Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1594 - Famous Across Stars

The entire battlefield was Xian Xian's natural habitat. It was the tallest tree in the dense forest, and the foggy mist made it hard for others to distinguish it from the other trees. The five million Yin Chens were even harder to spot, having spread across the trees, ground, rocks, and rivers, obtaining a complete view of the surroundings at all times and able to mobilize into an army of metal insects. Tianming himself didn't hide his nine totems and let them stand tall on the ground behind him.

"I’ll make sure every genius from the stars and the people of the myriad worlds remember my name." So far, there were already nine such worlds. The Seventh Sun and Bloodfiend Hell probably would also pay attention to him from now on as well, since Xue Tu was their proud representative. No doubt, people from countless worlds would come to him to witness his impressiveness for themselves!

"Before I fought Ye Chen in the wondersky realm, I heard he defeated geniuses from a dozen other nova source worlds. Back then, he’d just entered the Tranquil Battlefield, like I have now. But after our draw, people said he shook the Astraldome, though I wonder if that was just an exaggeration. All he did was kill a rednamed hundred-man slayer and last a day to get to the second level of the Tranquil Battlefield."

In other words, as long as Tianming succeeded today, he would have caught up to Ye Chen's achievements. "I bet there'll be another uproar once I do."

The Astraldome was actually a rather bad place for one's true abilities to be evaluated. For instance, Tianming's abilities had been rated as weaker than they were in the real world. Not to mention, there were no doubt countless more powerful geniuses from worlds like Orderia that had no access to wondersky realms.

Even so, Tianming felt like he had hit the jackpot ever since coming in. Orderia and the Violetglory Star seemed pretty normal from what he had seen in the wondersky realm, yet were they really so? To Tianming, the celestial orderians, Violetcloud Imperium, and the Divineglory Dynasty were powerful giants. If the wondersky realm was a way for him to look to the stars for inspiration, Orderia and the Violetglory Star were the firm grounds upon which he had to work toward his aspirations. The only reality was where his true body was.

"I believe the divine wondersky race is wrong to think that they're the best of the best. Their influence across the astralscape is far from all encompassing, creating a false sense of domination. In the real world, the Violetglory Star, Orderia, Seventh Sun, and the Bloodfiend Hell are practically autonomous. I don't even know where they are, and even with the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb I have no idea if I'll ever be able to reach them."

Tianming was all too aware of the reality that mattered. He considered the Astraldome as nothing more than a stage for his performance, rather than a place to accurately assess his abilities. The reason people were shocked that Ye Chen made it to the second level of the Tranquil Battlefield was because the extent of the astralscape they could see was far too small. They were limited to places with wondersky realms, and there were likely to be far more places that didn't have those. While Tianming thirsted for battle, he knew it wasn't real here. What mattered was the Violetglory Star, where his real body was.

"I won't die here, but I can die in reality!" In other words, what he did in the Astraldome was all in service for what he could achieve in reality. One had to remember the ground one stood on even as they looked toward the stars. After all, the higher one flew, the harder they would fall. He gripped the Grand-Orient Sword tight, studying its patterns, and sighed, waiting for his next opponent to come.

Back home, the entire star was incensed when Tianming's name turned red. The wondersky realm was filled to the brim with caeli who were spectating the battle. There were more spectators than when Ye Chen had become a redname, and this was Tianming's first time in the Astraldome. Unlike Ye Chen, he was far more domineering. Ye Chen had used a movement skill to avoid getting attacked, while Tianming just stood there like a mountain, inspiring a lot of chatter.

"Is he simply ignorant of the powerful people in the astralscape, or is he just that confident?"

"I guess time will tell. If he manages to succeed despite not running around, then he's invincible. If he fails, he's just an ignorant and arrogant kid."

Everyone had their eyes peeled to see which would be the case.

"The first opponent is here! Wait, they're gone...."

It had happened too quickly. Meow Meow and Ying Huo had charged toward the enemy and blasted them to pieces before they’d even spotted Tianming. More and more people came, all of them sharing similar fates.

"If he doesn't move from there, he could face more than a hundred times the opponents Ye Chen did. How many did he kill back then?"

"Ye Chen had to defeat seventeen people while moving around."

"Then won't Tianming be facing close to a thousand people? Are there even that many people on the first level?"

"Definitely. The first level of the Tranquil Battlefield has the most people."

"No matter the outcome, I can say for sure that Li Tianming's at least far more badass than Ye Chen ever was. He's the only one in the Astraldome to pull such a stunt!"

"You can say that, but that's cause you haven't seen many Astraldome battles in the first place."

"Haha!"

The Violetglory Star's wondersky realm was filled with merry spectators as Tianming slaughtered his opponents. The fact that Xue Tu had been able to become a hundred-man slayer showed that he was among the strongest on the first level. As for the others that came for Tianming, they were on the level of Yao Mimi and the rest. There would be a chance for them if they banded together, but they stood no chance the way they were coming at Tianming one after another. They were only eighth- or ninth-level constelliers, after all.

Tianming split his sword in two and kept fighting people from all kinds of different worlds. No matter their skills, they all met the cruel fate of being beheaded. However, the Lifesteal Silverdragon was still the most efficient, easily piercing the hearts of multiple enemies. The rest of his beasts were spread out across the battlefield. Xian Xian fought from the center of the formation, with Lan Huang as the vanguard and Yin Chen supervising the surroundings. Ying Huo and Meow Meow freely moved around to harvest helpless fighters. Tianming, on the other hand, was a meat grinder with his nine totems. His kill streak allowed him to vent quite a lot of inner frustrations.

"Die!" More and more people fell. There was even one instance where thirty people charged him at once, only to be torn apart by the sword formation of Myriadsword Providence.

"Li Tianming of the Violetglory Star has nine totems and five lifebound beasts!"

"Who in the world is he?!"

Everyone spectating was shocked by Tianming, whose name they had never heard before. Within their little wondersky realms, they weren't able to see how vast the universe truly was. All they could see was what the little window of the wonderians showed them.

"Li Tianming is far too fierce. Nobody like him has appeared in the Astraldome before."

"What kind of place is the Violetglory Star? What kind of civilization do they have to be able to produce such a fearsome talent?"

"Are they incredibly powerful in the center of the astralscape? Not even the top genius of our world can take a single hit from him!"

Tianming was single-handedly changing how people viewed the Violetglory Star. Though, the way he saw it, there was no way it was situated in the center of the astralscape, given how little time it had taken for his divine astralship to reach it.

A day soon passed. As the range of visibility of the redname was limited to a local area, rather than the full battlefield, staying in one spot had probably limited the number of people he’d had to fight. And with Yin Chen keeping an eye out, he would never be ambushed. When there were no enemies incoming, he would hunt those who were lying in ambush. Killing in the wondersky realm wouldn't weigh on his conscience anyway.

"Come on! Who's next?"

There wasn't even any blood or corpses in the wondersky realm. After the fights, the surrounding environment was covered in green liquid, just as Tianming had planned. That caused the people of the myriad worlds to remember him well. It wasn't just other worlds, even his world was shocked once more, the second time since he defeated Ye Chen. Even those from the Divineglory Dynasty felt proud for being on the same star as him. Tianming once more secured some faith of the cultivators of the Violetglory Star. Now, he wondered what kind of reward he would get.
