Beastmaster of the Ages Chapter 2210 -Immersive

Chapter 2210 – Immersive

Before one wave fell, another wave rose. It didn’t matter where they were watching the battle from. Those on the scene and those in other locations were still enthralled by the power of Tianming and his three wives. Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue had already entered the battlefield, igniting the fire of war with a new Infinitum Duel. The hearts of the masses surged.

Among all the battles between geniuses, only one between real experts would definitely ignite their hearts. No matter what Lin Xiao’s reputation was like at the moment, in his prime, he was the strongest in the Lin Clan after Ku and had repeatedly brought glory to the clan. Just a hundred years ago, he had made many contributions in the fight against the luxdaemons to atone for his mistakes. It was only in recent years that he had begun to be obsessed with fighting crickets and refrained from fighting. Because of that, his brilliance had been overshadowed by upstarts in the Lin Clan—like Lin Jie, who was currently in his prime.

Needless to say, Dongshen Yue was the eldest princess of the Grandnorth Dongshen Clan and her elder brother was still leading their enormous clan. In contrast, Lin Bei and the others were young and just slightly past their prime, but they couldn’t compare to the two in terms of honor and prestige. However, their age and numbers did still put them at a disadvantage.

This time, the duel was even crazier. It was two against ten!

Lin Bei had many siblings and descendants who were very strong. The ten people on their team were basically in the prime of their lives, all of them with great vitality and experience. They were fully-grown experts that wielded great power. After the unexpected defeat of the youths, Lin Bei’s entire line had no other way to win.

It was originally a guaranteed win, but now the odds were seventy-thirty at best. The two people on Lin Xiao’s side had both deteriorated with age; most people believed that their chances of victory were low because of their shortcomings.

At this point, Lin Bei and his family would care nothing about respecting the old. Led by Lin Bei, Lin Lang, and Lin Weijian, the group of ten made their appearance. From their cold eyes, it was obvious that they were ready to go all out in this fight. They were no longer afraid of gossip.

“Second Patriarch’s achievements are obvious to all. Although we have the advantage in age and numbers in today’s succession override, it’s in compliance with the rules. Please forgive us if we offend you in the fight to come.”

It was typical of Lin Bei to be able to speak so diplomatically, even at a time like this. With the words “in compliance with the rules,” they didn’t have to worry about being criticized for bullying the elderly. In the beginning, Lin Bei hadn’t been afraid of public opinion at all. After all, eighty percent of the families had voted for the succession override, which meant that the second branch as a whole had high hopes for them. Unfortunately, the youths had failed to live up to their expectations so Lin Bei had no choice but to attach importance to what the second branch—and even the entire Lin Clan—thought about their family.

“Enough bullshit. It’s right to follow the rules,” Lin Xiao calmly said.

The husband and wife stood side by side. Throughout their lives, they had faced numerous battles fighting shoulder to shoulder and would live and die together. This kind of scene wasn’t new at all for the couple. Given the tacit understanding they had cultivated over thousands of years, they could understand each other’s thoughts with just a glance; they didn’t need to speak. Dongshen Yue had always been pushy, fierce, and even haughty and unreasonable, but at this time she silently stood beside Lin Xiao, allowing her husband to stand in the limelight.

“You’re right.” Lin Bei nodded.

The two sides faced each other on the council hall battlefield. Lin Xiaoyun and the others eagerly announced the start of the duel and both sides drew their swords.

An Infinitum Bodhimanda that was at least a hundred times bigger than the one used for Tianming’s duel suddenly appeared from the ground, covering the entire area between the council hall and the mausoleum. Tianming and the spectators were enveloped by the formation, becoming flesh and blood obstacles. The duel was now truly immersive. Those inside the formation could feel each attack; it would be as if they had personally taken the hits. It was the first time Tianming had experienced this kind of spectator mode, so he was rather excited.

As a fan of his grandparents, Tianming cheered out loud for them, regardless of what others thought. However, his actions failed to raise any eyebrows. In the world of fighting, he could only gain respect from others if he could defeat his opponents fair and square. It had always been that simple.

In fact, Tianming didn’t fault those who had voted for the succession override. From their perspective, giving Lin Bei a chance to challenge the primary line was understandable, because they longed for glory and a new beginning. But if Lin Xiao’s line was able to hold on to their position according to the rules, the branch wouldn’t have any objections, either. Fairness was important. That was the most attractive part of the Infinitum Bodhimanda mindset. Whether it was the Swordgod Lin Clan, the luxdaemons, the Grandnorth Dongshen Clan, or the ebons, the entire Infinitum Mundus belonged to a unified force—the Infinitum Bodhimanda. Before anything else, they were a member of the Infinitum Bodhimanda. Inspired by that dueling spirit, many people on the battlefield shouted and roared along with Tianming. They didn’t support a particular team, but were cheering for the winner in advance.

“Fight!!”

Due to the order of the twelve top experts, a deafening rumble exploded from the suppressed aura field. Tianming stood among the spectators, the Infinitum Bodhimanda the only thing separating him from the actual battlefield. He could barely hold on as the loud rumble swept past the formation. Although the power of order did nothing to him, he still felt like he was standing in the center of the storm and it was hard for him to gather his thoughts. The girls unknowingly leaned against him, with their hearts in their mouths. Watching the battle between cosmic cartographers up close made them feel so small, like rabbits and mice caught between wolves and tigers. The sense of oppression made their souls tremble.

Orderans and cosmic cartographers. How strong were astral gods, really? Tianming had yet to witness it. He couldn’t even move when Gongshu Ding had attacked, nor could he resist when Lin Jianxing had made his move. But compared to Lin Xiao and the other top experts, Gongshu Ding and Lin Jianxing were nothing more than insignificant characters. Although Tianming already had some status in the Swordgod Lin Clan, there was still an insurmountable gap between him and experts in their prime that were three hundred times his age and had cultivated for more than three thousand years. It would take him many years to catch up.

He could see that both Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue were direct. As soon as the formation was set up, the two made their move. Tianming stared wide-eyed. He was eager to know what it would be like when high gods fought.

Tianming knew a little about Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue’s lifebound beasts. Because they were old, they stayed in their lifebound space, cultivating together to slow the aging process. That was the reason Tianming had never laid eyes on them. At their age, they were also too lazy to move, but they wouldn’t hesitate when it came to fighting.

In the center of the storm, Lin Xiao, dressed in black and holding a sword shrouded in black mist, drew everyone’s attention. At his command, six powerful and fierce lifebound beasts that seemed to have come from ancient times appeared beside him. Of course, Lin Xiao possessed six-six talent—a grade-six swordheart and six swordbeasts. However, his lifebound beasts weren’t of six different species. Lin Xiaopo was a perfect example of someone with six beasts of six different species: a bird, a beast, an insect, a fish, and others, though they were of the same attribute, which gave them something in common. Disciples with such comprehensive talent were terrifying. However, Lin Xiao was an exception.
