Beastmaster of the Ages

dinated perfectly, one in the front and the other in the back.
Ying Huo had assimilated five hundred strands of Invincible Sword Ki and possessed tactics that were better than many beastmasters.

”The first on the Sky Ranking? ”

In truth, no other genius in the Divine Capital could leap from first place on the Earth Ranking to first place on the Sky Ranking in such a short time.

They battled two-on-one.
Tianming had the advantage in numbers, especially with Feiling on his side.
Whether or not this was the real Chen Jinghong, there would be no difference in strength, judging from Tianming’s encounter with Dongyang Fengxiao.

Chen Jinghong moved like a black phantom.
As a sky saint, he could fly in the air; if Tianming didn’t have the Celestial Wings, he would be at a disadvantage.

Their weapons collided and immediately, the immense power from the black spear enlightened Tianming to just how difficult it was to overcome five levels and defeat a second-level sky saint.
Chen Jinghong unleashed a sky saint battle art, the Starry Night Phantom Spear.
The spear in his hand resembled a phantom that could kill amid the shadows.

Fortunately, Tianming was accompanied by Meow Meow.
With its small body, the black cat looked for opportunities to attack, all the while raining down Chaos Disaster on its opponent.
Unfortunately, Chen Jinghong was quick to dodge.

Soulchasing Hellthunder!

Just then, crimson lightning shot from between Meow Meow’s eyes.
Chen Jinghong flashed left and right, but couldn ’t stop this ability that could track his vital ki.
As long as it was a living creature, Meow Meow’s Soulchasing Hellthunder couldn’t be stopped.
The bloody lightning entered its opponents body, wreaking havoc in his veins.

”Go! ”

As Meow Meow sped along, black thunder erupted from its body, forming Misty Hellthunder that fell and suppressed Chang Jinghong.
Under the pressure, Chen Jinghong had to focus his attacks on Tianming, since his own lifebound beast was preoccupied.

Starry Night Phantom Spear—Starfall! His moves were ever-changing, like tens of thousands of stars descending from the sky upon Tianming.

This was a powerful move that demonstrated the strength of the first place on the Sky Ranking.
However, as a patternscribe, Tianming had plenty of means.
As soon as Chen Jinghong fell into Feiling ’s Temporal Field and was blocked by the Spatial Wall, Tianming threw out a Mountshield Tome, which transformed into a mountain and shielded him from his opponent ’s attack.

The Mountshield Tome exploded, the mountain crumbling apart.
At that moment, Tianming suddenly charged forth with the Grand-Orient Sword in both hands.
Shenxiao Sword Art’s fourth strike combined with at least seven hundred strands of Invincible Sword Ki and countered Chen Jinghong’s spear.

Like a river overflowing its banks, the mighty sword ki came crashing, washing up the black spear and into Chen Jinghong as Misty Hellthunder enveloped Chen Jinghong ’s head.
Invincible Sword Ki and black thunder tore through the shield formed by his saint ki.

Roaring, Chen Jinghong resisted, storming out from Meow Meow’s Misty Hellthunder with a sudden counteroffensive.

Starry Night Phantom Spear—Blackriver Brightumbra! A river of stars came crashing down.

”Meow!”

Just as Chen Jinghong ’s attention was focused on Tianming, a small figure darted out, chomping down on his arm! Meow Meow’s Myriadfiend Venomfang sank into his flesh.

With the successful attack, Meow Meow turned and left as a toxin far more terrifying than the Nineshades Poison poured into Chen Jinghong ’s body.
At the same time, Tianming merged all the Invincible Sword Ki into the Grand-Orient Sword and swooped in with the fourth strike of the Shenxiao Sword Art once more.

Thousand-Demise Sword!

The Grand-Orient Sword swept across with an explosion of violent sword ki.
A thousand sword ki fused with the power of the Shenxiao Sword Art, and Chen Jinghong ’s Blackriver Brightumbra shattered.
After all, he was poisoned and in poor condition.
The black spear fell from his hand.
Even if Chen Jinghong dodged, dozens of strands of sword ki still shot toward him.

Because he was uncertain about the man’s identity, Tianming didn’t dare kill him and inflicted no critical injuries.
But this was still enough to leave Chen Jinghong bloodied and covered in sword wounds.
Chen Jinghong was defeated!

Being able to defeat a sky saint means that my strength is almost equal to Godfather’s when he first overcame his tribulation.
But now that it ’s been almost a year, how far has Godfather progressed? Tianming wondered.

“Hehe, I’m going to kill you. ”

As expected, the Blood-Eyed Nightfiend Eagle whizzed toward Chen Jinghong and merged with him.
Having combined into a huge lump, the flesh and blood underwent restructuring—a frightening sight to behold.
In an instant, a bloody monster was formed.

Tianming joined hands with his three lifebound beasts for another battle.
This time, it took them half an hour before Tianming managed to smash his opponent into smithereens and burn the fragments with Ying Huo’s Sixpath Infernal Lotus.

The battle left Tianming and the three beasts injured.
In the second half of the battle, the monster couldn ’t be killed at all.
It was a difficult task even with their joint effort.

Unsurprisingly, the blood transformed into the number “five” and turned into a blood sphere.
