Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1642 - Lay Down and Shut Up

"Kou Mingyou!" Tianming called out, drawing attention to himself. This was his usual shtick. "Eat my sword!"

Using his different sword ki strands, with Frozen Glasstree as the main one, Tianming descended like a dragon as he used the Sixdragon Tribulation. The sword ki turned into dragons and came bearing down.

"Go away!" Kou Mingyou roared. His fighting style was rather rough, and his third-level solarian astralforce was far fiercer than Tianming's. He executed a seventh-realm divine art, Nightfiend Dance, Moonscourge Storm! The spiked club blurred into a black storm, fueled by astralforce and seemed to be able to counter Tianming's fusion strike. The two strikes clashed and sent off sparks in all directions. "That's all you're capable of?" Kou Mingyou finally gained some confidence from the exchange.

"Have you forgotten that I have a sovereign beast too?" Tianming smiled. People all too often disregarded Ying Huo's presence.

Kou Mingyou seemingly just remembered. Tianming's beasts had pinned down his desolate nightsky direwolves so that he could directly get to him! By now, two of his wolves had torn the gigantic centipedes into many pieces, but it was already too late—Kou Mingyou didn’t know where Ying Huo had gone! It was one thing for Meow Meow to expand in size, thanks to its transformation, yet Ying Huo wasn't big to begin with, and it could shrink even smaller!

"I'm over here, dimwit!" A flash of yellow the size of a small moth could be seen amidst the clashing strikes. It was a tiny sovereign beast that had worked its way behind Kou Mingyou, who couldn't resist as he was occupied with Tianming! "Let me widen that hole back here for you!"

Ying Huo also knew how to use the Ninedragon Tribulation somewhat. In fact, some of the sword ki in its body was also grade seven, while its feathers had been enhanced by Blazebane, Cosmic Blade. Let's just say that the thrust that followed felt out of this world.

"Aaaagh!" Kou Mingyou's face contorted and flushed red. Rampaging flaming sword ki entered from his bottom and left through his head in the form of blood. Fortunately, this was just a simulation in the wondersky realm, so it didn't look as realistic or gory as it should. He was almost instantly vaporized. "Li Tianming of Violetglory...." He vanished, still filled with resentment and a murderous rage.

"So long. Hope we don't meet again." Tianming smiled, feeling more confident after having defeated Kou Mingyou without his totems. That showed that his strength was still among the top, even in the Mysterium Cluster. At the very least, he could defeat geniuses from skypiercer-class worlds.

Following his defeat, Kou Mingyou's lifebound beasts scattered away as well, leaving Tianming's beasts free. The reason he hadn’t even used his totems was that Ye Chen was still taking his time with Bai Feng, so there was no worry that he would touch the astralis; there was simply no need for him to rush. The fight between Ye Chen and Bai Feng with Zhong Yirou and Qiao Xingzhou supporting her was still at a stalemate, with both sides being equal. Xian Xian did help stop Bai Feng from being killed. Bai Feng was quite powerful, being a specter, and Tianming wouldn't be able to defeat her without his beasts and totems.

Everyone from Darkfiend Heptus and the Violetglory Star saw how Tianming had defeated Kou Mingyou. It was sensational, to say the least. Apart from Ye Chen, the other three party members' expressions were of complete disbelief. They were soon filled with fear and discontent. One of them said, "It's alright, we still have Ye Chen! He's stronger than Kou Mingyou! Hold on! They're about to crumble!"

That rallying call helped restore some of their morale. They weren’t wrong in thinking that Ye Chen and their combined assault was pushing Bai Feng and Bai Huai to the edge, as the two from the Bluemarked Star couldn't fight in close combat. Bai Huai was already quite badly injured and would soon be eliminated. Qiao Xingzhou and Zhong Yirou paled at their dire situation.

"It's all the fault of—" Before Zhong Yirou could lay blame on Tianming, she heard a loud explosion. Turning around, she saw Kou Mingyou vanish into thin air. "Huh?" She felt a tingle at her cheeks, completely stunned.

"Careful, Rou!"

Enemy lifebound beasts flew past her head and scraped at her with their claws, drawing much blood and almost killing her. "Ouch, it hurts!"She got up as two enemies came charging her way. Panicking, she scrambled away. Thankfully, Qiao Xingzhou covered for her and saved her. The entire time, she could think of nothing but Kou Mingyou's defeat.

"Rou, seriously! Be careful! And stop talking bad about Li Tianming! Bai Feng found an elite to join us. We should apologize to him later," Qiao Xingzhou said, demonstrating his change of heart. Now, it only made Zhong Yirou look bad.

"Huh? Weren't you the first to say he isn't capable?" she snapped.

"Enough of that!" If they kept talking, their astralis would blow up. One of the enemies had charged past them and was attacking the Astralium Formation as they panicked. They were the ones who were supposed to keep an eye out on the formation, having been fighting at the rear. With someone so close to them, there was little they could do about it! "Li—Brother Tianming! Come save us!" she cried, tears in her eyes, thinking that Tianming would save them for changing their attitude toward him. However, Tianming merely rolled his eyes and ignored them, taking his lifebound beasts toward Ye Chen instead.

"Hey, if you don't help, we'll lose our astralis!" she called out.

"Bitch, lay down and shut up," Tianming barked.

"You—" The two were rendered speechless.
