Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2755 – The New Shrine

“Yeah?” The male infant also thought back. Tianming’s speed of advancement had him deeply worried about the ability of wonderians of the fifth cosmic chart to capture him.

“If we can get Li Fan to take action, it’ll be simple. The people from Myriadpath Valley have more influence in the Antiquitas Mortis than us wonderians,” the male infant said.

“Then let’s summon Fengqing Youmeng!” the female infant said.

……

“The wonderians have appeared in the capital?” Feiling heard that and deep worry appeared in her eyes.

“Yes, I’ve stirred up a hornet’s nest. If nothing unexpected happens, Meng Ying must’ve mobilized a large number of people to come in to catch me. Things will be even harder in the future.” Tianming shook his head.

“He has a beautiful woman protecting him!” Xian Xian jumped out, shouting.

Tianming quickly held it down and said, “Important matters first, let’s go back to dual cultivation—ah, no, practice!”

This trip, he had obtained seven order fragments! Regardless of how one looked at it, it was a huge gain. Back at the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, he didn’t say a word and started absorbing them.

“Six orders, seven order fragments. How much can they enhance them?” The higher his level, the more complexity was required from the order fragments. Tianming was mentally prepared for there to be poor effectiveness.

Such low-grade order fragments were precious, but cosmic cartographers couldn’t use them! They were normally used on a large scale by the offspring of strong individuals.

Tianming was already familiar with refining order fragments. Thus, it didn’t take long before all six orders in his body had significantly grown, each of them undergoing a qualitative transformation.

“The eighth astral-phase, hexagonal forbidden zone!” He had been looking forward to that realm for a long time. His orders would form a hexagonal forbidden zone with greatly enhanced suppression ability. “I have the Order Relic, so the suppression by others’ orders is useless against me. But as my orders become stronger, I can still suppress my opponents!” He had a total of six orders, all of them terrifying.

He tested out his hexagonal forbidden zone, and stacked together, it was almost comparable to the order suppression power of a cosmic cartographer. “This’ll cause a great surge in my combat power.” His fighting spirit surged.

However, he also realized something. “The efficacy of order fragments is indeed getting weaker. If I rely on breaking through with order fragments, I’ll need over a dozen, or even twenty or more. Either that, or I need to obtain higher-quality order fragments!” Whether it was an increase in quantity or quality, those who possessed order fragments would be even stronger. Even in the Ninth District, Tianming was just a peripheral figure.

“The challenges are growing harder. Now there’s the added threat of the divine wonderians, so progressing in strength is urgent….” Tianming knew that his biggest problem was still the time he had left in the capital. “Half a month left!

“Next, the multiorder symphony of the ninth astral phase is a hurdle. The acquisition of order fragments is extremely important!” He also planned to let Ying Huo and the rest evolve; he had already prepared the manna and was carrying it all with him.

……

Back in the Xenoabyss, Zi Zhen was still waiting for him. “Aren’t you afraid that the growth of your orders will be stunted like this?” Zi Zhen asked with concern.

“No problem, my orders are different from ordinary people. When I reach cosmic cartography in the future, you’ll be able to see the difference.” Tianming smiled.

“Oh, okay.” She no longer pressed on that question, but asked, “What’s next?” It was clear that after solving half of the curse vortexes, she was already eager to recover from the rest.

“Order fragments are still crucial. If you don’t have a good target, I’ll find one myself.” Upon his return, the dormant Yin Chens began moving again, dispersing through the Ninth District. As the Yin Chens scattered, its efficiency would increase, and news of order fragments would soon come in one after another.

“So we just have to wait now?” Zi Zhen asked.

“Yes.” Tianming nodded, then continued, “But now I have a problem.”

“What?”

“I entered the capital with a recommendation token and there’s only half a month left.” He scratched his head.

“Ah?” Zi Zhen was dumbfounded and said, “Half a month isn’t enough for you to leave the city. Once the time’s up, you can only run back to the astralscape of order. Moreover, you can’t come in again. Otherwise you’ll be wanted by the Antiquitas Mortis.”

“I know, so the most urgent thing now is to find a way to stay. Do you have any ideas?” Tianming asked. He knew that Zi Zhen was born in the capital, so she had the qualification to stay there and her name was on the record.

“To get permanent residency in the capital, there’s only one way, and that’s to register at the New Shrine. The New Shrine is an institution in the capital that plans the blackout periods. There’s a New Shrine in the Ninth District,” Zi Zhen said.

“What’re the conditions for registering at the New Shrine?” Tianming asked.

“It seems that the basic condition is to pay fifty million soulstones in one go. In addition, I heard that just having soulstones isn’t enough. You also need some internal connections. Now, there’s a lot of people in the capital and the New Shrine is under a lot of pressure, so a blackout period was called to clear the population,” Zi Zhen said.

“Fifty million? Why not just rob people instead?” Tianming was shocked. Staying permanently was so expensive!

“It can’t be helped, this is the territory of the antiquiteans.” Zi Zhen shook her head.

“I’ll need internal connections, too?” To be honest, as an outsider, that was the difficult thing.

“Yeah.”

“So, I have to go and make connections with the people from the New Shrine first.” At the moment, Tianming still didn’t have news about order fragments, so he decided to go to the New Shrine first. “Do you know where the New Shrine is?”

“I know, but it’s a key location during the blackout period. There may be many powerhouses, and the danger is quite high…” Zi Zhen said with slight worry.

“No choice, I’ve only got half a month left. How long will it take to get there?” Tianming asked.

“More than ten days.”

“Dammit.” Tianming was getting a headache. In other words, if he didn’t go now, he wouldn’t have time.

“And that’s at my speed….” At the moment, her speed was truly faster than Meow Meow’s. In other words, if he let Meow Meow go, not only would he be conspicuous, but he might not even reach the New Shrine in the Ninth District in half a month.

“So, you’re coming?” Tianming awkwardly said.

“Yeah, yeah. I’ll carry you.” Zi Zhen turned around, squatted down, and innocently turned her head to Tianming, “Get on.”
