Beastmaster of the Ages

A cold aura filled everyone’s hearts. All of a sudden, the boy saw a white point of light. ”What’s that?”

”I’m the dandelion of justice!” said a voice from within the ship.

Dandelion? The little boy was stunned.

”There’s something over here too!”

”And over there!”

Tens of millions of white dots appeared before them, all of them being Bai Ye’s soul seeds. They gathered together and formed a cloudy depiction of Tianming.

”It’s him!” Many people immediately recognized him; they could still see Tianming’s main body within the Cosmic God Palace. The one that had in fact shown up was Bai Ye’s infant soul!

”Ahem!” Bai Ye cleared its throat, causing the mist to undulate.

Everyone in the three ships blankly stared at the infant souls.

”Greetings, everyone! I’m Li Tianming. Thanks to Xing Daoyin, all of you are gathered here. Otherwise it’d be hard to talk to all of you at once!” Bai Ye said, hands on its waist in a badass pose.

”Hi....” The slaves were still rather taken aback.

”Even though it’s our first meeting, let me show you something!” Bai Ye’s body dissipated and turned into a magnificent scroll that depicted a world—the Sun! Long Qian and the others were depicted in the scroll. Every one of them followed the scroll, Long Qian, and the rest to the Sun to see it for what it was: a world that resonated with their bloodline. They saw Long Qian absorb ordered manna, as well as the oath she had made there with Tianming.

Home! It was a word that they had initially been unfamiliar with, but now they all had a firm concept of it. It was the word that Xing Daoyin had tried to corrupt. The word that had immediately caused the doors to their hearts to slam open. Everything that happened in the Sun entered their hearts through Bai Ye’s voice. Bai Ye had more than enough time to do all that!

”Where should I start? Maybe at Infinitum! From the rise of the Galactic Emperor! The Tianming Dynasty! Maybe even the flameyellow divinities!” Bai Ye got into the role of the storyteller. Being a natural drama queen, it had finally found a vocation for itself.

”Start brainwa—I mean, let’s start giving a motivational speech!” A true public figure would have to use speech and rhetoric to move (read: infest) the hearts of their audiences. The tales of the Sun, Flameyellow, the Galactic Emperor, home, future, resistance, and hope went on nonstop. The stories flowed into the five million descendants of the flameyellow divinities. Even though they hadn’t heard of anything like them before, they felt familiar, as if that was how things should be.

”We aren’t a slave race... we’re descendants of the flameyellow divinities....”

”We used to be the rulers of the Upper Star Ruin... the firmament....”

The truths felt like fleeting dreams.

”Brothers! Sisters! In me flows the same blood as flows in you! Open the doors to your hearts and let me in!” Bai Ye called out, though the sudden shift in mood caused some of them to feel resistance.

”Ahem, nevermind! You should keep doing what you’re doing!” Bai Ye immediately changed its tune and kept showing them what Tianming had asked it to show. It no longer forcefully implanted soul seeds into them.

Five million seventh-level foundationeers would be a huge boost to me! Their bloodlines are incredibly potent, far exceeding the specters of God Domain One. Their intelligence is also reflected in the sharpness of their souls! Even though there’s only five million of them, once I resonate with them, they’d be more powerful than the thirty million specters of God Domain One! Bai Ye wouldn’t know the true extent until the resonance occurred. However, it was shocked when it entered their worlds. Each foundationeer could replace six or more specters!

Thanks to the bloodline resonance and shared grudge, once they stand together with Old Li, their rampaging hearts will bring him more omnisentient power than the thirty million specters ever could! How terrifying...! It would be like having three God Domain Ones! Bai Ye had hoped that they would be enough to make up for ten million specters, but had found three times the amount instead!

These people are far too angry, and all that rage can be converted into inner power that’s perfect for Old Li! Bai Ye had begun referring to Tianming as Old Li instead of Little Li. Dammit! It’s too powerful! They infected me with their fervor before I could even instill it in them!

Bai Ye’s soul seeds entered their astral brains. It felt like it didn’t even need to say much more; once they heard the truth from Tianming, including the fourth infant soul that had been sent to the ten thousand dragonoids in the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, the soul seeds had begun infecting their sentiments.

”Agh! I’m so angry! I want to slaughter them all! I want the corpses to pile up in the Middlekin Star Ruin and the Midsky Tristars! Spare nobody! Kill them all! I’ll tear them all apart! Aaaaagh!” Bai Ye howled, filled with blind rage. It was no longer able to influence the five million present. Every single one of their gazes burned with a rage that came forth from the depths of their heart.

”So Long Qian only bowed down to buy the Galactic Emperor time!” When the notion of the Galactic Emperor of Destiny entered their minds, the embers in their hearts burst into gigantic flames. Even the dragonoids in the ship had only just found out about it all. Tianming had picked the perfect moment when they’d been at their lowest to bring them the brightest ray of hope! Even though he had used tricks to achieve that, it was effective nonetheless!

Bai Ye ended up being influenced by the people it had tried to influence. Its infant souls were burning hot! When its soul seeds finished entering everybody’s astral brains and established a resonance, they all turned and looked at the white-haired youth in the Cosmic God Palace. Countless black-and-gold dragon-like omnisentient threads began forming.

”Mom! I, Long Yuan, will dedicate my life and die for him!” the boy said, standing up as tears of passion flowed from his eyes.

Others echoed the same sentiment, and Bai Ye was rather flabbergasted to see it. A huge change began to occur within Tianming.

And continued to applaud and laugh. ”We really have to thank the devas for bringing all of them to Old Li’s side on a silver platter!”
