Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7702

Chapter 7617: Something Big Has Happened!

Li Tianming, meanwhile, focused intently on his cultivation within the Star Palaces. He would switch to a new set of ancient Star Palaces after each rotation.

With over a hundred ancient Star Palaces at his disposal, he had the confidence to be carefree!

Because he was constantly using new ancient Star Palaces, which were also the most effective, Li Tianming’s gains were immense.

Under these conditions, Li Tianming’s cultivation speed was far faster than when using the same ancient Star Palaces repeatedly.

Both man and beast were becoming stronger in their own ways, each utterly dedicated.

Meanwhile, Sui Shenyao and Jiguang accompanied Jiang Feiling, chatting and watching Li Tianming and Xiao Jiu strive in different directions, quite content.

Soon, five hundred years passed, and Li Tianming achieved another breakthrough!

While in one of the ancient Star Palaces, he simply gathered a batch of Light-Year Origin Spirit Springs together.

*Glug!*

He endured the excruciating pain of his Light-Year Divine Seeds almost exploding and frantically absorbed the Light-Year Origin Spirit Springs.

His light-year divine seed continued to split and expand, becoming capable of containing even greater power.

Boom—!!

With a deafening roar, he finally broke through!

Eighth-order divine seed realm!

In five hundred years, he had broken through two orders of cultivation.

He didn’t linger in the Ancient Star Palace, but instead left and arrived before Jiang Feiling and the others.

“That’s great, brother! Now, even without my power, you can easily crush Ji Yinyan with your own abilities,” Jiang Feiling said with a smile. Li

Tianming felt a mix of joy and sorrow upon hearing this. He said somewhat helplessly, “I’ve become stronger, but I’m still far from catching up to you.”

The realm Li Tianming had reached was, back then, merely a sliver of Jiang Feiling’s power.

The difference was like that between a stream and a mountain range.

“It was only a matter of time,” Jiang Feiling said with a smile.

This breakthrough consumed a significant amount of Light-Year Origin Spirit Spring water. Fortunately, he had obtained a considerable amount of Light-Year Origin Spirit Spring during the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War; otherwise, he would likely have faced resource shortages again.

At this moment, Li Tianming looked at Xiao Jiu, who was still happily munching away, and said, “Xiao Jiu, we should go.”

However, Xiao Jiu twisted what appeared to be a head within its body and snorted, “No! You cultivate, I eat, why bother with me? I can stay until two thousand years have completely passed.”

Li Tianming was speechless, then suddenly smiled and said, “What you said actually makes some sense, but didn’t you eat your fill for hundreds of years before?”

“I’m ‘grown’ bigger now, and my appetite is bigger too, is that hard to understand?” Xiao Jiu rolled her eyes.

“Fine, then let’s stay a little longer.”

Li Tianming thought about it and realized he wasn’t in a rush, so he didn’t try to persuade Xiao Jiu to leave.

Therefore, he prepared to continue cultivating for a while longer.

However, just as he was about to enter the next Ancient Star Palace…

Boom!!

Suddenly, the open area where Li Tianming and his group were located trembled violently!

Many scattered divine treasure stones flew everywhere, as if dust had settled in a cave, momentarily obscuring Li Tianming’s vision.

“What’s going on?” Li Tianming frowned.

Of course, he couldn’t enter the Ancient Star Palace to cultivate at this time, but instead observed his surroundings.

Xiao Jiu was stunned at this moment; many divine treasure stones it had inhaled stopped in mid-air. “I didn’t do anything!”

“Has someone discovered us?” Aurora guessed.

Jiang Feiling emitted golden light, seemingly piercing through the black mist of the divine treasure stone fragments. She observed for a moment, then said with a slightly grave expression, “No, it seems that the cavity here is too large, causing the divine treasure vein to collapse!”

“Patrol officers and soldiers have discovered us.” Yin Chen’s voice rang in Li Tianming’s ears.

They hadn’t directly discovered Li Tianming and his group’s whereabouts, but rather noticed this area because of this unexpected event.

Originally, this was one of the few patrol blind spots, with little traffic, but now, a large number of Divine Treasure Army soldiers were rushing here.

“Situation! All troops on alert!”

“Quickly report to the Imperial Governor!”

“Squad 1866, follow me to investigate!”

“Squad 1600!”

“Squad 877!”

*Tap tap!*

In an instant, countless Divine Treasure Army soldiers sprang into action, like ants discovering prey outside their nest.

A vast, swarming mass of soldiers, in the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of Divine Treasure Army soldiers in standard military armor were heading towards the opening through which Li Tianming and his group had initially entered the No. 1 Divine Treasure Mine.

…

Meanwhile, in the main camp of the No. 1 Divine Treasure Mine.

At the highest seat sat a tall young man.

His long hair was flowing, his eyes were bright, and his eyebrows were sharp and heroic; there was a hint of Prince Yuan in his features.

On either side of him were several powerful figures with imposing presence and clearly high ranks.

At the very center of this camp, there was actually a dance floor!

In the dance hall, dozens of stunningly beautiful women, with alluring figures and captivating eyes, passed by these noblemen every now and then, their fragrance brushing past their noses.

“Haha! Governor-General, how are these newly arrived beauties? Are they enough to alleviate the boredom in this dreary military camp?” an elderly general with white hair and eyebrows toasted the woman in the center.

“Heh…not bad,” the imposing man replied, swirling his glass with a half-smile.

On the other side of the man who bore a resemblance to Prince Yuan, a middle-aged man laughed loudly, “Fu Pan, you’ve become a general and spent quite a bit of time by Governor-General Di’s side. Don’t you know his temperament? He never appreciates dance; he always prefers real combat. If you’re truly sensible, you’ll voluntarily leave these beauties behind later.”

The old man, upon hearing this, slightly widened his eyes, “Marshal Tian, you make it sound so simple! These are the finest beauties I’ve painstakingly collected. While it’s only right to offer them to Governor-General Di, you know how ruthless he is with women. Even if they’re just playthings, I don’t want them to be ruined so quickly.”

“This old man is truly out of touch with reality.” Beside him, a young powerful member of the Hunyuan Clan smiled and pointed at ‘General Fu Pan,’ then cupped his hands to Governor-General Di, saying, “Governor-General Di, please don’t take him seriously. He’s senile. Next time it’s my turn to bring people, I’ll bring you something even more exciting, guaranteed to satisfy you. Do whatever you want with them!”

“You, Zhenyuan, we’ve been equals for so long, are you trying to climb up and step on my head?” General Fupan glared, then bowed to Governor-General Di, gritting his teeth slightly. “Governor-General Di, how could I be reluctant? If you fancy it, take it!”

Governor-General Di remained silent, only nodding with a smile.

Some distance from the main tent, near an empty cave, the Divine Treasury Army was already in complete chaos.

Inside the main tent, dozens of beauties had finished their dance and were now gathered around several high-ranking generals.

Some of them were even seated together, each with a beauty on their left and right.

This scene was hard to imagine happening in a military camp, especially within the tent of the highest-ranking officers.

However, at that moment

, a panicked cry suddenly came from outside the tent: “Report!!!”

“Speak!” Governor-General Di’s expression suddenly turned cold.

“Reporting to the Governor-General, something terrible has happened at the No. 1 Divine Treasure Mine!” The panicked voice came from outside the tent.
