Chapter 2408 - Gladeusguard Formation

Wouldn't I be able to dominate in Ebonia with a divine wonder like that? Tianming's heartbeat quickened at the thought of that. He was tempted indeed. Then again, the cities grew stronger with each one he pa.s.sed. He could probably only reach the eleventh out of all twenty-nine at his level of strength. Not to mention, what would inheriting a divine wonder look like? Could they even be inherited? It didn't seem realistic. It could even be a trap.

Tianming calmed himself by taking a few deep breaths and the old man's voice ceased. An imperial-cla.s.s divine wonder, though.... If I really were to obtain it.... With that thought in mind, he left the Skydome Battlefield.

......

Right as he woke up in Orderia, Feiling said that Lin Xiao and the rest were expecting him in the council. "Go, quickly."

"Wait, let me take a sniff." Tianming plastered his face in her bosom and took a deep breath. "Aaaah, it smells good."

"Do I smell as good as the wondersky fairy?" she asked, feigning a smile.

"Haha, is someone getting jealous of a mere heavenly celestial pattern? That's new," Tianming said with an awkward laugh. Xiaoxiao and Moran pretended they didn't hear anything and kept cultivating.

"Just go!" Feiling gave him a push and he left.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Granduncle Xiong, Uncle Changkong, and Uncle Chongyao..." Tianming greeted all of his protectors, but he noticed that their expressions were grim. "What happened?"

Lin Changkong pursed his lips and said, "Lingxiao didn't succeed in Gladeus."

"Oh, is it the matter of getting the most powerful member of the Lin Clan to take me as a disciple?" Tianming felt rather relieved. He had thought that somebody might have been hurt, or maybe something at the Grandnorth Dongshen Clan had gone south. Thankfully, neither was the case.

"That's right. That fellows really throwing around his weight. He said that he isnt interested in forming a tenth branch, nor will he be joining the council, so he won't come to Ebonia to protect you. In other words, he's leaving us to our own affairs and asking us not to bother him," Lin Changkong said with dissatisfaction.

"As someone with the clan's bloodline, he's enjoyed the benefits our forebears have left us. Yet now he's hiding in Gladeus high up on his pedestal. Someone like him isn't fit to be called the strongest member of our clan," Dongshen Yue scoffed.

"I see...." Tianming felt rather troubled as well. He had been waiting an entire month for a reply from the etherean in Gladeus. If hed decided to come, Tianming would have had more freedom moving around the Infinitum Swordsea. Not only would he be able to cultivate at the reges mundi level in the Caeli Vault, someone could have also accompanied him to the Swordsoul Purgatory! But now, all those plans had gone down the drain.

"That's right. Lingxiao mentioned that itll be impossible to get him to come to Ebonia," Lin Changkong said with helpless resignation.

"Didn't someone say that he was interested in talented disciples? My amazing three wives and first place in the minor reges mundi ranking wasn't enough for him?" Tianming asked.

"It isnt like you're inadequate. He even praised you in front of Lingxiao for your performance. However...."

"What is it, Uncle Changkong?"

"He said that if you want to become someone's disciple, you have to show sincerity by going to Gladeus and accepting his trial. Not to mention, you'll have to become his attendant and pledge your loyalty to Gladeus." Lin Changkong felt rather speechless about the demands.

"Wow, now that's something indeed." Even Tianming had to admit that n.o.body other than the etherean could pull that off. After some thought, he asked, "Grandpa, does Gladeus have somewhere like the reges mundi level of the Caeli Vault, or anything equivalent?"

"No."

"What about somewhere like the Swordsoul Purgatory? Are there any legacies of the Grandvoid Swordfiend or Unisword G.o.ddess there?"

"No."

"Will I be able to spend my 2.5 million merit points there?"

"There will be some place, but the quality of the goods you can get there can't compare to that of the Infinitum Swordsea," Lin Xiao said.

"Then I can't go there. There's barely anything in it for me," Tianming said.

"Of course you can't."

Lin Changkong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Not to mention, we can't even trust him fully, so we wouldn't let you go there alone anyway. The environment there can't compare to Ebonia's, either."

"Well, there are perhaps two minor advantages," Lin Xiao said.

"What are those?" Tianming asked.

"Gladeus is a fifth-cla.s.s nova source world, so its nova source can't compare to Ebonia's. However, that fellow controls the fusion formation there, so you can cultivate in the core. In that sense, the quality of cosmic impulses and nova source might be better than what you can get in the Infinitum Swordsea. Additionally, he can also activate its defensive formation to lock down the entire star! Even if the ebons send their divine astrals.h.i.+p fleet, they wouldn't necessarily be able to conquer Gladeus. Hed be so adept at controlling the Gladeusguard Formation that not even Tianxi or the otherworldly abomination from the ancestral world would be able to enter it."

"Gladuesguard Formation?" It sounded rather useful when Lin Xiao put it that way. "Is that formation better than the one we have at the Infinitum Swordsea?"

"Of course. It's the astralguard formation of a fifth-cla.s.s nova source world. It's only inferior to Ebonia's own astralguard formation," Lin Chongyao said. The astralguard formation of Ebonia wouldn't be able to protect Tianming from internal threats.

Tianming gave it a bit more thought. If it werent for the fact that some divine wonderian bigwig was keeping an eye on him, he wouldn't want to leave Ebonia at all. The Gladeusguard Formation should be able to cut off the ebons and divine wonderians, huh... If they really want to get to me, they'd have to start an astral war. The Rex Mundi, Yi Daiyan, definitely wouldnt allow that to happen.

The issue was that the defensive formation of the Infinitum Swordsea couldn't compare to the Gladeusguard Formation. Not to mention, Tianxi and that monster had already snuck into it before it was activated. There might be divine wonderians there, too. Still, it isnt enough! Before I become an astral G.o.d, the reges mundi caeli are far too important. I have to go to the Swordsoul Purgatory, too, not to mention spending my merit points! He was completely perplexed. Also, the situation at Mount Taia is tense! If I leave, they won't be able to take advantage of Yin Chen. Grandma's clan will be in more danger!

He had to stay.

"Since that fellow isn't willing to come, Feng'er doesn't need to wait anymore. The four of us will escort you to the Swordsoul Purgatory tomorrow," Lin Changkong decided.
