Chapter 2932 – Coming Out to Surrender?
Demoness Yin had killed Weisheng Xu in an instant. Tianming didn’t have a notion of how strong the rex mundi of Intrepidus truly was, making him rather worried for his godfather and master. Demoness Yin no doubt specialized in killing her opponents, so her strikes were fatal and no joke! Yet, despite all that, Tianming had still been latched onto by Ba Xiao, and was unable to help or return to the Sky Palace Formation.
“If Mister Taihe stops setting up the Starshatter Formation and directly comes for me, I’ll be dead for sure!” Considering that, Tianming had no choice but to go out and fight the godshade foundationeer himself.
Behind him were Feiling, Xiaoxiao, and Moran. He turned to look at them and they all nodded at him, their eyes filled with resolve. They wouldn’t regret fighting to the death beside him. Moran was sure to be a huge help, while Feiling’s Perpetia City could tip the scales as well. Feiling and Xiaoxiao had been growing so fast, but even then, Tianming had recently caught up to, and even surpassed them. His growth rate was truly insane.
“Wait for me!” he said. With Moran’s divine wonders protecting him, he exited the ship.
The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb came to a sudden stop. The braking maneuver alone caused flames to flare up around them, and Ba Xiao was quite shaken from the sudden change in inertia. Many divine celestial patterns were manifesting on his bald scalp.
“Stupid child, are you messing around with Grandpa here? Once my Big Sis drags you out from there, Grandpa here will rearrange your insides! I heard your whole household of beauties are here with you on this ship. My Big Sis no doubt sees them as eyesores. Once you’ve been dealt with, I’ll take them as my wives. They’ll become your step-grandmothers,” Ba Xiao said with a voice that rivaled Lan Huang’s. People hundreds of kilometers away could hear him as clearly as they could a thunderclap. As expected of a foundationeer.
Ba Xiao had thought that Tianming had pulled a sudden stop to shake him off, but when he finished his mockery, he saw one of the nine heads of the ship spit out a white-haired youth! The youth, bathed in flames, cast an imperial gaze on the godshade with his black and gold eyes. There was a unique aura about him that let him perfectly blend together with the world of the Sun. He had become an embodiment of the Sun itself.
“To think that a foundationeer from Intrepidus would act like a low-class crook with his words….” Tianming smirked. He wielded the fully released Grand-Orient Sword in hand and was surrounded with all nine of its cosmic impulses. The sword wildly clashed with the ubiquitous flames, creating quite a few wild storms around it.
Ba Xiao’s mouth was agape for a long moment, then his expression of rage turned into one of pure joy. With absolute disbelief, he said, “You…. Did you come out to surrender?”
Surrender? Tianming knew that that fellow couldn’t believe it would be anything else. Why would a first-level cosmic cartographer brat come out to fight a foundationeer like him? Putting aside Demoness Yin, Ba Xiao himself was a figure that stood above countless trillions of others in Intrepidus! Others address him as the Blitz Rex Mundi. He ruled an infinitum-class world in his own right that was even larger than Ebonia! Not even in their primes would Meng Ying and Shenxi Xingtian dare to fight him, so why would a kid dare?
What was even more ridiculous was how Tianming didn’t just dare to challenge him, but simply charged straight at him through the flaming waves of the Flameyellow Guard Formation that he conjured!
“How laughable!” Ba Xiao had found it unforgivable that a brat had dared to consider him the weak link of the chain that was Intrepidus. It was a pure insult to his power and status! “If I, your grandpa, don’t teach you a lesson here today, I’ll let you use my skull as a chamberpot!”
Ba Xiao maniacally laughed as dense, thunderous patterns covered his body. Then lightning exploded out of him and pushed back against the flames of the astralguard formation, creating a miniature world of lightning.
Ba Xiao immediately got a good look at Tianming’s terrifying arsenal, the very same that the elites of Intrepidus had come to this world for in the first place. That sword! And his totems and divine wonders! He also has lifebound beasts, what a monster! Not even Myriadpath Valley has someone like that. His powers must’ve been enhanced through some method! But even without that enhancement, his achievements still put him at the top of the astralscape of order!
Ba Xiao truly acknowledged Tianming for the terrifying genius that he was. However, he refused to believe that a young genius could overpower a being of his caliber despite being so far outclassed, so he welcomed it all with a sinister smile.
Tianming’s expression radiated nothing but unassailable rulership and the resolve to fight to the death with his subjects. He was resonating with the many trillions of them at the same time!
“People of the Sun, grant me power! As your ruler, I’ll fight to the death for your lives, your dignity, and to change your destinies!” The moment he proclaimed his will through the Omnisentient Threads, it reached the hearts of everyone that he was connected to. They could all feel the proud desire of their ruler. The subjects within the Sky Palace Formation had found a path of salvation in him and began sending the power of their faith into his body.
At that moment, the Sun, its denizens, and Tianming had fused into one singular being. Ba Xiao seemed to witness an illusion, seeing not a foolish junior before him, but rather the soul of this vast world itself standing against him.
The decapath era godswords shot out and whooshed through the clouds before plummeting down and entering Tianming’s sword as a onefold simulacrum. Then the nine cosmic impulses fused together with totem ki that had been enhanced multiple times by resonating with omnisentient power, allowing the cosmic impulses to be utilized to their full potential.
The Grand-Orient Sword had reached an unreasonable level of power, far beyond that of Xiaodao’s swordbeast-infused Primordial Demonshade—and that was just one part of Tianming’s might! At the same time, the nine-hundred-plus words from the grand lexicon wonder worked in concert with him, using their obscure rules to enhance his regal and dominant aura.
