Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 3350 - It’s Pathkeeper Li Again?

It’d been a long time since Tianming had been to the Grand Myriadpath Ruins. When he appeared, he attracted quite a bit of attention.

”I remember last time, I was too afraid that Huang Daosheng would take out his anger on the cleaner, so I didn’t dare to interact with him. But now things have changed.” With his now-exalted status, Tianming was no longer afraid that someone might harm Cleaner Grandpa out of jealousy.

However, the cleaner was clearly connected to Jian Qinghe, and with so much attention on Tianming now, he didn’t want the Three Exalted Houses to guess that he had any connection with Jian Qinghe and the others. Therefore, he still didn’t dare to approach too close.

As he drew closer, Tianming glanced at the cleaner from afar, seeing him leaning against the Grand Myriadpath Ruins. He was holding a pen and feverishly writing, clearly immersed in writing an exciting part of his story as his cloudy eyes were glowing.

”What book is Grandpa writing lately?” Tianming craned his neck to look over and saw the title on the cover: Super Son-in-law: I Have a Pair of Twin Flowers!

”Good grief, is that an indirect jab at me?” Tianming couldn’t help but laugh. ”Hopefully, I’m just overthinking!” After all, how could Eminent Jiguang and Suishen Yao be considered ’twin flowers’?

Tianming took another look at the old man, who was completely oblivious to the world around him. Not wanting to disturb his creative flow, Tianming flew over the Grand Myriadpath Ruins, heading directly to the highest point of the fortuna-class astralship, his destination the upper ruins.

Only the top hundred geniuses of the astralscape as ranked on the Fortuna and Maniverse Rankings could enter there. Tianming had once yearned to reach the middle ruins when he was in the lower ruins, but he hadn’t expected to bypass the middle ruins’ eminent caeli entirely and go straight to the upper ruins.

There were few people at the entrance of the upper ruins. They were mostly familiar to him, especially the hundred on the Fortuna Ranking. Nearly all of them had participated in the Prehistoric Path, and some had been defeated by Tianming in the Ascension Colosseum.

The Three Exalted Houses made up the majority.

Now the young people of House Suishen mostly saw Tianming as one of their own, while House Qitian remained neutral, occasionally chatting with him. House Yumo, however, glared at him with hostility and dared not approach.

Tianming had a clear goal. After casually greeting a few younger members of House Suishen at the entrance, he stepped into the upper ruins. The upper ruins, while not as vast as the lower ruins, was still quite large.

Within it were only the caeli of past valley lords, including those from Houses Qitian, Suishen, and Yumo. There was more diversity than in the Suishen Ancestral Hall. So, for Tianming, the middle and lower ruins were inferior to the Suishen Ancestral Hall, but the upper ruins suited him better.

The Suishen Ancestral Hall existed to allow the younger generation of House Suishen to access the highest-level caeli earlier, free of the restrictions of Myriadpath Valley rules.

I have many orders, and my primary system is as a beastmaster. The caeli of House Qitian is particularly important to me! Therefore, Tianming decided that his future cultivation would mainly take place in the upper ruins.

After entering, he headed deep into the darkness. At the same time, he unleashed the power of his eight orders, seeking resonance with the caeli of past valley lords.

”These people were once the strongest in the astralscape!” The accumulation of time had gathered a significant number of the former number ones.

Soon, he noticed incredibly radiant caeli appearing before him one after another. Each of them was far superior to the caeli in the lower ruins, and they came in all sorts of colors and systems. Different in type, but equally powerful and vast, the caeli recorded the cultivation and understanding of the world by the top ancestors of Myriadpath Valley through the ages.

Although the number was less than in the lower ruins, the quality of each was incredibly high.

”Who’s causing so many valley lord caeli to resonate?”

”Isn’t that Pathkeeper Li?”

”My God...!”

The upper ruins were different from the lower ruins, because the total number of caeli there was limited, making it impossible to form a complete sea of stars. Additionally, it was extremely difficult for disciples who entered to resonate with even one valley lord caeli.

It resulted in Tianming quickly being noticed! Of the two hundred top rankers, about thirty were present. They had all been jolted out of their cultivation, their eyes widening as they watched him surrounded by valley lord caeli.

”I heard that in the lower ruins, there was also a phenomenon of numerous caeli gathering to form a star sea! Back then, the elders said it wasn’t caused by a disciple and was just an unusual phenomenon....”

”Judging from the timing, Pathkeeper Li should’ve been cultivating in the lower ruins at that time!”

”I understand now! That phenomenon back then was caused by Pathkeeper Li, too!”

”I finally understand why everyone says he’s the most terrifying monster in history....”

The truth was out! People naturally couldn’t dismiss it as false after personally witnessing it. Word quickly spread back to the Three Exalted Houses and the various august houses. From there, it spread throughout all of Myriadpath Valley.

After all, there was a large crowd gathered at the Myriadpath Celestial Formation and any small incident was quickly shared.

”Pathkeeper Li again?”

”Never a dull day with him around.”

”Folks, the mystery is solved. The caeli star sea in the lower ruins was caused by Pathkeeper Li, back when he had no status or reputation and didn’t dare to reveal it.”

”Given that phenomenon, it was inevitable that he’d rise on the Prehistoric Path.”

”People once said he had too many orders and they were too mixed, and that he was biting off more than he could chew. But now we know they’re all top-tier orders. Only such orders could cause so many valley lord caeli to resonate!”

”If you ask me, he’s the reincarnation of the collective souls of all past valley lords.”

Myriadpath Valley buzzed with discussion, and Tianming’s status and prestige soared even higher. But he remained unaware, quickly choosing a House Qitian valley lord caelum and studying their cultivation experiences to deepen his understanding of his orders.

”Qitian Fenglin, a female valley lord, truly admirable....” Tianming immersed himself in her caeli, entering her foundation fortress. Within the city, countless young bees fluttered about, each with its own unique traits. Their movements and expressions were rich with profundities, their wing and leg vibrations shifting from fast to slow.... All the order and disorder combined to form a profound whole, and that whole represented Qitian Fenglin’s extraordinary life!
