Beastmaster of the Ages

The image was silent for a moment before it continued, “You’re right. I used to think he was on the fence, but now that he’s appeared on Lin Xiao’s side it means he’s an enemy. It won’t be safe even if we take down the Lin Clan if that hidden ailment isn’t excised.”

“If so, let me handle it,” Chi Hun said.

“Confident?”

“It should be fine! Lin Xiao isn’t much. As for that fellow, would I be worthy of being the tenth rex mundi if I feared him?” Chi Hun’s eyes were sinister. He had been enticed by this tempting opportunity. If he missed it, Lin Xiaodao would be the hardest person for the ebons to kill in the future.

“That person’s always been very meticulous. He’s clearly risking his life for Lin Feng this time. It’s indeed a good chance.”

In the end, such a situation would be decided by who was stronger. For both parties, the other side was an enticing piece of meat.

“Those two must die!” Chi Hun exited the Nethersoul, his eyes full of killing intent. He could see that Lin Xiaodao had the conviction to stake it all in his eyes. Now that Lin Xiaodao had come, the chances of Lin Xiao getting away were much higher if they didn’t have an Infinitum Duel.

“I’ll take them both on by myself in an Infinitum Duel,” Chi Hun. the tenth rex mundi, announced with a smile.

Mount Taia shook as the pressure shifted to the Lin Clan members.

“Let’s go, Second Patriarch,” Lin Xiaodao turned and extended a hand to Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao looked up and looked at the ‘young man’.

“I thought about it for quite a while before deciding I couldn’t let down my surname.” Lin Xiaodao grinned. Although his face was very dirty, it couldn’t hide his radiant smile.

“Alright fine, I’ll make this bet with you!” Lin Xiao’s fighting spirit surged.

“You’ve misunderstood, Second Patriarch.” Lin Xiaodao continued smiling.

“Misunderstood?”

“The reason I dragged you in was to make this duel more tempting to them.” Lin Xiaodao peered at Chi Hun. “Really, you’re just here to be the audience! You get front-row seats, isn’t that an honor?”

Lin Xiao was stunned at this arrogance. Lin Xiaodao’s smile looked very ‘naive’, but the older man noticed some things in his eyes that the Swordgod Lin Clan had lacked for generations. They were the confidence of a genius and the pride of a swordsman!

“After today, my name, Lin Xiaodao, shall assuredly shake the stars of the Infinitum Mundus.”

……

At the Infinitum Swordsea.

“Lin Feng, where do you think you’re going?” Lin Yun laughed as he gave chase. It didn’t matter how many Yin Chens blocked him, they were all ground to dust in a moment. A gap of thousands of years of cultivation couldn’t be bridged.

Tianming could only speed through the swordsea as fast as he could. He passed through blood and corpses, all from the Lin Clan while their pain and anger entered his ears.

And most of all, Lin Yun’s laughter was growing closer. He was toying with him!

“For science, I want to see how fast you can run without legs!” Two streaks of sword light, moving faster than Tianming’s limits, shot forward.

Tianming only felt a burst of pain in his legs as he tumbled away. When he looked down, he saw that his legs were gone.

“Dammit!” Tianming still hadn’t grown his right hand back, and now his legs had been lost as well. “Lin Yun! If I have a chance, I swear I’ll eat you alive!” He continued running. His only source of confidence was that green light in his right wrist and the mysterious ring on his neck.

Lin Yun was much happier now. He roared with laughter as he caught up to Tianming and reached out toward his neck like one would a baby chick. His cosmoforce wrapped around Tianming and forced his astralforce to a halt. “How wondrous, order really can’t stop you and I have to do it physically.”

Lin Yun squeezed Tianming’s neck and brought him to his eye level. “Little mongrel, any smart words now?”

Tianming just laughed.

Lin Yun increased the force constricting Tianming and snapped, “You can still laugh?”

Tianming was in great pain now, but he refused to speak. He was simply waiting for his chance. At least Feiling and the rest were safe now. And Etherean Gladeus had appeared! At least his grandparents were still alive and the Dongshen Clan’s guardian formation still stood!

However, the blood feud continued deepening.

“How perfect. I’ll torment you for a while before handing you over to Rex Mundi Tianxi!” Honestly, Lin Yun was reluctant to hand Tianming over. He knew that Tianxi and the alien monster were holding each other back, or else the brat wouldn’t have lived so long.

At the council hall, a tragedy of sorrow and helplessness played out as people killed their fellows. Tianming saw it all with his three eyes. “I must change this place. I must overcome this tribulation!” His conviction remained strong; he had to become a god, an astral god and finally a cosmic god!

Many Lin Clan disciples could only watch in disbelief. Everyone involved was a relative, so who should they help?

“Perhaps such a clan needs a world god too!”

A person’s experiences were always their greatest treasure. Many times, a crisis could be solved using one’s experience.

“My caelum…” Tianming could see that his caelum was shining. And through its eyes, he saw an endless sea above the sky. “Is that the ordered sea?”

However, he was in the middle of a life and death struggle!

Lin Yun was still maniacally laughing. Tianming couldn’t understand why he hated him so much—was it jealousy? Regardless, Tianming’s rage had consumed him. He could feel the mysterious ring on his neck beginning to heat up. Even his albi that had turned into copies of the Order Relic were resonating with his anger, vibrating at a high frequency.

“I…” Tianming felt like he was about to explode, as if the entire world was on fire.

Lin Yun continued laughing.

Tianming saw a golden figure racing over.

Lin Jianxing had arrived as well!

Tianming’s heart rate sped up.

At that moment, Yin Chen suddenly passed over news that tipped Tianming over the boiling point.

It said…

It said!

“Etherean Gladeus… has slain… Chi Hun!”

The tenth rex mundi had fallen!

Even Lin Jie, Lin Yun, and the rest would bow and scrape to that figure; he was an overlord of Ebonia who no one dared annoy.

However, he had fallen to a member of the Lin Clan in an Infinitum Duel!

Those words made all of the heat in Tianming finally explode outward. He roared as his body began to swell up and expand.
