Chapter 3683.1 - Sundown Pantheon (Part 1)

Three gigantic figures suddenly appeared on the formation’s circular surface. Of course, they only seemed gigantic compared to Tianming. Compared to the formation itself, they were a normal size.

As dazzling light flashed around them, the three figures stepped out of the formation and arrived at the Order College.

The first to catch Tianming’s eye were two wonderians. To his surprise, they were both women. He had encountered similar wonderians in Skydome, but he knew that such cases were rare mutations. Normally, wonderians were born in male-female pairs destined to be life partners. But these two were both female!

Such wonderian women lacked the ability to reproduce, but that didn’t hinder their cultivation, growth, or potential to become powerful warriors. In fact, their uniqueness made the infertile, yet sister-like wonderian women enjoy an extremely high status.

They were considered the ultimate playthings that only nobility had the right to possess.

The two wonderian women each stood an imposing sixty meters tall, which indicated that they had surpassed the previous two children of heaven Tianming had encountered and were sixth-level overflowers.

Wonderians were renowned for their beauty, and they were no exception. Their hot, curvaceous bodies boasted perfect proportions, flawless white skin, and a mesmerizing glow shimmered around them.

One of them was enveloped in a frosty aura, exuding an icy elegance, and her delicate features were adorably exquisite. The other, in contrast, radiated fiery energy. Her ruby-red lips were dangerously seductive. Despite her passionate exterior, she was cold and indifferent in expression, exuding an air of dominance and maturity.

Ice and fire! The ice-cold one was charming and lively, while the fiery one was noble and aloof, creating an intense contrast.

No wonderian would touch such women within their race, for wonderian pairs were predestined from birth. Thus, they were often gifted to outsiders as highly prized offerings. Normally, such a pair would be presented to a single recipient, making them extremely rare and desirable.

Even their wonders were meticulously designed before they began cultivating.

At that moment, the two of them flanked a man from another race, gracefully walking by his side.

"A beastmaster?" From a distance, Tianming forcibly tore his gaze away from the two deep, mesmerizing valleys in front of him and turned his attention to the man in the middle, his brows furrowing. The man was sixty meters tall as well, and no doubt a beastmaster from the Upper Star Ruin.

Tianming hadn’t expected a non-wonderian to descend there. The human beastmaster had deep-set eyes and pale, icy-white skin. He was clad in platinum armor, his features exuding a cold, yet striking handsomeness.

The golden patterns on his armor were intricate, and its tailored cut perfectly accentuated his figure. It was at least a maniverse-class defensive artifact that offered considerable protection.

If they had been ordinary people, it wouldn’t have mattered. But at over sixty meters tall, Tianming had to keep craning his neck!

"Lord Doomsday Paladin, please" the lively ice beauty slightly bowed, gesturing toward the golden-haired beastmaster. "This is God Domain One, the final stop on your journey."

"Esteemed ladies, please... just call me Luori Tianlian," the golden-haired man softly said, his gaze sweeping forward as he elegantly smiled. "Traveling with the two of you through God Domain One is my greatest honor."

"Lord Tianlian, you’re too kind," the fiery beauty smoothly replied. "The Sundown Pantheon and our divine wonderian race have always shared the best of relations. Being able to guide you through this place is our honor."

Luori Tianlian smiled, but didn’t flatter them further. Instead, he wistfully sighed, "Alas, time passes too soon. Even though this is our final stop, I still wish...."

"Lord Tianlian, once we return to the Upper Star Ruin, we’ll certainly meet again," the fiery beauty responded with a soft, charming smile.

From that short conversation, Tianming could tell that their status was no lower than Luori Tianlian’s. Supreme beauties were naturally in high demand.

"Lord? Lady?" Zi Zhen asked.

"How should I know? I’ve never been to the Upper Star Ruin, and I’ve never met the Sundown Pantheon before," Tianming responded, feeling just as confused. "But the Sundown Pantheon must be one of the Eightpart Pantheons," he concluded. There was no doubt about that.

"Yugong Huixueji, Yugong Huiyanji. They’re from the same clan as Yugong Huishenjun. I recognize them," Bai Ye remarked.

"How do you know?" Tianming asked in shock.

"They said it themselves." Once again, Bai Ye's body flickered, revealing the tortured, screaming faces of the two children of heaven.

