Beastmaster of the Ages Chapter 1278 -Bathhouse Opening

Chapter 1278 – Bathhouse Opening

The abyssal flames beneath them that was the nova source chaotically surged about, exploding from time to time and constantly bombarding their ears with loud noises. Tianming’s flesh and skin was red all over. He tried sticking close to the walls of the fusion formation and attempted to use his black arm to pry at it, but to no avail. Every time he opened a single crack, the divine celestial patterns within were countless. He didn’t understand how many generations of formation gurus it had taken to create a miracle such as this.

“I can’t get out….” He had more or less given up, feeling like an ant standing before an elephant. There was no way the ant could move the huge beast out of the way. He turned his attention back to the ‘sky’ marking on his head. “I wonder if the similarity of this ‘sky’ character with ‘void’ has something to do with the name of the Voidsky Realm, as in void of the sky….”

He felt the stigma with his finger. “Gan Gangan said that it’s a proof of identity that won’t shatter even if my head explodes. The Sky Palace will be able to track down the killer of anyone who bears the stigma, and it even has some emergency function that helps save one’s life. It looks like a really tiny grade-seven or eight formation of sorts.”

That was a rather powerful formation in its own right. Even grand defensive formations like the Azuresoul Palace’s Azuresky Myriadsword Formation wouldn’t have that high a grade, though comparing them was like comparing apples to oranges. The effects and purposes of the formations were different. While there were many formations like the Azuresky Myriadsword Formation in Orderia, there were few Sky Palace stigmas.

Tianming switched to using his black arm to touch the stigma, trying to feel out its special properties. When his red nails tore open a small hole on the stigma, it shook, causing him to feel a little faint. He pulled his finger back. Then the stigma shook and projected something that he eventually made out to be a wooden hut. This was none other than the entrance to the Sky Palace, the place where he’d met the seven people from before. It almost looked real!

“This is….” As he watched, flabbergasted, the wooden hut suddenly rose up toward the fusion formation, fashioning a path out of it. “Can I go out?”

Tianming immediately charged into the pathway, blending into the white mist as he headed upward. The wooden hut that represented the Sky Palace continued rising above him, leading the way like a lantern through the dark woods.

“Wonderful!” the beasts within his lifebound space cheered. Xian Xian excitedly whipped its vines while Ying Huo sprayed fire to celebrate. Meow Meow rested in a corner, seemingly unmoved, while the silver eggs continued lining up to bathe in Lan Huang’s bath corner. Lan Huang’s bathhouse had been incredibly busy since Yin Chen hatched. It looked like it would never run out of business for the rest of its life.

“Roach Bro, come to play,” Xian Xian’s spiritform said as it flew over with its cute, little wings.

“Pointless activity,” Yin Chen said as it continued lining up in an orderly fashion.

“Hmph!” Xian Xian smiled mischievously before it sprayed some sap from its leaves onto a row of silver eggs. Immediately, the eggs broke out of the line and charged into the nine kui seas like desperate people who planned to relieve themselves in bathrooms.

“Stop cutting in line and come one by one. Remember to pay the entrance fee. I also have a flushing service. Do you want to experience it? It’s guaranteed to be good.” The nine kui seas swirled on their own. The little eggs ‘held hands’ as they were flushed completely clean. Tianming simply couldn’t believe these things were the grand beasts of old he had seen in his dreams.

“Looks like they’ll make up for not enjoying their fair share of bliss in their past life in this current life. It’s far more lively than before now, truly wonderful.”

……

The mirror-smooth ground beneath Yu Ziqian began cracking and his face flushed red as he nervously sweated all over. The heavy pressure had forced him to kneel on one knee, from which the cracks sprouted. Blood began seeping into the cracks as his face paled. Even his deep purple lips began losing color as he labored to breathe.

I have to hold on! I’ve never put much effort in life, so this time, I’ll give it my all! He grit his teeth hard, breaking his lip as he bit down on it. However, the pressure he felt didn’t just come from above. Instead, it pressed down on his entire body. Even his organs and spine felt the contortions from the force. He would be crushed into a ball of flesh if it went on.

Dammit, does it have to be like this? My member is turtling back in. Sigh, my balls…. He drew a cold breath from the torture, wondering if he could still get his member to stand up and work when this was all over. Come on, woman, you’re a few centuries old! Why do you still like to crush balls? he thought, not daring to say it out loud.

“Old man… quick, show up! What can we do?” he groaned.

“Continue holding on,” said the portable grandpa’s voice.

The snapping continued. He cried out in agonizing pain as the moments passed. It felt like his nuts had been thoroughly cracked. Oh no… Have I been castrated? He couldn’t hold on any longer.

“Alright, it’s time to show off again,” said the old man. This was what Yu Ziqian had hoped to hear the entire time.

“My power is back!” He hadn’t felt like this since his confrontation with Lan Feilin. “Aaaaagh!” He stuffed his final myriad dao pill into his mouth. Then the energy in his body was unsealed, allowing him to slowly stand up, despite the harsh pressure. If not for the three of you that saved me from using up my power, I never would’ve been able to experience such an outburst of power! Yu Ziqian began tearing up at the thought of Tianming.
