Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1060 - His Name Is Liu Qinghuan

Taking her life in three breaths' time sounded like a joke, but Yueshen Wushuang couldn't bring herself to laugh. She had been at the Octasaint Sky level for a long time and hadn't broken through in decades, so she found it baffling that a seventeen-year-old brat could pose such a threat to her.

As Tianming spoke, he charged with his four godswords along with Ying Huo and Meow Meow at full throttle. Every instant that passed was precious time that couldn't afford to be lost. Desperate, Yueshen Wushuang grit her teeth as she used every ounce of her power and experience as a grand moon guide to fight, charging with her spear, Blacksky Sunpiercer. Every single albus in her body sent astralforce into her divine artifact.

Only divine artifacts could endure the power of astralforce from a divine body. The spear pierced through thousands of meters as she executed her spear art, Darkstar of Death. Her spear began morphing into tens of thousands of black stars after executing the third-realm divine art. While its principles weren't as simple as Hexapath Samsara Sword's, the spear art was rather complex. It could turn one spear into tens of thousands, sealing off every avenue of escape for Tianming. However, he wasn't even trying to escape. Instead, he charged straight toward her.

But that wasn't all. Yueshen Wushuang used her totems to support her by activating their totemic calamity. All six blacksky panthergods scattered and formed a circle as black smoke began wafting off their bodies. Eventually, the smoke became a sphere, then a black vortex which hung above her head that worked perfectly in tandem with her spear art. It was the Blacksky Voidhole, used to increase the force of her attack by sucking her enemies toward it!

The mud, water, gravel, and even trees around Tianming were pulled and ground to fine dust by the vortex that had manifested in a fraction of a second. As expected of a royal eighth-level ascendant, a peak elite of the divine moonrace. Her abilities made Tianming retract his former arrogance.

"Die!"

Lately, Xian Xian had mastered a second-realm divine art that Tianming had obtained by challenging the third ancient idol when he wasn’t at the pagoda. It was called the Celestial Fairy's Floral Whip and it seemed tailor-made for Xian Xian. Being not too complicated, it could be crudely executed by its vines. When tens of thousands of them used it at the same time, the move could unleash a huge destructive force.

The Radiant Vines turned into blurs as they began swatting away at the totems, slowly damaging their corporeal forms, but that was only the first act. Amidst the whipping vines shot out two lances of blood lightning that pierced two of the blacksky panthergods' heads. The heads exploded shortly after into mists of blood from Meow Meow's Cosmic Lance, thanks to the explosive reaction that mixed the forces of yin and yang.

The damage the two totems suffered affected the power of the totemic calamity, causing the vortex to drop in suction force for a single moment, which was fatal for Yueshen Wushuang. Tianming's swords came flashing countless times, blasting out complicated sword intent all over the place. Countless moons began forming in their surroundings, colored with the attributes of Tianming's cardinal godswords as he executed the Moonnight Subdued Strike, the most famous battle art in the Divine Moon Realm. And now it was being used by an enemy, another fact that completely shocked her.

The first strike, Seaborne Moon, completely locked her down with its complicated sword formation. Then Ying Huo appeared and used Infernal Haze, causing countless flaming birds to manifest. It used Death Inferno and Skyscorch Featherblast back to back as well as Hexapath Samsara Sword as it rapidly descended from the sky with Meow Meow. Flames and lightning intertwined, completely obliterating the vortex generated by the totems.

The totems themselves groaned in pain from the collision and began to fade away. They tried clawing away at the flaming bird clones, but they only exploded and caused further damage. A few of Ying Huo's feather projectiles had also pierced Yueshen Wushuang's back. Now, she was sandwiched between the Moonnight Subdued Strike and Hexapath Samsara Sword. It really had only taken three breaths for Tianming to neutralize her divine art and totemic calamity.

He blazed a trail of flame as he tore through the blacksky panthergods and thrust his swords through Yueshen Wushuang in tandem with Ying Huo attacking from behind. She didn't even get a chance to shriek as she instantly died on the spot, right on time.

Her hands loosened and she dropped her spear before slumping lifelessly to the ground. Tianming only glanced at her for a moment before drawing back his sword and charging forward. She was only the first to die in an attempt to stop him; there was no more turning back.

