Saint Moon Guide Liu Qinghuan finally reacted, but he was too late. The two moon guides that Tianming had targeted panicked as the sword formation neared them.
"Don't attack us! You're a genius! We won't dare to touch you!"
"You're the next Ninemoon Goddess!"
All they could do was try to defend themselves with their totems; however, they were curious as to why Tianming didn't listen to them even though they stopped fighting. Under those circumstances, they couldn't resist his sure-kill move at all. The Grand-Orient Swords and decapath era godswords easily cut through the firmament grandswords and dreameater blooms.
"Don't! No!"
"Don't kill us! It's a misunderstanding!"
Despite their pleas, all they saw were Tianming's cold eyes.
"Sorry, I don't want to die, nor do I want to be controlled. So you'll have to die in my place."
If Sovereign Xi could leash him, he didn't doubt that the celestial orderians could do the same. Recently, he had learned that no genius could possibly stand up to true power. With no real backing, his talents would only ensure he would be subject to envy and malice.
"I don't want to die or be someone's puppet! That's why I have to be ruthless."
The two grand moon guides followed in Yueshen Wushuang's footsteps after the attack. The moment Tianming had shown all ten of his totems, they had already lost all courage to fight back. And even if they had, they might not even be able to defend against the Moonnight Subdued Strike. Their corpses fell lifelessly down.
"Three to go! Lan Huang, hurry!" Tianming didn't stop for a single moment and charged toward his strongest foe, the ninth-level saint moon guide! Liu Qinghuan had already reacted right after Tianming showed all his totems. However, his reaction wasn’t in time to save the other two.
It seemed like Ying Huo, Meow Meow, and Xian Xian could still hold the other two grand moon guides back with the Greenspark Tower and abilities enhanced by their banes. Lan Huang and Xian Xian's roots were rapidly absorbing the lakewater in the meantime. The longer this lasted, the more damage the formation core would accrue. Cracking sounds could already be heard from outside and Tianming knew just how dangerous the situation was becoming.
Now that he had shown all ten of his totems, he had to destroy the formation core and make sure to silence everyone that had seen them. Liu Qinghuan had to die! Tianming charged toward the loftily named saint moon guide. Like Li Wudi and Ouyang Jianwang, he was an avid drinker, but unlike them, he was an enemy! Even with ten totems, Tianming still considered him a threat.
"If you had so many totems, you should've just come clean with it. What's the point in killing people here and destroying the formation? Fulfilling some hero fantasy?" Liu Qinghuan said in his deep voice.
"I'm only asking this once. Are you going to stop me from destroying the formation core?" Tianming asked.
"Of course. I'd even kill a celestial orderian if they’re harming the divine moonrace. I'd pluck their head off!"
Hearing that, Tianming understood that whether it be the divine moonrace or rootbeast race, they were his enemies. Even though the saint moon guide might not kill him, he would definitely stop the destruction of the formation. Being a beastmaster himself, he had already sent his two lifebound beasts out from the building toward Lan Huang. Stopping the formation core's destruction was his main priority. No matter how powerful Lan Huang was, it wouldn't be able to withstand the attacks of two ninth-level ascendant lifebound beasts.
No matter whether he dares to kill a decabane like me, he's going to be a big problem! Only by destroying the formation could he cause the sovereign and Bodhi to fight one another and ensure the Flameyellow Continent’s survival. Not to mention, letting word of his ten totems get out would endanger him by attracting the celestial orderians' attention. Li Wudi had warned him of something along the lines of an experiment. That showed how dangerous a predicament he, Qingyu, and Ye Lingfeng were in.
The astralscape of order was a war zone of celestial proportions. Wars there were fought and won through many generations. The ones that survived were no doubt incredibly powerful. Now that Liu Qinghuan was making himself an obstacle, Tianming had to kill him no matter what, especially with his beasts already moving to stop Lan Huang.
The other elites, including the imperial guide and Sovereign Xi, will be here soon! Should that happen, none of his beasts would be able to do much. Stopping now would be the absolute worst idea.
Liu Qinghuan’s beasts were really huge, and each had three thousand stars. While they couldn't compare to Ying Huo and the rest, they were already at the top of the Divine Moon Realm. One of them was entirely blue and covered in spiky hair. It looked both like a canine and a scaly dragon. The desolate seadragon hound had a huge, canine head and deep blue eyes. Being a water-type lifebound beast, it dove into the Divine Moon Skylake, displacing a lot of water due to its huge body. Swiftly, it bit Lan Huang's kui mountains and flung it out of the lake!
The other was also a canine lifebound beast, covered in red flames. It had eight gigantic flaming wings sprouting from its ribs. When Lan Huang was flung out, the desolate forgehound shot out a gigantic fireball that exploded on contact with it!
Both of them were at the ninth level of power. Lan Huang struggled to survive, let alone continue swallowing water. They didn't show any mercy as they launched a barrage of attacks from the front and back, wounding Lan Huang rapidly. If it weren’t for its inherent defenses and the aid of the Greenspark Tower, its two heads would have already been bitten off.
