Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2850 - Birds of a Feather



Chapter 2850 - Birds of a Feather

Under Yi Daiyan, Yushan Taifeng, and the others’ lead, the three-million-strong army surged into the underground passage. Astralship after astralship entered, and wherever they passed, the entire world shook. The shockwaves caused by their miniaturized nova sources created endless smoke, obscuring the vision of those behind them.

They had no intention of turning back.

"Annihilate the ebon rats!"

"Eradicate the wildbeasts!"

"Restore the tranquility and stability of Ebonia, and ensure the prosperity of the Infinitum Bodhimanda."

Their slogans were naturally righteous and noble and their sense of mission boiled every warrior's blood, making them brave in battle and willing to sacrifice themselves. Morale played a significant role on the battlefield.

"Our rex mundi has already killed the taixi fiendbeast; the spiritual totem of the ebons!"

"They’re done for."

"Even Shenxi Xingtian can only flee!"

"With the rex mundi present, whoever stands in the way will die!"

The three million astralships completely vanished from the horizon, entering the underground world through hundreds of thousands of underground passages. They charged toward Taixi City, causing a tremendous earthquake in the underground world. Nearly half of Ebonia shook, countless cracks appeared on the ground. If it weren’t for the protective formations, many villages and towns would have been split apart.

"We should get ready too," Xiaodao said.

Wudi had already returned to the Sun. Xiaodao and Tianming each commanded an infinitum-class astralship and were preparing to set off within the Flameyellow Guard Formation.

Just then, in Xiaodao's hand, the transmission stone of Shenxi Xingtian lit up.

"As expected, right on time." Xiaodao activated the transmission stone, and the dark golden shadow of Shenxi Xingtian appeared on it.

"Lin Xiaodao." Shenxi Xingtian's expression was sincere.

"At a time like this, Rex Mundi Shenxi actually still has time to chat with little old me," Xiaodao chuckled.

"Chat?" Shenxi Xingtian shook his head. "You know the reason I'm looking for you. I won't waste words. Now, with the dominance and strength of Yi Daiyan, are you really not afraid that, after she defeats me, she won’t turn around and lead this three-million-strong army to slaughter your Sun?"

"Afraid. Of course I'm afraid." Xiaodao nodded.

"Since you're afraid, can you really sit still at a time like this? Are you still dreaming that while the snipe and the clam are busy fighting, the fisherman reaps the benefits? Anyone who can see the current situation of Ebonia, I'm afraid, wouldn't be as optimistic as you are," Shenxi Xingtian said.

"We know our own strengths and weaknesses very well," Xiaodao embarrassedly said.

Shenxi Xingtian sighed and said, "Let me be frank with you. My taixi fiendbeast has been killed by Yi Daiyan. The million astral gods in Taixi City can't stop Yi Daiyan with her three million astral gods. Taixi City will eventually be breached. The only thing I can do is to counterattack with a tide of beasts, attacking the major cities and peak clans of Ebonia, forcing Yi Daiyan to be wary and retreat.

“However, this method can't break her dominance and will make me the eternal sinner of Ebonia, causing countless innocent people to tragically die.... But other than that, I really have no choice. We ebons only seek survival. Is that too much to ask? For the countless innocent people, what’s their crime?"

"Rex Mundi, if you pity those innocent people, you can refrain from launching the beast wave," Xiaodao said.

"What about my ebons? Should we just wait for death after millions of years of history? Yi Daiyan has the infinitum Stele, and you know her strength! In a direct confrontation, I dare not face her! Your Sun is even worse. Frankly, once Taixi City falls, my ebons, after losing millions, will only have Ebonopolis and the Ebonfiend left. I can't hold on for long.

“And once the Ebonfiend falls into her hands, she’ll lead more than five million astral gods and ten million astralships to engulf your Sun. That reckoning is definitely close at hand. Let me be honest—with the Ebonian fiendbats present, no matter where you hide, you won't escape death!" Shenxi Xingtian solemnly said.

Xiaodao fell silent.

"Lin Xiaodao, if you’re willing to be a saint once... if you’re willing to save the lives of the people of Ebonia and spare them from suffering, lend me a helping hand. It’ll also help yourselves! Yi Daiyan will absolutely not allow Lin Feng to grow up. The grudge of killing his father is no trivial matter. She’s overbearing and dominant, unstoppable by anyone. If you remain optimistic, hide, and shrink back, you’ll harm the entire Swordgod Lin Clan. We ebons no longer have the strength to resist the entire Infinitum Bodhimanda. Don't harbor any illusions!" he earnestly said.

Xiaodao took a deep breath and said, "Rex Mundi Shenxi, you ebons have a notorious reputation, and my Swordgod Lin Clan has a deep feud with you. Now, you stand on the opposite side of the entire Infinitum Bodhimanda. We can’t become birds of a feather. Thank you for thinking highly of us, but there's no need to talk about an alliance. The Lin Clan has its own plans."

"Lin Xiaodao, opportunities only come once. After I die, you’ll be the biggest threat to Yi Daiyan! Don't be confused. Don't miss this final oppo—" Before Shenxi Xingtian could finish his words, Xiaodao cut off the transmission stone.

"You refused?" Tianming asked in surprise.

"Yeah." Xiaodao grinned.

"We can pretend to agree, then betray him halfway. It's a perfect chance to catch him off guard," Tianming suggested.

"You don't understand. If I directly agreed, it’d only raise suspicions. With the integrity of our Lin Clan, only by acting so wishy-washy will Shenxi Xingtian be absolutely certain that we’re there to help him when our astralships appear." Xiaodao rolled his eyes.

"Your talent for bullshitting truly deserves a spot on the reges mundi ranking," Tianming teased.

"Get lost!"

Although he said it was bullshit, Tianming still thought that what he said made sense. After all, Xiaodao understood the 'integrity' of the Lin Clan and hadn’t given a definite answer. Letting Shenxi Xingtian imagine it himself would be more reasonable.

"Set sail!"

A two-headed dragon and a nine-headed mechanical black-and-gold dragon rushed out of the Sun’s sea of fire, heading toward the Ebonia Guard Formation.

"Rex Mundi." Tianming called Yi Daiyan through the transmission stone.

"What is it?" Yi Daiyan asked.

"We’re breaking through and entering the Ebonia Guard Formation. Don't let us pass and try to stop us," Tianming said.

"Why?" Yi Daiyan asked.

"To confuse Shenxi Xingtian," Tianming said.

"He's looking for you? Understood." Yi Daiyan was clever and immediately understood Tianming's meaning. As long as Shenxi Xingtian saw the Ebonia Guard Formation blocking Xiaodao and Tianming, it would indicate that she didn't want them to enter. In that way, although Xiaodao hadn’t verbally agreed, in reality, they were still cooperating, right?
