Beastmaster of the Ages Chapter 2397: Return of Fifth and Seventh

Chapter 2397: Return of Fifth and Seventh

"Was that in the past?" The golden figure seemed perturbed.

"Right now, I have a new identity. Ive been reborn," said ’Lin Jianxing’.

"Oh. It’s a good identity to adopt." The golden figure paused for a moment. "Senior, your target is constantly protected by elites of the Lin Clan. My own identity would easily be exposed if I were to approach them to assassinate him. It would do my reputation as the ninth ranker harm to assassinate a mere child. Should you be able to help me, Senior, itd be ideal."

If that hadnt been the case, he would have acted long ago. Tianming basically only traveled between the Caeli Vault and Brokensword Peak. He didn’t even go to the Swordsoul Purgatory or out to shop at the corporation, leaving the golden figure few chances.

"Very well, hehehe...." Lin Jianxing nodded.

"Senior, how may the ebons repay you for this favor?" At the end of the day, this was a transaction. Lin Jianxing had offered to help, so he must expect something in turn.

"A favor?" Lin Jianxing winked a few times while his mouth kept smiling. "I want" All of a sudden, he turned back and opened his mouth wide! Inside was a human tongue, yet it stretched tens of meters into the Infinitum Swordsea.

"Huh?!" The golden figure was stunned.

Lin Jianxing pulled back his tongue and constricted it really hard, as if he had caught something, yet there seemed to be nothing there.

"Is there something there?"

"Yes. It’s very good at hiding.... Look closely," Lin Jianxing said with an eerie smile.

The golden figure’s abyssal eyes focused on the object. He stretched his hand out to the tip of the tongue and grabbed something. "A metallic... insect?" He gave it a pinch, causing the bug to turn into a silver cockroach that struggled nonstop. "What in the world is this? It’s too good at hiding. I wasn’t able to detect it even though it was just some ten meters away from me...."

"Its Lin Feng’s eyes and ears. That means he’s aware of everything we said just now," Lin Jianxing said. Even so, he didn’t seem too bothered; instead, he took the insect back and toyed around with it with a look of curiosity.

"Is that the child spawn of a lifebound beast? How could something without intelligence transmit information?" the golden figure asked.

"Don’t bother trying to figure it out. Let’s wipe out our traces and lay low. If we’re too late, they’ll invite you to be their guest."

There would be no way for the golden figure to go for the kill in that case. He was faced with a choice.

"Fuck all... your ancestors," Yin Chen cursed.

......

The sea near Brokensword Peak was rather tumultuous. Countless swords clashed with each other nonstop, leaving many silver marks on the stone cliffs as the powerful winds created countless roiling waves in them. All of a sudden, a pink sun rose through the surface of the sea, glowing so brightly that its light pierced the darkness of Ebonia, illuminating a good part of Brokensword Peak.

The pink sun rose higher and higher into the sky, shining light everywhere. Above it, the figure of a young girl with pink hair appeared, her eyes slowly opening to reveal the hidden power contained within.

"Aaaaah!" it loudly shrieked, causing the pink star to shudder. Powerful fundamental cosmic force slammed into the formation of Brokensword Peak, creating countless pink flashes. The pink flames that fell into the black sea dyed it red. It was none other than Tianming’s seventh lifebound beast, Ji Ji, the First Aeonic Ancestral Star!

Its explosive personality could be seen in how it had reawakened and let those wild energies slam into Brokensword Peak, destroying many ancient trees and boulders in an instant. Tianming had allowed it to absorb the energy within the sea as it was filled with dense nova source. Using Vaporize had depleted quite a lot of Ji Ji’s energy and vitality, so it wolfed down as much as it could and constantly grew in size.

Tianming’s breakthroughs while it was slumbering meant that it could absorb even more energy than before. It converted the nova source of Ebonia into genesis ancestral nova source. Strictly speaking, genesis ancestral nova source had different grades, which would change as Ji Ji’s star count rose. Tianming recalled that it could grow far bigger, based on the size of the pink star he had seen in the dreamscape.

The brilliant pink sun near Brokensword Peak looked gentle from a distance, but up close, one could see the volatile energy that raged within it. Ji Ji’s spiritform stood up and stretched lazily. Its nose twitched and it opened both eyes to look around. "I’m awake. Is anyone around?"

