Beastmaster of the Ages-Chapter 3562 - Peerless Tycoon
Chapter 3562 - Peerless Tycoon
As the old patriarch had said, if Tianming truly had the ability, there would have been no need to run today.
“Moreover, if it wasn’t him, but someone around him who possessed such abilities, given the current instability within Myriadpath Valley, he wouldn’t have needed to flee.” The old patriarch grit his teeth as he spoke.
Their blind spot remained the Galactic Emperor’s legacy, something that they could never grasp within their understanding of the world.
Suishen Ranxing furrowed his brows for a long time before finally turning his gaze toward the Myriadpath Celestial Formation. “To be honest, I’d really like to take a trip to the copper coffin secret realm. I’d probably figure it all out there.”
“The problem is, if you go, both Yumo Diyan and Qitian Muyu would have to go, too. Who would defend against the Grand Myriadpath Ruins then?” As it stood, they couldn’t locate the position of the Grand Myriadpath Ruins. Who knew where it was?
“We can only wait for the investigators to figure it out,” Suishen Ranxing sneered. They were stuck, with no leads nor ideas.
“Did you report the Mistrunner issue to the valley lord?” the old patriarch asked.
“No, I didn’t.” Suishen Ranxing shook his head.
“Why not?”
“There’s no conclusion yet. What’s the point of saying anything?” Suishen Ranxing squinted, his gaze becoming distant. “I’ve figured it out.”
“Figured what out?”
Suishen Ranxing stared at the vast astralscape, the stars seeming to ignite and burn in his perspective. With a swell of determination in his chest, he declared, “Strength is the foundation for breaking through all falsehoods. Once one stands at the peak, the world must bow down. Instead of fearing that brat’s continued rise, it’s better to seize the initiative and claim the pinnacle of existence first!”
He was already near the finish line. Why should he fear a boy still in the middle of the Foundation stage? “He’s used one surprising move after another to catch me off guard. Next time, it’ll be my turn to catch him unprepared and deliver a fatal blow to all his flashy tricks!” He suddenly smiled.
The old patriarch observed him in silence for a long time. Suishen Ranxing’s conviction in his success to reach the super zenith was shared only between him and his father. Even someone like Qitian Xiao merely entertained the possibility.
“Father, you’re on my side, aren’t you?” Suishen Ranxing asked, fixing his gaze on the old patriarch.
The old patriarch took a deep breath and nodded.
“Betting on me is the right choice. Don’t waste time on those two cheap whores! I, Suishen Ranxing, will inherit the will of our ancestors with dignity and righteousness. I’ll become the true orthodox successor of Myriadpath Valley and won’t disappoint you. History will remember that you, Suishen Xiao, were a good father!
“Because you chose me!”

The Blissful Union—or the Happy Ball, as Ying Huo preferred to call it—was currently in the wormhole expressway,
Yin-Yang Baleflame burned everywhere, stirring excitement and restlessness as if everyone’s bodies were heating up.
When Tianming took them around the Blissful Union, they had all been stunned. The black and white flames resembled countless candles illuminating the entire astralship. One could casually reach out and absorb them.
“The baleflames here far surpass the stockpile around the Source Progenitor,” Suishen Xiyue remarked with amazement.
“So much wealth! And there’s also a vast number of manna, artifacts... everything you can imagine. We’ve struck it rich!” Suishen Zhao’s eyes gleamed with excitement as he danced with joy.
Other than the area where the astral giant rested, Tianming had shown them the treasures from the Dao paths.
“Traveling the stars in an astralship filled with treasures equivalent to Myriadpath Valley’s full inheritance. That’s the definition of a peerless tycoon.” Suishen Zhao had been utterly dumbfounded in recent days. It felt like he was back on the Prehistoric Path, teaming up with Tianming to effortlessly reap rewards. Back then, he had benefited from the five free kegs of springwater.
“Brother-in-law, can I freely use these baleflames?” Suishen Zhao expectantly asked.
“Of course!” Tianming generously responded.
“That’s amazing! What about my wife?” Suishen Zhao pulled Suishen Shuang closer.
Blushing, Suishen Shuang pinched his ear. “Who’s your wife, you little brat?”
“What brat? My brother-in-law’s younger than me and he’s already married and started his career,” Suishen Zhao retorted. He was still pitifully waiting for Suishen Shuang’s approval. In House Suishen’s tradition, he wasn’t of age enough yet.
“Of course you can use it freely,” Tianming laughed.
“Really? Isn’t this your and Yaoyao’s marital property? She’s so stingy, would she agree?” Suishen Shuang whispered.
“If she disagrees, I’ll deal with her,” Tianming joked.
