Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7389

Chapter 7303: The Ten Star Palaces Unite!

“Well… the future is unpredictable. Maybe I’ll run out of steam, while Senior Sister Chaoxi will achieve great things later in life?” Li Tianming chuckled.

In reality, he had reasons why he absolutely couldn’t slack off; he was always carrying a heavy responsibility.

Of course, all of this was his secret, known only to his closest confidants.

Li Chaoxi waved her hand dismissively, saying, “Never mind, as long as I put in twice the effort in my cultivation, you still won’t catch up to me.”

Jiang Wudao, citing business to attend to, had already left.

So only Li Tianming and Li Chaoxi remained, walking side by side.

Li Tianming and Li Chaoxi soon arrived at the center of the Demon-Slaying Pavilion, where a long corridor of thread-source walkways led to various locations.

They stepped onto the colorful thread-source walkways together, heading towards the Heavenly Emperor Star Palace!

On the way, Li Chaoxi suddenly turned to Li Tianming and said, “Now that you are a ‘distinguished’ ten-star war god, you can choose the other nine star palaces to form your ‘ten star palaces.’ Do you have any plans? Have you chosen your star palaces yet?”

Upon hearing this, Li Tianming thought for a moment and finally shook his head, saying, “I’m not sure yet. I’ve been too busy cultivating and haven’t really looked into it. I’ll probably have to spend some time looking for them later.”

“No need to spend time. I’m here today, I’ll help you.” Li Chaoxi suddenly smiled and patted her chest, saying loyally, “I’ve been in contact with these star palaces longer than you, so I naturally know which star palace masters are more powerful.”

Li Tianming was somewhat surprised, but he smiled and nodded, saying, “Alright, then thank you very much, Senior Sister Chaoxi.”

In any case, a star palace like the Stealing Heaven Clan’s that actively attracted him like last time was a rare find.

Besides, even if he had the luck to see another unique star palace, Li Tianming could easily change his mind at the last minute, since there were nine spots available.

Soon, the two entered the Heavenly Emperor Star Palace, a star system shrouded in colorful mist.

“Come with me, I’ll take you to find it,” Li Chaoxi beckoned to Li Tianming behind her.

Then, she led Li Tianming through the Heavenly Emperor Star Palace.

They passed countless star-studded, seemingly impressive star palaces.

Li Tianming’s gaze lingered on some star palaces for a long time, observing them silently, but his steps never faltered, always following Li Chaoxi.

“Don’t be fooled by the dazzling light of some star palaces; they might be all show and no substance. Only those that resonate with your Dao are truly effective for cultivation,” Li Chaoxi thoughtfully explained, noticing this.

However, Li Tianming smiled and said, “Senior Sister Chaoxi, you misunderstand. Jiang Zhanshen explained this to me before. I didn’t have any designs on those star palaces; I was just taking a casual look.”

Li Chaoxi nodded, “That’s good.”

Soon, Li Chaoxi led Li Tianming to a spatial realm.

The star palaces here, in terms of brilliance, couldn’t compare to some of the more prominent ones.

However, Li Tianming could sense that several of them resonated with the Great Dao he cultivated.

This included the Primordial Great Dao of the Emperor and the Primordial Great Dao of Fate Tribulation, as well as other Primordial Great Daos brought by his companion beasts.

Li Chaoxi smiled and said to Li Tianming, “I saw your performance on the battlefield. Your racial abilities are numerous and powerful, and many of these star palaces resonate with your abilities.”

Li Tianming wasn’t surprised that she understood him; after all, they had fought side by side, and she had seen through all his usual methods, except for his trump cards.

However, the fact that she remembered them so clearly still surprised him somewhat.

“I didn’t expect Senior Sister Chaoxi to remember these things,” Li Tianming said, somewhat surprised.

“Isn’t that normal? I consider you a partner and a rival on the path of cultivation, so of course I need to know you,” Li Chaoxi said with a smile.

At this moment, she pulled Li Tianming along, first heading towards a star radiating golden light.

This colossal star, a light-year in diameter, shone with dazzling golden light, and its surface was marked with cracks.

However, these cracks didn’t make it appear fragile; instead, they were filled by the golden light, making it seem even more wondrous and extraordinary.

Li Tianming gazed at this star palace, his white hair bathed in its golden glow.

“You have more than one path, and I know that the Emperor’s Path is undoubtedly the most important, so I specially chose this one for you,” Li Chaoxi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Li Tianming stepped forward to observe it, and found it indeed a perfect match.

Just by approaching this star palace, he could already feel the pulse of his own Emperor’s Path, a subtle sign of growth within him.

“The owner of this star palace is no ordinary person. It is said that he was once an imperial cultivator of our Li clan, but records of his identity are limited to this, as it is too ancient. Although there is little information about him, there are records of those who have chosen to use this star palace, most of whom achieved some success in imperial cultivation.” Li Chaoxi smiled and said, “I found it by chance when I was looking for a star palace for myself, but the imperial philosophy within it is not quite suitable for me. I found something better for me. I can feel that it is very suitable for you. It is a combination of imperial might and imperial wrath. It is domineering when it needs to be, and it also has the aura of an emperor when it needs to protect benevolence.”

