Beastmaster of the Ages

The little fish of the Azurespirit seemed to be crying out in despair as the dreamless celestial emperor continued pulling. Tianming was completely mired in despair. Even with the slaughter of fifty million celestial orderians, the sun emperor and dreamless celestial emperor still posed a deathly threat to him. Was there really no way for him to live? He would never accept it!

If this is my fate, I’ll defy it! Even if it would hurt to lose one eye today, he would remember how powerless it felt. It was just like how he had been treated before this all began. Even so, that wouldn’t change the fact that he had played a crucial part in the deaths of elites like Li Xiaoyan and the traitorous Dragon Imperials! However, where could he run? There was only Orderia, nowhere else!

”Accept it!” The dreamless celestial emperor gave one final tug. By now, blood grudge had completely surrounded them and the entire Radix World Tree was dyed red. Feiling’s flower had been completely consumed by blood grudge. Now, Tianming was pressed hard against her flower. He could feel her heartbeat grow faster and faster. There seemed to be a boundless rage within her, which was magnified by the blood grudge that seemed to take the form of her face.

The blood flower began shaking and let out an ancient and desolate aura. Tianming started feeling its effects. He could sense the raw emotion coming from the one he yearned to be with day and night. It felt like the deathly grudge of the tens of millions of fallen, all blended together and compressed into this little flower. The flower petals then propped Tianming up while he was still in the dreamless celestial emperor’s grasp. With his third eye, he could clearly see the figure in the center of the blooming red flower. She was consuming all the blood grudge that came from all those people and lifebound beasts.

”What in the world is this?!” The dreamless celestial emperor was one step short of completely subduing the Azurespirit, yet these changes completely startled her. She knew the tree was Tianming’s lifebound beast; it was one thing for it to be absorbing blood grudge, but how could a person appear to sprout from it?

The figure rose, surrounded by blood grudge. She shot a cold glare at the dreamless celestial emperor, who could feel her endless rage! ”Who in the world are you?! How dare you bully my man?!” said an enraged voice. Tianming almost teared up at hearing ’my man’. It seemed that no matter how it turned out today, Feiling had finally come back to life after her first series of Eternal Nirvanas. He had been waiting for this day for far too long!

”Hmph, ignorant filth.” The dreamless celestial emperor still thought that Feiling was just part of the lifebound beast. No matter what the blood grudge was, it wasn’t a real concern. She looked back down and continued what she was doing, further enraging the bloody figure.

”I demanded that you let go!” She raised her hand and thrust her fingers toward the dreamless celestial emperor, her nails coated in blood as if all the blood grudge had gathered in them for an instant. Then something terrifying happened. Tianming could feel that the blood grudge was concentrated in an infinitesimally small point! The blood grudge around her figure even began receding, much to his surprise. It was a sign that she could control it, instead of being consumed by it! She had been absorbing blood grudge to fulfill the conditions of her Nirvana Rebirth instead of being consumed by it!

The finger seemed to twist the space surrounding it with the sheer power of the tens of millions of dead souls contained within. Seeing that, the dreamless celestial emperor’s expression immediately changed. She had underestimated Feiling, or rather the hellish power of death generated by a battlefield such as this.

”If you don’t leave, I’ll make you.” Her hate-filled words sounded like a nightmare to the dreamless celestial emperor. The tiny red dot at her fingertip turned into a concentrated beam that shot toward her.

”Ugh!” She used Tianming as a shield and let go of his eyeball. The pain finally left him as the Greenspark Tower healed his injury, but the red beam was traveling toward him. Would it really hit him, though? The red beam seemed like a powerful living being, immediately circling around him and targeting the dreamless celestial emperor once more.

”What?!” She let go of Tianming and tried to back off, but it was too late. The beam had pierced her squarely through the chest. ”Ugh!”

The instant the beam went through her chest, boundless blood grudge permeated every single albus of her body, turning her completely red and bloody. While Feiling could channel the blood grudge around her, the dreamless celestial emperor couldn’t; it was making her astralforce go wild. Tianming had only suffered surface level corrosion from it, yet his mind had felt its effects, to say nothing of what the dreamless celestial emperor was experiencing now.

”Aaaaagh!” She let out a pained cry as blood grudge came surging out of her mouth like a fountain.
