The battle would probably be exhausting as he was now.

“If I still can’t seal the deal, I’ll have to come out again. It won’t be ideal leaving Little Feng alone for months again...”

It was best to resolve everything in one go!

The fifth-level primocosmic god sent by Mu Qingqing also arrived. He was her cousin, Mu Xuanyuan. After hearing of Tianming’s exploits in the Ruinless Zone, he had become a fan.

“Brother-in-law! Go ahead and strike. I can tank it,” Mu Xuanyuan said, patting his chest with a beaming grin.

“No one asked you to tank it. He needs you to treat him as an enemy and fight normally, so he can know whether he can defeat Yueling Qian and Yueling Kun.” Mu Qingqing said seriously.

“Oh? That’s how it is? Fine, but I should clarify this. I’ve clashed with Yueling Kun before. Even though we were at the same level, he had treasures, and I wasn’t his match,” Mu Xuanyuan said.

“Got it.” This was only a strength evaluation. Just a single exchange was enough to tell Tianming what he needed to know. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

“Without the new divine abilities of my lifebound beasts, I wouldn’t even be able to break a primocosmic god’s cosmic constellation. Even then, the ridiculous number of levels I can fight across will definitely weaken over time...”

Once Tianming began fighting Mu Xuanyuan, his expectations were confirmed.

Even in the Realm of Chaos, his ability to fight above his level was not exaggerated enough to leap a whole stage beyond a fifth-level primocosmic god. Truthfully, the skypole stars, though seemingly defensive, were helping tremendously.

Without the skypole stars, if Mu Xuanyuan pressured him with full force, Tianming would never have found the battle so manageable.

Although Tianming held back from using his trump cards, he still felt he would not be able to defeat Mu Xuanyuan.

“How is it?” As soon as the fight ended, Mu Qingqing asked urgently.

“I was too optimistic. I came back too early. If I return like this, I won’t be able to solve the problem,” Tianming said.

“Then what should we do?” Mu Qingqing asked.

Tianming thought for a moment and said, “This breakthrough was smooth thanks to forty years of accumulation. I still have more dazzling radiances to absorb. Let’s see if I can break through another level.”

“Mm. We have no choice... but make sure your foundation stays stable,” Mu Qingqing said.

“Of course.” Tianming had been using dazzling radiances for such a long time that he already had a process. He was taking a small risk this time, but it could be made up later with more cultivation sessions.

No permanent harm done!

He sat down cross-legged, and a massive dazzling radiance a thousand times normal size appeared before him.

“As expected of one sourced from the Ruinless Zone, it feels purer. It seems the rumors of many middlekin stars buried down there were true...” Mu Qingqing said in amazement.

“It is indeed purer.” Tianming remarked as he used Daosteal. The orb immediately began to melt, transforming into a dark-red stream of energy that flowed into Tianming’s arm.

“My constantly improving strength has also nearly unlocked another ability of the Plundering Eye.”

As expected, this massive dazzling radiance was not only far more effective but also extremely gentle. Tianming could clearly feel that this round of order evolution remained stable. He could withstand it!

His ten orders now required tremendous amounts of power, and he managed to absorb the thousandfold dazzling radiance in one sitting.

At the final moment, a stream of nearly black order energy, like a black shadow, was devoured by Tianming, nourishing his ten orders.

“...Hm?” Tianming paused for a moment, a flash of dark red glimmering in his eyes.

“What happened?” Mu Qingqing asked anxiously.

“Nothing.” Tianming only felt that the improvement of his orders was even better than expected. Since that was the case, he immediately converted his power again and began his breakthrough!

He went through another explosive growth spurt, growing to seventeen thousand meters tall!

“Heavencosmic god, fifth level!” Even though this level might still not guarantee victory over the enemy’s two strongest fighters, at least his chances were now significantly better. Not to mention, his ghoul legion had improved again, now having three thousand ghoul emperors.

“Time for my glorious return.”

Once everything was settled, Tianming grabbed Mu Qingqing without even giving her the time to increase the size of her clone. She wasn’t even half his height, which made carrying her much more convenient.

“What are you doing?!” Mu Qingqing fluttered helplessly in the wind, full of wounded indignation.

Tianming ignored her. He raced back, and when he returned to the Ruinless Zone, his massive stature stunned the observers.

“He’s become so much stronger!” Cries filled the air.

The fact that they were all still here meant that Ye Lingfeng had held out! Tianming streaked into the Ruinless Zone, bringing Lingfeng’s mission to an end.

His colossal body appeared above in the sky of the Ruinless Zone. As everyone looked up to him, they inadvertently remembered how Li Tianming had dominated all a hundred thousand years ago!

The seven-hundred-million strong heavencosmic army encircled him with icy glares.

“It’s time to end this.” Tianming looked down at them coldly, the blood vessels in his eyes a striking dark red.
