Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2014 – Illuminating The Imperialdragon Palace

As Qiang spoke, he grew more and more excited as if he had gone crazy.

"Speak!"

"First of all, the sun emperor controls a coffin-shaped divine artifact which may be the core of this ancient star’s astralguard formation. Its power is terrifying. Secondly, not only is he a nonabane totemancer, he also has a nonabane clone! I saw his strength from a distance. Without the coffin, he may be equivalent to a third- or fourth-level sovereign, but with it, he’s likely as powerful as a seventh-level sovereign. Naturally, I’m far from being his opponent. The death of the fifth-level Sovereign Starvore proves this."

Upon hearing that, the giant man in the blood mist became solemn. His presence was rather oppressive for Qiang. "He’s probably not as strong as a seventh-level sovereign. I’ve seen that little starvorian. He’s strong. With a divine artifact and the impetus of a star, he might be comparable to a sixth-level sovereign,” said the giant man.

"Father, this is only part of it. There’s something more important!" Qiang solemnly said.

"Tell me."

"They said that Li Tianming, who belongs to a different faction from the sun emperor, isn’t a nonabane, but a decabane! He has ten totems! You shouldn't have doubts about his identity, The description they gave of him was basically the same as the young man that appeared on the Skydome Battlefield! In fact, the Skywolf specters originally thought it would be an easy invasion, so they don’t have much information. That’s everything they know."

"A decabane and they delayed reporting it? Those little Skywolf thieves have a big appetite indeed. They deserved to die!" His voice grew frosty. "A decabane! Did you see it with your own eyes, Qiang?" the giant man in the blood mist asked.

Shaking his head, Qiang said, "Our appearance is too conspicuous. I was afraid we might startle them if we got too close, so I can’t confirm if he’s a decabane. But the ones I captured were Skywolf’s top experts. They just received that information. I think their information is reliable. They said that everyone on the sun knows that Li Tianming is a decabane genius. His sister, Li Qingyu, and a young man named Ye Lingfeng are also on the sun. They match that group of people in the wondersky realm!"

"So the truth is out. There’s no way such a group of geniuses were born in a place like Violetglory. I thought they came from outside the cosmos. Who would’ve thought they were in the Mysterium Cluster!" The giant man looked up at the sky and added, "Only a world that used to be deific class could produce an expert like the sun emperor among all the other ordinary people, and prodigies like Li Tianming, Ye Lingfeng, and Li Qingyu among the geniuses. They must’ve received the ancient star’s legacy! The star must hide innumerable ancient treasures.... This may be the biggest opportunity in all of history! In the future, it may become more than just Skyway Quadstar! Your contribution is immeasurable. You’ve made me proud. You’re the pride of the faceless specters!"

"Yes, father!" Qiang was of course overjoyed.

"So what should I do next? Should I speak to Li Tianming?" After all, the original purpose of his journey was to fetch Tianming from Violetglory.

"Absolutely not! You don't have to do anything. Quietly monitor them and wait for the arrival of our army. This time, I’ll set off in person."

"Yes, father!"

"Of course, we also have to look out for Li Tianming's divine astralship to prevent him from leaving alone. Apart from the ancient star itself, he must also have many secrets. It’s even more important not to alert him at a time like this."

"Yes!"

At that point, Qiang froze, then quickly added, "Father, both Skywolf stars have been destroyed and there’s an internal war happening on the sun. I just watched the sun emperor and Li Tianming fight what looks like a life-and-death battle. Although I could only sneak a few glances, Li Tianming seems extremely strong.... Wouldn’t it be a big loss for us if Li Tianming is defeated and killed?"

"They’re fighting?" The giant man was silent for a moment. "For a young man less than thirty years old to possess such power, he must have the help of some divine artifact like the sun emperor. Since he’s called Li Tianming, he must be the son of destiny of this ancient world. Let’s bet on his victory. There’s nothing else you can do....

"Even if the sun emperor wins, he’ll acquire Li Tianming's divine artifacts. As long as he stays on the sun, it’ll be ours in the end. So you must remain steady and pretend that you don't exist! Don't get involved in anything." The sun’s current position was on their star map. He had Qiang monitor it out of the fear that they would move elsewhere. They would be completely lost if the sun was gone when they arrived.

"If that's the case, I won't visit Violetglory for now."

"Yes, this ancient star doesn’t have a wondersky realm. They probably used Violetglory’s wondersky realm to enter the Astraldome. Anyway, Li Tianming has been there. We’ll also send out a battalion to seal up Violetglory while the rest of the Astral Armada is on their way. No one can escape!"

"Yes, father. I’m going back out."

"If there’s any changes, make sure to report them. Don't look for information, just stay away. Follow the star wherever it goes. Anyway, it’ll never be as fast as a divine astralship."

Qiang found that his father was speaking a lot more lately. He had always been a man of few words, so even though he still sounded cold and serious, he was actually very excited inside.

"It’s the will of the heavens that we mysterians rise to a higher level among all the other races in the cosmos...."

Just as he was about to leave, Qiang turned around and asked, "Father, are we still going to recruit and nurture these kids?"

A quick look at .com will leave you more fulfilled.

Looking down at him, the giant man laughed, "Are you stupid? How can we do that?"

Yes, how could they do that? The mysterians didn’t need to rope in geniuses.

......

The Imperialdragon Palace was the core of the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb’s divine astralship formation. It sealed the nova source absorbed from the sun, compressed it, and stored fundamental cosmic force comparable to the Divine Moon Realm on the astralship.

Everyone was recuperating, so Tianming was there alone. Placing the wardrum formation on the ground, he held eight gleaming drumsticks in his hand, each one representing a dragon palace. He had struck all of them.

"Ninedragon Tribulation’s last sword, Flameyellow Immemorial. I’m going to try using all eight drumsticks together and gather the power of all the dragons." He silently contemplated for a while. In fact, the move wasn’t simple. Recalling the emotions he had when he’d just killed the sun emperor, his heart began resonating with the sword.

"Come on!” Taking a deep breath, Tianming, with eight drumsticks in his hands, pointed them at the drum. On the drum was a nine-headed dragon, some heads majestic, some ferocious, some cold, and some holy. They each had their own characteristics.
