Chapter 2393 - Divine Wonderian Hunter

Ten days later, at Brokensword Peak, Tianming was relaxing after the baptism ceremony. He didn't have to worry about anything during that time and could focus on researching divine celestial pattern formations. Ebonia didn't have daytime, so the night sky was constantly illuminated by colorful artificial lights.

He lived a truly dreamlike existence within this atmospheric world.

The minor reges mundi ranking event had lasted years, which felt like far too long to him, who was only in his thirties. Thanks to the time he had spent without Feiling, he was even more intimate with her than the time when they were newly married. He used up all the pleasure b.a.l.l.s he had in one go, making up for the years he hadn't been able to. It was perfect, and the beautiful lights of Ebonia only made the experience even more sensual as they scattered across Feiling's fair skin.

After the period of rest, Tianming had to embark on a new path. Feiling was a twelfth-level stellaminor and would have to make the final push to become an astral G.o.d. Some said that her level of insight had suddenly soared now that Tianming was back. These days, they always went in and out of the training halls together, somehow always refreshed, as if they had ascended to higher levels of being. Feiling's natural blush, especially, looked even more enticing than before. After their deeds, she would always cling to his arm in embarra.s.sment and squish her head against it, probably in fear of running into Dongshen Yue and the rest. She didn't want to let her seniors see her legs and hips weakly shuddering.

"It's getting far too awkward," she said in a hushed whisper.

"Huh? You didn't act like that back when you used Temporal Field and Cicada Blast," Tianming said, surprised.

"Shut up!"

"Yes, Ma'am!" He cleared his throat and continued escorting her along the path on Brokensword Peak. Having left the ancestral world, the ground of a nova source world felt surprisingly firm and grounded to him. Finally, he no longer had to risk his life!

"Big Brother, where are you going?" Feiling nervously asked.

"I'm going to look for Xiaoxiao and Little Fish."

"But I'm still like this...."

"Don't worry, they have no idea what's going on." Just as he was about to give her rear a clap, he remembered that his right hand was missing. Xiaoxiao and Moran lived in another building that was some distance away.

Ten days prior, when he had first taken up the position as master of the second branch, hed run into Lin Hongchen of the First Branch, who said, "For the record, I voted in support of the second patriarch."

"Not bad." In other words, Lin Hongchen had taken a stand in opposition to his own father, Lin Chongjing. Tianming felt rather touched about it for just about a second before he wrested away the rest of the green skeletons Lin Hongchen still had in his possession. The number of cosmic cartographer caeli within them were stunning, and their quality could rival that of the caeli in the sixth or seventh levels of the Caeli Vault. Xiaoxiao wouldnt have many chances to consume caeli of that caliber.

That aside, Tianming had decided on going to the reges mundi level to make progress toward becoming an astral G.o.d. He decided to check on Xiaoxiao before he left. Right as the two of them stepped into the building, they found Dongshen Yue there as well, guiding Xiaoxiao and Moran in their cultivation.

"Oh, you're here?" Dongshen Yue looked at them and couldn't help rolling her eyes.

"Yeah. I missed you too much, Grandma," Tianming said.

"You missed me so much that you didn't show up for ten days?"

"Haha...." Tianming awkwardly scratched his head.

Dongshen Yue looked at Feiling, then back at him. "You rascal. Don't you know that all your wives deserve an equal piece of you?" Xiaoxiao and Moran hurriedly looked away and pretended to be deaf.

"Ah, right!" Tianming came over, sweat forming at the back of his neck. He changed the subject and asked Xiaoxiao, "Howre you doing? Was it delicious? Sweet, even?"

"There's no way they'd be sweet." Judging by the rings around her eyes and her pale complexion, she had definitely consumed her fair share of caeli, which was what he wanted to see. He somehow felt much better about seeing her cultivation teetering on the edge of instability.

"Holy c.r.a.p, you're already at the twelfth level! It only took you ten days to break through twice?" He read her current level from the pink disciple card.

"Of course. As long as I have something to consume, breaking through is a natural consequence," she hoa.r.s.ely said.

"Wow, you're even speaking to me in that tone now. Someone's feeling good about themselves."

"Good? Far from it. I feel like my entire body's gone. Only my soul remains here talking to you."

"Wait, are you a ghost?" Tianming hurriedly backed off.

"Stop messing around. With those weird caeli, Xiaoxiao might become an astral G.o.d sooner than you. With Ling'er also becoming an astral G.o.d at around the age of thirty, theyll be making unprecedented history. It's unbelievable," Dongshen Yue said, agitated. If it werent for Tianming's amazing performance during the event, she would have started trying to persuade those two into abandoning Tianming for someone better.

"It's thanks to your teachings, Grandma. Youre the one that taught and protected us when he wasn't around," Feiling said. There was no way their progress would be so smooth otherwise.

"That's right! You're my precious babies. I'm all too happy to see you all flouris.h.!.+" Dongshen Yue breathed out a sigh of relief. During Tianming's absence, the entire household was in its most tumultuous state. But with Lin Xiao reinstated as a council member and taking Ku's place, they were now among those who had the most authority in the entire clan. Tianming was also made swordG.o.d disciple and the master of the second branch. "Things are starting to look good. With your status as a swordG.o.d disciple and all those merit points, all bases for the cultivation of the four of you are covered."

The young ones merely nodded. After that, Tianming told Dongshen Yue that he wanted to go to the Caeli Vault.

"Let me escort you all there." She got up and prepared to leave. With Lin Xiaos newfound, or rather refound, responsibilities, it was up to her to protect her grandson and granddaughters-in-law. Brokensword Peak was defended by a formation; Dongshen Yue had said that as long as Tianming wanted to leave, he had to be escorted by her for protection just in case.

"Let's go." The five of them boarded a mini s.h.i.+p. Xiaoxiao and Moran had basically spent all their time beside Dongshen Yue. They were able to cultivate in the s.h.i.+p all the same, since all Xiaoxiao needed to do was consume and sleep to recover. She didn't need the Caeli Vault at all. Moran's level, on the other hand, was lagging behind, so she didn't have to keep to that stringent of a schedule. Sometimes, Moran and Xiaoxiao were both almost free enough to pursue cricket fighting as a hobby.

"Once Ji Ji wakes up, let's test the power of your divine wonders," Tianming said.

"Oh, theres no rush," Moran said in a demure voice.

"Are you afraid of the divine wonderians?"

"No. They're prey. I'm the hunter." She smiled as an unfamiliar glint flashed across her eyes.