Tianming was speechless. So they did know them! One was Xueji, which meant Snow Princess, and the other was Yanji, which meant Flame Princess.

"If they keep walking outside, they'll soon realize something's wrong with the Order College. When that happens, we have to make a move. We can’t let them leave," Tianming firmly said.

He never expected that the first group to descend would be on a sightseeing tour, nor that they would even have two beautiful sister-guides. What a joke!

Following Tianming’s instructions, he and Zi Zhen retreated, while Moran stealthily circled to the God Domain Formation. If any of the three tried escaping into the formation, she would be the last line of defense to make sure they didn’t get away.

"Sundown Pantheon, a beastmaster? What kind of lifebound beasts does he have?" Tianming was dying to know.

Before long, the man and women had already reached the center of Order College. They were beginning to grow suspicious of how empty the place seemed.

Simultaneously, Moran had already cut off their escape route.

Tianming and Zi Zhen appeared before them. The three were still smiling and chatting, but Zi Zhen’s sudden appearance made them freeze for a moment.

Clearly, they hadn’t noticed the tiny figure clinging to Zi Zhen’s chest.

"A... specter?!" The wonderian sisters were visibly surprised. In the Ancient Oldgod Domain ruled by the orderlies, specters were a slave race that could never set foot in the Order College.

It added to their prior suspicion that the college already felt weird to them.... Both sisters furrowed their brows, their expressions darkening as they glared at Zi Zhen.

"Esteemed lady specter...." Luori Tianlian didn’t seem alarmed. He glanced at Zi Zhen, his eyes briefly flickering with interest as he spoke with polite courtesy.

"Lord Tianlian, please step back!" The wonderian sisters, however, were visibly anxious as they cut him off. In an instant, they each grabbed one of his arms and pulled him backward.

"What’s wrong?" Luori Tianlian asked.

"Specters are a slave race that can’t enter the Order College! Something’s wrong here!" Yugong Huixueji warned in her delicate voice.

"Oh?" Only then did Luori Tianlian start to feel uneasy. At the same time, he sniffed the air, and his expression suddenly darkened. "The stench of low-grade power from the Lower Star Ruins!"

Immediately, he pulled out a golden handkerchief, covered his nose, and stepped several paces back.

"Over there!" His sharp gaze instantly locked on to Tianming, who was positioned on Zi Zhen’s chest. His expression grew even more disgusted as he shot a glare at Yugong Huixueji and Yugong Huiyanji.

"What’s wrong with you wonderians?! How’d you let a flea into the Ancient Oldgod Domain?! Their bodies are filled with low-quality nova source from the Lower Star Ruins! If that filthy power contaminates our astrons, it’ll severely affect our ascension to cosmic godhood!"

After saying that, he couldn’t bear to stay a moment longer. With a look of extreme revulsion, he threw one last disgusted glance at Tianming, then at Zi Zhen.

"I didn't expect you to have decent strength, yet to fall so low as to associate with filthy fleas and ruin your own path to cosmic godhood!" He didn’t hesitate to turn on his heel, his face full of disdain, and stride toward the God Domain Formation.

It was clear he didn’t even want to bother dealing with them. He reacted to them the same way a human might react upon seeing a cockroach. Why squash it and risk dirtying yourself?

It was supposed to be the final stop on the Doomsday Paladin’s grand tour, but the incident had soured his mood.

Even the wonderian sisters looked annoyed. All those days of entertaining him had been completely wasted, and it was all because of Tianming!

"Let's immediately report this. Something’s wrong with God Domain One. Fleas from the Lower Star Ruins have infested it!" Yugong Huiyanji coldly said.

"The orderlies are missing too.... How strange." Yugong Huixueji frowned. After saying that, she hurried after the tall and handsome man. "Lord Tianlian, wait for us!"

Throughout it all, Tianming had only revealed himself and hadn’t even spoken yet! Yet before he could even say a single word, he had already been completely looked down upon.

Before he could react, Sixth exploded in rage on his behalf. "Kill them! Slaughter the man and take the women!" its voice roared inside Tianming’s mind.

"Why the hell are

you

so mad?" Ying Huo asked.

"Insulting my avatar is the same as insulting me!" Bai Ye viciously growled.

There was no way Tianming himself was letting them leave. He exchanged glances with Zi Zhen, then shot forward, appearing right in front of the three while Zi Zhen followed close behind, blocking their retreat.