"Over here!" Countless silver insects rose through the ocean surface and crawled over Brokensword Peak. As it enveloped the mountain, it caused it to look like a silver sword from a distance. That was how many bodies Yin Chen now had! It had lost about five billion bodies during the ranking event, then left behind four billion or so in the Oldgod Domain after the event was over, yet within a short ten days, its numbers had grown back to ten billion thanks to Lin Xiao’s personal mines.

"Fifth? It’s just you? What about Little Li? He promised me pleasure balls. I wont let him get away with it," Ji Ji said.

"What Fifth? I am... big brother!" the insects shouted.

"My big brother? You can’t even speak nearly as well as I can." Ji Ji rolled its eyes. Its spiritform descended to the ground and caught one of the metal butterflies by its wing. "Tell Little Li to immediately get his ass back to me. It’s time he paid the price he promised."

"Pleasure balls? As far... as I... know, those... are things... he uses... together with... Ling’er Linger."

"Used together? Whatre they for? I have to see it with my own eyes. Those two keep sneaking around. They must want to keep the good stuff for themselves," Ji Ji said with a look of suspicion.

"Your big... brother here.. knows how... they’re used," a cockroach proudly said. It was everywhere at all timesnothing could escape its sight.

"Then, tell me!"

"Ji Jis... still too... young to... know so... I won’t... tell you," Yin Chen said with a snicker.

"You little!" Ji Ji rolled its eyes and looked around, only to see a mini ship return. "Oh, he’s back."

"Of course... he’s back! There was... a plot... to kill... them but... I foiled... it haha!" The insects swarmed toward the ship like a stream.

When the doors opened, Tianming and the rest stepped out. Tianming had been cultivating at the reges mundi level of the Caeli Vault, but had immediately gone to meet Dongshen Yue when hed heard Yin Chen’s report. She then immediately took Feiling and him back to Brokensword Peak.

"Lets lay low. Your grandpa and the others should be arriving soon," Dongshen Yue said.

"Alright."

"Your little bugs are really impressive! Without it, you two would’ve been in serious danger. He’s ranked ninth in the reges mundi ranking. Nobody in our clan will be able to stop him." The golden figure wasn’t Chi Hun, but rather someone from the Shenxi Clan!

"Once I become an astral god, Yin Chen will be able to evolve using ordered manna and grow stronger. Itll be harder to detect then," Tianming said. Yin Chen had been discovered by the old monster possessing Lin Jianxing with the slightest movement. Had it been able to remain hidden, it would have heard their entire plan.

"It’s still around ten thousand stars. Given your merit points, you’d be able to get enough to bring it above ninety thousand," Dongshen Yue said.

"Ji Ji’s awake as well." The pink star was much larger than before, a sign of its growing power. "If it evolves, surely it’ll be even better at what it can do." Tianming had seen how impressive Ji Ji’s Vaporize was within the ancestral world.

"Oh, so I’m not invisible to you yet, am I?" Ji Ji’s spiritform said, nestled within Feiling’s embrace as it shot a pissed-off look at Tianming.

"How can I not see you when you’re so flashy?"

Ji Ji put her hand out.

"What’s up?" Tianming asked.

"Balls!" Ji Ji said, eyes wide and serious.

Tianming looked at Feiling. She knew what was going on and glared at him. Just as things were getting awkward, Lin Xiao returned.

"Let’s deal with serious matters first. You guys go play among yourselves," Tianming said.

With Brokensword Peak being the main base of the second branch and having an impressive formation, it was safe there for now. Lin Changkong, Lin Chongyao, and Lin Xiong had also come with Lin Xiao to secure Tianming.

"The enemy hasn’t acted yet, right?" Lin Xiao asked.

"Not yet. Feng’er’s lifebound beasts heard their conversation and immediately notified me," Dongshen Yue said.

It had actually been a coincidence. After Yin Chen’s numbers had grown, itd returned to Tianming through the sea, where itd just so happened to run into the two malicious actors right during their meeting. Just a few days prior, Yin Chen wouldn’t have had enough bodies for that wide of a coverage to discover it.

"What an intriguing lifebound beast. It’s perfect for wars and battles," Lin Changkong said, awed.

"Wait, have those little things spied on me before?" First Branch Master Lin Chongyao said in joking fashion.

"I did! You have... many pretty... hidden concubines..."

As Yin Chen was speaking, Lin Chongyao begged, "Please stop exposing me!"
