Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 3687

Thanks to Bai Ye’s infant souls and the ability to be able to return to see Zi Zhen at any time, Tianming no longer hesitated. It would be just like the time when she was in Antiquitas Mortis. All he needed to do was to cross a single Order Formation, which he already had control of, along with the Myriadpath Celestial Formation. Though he had been fighting alone for a long time, he finally had reliable allies again—even his sister! It was truly bliss.

"Our family’s path of advancement will be in your hands!" Tianming said to her one final time.

"Leave it to me." Zi Zhen had obtained a grade-six overflow fragment from the wonderian sisters and that dead Luori, so it shouldn’t be an issue for her to advance to the sixth level. How powerful would she be then, especially when coupled with her ninehall eyes? Not to mention, unlike Tianming, Bai Ye, and Moran, her combat capabilities didn’t seem to be restricted by where she was. She would be just as helpful as a reinforcement no matter where she found herself.

"See you!" Everyone waved goodbye to Zi Zhen at the eye of heaven that led toward Antiquitas Mortis. Behind her, the wonderian sisters kept their heads low; they would be helping her deal with other wonderians.

Apart from the two infant souls within the wonderian sisters’ brains, Tianming took the remaining seven and had them reform into Bai Ye. "Will your abilities decrease with two fewer infant souls?"

"Of course! Wouldn’t yours decrease if you lost two limbs?" Bai Ye said within his brain.

Once they left God Domain One, the both of them returned to their normal selves. Killing a sixth-level overflower from the Sundown Pantheon in an instant seemed just like a pipe dream.

"Once we reach the imperial capital, I’ll send my soul seeds into the astral brains of your subjects. Make sure they don’t resist it. Even though your little bugs in the imperial capital are puny, they’re still barely useful!" Bai Ye said.

Tianming didn’t think that the two million cultivators of the imperial capital were only small fry.

"Even so, your dynasty has great potential. Once your omnisentient power spreads all throughout the Million Mundi, you’ll have enough of a foundation to push your upper limits to rival the entire Ancient Oldgod Domain!" Bai Ye said.

"That’s a given. I already have experience succeeding in the Infinitum Mundus. I also have a professional propaganda team working on it. I think I’ll be able to push my dynasty to the limits much faster than I can in the Ancient Oldgod Domain," Tianming said. To think that the Million Mundi was only one of the many Lower Star Ruins that exist. He decided to rename it as the Tianming Star Ruin to differentiate it from the others.

"There appears to be a region many times larger than the Million Mundi between the different Lower Star Ruins called the Frontier Starscape.... The Blissful Union doesn’t have a star map of other Lower Star Ruins. I wonder if I can access them using the Flameyellow Divine Path." If he could, his propaganda team would have their work cut out for them!

"If I’m able to conquer all eighty-one Lower Star Ruins, it’ll be the same as surrounding the Upper Star Ruin. The big city will be completely encircled by the smaller villages around it! I wonder how much territory all the Lower Star Ruins and Frontier Starscape would amount to, especially contrasted against the Upper Star Ruin’s...." Tianming had a feeling that even though there were only eighty-one Lower Star Ruins, the actual territory would easily be ten thousand times more than what the Upper Star Ruin had. The Frontier Starscape itself consisted of the boundless dark void between the ruins. Even if there was the occasional star world in it, they would be absolute lone stars.𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"How tiny a human is in comparison to the universe as a whole! And that’s only if we look at the lower levels of the cosmic aether, Lower and Upper Star Ruins, and the Ancient Oldgod Domain. All of them belong to the Realm of Order. There’s still a Realm of Chaos on the other side of the Welkin plane that has a completely different kind of nova source...." The vastness of the universe was a horror in its own right.

"I’m the Emperor of the Tianming Star Ruin. Hopefully, I’ll be able to rule all of the Lower Star Ruins!" Tianming’s ambitions soared.

"Aren’t you nothing but a king of the sewers? What’s to brag about?" Bai Ye chided.

"A king’s still a king! It isn’t like those folks from the Upper Star Ruin dare to come down here. I’m effectively able to do as I please."

In terms of absolute territory, the Upper Star Ruin was probably only as vast as the Million Mundi, considering that each mundus contained tens of millions of stars. Imagine how many stars existed across all the Lower Star Ruins. The Upper Star Ruin might not have nearly as many stars, but each one was incredibly powerful!

"Let’s go home." It took much less time than Tianming had imagined. First, he went to Antiquitas Mortis through the Order Formation, and from there to the imperial capital through the Myriadpath Celestial Formation. It felt like a shorter journey than traveling to the eye of heaven from the Order College. In almost a flash, the three of them and the Soulfiend returned to the imperial capital. That instant, all the nearby dormant Yin Chens awoke. The omnisentient threads that had vanished reconnected with Tianming.

"The Galactic Emperor’s back!" Every subject noticed his presence through the omnisentient threads. They were incredibly surprised and excited, having thought that Tianming would be gone for decades or centuries, only for him to return in a few months, which seemed like just a few days for astral gods with their lifespans.

"Barely any time’s passed for more omnisentient threads to form across the Million Mundi. Looks like I’m only slightly stronger than I was when I killed Zhoutian Shenhai."

He had just assessed his capabilities using the omnisentient threads. Without them, he was a seventh-level foundationeer who wouldn’t lose to anyone that wasn’t an overflower, thanks to his seven lifebound beasts. With the threads and Bai Ye, who could utilize omnisentient soul power, he would be like a third-level overflower. If he included the omnisentient threads he had in God Domain One, he would be able to fight sixth-level overflowers! Their soul defenses also played a strong role in that determination.

"I can send out an infant soul and turn it into soul seeds that’ll follow you around to speed up the process," Bai Ye said. It was already drafting plans to become a gigantic soul beast that would span the boundless universe.

"Can a single infant soul of yours split up into that many soul seeds?" Tianming asked.

"The more lifeforms there are, the stronger I’ll be and the more seeds I’ll be able to split up into," Bai Ye said.

"Ah, got it." Just like the red dust, Bai Ye could seed some people and duplicate more and more soul seeds. Primordial Chaos Beasts had incomprehensible abilities like those.

"Let’s try it in the imperial capital first, then." Tianming immediately told everyone that Bai Ye was his lifebound beast and that he would borrow their soul power, then asked them not to worry. Being his subjects, they naturally had absolute trust in him, so they fully obeyed his orders. Unlike Bai Ye’s control over the specters, Tianming didn’t need to brainwash his people to get them to do what he wanted.

Millions of soul seeds were scattered all over the imperial capital, unleashing the soul beast across it! Bai Ye, who had been weakened after leaving God Domain One, immediately grew stronger once more.𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Humans are still the best! Their souls are simply much more filling than those of the specters in the Ancient Oldgod Domain," Bai Ye said.

"That’s all thanks to my upstanding character and charisma!" Tianming said.
