Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1985 - Doom of Skywolf

Having spent much of his time fighting inside the ship, Tianming didn't know what was going on outside. Even so, the corpse of Empress Yu was right before him. It didn't matter how the sun emperor had killed her, only that he had. While he appeared to have been flirty throughout their interactions like a crass delinquent, he didn't hold back at all when it came to striking the killing blow.

Empress Yu's body had been crushed flat by the Flameyellow Coffin. Before she died, her hardened bones, organs, and muscles had turned to mush, almost like she’d been inside a mortar with the coffin acting as the pestle. Given what Tianming knew about the power of the coffin, he wasn't surprised that the sun emperor managed to kill her, only of the amount of time he took to do it. With the two empresses gone, Grand Emperor Starvore was at a huge disadvantage. He had even failed to take Li Wudi down before his wives were killed.

"Godfather!" Tianming immediately went looking for Li Wudi on the battlefield. He had just saved him from the ship's assault, after all.

"Over there!" Crimson flame clashed with lifeless white flame not far away from him. Grand Emperor Starvore, standing around three hundred meters tall, was pushing back against Li Wudi and his lifebound beast. When Tianming reached them, the blood-colored kunpeng crashed into the ground with a bone-deep wound on its back. If it weren’t for the gigantic beasts having used their totemic calamities, the kunpeng would have been killed.

Tianming saw Li Wudi covered in blood right before he was enveloped by Grand Emperor Starvore's ability. The omnipresent white flames seemed to leave nothing but ash where they burned.

"Die!"

The sharp sound of friction, quickly followed by an explosion, tore at Tianming’s eardrums. Blades and flames went flying from collisions with the Flameyellow Coffin, completely destroying an area ten thousand meters near the battlefield. Even the spherical Starvore was sent rolling far away.

Tianming breathed a sigh of relief; the sun emperor had come to deal with his foe and took a blow for Li Wudi, which showed that he wasn't willing to lose his clone—even though he would leave riskier fights to it.

"The death of the six rexes, as well as Skywolf Frost, hasn’t changed Skywolf Blaze's momentum at all. Grand Emperor Starvore's rule went unchallenged. But with the two empresses dead, Starvore is the only one remaining. Coupled with the fact that I now have his ship, which is anchored on the sun, it’ll be almost impossible for them to get past the Flameyellow Guard Formation and Lingfeng. Grand Emperor Starvore no longer has anywhere to run! Skywolf's doom is upon them!" Tianming knew that the tide of battle had turned at the point the two empresses were killed. The balance had been tipped and the battle was just rolling toward its conclusion. He had even rendered great merit by dealing with the Starvore and Empress Ying himself. Without him, Li Wudi would have caved to the pressure long ago, thereby allowing the sun emperor to be ganged up upon. In a fight between people of roughly equal strength, small details like that were important.

"I refuse to believe that the remaining specters will still fight after Grand Emperor Starvore is killed." He was almost certain that Skywolf's invasion would completely fail if things continued going down this route. He watched as the sun emperor joined Li Wudi's fight, pushing back at their enemy with eighteen totems. The totems resembled ancient divinities of the sun that cast a look of judgment on Grand Emperor Starvore.

Tianming had managed to tip the scales in favor of the sun, so his mission here was complete. "In terms of a fight between individuals, the sun emperor definitely has a huge advantage." The way Tianming saw it, there was only one way the fight would end, so he immediately left and called the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb over. Then, he piloted it toward the Starvore and used Godsin's chain form to tie the ship to one of the dragon heads of his own. "This is no doubt the greatest treasure Skywolf possesses. Now that I have its cores, I can take it back to the Sky Palace Formation and figure out what it can do. If I manage to operate it, I'll have hit the jackpot with it...."

Putting that aside, even if he couldn't use it for himself, he couldn't leave the ship in the hands of the sun emperor, who currently lacked a better ship to fulfill his wider ambitions.

"Done deal!" Tianming wasn't in a hurry to leave, even though he clearly could. He badly wanted to see how the battle between the rulers of two worlds would end. The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb ascended and dragged the spherical ship along with it, making it quite a sight as well.

Grand Emperor Starvore turned back and looked at the ships, his face completely revealing his searing wrath. Eight of nine sovereigns of Skywolf had perished alongside one of their two star worlds, all for a moment's greed. Even now, their humongous army was being held back by the baleful souls of Skywolf Frost! Despite his extensive experience, his current situation had him completely stumped. There hadn’t seemed to be anything wrong with his decisions from the start. This should have been an easy hunt, but one strange turn after another kept appearing!

First, there was a super powerful sovereign on a heliacal-class world who possessed something as terrifying as the Flameyellow Coffin and a clone that was almost as powerful. Not to mention, the sun emperor had even activated an even stronger astralguard formation than its usual one!

On top of that, there was also a young decabane genius and a soul-devouring monster. The two of them had basically singlehandedly exterminated the entirety of Skywolf Frost. The monster had then used all the baleful souls in tandem with the Flameyellow Guard Formation to keep the ten billion specter troops trapped. What was even more ludicrous was how the decabane youth had infiltrated the Starvore alone and killed one of his empresses, then took the keys of his most prized possession!

Starvore’s plan had been perfect, but not a single part of it went the way he thought it would! The normal-seeming heliacal-class world was actually a house of monsters. Grand Emperor Starvore had thought himself to be powerful, yet he was the one that now had no way to escape. Had his empresses survived, they could have helped him kill the sun emperor. That way, he could take down the Flameyellow Guard Formation and finally exterminate the sun for good, looting it clean of its treasures! Yet Tianming's theft of his ship had completely ruined everything. With his sovereigns and troops wiped out by these monsters, the rest of the specter troops were no doubt feeling utter despair as well.

Seeing the Starvore being dragged away was the final nail in the coffin. It was hard to imagine the kind of casualties his army would suffer if he died here. Skywolf Blaze would end up being counter invaded after being completely defanged. They would have come all this way only to lose everything.

The gazes of the two sun emperors made Grand Emperor Starvore's heart rate rise. Never before had he felt so utterly terrified. Though, despite the odds, his fighting spirit only kept rising. With a loud bellow, he transformed into his final form, growing larger than before. The flames around his body burned even brighter and he got on all fours, looking more like an actual demon wolf than a werewolf. An aura of dread emanated from his body as his sharp hair threateningly stood up and his fangs and claws looked even more like blades. He had become a perfect fighting machine capable of quickly eviscerating his foes.

He let out a resounding howl, inciting other specters on the sun to howl in concert with him. While they sounded melancholic, the howling conveyed their dedication to fight to the death. Grand Emperor Starvore's howl was like a mental virus that made them completely forget themselves and choose to die for their cause.

The body of the lupine beast continued expanding, his claws and fangs growing ever longer. He directed all his animosity toward the sun emperor. Tianming had retreated far away, but if the specter could still kill the sun emperor, he could still turn things around. Contrary to his appearance, he had kept a clear mind.

The gold-haired sun emperor squinted and said, "Oh, are you mad? That one over there killed your woman and took your ship. He's the one you should be mad at, no?" The sun emperor pointed in Tianming's direction with a playful smile laced with schadenfreude.

Grand Emperor Starvore didn't answer at all and instead chose to approach the sun emperor step by step. Quite a few elite specters had also come to his aid, surrounding their target. "You’re the ruler of this world, not him." To Grand Emperor Starvore, nobody but the most powerful person in this world was fit to be his nemesis. Despite the animosity, he maintained a proper respect for his powerful foe.