He had no choice if he wanted to save Feng and protect his home. Despite the quick battle, four grand moon guides had made their way to the lake from the nearby building, only to see Yueshen Wushuang's lifeless body, which stunned them for a good moment. During that time, Tianming intercepted them while Lan Huang and Xian Xian continued wolfing down the water of the lake. As the lakewater receded, the formation shook more and more and started going haywire, bombarding the city itself. No matter how unbelievable the sight was, the grand moon guides were hardly novices, so they quickly reacted.

"Quick, kill him!"

One after another, elites that weren’t any bit weaker than Yueshen Wushuang charged at him like they would Bodhi. Tianming even heard an annoyed man's voice coming from the building. "Who in the world is causing such a ruckus when I'm drinking? Are you trying to die?!"

Tianming knew who that was: the strongest member of the rootbeast race in the Divine Moon Realm and husband of the imperial guide, Saint Moon Guide Liu Qinghuan!

……

It was the eighteenth time Lin Xiaoxiao saw Feiling split into dust and reform again and again. She looked a little pale from the experience.

"Don't worry, I'm holding up," she said, forcing a smile.

"Ling'er, it's taking longer and longer."

"What is?"

"The time it takes you to reform."

"How… how long did it take this time?" Feiling asked nervously.

"Fifteen minutes. I feel like some parts of your body might've scattered in the surroundings," Lin Xiaoxiao said melancholically.

"I see… it's fine, just consider it as me getting a free trip around the world. I'm fine, Xiaoxiao, really. I'm growing stronger," she consoled.

"Alright. It'll be fine." She held Feiling's hand tightly.

"What do you mean it'll be fine? You'll die after exploding one more time!" Huiye Shi said.

"You, shut up!" Lin Xiaoxiao snapped.

"I feel like it's pointless for you two to console each other like this. At this rate, you won't even be able to see him one last time. What's the point of cultivating and improving? Think about it. With Tianming in the palace, nobody else pays me any more attention, so I can sneak in. If I can find him, I'll tell him what's going on with you."

"No," Feiling insisted.

"I don't care. You're not the boss of me! It's wrong for you to hide this. He has a right to know. Back then, I almost doomed you because of my immaturity. Let me make up for it this time!" Huiye Shi stood up and headed toward Divine Moon Skycity.

"Let her go. She might be able to find Tianming," Lin Xiaoxiao said.

Feiling closed her eyes. "I'm a little mad…"

"Because of Huiye Shi?"

"No." Her expression grew colder.

"Then why?"

"It's hard enough to even survive… I feel that the heavens aren't treating me fairly. It feels like my life is at the whims of others and it's infuriating."

"It'll get better, Ling'er."

"Let's hope I'm still me when it's all over." She gripped her fists tightly. Since leaving Vermillion Bird, she had noticed herself clenching her teeth with rage from time to time. She was still holding Ling'er's Love; it was what motivated her to endure and hold on time and again.

"Huiye Shi's gone in."

The two of them looked at the city. All of a sudden, the beautiful and peaceful formation shook, and even seemed to be crumbling.

"The formation's off. He must be starting," Feiling said.

"If we’d known earlier, we wouldn't have let Shishi go," Lin Xiaoxiao said.

"Yeah…"

Things were getting more dangerous.

"He might be trying to lure Bodhi in. If Bodhi's nearby, he wouldn't miss it."

The two of them looked at one another nervously. Even with Tianming's Prime Tower, Feiling still couldn't stop worrying.

"Ling'er!" Lin Xiaoxiao said nervously, "Look over there!"

Feiling turned to where she was pointing at. There was a girl in pure white sitting on a tree branch, shaking her legs as she looked toward the city. She seemed really young and looked to be holding a purple doll.

"It's a specter," Lin Xiaoxiao said, relaying what the Archaionfiend told her.

"Only Bodhi could've brought her here. That means he's nearby," Feiling said.

"What do we do?"

"Shhh, don't make a sound. Don't move."

They watched the girl closely; she didn't seem to have noticed them. Then, the girl jumped off the tree, seemingly bored, and tossed her doll on the ground. Feiling and Lin Xiaoxiao only just realized that it was no doll, but a dead divine moonrace infant. It must've died quite a while ago, given how purple it was.

Then the girl turned into a gigantic silver wolf and devoured the infant in a single gulp, not spitting out even a single bone.
