Chapter 2038
The words of the two sovereigns immediately boosted Tianming's reputation. He would be able to break through the upper limits of Violetglory, and after the battle, the number of believers he would have there would definitely number more than a billion!
"If I can persuade all living things in Violetglory, that’d give me 1.8 trillion Omnisentient Threads! With that terrifying number, who’d be able to take me on when I'm on my own turf?" While that only applied when he was near his subjects, it was terrifying nonetheless. As long as he didn't leave his territory, he would always be that powerful. Though, that was still just a distant goal for now, one he had yet to realize.
The plan to migrate the Violetglorians to the sun had come about as a result of him not wanting them to suffer because of him. Yet if it really worked out, it would be killing two birds with one stone. The faith of the Violetglorians might be more important to him than their world's nova source in the short term, something which not even the two sovereigns were aware of. Naturally, though, it was harmless to them. As long as Tianming remained standing, they would enjoy decent futures.
Tianming knew what the fight today really meant. It wasn't just a simple exhibition, but a battle with all too real stakes. "If I don't take down the two sovereigns and fully convince them, how could I expect them to stand by my side in the fight against such a mighty force like the mysterians?"
The atmosphere in the arena had reached its peak. Tianming had already recorded his current combat capabilities through the heavenly locus formation, including his enhanced Grand-Orient Sword, which had been mostly well emulated. While his Imperial Sword Prison didn't work in the wondersky realm, his Imperealm Sword Formation could unleash its full power with the Flint Infernal Impulse.
"Come!" The tattoos on his body turned into lifebound beasts. In the sky was a black and red phoenix of flame, descending menacingly like a sovereign beast. Then, a black and white Regal Chaosfiend, a sword-covered two-headed dragon, a beautiful dryad spirit, and fifty million fist-sized ladybugs appeared beside him.
"They're all sovereign beasts!" Another wave of shock spread through the audience. Tianming had already convinced many of them with that display alone, but more was yet to come. For the first time, the decapath era godswords would manifest in the wondersky realm in their full glory! One after another, the swords manifested in the sky.
"His totems are as impressive as ever...."
"Did you see? Even Sovereign Starfeather only has eight totems, his violetcloud swordkings. While they're all celestial totems, they're one short of Li Tianming's!"
"Wait, count again!"
"One... two... three.... Wait, there’s ten?!"
"Ten?!"
"One of those swords hasn't been seen before!"
"My eyes weren't lying! There really are ten totems!"
"Heavens...!"
This time around, trillions of people seemed to forget to breathe at the same time, all counting again and again to check.
"Who can tell me what it means for someone to have ten bane-rings?"
"Don't even think about it! Not even mysterians have decabanes! He's at the top of the entire universe!"
"The greatest of all time... is from Violetglory? Would you even dare to fathom that?"
"No... never...."
Those watching at the Astraldome knew where they stood, which was why the terrifyingly powerful Tianming drove them wild. The moment his decabane status had been revealed, the game was as good as over.
Sovereign Brightscorch was bathing in the light of the decapath era godswords. "A historically unprecedented monster."
"Indeed," Sovereign Starfeather agreed.
What the two of them left unsaid was that their final decision had mainly been motivated by the fact that Tianming was a shining beacon of hope. He’d already basically won over the hearts of everyone in Violetglory with his two magnificent displays of power, which had automatically given him a huge say in the world's future. The sovereigns also wanted to use the battle today to properly legitimize his authority, and were hoping that he would really be able to defeat the both of them.
"Enough marveling, let's fight!" Sovereign Brightscorch said, gritting his teeth. He would leave it all to true might.
"I really didn't think we’d ever fight on the same side," Sovereign Starfeather said.
Theft is never good, try looking at [ .com ].
"You’d better not hold back."
"Nonsense. I'm not qualified to fight with a handicap against someone like him."
"Enough talk, let's go!"
Tianming, his lifebound beasts, and all ten of his totems each applied a huge pressure on both sovereigns. Even before the fight started, it was almost clear who would win!
"He's a natural-born ruler of the astralscape of order!" many unconsciously cried when they felt his aura.
"Our Violetglory truly is magnificent!" The Violetglorians were even beginning to feel pride, thinking that Tianming was one of them.
As the crowd cheered, both sovereigns struck at the same time. Sovereign Brightscorch came charging from the left side. Being a divineglorian, he was basically identical to Princess Shen Yu, but much stronger. The grade-nine divinespring at the center of his chest stored an incredible amount of astralforce and was brilliantly shining through his armor. His lifebound beasts were also some kind of astral lifeform. Five gigantic stars appeared beside him before morphing into five winged horned beasts! They were known as pentaphasic emperor stars. Like Yin Chen, they were metallic lifeforms, but Yin Chen could take on many forms, while the pentaphasic emperor stars could only take on their normal or bestial forms, which slightly resembled the Archaionfiend.
Each of the beasts had a corresponding element, ranging from metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The sovereign himself was armed with a spear called the Divinemight Cloakstar. Coupled with his beasts and divinespring, he seemed even more powerful than Sovereign Greenvoid.
Sovereign Starfeather didn't lose out in terms of awesomeness in the least. Wielding a sword, the Celestialstar Divinefeather, he sported eight violetcloud swordking totems that looked like incarnations of divine beings. Each of them held a gigantic violet blade that was pointed at Tianming.
"Come!" Tianming seemed even more impressive, facing off against both sovereigns at the same time. The audience tensed up at the start of this epic battle; totems, beasts, and cultivators were about to clash in the Violetcloud Battlefield! In terms of lifebound beasts, Tianming had five, but Yin Chen alone ballooned that number, not to mention that it could be the progenitor of all astral beasts! As for totems, he had two more swords than Sovereign Starfeather had swordkings. What was more terrifying was that he also had a specter-like Fiendsky Arm and the prime wonder to apply more pressure with! With all of his advantages, it didn't seem like he was being ganged up upon, despite fighting alone. He swiftly managed to gain the edge in momentum.
