Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 3803 - The Peerless Coffin Man, Li Wudi

Each of the heaven-rings opened, revealing what seemed to be golden vortexes inside.

"Could ghouls come out of there?" Tianming had always suspected a connection between the flameyellow fiends and the devas. Could it really be...?

"What ghouls?" Wudi gave Tianming a disdainful look. "You have no knowledge."

Before Tianming could retort, he saw the chests of the invincible warriors violently shake. Suddenly, endless nova source from the blazing clouds surged into their heaven-rings.

"Fire!" Wudi roared.

From the chests of the hundred-million-strong invincible army, golden red beams of fire shot forth, instantly piercing through the sky.

"So strong!" Although no ghoulish entities emerged from their chests, the destructive attack seemed even more practical!

They aren’t living beings, after all. They're probably modeled after a certain race by our ancestors. In essence, they're part of the Flameyellow Guard Formation, so it makes sense that they can't open a gate to another world like the devas, Tianming thought. But still, they were incredibly powerful!

With the Sun backing them up and as part of a fortuna-class astralguard formation, the combat power of this hundred-million-strong army is at least equivalent to ten million overflower warriors. No, much more than that!

Tianming realized that now that the Sun had reached the fortuna class, it had undergone fundamental changes, becoming a top-tier star! As for how powerful its defenses were, he wasn't sure yet.

Based on past experience, whether it's the Flameyellow Guard Formation or the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, as soon as they reach a certain class, they always end up being the strongest within that class. That meant that not even a maniverse-class astralship would be a major threat anymore!

"Are they still called flameyellow fiends?" Tianming asked.

"They're now called flameyellow skyfiends. And this isn't even their limit!" Wudi said with admiration.

"Anything else? Is that all the combat power this fortuna-class Sun has?" Tianming intentionally provoked his godfather, though he was already quite satisfied.

"You brat, watch this!" After speaking, Wudi, along with his Uncle Tai Xu, dove into the blazing clouds. Uncle Tai Xu transformed into a golden divine dragon, coiling around Wudi as he flew. Although both of them were only eighth-level foundationeers, at that moment they gave Tianming an incredible sense of danger.

"Coffin, come!" Wudi domineeringly roared. The upgraded Flameyellow Coffin suddenly split in two. The lid rested atop Wudi's head, while the much larger coffin body covered the golden divine dragon.

"Damn!" Tianming watched in shock as the Flameyellow Coffin, supported by the power of the Sun, merged into Wudi's body, causing him to swell into something no longer human, but rather something of the same material as the Flameyellow Coffin.

At that moment, Wudi stood a full hundred meters tall. His expression was rigid, exuding an intense aura of death. His divine might surged and a chilling aura of oppression emanated from him.

The golden divine dragon was the same. Its body seemed to have turned metallic, feeling less organic than even a cosmic god!

"Damn, what are you now, the Coffin Man? Is this your new superpower?" Tianming laughed in disbelief.

"Unfilial son, fight me with your Galactic Emperor power and let’s see who's stronger!" Wudi cooly said. From his tone, he was already feeling quite arrogant.

The Flameyellow Coffin was the core of the Flameyellow Guard Formation, so right now he was undoubtedly wielding the full power of the entire Sun. In contrast, Tianming wielded the power of the people. In terms of scale, Tianming indeed had the upper hand!

"Godfather, you're the ultimate home defender!" Wudi’s current power was something the flameyellow ancestors had designed! "If you want a fight, let’s fight!"

Tianming's body surged with omnisentient power, transforming into a brilliant white light as he charged toward the hundred-meter-tall coffin man!

"I’ll crush you!" Wudi smirked and stretched out his hand. At that moment, Tianming felt as though the entire Sun was bearing down upon him. The pressure was unbearable!

With a deafening impact, Tianming's kick landed squarely on Wudi’s palm, but the coffin man remained unmoved. Instead, he closed his fingers around Tianming, gripping him tight and exerting force.

"Fuck! Are you trying to kill me?!" Tianming roared.

"Hmm?" Wudi hesitated, then let go with a cough and coolly said, "Sorry, I couldn’t control my strength. I’m sorry to have made the top genius of the Upper Star Ruin feel inadequate."

Tianming was speechless. That was cheating! He refused to accept it! With power rivaling a tenth-level overflower, he had been held like a petulant child in Wudi's hand.

"Can this level of power take on a cosmic god?" Tianming asked in shock.

"We can try! Because I’m the Flameyellow Coffin, I am the Sun! I'm tough enough, and I have enough energy support. As long as the Sun exists and the Flameyellow Coffin remains intact, I’m immortal!" Wudi domineeringly declared.

"But what if you leave the Sun?" Tianming raised an eyebrow.

"Are you stupid? Then I’m back to being an eighth-level foundationeer!" Wudi scoffed.

"Good heavens, so you're a dragon at home and a worm away. If you aren’t the home defender, then who should be?" Tianming laughed. "But really, this is the full power of the fortuna-class Flameyellow Guard Formation concentrated into a single entity—you! You're essentially the supreme commander of the flameyellow skyfiend army!"

It made perfect sense why Wudi was as strong as he was. After all, it wasn’t his power. It was the power of the entire Sun borrowing his body as its vessel. If he could even hold off a cosmic god, then the Sun would no longer be in danger of being invaded.

"Godfather, even though you have this heaven-defying power, personal breakthroughs are still important. Don't lose sight of that," Tianming reminded him.

"Shut up! You think I need you, the number three genius, to teach me? If my main body gets stronger, this man-coffin fusion state will be even stronger!" Wudi retorted.

"It still has room for growth?" Tianming was amazed. "That’s insane!"

"Eh, it's decent," Wudi smugly said, feigning nonchalance.

"What’re you showing off for? I was praising the flameyellow ancestors, not you! What do you have to be proud of?" Tianming mocked.

"Tsk tsk, I sense an inferiority complex! Understandable!" Wudi sneered.

Tianming was speechless once more.

"Speaking of which, now that the Sun’s reached fortuna class, has your Flameyellow Fusion Formation changed?" Wudi asked.

"The Flameyellow Divine Pillars and Solar Lances have become even more powerful. No other changes for now," Tianming replied.

"The main role of a Fusion Formation is to contain nova source. If it’s grown stronger, that’s already impressive!" Wudi sighed.

The Solar Lances were the Sun’s ultimate offensive weapons against other worlds. However, they were also incredibly conspicuous. The moment they were deployed, they would extend beyond the Flameyellow Guard Formation and the cloaking formation, so Tianming refrained from demonstrating them now.

But one thing was clear: the Sun had transformed into the perfect stellar war machine!
