Chapter 1766 – Li Tianming, A Decabane
Like countless invisible swords, the sight of ten gigantic, dazzling godswords suddenly pierced every living person’s heart. The celestial orderian army could see them the clearest. As totemancers, they were certain that these were totems, and with their vision, they could tell there were ten with just one glance. In terms of totems, the number ten surpassed the limits of their imagination and became the stuff of dreams and legends. At that particular moment, when the flames of war had reached the pinnacle, the Saintdragon Emperor couldn’t stop the bloody legions, but the decapath era godswords could. With shivers down their spines, those in front stared at the enormous swords while those in the back slammed into them, their totems colliding into one another and causing chaos.
“Ten totems?!” they all gasped. The sun emperor’s nine totems had already caused a shock. Some totems could confuse the mind. For example, Tianming’s Myriadsword Providence could unleash tens of thousands of swords, but it wasn’t considered ten thousand totems. Thus, visually estimating the number of totems might prove inaccurate; the number of bane-rings was still key. Their gazes followed the totems down to their master. Power surged from five bright spots on each of his arms, flooding the totems. The battle came to a complete standstill as millions of cultivators crashed into a messy heap. It was obvious what a sensation this was.
“He has ten bane-rings. He’s a decabane!”
“Oh my God! Decabanes actually exist?!”
“Who is he?!”
It was impossible to get a clear glimpse of the totems amidst the flames. However, the flames were soon swept away and a young man with a clean look appeared before their eyes. White hair, black and gold eyes, black arm… his features were obvious. Everyone on the sun knew him. When his appearance was revealed, at least three million people shouted his name at the same time.
“Li Tianming!!”
The noise was so ear-piercing it enveloped the entire battlefield, wiping out the celestial orderians’ momentum. Power exploded and waned once more. Like sharp knives, a deafening screech swept across the battlefield, ripping apart flesh. Some were shocked, some were excited, some were afraid, some were worried, and others were in tears. Tianming, who had caused the celestial orderians’ great defeat in the Myriaddragon Mountains and the very same man who was able to escape under the eyes of the sun emperor, shouldn’t have caused such a sensation when he returned. But now, the entire battlefield was shaken because of the decapath era godswords.
“Li Tianming, a decabane!”
The transformation of beastmaster into decabane totemancer was utterly shocking to both the celestial orderians and Azurecloud warriors. Many wondered if it was a dream before death, including Long Wanying. Tianming had appeared in front of her, his back turned to her like a towering mountain in the face of her enemies. Although his shoulders weren’t broad, they contained the power of a savior. Ten godswords, each of them different, but all of them so outstanding they almost seemed to go against the natural order. Bursting with sword ki, they instantly dominated the battlefield.
Countless others felt the same as Long Wanying. Their eyes were red and their breathing heavy as tears welled up in their eyes. The emotions in their chests seemed to surge up into their throats. Was this reality or fantasy? Although Long Wanying knew Tianming was a totemancer, she didn’t know he possessed ten bane-rings. More importantly, she hadn’t thought he would be back so soon. Because they thought they were dreaming, many people held back their emotions till the moment the young man raised the sword in his hand along with the decapath era godswords and pointed at the celestial orderians. Turning around, he stared at Azuresoul Sword Mountain. In those black and gold eyes was endless rage, killing intent, and a deep love for this land. There were so many here who had once fought beside him. His gaze was truly piercing.
His gaze met every Azurecloud warrior’s. Under that gaze, the hearts of the Azurecloud warriors, as well as the cultivators of Azurecloud on Azuresoul Sword Mountain, were set ablaze. The fury within their blood surged once more.
Ten bane-rings! His talent could excite the entire universe. From beginning to end, Tianming didn’t say a word. With just one look, he revived the dying beast that was Azurecloud, igniting its rage so it stood back up and regained its conviction. As their gazes scorched his back, Tianming pointed his sword at the sun emperor’s fifth son, Li Xuanyang, and uttered one word.
“KILL!!”
Marked by his hoarse voice and ugly grimace, the word contained all of Tianming’s rage, the courage of the entire continent, and their will to survive. They had been missing a linchpin that could unite them into a power so strong it could shake the heavens. And at that moment, the world had undergone drastic changes. No one could ever have expected such a miracle to happen. With just one look and one word, the battered army forgot death, burning themselves like candles in a bonfire. They all stared at the decabane totemancer, taking him as a beacon that would change their fate. Smoldering with rage, they followed in his footsteps.
A terrifying sword wave erupted from the Azuresky Myriadsword Formation. Tianming had returned like a savior to lead these cultivators alongside his ten godswords. At the same time, he poured all of his strength into the formation spirit threads, forcing it to reach its limit.
Amidst the deafening explosion, Azurecloud warriors and their lifebound beasts gathered behind him. Long Wanying, Gujian Qingshuang, Yun Tianque, and others appeared by his side. This war was destined to be a team effort. The greatest significance of Tianming’s presence was to inspire people, not for one man to fight a million; that was something only the sun emperor could accomplish. Their spirits soared as they faced death with equanimity. With Tianming in the lead, no one would take a step back.
His piercing cry turned into an earth-shattering wave that shocked the celestial orderians.
