Beastmaster of the Ages

Seeing Wudi fuse with the coffin and turn into a massive giant elicited wild cheers from the rest of the flameyellow divinities. His towering bronze body was worshiped just like a divine idol.

Wudi wasn’t the least bit worried that he would get hurt. In fact, he was afraid that Imperator Shen wouldn’t attack him. ”Is that all you got? Why are you as weak as a little chicken? You’re a man! Don’t tell me your wife never complained about your stamina before. Also, you, pretty one, stop staring at me with such lustful eyes and come straight to me! Put some force into it!”

His mockery enraged the imperator couple even more. All of the wonderians nearby felt humiliated just hearing it and immediately burst into anger. They wanted more than anything to completely tear down the massive bronze man!

Hehe, Tianming, my son, I’ve drawn so much of the hate away from you, so the pressure on you should’ve gotten lighter. Wudi stood proudly while the wonderians continued to attack him. He wanted to make sure that Imperator Shen stayed near him for as long as possible.

After his cultivation grew, he achieved an undying state once he fused with the coffin. Imperator Shen’s power alone wasn’t able to kill him that quickly. While Wudi wasn’t really able to fight back either, he needed only to keep them from leaving.

The imperator couple glared coldly at him, clearly aware about his objective. Yet, they didn’t seem to mind.

”Do you think this jester act of yours is impressive?” the male Imperator Shen said. His killing intent spiked as he once more willed Immortal Eternity with his powerful wonder armaments to unleash even more sword ki attacks on Wudi. The female imperator used her wonder gates to construct a formation that pinned Wudi down and applied pressure. Even though their attacks constantly got blocked, they didn’t look like they were in any rush whatsoever.

Wudi decided to observe his surroundings given how relaxed he was. Seems like they have another trump card. Tianming, you need to be careful.

He was still quite worried about the whole situation. According to Yin Chen, Tian Jiu would definitely be part of this attack as well. Who knew which side she was on this time around? Not to mention, their strongest foe, Shen Wu, could appear on the battlefield at any moment with the sole objective of killing Tianming. Even if Wudi managed to hold Imperator Shen back, he knew that Tianming would be facing off against far more dangerous foes than him.

The flameyellow divinities, on the other hand, fought with immense fervor after seeing Wudi transform.

”Hahaha! Number one in the universe, they said. Is this all you got?”

”You can’t even defeat us when you’re fighting two on one! How embarrassing!”

”Seems like the wonderians were nothing to fear after all!”

”The Flameyellow shall never be defeated!”

Their morale soared as they joined the countless flameyellow imperial fiends and ghouls in a second wave of attacks. The flaming-sword formation went in for another slash at the inverted pyramid wonder formation with such force that they managed to push back against the so-called number-one army of the universe! Countless people witnessed the rising of the flameyellow divinities. All of them displayed never-before-seen combat power.

Right at that moment, a silver sword flash suddenly appeared in the universe! It instantly pierced through all of the cavalry troops of the flameyellow divinities, separating the flaming-sword formation into two and eradicating all the flameyellow divinities in its path! It was such a stunning sight that it drew the attention of countless fighters.

Wudi knew that Shen Wu had finally made an appearance! ”So, that ancient undead being finally showed up! How dare they strike against normal cosmic gods?”

Typically, generals fought other generals while normal troops fought other normal troops in wars of the Realm of Order. Even imperatores of the Eightpart Pantheons seldom attacked normal cosmic gods during the course of battle unless their counterparts of the opposing side had been wiped out.

Yet, Shen Wu had no qualms about doing so just like the Adjudicator Jie Ba in the Realm of Chaos. It was clear what Shen Wu’s motive was: to lure out Tianming!

The wonderians cheered when they saw the destruction wrought by the silver sword flash. This was a sign that a mighty Aeternal Being had graced the battlefield, marking the death of the Flameyellow and Tianming!

The silver sword flash slowed down and took the form of a mercurial woman. Silver light flowed all throughout her body. Her silver hair fluttered in ethereal fashion and her eyes were so cold that they contained not a single trace of emotion. Her silver sword flashed once more, reducing the surrounding flameyellow divinities to corpses.

”Stop!” came a loud bellow. A white-haired cosmic god standing 70 thousand meters tall came charging explosively. This was none other than Tianming!

Though he looked rather petite compared to the silver-haired woman, his appearance sparked an even stronger fighting spirit among the flameyellow divinities. It wasn’t just the ones at the Flameyellow Imperial Star. Every flameyellow descendant across the Upper Star Ruin experienced a sudden surge in their will. Countless omnisentient threads linked to Tianming, strengthening him to a degree never before reached.

He was going to face off against Shen Wu, an Undying Aeternal far more powerful than imperatores! All attention was focused on Tianming. Countless flameyellow descendants felt that they had fused with Tianming, becoming a part of him. The burning will of the Flameyellow legacy surged within him, making him the brightest object in the surrounding astralscape!

He was filled with rage at the sight of tens of millions of his subjects slaughtered by the silver sword ki. Then, he glared at the silver-haired woman.

”Li Tianming, you’re finally coming out of your shell.” Shen Wu snickered. silver liquid flowing within her eyes, forming sword ki around her body nonstop. Her being itself resembled a sword.

”Pots and kettles. You’re the one who’s been hiding in the background the whole time. I didn’t know universes could be burglared, but I know now after seeing a foreign invader like you.”

”Your words are pointless. There’s nowhere you can escape to.” Shen Wu spoke without the slightest hint of emotion. She didn’t even seem delighted to see Tianming finally show himself. Pure, cold killing intent merely layered atop one another, exuding from her body.
