Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1524 - Aeonic Infinidragon Formation

Once more, the celestial orderians had suffered a heavy blow. Everyone's expression changed when the tables turned. The giant controlled swords shaped like the decapath era godswords as it continued its slaughter. Once it ran out of power, it began shrinking more and more, a sign that its power wasn’t limitless. Even so, it was still the most devastating killer on the battlefield as long as it still had energy to operate.

"Torchdragon Emperor, what’re you waiting for?!" Apothecary Li yelled.

The three Dragon Imperials snapped out of their stupor and ganged up on Tianming with their lifebound beasts. "Quick, kill him!" All three of them, when combined with the three celestial orderian elites, did pose a lot of trouble for Tianming. Their abilities and totemic calamities slammed into the giant, destabilizing much of the energy that was concentrated around him and leaving countless holes in the giant. However, the Ninedragon Army now had the advantage and wouldn't let them attack Tianming unanswered for long. The Saintdragon Emperor and Dragon Imperials struck, holding back four of the six for Tianming and leaving him to deal with Apothecary Li and the Torchdragon Emperor.

"Die!"

As the crushing decapath era godswords struck, they instantly tore Apothecary Li's totems apart, killing the famous personage and turning his body into stardust soon after!

"Yet another one is dead!" The beastmasters cheered at the sight as they looked at Tianming up above. The Omnisentient Will of more than a billion people came flooding toward Tianming, greatly fueling the growth of his Imperial Will, the biggest jump he had experienced yet. However, he didn't notice it due to the sheer surge in power he felt coming from the dragonsouls of origin.

Loudly roaring, he looked at the final foe that pestered him: the Torchdragon Emperor! He was the most powerful person of the Veildragon Palace and was much younger than the Saintdragon Emperor. However, he seemed completely shaken by the deaths of Li Xiaoyan and Apothecary Li. It was as if the Ninedragon Emperor of legend had returned to the world. The 'Ninedragon Emperor' looked at him coldly, causing his psyche to begin crumbling.

"Impossible!" he roared, immediately trying to assault Tianming with his lifebound beasts in one crazed, last-ditch effort, grief and despair clearly visible on his face. Facing what was supposed to be his ancestor, he performed even worse than Li Xiaoyan had. His will had long since been crushed, thanks to the regret he felt in his blood; it was as if his whole body was numbing up.

The decapath era godswords joined together and blasted toward the Torchdragon Emperor. After Tianming unleashed most of the energy of the swords formed of nova source, the Torchdragon Emperor and his lifebound beasts rained down to the ground, dead.

"Noooo!"

He was the third elite to be killed, and his last thoughts were of grim despair. His impressive lifebound beasts weren't spared either. The only ones left now were the Blooddragon Emperor and Voiddragon Emperor, but now they had Tianming and his lifebound beasts to deal with on top of the Saintdragon Emperor's group. They soon fell despite trying to escape. All seven elite generals of the enemy army had been crushed! Even though Tianming's powerup was swiftly running out, what he had already accomplished was more than enough. There was nothing the enemy army could do now but crumble, especially when most of the Veildragon Palace had already surrendered. Some of them had even switched sides mid-battle in hopes of atoning for their crimes.

"Everyone from the Veildragon Palace, listen up! Killing the celestial orderians with us is the only way you'll get to live!" the Saintdragon Emperor said. With their Dragon Imperials dead, that would be a saving grace of hope for them. They quickly did as they were told and charged against their former allies with deathly fervor, accelerating the culling of the celestial orderians.

They were instantly plunged into an endless abyss from which they could never crawl back from. Pain, suffering, and agony assailed them at the same time as they watched the Saintdragon Emperor and the rest reclaim the dragonsprings from those they had killed. Even if they didn't get all of them, as long as they had more dragonsprings than the enemy, that meant that they had already taken back control of the Myriaddragon Mountains. Normally, the Dragon Imperials of the Veildragon Palace and their celestial orderian co-conspirators held some dragonsprings to be able to suppress the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect at any time. Back then, they had also given one to Li Wushuang, which had further put them at a disadvantage. With the dragonsprings now returned to their rightful owners, something even more terrifying was about to happen.

