Chapter 2538 - Lightless Universe
It took around two hours after Fengqing Yin got on their piece of Skyhold Bridge to meet Tianming. The cultivators all across countless worlds had waited with bated breath to witness the elite face off in the most prestigious arena in the wondersky realm.
"Fengqing Yin, Xu, and Fu Yan are probably the strongest fighters around two hundred years old in the entire Skydome Mundus..."
"I'm even more convinced now that Li Tianming's actual age is around five hundred. There's no way he would be able to keep up with Fengqing Yin otherwise."
"We should just multiply their displayed age in the wondersky realm by ten."
"How could the recording process be mistaken?"
Discussions about their ages never stopped. Perhaps the only people who actually believed Tianming's age were his supporters from the Mysterium Cluster. Had it not been for Tianming, none of the denizens of the cluster would even be aware of a place like Skyhold Bridge inside the wondersky realm.
No clash in the past thousand years had garnered as much attention as this one. Almost everyone fought tooth and nail for their opinions, as if they were the ones who were participating in the duel themselves. They only shut up and paid attention once the battle between the seven geniuses truly began.
Fengqing Yin had chosen a suitable arena for Fu Yan's rearearth mother goddesses, so it came as quite a surprise when she was the one to attack instead of Xu! Her expression was completely cold as her rage soared. She channeled her totem ki through her bane-rings and unleashed them along with her eighth astral phase hexagonal forbidden zone. The manifestation of her nine totems caused a huge rumble!
"I was a little careless the last time and became your stepping stone to getting into Skyhold Bridge. This time around, I'll use you as a stepping stone to regain the dignity and honor of the hallowed shamaness." Powerful sandstorms complete with rock and boulders surrounded Fu Yan. The half-snake rearearth mother goddesses towered over the land, eyes glowing a twilight-yellow, illuminating Tianming and the rest. Fu Yan grit her teeth and let her power burst forth. "Tertiary simulacrum, Dynastic Soil!"
Tianming didn't think that trampling on her pride would create such a drastic outcome. She had started the fight straight away with her tertiary simulacrum! Though, while Tianming was quite startled by its might the last time, this time would be different. The tertiary simulacrum allowed the totems to blend together with Fu Yan and disappear into the ground. Then, a prison of earth formed around Tianming and the rest, limiting their combat capabilities. The prison looked like a spherical star made of earth and stone.
Next came the storm of earth! From Tianming's point of view, the dirt and soil all around him seemed to turn heavier and pile up around them, forming the borders of a majestic dynasty that was ruled by the primordial goddesses of the earth. The ones that manifested from the ground weren't that large, but there were tens of millions of them.
"Within the domain of my totems, you can do naught but submit." Fu Yan had nobody but Tianming in her sights, wanting nothing more than to even up the score. If she could defeat him without Fengqing Yin's help, it would be even better for her reputation.
Little did she know that she wouldn't be fighting Tianming at all. Feiling, who had reached parity in terms of cultivation level with Fu Yan, stopped her tertiary simulacrum from interfering with Tianming completely. Among the three of them, Feiling had made the most progress in the past three years, which was insane even by Tianming's standards.
"Ling'er is now at the eighth astral phase. Her space and time orders both developed their respective hexagonal forbidden zones, which fit perfectly into Perpetia to form a large domain in which she dictated the flow of spacetime! The level of control she has over them is even higher than before!" That kind of power was completely different from beast abilities or battle arts.
Right as the tens of millions of smaller rearearth mother goddesses charged towards Tianming, Feiling descended like a goddess before him, her flowing Cerulean Starocean outfit covered in precious gems that glowed bright blue in tandem with the surging of her cosmoforce. The brilliance of the sight was accentuated only by the ten-odd pairs of primalwings she used in tandem. Once more, the whole Skydome Mundus marveled at her magnificent beauty, which did not overshadow her strength. The shade of blue in her eyes that arose when she manipulated Perpetia added an air of nobility and pride to her countenance, shaking anyone who looked deeply into them.
Her hexagonal forbidden zones were far more terrifying than Guiben Rongyao and his five beasts' combined. Within an instant, Perpetia locked down Fu Yan's Dynastic Soil. Feiling flew to the center of the city and opened her arms wide, sending every corner of the city into a field of chaotic spacetime that formed countless dragon-like streams, cutting through everything Fu Yan manifested and eroding them without discrimination! Feiling called the combination of Perpetia and her hexagonal forbidden zones 'Lightless Universe'. The universe was made of the fabric of space and time, and when the fabrics were disturbed, even the prison formed by Dynastic Soil gave way and crumbled.
The deconstruction of Fu Yan's tertiary simulacrum came as a huge mental blow. She had been really confident about her abilities judging from her smirk, but the turn of events left a wound so deep that it felt burned into her soul. "Impossible!"
The confidence she had in her eighth astral phase cultivation fell to pieces. She didn't think that she would fall so easily before she even reached Tianming, having thought Feiling to be nothing more than a pretty ornament. Yet, the dainty ornament was the one who had smashed her to smithereens!