In fact, even without Li Chaoxi saying it, Li Tianming could already sense that this star palace was extraordinary!

“Thank you, Senior Sister Chaoxi. It is indeed very suitable for me. I can feel it.” Li Tianming nodded slightly.

However, just as Li Tianming was about to reach out and choose it as his star palace, Li Chaoxi pressed down on his hand.

Li Tianming looked at Li Chaoxi with some surprise, his eyes questioning.

Li Chaoxi smiled slightly and said, “Don’t rush. You still have so many star palaces to choose from. It’s not too late to merge them after you’ve chosen them all.”

“That’s true.” Li Tianming smiled in relief and immediately withdrew his hand.

Then, he followed Li Chaoxi to another star palace, its surface blazing like a raging sun.

“The owner of this star palace is also very ancient, but there are records that its owner is called ‘Blazing Clouds Star.’ These words shouldn’t be a name; I guess it’s the name of its star realm, Blazing Clouds, which suits you very well.”

Li Tianming nodded slightly. “So, this is a senior from a star realm race? That’s indeed very fitting. Thank you, Senior Sister Chaoxi, for finding so many star realms for me.”

“Say all that. Focus on your cultivation and bring out its full potential; that will be your way of repaying me.” Li Chaoxi smiled and waved her hand.

This star palace, engulfed in raging flames, perfectly resonated with Li Tianming’s Primordial Dao of Purgatory.

Moreover, Li Tianming could even sense a faint trace of lightning within it!

This suggests that the master of this star palace may have once cultivated both the Thunder and Fire paths, but primarily focused on Fire.

This is highly beneficial to Li Tianming, both for his Primordial Dao of Purgatory and the Primordial Dao of Chaos!

Li Chaoxi’s help truly saved Li Tianming a lot of trouble.

Finally, under Li Chaoxi’s guidance, Li Tianming selected nine star palaces, each somewhat compatible with his own Dao.

Li Tianming touched each star palace, making them belong to him, and his name appeared.

However, when he touched the last star palace…

*Buzz*—the

nine star palaces simultaneously erupted with their own light! For a moment, Li Tianming and Li Chaoxi were surrounded by a kaleidoscope of colors.

And these star palaces, located in various parts of the universe, were all heading in one direction!

Li Tianming could see that the slightly dim gray star palace had also crossed the cosmic space!

Streams of light composed of star palaces flowed through this space.

Finally!!

Several star palaces, rotating in a ring around each other, all revolved around the gray star palace, and then suddenly merged together!

Li Chaoxi’s eyes flashed with surprise upon seeing this.

“I didn’t expect you to have such a unique eye! You actually chose such an unassuming yet powerful star palace as your first choice,” Li Chaoxi said in astonishment.

Li Tianming smiled and said, “It just took me a little longer to choose. Luckily, I didn’t miss it.”

“Indeed, you should have put in more effort. Like I said, only what’s suitable is best,” Li Chaoxi nodded in agreement. “You see, if you hadn’t carefully chosen, you would definitely have missed this star palace, and many of the ones I chose for you were also easily missed.”

Each of these ten star palaces had a diameter of one light-year.

After merging, they seemed to reach a balance, bursting forth with even stronger starlight.

In an instant, this cosmic space shone brightly; they had merged into a super star palace with a diameter of ten light-years!

Seeing this, Li Tianming asked in surprise, “Ten one-light-year diameter star palaces, if directly merged, their size should be far less than ten light-years. Why is that?”

“The merged star palace isn’t simply an addition,” Li Chaoxi explained with a smile. “Ten star palaces, one hundred star palaces, one thousand star palaces—each level up brings a qualitative change, greatly increasing the aid to cultivation. There are many more mysteries involved; you’ll have to experience them for yourself.”

“I see, Junior Brother, I’ve learned a lot,” Li Tianming said, bowing slightly.

And on this merged ten-light-year super-large star palace, Li Tianming’s name slowly appeared, now completely belonging to him!

“Alright, it’s time for me to cultivate. Find me if you need anything,” Li Chaoxi said with a smile.

“Okay, thank you, Senior Sister Chaoxi,” Li Tianming nodded and smiled.

Immediately afterward, Li Chaoxi quickly traversed the Heavenly Emperor Star Palace, heading towards her own cultivation star palace.

Li Tianming, however, entered this ten-in-one star palace to prepare for cultivation!

Although he had entered a period of cultivation, his Emperor Heaven Plan was also progressing simultaneously in the outside world, as he strived to become a Grand Governor of a Hundred Stars.

Furthermore, the refining of the Demonic Honey was being handled by the diligent Lin Xiaoxiao, ensuring that none of the plans were neglected!

With development in multiple areas, Li Tianming’s foundation was increasing at an incredibly terrifying rate.

Li Tianming himself also began seclusion, attempting to break through to a higher realm!
