Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7207

Chapter 7119: Little Nine Hatches!

Yu Shang, who had initially advised Li Tianming to give up, now smiled and said, “Since Junior Brother Li has accepted the challenge, he must be confident. He’ll definitely create a miracle. While Li Moumou has made progress in the past three hundred years, Junior Brother Li might not stagnate!”

“That’s right, Governor Li might just defeat his opponent outright, shocking everyone,” Jiang Beichen added with a laugh.

It seemed that Li Tianming’s acceptance of the challenge had actually made those who trusted him more optimistic.

However, Li Tianming then said with a wry smile, “You all have too much faith in me. Winning this time won’t be easy, I know that. To even have a chance, I’d have to break through several realms, but realms aren’t so easy to break through!”

“Ah? Is that so…?”

Hearing this, Jiang Beichen and the others finally grasped the reality and stopped mentioning defeating Li Moumou.

However, they weren’t disappointed in Li Tianming, after all, his rise to power had been incredibly rapid!

He just needed some time to catch up with Li Moumou.

At this moment, Sui Shenyao, who was beside Li Tianming, said with a hint of schadenfreude, “Isn’t your specialty continuous breakthroughs? Why are you losing confidence?”

“Not to mention that my breakthroughs sometimes depend on luck, and it’s uncertain whether this Li Moumou is from the Li Imperial Clan. What if she pulls out a ‘Stealing Fate’ technique and directly raises my realm by several levels? How am I supposed to bridge that gap?” Li Tianming replied to Sui Shenyao inwardly, “Besides, I don’t have enough connections with the sentient beings in the Heavenly Emperor Sect, while this Li Moumou is at least a sixth-level Heavenly Venerable, which is much higher than the basic realm of the young Emperor Venerable. This gap isn’t so easy to bridge…”

As he was speaking, Li Tianming was about to say goodbye to everyone and return to his private room to continue honing his swordsmanship, but at this moment, a familiar voice appeared in Li Tianming’s ear—

“Hey, get ready quickly, find a deserted place and wait for me. I’ve fully hatched and am coming to find you!”

“Is it Xiao Jiu?” Li Tianming’s heart stirred, and his gaze narrowed slightly.

After receiving news of Xiao Jiu, Li Tianming bid farewell to his friends and immediately left the Myriad Emperors Palace.

No one suspected anything; after all, he had been fighting in the Myriad Emperors War for over a hundred years, so leaving at this time was perfectly normal.

Li Tianming had been eagerly anticipating Xiao Jiu’s return for a long time, so he was actually quite excited!

He first entered the Void Universe Starscape, then traversed several Line Source Planes, finally arriving at a deserted place.

This location was carefully selected by Yin Chen, the least frequented place, and free from any Dao Array obstructions.

“I wonder if Xiao Jiu can sense me; perhaps I should reveal myself,” Li Tianming pondered for a moment before dispelling the Void Universe Starscape.

With Yin Chen monitoring him, he wasn’t worried about anyone approaching and discovering him.

However, just as Li Tianming arrived at the deserted place and revealed himself!

Rumble—!!

Several loud explosions came from the Heavenly Emperor Divine Pillar he could see in the distance, like the collapse of a super cosmic line source, shaking the heavens and the earth!

“What’s going on?”

“What happened?”

People throughout the Heavenly Emperor Sect trembled, frantically searching for the source of the commotion.

Along with the sound, a colossal, black, monstrous beast soared into the sky!

In the Guanyin Realm, it was enormous, practically blotting out the sun, its entire body black, shrouded in black mist!

This was an extremely ferocious dark beast, its amorphous body possessing claws on its limbs and sharp teeth from its abyssal maw.

In the real universe, it was a savage beast capable of devouring light, its body so large it could lie prone and sever galaxies!

In the vast universe, atop the Heavenly Emperor Pillar, half of the beast’s body could be seen emerging, enough to leave onlookers speechless with terror.

This scene was witnessed not only by Li Tianming but also by everyone in the entire Heavenly Emperor Sect!

“The Eternal Emperor Beast has awakened!” countless people exclaimed.

“It has never been this active since it arrived at the Heavenly Emperor Sect. What is it trying to do?”

“What exactly happened?”

Everyone who witnessed this scene was shocked and filled with doubt!

Before this, they didn’t even know what state the so-called Eternal Emperor Beast was in at the Heavenly Emperor Sect, or even that it was still incubating.

