Beastmaster of the Ages-Chapter 3425 - Villain, I Shall End You!

As long as the valley lord didn't leave, Tianming didn't dare to make any moves in the Outer Yin. He even had to give up on fighting others for baleflame.

As the number of casualties reduced, the folks of Myriadpath Valley no longer feared the mistrunners and began searching the Outer Yin for treasures once more. On the other hand, the increased number of Yin Chens that Tianming had spread out gave him an edge in tracking down baleflame and other kinds of items, like cosmic artifacts and some stone slabs that contained battle techniques, some of which were fortuna class. He would be bringing all of those back to Infinitum.

"Yet another decade has passed.... For now, I don't need to trade for any ordered manna for myself. I suppose I could just get some other stuff and bring it all back to Infinitum." He would be using the stipend he got for free to exchange for those resources, and it truly felt liberating.

Over the past ten years of cultivation, he had spent most of his time inside the monochrome planet order. His caelum paced through the hexagonal continents, visiting the cities and observing the odd bee-headed people to try divining the fundamentals of order from their every characteristic, causing his own orders to grow.

"If I count the baleflame and springwater I took from Qitian Muchen, the five kegs of springwater I get from my stipend, and all the baleflame I found here over the past ten years, I should have thirty kegs in total." Tianming planned to use all of it to see if he would be able to advance to the second level of the Foundation stage.

Every single advancement in the Foundation stage was exceedingly difficult. It would already be incredible if he could break through once in a decade without using any order fragments. A major pathkeeper like Suishen Yuan was five hundred years older than Suishen Yao but was only two levels her senior, a sign that it had taken him close to two centuries for a single breakthrough—and he was among the most talented people in Myriadpath Valley!

Thirty kegs of resources, coupled with the caeli of an astral giant was something that Tianming had and Suishen Yuan didn't. At the thought of that, Tianming secretly left the Outer Yin and returned to the Myriadpath Celestial Formation. Myriadpath Valley was much quieter than usual, due to everything that was happening in the background because of the Three Exalted Houses. Each house was dealing with their own secret trouble.

"I should go back to the Yin-Yang World right after claiming the springwater I've accumulated over the past ten years. I heard the calm season won't last much longer." Tianming planned to first attempt to break through and go for one last spurt to see if he could obtain the fortuna-class astralship. "That thing’s far too precious!"

He still enjoyed quite a bit of popularity back at Myriadpath Valley.

"Long time no see, Pathkeeper Li!"

"Wow, you entered seclusion for so long this time!"

"You aren’t just talented, but you’re also hardworking! You truly put others to shame."

Everyone, including Eminent Jiguang and Suishen Yao, had the impression that he’d calmed down after his marriage, blending in with the crowd. It was evident from the rumors he had heard from Yin Chen.

"Pathkeeper Li seems to be much quieter than before."

"Perhaps his talent’s run out as expected."

"His previous advancement was far too rapid. He must've harmed his foundations because his rapid breakthroughs were unstable."

"What a shame."

"Does anyone know if he's broken through to the Foundation stage yet?"

"I haven't heard anything that confirms it. If he did, given his personality, he would've already found someone to be his stepping stone to prove himself."

"That's true!"

Tianming could do naught but laugh at the fact that they were completely unaware of his murderous streak in the Yin-Yang World. They would be in for a huge shock once they found out the truth.

On the way to the Myriadpath Sourcespring, he passed through the Ascension Colosseum. His name still shone bright at the top of the Fortuna Ranking, with Suishen Yao's name directly under his. The third spot, however, no longer belonged to Qitian Jian.

"Looks like he's older than five hundred now and he’s moved on to the Maniverse Ranking.... Or rather, given his current level of power, he wouldn't even be ranked." The Maniverse Ranking was mainly for those over the age of two thousand. Cultivators at that age were near their prime.

Tianming couldn't resist looking at the ranking and saw Yumo Qiangming at the very top, with Suishen Yue in third place. The names seemed to bother him.

"I can defeat seventh-level foundationeers even though I'm only at the first level. If I break through again, wouldn’t I be evenly matched with Suishen Yue?" Tianming had fought Yumo Fuyun, a seventh-level foundationeer major pathkeeper who was one level weaker than Suishen Yue. It was the moment he had realized that major pathkeepers weren't as capable of fighting above their levels as he had originally imagined.

Anyone who could become an eminent was a genius among geniuses. If Suishen Yue was pushed to his limit, he might be able to fight eminents, but it didn't mean he was much stronger than eighth-level foundationeers. In a real fight to the death, nobody could say for sure who would win. Much of it depended on their condition, techniques, and the environment around them.

"No matter whether or not I can kill them, I've already defeated Yumo Fuyun, someone in the top hundred. If I improve again, I'll definitely be able to join the top ten on the Maniverse Ranking! At the age of a hundred and ten, I'll be able to rival major pathkeepers who’re two thousand years old...."

If that day truly came, Tianming would love to see the look on the faces of those who were talking about him as if he had run out of steam. Right as he thought that, his transmission stone lit up. It was Suishen Yao! He’d given her the slip the last time he had gone to the Grand Myriadpath Ruins with her.

"Ahem...." He cleared his throat and took the call.

Suishen Yao's projection appeared. She was so angry that her pink hair fluttered nonstop as she roared, "Villain, I shall end you! Get the hell back here for your death sentence!"

Tianming let out some cold sweat. "Come on, let's talk it out. Don't bring divorce up over every little fight—"

"You little!" Her rage persisted, and the more she looked at him, the angrier she got. "Where are you?"

"I’m just about to reach the Myriadpath Sourcespring."

"Go there and wait for me!"

The call cut off right after she said that and Tianming felt a headache brewing.

"Forget it, the calm season’s almost over anyway. I'll spend some time placating her, lest she sends people to go looking for me and limits my freedom even more."

He went to wait for her near the Myriadpath Sourcespring. Not long after, a pink-haired girl in snow-white pajamas flew down toward him barefoot and stomped right into him.

"Dang!" He didn't think that she would outright physically attack him like that and immediately circulated his cosmoforce. She crashed into him but didn't hurt him, instead ending up in his embrace!