"How many do you have now?" Tianming asked.

"Six!" the Saintdragon Emperor excitedly said. Long Xiqian also had one, so altogether they had seven. Coupled with the two that Long Wanying held, they now had nine in total, more than the seven they’d had initially. The only one left was probably in the hands of the sun emperor. Tears streamed down his face as he said, "Nine is already enough! We can activate the full power of the formations around the mountains! Tianming, I need you to hold your ground—I'll immediately activate the Aeonic Infinidragon Formation!"

That was a grade-eight divine formation and among the most powerful in all of Orderia, save for the astralguard formation that protected the star as a whole. While it was fixed in one location, its defensive capabilities could rival those of the Divine Sun Palace!

"Alright!" Once the formation was activated, the sect would be able to make a complete comeback without being held back by the Veildragon Palace. This was the prelude to a grand victory, and they only needed one last nudge!

"Celestial orderians!" Tianming piloted his giant and charged toward the battlefield. Yin Chen had already told him about the location of Qingyu without needing Tianming's explicit instruction. He charged in that direction, trampling the celestial orderians and leaving a trail of blood and corpses. Then a metal dragon came burrowing out of the ground, charging toward the Sunscorch Guard's perimeter, much to Li Yunxi's panic.

"Goddess, you have to leave, quickly!" she cried, panicking. Their army was crumbling and the best she could do now was pave a way with the elite guards she had. What was most worrying, however, was that Qingyu was hugging that black-clad youth and looking back at her with a cold smile.

Li Yunxi turned around and saw a huge metal dragon crashing into her totems and sending her flying. By the time she got back up, Qingyu and Lingfeng were gone. "Ugh...." She looked up and saw the white-haired girl in the palm of the giant.

"Celestial orderians, drop your weapons! Otherwise, I'll kill your goddess!" rang a booming voice across the entire battlefield. Naturally, Tianming wouldn't kill his own sister, but they didn't know that so he exploited their ignorance. Qingyu was billed as the ultimate treasure of the celestial orderians, after all.

The remaining celestial orderian forces completely crumbled, much to the surprise of the seventy million troops of the Myriad Solar Sects that were spectating from afar. They were already mired in shame, having been infected by the passionate fighting spirit exuded by the Ninedragon Army and the hundred thousand Dragon Imperials.

"What manner of cuntery is this?!" rang a cry. Everyone turned to look and saw the Northdipper Swordsage leading millions of swordpupils to join the fight with his stone sword raised. "The celestial orderians have broken the peace, attacked the territory of the Myriad Solar Sects, and attempted to undermine our allies' sect! As the leader of the Empyrean Sword Sect, I can't allow that to continue happening! I call upon the alliance to fight to right the wrongs that have been wrought on the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect! Those who heed my call, charge in with me!"

First, a wave of stupor spread out across the group. But when the army of swordpupils finally joined the fight, the passions of the entire group were sparked.

"What are we waiting for? Go!"

"That's right! What's the big deal about the celestial orderians anyway? Fuck them all!"

The army of seventy million finally joined the fray, tilting the odds even more. First, there was the nova source giant and the hundred thousand Dragon Imperials, then there was the defection of the Veildragon Palace, who cut off the escape route of the celestial orderians. And now they even had the formerly idle spectators to deal with. Death seemed imminent for all of them. What was worse was how the Myriaddragon Mountains began shaking as the formation was activated. Their end was nigh! Formation spirit threads manifested, wrapping around every dragon beastmaster and their beasts—billions of them in total. Once the power began flowing, the mountains rumbled even more, forming a crater into which the celestial orderians were forced.

"Exterminate the celestial orderians!"

That ear-shaking war cry could be heard all across the battlefield. Countless divine patterns began emerging all over the rocks and boulders as the formation enveloped the battlefield in an instant!
