Chapter 2084 - A New Team Revolving Around Tianming
The astralscape of order was like a dark forest, with flora, deep rivers, high mountains, and all kinds of wildbeasts. The cosmos was also filled with obstructions and large areas of land. Pieces of fragmented stars, space distortions, zodiacal lights, asteroids, shadow storms, secret realms, and the abyss were things that could affect worlds and the movement of astralships. It wasn’t empty at all. Aside from nova sources, it was filled with bits and pieces of everything; cosmic dust was just the most ordinary and most abundant of them all. Throughout the existence of the cosmos, countless strange things had appeared. The remnants of ancient eras were like garbage piled up in the cosmos. The river of history was too long. There might be traces of bygone eras as soon as one left the cluster, and maybe even ancient treasures all over the cosmos. There were many supergravity stars like the Astralium. The cosmic wildbeasts in this dark, starry sky were like beasts in a jungle.
There was a strange pattern in the astralscape of order. As long as an unowned nova source came into existence, cosmic wildbeasts could often locate them ahead of all the races. Many unowned nova sources were actually the birthplaces and habitats of cosmic wildbeasts. The reason was simple: if someone were to drop a piece of candy on the ground, it was usually the ants that were attracted by the smell that found it. If nova source was candy, then ants were cosmic wildbeasts. Although cosmic beasts only had bestiae and were simple life forms, that didn’t mean they weren’t powerful. On the contrary, they could absorb nova source to grow and develop without limitations. Some even grew so powerful they could destroy worlds. Thus, Tianming had to be wary of cosmic wildbeasts as he headed toward the unowned nova source.
"An unowned nova source means it doesn’t have a fusion formation, but the absence of a fusion formation doesn’t necessarily mean it’s unprotected. It takes years and years of preparation to create a new fusion formation, a new world, or even transfer nova source elsewhere." Because of that, Tianming wouldn’t be so stupid as to move the sun directly to the unowned nova source. After stopping in a secluded position, he set off in the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, aiming to investigate the situation first. After passing through the celestial boundary and arriving in this thriving part of the cosmos, he reminded himself to be more cautious. Therefore, it took him almost nine days just to find a position that could conceal the sun. With Ji Ji there, the sun’s current location should be considered very safe.
"Even if something happens, they should be able to hold on for a while with Godfather around." For those on the sun, there wasn’t much difference whether it was wandering in the universe or staying hidden. They continued devoting themselves to construction. The safety of the sun and its future were Tianming's concern.
"This should be an unowned nova source, not a deific-class world." The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb traveled across the cosmos like a giant dragon roaming a rock forest, eighteen eyes staring at the dark abyss ahead. Tianming had already noticed a bright spot that was temporarily the size of a fist. It was much brighter than any other star in the surrounding area. Its brightness meant the tomb was very close to it.
"Be careful." This was also the first time Feiling had ventured out into the cosmos and she was very curious throughout the journey.
"It’s okay. I might be a meager seventh-level solarian once I leave the sun, but Little Fish can use the tomb’s miniaturized nova source for combat. We can protect ourselves even if we encounter strong enemies.” Tianming turned around. Xiaoxiao and Weisheng Moran were looking at the starry sky outside through the dragon’s eye. The three beauties possessed their own unique qualities, and Tianming had brought all three of them out with him this time. How wonderful it was for one man to be accompanied by three women? But he had brought them along because they each had their own strengths. After ending his “long-distance relationship” with Feiling, he would undoubtedly take her with him. The two were currently joined at the hip.
Although the Archaionfiend’s memories were messy, it could still serve as a guide. Xiaoxiao kept a low profile, but had quietly grown stronger since she’d separated from Tianming the last time. Apart from cultivating, Tianming was busy with other matters. Because of the internal war on the sun, as well as the war with Skywolf, his cultivation had been delayed. On the other hand, Xiaoxiao could cultivate without interruptions. Her cultivation level would advance as long as she devoured caeli and she was currently an eleventh-level solarian, four levels above Tianming. Her combat power was also comparable to Mu Ziyan, but except for Tianming, few knew of her achievements. She was the kind of cultivator who made progress in silence.
However, her progress was within reason. Because of the Archaionfiend’s ability to devour caeli, her greatest talent was advancing. No matter how fast she progressed in terms of cultivation level, it couldn't change the fact that she was poor in combat. Without the Archaionfiend Eye, the Archaionfiend had lost a large part of its abilities, so Xiaoxiao’s only advantage was her ability to quickly progress. Although she couldn’t compare to Tianming, she was stronger than most people and could certainly help him. To put it simply, her abilities were enough to serve as his maidservant, assisting him in small matters. Meanwhile, Weisheng Moran was his main combat force after leaving the sun. While Lingfeng and Qingyu were away, the four of them would make up a team once Tianming left the sun.
Wudi had to remain at the base and Yu Ziqian wasn’t as talented as the rest so it was useless for him to tag along. Sovereigns Brightscorch and Starfeather were in charge of managing the people of Violetglory. Finally, there was Ye Chen. Although he’d put all of his effort into cultivation and had kept up with Tianming’s progress, they weren’t exactly like-minded, so his presence would be awkward.
Being accompanied by three women might seem romantic, but in reality, it wasn’t like that at all because of his lifebound beasts. There had been chaos ever since the tomb departed. Ying Huo was messing around, Meow Meow was sleeping, and Xian Xian had transformed into the Radix World Tree, eating and drinking to its heart’s content. The entire tomb was a paradise of flowers. Yin Chen was lining up for a bath on Lan Huang, who had missed the Archaionfiend after parting for such a long time. Lan Huang followed after it for a game of throwing it high into the air, almost forcing the latter to tears. With them around, there would be no peace in the tomb.
