Chapter 3184 - Fifteen

"Sovereign!" After the last shout, the omnisentient idol around Tianming began dissipating. He had succeeded in overcoming it!

"How much time did that take?" He desperately wanted to know, and so did Suishen Zhao.

Suishen Zhao had been stupefied by the time it’d taken for Tianming to clear the vitality idol. This time around, he couldn't even react. The omnisentient idol was supposed to be much more difficult than the vitality idol and the record time for clearing it on the Fortuna Path was fifteen minutes, which was far longer than a hundred breaths' time.

As such, when Suishen Zhao emerged from the omnisentient idol, he was completely frozen. Tianming had seen the Midsky Myriadpath Stele and stood there, motionless, with his mouth agape.

Suishen Zhao had predicted that Tianming would do well in a test of talent like this, but the result was simply incomprehensible. It didn't just break the records of Myriadpath Valley, it shattered Suishen Zhao's entire worldview—and he was someone born among the elites of the astralscape!

"We're in first place again!"

All of Myriadpath Valley was silent. Tianming turned back and saw that his and Suishen Zhao's names were at the top of the Fortuna Path. It wasn't surprising, as they were the only ones who had cleared the third round so far, so they automatically got placed higher than the rest.

"We'll only truly be in first place if we stay there after everyone else finishes." Whether or not that was possible depended on how long it took for the others to clear the third round.

Tianming factored in the elapsed time between the third and second rounds. "If we subtract those two, we get fifteen...."

His eyes brightened. It had taken him fifteen breaths' time to clear the omnisentient idol, half of what it’d taken to clear the vitality idol! "Wasn't the previous record fifteen minutes?"

It was a staggering difference, and he had a feeling that Myriadpath Valley would explode once more. For now, everyone was silent and stumped with disbelief, Suishen Zhao included. Millions of people turned from looking at the stele to Tianming. He immediately felt pressure! Even with his Order Relic Universal Body that could absorb all order pressure, he still felt a lot of mental pressure from being looked at by so many elite cultivators at once.

"Fifteen breaths! That's the omnisentient idol!"

This time around, people no longer assumed that Suishen Zhao was the one behind the miracle. Even Suishen Zhao himself seemed stupefied! The looks of the millions of saints, disciples, and even eminents were filled with disbelief.

It all told Tianming that he had finally succeeded in making Myriadpath Valley acknowledge him. They had already been reevaluating him after hearing that he was the one behind the vitality idol's quick clear. Now, faced with this result, the stubborn folk who still insisted that he was nothing but a tainted beastmaster could do naught but shut up.

"It seems unreal...."

"I wouldn't have believed this no matter what unless I'd seen it with my own eyes."

"Isn't that time a sixtieth of the previous record of fifteen minutes?"

"He's sixty times faster than the previous record holder! It makes him almost thirty times faster than the Maniverse Path's record holder!"

It was truly hyperbolic. The thousands of reverends wouldn’t be so stunned otherwise.

"Does he have some secret trick to comprehending the omnisentient idol?"

"Even if he does, it still takes an immense comprehension talent to actually pull through! Is it a mutation from his tainted blood?"

"Impossible! House Suishen are the ones with the most impressive comprehension ever!"

The deathly silence erupted into discussion. Not a single person wasn't looking at Tianming.

"Tianming!" Only then did Suishen Zhao manage to snap out of it. His eyes were completely red with agitation as he held Tianming by the shoulders. "Fifteen breaths! Fifteen! That's how long you took to clear the omnisentient idol!"

"I know." Tianming seemed rather calm. He was more focused on the fact that he could attempt to consolidate his fifth cosmic chart after the growth of his imperial order. If he did, he would have broken through twice thanks to the Prehistoric Path without even needing to touch order fragments or springwater.

"Do you know what kind of miracle you just created? Do you see how stupefied everyone is?" Suishen Zhao didn't even know what the appropriate reaction was.

Tianming could see it. "It's pointless unless I can convince your elders to change their minds about me."

Right as Tianming said that, a stern voice came from the distant platform where around a hundred eminents were gathered. "Little Zhao, bring him here."

It was Eminent Ranxing. People immediately shot envious looks at Tianming, feeling that something big was about to happen. "You've really done it this time!" Suishen Zhao was all too excited to hear his father's voice. "Quick, come with me! I refuse to believe that you won't be able to rise after creating a miracle like that. Even a fool would be able to tell that you're a super monster from the Million Mundi that only shows up once in tens of millions of years!"

Suishen Zhao was a prideful person by nature. The fact that he’d praised Tianming like that showed how much he had truly been moved. While Suishen Zhao was optimistic, Tianming kept his expectations measured. He really didn't have a good grasp of the elders of House Suishen.

Either way, I must put my unique talents on full display. Even if the Three Exalted Houses are blind to it, the two million elites of Myriadpath Valley will still be able to see it.

With that thought in mind, Tianming left the Prehistoric Path with Suishen Zhao.

Eminent Ranxing was the administrator of the Prehistoric Path for this cycle. As such, there were more totemancer eminents among the hundred that were gathered there, every single one of them superior to the likes of Eminent Tiankui. They flanked Eminent Ranxing on both sides, a sign of his supreme status!

Eminent Ranxing stood at the center, clad in flaming astral robes. Like a dragon among beasts, his dignity and aura of absolute superiority made him appear like an eminent among eminents. Tianming believed that Eminent Ranxing was probably among the top ten most powerful cultivators in the astralscape as a whole.
