Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 3071 - Boy Toy of the Reverend

Tianming was a rampaging fiend that Zhao Ge and Tao Ying simply couldn't stop! He appeared wherever he wanted and took a life every time he did. The notion that gold ring holders couldn't be killed was easily shattered.

"Tell me more about tainted beastmasters, why don't you? I, Li Tianming, someone from an insignificant world who's less than a hundred years old, am able to kill revered geniuses of Myriadpath Valley like you all the same! Killing you is like killing chickens! You’re nothing but trash! What right do you have to flaunt your sense of superiority over me?!

"What right do you have to mock me, eh?! Everyone is equal under the heavens! If all that you higher lifeforms are capable of is lording over others and oppressing them because you're stronger, don't pretend to be civilized and principled! You’re nothing but vain pieces of shit!"

Gold rings? Black rings? Absolute hierarchy? That didn't sound like the ideal place for talent to gather that Myriadpath Valley sold itself as. What Tianming wanted was a mecca for cultivation where the strongest and most talented gathered and competed with one another without silly notions of status and lineage!

"Is this all Myriadpath Valley is?" It was the same old thing that had happened countless times before: entitled young scions that sucked the blood out of talented people who were unfortunate enough to be lower born. At the end of the day, Tianming's behavior was still in line with his core values; the black smog had simply amplified the expression of his own beliefs. It was unfortunate for Huang Daoxiong that they were the outlets for his venting.

"You're Qiu Ciling, huh? A pretty woman indeed. You must have countless admirers, hmm? Is that why you keep pretending to be better than everyone else? If so, why do you mingle with these fools? Are you trying to network, or marry into power and wealth?"

Tianming eventually realized that he had killed everyone save for Huang Daoxiong, Chu Tianyu, and Qiu Ciling. Tao Ying and Zhao Ge were still pathetically attempting to chase him down like mad dogs, yet they weren't even able to touch him at all, let alone control him.

Tianming's words numbed her head. She turned back and manifested her totems, pointing a sword at him. "Are you insane? I’ll mingle with whoever I want to mingle with! What does that have to do with a tainted mundus hick like you?! Do whatever you want. Do you think you'll be able to change the fact that you're forever a low-class black ring holder?"

"Low class? As far as I'm concerned, the ones who end up dying are low class!"

Li Fan aside, even Ying Huo and the rest could tell that Tianming had changed. However, things only got more exciting! Tianming dashed in front of Qiu Ciling and fused his swords into one, shattering her totems in one destructive blow.

Her expression immediately changed. "He broke through!" But her realization had come too late. She was a physically weak totemancer that stood absolutely no chance against his monstrous body.

"Eightruin Dragonshield!" Eight dragons surrounded Tianming's right leg and turned into huge shields right before his kick landed in Qiu Ciling's chest. The shield proceeded to explode!

Lan Huang's new ability was the kind that could be released after being charged up with cosmoforce. Tianming and Lan Huang's cosmoforce doubled up and blended in with Ji Ji's genesis ancestral nova source, charging the eight dragons in the shield with explosive power. Lan Huang's own physical strength was the key that supported the shield.

When Eightruin Dragonshield exploded, it was like a world with eight cores had blown apart right in front of Qiu Ciling. The first wave of destruction landed squarely on her and was quickly followed up with Tianming's own power!

The ability-infused kick was loud and shocking to witness. Qiu Ciling hadn't been able to react and could only shriek as her beautiful body was shattered by the brutal kick. Her face and body turned into astrons and her seven cosmic charts were torn to shreds by the explosion.

Tianming had kicked the beautiful Qiu Ciling into dust. Someone as beautiful and talented as her had been in high demand in Myriadpath Valley, so it was akin to Tianming getting his hands on treasure and utterly ruining it for everyone else. Chu Tianyu and Huang Daoxiong, both seventh-level cosmic cartographers as well, were utterly stupefied.

"Haaa! Haaaah!" Their minds were completely blown. Huang Daoxiong was the one who had plotted all this. He had wanted to kill Li Fan to enrage Tianming, yet things were turning out completely differently from what he imagined—Tianming had killed everyone apart from Huang Daoxiong and Chu Tianyu in his killing spree!

"You don't know the kind of trouble you've gotten yourself into! You're dead for sure!" Huang Daoxiong had never imagined that someone like him would say a line that was so cliche. The shock of seeing Tianming not reacting like he’d planned had reset him to factory settings.

"Come back! Come back!" By then, it was clear to Huang Daoxiong that Zhao Ge and Tao Ying couldn't kill Tianming no matter how strong they were. It would be better to get them to protect him!

"Huang Daoxiong, save me!" Chu Tianyu howled.

Naturally, Huang Daoxiong didn't have the bandwidth to care for him. Zhao Ge and Tao Ying had served as his bodyguards for hundreds of years and simply ignored Chu Tianyu.

"Li Tianming, my master is Reverend Qingyuan! If you dare to touch me—"

Before Chu Tianyu finished speaking, Tianming went on a full assault. Xian Xian used Pearlight Sacredeye, which pierced Chu Tianyu. Then Tianming used Imperator's Mural with the Grand-Orient Sword and unleashed a flurry of strikes!

"So what? My master is Reverend Lan Yun! Her heavenly pattern barrier is double the size of your master's and has far more milk than you can dream of! I’m also the boy toy of a reverend, so do you think I fear you?!"

Chu Tianyu didn't know what Tianming was alluding to with 'heavenly pattern barrier', but that was no longer important. Thanks to Pearlight Sacredeye, Tianming didn't have to care about the abilities of Chu Tianyu's beasts and went on a full rampage.

His body was akin to a specter's, so all he had to do was to fight the main bodies of beastmasters and totemancers while ignoring their totems and beasts! Thanks to Fiveway Blitzrun, he had many options with which to execute that fighting style. In fact, Pearlight Sacredeye blinded Chu Tianyu and all his beasts. Even his chaos soulbeasts with star counts of three million shrieked as they burned in the sacred light.

Chu Tianyu had no choice but to block the attack in desperation, yet he was completely unaware that Tianming had zipped to his back with Fiveway Blitzrun in the next instant. The sword projection of Imperator's Mural pierced through him from behind! By the time he reacted, it was far too late. He turned into a pile of burning ash as he shrieked in agony.
