Chapter 1704 - Sovereign Brightscorch
The Violetglory Star’s wondersky realm experienced another round of cheering that was just as loud as during the Astralium Seeking.
Last time, Tianming had miraculously counter-killed Long, but this time, he’d killed him through overwhelmingly superior power!
Both were wins, but they had been accomplished in different ways. It also proved Tianming’s G.o.dly rate of improvement. His growth rate was far superior to the top five geniuses of the Mysterium Cl.u.s.ter. If the mysterious woman from the wonderians was ignored, Long would be in the top three. The Ninelives Crimsonjade was the greatest talent in the faceless specters.
After this lightning-fast kill, the pa.s.sion of the Violetglorians was inflamed once again. Those who had already provided Tianming with Omnisentient Threads had theirs grow thicker, while some who’d been indifferent joined those who were deifying him.
Omnisentient Threads came from the legacy of the Primordial G.o.d-Emperor. If it weren’t for the legacy, Tianming wouldn’t have Omnisentient Will no matter how shocking his performance was.
At the ma.s.sive Violetcloud Battlefield, there weren"t any battles going on right now. Instead, people were jostling for s.p.a.ce with excited expressions. As the place that youngsters gathered, it was also the place with the highest emotions right now. Somehow, some time, there had come a day when everyone put aside their business to watch Tianming’s journey through the Astraldome, which had become a must watch.
Those in the VIP rooms up in the sky could clearly see the scene. In one of the most luxurious rooms, the most elite Violetglorian was present. He was the current emperor of the Divineglory Dynasty, Sovereign Brightscorch. He had been quietly watching when Tianming stepped on the battlefield. And when Tianming killed Crimsonjade Long, he began clapping with heavy hands. Each clap hammered at the hearts of the two youths next to him, Ye Chen and Princess Shen Yu.
“Royal Father, why are you clapping for his unstoppable rise? He isn’t part of our Divineglory Dynasty,” Princess Shen Yu said in a low voice. Her face was no longer filled with confidence or energy like before. She had realized how utterly far behind they were when Feiling appeared in the Astraldome.
“He doesn’t belong to the Divineglory Dynasty. However, he doesn’t belong to Violetcloud Imperium either. Even if the deific-cla.s.s worlds don’t come, the skypiercer-cla.s.s worlds will. Our star can’t contain such a genius. Furthermore, those four by his side aren’t any weaker than Ye Chen.” Sovereign Brightscorch actually seemed more relaxed than before.
When he heard his name, Ye Chen grit his teeth. While he seemed to remain casual, the sovereign didn’t miss the darkness in his eyes.
“Some people say that even if he leaves, he might still return to help the Violetcloud Imperium in the future,” Princess Shen Yu said. Her worries proved the utter defeat of the Divineglory Dynasty. There were even believers of Tianming in their dynasty at this point.
“Maybe not. People go for greater heights while water flows downwards. Violetglory cannot produce such a genius, and especially not five of them. We don’t even have any information about them, their parents, or their clan. They aren’t of our star, so they won’t see this place as home. This is just a training ground for them. I believe they should actually come from a deific-cla.s.s world outside of the Mysterium Cl.u.s.ter.” Sovereign Brightscorch frowned.
“Deific-cla.s.s world? Then why come here to waste time?” Princess Shen Yu was surprised.
“Perhaps something went wrong. Anything can happen in this vast astralscape. Maybe even deific-cla.s.s worlds can fall. After all, all nova sources will all eventually come to an end. There are no eternal races,” Sovereign Brightscorch said.
“I see…. Much of the shock was due to his birthplace. If he came from a deific-cla.s.s world, defeating Long is normal.”
“Not really. When Li Tianming first appeared, he supposedly wasn’t even a constellier. And that was two or three years ago,” Ye Chen suddenly said. The information came from a girl called Liu Wanwan from MystG.o.d Pavilion.
“Maybe he was keeping himself hidden. The power you show in the wondersky realm is just what you record. The battle at the Observatorium was when he first revealed himself,” Princess Shen Yu reb.u.t.ted.
“Yes.” Ye Chen couldn’t say much more.
“Royal father means that we don’t need to worry too much. Although those five are frightening, they don’t have any emotional attachments to the Violetcloud Imperium. When the Mysterium Cl.u.s.ter comes, they won’t stick around, whether they choose to run away or go along. Ye Chen, the future of our star is still in your hands.” Princess Shen Yu held his hand, her expression much warmer.
“Yes, Wanwan.” Ye Chen squeezed out a smile.
“Is there something you’re dissatisfied with?” Sovereign Brightscorch slowly asked.
“Of course not. My debt of grat.i.tude toward the sovereign and Wanwan is as heavy as the mountains,” he hurriedly replied. In the past, they had all been very close. However, after Tianming’s arrival, fractures had inevitably formed. Ye Chen now had imperius manna, but he’d also been bound. Even if Tianming left, things would never return to the way they were before.
The uproar below suddenly increased; Li Tianming had returned.
“He didn’t continue his challenges?”
Everyone was looking up at the sky above. A youth with white hair and black clothes had appeared there. One hand was holding G.o.dsin, while the other was a black arm covered in scales. His black and gold eyes carried the prestige of an emperor. It was like the return of the Primordial G.o.d-Emperor from yesteryear.
The Violetglory Star had shown Tianming the strongest form of Imperial Will. Blazing with excitement, Tianming pointed G.o.dsin at the sky. “Brothers and sisters, I just have one question for you: was that awesome or not!?”
It was clear that he was trying to hype up the area.
“Awesome!!” The entire wondersky realm shook from that roar.
