Beastmaster of the Ages Chapter 2040

Chapter 2040

The sun had only just started moving when the Primordial Gate changed. Tianming had started the move as gently as he could, yet everyone on the surface could feel the strong rumbles. Still, it wasn’t nearly comparable to the tremors the two Skywolf stars must have experienced. They all felt their hearts shake as they looked at the sky; even though the flaming clouds blocked out the astralscape above, they could imagine how it looked. They were on a voyage through the sea of stars! Were they escaping certain death or heading toward a brighter future? It was a question that heavily weighed on everyone’s minds.

While their future was incredibly uncertain, they felt the ambition in Tianming’s heart through the Omnisentient Threads that kept increasing in number. As such, they were mostly in high spirits. Tianming was the ruler of the sun, and that brought them endless hope. Even many celestial orderians began letting go of their previously held prejudices, integrating well into the new dynasty.

“Flameyellow Continent, chaos skyjail, farewell!” Tianming gave the world one last longing look. While the people of the continent had been moved, it was still illuminated by the Divine Moon Realm that’d been moved over the top of the chaos skyjail. That way, the people of the Decimo Dao Nation would still have light to subsist on.

As he moved the Divine Moon Realm, Tianming had brought a friend back with him: Huiye Shi. She was a good friend that had come to his aid quite a lot, so he had her live with Jiang Qingluan, Xuanyuan Muxue, and the rest.

The girl’s personality hadn’t changed one bit. The moment she arrived, she said, “Oh, I see what you’re doing. These girls and I are all your spares, eh?”

“Get your head out of the gutter!” Tianming snapped.

“Just play along! I won’t be able to integrate well otherwise!” Huiye Shi shyly said.

Just like that, the grand reunion in the sun was complete. Apart from Ye Shaoqing, every friend of Tianming’s from the Flameyellow Continent to the Divine Moon Realm had been gathered together. All that was left was Violetglory.

The sun gradually increased in speed, and the faster it got, the more obstacles it ran into. As such, it was necessary to put up the Flameyellow Guard Formation to crush any debris in the path of the sun. As the speed began stabilizing, people stopped feeling the movement. When the sun reached its maximum speed, it was around half as fast as the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb. By Tianming’s estimation, they would reach Violetglory within six months. Normally, star worlds would never be able to keep up with divine astralships.

“Ling’er, wait for me!” He would be going to Primary along the way as well. Tianming had notified Xiaoxiao of the impending visit and had her ask all the primalwingers to make preparations to migrate. They had always wanted a world of their own to settle on as well, since their own was on its way to certain destruction.

The primalwingers now considered Feiling their living god, and Xiaoxiao her messenger, so she had quite a lot of authority. While their population wasn’t that large, relatively speaking, there were still around two hundred billion of them. If their migration was successful, the sun’s population would grow to two trillion, encompassing beastmasters, totemancers, primalwingers, and even some specters. It was a diverse world indeed.

This new super-enhanced base camp would be the core foundation for Tianming to cultivate his Imperial Will on. With the aid of all his subjects, his prowess rapidly grew. But right as he was reaching a peak, the changes in Lingfeng had interrupted everything.

Tianming had been in the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb when Yin Chen suddenly sent word that a monster emerged from the Xenoworld Gate and captured Lingfeng and the Soulfiend! As the gate had opened up too wide, Tianming had Lingfeng placed somewhere near the Myriaddragon Mountains. He had been planning on checking on him once he got the sun on course.

“Wait for me!” He immediately piloted the ship to the mountains as fast as he could. “Huh? That’s….” The moment he left the ship, he spotted the creature Yin Chen had mentioned. “A xenofiend!”

Tianming had seen that humanoid, headless monster before. It had a gigantic purple eye near its chest and its body was entirely covered in purple hair and black smoke. This xenofiend was far larger than any he had encountered, being about the size of the Azurecloud Divine Tree. The Xenoworld Gate’s diameter had stretched to around ten thousand meters, allowing a huge beast like that to make it through. The moment Tianming arrived, the beast grabbed Lingfeng and the Soulfiend and attempted to head back through the gate. The nearby cultivators were all shocked by the sight.

“You shall not leave!” With six hundred billion Omnisentient Threads connected to him, Tianming was the absolute ruler of the sun. He descended toward the xenofiend like a ray of the divine, slashing at it with the Grand-Orient Sword. The beast let out an odd gurgling sound as it turned around and glared at Tianming. All of a sudden, a pillar of purple light shot out from its body and sent a terrifying wave of soul power into the clouds above. The wave of energy threatened to swallow Tianming up! The Soul Tower inside his sea of consciousness rumbled heavily as it protected him. Even so, his third regal soul had experienced a shock that was almost strong enough to wipe him out.

“Get… lost….” hissed the xenofiend. Tianming felt like insects were crawling all over his body after hearing its voice. One after another, more purple beam blasts landed on Tianming, crashing into him like tidal waves. The soul components of the attacks were by far the more threatening to him.

“Dammit!” Before he had even managed to jump into the fray, he’d been disoriented and sent flying.

“Big Brother!”

Tianming heard the shriek and turned around to see Qingyu above the Xenoworld Gate. She jumped and grabbed the gigantic xenofiend in an attempt to pull Lingfeng back.

“Let go and get down!” Wudi said, having disembarked from the ship only to see the terrifying sight. They had only reunited not long ago, and if something were to happen to Qingyu, he wouldn’t be able to live it down.

Qingyu saw the two of them, but she didn’t let go. Eventually, the most worrying thing happened: the xenofiend noticed the little insect that was climbing on its body as it was returning to the xenomemory space. Once more, it let out an odd gurgle before firing a purple beam from its chest-eye toward her. Her soul wasn’t that strong, so she definitely wasn’t able to take the attack unharmed. Then it stretched out its gigantic hand and used a smoky miasma to capture Qingyu. In a sense, she had been taken into its body!

When the black miasma finally turned solid, the three-headed six-armed Soulfiend snapped awake at the last moment and swallowed Qingyu and the unconscious Lingfeng in one gulp. It shrieked as the purple light struck it, but managed to survive and tried escaping in Tianming’s direction.

“Soulfiend!” Tianming quickly made his way toward the creature. His totems and lifebound beasts came in from all directions in an attempt to save Qingyu, Lingfeng, and the Soulfiend.

However, the xenofiend suddenly raged, the mouth underneath its eye opening wide. Like an insect, it had countless spiky mandibles lined up within. The opening of the gigantic mouth pushed against the eye above it, compressing it to look smaller. As it did so, it stretched its arms out into the storm of souls, grabbed the awakening Soulfiend, and stuffed it into its mouth in one gulp! It swallowed and closed its mouth like a zipper sealing shut, leaving not even the hint of a hole behind. Its eye widened again as it turned toward Tianming.
