Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 3788 - Eighth, it's Your Turn

A large white bell slammed down and trapped Zhantian Le within. In the darkness, she saw a slender, bright pink girl. "A wonderian? What’s going on here?"

A blinding flash filled the inside of the Soulshaker Bell. Zhantian Le looked up and saw a white-haired man less than two meters in height within the light!

"It's you! Li Tianming!" Zhantian Le had heard about him from her brother. My brother said this monster’s as powerful as a seventh-level overflower and has a soul-type lifebound beast. I have no choice but to hold on until help comes!

She looked around and heaved a sigh of relief when she didn't see a purple-haired specter. If she had been ganged up on by both of them at once, it would be over for her. He might be ridiculously strong, but I should be able to hold on... and maybe even defeat him!

She transformed into her strongest form without delay. Transformed female devas weren’t too different from their male counterparts, sporting shark-like teeth and covered in wormy eyes all over their bodies. Their tongues were covered in reverse hooks and their heads had expressions of joy, anger, and sorrow. The worm eyes added a special kind of disgust to their transformation—unlike Zi Zhen, who only looked fiercer in comparison. Zhantian Le's six cosmic artifacts were probably imperial class, so she wasn't worried about the Soulshaker Bell at all.

"Redbrush ghoul, come!" Her twofold hell-ring rapidly spun, letting out a crunching sound as crimson mist began spreading from it. A garishly red female ghoul pressed against Zhantian Le's head before crawling out of her back and looking at Tianming. The ghoul threateningly stuck its long tongue out. Its eyes were blank and pitch black, and its huge mouth seemed to be smiling in a sinister way. The atmosphere within the Soulshaker Bell turned incredibly eerie right away.

"You’d better lifelink or you won't even be able to take even one of my strikes," Tianming said with the cadence of an absolute ruler, looking down on her from his high throne.

Zhantian Le had wanted to mock him, but suppressed the feeling; she knew that acting arrogant while there were so many unknowns would only result in trouble. "Fine, you asked for it!"

The redbrush ghoul climbed completely out of the hell-ring. When the hell-ring closed up, the ghoul entered Zhantian Le's body, causing her to cry out in pain. Her gray skin turned blood red right away and the worm eyes across her entire body turned bloodshot. Zhantian Le's face transformed into a picture of savagery!

"That's so fucking ugly!" Ying Huo cried. "It's no wonder your little sister didn't want to do it. I’d puke if it was me!"

"Given how they look, I wouldn't be surprised if they were the true abominations created to be a slave race," Tianming said. "Still, lifelinking and transforming make them quite powerful. A part of that ghoul also entered her astral brain to strengthen her resistance against soul attacks."

"Resistance? What a joke! She's just a seventh-level overflower!" Bai Ye said, popping out of Tianming's body.

"You're two infant souls short, so be careful!" Tianming patted his chest to get Eighth to calm down a bit. The redbrush ghoul couldn't sense it, so it wouldn't be too late for it to emerge after Tianming defeated Zhantian Le.

"Go!" Tianming infused his totems in their full simulacrum into his sword. To save time, Bai Ye also emerged from his brain to fight on its own. It leaped onto Zhantian Le, using the very same move it had used against Xing Daoyin. The constant barrage of Phantasmic Bubbles caused Zhantian Le to clutch her head in pain right as she jumped in for the kill.

"Die!" Tianming used the second move of the Greatsun Suishen Art, Flood, slashing toward her throat. Right after launching his sword strike, the Triflair Primordial World finished charging up and unleashed a world-shaking boom as his leg crashed against one of her heads, pushing it against his blade and completely severing it!

"Aaaagh!" Zhantian Le, still enduring Bai Ye's torture, couldn't hit Tianming with her swords at all!

"She's just a seventh-level overflower, after all." Tianming smirked and unleashed fire and lightning from his arms. The explosions made more and more holes in the specter's body as she crashed to the ground in pain.

"More!" Tianming slashed away at her wounds, causing them to deepen as Quadform Radixbreath seeped out of his left leg into Zhantian Le's body, spreading from one astron to the next. Tianming asked Bai Ye, "Do we have enough time?"

"We have a lot! Zhantian Feng’s flipping out at Yanri Shuang's piloting! Hahaha!" Bai Ye said.

"Yanri Shuang's doing rather well, it seems," Tianming said.

"You have me to thank for that, not her! I forced her to do it!" Bai Ye said.

As they talked, Tianming continued to ravage Zhantian Le with a flurry of sword strikes and abilities. Her vita wasn't doing that well against Bai Ye, either.

"You're rather capable for a genius, but I'm simply stronger. I can even rival your big brother!" Tianming said. Killing Zhantian Le wouldn’t be a significant achievement. He was in a whole other league compared to her. The real fun would start when Zhantian Feng arrived.

"Don't kill me! I'll serve you!" she said, choosing to submit to survive.

"You're useless to me!" His words sealed her death sentence. Right then, Tianming noticed that the redbrush ghoul had realized that Zhantian Le would die for sure and was preparing to escape.

"Eighth, it's your turn!" A dead fish eye popped up on Tianming's chest out of nowhere.

"Aaaaaaagh!" shrieked the redbrush ghoul as it was completely sucked into the eye. The eye appeared satisfied and gradually disappeared from Tianming's chest. A small red figure appeared on the gray coffin in his lifebound space.
