Chapter 2949 - Suicide Mission

With regret, they discovered that Tianming's lifebound beasts had swallowed the five ordered manna without hesitation. Lifebound beasts with just nine hundred thousand stars dared to swallow nine million nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand stars? They were simply seeking death and wasting resources! It was like they were eating candy. The ordered manna soon reached their bellies.

"Hold on!" Ying Huo muttered to itself. It didn't want to anger Demoness Yin for fear she would kill Tianming. Even if they could successfully evolve, it would be meaningless if that happened.

The Primordial Chaos Beasts immediately returned to Tianming's lifebound space. Thus, no one could force them out unless Tianming perished. The space around Tianming was empty at once.

Demoness Yin and Mister Taihe were dumbfounded.

"That’s at least nine hundred apertures!"

They looked at each other, their voices trembling as they spoke. Right now, they didn’t care how Tianming had obtained so many high-level ordered manna. That was the kind of treasure they would fight over in Myriadpath Valley. Excitement filled their eyes.

"His lifebound beasts swallowed all five! What a waste!" Demoness Yin was so furious her face turned red. She regretted not taking away Tianming’s spatial ring. After all, he was already under her control and Mister Taihe wouldn’t have noticed them so she could have gained at least five top-grade ordered manna. Most importantly, the manna were gone once they had been swallowed by his lifebound beasts. It didn’t matter if they were killed or failed to evolve; there was no getting them back. They’d been lost the moment they had entered their bellies. She was filled with regret.

On the other hand, Mister Taihe wasn’t too upset. Although he rushed to Tianming, Demoness Yin had regained her senses and used the Bloodweaver to grab Tianming’s spatial ring. The ring fell into her hands.

"Yi Mo!" Mister Taihe roared.

"Calm down. Let me take a look.... We’ll divide them equally!" Demoness Yin said.

Mister Taihe stopped in his tracks,

Demoness Yin felt slightly better after inspecting Tianming’s spatial ring.

"He has four more! Two for each of us!" Although she was excited, the thought of the wasted manna still made her heart ache.

It was a loss no miser could ever forget. One momentary slip and they were gone forever. The ordered manna were so striking that Demoness Yin paid little attention to the other things in Tianming’s spatial ring, like the chaos worldbangle.

"Let me take a look!" Mister Taihe walked up to her. He didn't care about the other items, either. Upon confirming that there were indeed four ordered manna, he said, "I want these two!"

"Okay!" Demoness Yin didn't need manna for herself. She was going to sell them, so it didn’t matter which ones she took. After all, their properties were equally good. The two decisively divided the manna while Tianming coldly watched as they took away everything he had.

Almost everything he owned was in his spatial ring. After losing it, the only thing he had left was the Grand-Orient Sword in his hand which was bound by the Bloodweaver. Neither Tianming nor his sword could move.

Mister Taihe turned to Tianming with a strange look in his eyes and said, "How interesting. He has so many treasures on him. It's a pity he’s caught your attention."

"Yes!" Demoness Yin pointed at the Sky Palace Formation, where a two-headed dragon was advancing toward them.

"I’ll leave them to you."

"Don’t worry!" There was contempt in his eyes as killing intention surged in him. The Gladean Ruins unleashed an attack that decimated an enormous area, but it couldn't hurt anyone. Xiaodao was well aware of that. As soon as the astralship landed, the gates opened wide and more than seven hundred thousand astral gods emerged, swordbeasts entering their swords. Their gazes fiery and hearts resolute, the astral gods let out a roar that shook the heavens and earth, charging toward the four foundationeers like moths to a flame. Xiaodao had returned to the Sky Palace Formation and brought all the astral gods there at the Gladean Ruins’ fastest speed.

Thunderous booms—a cacophony of battle sounds from astral gods, lifebound beasts and their abilities—reverberated in the air. Unfortunately, Mister Taihe and Demoness Yin were too powerful and it’d taken them less time to capture Tianming than it had for the Gladean Ruins to get there. Otherwise, Tianming might have been able to escape. All they could do now was try their best to rescue him.

One sweeping glance was all it took for Tianming to catch the familiar faces in the crowd—Xiaodao, his grandfather and grandmother, Lin Xiong, Lin Changkong, Lin Chongyao, and even Lin Chongjing. They were also joined by the experts from Gladeus and the Grandnorth Dongshen Clan, who had all become part of the Tianming Dynasty after moving to the Sun. They had endured for too long!

Tianming had slaughtered so many Intrepidean experts on his own. Now that he was in danger, these astral gods could no longer put up with it. Bursting with passion, they fearlessly rushed to his rescue.

There were over two million wonderian astral gods outside the Sky Palace Formation who had dispersed due to the fear of being wiped out by astralships. They began moving in this direction as soon as the Gladean Ruins left the formation with all the astral gods on the Sun. Sooner or later, they would be surrounded and unable to escape, proving what a suicide mission it was.

Even so, no one retreated. The moment they had decided to leave the Sky Palace Formation, they were ready to put their lives on the line. Bent on saving their grandson, Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue moved even faster than Xiaodao and were the first ones to reach the two Intrepidean foundationeers.

In fact, the Sun had lost two of their main combat forces, Wudi and Moran. As long as he was away from the Flameyellow Guard Formation, Wudi wouldn’t be able to give full rein to the Thousand Foundation Divine Puppet’s abilities. Even on the surface of the Sun, his combat power was very limited. Because Ji Ji’s spiritform had fallen asleep, it was just a ball of genesis ancestral nova source without any consciousness and couldn’t help Moran power the eightpart apparition and ephemeral world wonders.

Seven hundred thousand astral gods were led by Xiaodao, the only foundationeer. They were bound to die.
