Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2960 - Vanquish

Chapter 2960 - Vanquish

With four Primordial Chaos Beasts as his limbs and the decapath era godswords in the fortuna-class Grand-Orient Sword, almost everything in Tianming's arsenal was restored except for his divine wonder! All of that power concentrated in a singular entity made him the avatar of a tyrannical deity.

"Huh?" Just as Demoness Yin stopped hesitating and decided to take the risk, she noticed that the youth beneath her not only hadn’t been utterly wrecked by the manna's energy, but had gotten even more vigorous than before!

She tore open the blood cocoon and was shocked at the sight of his body that was covered in bicolored dragon scales, sword-shaped feathers, black lightning patterns, and all kinds of flowers and plants. There were far too many elements, yet they seemed perfectly in harmony. His gaze pulsed with fire and lightning. Just by meeting it, Demoness Yin felt utterly flabbergasted.

"Kid... you!" Demoness Yin had been worried that the Bloodweaver and the manna tribulation would kill Tianming, so she’d weakened her hold on him by a considerable amount.

Right at that moment, a never-before-seen power exploded forth from Tianming. "Begone!"

All the cosmoforce and omnisentient power in his body was concentrated into a singular point and blasted out. Some of it was used by Ying Huo and the rest to unleash their abilities, bombarding the immediate surroundings while the rest was channeled into strengthening the Grand-Orient Sword and restoring his divine wonder. He could simply tear apart the bindings of Demoness Yin's Bloodweaver with a single move, but he didn't care for that. The only path for survival was death and rebirth.

"Die!" He put the pain he felt from the Bloodweaver to the back of his mind as he mustered all the energy he could. First, he used the Xia words to hamper the minor astral giant before him, then he went all out with the Grand-Orient Sword!

Ying Huo and Meow Meow used Beacon Chaosswamp, accompanied by many other abilities from Xian Xian. Lan Huang even delivered a sick kick to Demoness Yin's body! Then came the sword strike with monstrous power!

"You!" Demoness Yin hurriedly pulled her Bloodweaver back to block it, but she was still sent flying by Tianming's cut and almost sliced in half! The Bloodweaver had been weakened as well, as much of their cosmic impulse had been absorbed by Tianming's Order Relic Universal Body. When Demoness Yin got hurt, the Bloodweaver was no longer capable of containing him!

Tianming used that chance to blow out the needles from his body. His body and astral organs were greatly harmed by doing so, yet if he didn't, he would forever be held back. He had no choice but to risk injury to get rid of them.

When the Bloodweaver needles were shot out, blood immediately spurted out of all the holes across his body, filling the blood cocoon. Many of his astrons had been torn to shreds. Tianming was only barely holding them together with his cosmic chart and Omnisentient Threads. Naturally, his beasts replacing his ruined limbs had already mitigated a lot of the damage.

He took a few steps back and thrust his sword into the ground to stabilize himself. Then he looked up at Demoness Yin and laughed—he had regained his freedom! It truly was a liberating sensation. His fighting spirit kept rising as he laughed. When he gripped his sword again, terrifying power began circulating through his battered body.

Demoness Yin slowly reformed into her humanoid astral form and looked at the Bloodweaver with furrowed brows. Everything she had witnessed about Tianming’s performance gave her quite a huge headache. "To think you'd hurt yourself so badly to shake yourself free.... You truly are harsh on yourself."

"Harsh? You'll see something even harsher right after this!" Tianming swallowed a mouthful of blood and glared at his foe.

"You're already hurt so badly. Where are you getting all that confidence?" Demoness Yin was sure that her Bloodweaver would eventually kill him after forcibly removing it.

"You'll know where my confidence comes from when I tear you to shreds, old hag!" Tianming roared. Boundless power came from fusing all four beasts and ten totems into a single entity. Ying Huo and the others were connected to him.

With a stomp of his right leg using Lan Huang's strength, he caused a whole mountain to crumble. Then black roots grew out from his left leg and dug deep into the ground. His right arm was a burning feather sword, while his black Fiendsky Arm was physically potent and could utilize monochrome lightning. Tianming didn't even have to use the abilities as Meow Meow could unleash them on its own accord, even at point blank! The fighting machine came face-to-face with Demoness Yin's astral giant form.

"How arrogant!" Demoness Yin's expression changed, but she still believed she could dominate him. She tried using her foundation fortress to suppress him, but it was pointless because of his Order Relic Universal Body! At the same time, her Bloodweaver formed a sea of threads that threatened to give Tianming quite a headache. He was truly enraged at the sight of that.

"You come to my territory to kill my subjects and destroy my world! Who gave you that kind of courage?!" Tianming channeled his, his beasts', and his subjects' rage into a single strike. "Let all of Intrepidus know that whether it's you, Demoness Yin, or anyone else, your fate is to be turned to ash once you set foot on my Sun!"

Tianming kept his message simple. He raised his sword high in preparation to execute Imperator's Mural, instantly forming a mind-blowing sword projection that contained his beasts' energies. It was at least two times as powerful as the same strike he had used to kill Ba Xiao. It glowed brightly with the radiance of ruin, coupled with a new aspect: absolute, tyrannical power!

Demoness Yin faltered before the strike. It was far too powerful! She didn't think that Tianming could possibly deliver such a blow after all the injuries he had sustained! How could the tables turn like this? She had been overwhelming him mere moments ago! "What? What in the—?!"

The prey she had toyed with for so long threatened to bite back and kill her. It was simple and clean! There was only slaughter, no mercy or temptation. The only thing Tianming felt toward her was a desire for her to perish.

"Vanquish!" he and his four beasts cried in unison, fueled by fury. So what if she was the first rex mundi of Intrepidus? All Demoness Yin could do was to futilely block with the Bloodweaver and run!

But alas, it was too late.

Tianming’s Xia words had cut off the minor astral giant's escape. The giant of tens of meters in height had nowhere to run. Energies of flames, lightning, mountains, seas, and plants slammed into her. The next instant, a sword projection carrying the power of Tianming's totems and his beast-fused body pierced through Demoness Yin's astral giant form.

"Uuugh!" Demoness Yin turned back, completely stunned speechless. Her galactic body almost instantly turned to ash as she looked on with disbelief.
