Chapter 2383 - Portable Star
There were many divine astralships above the Oldgod Domain, casting their bright lights across the whole area. Tianming could barely open his eyes.
"It’s so bright. Am I back?" When he got used to it and looked around, he noticed that he was at the entrance of the Oldgod Domain. Ahead of him was a large group of black-robed elites! Hundreds of them cast their deathly gazes on him, applying pressure that could crush him. Yet he oddly didn’t have much of a bodily reaction to that pressure. It felt like the pressure had dissipated through the countless ’holes’ in his body.
They’re all ebons! While he felt no pressure, he still felt the chill from their cold gazes. The one standing in the very front looked like a venomous silver snake. The silver soul eyes on his palms seemed utterly terrifying. He kept Tianming locked there with his soul domain. Where’s Grandpa and Grandma? Didnt they come to pick me up, or were they chased away?
He held his breath to make himself calm down. Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue would no doubt come for him! After all, Lin Yun and Lin Ziqing were there as well, standing among the ebons as they shot him judgmental looks.
"What a nice place you chose to show up at. You practically walked into the hands of the rex mundi," Lin Ziqing said, unable to stifle her laughter. Despite her schadenfreude, she was unable to hide how troubled she was at learning that Tianming had killed Shenxi Shang. Lin Yun and she couldn’t help but feel the urge to hide their heads in a hole when they first heard of it. They endlessly apologized to Chi Hun for any perceived offense.
"Rex Mundi, please," Lin Yun said, bowing deep. He then turned toward Tianming and said, "Disciple Lin Feng, you killed ebon disciples using unsavory methods during the minor reges mundi ranking event and ruined the reputation of the Swordgod Lin Clan. The clan has decided to let the ebons handle your judgment."
His proclamation on behalf of the Lin Clan as a whole shocked many spectators into silence.
"This Lin Yun is truly shameless."
"What a pathetic dog...."
Chi Hun, the tenth rex mundi, levitated toward Tianming like a wraith without a word. He held his arm outstretched. It felt like the entire world was under his control, and Tianming wasn’t able to move a single inch. With someone from the council making that judgment call, once Tianming was brought to the territory of the ebons, there was no way Lin Xiao would be able to get him back. All of it only had to be done before Yi Daiyan decided to interfere. It would be a miracle if she made a move to retrieve Tianming by going straight into ebon territory.
Things couldn’t be any worse for Tianming. "Wait a second! I want to know what kind of rules I broke! You have to show proof!" But alas, no sound came out at all with Chi Hun there. The deathly stillness in the air had completely locked him down.
Chi Hun was the tenth rex mundi, in other words, the tenth most powerful person in the entire Infinitum Mundus. He didn’t bother to listen to anything Tianming wanted to say, intent only on taking him away. Tianming couldn’t even move his albi in the slightest as he faced down the most terrifying being he had met so far. He felt even more helpless than he had when hed been caught by Gongshu Ding. The gap between their powers was as wide as the difference between a dragonfly and a towering, ancient tree! How could a dragonfly possibly shake a tree like that? Chi Hun’s palm seemed as vast as a whole world.
Everyone knew that it was over for him. Lin Xiao and the others were still rushing out of the Oldgod Domain, but they wouldn’t make it. Luck wasn’t on their side; Lin Xiao had simply chosen the wrong spot. It was almost like the heavens wanted to eradicate Tianming by dropping him right at the ’doorstep’ of the ebons. It was an incredible shame that such an unprecedented genius would be meeting his end in such a miserable fashion. It was almost certain that he would have no future after he was brought into ebon territory.
Tianming felt so oppressed that he wanted to puke. He couldn’t accept this! The mere gaze of this elite before him caused all his albi to shudder from the power of order.
Wait a second.... He felt a weird sensation just as he was about to be taken away. The order of the enemy flooded through the holes in his albi! It felt like the orders of the ebons had been absorbed, lightening the pressure on his body. Chi Hun stretched out his hand and attempted to pull Tianming into the divine astralship with the power of order. Right as he turned around, Tianming managed to shake off the hold and run away! It was unbelievable!
"Rex Mundi!" Lin Yun and the rest’s eyeballs almost popped out of their heads.
"Hows that possible?!" Being elites in their own right, they knew how insanely powerful Chi Hun’s order suppression was! Even the tenth rex mundi himself seemed to be at a loss. He furiously turned back and was stupefied to see Tianming escaping.
"Give chase!" he yelled when he snapped out of it. "Something about him is odd. Don’t use order, just directly bring him back."
The power difference was still there. Tianming didn’t manage to go far before he was surrounded by middle-aged people who were far stronger than him.
"Do you think you can run?" A few of them charged toward him in an instant, pressing down on him with their hands. It hurt and he was subdued again!
"Hehehe...." They pulled Tianming back toward the divine astralship.
"He’s really a goner this time."
Despite the odd turn of events, the result seemed unchanged to the spectators. Tianming was brought into an ether-class divine astralship without being able to say a word.
"It’s over."
Chi Hun and the others also entered.
"Take off!" With a loud rumble, the black eyeball ship rose into the air.
Right then, Lin Xiao finally left the Oldgod Domain. The spectators pitifully watched him as he yelled, "Feng’er!"
There was nothing the others could do but sigh at the sight.
"It was all for nothing."
"Poor Second Patriarch.... He lost his son, now he’s going to lose his grandson, too."
People were resignedly shaking their heads when another unbelievable thing happened: there was a ground-shaking explosion in the sky! They all saw the ether-class divine astralship explode! No such thing had happened in the Infinitum Mundus before! Not to mention, it looked like the explosion had been caused by the sudden appearance of a black star that was covered in hexagonal holes!
"What the hell is that?!"
Many disciples in the Oldgod Domain had seen it before the fight between the top six had startedit was the Order Relic!
