Worldgazing?

“Kill him and we will find out!”

Bai Feng’s desire was the fiercest of all.

The three Sixths gathered together, pouring the most terrifying soul-slaying power into Tianming’s sword.

“Ants. Ridiculous.” Seeing this, the Adjudicator let out an amused chuckle.

One of his crimson vortexes erupted with red light that formed a colossal blood-colored tombstone that spanned the starry sky as it attempted to bury Tianming beneath it!
