Beastmaster of the Ages Chapter 1909

Chapter 1909

According to the understanding of the people in the Mysterium Cluster, the only deific-class worlds were the powerful worlds located at the center of the universe. If even they weren’t aware of imperial-class worlds, one would have to wonder how powerful they truly were. Then again, Tianming didn’t think the Mysterium Cluster was the center of the universe at all, so he didn’t hold their prejudices.

“The one fact we should never doubt is the endless vastness of the universe and the infinite length of time!” Everyone that looked up at the sky would see how breathtaking the universe was. The Flameyellow Imperial Star alone had already taken Tianming aback.

The words on the first page of the tome depicted the construction of the Sky Plundering Palace. There were only a few pages in the Sky Plundering Tome, each of which only had a few short passages, so it would take a lot of pondering for him to fully understand the scope of what had been written. The second page had about the same number of words.

“Two eras had the flameyellow divinities taken… for the construction of the Flameyellow Firmament. To power and dominance they had risen…. Being subordinate to us, inherited our will to bring prosperity to the universe they have!”

That page was much easier to interpret. The powerful flameyellow divinities were just a subordinate faction of the sky plunderers, which went to show how powerful the sky plunderers really were. The first page detailed how they were invited over to the Flameyellow Imperial Star. In other words, the flameyellow divinities had asked them for protection.

Tianming flipped to the third page and things suddenly seemed to change. “The twilight of the tenth era, the Era of Primordial Antiquity…. The prosperity of the flameyellow divinities invert to ruin… powerful internal strife… dualgod bloodline waning… conflicts mounting… ravaging countless lives… no longer under rule of my race…. Internal strife concluded after the fall of the imperial star… the core flameyellow divinities a fate of extinction experienced… the dualgod bloodline forever extinguished… my race… left with no choice but to abandon the Flameyellow Imperial Star… left the spirit of our people behind to protect the fallen star world….”

The third page had much more content than those before it. He was quite surprised when he read it. While the description of that page seemed bleak, it was clear how terrifying that war must have been for a star world to fall so far in the aftermath, and it was allegedly due to internal strife. That could only mean the rise of a new faction. There seemed to be many underlying factors, but as someone so far distanced from past events, Tianming could only use his imagination to fill in the blanks. Though he was still befuddled, he had a rough guess about what had happened.

Impatiently, he turned to the last page. “The racial consciousness of the sky plunderers… turned into the wooden building… purpose: leading the denizens of the fallen world… into a new era…. Flameyellow Imperial Star shall henceforth ‘the sun’ be called… distancing from the Flameyellow Firmament… the dualgod bloodline was into two split… never to return…. Hope and solace for… what remains of Flameyellow… to enjoy a time of restful peace before… nova source runs out…”

It seemed that his guesses had been confirmed by the contents of the last page.

“Dammit!” Ying Huo snapped. “I discovered a huge secret! The imperial-class world, Flameyellow Imperial Star, is the sun! It’s Orderia! I’m a genius!”

Tianming watched it jump about like a madman.

“Really? Chicken Bro, you’re a genius!” Lan Huang said.

“Yeah! Little Li, on the other hand, just stood there dumbfounded the entire time,” Xian Xian said.

Tianming swore he would lose his mind if he spent more time with this lot of idiots. That aside, he couldn’t calm down after learning what he had. He even found it rather hard to believe. “The sun used to be an imperial-class world? So the Flameyellow Imperial Star devolved into Orderia? What about its astralguard and fusion formations? Aren’t they only heliacal class?”

When he closed the tome, he realized there were more words on the other side. “For the peace of the survivors… a spark of the dualgod bloodline was left…. My people have for the fallen imperial star… heliacal-class fusion and astralguard formations constructed… over the remains of the Flameyellow Guard Formation and the Flameyellow Fusion Formation… to protect the surviving remnants and disguise the imperial star’s true form….

“The core of these heliacal-class formations… the form of the solar core took… two parts of one whole… one half is held in the new Sky Palace the wooden building picked… other half controlled by the surviving remnants…. Though the imperial star has fallen… the original fusion formation persists undamaged…. The cores of both of those original formations, the Flameyellow Coffin and Ninedragon Cruiser, in the imperial star remain…. Should one of my kind this place arrive… ruin not the peaceful rest of these survivors! Leave these two original formations untouched!”

Tianming understood it all now. The original two formations of the Flameyellow Imperial Star referred to the Flameyellow Fusion Formation and the Flameyellow Guard Formation. The astralguard and fusion formations of the current sun had been created by the sky plunderers for the survivors of the internal conflict. Half of the solar core remained in the Sky Palace while the other half was in the possession of the celestial orderians, which lined up with what was stated in the tome.

In other words, the people of the Sky Plundering Palace had completely left after the imperial star fell. All they left were the wooden building—which was the soul and intent of the sky plunderers—and a new Sky Palace that would carry on their will to ensure a stable and peaceful final era for the surviving denizens of the sun. In other words, the survivors never had a Sky Plundering Palace, only a Sky Palace. The sky plunderers were long gone. It had been millions of years since the sun had taken its current form. Still agitated by learning the truth, Tianming flipped through the tome a few more times.

“From the records, it sounds like my people are powerful, but benevolent. After the fall of the imperial star, they still protected the remnants of its people and warned future generations to not disturb the peace.” Tianming would never be able to reach out to any other sky plunderers, if they still existed. This tome and its writer, Li Qingwan, were the only links he had with his bloodline.

Plundering didn’t sound like something to be proud of, but their way of justice was something Tianming strove for. It wasn’t just a mistaken feeling—he really felt it inside himself! The final words that begged for the peace to be undisturbed was a sign of trust from his forebears. The sun was what the Flameyellow Imperial Star had fallen to, which explained many things. He got his feelings in order before tackling his former doubts with what he had learned.
