Beastmaster of the Ages

"His order after using heaven-unity resonance has no effect on me, but my Primordial Chaos Beasts\' orders will definitely be effective on him!" Tianming had turned a double disadvantage into a plus and a minus, so he still had a chance. He mustered all six streams of his orders, circulating them in his body like the six paths of reincarnation. Even though he still didn\'t have a proper order field, what he did have would be more than sufficient against Lin Yixuan alone.

"Huh?" Lin Yixuan had wanted to finish the fight in a single strike, completely crushing Tianming. His opponent’s lifebound beasts hadn\'t even launched their attacks before he had unleashed his first sword art, stirring up countless revenants to fight for him. Yet Tianming actually didn\'t seem suppressed by his order at all, and managed to counterattack as if he wasn\'t held back in the slightest! When his six streams of order targeted Lin Yixuan, the astrons in his heptastar cosmic physique suffered damage from all six types of order to the point that the elemental effects were visible on his skin!

"A first-astral orderan with six streams of order?!" Lin Yixuan furrowed his brow at being counter-suppressed; it was scarcely believable.

Many of the spectators noticed that Lin Yixuan was being greatly affected by something. As far as order was concerned, he was losing. The torturous pain he was experiencing wouldn’t dissipate until Tianming was defeated.

"That can\'t be! He has heaven-unity resonance! How could his order be pushed back?"

"Isn\'t his galactic mist completely surrounding Lin Feng?"

"Yeah! There should be nothing he can do about it!"

"Impossible! Lin Yixuan\'s order is really terrifying, especially against astrons! Even gigantic lifebound beasts wouldn\'t be able to absorb it like it\'s nothing!"

The seventy thousand astral gods simply couldn’t understand what was going on. All of them thought that the result of the duel had been set in stone from the start.

"I guess it\'s up to my lifebound beasts." Lin Yixuan had all his lifebound beasts step forward. All six of them had the same type of order. They also had heaven-unity resonance, which tripled the power of their orders. Even more mist began brewing around Tianming like a storm of death.

"Impressive." Tianming could clearly feel the edge his opponent had over him now. Lin Yixuan had six-six talent, or in other words, six lifebound beasts of different species. Most of the strongest people in the tenth branch had death-type lifebound beasts that could easily control deathly energy, and Lin Yixuan was the finest representative among them. All six of his lifebound beasts were also of the classic kinds. There was an avian, a beast, a fish, a bug, a plant, and a rock lifeform, all of the death type.

The beast was a gigantic gray wolf with shiny fur. Despite its seemingly normal appearance, it could perfectly blend in within the galactic mist order. It disappeared from Tianming\'s vision within an instant, being an expert at stealth. The avian-type beast was a featherless vulture with a sword-like beak. Gray mist flowed all over its body from top to bottom, and its savagery was clearly visible from its many talons.

While Tianming didn\'t know what those two lifebound beasts were, he had read something about the other four: a galactic eel, yellowspring spider, redfiend helltree, and a foreign rockbeast. The eel looked rather snake-like as it swam within the mist, so fast that the eye could barely see it. The yellowspring spider seemed covered in water from the springs of the afterlife. The liquid seemed clearly venomous. The foreign rockbeast, on the other hand, seemed like a normal boulder. Its destructive capabilities were currently unknown. The most terrifying one of them, however, had to be the redfiend helltree, which took root in the Bladebath Palace. It was entirely crimson red like lava. Many vines hung low from its branches, all of them shaped like bloodthirsty banshees, swaying in the wind.

Such an assortment of lifebound beasts was a sign of incredible talent in the Lin Clan. However, their star count couldn\'t rival Ying Huo and the others\'. They had only managed to assimilate nine-aperture ordered manna, giving them around ninety thousand stars, which didn\'t even reach a third of what Tianming\'s lifebound beasts had. Then again, those star counts were already rather impressive for a seventh-astral oderian, putting him at the top of his peers on Gladeus. He would be considered among the first class in Ebonia, as well.

Tianming had only managed to obtain even better ordered manna that was worth more than three million phantasilver because he’d won first place in the ranking event. Even with their lower star counts, Lin Yixuan’s beasts were still powerful for a seventh-astral orderan.

"Lin Yixuan, beat him up!"

The crowd cheered when the lifebound beasts showed up. Right as their hype reached a peak, Tianming\'s lifebound beasts, divine wonders, and Grand-Orient Sword were deployed at the same time. The nine Prime Cosmic Rings revolved in the air while five lifebound beasts assembled behind him. As for the last, Ji Ji, it had split into five while it was still in the lifebound space and used Spiritual Attachment to boost the fighting strength of the other beasts.

"Three hundred thousand stars!" Similar cheers echoed throughout the audience.

"Where’d he get so much money? Are top geniuses allowed to spend the money of their clans with abandon?"

"Not so. That\'s probably thanks to his prize reward for taking first place in the minor reges mundi ranking event. The Lin Clan hasn\'t had anyone reach the top three for a long time."

"Wait... how could his lifebound beasts even assimilate all that?"

As the crowd chattered on, Tianming clashed with the enemy lifebound beasts.

"Wow, look at those bugs!" Yin Chen, despite not having reached its full potential after its stunning transformation, was far more adept at combat using its galactic swordbug form. The sword-shaped bugs formed a galactic stream, interweaving with one another before disappearing without a trace! However, that didn\'t mean they weren\'t there. They posed a constant threat, even while hidden!

"Come!" Tianming\'s fighting spirit soared. Both sides had an advantage. While Lin Yixuan had more energy, Tianming had more powerful orders! While the enemy beasts had more energy, his lifebound beasts had more unique bloodlines, higher star counts, and many tricks up their sleeves!
