Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2746 - You Go First, I\'ll Guard the Rear

"Are there many of these freezing pools in the Ninth District?" he casually asked.

"Of course there’s a lot, Some are large, some small... there’s at least tens of thousands of them. Basically, they’ve all been occupied by people." Zi Zhen nodded. Just by removing two xeno fatigue vortices, her complexion had improved a lot and her skin had a glossy appearance.

"Is this freezing pool the exclusive territory of the three brothers?" Tianming was still on the sea’s surface, looking around. The sea seemed endless, and even Lan Huang could swim around forever in it.

"Yes," Zi Zhen said.

After the awkward incident earlier, she’d adjusted her mood a bit and returned to the cold temperament she’d had at the beginning.

"It\'s huge! Of course, it isn’t as big as my Sun." Tianming originally wanted to let the Lan Huang, who was itchy, out to play and help them move faster, but after thinking about it, he thought it was better not to.

"The capital of Antiquitas Mortis has many powerful beings. Unless absolutely necessary, it\'s better for them to not participate in battles." That was because the Xenoabyss had its uniqueness. If Tianming was pulled back and they hadn\'t returned to his lifebound space, it would all be over.

I\'m in the seventh astral phase now, only two levels away from the ninth. I can then let them evolve to over nine hundred thousand stars. Even the Archaionfiend recently underwent a major transformation, so they should become even more powerful. There would be more than enough time then to let run wild in the Xenoabyss!

Regardless of how his totems and wonders transformed, lifebound beasts were still his strongest reliance.

In that way, Tianming and Zi Zhen silently infiltrated the dark lake.

"Do you know the location of their lair?" Tianming asked.

"I\'ve been to their shop before," Zi Zhen said.

"That\'s settled then."

In the competition for order fragments, Tianming put away his playful mood and entered a focused state. He sent two tugs on the interdimensional line to inform Feiling that he would soon enter combat, so she would focus more on her end.

"Well, someone’s already fighting!" Tianming said. Yin Chen had transformed into silver jellyfish and had already infiltrated the deep sea.

The two quietly approached.

This underground freezing pool should have been calm, but as they went a bit deeper, they found that the waves at the bottom were violently churning. The closer they got, the more they heard the roaring sounds of divine abilities and melee combat.

Deep inside, the waves were turbulent.

"Don\'t stray too far away from me!" Tianming reminded Zi Zhen.

"It\'s okay, I can protect myself," Zi Zhen absentmindedly said.

"What’re you thinking? I asked you to protect me. You\'re a thug, who allowed you to protect yourself?" Tianming said.

"Oh!" Zi Zhen awkwardly nodded.

The activity underwater was massive, but Tianming was determined to obtain order fragments. With only twenty days left, he wanted to stay in the capital and needed more strength. Therefore, he needed to seize every moment.

He followed Zi Zhen.

Zi Zhen was very agile. In the water, she was like a flexible purple snake. It was only now that Tianming saw that her figure was indeed charming and graceful, worthy of being a specter with a powerful body.

The two, one in front and one behind, crossed the violent waves and arrived at the center of the battle.

Tianming saw it! A group of specters, several hundred meters tall, were using divine abilities, their bodies, and cosmoforce to fight. They fiercely fought, blood flying everywhere, divine power evaporating the water and forming dazzling shockwaves that shattered many underwater mountains and caves.

"The antiquiteans?" At a glance, Tianming discovered that among the combatants, one side was the antiquiteans. They were like human-shark hybrids with scorpion tails, and the tails even had snake heads on them. The snake heads were responsible for releasing divine abilities and coordinating with the body to fight, making them quite fierce in battle. Moreover, there were many of them there, a total of eight.

Their opponents should be the three brothers of the hellish flood-dragon race.

Compared to the eight antiquiteans, they were more burly. Each one was covered in heavy scales that shone with starlight and were impervious to weapons. Their heads were even similar to Lan Huang’s dragon heads, but they looked much more ferocious, as well as ugly and dirty. Including the dragon horns, which had no aesthetic appeal, only sharpness.

Zi Zhen had told Tianming about them before; these three brothers were Black Dragon, Blood Dragon, and Green Dragon. Among them, Black Dragon was the eldest and the strongest. He could easily distinguish them by the color of their scales.

Black Dragon was tall, reaching a full thousand meters. He was twice the size of the shortest on the antiquitean side. Four sturdy arms grew from his ribcage, and the claws on his arms were like giant knives. The cosmoforce in his body surged, shining bright.

By the time Tianming arrived, the battle had already reached its final stage. Although the antiquiteans were numerous, they were being besieged by the three brothers.

"Black Dragon, you actually broke through to the third cosmos chart!" The strongest of the eight antiquiteans, who had two cosmic charts behind him, widened his eyes, his face pale.

"Why not? Why else would I deliberately spread the news of the order fragments, luring you greedy guys to come? Usually, we address each other as brothers, but as soon as the blackout period arrived, you brought so many people to kill and rob us. I won’t be able to forgive myself if I don\'t kill you!" Black Dragon laughed and exchanged a glance with his two brothers.

"Don\'t hold back! Kill!"

In the Xenoabyss, without formations or astralships, there was no place like home to store treasures. That said, any static place could easily be wiped out, so almost everyone was used to carrying their treasures and resources with them.

Black Dragon was interested in the wealth of these antiquiteans as well. With the regulations of the blackout period, their slaughter was legal.

"Kill!"

Black Dragon focused on the leader of the antiquiteans, fighting with all his might and hunting only one person. After breaking through, he had a huge advantage in battle. The joint forces of the three cosmic charts were close to the formidable Lin Lingxiao.

Tear!

"Black Dragon, you won’t die a good death! The Antiquitas Mortis is the territory of us antiquiteans!"

"Don\'t give me this nonsense. There’s plenty of antiquiteans. They don\'t need someone like you." Black Dragon heartily laughed and clamped down on the opponent with all four arms, directly decapitating him with a bite, instantly destroying his head and vita.

Of course, that wouldn\'t kill an astral god. Black Dragon just tore apart his body first, making him lose his ability to resist before targeting the two cosmic charts.
