Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2938 - Shared Destiny

The radiance of four astral giants' shone brightly through the sea of pink flames. Even the folks all the way in the Sky Palace Formation were able to witness the sight. The Flameyellow Coffin continued to rumble, applying immense pressure on Wudi and Xiaodao.

"Brother, let's go!" The two of them charged toward the three foundationeers. The skies lit up as the Sun's rage took form as a tidal wave of flames. It was such a stunning sight that nobody was able to miss it.

Explosions, flaming storms, and sword ki blasted in all directions! Wudi and Xiaodao were performing amazingly well, being able to hold up against three opponents. Not much more than a decade ago they had been normal gods, not even astral gods. One of them was a mere etherean of Gladeus that Shenxi Xingtian could easily crush, yet they were currently fighting on the foundationeer level!

"How's the fight going?"

"I don't know! I can't tell. It's happening too deep in the Flameyellow Guard Formation!"

"The commotion is far too big, even from all the way there. Is this the level of fights reges mundi engage in?"

"Who could've imagined that a mere ether-class world like this would have fighters as powerful as reges mundi?"

"Even the legendary rex mundi of Skydperished before the war really started! Shenxi Xingtian, too!"

"The men of the Sun are truly insane. They’re all heroes in their own right! Li Tianming, especially, is already able to kill someone close to a rex mundi in power, and he's only a hundred years old! What can he not achieve if he's allowed to grow with time?"

Never in history had the denizens of the Sun been so taken aback. And their excitement and fighting spirit only continued increasing Tianming's combat potential. The power of faith was still growing, pushing his limits ever higher! Every single person felt like their destinies had been tied together, and all of them hoped with everything they had that Tianming would grow stronger! That was why he had given them the credit of killing Ba Xiao and didn't take it himself.

"You two! Show us what you can do!"

"Please, don't lose to them!"

"We don't want to die! The Sun’s just sprouted! We don't want our story to end here!"

The masses held hands and watched the skies above while others linked arms, only to discover that their power, even though differing in elemental aspect, seemed to link up with each other's. Trillions of people seemed to each beca cog in a gigantic symbiotic cultivation system, able to circulate energy between one another.

All that energy gathered in the sky in the smanner as energy flowing through formation spirit threads, with Tianming as the formation core! The energy that entered the formation core seemed to double, and even triple, growing ever abundant!

All of it was thanks to the new spark of hope that Tianming had brought with the death of Ba Xiao. The fact that trillions of people were able to resonate in their shared destiny of certain destruction and their refusal to give up on survival created a miracle like no other!

The denizens of the Sun all prayed together. Each of them had a story that told Tianming they were no mere statistic. Their lives, even if they were only a few centuries long, were filled with love, hate, joy, vengeance, and all kinds of other spices, no matter whether they were children, elderly, or even lifebound beasts!

The energy of lifebound beasts entering his body through the cultivation path of sovereignhood was something that Tianming hadn't expected. There were tens of trillions of them! The faith of the lifebound beasts was transmitted into him, allowing the energy capacity that he could manage to skyrocket even further!

While most people didn't care for the power of the masses, Tianming did. And thanks to that, he was beginning to experience rulership on a whole new level: sharing the destiny of his subjects! With such a world and such a cultivation method, he felt his astral organs surge to the limit!

"If this is all I’ll have achieved after my whole life's effort, it would've been worth it! I’ll gladly give everything!" That was the only achievement he could ever want. He felt like he was about to explode.

Thanks to the new influx of energy and faith, his hollow streams of order began to condense and mature to a level of titanic tenacity. They shed their impurities, forming stronger and stronger structures that could weather more and more pressure before eventually achieving absolute perfection.

In fact, the streams of order continued growing even without additional order fragments.

All of it had happened within a single day; that was what it meant to be a sovereign, a Primordial God-Emperor! He’d chosen the right path and had not a single trace of regret. Everything he’d done so far had led him in the right direction.

Tianming, going against Xiaodao and Wudi's wishes for him to escape to safety with the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, said, "Godfather, Old Lin, even if I return to the Sky Palace Formation now, your sacrifice today would still have been in vain as long as the Starshatter Formation still stands! It would be meaningless!

"I was able to kill Ba Xiao, and that shows I'm capable of holding my own in a fight to the death! There's no need forto run! There's no need forto fear! Letlead our people in a fight to the death... a fight for our survival! We’ll defend our hand each other, as one!"

He ignored everything else they said and headed their way at full speed! The enemy had lost a foundationeer, with Ba Xiao now dead. There was no better chance for a risky gambit like this than while Mister Taihe was still busy setting up the Starshatter Formation. Not to mention, all the effort of trapping Demoness Yin would have gone to waste if he didn't take advantage of this opportunity while she was still trapped.

He changed the course of the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb without a trace of hesitation. The nine-headed dragon, escorted by flameyellow fiends, traced a path of destructive flames through the sky toward Xiaodao and Wudi.

Tianming saw four linked foundation fortresses ahead of him, seemingly reinforcing one another. Within them were four astral giants and the Thousand Foundation Divine Puppet, engaged in a chaotic melee. "I'm coming! Let’s kill them all!"
