Chapter 3070 - Bloodbath
Ji Ji"s genesis ancestral nova source flooded into Tianming"s body. After evolving, it had gained an explosive quality, greatly increasing his destructive capabilities! At the same time, he fused his decapath era G.o.dswords into the Grand-Orient Swords and fused them with the cosmic impulses within.
"Are you still dreaming about fighting back?" Huang Daoxiong laughed at the hilarity of his reaction.
"How delusional."
"Zhao Ge, Tao Ying, take him down!"
"How could a taint like him dream of making it big in Myriadpath Valley? He should be here to work for us! Why doesn"t he know his place?"
The dozen inner valley disciples recalled their humiliating defeats and kept shouting in rage. They couldn"t wait to see Tianming beaten up and tortured. It was one thing if they had been defeated by fellow gold ring holders. But being defeated by Tianming, a black ring holder and tainted beastmaster, was an insult so grave that they lost countless days of sleep over it!
"Go!" Huang Daoxiong roared.
Zhao Ge had undergone his skyghoul transformation and become a ten-meter-tall monster covered in white hair and scales. He looked like a gigantic polar bear with a single big eye. Within it were five rapidly rotating irises. He was a pale phantasm, just like Mister Taihe! The ten cosmic charts behind him exerted a huge amount of pressure.
Tianming had another foe apart from the huge lunk: Tao Ying, who had almost killed Li Fan. She had also turned into her fiend form, but unlike other skyghouls, her body shrank! She stood less than a meter tall and licked Li Fan"s astral blood off her hands.
A colorful pet.i.te girl stood in the corner. Countless floral patterns adorned her body. Her face was green and boasted fearsome fangs. Her eyes had five irises, like a pale phantasm, but the eye itself was shaped like a flower. With a tiny body like that, she was capable of unleas.h.i.+ng explosive strikes. Her b.l.o.o.d.y claws were longer than her arms and shaped like scythes. The ten cosmic charts behind her also glowed with b.l.o.o.d.y power.
"Tao Ying’s a flowerghoul and is even stronger than Zhao Ge. The two of them make a terrifying pair! They can even take on eleventh-level cosmic cartographers together! You definitely aren’t their match!" Li Fan warned in a pleading tone.
"I know!" No matter how enraged Tianming was, he wouldn"t be delusional enough to think that he would be able to take them on without omnisentient power. However, black smog flooded his eyes once more. "The real question is who"s hunting who now."
"What?" Li Fan felt his phantom body shudder, followed by rapid acceleration. It was so fast that he couldn"t help but uncontrollably yell! In a single instant, Tianming charged out from between Zhao Ge and Tao Ying. One was a specter that boasted unmatched raw strength, while the other was blazing fast. Yet Tao Ying didn"t manage to catch up to Tianming, even with her murderous sprint.
"What?" The two of them struck nothing but air and their expressions immediately changed. Tao Ying recalled how fast Tianming had reacted to save Li Fan.
"This speed!" Li Fan turned back. "Don"t tell me he"s gonna—"
Right as Li Fan thought that, Tianming"s body came to a sudden stop. Li Fan saw the look of terror on a gold ring disciple through the strands of Tianming"s white hair.
"Come! I"ll take you along on my slaughterfest!" Tianming said.
"h.e.l.l, don"t try to impress me like some girl you"re courting!" Li Fan had no doubt that he would be swooning over Tianming if he had been a girl, being carried on his back like that.
But while Li Fan wasn"t a girl, the disciple in front of Tianming was. She enjoyed many privileges in Myriadpath Valley by sole virtue of her gender, being spoiled since her childhood, so she cursed at Tianming with a full sense of ent.i.tlement. "You tainted filth—"
Before she could finish, Tianming rammed straight through her body with his right leg. Lan Huang had Myriadstar Swordrings drilling through her astral body, crus.h.i.+ng her six cosmic charts into a firework of astrons!
"Huang Ying!"
Tianming, a tainted beastmaster, had killed a specter with a single kick! A black ring holder killed a gold ring female disciple! n.o.body would believe a word of it if it ever got out, but that was only the beginning.
"Brother, don"t! My life isn"t worth anything! It"s not worth your rage at all!" Li Fan cried.
"This has nothing to do with you. I"m just trying to make them understand."
"Understand what?"
"Understand that all life is equal before death!"
"f.u.c.k you and your sophistry!" Li Fan was just as stupefied as Huang Daoxiong and the rest.
"What’re you two tenth-level cosmic cartographers doing?! Get him!" Huang Daoxiong roared. He didn"t think that Tianming would dare to kill people even in a situation like this. If he had known, he wouldn"t have personally shown up and let Zhao Ge and Tao Ying handle Tianming themselves! Learning to fear, all the other disciples ran.
Zhao Ge and Tao Ying chased Tianming with angry roars. Tao Ying scattered flowers wherever she blitzed through, but not even that was enough to catch up!
Huang Daoxiong heard the sound of slaughter coming from behind him. Turning back and looking, he saw yet another sixth-level cosmic cartographer gold ring holder slain by the Grand-Orient Sword. Tianming"s Prime Starchain then came whipping out, sending Huang Daoxiong rolling across the floor. Right after that, Tianming managed to make it into the group of fleeing disciples. The smog in his eyes and his cold smile made him look even more fiendish than the transformed specters!
Frightened, Huang Daoxiong snapped out of it and yelled, "Gather up and fight!"
If they ran around on their own, they would quickly be hunted down. But if they huddled together, they would be able to hold Tianming until Zhao Ge and Tao Ying came to get him! His reaction was fast indeed.
"Do you think that’ll work?" Electricity crackled erratically as a white lightning array appeared amidst the group. The next moment, Tianming"s black lightning-clad body appeared there. He had gotten even stronger! He raised his swords and killed one gold ring holder after another.
Huang Daoxiong watched in a stupor as his playmates of decades died one after another in horror and agony. Like Huang Jihuang, the thought of his own death had never occurred to him.
The propaganda and history of Myriadpath Valley had told him that only gold ring holders killed black ring holders, not the other way round. There had been barely any historical precedent. And even if it did happen, there wouldn’t be dozens of dead gold ring holders at once! It simply wasn"t something people were willing to believe.
Huang Daoxiong hadn"t been ready for this at all!
