Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1978

Lifeless white flames spliced with the golden flames around it.

"Keep going. If you can hit me, I'll call uncle," the golden-haired man said as he appeared from within the fog with a mocking smile.

The three rulers of Skywolf had a chilling look on their faces. They attacked three more times, but the sun emperor appeared every single attack with that same smile that mocked their skills.

"We don't even have to pay attention to him. Let's just wipe out his people and see whether he'll still be able to smile," Empress Ying suggested.

"It's pointless no matter how many small fries we kill. Boundless is already dead, and only Redforge is still executing the massacre. I think Li Tianming will set his sights on him soon enough. If we keep this going until we lose Redforge as well, we'll have truly suffered far too many losses. The monster up above is still slaughtering our army, and every moment we delay will result in the loss of countless lives. The fact that the sun emperor dares to challenge us here means he's confident we won't be able to do anything to him!" Empress Yu paled with anger. Never had she ever been spoken to like that in her life by her peers, let alone a lowly alien from a backwater world.

"Then we'll just have him killed." Grand Emperor Starvore seemed calm, but he was already at the very brink of his patience with regard to the sun emperor. Empress Yu did indeed make a lot of sense; Skywolf urgently needed to turn this situation around. They couldn't afford to let their own die while their backs were turned on them. No matter how powerful the skywolves were, it still wasn't enough if they were unable to defeat the sun emperor.

"I'll go out. The two of you stay here and ensure that the Starvore is ready to react at all times," he said.

"You alone? The odds aren't in our favor. If the three of us head out at the same time, it might be safer for us," Empress Yu said.

"Are you saying that someone like me isn't a match for a small fry like him?" he said, glaring at her. No matter how calm he was, he wouldn’t take an insult from his woman.

"No... I just think that he's too underhanded and sneaky.... I worry that this is a trap," she weakly said.

"How about this—she'll go out with you while I hold the ship. If the two of you can pin him down, one blast from the ship should be enough. Let's end it quickly, okay? We don't have much time left," Empress Ying said. Corpses were still raining down as they spoke.

"Let's do that, then." Grand Emperor Starvore no longer had the patience to discuss it.

"According to reports, he has a coffin that's the core of the first astralguard formation. Once we take down that formation, our army will be able to shake off that monster," Empress Ying said.

"Alright," Empress Yu said with a nod. The man who tied up his long, white hair into a ponytail in front of her left the ship before she did, entering the sea of flames as burning lifeless white fire burst out from his body. His eyes shone with the radiance of more than nine thousand stars.

His lifeless white flames quickly suppressed the golden flames around him and occupied much of the surrounding area. The terrifying might of a sovereign surged out of Grand Emperor Starvore. His innate power as a Skywolf was fully unleashed. The Starvorians had incredibly tough physical bodies.

Following quickly behind him was Empress Yu. She sported a slender, yet shapely figure, and was clasping the arm of her man. The two of them shone like metallic silver, looking like a match made in heaven. She and her sister in marriage were easily the most enchanting sovereign beauties in Skywolf, enchanting even more people than Sovereign Sanctquility had.

The sun emperor fully relished her visage, aura, figure, and seductiveness. Breaking into a laugh, he said, "I'm really envious of you, my friend. You'd think someone with beauties like that would be too busy playing with them to leave his bed, yet you had the time to come to my home and make a mess. Are they too much to handle? I can deal with one for you."

"You might as well mess with your solar sow with your puny body!" Empress Yu snapped. She had never seen someone as shameless as the sun emperor.

"Puny body? Don't tell me you failed to notice the impressive specimen that I am?" the sun emperor said, feigning a look of shock.

Empress Yu wanted to say more, but Grand Emperor Starvore glared at her, signaling her to shut up. "You know that mere words won't work on shameless people like that. The only way to shut his mouth is to kill him."

"Okay...." Her husband might be a man of few words, but he was no pushover. He let his wives speak for him most of the time, preferring to put his mind to other pursuits.

"Coffin," he whispered to her.

"Understood."

"Let's go." The couple immediately let their powers surge to a peak. Lifeless white flames roiled about, forming two gigantic white loti that took up the span of a hundred thousand meters of the battlefield. At the same time, the Starvore hovered above them, constantly eyeing the sun emperor. They weren't just going to let their ship sit there. Instead, they were going in for the kill.

Sharp, lupine growling was coming from inside the white loti, where two figures were expanding in size. In almost no time, one grew to a height of two hundred meters, while the other was taller than three hundred. The former, Empress Yu, was covered in lifeless white flames and looked like a werewolf with galactic eyes. Its snow-white fur that swayed in the wind was covered in a golden sheen and its four limbs were armed with razor-sharp talons. While that was all part of its body, they looked just like divine artifacts. Even after turning into a ghastly monster, there was still the air of a feral beauty about her. Her lupine figure was still as slender as before, though it was less seductive than her hairless form.

Grand Emperor Starvore was the larger one and sported an even more built figure. His physique was perfectly sculpted for combat, with muscles that looked like sheets of metal. In fact, he looked just like a miniature version of the divine astralship, the Sanctquility Ghostrain. His glory was on full display in his powered-up form. Lifeless white flame covered every inch of his magnificent silhouette.

Empress Yu was glaring holes into the sun emperor. If it weren’t for her more powerful husband being beside her, she really wanted to ask how the small man would be able to ravage her. There was no way the sun emperor's mating implement could possibly rival her husband's in length or girth.

The sun emperor couldn't help but gulp at the sight of the two gigantic monsters. He knew that the silent Grand Emperor Starvore was the one with the most killing intent. He would be the first to strike, but the sun emperor still had something to say. "Hey, I'll let you handle the male beast. I have a date with a foreign beauty, you see."

As for the one he was addressing, it was the red-shrouded figure that loomed beneath them on the ground below.

......

The last ship of the six rexes, the Redfeather Voiddragon, finally exploded. Sovereign Redforge had learned the lesson taught to him by the deaths of the other five sovereigns and escaped the blast, yet Tianming had still caught up to him.

With the power of faith granted by fifty billion people, Tianming left the ship and easily slew Sovereign Redforge, putting an end to the six rexes. He owed much of his success in killing the final one to Yin Chen and Lingfeng, especially the latter. Without his enthusiastic help, there was no way Tianming would have been able to stop the Redfeather Voiddragon.

Of the six rexes, all of them apart from Sovereign Greenvoid had died with aid from the Primordial Demon and the flaming beasts. Tianming and his ship had just given them the final push. This time, for instance, Tianming had chased them into the sun, from which they were hard pressed to escape, and wiped them out. The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb was far more powerful than the Divine Sun Palace in matters of actual astral war, being inferior only to the Starvore.

After the death of Sovereign Redforge, Lingfeng's main body returned to the flaming clouds to continue slaughtering the specter army. Tianming only had one battlefield left to tend to: the heartland of the celestial orderians at the north pole of the sun. He’d never been there before, but Qingyu had lived there for a time.

"I wonder if the sun emperor is still alive...." He could wait to see who won and fight the last one standing or join the battle before it concluded, but he decided to withhold his decision until he got a better grasp of the situation. "The Starvore is there, so we'll be at a disadvantage. Once the enemy has the edge on us, I might end up shot down." He had the elites leave the ship to fight since there was a good chance the ship would go down with him in battle. Then he set out for the north pole of the sun alone.