“Who’s badmouthing me?” Suishen Yao appeared out of nowhere. Now that the Blissful Union had those like Suishen Yao and Ying Huo on board, it was far from peaceful. Just the few of them were always creating lively commotions.
Tianming led them to the location housing the Yin-Yang World’s cultivation techniques and battle arts. “You’ll probably need to absorb more baleflame to cultivate these.”
“Understood.” The trio of Suishen Yao, Suishen Zhao, and Suishen Shuang were already immersed in their explorations.
Tianming turned to Jiguang and Suishen Xiyue. “Please follow me.”
He led them to a deeper chamber. There stood three flat bronze tablets, resembling three beds. Their sizes rivaled the myriadpath steles!
The three bronze beds formed a triangular layout, with the largest one above containing the Yin-Yang Immemorial Art, marked by a Tai Chi Yin-Yang symbol. The two below housed the Sacred Yang Baleflame Art and the Sacred Yin Frostsky Art.
“These battle techniques might surpass even the Greatsun Suishen Art and the Twinmoon Suishen Art. You should try them and expand your arsenal,” Tianming suggested.
The two were already captivated without his explanation.
Suishen Xiyue, fiery by nature, stepped onto the Sacred Yang Baleflame Art bronze bed. Jiguang, being of a calmer disposition, moved toward the Sacred Yin Frostsky Art.
“The treasury has two mid-maniverse-class artifacts that seem to be paired with these techniques,” Tianming explained. “One’s a large saber—the Sacred Yang Baleflame Saber—and the other’s the Sacred Yin Frostsky Sword. Auntie, if you want to use the sword, you might need to adapt your saber arts to sword arts.”
“I’m skilled with swords as well,” Jiguang nodded.
“Mid-maniverse-class artifacts that even have a perfectly suited battle technique? If we can master them, I’ll be able to contend with those three leaders. As for Jiguang, this should neutralize her disadvantage in weaponry, allowing her to defeat them!” Suishen Xiyue marveled.
The inheritance of the Yin-Yang World left everyone who saw it in awe.
“I’m not sure how difficult it’ll be to train in these, especially since we’re from Myriadpath Valley...” Jiguang admitted, still unsure.
“Auntie, it shouldn’t be a big problem. I’ve tried the Yin-Yang Immemorial Art before and it’s somewhat similar to the Midsky Myriadpath Art. Although I didn’t have much time, I did gain some insights because...” Tianming trailed off, hesitating when he noticed Suishen Xiyue’s presence.
“Because you absorbed the baleflame from that astral giant, altering your physique?” Suishen Xiyue faintly smiled at him.
Her smile sent shivers down Tianming’s spine. “Yes...” He lowered his head. Jiguang must have explained everything to her.
As for Jiguang, she didn’t seem to have changed much herself.
It left Tianming feeling incredibly awkward in front of his mother-in-law. It was like he had done something wrong, yet she wasn’t scolding him, which made him even more anxious.
“In that case, I might be at a slight disadvantage,” Suishen Xiyue remarked as she began studying the Sacred Yang Baleflame Art. “Tianming, bring those weapons over. We’ll test if having them makes it easier to get started,” she softly continued.
Her gentleness only made Tianming more flustered. “Understood!” He hurriedly ran off.
“That kid....” Suishen Xiyue watched him leave, shaking her head with a mix of amusement and exasperation.
“Shall we try?” she asked Jiguang.
“Yes.” Jiguang quickly immersed herself in practice.
When Tianming returned with the weapons, he was shocked to see that the light from the bronze beds had already enveloped both of them.
“What the...?” He froze in surprise. It seemed like they were even more suited to these battle techniques than he was. The weapons hadn’t even been delivered yet, but they were already deep into their training. They hadn’t progressed nearly this fast with their Suishen Arts.
“Okay, it makes sense for Auntie to be so compatible, but her too?” It clearly indicated that Suishen Xiyue, having spent so much time near the astral giant, had absorbed a significant amount of balefire over the years. While Tianming and Jiguang had only spent ten years there, she’d been there for over a century.
Tianming handed the weapons to them and left the room. After all, the intense concentration of baleflame during their practice made the atmosphere rather distracting.
Only a dozen days left until we reach the Skydome Mundus. It isn’t enough to train in the Yin-Yang Immemorial Art, so I’ll focus on finding some treasures for Yaoyao and the others! With that thought, he left.
The four of them were two couples, so their interactions were easygoing and unrestrained. However, when he was around Suishen Xiyue, Tianming felt a bit awkward due to the situation with Jiguang. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Once he was gone, the sealed chamber grew quiet. The power of yin and yang intertwined, their glow encompassing the graceful silhouettes of the two women.
