Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2531 - Myriadstar Zone

Lin Xiaodao poured Tianming a cup of wine. It was an incredibly colorful and fragrant liquid that wafted so strongly that it could be smelled from the entire Skyhold Palace. Calling it divine nectar would be no overstatement. Merely a whiff was enough to make one feel like their whole body was undergoing a transformation. Tianming gave it a sip and immediately felt a comforting warmth spread all throughout his body, even down to his bones. "It's damned fine!"

"Why, of course. This Dragon Piss is the finest Gladeus has to offer," Gongyang Yan said, shooting him a thumbs-up.

Tianming laughed. "Master, didn't you say ether-class herbs were used to brew it? Why is it called that? That makes it sound like there's actual piss within."

"Well, that's because there actually is. I personally went underground to squeeze out the piss out of an ether-class wildbeast called the fragrant bluedragon for the brew! That's where this magnificent scent comes from. It truly is a blessing that we have one of those dragons in Gladeus. Thankfully, there's quite a lot where that came from."

Tianming spat it out before he finished swallowing all of it.

"Fool! That's precious! How could you waste it?!" Lin Xiaodao snapped, waving his hand to gather up the wine and force it into Tianming's mouth. "You must savor fine wine! Oh, young one, there's still much for you to learn!"

"Wait, fuck!" He gurgled audibly as his vision faded to black.

"Yes, that's it!" Gongyang Yan cheered the sight from the side.

Tianming began to doubt the meaning of life as the alcohol was forced into him. The two seniors continued to sing praises to the wine and wax poetic about life.action

"Master... How are things with the ebons looking?" Tianming asked.

"Everything's in control. Apart from a few leaders, Master Chen managed to locate most of the key figures for us. I made sure to suck them clean of their wealth and caeli. We also managed to decrease the number of subterranean wildbeasts by ten percent. Within thirty years, Gladeus will be cleansed of all wildbeasts! Damn, I'm too powerful for my own good!" Lin Xiaodao wasn't shy in his boasts.

"What's the point if you don't even have a girlfriend? Learn from your disciple! He's made Skyhold Palace his love nest," Gongyang Yan said.

Lin Xiaodao almost coughed out blood when he heard that and glared at her. He patted Tianming on the shoulder and said, "That's right! I did what you asked me to back then. I sent ten million Master Chens to the Myriadstar Zone. It has begun spreading out over there."

"I'm aware," Tianming said.

"Ah, of course. Master Chen's your lifebound beast, after all! Silly old me. Well, at least I have my good looks to make up for it, or someone like me will never get anywhere in life."

The Myriadstar Zone was rather close to Gladeus, so it was still within Yin Chen's range. It could operate its bodies in both places simultaneously.

That place is crucial to me! The Myriadstar Zone is the only place in the Infinitum Mundus where there were unclaimed nova source worlds. The Distant Star Patrol of the Infinitum Mundus would first seal off unclaimed nova source worlds with transport formations before moving them to the Myriadstar Zone, after which it would be distributed to Ebonia and other fifth-class nova source worlds. In other words, the zone was a public treasury of the Infinitum Bodhimanda.

As Gladeus was located close to it, its ruler was also tasked with defending it. That was why Tianming had some Yin Chens be sent there. Should the revolting ebons drop the unclaimed nova sources on Gladeus, it would cause quite a bit of trouble. Normally, unclaimed nova source worlds couldn't move as quickly as Gladeus could, so collisions were unlikely to begin with. However, Tianming said it would be best for them to be extra prepared. Not to mention, he also had his own plans for the place.

Master said that the nova sources there add up to about ten thousand times the volume of heliacal-class worlds, so essentially the volume of Gladeus. Volume aside, Gladeus had way more nova source content than ten thousand heliacal-class worlds of much better quality. It wasn't something brute numbers of unclaimed nova sources could just recreate. However, ten thousand of them would still be quite useful for the Flameyellow Imperial Star.

Tianming had his ambitions, and one of them was to strengthen the sun. That was why the Myriadstar Zone drew him in. However, this was no time to take anything from it. The stars within were considered to be the wealth of the Infinitum Bodhimanda, so taking from it meant going against the ebons and Yi Daiyan. However, he knew that chaos was coming to the Infinitum Bodhimanda, and people might not watch the treasury as well during those times. Just because the sun was cloaked now didn't mean it couldn't show up in the future. Either way, it didn't hurt to send Yin Chen there to scout it out.

I wonder if the sun can become ether class once it absorbs all the nova sources there... While ether-class worlds were ten thousand times the size of heliacal ones, that wasn't all. The nova source had to be hugely compressed for even better cosmic impulses to form, creating a formation with complicated divine celestial patterns. Even if it's just ether class, it'd be much better than before. The restoration of the Flameyellow Imperial Star was still far away, but if he had the opportunity, Tianming wanted to rule over a top-class nova source world like Lin Xiaodao. He looked into the distance, cup in hand.

"Aaaah!" Gongyang Yan's shout interrupted Tianming's thoughts, giving him a start.

"What was that about?!" Tianming snapped.

"I have good news for you!"

"What is it?"

"My primordium stockpile is full! I'll be able to use my soul hair to inject it into your soul, strengthening it until it reaches the level of the fifth holy soul!"

"Darn, is there a more elegant way to do it?"

"Just look at your Uncle Gongyang. Do I scream elegant to you?"

Tianming almost wanted to beg her to not give up on her femininity.

"Are you ready, boy?" Her soul hair stood tall and straight while she snickered like a mean uncle.

"Alright." Tianming nodded. It was said that most first-level simulacra happened at the fifth holy soul level, so he looked forward to that quite a bit.