The Eternal Emperor Beast, which they had only heard about before, was now awake and appeared before everyone’s eyes!

This scene was enough to leave everyone speechless!

Along with the movement on the Heavenly Emperor Divine Pillar, a huge amount of dark energy swept through the entire sect.

Buzz—

a dark ripple spread from the Heavenly Emperor Divine Pillar to the entire Heavenly Emperor Sect.

“What?!” “

Is the Eternal Emperor Beast going to attack us?”

“Ah!!”

Many people trembled, and the disciples with lower cultivation levels knelt on the ground, trembling.

“What is Xiao Jiu doing?” Li Tianming was somewhat puzzled.

Perhaps because of his relationship with Xiao Jiu, he was not affected by the ripple, but he knew that the range of this power was very large.

Yin Chen exclaimed in shock, “It yawned!”

“A yawn has such power?” Li Tianming’s pupils constricted, his heart trembling.

However, before he could even react, the terrifying giant image on the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Pillar seemed to stretch and throb, instantly growing even larger!

“It’s now completely hatched,” Yin Chen said, astonished.

Looking up at the giant image, even Li Tianming was dumbfounded. “This is… a full ten light-years! Little Nine is already this powerful after hatching? Little Nine’s true form, the Dark Matter Demon, is already this terrifying from its very beginning?” What

was even more unbelievable to Li Tianming was that Little Nine hadn’t undergone any symbiotic cultivation!

“Without symbiotic cultivation, how did Little Nine become so powerful? This simply doesn’t conform to the rules…” Li Tianming said solemnly.

Even the more peculiar and mysterious Ji Ji and Xi Xi’s growth realms were bound to Li Tianming.

Needless to say, even the most wicked of the six, they all needed to cultivate alongside Li Tianming to reach an even stronger path.

However, Xiao Jiu, having grown almost entirely on its own, had actually surpassed Li Tianming’s strength and realm!

“Xiao Jiu’s advancement seems to have nothing to do with me, yet it came from my companion space. What’s going on? In that case, is it still considered my companion beast?” Li Tianming was shocked and filled with doubt.

Xiao Jiu’s near-transcendence of the system worried him greatly.

At that moment, a clear imperial voice suddenly emanated from the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Pillar!

This voice was similar to the one Li Tianming heard when listening to the Dao, but even more distant.

However, like when listening to the Dao, the voice was indistinct.

The more Li Tianming tried to hear it clearly, the more his head throbbed, becoming unbearable.

However, when Li Tianming emptied his mind and listened in a state almost like cultivation, he could sense some emotions within the voice.

“It seems to be speaking to Xiao Jiu!” Li Tianming frowned slightly.

Now that Xiao Jiu had grown to this level, Li Tianming wasn’t too worried about it being threatened by power.

However, he was actually a little worried that Xiao Jiu would be swayed by words, so he felt a bit nervous.

But Xiao Jiu barely responded to his words. As

the Emperor’s voice continued, the enormous shadow atop the Heavenly Emperor Pillar, spanning over ten light-years, suddenly shouted impatiently, though it was unclear what it said.

Whoosh!

In that instant, the massive beastly shadow on the Heavenly Emperor Pillar vanished into thin air!

At this moment, the disciples of the Heavenly Emperor Sect were all shocked by this scene.

“The Eternal Emperor Beast actually ran away!”

“Such a large Eternal Emperor Beast, just disappeared like that?”

“Where did it go? Is it no longer staying in the Heavenly Emperor Sect?”

“Will it come back?”

The members of the Heavenly Emperor Sect were all stunned by this scene, filled with doubts.

From its awakening and appearance to its disappearance, it all happened in such a short time.

Li Tianming was also completely bewildered by this scene, unable to understand what had happened.

“Xiao Jiu told me to wait for it, but it just disappeared like that?” Li Tianming frowned slightly, puzzled.

However, just as he was feeling puzzled, a dark figure suddenly appeared behind him!

At that moment, on the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Pillar, the Eternal Heavenly Emperor’s mysterious and indistinct imperial voice seemed somewhat displeased.

Li Tianming could clearly sense this change in emotion.

The voice continued, without ceasing, as if it wanted Xiao Jiu to reappear.

But behind Li Tianming, a voice suddenly came, saying, “People, I’m here!”
