Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7468

Chapter 7382: The Black-Armored Man

During their conversation, Li Tianming had ventured some distance deeper into this desolate galactic wilderness.

Finally, he looked around and spotted an extremely strange and enormous sphere.

This sphere, made of some unknown material, absorbed light shining on its surface, thus appearing black.

In fact, all blackness appears to the human eye in this way, but no object in the world can achieve truly pure blackness. This

strange giant sphere, however, was infinitely close to so-called ‘pure black’!

This blackness, witnessed by Li Tianming himself, appeared extremely eerie and profound, as if any substance that collided with it could only sink into it, absorbing everything.

“This is… Dark Beacon Tower,” Yin Chen said at this moment.

At this instant, Li Tianming had reached his destination.

He then manifested from the void of cosmic stars, revealing his humanoid body covered by the power of the Bauhinia Flower Mask.

Li Tianming had just arrived and appeared briefly, and was studying how to enter Dark Beacon Tower when a tall, burly man in black armor suddenly appeared.

He seemed to have passed through the giant sphere, emerged from the Dark Beacon Tower, and arrived before Li Tianming.

Li Tianming looked at this person without much reaction, instead calmly observing him.

He saw that this black-armored figure was extremely tall, his armor thick and heavy, almost completely covering his body, allowing only a glimpse of his eyes through the gaps.

These eyes were devoid of emotion; under the heavy camouflage, his true appearance was completely obscured, making it difficult to even determine his race.

Therefore, Li Tianming had no idea who this person was.

Of course, the most important factor was the other’s strength. As the figure approached Li Tianming, Li Tianming felt as if a vast black ocean was surging towards him, a powerful aura far exceeding his own divine power.

The oppressive feeling this gave Li Tianming was even stronger than that of a Qian Yuan. Against

a Qian Yuan at the initial stage of the Saint Emperor realm, without using the Threads of All Beings and the Stealing Heaven ability, relying solely on the Chaos Sword Dao, Li Tianming might not be able to defeat him, but he could perhaps exchange a few blows.

However, facing this mysterious black-armored figure, Li Tianming knew that in pure combat, he would still be no match.

Li Tianming could even sense the aura of the Cosmic God’s power, perhaps even stronger than the previous Corpse Weasel!

“With this kind of strength, if he doesn’t use his trump cards, he could probably crush me with one hand…” After secretly assessing the opponent’s strength, Li Tianming became wary.

The moment this black-armored man appeared, he did nothing but block Li Tianming’s path without saying a word.

At this moment, Li Tianming curiously glanced around, but still couldn’t see the cosmic starship.

Seeing that the other party was silent, Li Tianming took the initiative to clasp his hands and say, “Fellow Daoist, I am preparing to leave Fengxu on a cosmic starship. May I ask where the cosmic starship is now?”

“The cosmic starship hasn’t arrived yet, but it will be here soon.” The black-armored man’s tone was indifferent, and he directly held out his hand in front of Li Tianming’s eyes, saying, “The communication star tower that the previous owner gave you, and the remaining 80,000 Super Star Dao Crystals, you need to pay. Only after you pay can you go in and wait, otherwise the transaction is void.”

After saying that, as if he thought Li Tianming was standing too close, he pushed Li Tianming’s chest without any politeness.

Caught off guard, Li Tianming was shoved by this extremely powerful expert, staggering back seven or eight steps.

He’d already suffered a setback before even boarding the spaceship.

Li Tianming’s expression beneath his mask changed, a hint of coldness flickering in his eyes.

But outwardly, he remained silent.

After all, for Xiao Jiu’s sake, he chose to endure it!

However, while Li Tianming showed no reaction, Xiao Jiu was practically exploding with rage in its companion space. Its black mist body churned and surged wildly throughout the space.

“Where did this little brat come from? How dare it block my way out of the city?”

“It’s not like I’m not paying! What are you being so arrogant about!”

“Let me out! I’m going to kill everyone here! Kill them all! We’ll break out of the city ourselves! We don’t need these arrogant idiots!”

Xiao Jiu roared furiously, its body surging wildly within the companion space, even leaving the other companion beasts somewhat helpless.

However, they weren’t even that familiar yet, so they didn’t dare to joke around, lest they tease Xiao Jiu away.

At this moment, Li Tianming was somewhat amused and exasperated by Xiao Jiu’s reaction, but all he could do was comfort her.

He kept reassuring her in his mind:

“Xiao Jiu, our primary goal right now is to get out of here. There’s no need to be impulsive about these little things…”

“You know I’m not one to suffer losses, but for our grand goal, we do have to endure some things. A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan!”

“Only after we pull off this heist will we have more leverage to make others submit. Your priority now is to become stronger. Then, you can deal with those who stand in your way however you want.”

Under Li Tianming’s constant and earnest persuasion, Xiao Jiu seemed to calm down a bit, no longer having the urge to instantly rush out and beat up the black-armored man.

While comforting Xiao Jiu in his companion space, Li Tianming also obediently took out the communication star tower and 80,000 super star crystals, handing them to the black-armored man in front of him.

At this moment, only by temporarily bowing one’s head can one have a brighter future!

The black-armored man reached out and took the two items, his eyes within the black armor seeming to scrutinize Li Tianming again.

“You pay, we provide services. We only guarantee to get you safely out of the city; once you’re out, we can’t take care of what happens,” the black-armored man said, as if reminding him.

Li Tianming nodded, indicating his understanding.

Then, the black-armored man gestured for Li Tianming to follow.

He followed behind the black-armored man, circling the huge black spherical object, and arrived at what seemed to be a fixed entrance.

The two entered the Dark Beacon Dwelling one after the other.

After entering, Li Tianming looked around at his surroundings.

The Dark Beacon Dwelling was very dark, yet it also possessed a warmth that seemed to come from nowhere, giving Li Tianming the feeling of being in a stove that had been extinguished for a long time, with only a sliver of warmth remaining.

The Dark Beacon Dwelling was very dark, but even in the limited light, Li Tianming could see that the space was vast.

Even this single space is large enough to almost accommodate a light-year level cosmic starship.

It’s important to understand that a light-year level cosmic starship isn’t just significant for accommodating a single light-year level expert; theoretically, it can hold an entire army of light-year level experts—that’s what a cosmic starship of that rank truly is!

Therefore, this further demonstrates how ridiculously large Dark Beacon Dock is!!
