Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7472

Chapter 7386: Taking Action

He absolutely refused to believe that the other party had specifically sought him out without any purpose.

Then, the old man introduced Li Tianming to the various areas the Ink-Dyed Sword had passed through.

“Look, this place is called ‘Starry Surge,’ a very famous scenic spot outside the Beacon Ruins. If you have the chance in the future, you can go and see it.”

“And this place, originally a desolate sea of Dao Calamity, inaccessible to anyone, has become a place open to all since a powerful figure took away one of its treasures. There’s also a market here with some merchants; if you’re interested in some trinkets, you can take a look, but expecting to find a treasure here is impossible.”

Following the old man’s introduction, Li Tianming looked towards the image array and saw a boundless crimson starry river, truly stunning and dazzling.

However, he wasn’t interested in any of this right now, so he seemed somewhat uninterested.

“Old man, you know we’re not here for sightseeing; we each probably have our own important matters to attend to. If there’s nothing else, let’s not disturb each other,” Li Tianming finally couldn’t help but say.

At this moment, the old man seemed to glance at the direction where the Hei family members were gathered, then moved even closer to Li Tianming.

He gestured for Li Tianming to come closer.

Li Tianming hesitated for a moment, but decided to see what the other party wanted.

The old man whispered in Li Tianming’s ear, “Young man, you’d better be careful. It seems you’re being watched. I’m just giving you a heads-up, but I don’t want to get involved. I’ll just talk about something trivial to lower their guard.”

Upon hearing this, Li Tianming’s pupils beneath his mask trembled.

After a long pause, he slowly said, “Thank you.”

Then, the old man didn’t linger and quickly left Li Tianming’s side after saying this.

“I didn’t expect to encounter such a kind person among this group…” Sui Shenyao said with some emotion.

Li Tianming also hadn’t expected this situation to occur.

However, even without this reminder, Yin Chen would have already noticed the anomaly, but at least this person’s words were well-intentioned.

“Someone like me, choosing an unorthodox way to leave the city and willing to pay a hefty price to do so, might be the easiest to manipulate in some people’s eyes,” Li Tianming mused, then added, “Of course, most importantly, I’m rootless and have no connections, and I don’t understand the rules of the underground black market. I’m definitely easier to deal with than those seasoned veterans

. Plus, I have a lot of wealth on me, making me a highly sought-after target. If I leave Fengxu, they’ll see it as suicide.” Li Tianming was self-aware, knowing how tempting he was to everyone.

But was the prey really just prey?

Li Tianming and the others weren’t worried about that at all; instead, they sneered inwardly.

In this inner region where cosmic rays were even stronger, Li Tianming’s Stealing Heaven Light and Heaven-Piercing Finger could solve most problems.

Even if there were a more powerful opponent, he could use the Boundary Planet to return to the Heavenly Emperor’s Territory and then use the Fixed Sky Butterfly to return to the Myriad Sects Battle Hall.

Therefore, he had absolute security and was completely unafraid of others’ malicious intentions.

After the old man, no one seemed to speak to Li Tianming again, allowing him some alone time. Besides communicating with Aurora and Sui Shenyao, he occasionally tried to continue developing his relationship with Xiao Jiu.

Unfortunately, the results weren’t good; Xiao Jiu was focused on consuming the Divine Treasure Stone.

But Li Tianming wasn’t worried. After all, she was willing to return to her companion space, and the day she truly considered him a member of her family wasn’t far off.

Soon, time passed.

The Ink-Dyed Sword finally arrived at its destination, reaching the territory of the Heavenly Treasure Province.

Li Tianming looked at the surrounding image map, only to see the rapidly changing scenery become indistinct, transforming into a relatively ordinary star system wasteland.

Of course, even as a wasteland, the conditions were far superior to many places on the Heavenly Emperor’s map.

“This is the Heavenly Treasure Province. It looks so big, but is it really this barren?”

“This is just the outermost area; it doesn’t represent anything.”

“Finally, we’ve been waiting for this moment for so long…”

Many passengers were curious and whispered among themselves.

At this moment, hundreds of black-armored men blocked the cabin door, their eyes cold and stern as they stared at everyone present.

“Disembark. We’ve brought you here. Once you’re off the ship, the transaction is over. Whatever happens after that is none of our business. Besides, whatever you see is none of your concern. You’ve paid for the service you received,” a noticeably more imposing black-armored man said coldly.

However, he seemed to be implying something.

Everyone followed the exit and disembarked, including the old man who had spoken to Li Tianming.

He sighed repeatedly as he disembarked, seemingly helpless but not daring to speak out.

Li Tianming was also among them, preparing to disembark.

But just as Li Tianming was walking among the crowd…

suddenly!

*Buzz*—a

light screen appeared, instantly enveloping Li Tianming alone, its purpose seemingly clear.

Li Tianming’s gaze sharpened, but he didn’t panic immediately; he clearly wanted to see what the other party’s purpose was.

This light screen seemed to rise from beneath Li Tianming’s feet, followed by changes in the internal structure of the spaceship, generating a special Dao array.

This was the Dao formation of the Light-Grade Spaceship!

Even if it wasn’t its most powerful formation, it was still far beyond the capabilities of a cultivator at the Heavenly Venerable level like Li Tianming.

Ultimately, Li Tianming was completely imprisoned, encased in a spherical cage.

At this moment

, a cold glint appeared in Li Tianming’s eyes. Everyone was startled by this turn of events, but upon meeting the black-armored man’s icy gaze, none dared utter a word.

They all pretended not to see anything, silently disembarking, some even subtly increasing their speed.

Li Tianming also remained silently within the spherical cage, waiting for the true mastermind to appear.

Soon, only Li Tianming and the black-armored man remained on the entire spaceship; all the passengers had fled as if their lives depended on it.

At this point, most of the black-armored men, having no passengers to monitor, looked at Li Tianming, their faces seemingly bearing a cold smile.

Tap tap…

Suddenly!

A slow, unhurried footstep sounded in the massive main cabin of the Light-Grade Spaceship.

The voice was calm and gentle, seemingly belonging to a very elegant woman.

Finally, the white-armored woman known as ‘Sister Nightmare’ appeared before Li Tianming.

This woman was completely encased in armor, with only her eyes visible, which held a hint of mockery.

She simply looked at Li Tianming without speaking, seemingly waiting for him to reveal the expression she desired.
