âHmm?â Shuntian Bohan had been looking at Tianming with amusement, but Ying Huoâs sudden arrogance made him retract his smile. The black âä¸â character between his brows transmitted an invisible pressure that pressed down on Ying Huo. He looked at Tianmingâs disciple card and slowly asked with a tilted head, âHowâd I not notice you were a twelfth-level stellaminor the last time?â
The Shuntian clan member wore a loose black robe with long hair down to his waist and seemed to have a feminine air.
âYes.â Tianming nodded.
Flames blazed on Ying Huo as it domineeringly said, âYes what yes. Beat him up Lin Feng, so I can have that ordered manna for dinner!â
âHuh?â Shuntian Bohanâs expression turned cold as he pointed at Ying Huo. âA naked provocation?â
âNot really, my lifebound beast just has some problems up there. Donât argue with it. Iâll be going first,â Tianming âsincerelyâ said.
âThen make it scram back into your lifebound space.â
âScram? Oi, watch your words before I teach you a lesson!â Ying Huo continued acting arrogant.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSorry about that.â Tianming awkwardly smiled and was about to put Ying Huo away when Shuntian Bohan waved his hand.
âNever mind.â
âWhat is it?â Tianming asked.
âIt pissed off someone it shouldnât have. How about this, you Lin Clan disciples have quite a few lifebound beasts, so it shouldnât matter if you have one less,â Shuntian Bohan said.
âI donât think you need to be so calculative when it comes to a mentally impaired lifebound beast?â Tianming helplessly asked as he pushed the blame onto Ying Huo. Ying Huo had acted like that to paint a target on its back, so that if Tianming found out he couldnât win, Shuntian Bohan wouldnât chase him to the death.
âIt isnât about being calculative. Thereâs just a price when you say the wrong words,â Shuntian Bohan said.
âWho the fuck are you? Youâre embarrassing, a man dressing up as a girl and strutting around!â Ying Huo spat. The moment those words left Ying Huoâs mouth, the area shook and the magma flow behind Shuntian Bohan began churning as it spewed fire upward.
âTwo choices, Lin Feng. Either kill that lifebound beast yourself or hand it over to me to do it,â Shuntian Bohan said.
âWell, I choose to pierce your heptastar organs, since youâre not using them anyway!â Ying Huo sniggered.
âFine, Iâll do the honors!â Ying Huoâs ability to draw aggro was first rate, and Shuntian Bohan had been driven mad. Killing lifebound beasts in the Oldgod Domain didnât have any punishments, so he immediately attacked.
âHey, this is a misunderstanding!â While that was what Tianming said, he still took out his Grand-Orient Sword to meet Shuntian Bohanâs attack.
âThereâs five black ants on him, each of them the size of a thumb. Do you see them?â The Shuntian Clanâs albusbeasts were small, so they didnât really need to stay in their lifebound spaces. Gong Shudingâs snakes and Shuntian Bohanâs shuntian ants were each like that. They spent more time outside than even Ying Huo.
However, despite their small size, Tianming had had a brush with one of the ants that had left a deep impression on him. âThe purpose of this fight is to see if I can resist Order. The albusbeasts are small, so Lan Huang and Xiaoxiao wonât be able to escape so easilyâ¦.â Thus, Tianming only intended to use Ying Huo, Meow Meow and Ji Ji in this fight. Ying Huo and Meow Meow werenât much bigger than the ants, and it would be very effective if Ji Ji used its Spiritual Attachment on them. Although he wouldnât have his full roster, he would still have his Grand-Orient Sword, Prime Wonder, and Fiendsky Arm. This was just an experiment, so that would be enough.
"He instructed his accompanying beast to speak provocatively! This Lin Feng really is bold, daring to challenge an orderan! The Central Shuntian Clan is also above average among orderans...." Tianmingâs choice of advancing instead of retreating made Shuntian Bohan frown. However, in the end, he just snorted. Because of his heptastar cosmic physique, cosmoforce, and order, no god had ever been his opponent since he became an astral god!
Shuntian Bohan drew on the terraweight order within his heptastar organs, which absorbed his cosmoforce and burst out. All of his albi began glowing with starlight, turning him into a man of starlight. Rocks, soil, magma, and even divine hazards were drawn over and crashed down on Tianming.
Tianming felt as if every inch of his body had a mountain attached to it. âWhat terrifying power!â
Furthermore, the terraweight order wasnât just coming from Shuntian Bohan, but his ants as well. The five ants were located on his head and four limbs. They all had over thirty thousand stars and boundless might to match.
Combined, six orders were acting on Tianming right now. Shuntian Bohanâs order alone constricted Tianmingâs albi, while the other fiveâs support made even moving difficult for him.
âSo heavy!â Even blinking made Tianming feel like the whole world was trying to bury him underneath.
Ying Huo, Meow Meow, and Ji Ji all suffered from it as well. The fight hadnât even truly begun, yet Ying Huoâs body and feathers were rattling like crazy. Fortunately, they had their own orders and heptastar bodies, which allowed them to resist. Their greatest shortcoming now was that, due to their level, their astralforce couldnât match up to their opponentâs cosmoforce.
Thus, their orders were flawed.
Infernal. Genesis. Ancestral. The three orders werenât even a hundredth of the opponents in quantity, but they still managed to carve out a space that belonged to them, greatly reducing the pressure on Tianming. Their orders were even able to target the enemy.
âYou have order, too?!â Shuntian Bohan was stunned to find a fire, lightning, and some pink destruction-type order acting on his albi. He stopped advancing; it was common sense that there was no order without becoming an astral god.
âYou must be mistaken. Iâm a twelfth-level stellaminor and havenât entered the ordered sea yet,â Tianming said. Order wasnât obvious, so as long as Tianming vehemently denied it, others wouldnât dare to believe he had it. Only those that Ying Huo and the rest attacked would believe it. However, whether those people would later be believed was another thing.
