Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2876 - Killing Two Birds With One Stone

"Li Fan!!" Meng Ying exclaimed. Their trembling roar was enough to reveal the turmoil in their hearts at that moment. They had already warned Li Fan to abandon the ‘bait’—Li Tianming—and quickly leave.

But Li Fan insisted on giving himself ten more breaths of time!

They could only wait! However, just as the ten breaths had passed, what came from the battlefield was the heart-rending scream of Li Fan. Hearing the scream, Meng Ying was instantly stunned and their scalps went numb.

"What's happening?"

"Those bugs gathered into a metallic sea, I can’t see anything!" In such a chaotic battlefield, the shielding effect of Yin Chen was significant. Together with Tianming's wonder, they were on par with the ephemeral world wonder.

"Li Fan, leave now!" Many eightpart apparitions rushed into the sea of silver insects and shouted with Meng Ying’s voice.

"Save me!" Li Fan screamed.

"Save?" No one else had entered the silver insect sea; in other words, Li Fan had lost to Tianming! After realizing that, Meng Ying, like Shenxi Xingtian, felt a bit overwhelmed.

"Just how monstrous is this Li Tianming? He’s even capable of defeating people from Myriadpath Valley? His cultivation data in the wondersky realm started from an ordinary god. How, in just a few decades, could he possibly defeat someone close to the peak of Cosmic Cartography!" Meng Ying was shocked and moved. They had known that Tianming was strong, but they hadn’t expected him to be so ridiculous. It was even more terrifying than the growth history of Yi Daiyan!

They did want to save Li Fan, but the situation was equally unfavorable for them. When they increased the number of eightpart apparitions attacking Tianming's wonder domain, and when they sought to find Li Fan by slaughtering the Yin Chen sea from all directions, their bodies were facing close-range pursuit from Xiaodao.

Lin Xiao, Lin Changkong, and other members of the Lin family—all of whom had the traditional spirit of the Swordgod Lin Clan—actively attacked the eightpart apparition wonder when they arrived.

"Trouble!" What made Meng Ying the most uncomfortable was that the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb and Gladean Ruins had arrived. To control the battlefield, the range of the ephemeral world wonder was very large, almost comparable to the combined size of the two enormous astralships.

The two war machines forcibly squeezed in. Although they couldn't destroy the structures of the wonders, their volume still let them greatly affect its ability to move! Moreover, in the next moment, Lin Xiong, Lin Chongyang, and other council hall members, along with their lifebound beasts, rushed out of the astralships. Yin Chen guided them to Meng Ying's location, and they all rushed toward them.

Of course, they couldn’t be opponents for Meng Ying; they just wanted to reduce the power of the two infinitum-class wonders, making it easier for Xiaodao to fight. The Swordgod Lin Clan never feared to fight and thus suppressed the wonderian pair.

"Li Fan! Where are you?" Meng Ying became anxious, but anxiety was useless. When they shouted, Tianming directly suppressed Li Fan’s cosmic charts and, using the grand lexicon wonder, sent them into the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, including the Primordial Demonshade that wanted to escape. It had also been taken down.

The severely injured Li Fan could only shout, as even his spatial ring had been confiscated by Tianming. Thus, he couldn't use transmission stones to communicate with Meng Ying. With over five hundred Xia words surrounding him, he was tightly suppressed.

Inside the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb was also Tianming's grandmother, Dongshen Yue. She was idle and had nothing to do, so she directly took out her skull-headed cane and imprisoned Li Fan. That way, Tianming could be freed up and merge with the control center of the tomb.

"The risky play is over!" Having returned to the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, Tianming was completely safe and no longer needed to act as bait anymore. This time, he had really maximized his value.

Exposing himself to Li Fan and Meng Ying had indeed been extremely dangerous. If he couldn't beat Li Fan, he would be even worse off than the specter and would lose the good situation the Sun and Ebonia were in, affecting the fate of tens of trillions of lives. It could thus be seen how risky his play had actually been, as well as how much pressure he’d been under.

But fortunately, he had succeeded!

"Capturing Li Fan and getting the extremely deadly Primordial Demonshade. It's simply killing two birds with one stone." Without attacking, he wouldn't have known that Li Fan had such a terrifying thing in his hands! It was an unexpected profit, but even so, he wasn’t entirely satisfied.

"I do so enjoy kicking a dog when he's down." And to Tianming, Meng Ying was that dog.

After taking control of the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, he immediately transformed into a black and gold nine-headed mechanical dragon! He was invulnerable.

"Normally, an infinitum-class astralship shouldn't be able to pose a threat to a foundationeer. But Meng Ying’s a wondermancer, and to exert the strength of their wonders, they must be spread out. The eightpart apparition wonder is like an army of thousands! Although I can't touch their main bodies, the interference of the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb can greatly reduce the strength of their wonders."

Under his control, the nine dragon heads accumulated nova source and unleashed it. Fiendvore Dragonbreath!

Black-and-gold flames spewed out like giant dragons, piercing into the ephemeral world wonder. The nine flames, like nine giant dragons, burned thousands of eightpart apparitions, and many ephemeral world illusions were incinerated, burning out on the spot!

"Your daughter’s already suffering, and without the protection of an astralship, you dare to swagger around outside my Sun? Since you've come, don't leave!" Tianming controlled the mechanical dragon, rushing into the group of eightpart apparitions and swallowing them up with its mouths. It was like a fierce beast entering a pond—even though the beast itself couldn't eliminate the 'water,' it could roll around, causing it to splash everywhere and making it impossible for the illusions and apparitions to coordinate.

Meng Ying's real opponent was still Xiaodao! The real headache for them was him and his gourd. It was like a living being and could fight on its own, with a quirky and excellent coordination with the newly minted foundationeer.

"Li Fan’s gone silent!"

"Could he have been killed by Li Tianming...?" Tianming was obviously in control of the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, and Li Fan had disappeared from their wonder domain! Meng Ying widened their eyes and their faces grew bleak. The two looked at each other, knowing that this was bad.

"Even if he isn’t dead, he might’ve been locked up in the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb!"

"Lin Xiaodao’s a foundationeer. Just the pair of us can't save him."

"Let's go!"

Only at that moment did they finally realize that they had to give up.

"That Li Tianming is indeed a poisonous bait!"

They wanted to stay calm, but Li Fan hadn’t been able to and had made a wrong move. Meng Ying had no time to think about how to face Mister Taihe; there was only one path in front of them: escape.

The two suddenly retracted their wonders. Ignoring the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb and Lin Xiao’s group, they focused it all on Xiaodao so they could have a chance of fleeing!
