Beastmaster of the Ages-Chapter 2703 - Eighty-One Totems?

Tianming discovered that the races in the Xenoabyss had relatively high levels of soul strength, which was related to soulstones and xeno source. For instance, Qi Huan was a fifth-level cosmic cartographer, which wasn’t as high as Gongyang Yan. However, her soul strength was on par with Gongyang Yan!

And Beibei, for example, was only a fifth-level orderan, lower than Tianming. However, she nearly had a sixth cosmic soul.

"Soulstones are really useful!" The development of the soul was related to talent and order comprehension, and it was a way to enhance both. Sitting on Meow Meow, he tried cultivating with soulstones.

A hundred thousand soulstones might not be a lot, but it was enough.

"Order fragments and soulstones! And then...." Tianming's goals were very clear and he was calm inside.

Meow Meow raced along, but even as strong as it was, it would still get tired. The Xenoabyss was vast beyond measure; Tianming estimated that, by relying on Meow Meow's 'catpower’, it would take several years to reach the capital city without an astralship. He would need to reach Commonsky City to accurately calculate the time.

"But my map is too rough. I don't know if the scale is correct...."

Meow Meow had been running for a few months; when it got tired, Tianming would let it rest and use Ying Huo to fly. Ying Huo had mocked Meow Meow earlier, but when it was its turn to be a mount, it was at a loss. Lan Huang, on the other hand, wanted to gallop as a mount, but it was too large and could easily cause a commotion.

"This is really an uninhabited, desolate ancient world in the middle of nowhere! Even birds won’t shit here." Tianming sighed as he sat on the Aeternal Infernal Phoenix.

"Says who? I'll show you." Something blazing with fire dropped from Ying Huo's tail.

Tianming was rendered completely speechless by the foolish chicken and was thinking about taking a break, when suddenly, a red figure appeared on the side of the mountain ahead.

"A person?" The red figure didn't look like a specter. He took a quick glance and confirmed that she was, like himself, a visitor from another world.

"Finally, I've encountered someone who's alive and not a native." Over their journey of several months, they had only encountered desolation beasts that came running to serve as snacks for Xian Xian. And although he had met a person now, Tianming hadn't planned to waste any time. freewe(b)novel

However, the outworlder in the red dress saw him and moved in his direction. "Young Sir, please stop." With a soft sigh, she transformed into a red blur that pounced toward Tianming.

"Is something the matter?" Tianming asked while standing on Ying Huo. He could see that she was a beautiful woman in a red dress with fair skin. Her beauty was enchanting, and her seductive peach-blossom eyes held a hint of temptation. Her waist swayed like a snake, as if it had endless power.

"The Xenoabyss is vast, and meeting someone is a matter of fate. Mu Ying hopes to travel with the young man to have some companionship. Can I?" the woman in the red dress, Mu Ying, asked as she came closer.

Tianming didn't speak, but Ying Huo stopped and said, "You're lucky. This one is quite serious, and won't lay a hand on you."

"Get lost," Tianming said, glaring at the bird. To be honest, he hadn't encountered any other outworlders so far, so he was curious. He wanted to know which mundus she hailed from.

After stopping, Mu Ying picked up the pace and approached him. He was just about to ask where she was from when he noticed an insidious flicker in her eyes.

“Huh?” His pupils contracted as she drew a cosmic artifact and her cosmoforce surged out and she launched herself at him.

"Killing upon first meeting?" That did take him quite by surprise. Nevertheless, he quickly reacted.

Without a word, Ying Huo immediately spewed out a Sixpath Infernal Lotus. Simultaneously, to avoid getting hurt, it shrank down into a tiny yellow chick, leaving Tianming, who had been preparing for a fight, stepping onto thin air and nearly crashing down to the ground.

"You pig-like teammate!" he spat. It only cared about itself, so Tianming ignored it.

The Sixpath Infernal Lotus was flung out, forming six massive flaming lotuses in the sky. However, in the next moment, one by one, horned, crimson snake heads tore through the fire! They weren't lifebound beasts, but totems.

Tianming counted a total of eighty-one ferocious snake heads, which startled him.

"Eighty-one totems?" Just as he was wondering about it, the woman in the red dress charged out of the Sixpath Infernal Lotus. Her totems had all risen from her body.

Only then did Tianming realize that her totems were nine-headed serpents, making a total of nine totems. Nine times nine made eighty-one, which had led him to mistakenly believe there were eighty-one totems.

However, there were still eighty-one snake heads chaotically swaying around the woman in the red dress, just like eighty-one totems. They locked on to Tianming.

After intercepting him, the woman in the red dress appeared emotionless and with a cold face. She wielded a snake-shaped longsword that turned into an eerie red light as it thrust toward Tianming!

The hem of her dress fluttered and her long legs appeared, making the eighty-one snake heads seem like tails.

"Do you have a death wish?" What was the reason to attack with such apparent murderous intent? Tianming was somewhat puzzled.

"Are you new here?" The woman in the red dress's eyes sparkled. She was evidently more excited and sneered, "Judging by your ignorance and naiveté, I can tell you won't survive the day."

Tianming merely smiled coldly, his gaze turning icy in an instant. He had figured it out. In this Xenoabyss, killing an outworlder didn't carry any responsibility, because within the astrascape of order, the two individuals were likely separated by an endlessly vast distance.

This place was a slaughterhouse for outworlders! Killing others and profiting from it was the quickest way to wealth. That was why the woman in the red dress immediately harbored murderous intent and treated him as her prey.

Tianming immediately summoned the decapath era godswords while the Prime Wonder became nine Prime Cosmic Rings that flew around him. For the Grand-Orient Sword and its cosmic impulses, and the Prime Tower and the rest of its nine floors, they all seemed to have portents of changes. Tianming was currently exploring their path to advancement.

"When you encounter someone that’s asking for death, the polite thing to do is to take their life." He locked on to the woman in the red dress and the Prime Cosmic Rings directly smashed forward. Several of the eighty-one snake heads were crushed, but the rest all pounced toward Tianming.

"Die!" the woman in the red dress shouted.

Tianming's gaze sharpened as his lifebound beasts emerged. How would he ever be afraid of being confronted by a group attack?

First simulacrum: Swordheart! His totems entered his sword, then the Grand-Orient Sword split in two.

"The one who's going to die here is you," he spat.
