Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7004

Chapter 6914: Returning to the Stage!

Inside the Taixu Star Refining Tower, Li Tianming finished his cultivation, stepped outside, and summoned his companion beasts.

All the companion beasts rushed towards Li Tianming and crashed into his companion space.

The sleeping Meow Meow was carried on Lan Huang’s back and entered the companion space with him.

Aurora, Sui Shenyao, and An Ning transformed into two golden and black earrings and a pure white suit of armor, respectively, onto Li Tianming’s body.

Just before departing, Jiang Feiling advised, “Brother, don’t rush things with Xiao Jiu. Now that you can interact with her, proceed gradually.”

Li Tianming smiled and said, “I know what I’m doing.”

Then, Jiang Feiling and Wei Sheng Mo Ran escorted Li Tianming to the back of the Taixu Star Refining Tower, to the location of the Stabilizing Sky Butterfly Mother Butterfly.

“Let’s go.”

After bidding farewell, Li Tianming approached the spatial turbulence created by the golden butterfly and entered it directly.

*Buzz—*

A golden light flashed, enveloping and protecting him. An unseen force pulled him into the Heavenly Fate Palace, to the location of the Stabilizing Sky Butterfly Child.

A moment later…

they arrived at the Heavenly Mandate Palace.

Back within the Heavenly Emperor Sect, Li Tianming headed straight for the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Emperors, his goal clear.

Li Tianming pondered, “My strength has increased significantly again. I need to reclaim my ranking on the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking first, just in case Xiao Jiu encounters any unforeseen circumstances.”

He needed to maintain his position in the top 100 of the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking so he could ascend the Heavenly Emperor Pillar to find Xiao Jiu at any time.

“The Battle of Ten Thousand Emperors won’t be long. I’ll secure a stable top 100 ranking first, then I can consider preparing for the Emperor Heaven Plan.”

However, just as Li Tianming left the Heavenly Mandate Palace and headed towards the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Emperors, he happened to encounter Tai Su and Hong Yan, the young couple from the Illusionary Heavenly Emperor Clan.

Tai Su was handsome and refined, while Hong Yan was stunningly beautiful, gentle to her own people, but a little fierce towards those unpleasant outsiders.

The Heavenly Mandate Palace was very close to their cultivation palace, so Li Tianming happened to run into them as he passed by their residence.

Li Tianming greeted his two masters.

Tai Su nodded in response, then asked, “How long did you listen to the Dao on the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Pillar this time?”

Li Tianming replied, “In the fiftieth year, I slipped one place to the hundredth, and in the end, more than a hundred years passed before I completely fell out of the top hundred.”

Tai Su smiled and nodded, “Hmm, you were quite lucky. If you hadn’t been so lucky, it’s possible that you would have been squeezed out of the top hundred by other disciples in just a few years. You stayed at almost the very bottom of the rankings for more than a hundred years, which is enough for a cultivation cycle.”

Then Tai Su asked curiously, “So how did you gain this time? Did you break through to the next realm?”

Li Tianming lowered his eyes and shook his head, “Not the next realm.”

Hongyan glared at Tai Su. She glanced at him, then continued, “It’s alright, my good disciple. Laying a certain foundation is good for preparing for the next breakthrough. See if you’re still lacking something in your cultivation, and I’ll prepare it for you.”

Her tone was gentle as she turned to Li Tianming, “You can always get revenge next time. Your talent is already top-notch outside of the Li Imperial Clan; it’s only a matter of time before you surpass others.”

Tai Su smiled and said, “No… I haven’t broken through yet, but I must have laid a good foundation. I’m only one step away from the next breakthrough, which is also very good.”

Li Tianming shook his head and said, “It’s not just one step away.”

In front of these two Grand Masters, Li Tianming, under the Emperor’s command, was actually about the age of a toddler.

So, when he didn’t display his domineering aura in battle, he really seemed like a child in their eyes.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit off, and Li Tianming seemed to be in a bad mood as well, Hongyan pinched Tai Su’s arm hard this time, “You better say less.”

Tai Su winced in pain, but he gently stroked his chin, realizing that something was not simple.

“Having listened to the Dao for a hundred years, this is the first time I’ve ever listened. There’s no reason I shouldn’t have gained anything like this…”

Suddenly, he laughed, prying open Hongyan’s hand, which was gripping him tightly like a crab’s claw, and said, “This kid is playing word games, teasing us.”

Hongyan was slightly taken aback, then her eyebrows furrowed, and she glared at Li Tianming with a hint of coquettishness.

Tai Su raised an eyebrow and said, “Just tell me directly, did you break through two levels, or more?”

Seeing that he couldn’t keep up the act any longer, Li Tianming smiled slightly and said, “Master thinks too highly of me. Two levels are already the limit, how could there be more?”

Tai Su praised, “You kid, you’re really freakish! Breaking through two levels in a hundred years of listening to the Dao, absolutely unique, a genius!”

He continued, “The Guardian Imperial Clan has no rivals in terms of talent. Currently, the only ones in front of you are probably the prodigies of that clan.”

Clearly, above the Guardian Imperial Clan, only the Li Imperial Clan was superior.

Li Tianming smiled and said, “Disciple still needs to continue to work hard; the path to enlightenment is endless.”

“You’ve now broken through two realms and emerged from seclusion. Are you going to fight in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Emperors again?” Hongyan asked.

“Master is so wise. I am indeed preparing to go to the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Emperors,” Li Tianming said.

“How can you speak to your master like that! Is that a word you use to flatter your master?” Hongyan glared at Li Tianming.

Taisu smiled and said, “This shows that in Tianming’s eyes, we are still young and carefree. What’s wrong with

that?” “That’s exactly what I meant,” Li Tianming agreed.

Hongyan sighed, “Alas, so glib at such a young age. I wonder how many young girls he will ruin in the future.”

Li Tianming was embarrassed and remained noncommittal.

Yinghuo cackled in the companion space, “No need for the future. Little Li has already ruined quite a few.”

“Since you’re going to participate in the battle, we two have nothing to do these days, so we’ll go with you to take a look,” Taisu said. “

Please, Masters,” Li Tianming said respectfully.

Thus, the three of them boarded the Line Source Plank Road together and headed towards the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Emperors.

A moment later,

the three emerged from the Line Source Walkway.

The Myriad Emperors Palace, resembling a ferocious behemoth, sat in the center of the Myriad Emperors Battlefield. On the black Myriad Emperors Ranking Stele above it, Li Tianming’s golden name was ranked 101st.

Passing countless battlegrounds surrounding the Myriad Emperors Palace, where fierce fighting was taking place, Tai Su Hongyan and Li Tianming entered the palace.

After Li Tianming appeared, some noticed him following behind his two masters.

Boom!!

Passersby stopped in their tracks, and the Myriad Emperors Palace instantly erupted in commotion. In terms of sheer presence, he was no less impressive than some of the most important figures!

After all, his current talent, among the outer sect disciples—those excluding the Li Imperial Clan—made him a legendary figure!

“It’s Li Tianming. He’s coming to participate in the Battle of Ten Thousand Emperors again. Could it be that he’s made another breakthrough while listening to the Dao at the Lingxiao Imperial Palace?”

“Judging by the time, it’s been a hundred years since he broke into the top 100 of the Battle of Ten Thousand Emperors. In these hundred years, how strong has he become, and what rank will he reach?”
