Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7031

Chapter 6041: A Major Taboo in the Military

Next,

Li Tianming continued practicing during his journey to the Little Divine Treasury Star System.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Li Tianming had spent ninety-eight years practicing his swordsmanship.

During this time, he completely mastered this new application of the power of the Astral Plane and the Pulse Field.

The eighth sword of the Chaos Sword Dao was not simply a mixture of various powers to create a destructive force through superposition, but rather it allowed each of the major Astral Plane divine weapons or Pulse Fields to exert its own attribute characteristics. They were not integrated with each other, but they were also closely related.

This resulted in a more ever-changing combat style that was no weaker than Astral Plane Fusion!

Such as forming a sword formation that could shatter space, or a beast shadow that could suppress all paths with the power of the Pulse Field!

After his final practice, Li Tianming sheathed the Eastern Emperor Sword, let out a long breath, and couldn’t help but marvel at the eighth sword of the Chaos Sword Dao.

“This eighth sword is truly profound, especially the combined sword technique, which is incredibly deep. No wonder I had to try it myself during the demonstration; otherwise, it would have taken even longer to grasp its essence.”

“This method of controlling the power of each companion beast, seemingly separating and combining them while simultaneously leveraging their individual attributes and creating connections, actually unleashes even greater power.”

“I originally thought my control over the astral plane and pulse field had reached perfection, but now I can even feel improvement.”

Having finished his training in the Chaos Sword Technique, there were still about two years until the Destiny Ship arrived in the Little Divine Treasury Star System.

Li Tianming then ordered the Destiny Ship to slowly stop, and he went to the main cabin where the Destiny Army was located.

The sudden stop of the Destiny Ship left everyone bewildered.

“What’s going on? We should still be some distance from the Little Divine Treasury Star System, why did we stop?”

“Is there some unexpected situation? Could it be an enemy attack? But there doesn’t seem to be any warning order…”

Inside the main cabin, Li Tianming stood on a prominent platform, and everyone awaited his instructions.

At this moment, Li Tianming solemnly declared, “All soldiers of the Tianming Army, listen to my command! Remain at your posts on the Tianming!”

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, followed by whispers and questions.

“What does the Tianming Army Commander mean? We came with full force, ready to charge directly into the Xiaoshenzang star system and begin the battle,”

someone whispered. “Could it be that the Tianming Army Commander has changed his mind and doesn’t want to attack the Xiaoshenzang star system anymore?”

“What are you saying? To be cowardly before the battle is a cardinal sin in the army. How could the Tianming Army Commander not know this? But I truly don’t understand…”

Of course, someone else directly asked the question—it was Lu Ziyan, the woman dressed in black, exuding heroic spirit, with a stunningly beautiful face, but eyes as fierce as a tiger!

Lu Ziyan stepped forward and solemnly said, “Commander of the Heavenly Mandate Army, although obeying orders is a soldier’s duty, everyone is still curious about the reason for your order. Could you please explain it to us?”

Li Tianming smiled slightly and said directly, “I will use myself as a spy to infiltrate the Little Divine Treasure Star System and gather intelligence in advance.” Upon hearing

this, the members of the Heavenly Mandate Army who understood the reason were all surprised and puzzled, and most of them were worried.

“This is not appropriate, Commander of the Heavenly Mandate Army. How can we let you personally take such a risk? I don’t think it’s necessary. Just attack directly.”

“The natives of this star system are probably barbaric and ruthless. If something unexpected happens, it will be irreversible.”

Li Muyun and Mo Huan were also quite worried, after all, among a group of young people, they were considered relatively senior.

Li Muyun frowned slightly, worried, and said, “Tianming, should we reconsider?”

Li Tianming smiled slightly and said, “Don’t worry, Imperial Tutor Li. You’ve forgotten how many attacks I’ve faced in the Heavenly Emperor Sect, and I’m still alive and well. A mere small Divine Treasure Star System can’t do anything to me.”

Hearing this, Li Muyun thought of how even a Heavenly Venerable expert had failed to ambush Li Tianming in the Young Emperor Tower, and how the strongest being in the Small Divine Treasure Star System was said to be a Heavenly Venerable, so she felt a little relieved.

However, she still frowned slightly and said, “You must be careful on this trip. Everyone is waiting for your return.”

The geniuses who guarded the Imperial Clan, such as Huansheng, were somewhat worried.

Huanmie analyzed rationally, “It’s too inefficient for the Heavenly Fate Army Commander to infiltrate alone and gather intelligence; it’s not worth it. If we really want to investigate, we can send out some skilled scouts first.”

Yuzhao nodded in agreement, “Yes, and it’s not appropriate to let the Commander venture deep into danger while we wait here.”

Jiang Beichen said, “This star system is dominated by the Divine Treasure Clan. If the Heavenly Fate Army Commander infiltrates, he’ll be too easily identified and in danger.”

At this moment, a slightly jarring voice rang out.

“If this Li… Heavenly Fate Army Commander encounters misfortune, wouldn’t the Heavenly Fate Army have to disband before even encountering the enemy?”

This statement drew many glances, wondering who was suggesting disbanding before even engaging the enemy.

Li Tianming’s gaze sharpened; it was Huansheng who had spoken.

Some people, upon hearing this, indeed became even more worried.

“If the Heavenly Mandate Army Commander really dies, wouldn’t my journey from the home star system have been in vain? Are all these years of waiting going to end so abruptly?”

Faced with these comments, Li Tianming remained calm and composed, smiling but silent.

Only after the murmurs subsided did he speak with a smile, “This is the Heavenly Mandate Army. Since we’re here, we must follow the rules. As the Commander, I issue orders, and everyone must obey my arrangements.”

“If any problems arise because of my decisions, I will bear the consequences myself.”

“Furthermore, I, Li Tianming, will not die. I have my own reasons for doing this, so there’s no need to elaborate.”

At this point, the Heavenly Mandate Army members had nothing more to say, and the discussion gradually died down.

Before leaving the main cabin, he had already activated the Heavenly Mandate’s sealing array, cutting off all communication channels within the ship.

This was to prevent anyone from revealing the Heavenly Mandate’s location, and of course, there was no need to mention it to everyone.

As he prepared to depart, Li Tianming took Aurora and Sui Shenyao with him, while An Ning remained on the Heavenly Mandate.

Li Tianming said solemnly, “Commander An, I’m entrusting the Heavenly Mandate Army to you for now. Don’t let me down, the Heavenly Mandate Army Commander.”

An Ning playfully punched Li Tianming in the chest, laughing and scolding, “You little rascal, how dare you tease me?”

“Anyway, I’m leaving. You stay here to stabilize morale. If there’s anything difficult to handle, you can ask Imperial Tutor Li or Master Mo Huan for help,” Li Tianming earnestly instructed.

“Alright, go ahead with peace of mind, and come back soon,” An Ning waved her hand.

Those closest to Li Tianming naturally knew just how extraordinary his ability to conceal himself was, so they weren’t worried at all.

Before setting off, Li Tianming had also sealed the hatch outside the Tianming Ship, and the other person with the authority to open the hatch was An Ning.

In this way, combined with the blocking of communications, neither messages could get out, nor could people get out, so almost no one would reveal that Li Tianming was going to the Xiaoshenzang star system alone, or reveal the location of the Tianming Ship.
