Chapter 3588 - Divine Wonder Devourer

Tianming was curious how powerful Moran had become, as her strength would greatly influence their upcoming plans. He had her go all out from the start, so he had Ji Ji enter the yin-yang essence source in the Blissful Union to channel the essence directly into Moran's body to help power her divine wonders.

"Do we fight inside or outside?" Moran asked.

"Would it be easier for you to channel the energies outside?" Tianming asked.

"Somewhat, but these divine wonders are different. They’re more powerful in close combat," Moran said. She no longer had to hide deep in the ship and fight with her divine wonders outside like before. She could join Tianming and fight by his side, too! If Tianming's power wasn't able to match hers, she would play a bigger role outside.

"Let's fight outside, then!" Even then, Moran couldn't go too far away from the Blissful Union.

The man and woman faced each other out in space while Ying Huo and the rest watched from the sidelines. Tianming didn't use his beasts, totems, or the Grand-Orient Sword. The only thing he used was the grand lexicon wonder.

Countless omnisentient threads linked up with him, causing him to gloriously glow. The Galactic Emperor had descended once more. Even without most of his arsenal, Tianming's aura didn't seem the least bit weakened.

Everyone on Ebonia and the Sun, as well as the countless worlds in Infinitum knew that he was going to fight. But as he was just sparring with someone he knew, he didn't go all out—unlike the time he fought against the divine envoys. Even so, his power level exceeded that of a super-zenith foundationeer and Moran looked like a weak mortal girl before him.

"Ji Ji, go ahead!" Tianming yelled.

Given Moran's level, she would only be able to fight tenth-level cosmic cartographers regardless of how powerful her divine wonders were. Only with Ji Ji's help could she reach peak performance.

A pink tornado shot out from the Blissful Union and looped around Moran's body like a rope. It didn't seem too thick, but the power it channeled was stable and plentiful. Ji Ji's control over energies had improved quite a bit.

"Huh?" Right as yin-yang essence flooded into Moran, Tianming felt like a powerful beast had awakened. The girl before him glowed colorfully and brightly. She seemed like a fused version of the five divine envoys, emanating five blinding colors that formed ten layers of protection.

Every single one of her astrons was armored to the teeth, giving her incredible close-combat capabilities. Though it wasn't a real body enhancement, it was close enough to resemble it. Not to mention, divine wonders could freely change shape, shifting into offensive, defensive, and ranged modes of fighting. They seemed far more versatile than simple body strengthening!

"As long as she has yin-yang essence, she's as powerful as five super-zenith foundationeers combined!" Tianming was both shocked and excited. "Come!"

Ever since he’d become the Galactic Emperor, he hadn’t had any match within Infinitum. He fused the grand lexicon wonder into his astrons, like Moran had done with her orders, as the two of them clashed in battle.

Countless beams of starlight pierced through the flaming clouds of the Sun all the way to the ground, causing the surface to quake. Moran's pentaphase heaven wonder had ten components, namely metal yang, metal yin, wood yang, wood yin, water yang, water yin, fire yang, fire yin, earth yang, and earth yin.

"That's way too powerful!" countless people exclaimed. With a single loud boom, the two figures separated. Tianming's Galactic Emperor form surged with power and energy. The ink-haired girl opposite him had taken Tianming's punch; though her divine wonders shook, she didn't seem hurt in the slightest.

Tianming raised his black left arm and could still feel the pain within it. He hadn’t thought that Moran's tiny fist would now be comparable to his left arm even in his Galactic Emperor form. He felt like he hadn't punched her fist, but a cosmic artifact even tougher than high-maniverse-class ones! He was really speechless. After a long pause, he said, "You're really hard!"

"You are too," Moran said.

That was an awkward exchange.

Based on that exchange, I think we’re about evenly matched. Though she's slightly weaker than I am with my full arsenal, she should be able to take on five super-zenith foundationeers alone!

If Tianming had used his totems, beasts, and sword, it probably wouldn't be an issue for him to defeat Moran in her strongest form. Then again, she hadn't used any weapons either. Tianming took out the ten high-maniverse-class cosmic artifacts that had belonged to the divine envoys. All of them were swords.

"Those ten split-up envoys seemed able to use their divine wonders in tandem with swords. Do you think you can use those divine wonders to take over the artifact souls of these swords and make them serve you?" Tianming asked. He had wanted to pick a couple to give to the former valley lord, Suishen Xiyue, and Jiguang.

However, if Moran could use one sword for every divine wonder she had absorbed, she should just have all of them. They were a set, after all, and probably worked best when matched together. Not to mention, he would be able to deal with Myriadpath Valley with Moran alone if she could achieve overwhelming power. Tianming's Galactic Emperor form still couldn't be used near Myriadpath Valley, but that wasn't the case with Moran's power.

"Let me try," she said.

Tianming handed the swords to her. As the power of her divine wonders flowed into the artifacts, he felt the artifact souls’ fear of him in his Galactic Emperor form. The moment the first artifact soul felt the familiar energies of the divine wonders it had been paired with, it immediately submitted to Moran.
