Chapter 3385 - Thirty-Two People

Tianming retrieved the baleflame from Yumo Hongyi’s spatial ring. He didn’t even glance at the rest of its contents before discarding them. The spatial ring sank into the storm and vanished in an instant, disappearing without a trace like a pebble falling into the deep sea. Perhaps everything inside would completely disappear from the world, like Yumo Hongyi had.

He hadn’t just witnessed the death of Yumo Hongyi, but the release of the souls of over ten trillion people. At the moment of their liberation, they became clear-minded, freed from the torment of resentment. For them, everything had ended, including their suffering and disasters.

For Tianming, however, it was just the beginning of his hunt. "From now on, I’ll focus on two things. First, I’ll seek out baleflame and other treasures of the Yin-Yang World. Second, I’ll kill House Yumo specters!" Yin Chen would help him find and select targets.

Thus, the treasure hunt and killing spree officially began.

Tianming enjoyed that lifestyle. Over time, the five hundred billion Yin Chens diminished and there were less than a hundred billion left by the time five years had rolled by. So he specially infiltrated an infinitum-class world where he allowed Yin Chen to feast, gathering nearly a trillion more Yin Chens before returning to the Yin-Yang World and releasing six hundred billion of them.

Establishing a field of vision within the Yin-Yang World consumed its individual bodies, something Tianming hadn’t anticipated at first. As a result, he frequently had to go out to replenish it.

Fortunately, with his current strength, he could traverse the Million Mundi without any trouble and could get as much ore as he needed.

With a rhythm like that, life passed by very quickly and ten years passed after the death of Yumo Hongyi.

"The higher the cultivation level, the faster time seems to go. Now, ten years feels like only a few months." Tianming had made decent gains in the past ten years.

First, in addition to the luckiest acquisition of the five kegs of baleflames from Yumo Hongyi, he had tracked down baleflame thousands of times over the decade and acquired sixteen more kegs.

That number would have been impossible for anyone else. A reverend would usually encounter baleflame less than ten times in a year and wouldn’t be able to obtain more than three hundred bowls of it... unless they had Yumo Hongyi’s amazing luck.

Together with the ten kegs of springwater Tianming had accumulated over ten years, he now had twenty-six kegs in total. Most pathkeepers wouldn’t obtain that much in two thousand years.

For example, Suishen Yue had never ranked first on the Fortuna Ranking. In his two thousand years, he would likely have accumulated less than half as much springwater and baleflame as Tianming had gotten in one short decade. That was a man with a reverend’s combat power, which showed how much of a cheat the Myriadworld Immortabeast was in the search.

It was one of the reasons Tianming had dared to take the risk of coming to the Yin-Yang World.

Aside from treasure hunting, he had also made progress in his hunt. He had killed a total of thirty-two House Yumo reverends! That included both fifth- and sixth-level foundationeers.

As long as they weren’t major pathkeepers, the reverends of the House Yumo were only slightly stronger than average Myriadpath Valley reverends. Not even a sixth-level foundationeer could block Tianming’s Greatsun and Pentagram Suishen Arts.

Those on the same level as Huang Daolie and Lan Yun were slain so fast they didn’t even notice Tianming’s presence.

In the Yumo Cave, the subsouls of the House Yumo reverends had shattered at least thirty-two times, far more than the losses of Houses Qitian and Suishen. That included Yumo Hongyi, a major pathkeeper, and five other core bloodline members close to her level.

It was obvious that House Yumo was greatly suffering.

In the seventh year, Tianming had returned to Myriadpath Valley after having killed more than twenty Yumo reverends. At that time, rumors had already spread about the significant number of House Yumo casualties.

House Qitian and House Suishen had also suffered casualties. Over the past decade, more than a dozen of their reverends had died, and hundreds of ordinary Myriadpath Valley reverends had perished. But in comparison, House Yumo had now lost over

fifty

reverends, including those killed by Tianming, which was more than double the combined casualties of Houses Qitian and Suishen.

Although some deaths in the Yin-Yang World came from internal strife or treasure disputes, most ordinary reverends wouldn’t dare to touch the reverends of the Three Exalted Houses. The three houses’ death rates had always been even, and such a death toll had never been reached before.

Fortunately, House Yumo seemed able to absorb such losses, and few of their reverends had left the Yin-Yang World. Many reverends stayed in the Yin-Yang World for decades at a time. Transmission stones couldn’t connect there, meaning they had no idea how so many House Yumo members had died.

It didn’t affect Tianming’s continued slaughter of House Yumo, exacting justice and liberating countless tormented souls.

But one day, while battling a sixth-level foundationeer reverend of House Yumo, Yin Chen warned Tianming that someone had overheard the sounds of battle and was approaching, urging him to finish soon.

The House Yumo reverend, known as Reverend Wulian, had combat power above Chen Tianyong and was extremely difficult to deal with. After a lengthy fight, Wulian realized he was no match for Tianming and tried escaping into the yin-yang essence storm, creating many obstacles for Tianming.

"Someone’s coming?" Tianming couldn’t afford to waste any more time. He immediately used his grand lexicon wonder to intercept reverend Wulian and chased after him!

"Recently, the 999 Xia words have shown signs of awakening the thousandth word. Once it awakens, it’ll officially become a fortuna-class wonder and its killing power will dramatically increase!" It was the embryo of an imperial-class wonder, and infinitum class was merely its starting point. The limit of the fortuna-class was ten thousand words.

With the ever-improving grand lexicon wonder, Tianming’s control ability had become terrifying. Reverend Wulian halted for just a moment before Tianming reached him.

"You!" Reverend Wulian turned around, only to see a purple mist surging toward him. The words on his body reminded him of watching Li Tianming fight Qitian Jian. Back then, he had discussed the power of Li Tianming’s wonder with a friend!

At that moment, his mind was completely thrown into chaos.

After fighting for so long, his heptastar organs were already heavily injured. Tianming launched Vitasteal, flooding Reverend Wulian’s mind with fear!
