Chapter 1974

More and more of the darkness gathered and engulfed Sovereign Bluedepths. Tianming could only hear his miserable screens now. Soon after, the darkness receded, leaving a corpse falling toward the astralguard formation below. The darkness also now had a sovereign-level baleful spirit added to it.
Sovereign Bluedepths had perished; the six rexes were now the three rexes.
Lingfeng’s red eyes gave the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb a brief look before moving in another direction. He would pounce for the kill any time he encountered the living.
“It seems he’s only killing specters?” People inside the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb were stunned. Honestly, they had been rather nervous during the astralship battle, as the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb’s fate would have been the same if it had fallen.
“No, he’s killing celestial orderians too. I saw it!” someone added.

“He’s only not killing the myriad sects’ beastmasters…”
“So his mind is still clear?” That was undoubtedly a great piece of news.
Skywolf was definitely an enemy, but the celestial orderians weren’t friends either. Still, Tianming wouldn’t have attacked the celestial orderians when fighting outsiders. However, Lingfeng didn’t care—he killed both!
By now, the Primordial Demon had already merged with the flaming clouds
“Go, go find the next prey!” Tianming continued his operation.
Sovereign Boundless had clearly received news of Sovereign Bluedepths’s death. He turned tail and fled as Tianming quickly gave chase. En route, he saw many Skywolf specters being swallowed up by the darkness before their vitae were ripped apart and their corpses fell down.
Disaster befell many celestial orderians as well. The sun emperor had most likely noticed it, so he made the celestial orderians in the Flameyellow Guard Formation retreat. Their positioning below made it easier for them to retreat and control the casualties they took.
As for the specters above, they were forced to bear the brunt of Lingfeng’s rage.
“The sovereign has the Flameyellow Guard Formation, so he can quickly notify and redeploy his celestial orderians. That’s his advantage!” It wasn’t a very good time for Lingfeng to kill them.
After the highest celestial orderians died, those below fled downward. Thus, what was left was the ten billion Skywolf Blaze soldiers who were suffering from both the Flameyellow Guard Formation and the Primordial Demon.
There were simply too many specters in the flaming clouds. Tianming casually flew his Ninedragon Imperial Tomb forward and easily racked up kills as the baleful spirits ignored him. Lingfeng was clearly placing much importance on not harming him. That was the understanding between brothers.
“Although Little Feng’s power has so many uncertainties now, it really is the best chance for us to resolve the sun’s danger.” That referred to both Skywolf and the sun emperor, though the emperor was still an ally for now.
“You killed Bluedepths?” the Flameyellow beast wave ahead of the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb suddenly asked. It was clearly the sun emperor speaking.
“What of it?”
“Not bad, not bad at all! Keep working hard. Follow the beasts and I’ll help tie down Sovereign Boundless for you! Work together with your ‘little brother’. The sun really needs talents like you two!” The sun emperor roared with laughter.
Tianming did indeed need accurate intelligence now that he had lost Sovereign Boundless.
“Little brother? Afraid?” Tianming’s eyes narrowed.
“Haha, we’ll resolve the love and hate between us father and son after dealing with these jackals.” The sun emperor was still fearless. However, he wasn’t aware that Lingfeng’s foremost target now was him! Lingfeng was hunting all over for him.
“By the way, I may not have an astralship as strong as the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, but I exterminated Darkshroud myself. What a bunch of morons, splitting up in my territory to attack. There’s still two rexes left, shall we see who's faster?” The sun emperor continued cackling with laughter.
Skywolf’s sovereigns had split up to attack because that was the most efficient option for them. After all, the sun emperor couldn’t be in two places at once. However, they hadn’t expected how efficient the sun emperor and Tianming would be. The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, Flameyellow beasts, and Primordial Demon had quickly killed an astralship and its sovereign! Such a result hadn’t been expected when they split up.
“If Little Feng hadn’t helped, it would’ve been difficult to kill Bluedepths before he joined up with Boundless. After that, they would’ve ganged up on me and it probably would’ve been impossible even with the beast wave helping me! If so, the sun emperor must be rather terrifying to kill a sovereign inside an astralship without Little Feng’s help.…”
Grand Emperor Starvore must have been scared silly now. Four rexes had already died, and their astralships had been lost too! The ten billion specters were also getting massacred by the Primordial Demon! Worst of all, he still hadn’t found the sun emperor yet.
The situation looked optimistic for the sun as the Primordial Demon was single-handedly overwhelming the ten billion skywolves. However, at that moment, new trouble popped up.
At the astralguard formation Tianming controlled, Skywolf’s three remaining astralships suddenly appeared, including the Starvore! They attacked and were able to make their way through the formation twenty seconds later. Two headed off toward the celestial orderian territory, including the Starvore.
As for Sovereign Boundless’ astralship, it was rather close to Tianming. However, if he didn’t immediately give chase, catching up would be hard.
“These astralships will be a calamity for the ordinary folk with their destructive power!” Now that they had made it through the two astralguard formations, Tianming would no longer have the advantage of the Flameyellow beast wave.
The sun emperor would also have more problems. He probably wouldn’t be able to hide and would have to take on the Starvore, as well as the emperor and two empresses inside, the three strongest sovereigns.
Tianming couldn’t be bothered with that side for now. “Chase down Boundless!” The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb left the flaming clouds and began its pursuit. He had also lost Little Feng’s help, so he’d lost two of his advantages. Wanting to stop an astralship intent on wreaking havoc would be hard.
However, there was no time.
“I don’t know how long Little Feng can tie down the ten billion troops. Now that the celestial orderians are retreating, it’ll be bad once the skywolves make their way down and no formation is there to stop them. And the worst case scenario is if the sun emperor dies to the enemies’ top sovereigns.…”
