Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2743 - I Failed to Teach My Children Well

“Tales of the Trashy Divine Wonderians?” Tianming sensed the deep hatred Old Man Voidback held toward the wonderians. Or rather, it was the entire Grand Xia Voidback Nation that detested them.

"What outrageous crime could they have committed that took an entire book to record it?" Through more than twenty years of contact, he indeed had no good feelings toward the wonderians.

Whether it was the dreamless celestial emperor or Rex Mundi Meng Ying, both would stoop to the lowest depths to achieve their sinister goals. The dreamless celestial emperor, especially, was scum among scum. As for those dead infants within Meng Ying’s Dreamchild, Tianming still didn't know exactly what was going on.

The wonderians enjoyed preferential treatment in the wondersky realms and constructed them everywhere. "What exactly are they planning? I hope this book can give me answers...." Tianming reached out to flip the book open. However, he was dumbfounded. He couldn't open it!

On the cover page, the divine patterns changed, condensing into a small line of words: "Wait until your Grand Xia Lexicon grows to the maniverse class before you can understand this segment of history! Knowing it in advance isn’t beneficial to you, and it may also attract disaster."

Tianming's expression stiffened. The speechlessness in his heart was more than the one hundred thousand characters in the Grand Xia Lexicon. "Dammit... beating around the bush, no wonder you couldn’t beat the wonderians." From the time he got the spirit core until now, the impression that the matters of the ruined nation of Grand Xia gave him were related to destiny.

The wonder had been obtained, but many of its secrets were still hidden. "Fine! I'll first enjoy your universe's number-one wonder, then see if it's really as awesome as you claim." Tianming was happy to be relaxed without taking responsibility for the time being. He put away the book.

"Maniverse-class? Is that what lies beyond infinitum-class? Is there anything else other than imperial-class?” The maniverse-class had to be between infinitum and imperial-class.

"No hurry, meals have to be eaten one bite at a time. The growth of the wonder takes precedence."

Tianming only had twenty days left in the capital, so he was naturally anxious. His new wonder needed repeated pondering, practicing, and arranging. It also needed to be tested in actual combat.

After a little practice, he took some time to join forces with Feiling to clean up some soon-to-expire pleasure balls, then rushed to the Xenoabyss. With Feiling watching over him, he felt at ease. After the coordinates of Moonfang Marker refreshed, he went in again using it.

After cleaning up the pleasure balls, Tianming was in sage mode and could look at Zi Zhen's cold face and her messy purple hair without any dirty thoughts. Ling'er was really intense. Xian Xian must’ve told on me!

Antiquitas Capital was an opportunity for rapid advancement. Tianming needed a stronger self-defense capability and enough capital to have the opportunity to contact higher-level figures to inquire about the Ancient Oldgod Domain.

While integrating the grand lexicon wonder, he had already figured out his subsequent plans. "The strong in the capital are as common as clouds. I can’t let it be known that I can heal xeno fatigue.”

Hold steady! After he arrived, the Yin Chens in the capital could wake up, continuing to disperse and expand its range as much as possible.

"Remember, although this is a city, its territory should be similar to the surface area of a sanctuary-class world." Just the Ninth District alone surpassed some continents on Ebonia. Tianming adjusted his mentality, turned his head, and looked at the purple-haired girl standing on the edge of the hundred-meters-tall grass.

"Still waiting for me here?"

"I live here." Zi Zhen slightly raised her head, and in her messy hair, her cold, dark purple eyes glanced at Tianming.

"You don't even have a house? You're really pitiful."

Tianming swept his eyes around, looking at this place full of overgrown grass.

"I don't need one," Zi Zhen calmly said.

Right! Although their lifestyle was primitive, their tier was high. Only low-level beings needed houses, cities, and astralships to increase their sense of security. Zi Zhen only needed to define a territory for herself for cultivation and repel those who entered her territory.

"It seems like you aren’t doing well either. I heard that in the capital, the actually awesome people live on the surface."

Deep underground, the birds didn’t shit and the eye of heaven couldn’t reach it. Normal people wouldn’t want to be there, so only the bottom rung of people in the capital would barely eke out survival there. This place wasn’t considered a slum for no reason.

"If all you're going to do is mock me, then you can get lost," Zi Zhen said, somewhat displeased.

Ying Huo popped out from Tianming's pocket and said, "Silly girl, you don't understand. This is called 'negging'. First, he'll belittle you and crush your self-confidence. Then he can take advantage of the situation to occupy your mind, making you feel grateful and admire him, so as to easily manipulate you. Believe me, don't look at his innocent-looking face, he’s just figuring out how to have a passionate interspecies relationship with you."

"Fuck you!" Tianming pinched its neck with his black arm, causing it to foam at the mouth before he tossed it back into his lifebound space.

"Sorry, I failed to teach these kids well," Tianming said with a smile, scratching his head.

"Hehe." Zi Zhen gave him a cold glance and subconsciously tightened her clothes, apparently believing it.

Tianming was speechless and cursed Ying Huo in his heart ten thousand times. "It’s like this, I want to cooperate with you." Tianming sincerely said.

"Cooperate?" Zi Zhen took a few steps back, pointed to the distance, and said, "I didn't expect you to look so clean but be so filthy inside. You can get lost. I can overlook you taking things from my territory, but please, next time, don't return to the astralscape from my home.”

"It's a misunderstanding!" Tianming said with a headache.

"Get lost." Zi Zhen's face began turning cold, and her body was indeed terrifying. Her flesh and blood crackled and cosmoforce surged. The hundreds of thousands of stars in her eyes were like a blossoming starry sky. She was a simple and violent woman. If Tianming didn't listen, she would really take action.

"Zi Zhen." Tianming pursed his lips and said, "I can help you alleviate the pain caused by the xeno fatigue, temporarily restoring your combat power."

The method used to deal with Mister Gu could be used again. The move was indeed foolproof. Zi Zhen didn't look old, and Tianming felt that her talent might even be better than Li Fan of the Myriadpath Valley. She wasn’t just a random nobody if she could endure ten fatigue vortices like she was.

Thus, while Tianming was at the bottom of the pyramid in the entire capital, he believed that Zi Zhen was useful. And sure enough, when he said that, Zi Zhen blankly stared at him.
