Chapter 3000 – Planning Ahead

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

“Even if it weren’t for the red dust problem, I might still go to that gathering place of myriad paths to surpass myself and elevate my limits through battles!” Otherwise, where would Tianming find opponents in the Infinitum Mundus?

“Fortunately, there have been some recent changes in my combat path. With my lifebound beasts entering my body and the decapath era godswords entering the Grand-Orient Sword, I don’t look as eye-catching as before, making it easier to keep a low profile. I believe that in Myriadpath Valley, which is filled with geniuses, I won’t stand out too much. Besides, all the outsiders who know I can use the power of the people are basically dead except for Li Fan.”

Only Li Fan could return to Myriadpath Valley through the stareye, while the wonderians were also currently cut off from their main race. So now, Tianming could enter Myriadpath Valley using an ordinary identity.

Li Fan had already arranged his identity for him. He once went to a mundus without a stareye. It was very far from the Infinitum Mundus, so it wouldn’t be dragged into any investigations.

Greenhaze Mundus, Li Tianming! That was his new identity.

To monopolize the treasures of the Sun, Mister Taihe had only cooperated with Intrepidus. No one inside Myriadpath Valley knew.

“A new battlefield, a new journey. It’ll definitely be extremely dangerous. Without any backing, I must be prepared to keep myself safe.” Thus, he couldn’t bring the Infinitum Stele. Tianming had experienced the sin of being rich too many times.

Apart from handling the Infinitum Stele, there was also the Ancestral Swordheart. Xiaodao, Lin Xiao, and a few others had originally hoped that Tianming would merge with the Ancestral Swordheart. But after pondering for a while, he ultimately refused.

“Myriadpath Valley is too far. If I die there, the Ancestral Swordheart will never come back. Moreover, the symbolic significance of the Ancestral Swordheart is greater to me than its actual function. I can rely on the Grand-Orient Sword to integrate with the Infinitum Stele in the future. But if I integrate with the Ancestral Swordheart, at most, it’ll allow me to cultivate the last two moves of the spacetime sword art…. Myriadpath Valley probably has battle techniques that are beyond the infinitum-class and without Ling’er, I lack spacetime talent.”

Thus, Tianming decided to let Xiaodao inherit the Ancestral Swordheart. After all, Xiaodao was still very young.

Plus, he had a premonition that his journey wouldn’t be easy.

Lin Xiao and others were convinced; the Ancestral Swordheart was condensed from the efforts of countless predecessors, and it was indeed a spiritual symbol.

Tianming also didn’t have time to cultivate the Grandvoid Compendium and Xiaozhi Sword Art, which were relatively challenging for him. In comparison, he had cultivated the sixth attack of the Imperator’s Mural, with three remaining. One of them was the Death Imperatoris cultivated by Xiaodao, which wasn’t suitable for Tianming.

Tianming spent a few days memorizing the battle arts of the two remaining murals. He planned to slowly refine them when he arrived in Myriadpath Valley. The nine Imperator’s Murals represented nine types of orders. Except for the Death Imperatoris, the other eight orders were almost in line with his current orders.

“Even if I could only bring out the fusion of eight swords, it should be pretty good,” Tianming thought.

The Imperator’s Murals came from the Gladean Ruins. And speaking of the Gladean Ruins, there was still a last secret chamber that had not been opened. Wudi gave it a shot before Tianming left for Myriadpath Valley, but failed.

This secret chamber was much bigger than the other secret chambers and was also very ornate. It was the center of the entire Gladen Ruins and its doors were carved with the images of many flameyellow divinities, including the nine flameyellow imperators.

“What lies behind this door can’t be simple,” Tianming said.

“There’s no choice! I’ll slowly absorb the Flameyellow Bloodsoul. Now only astral gods can absorb it, and everybody else is just enjoying life the rest of the time. Absorbing it is useless,” Wudi sighed.

“To build a glorious mundus is a daunting task,” lamented Tianming.

“That’s right! It’s really tough,” Xiaodao sighed as well.

“Oh, by the way,” Tianming pondered for a moment, then continued, “with the current havoc of the red dust and the inability to develop the Sun, it’s better to try relocating everyone to the Sky Palace Formation.”

“What’re you planning?” Xiaodao asked.

“The red dust is even worse on Ebonia. The lives there have nothing to do and don’t complain. They seem to be daydreaming all the time. In that case, it’s better to take advantage of the opportunity and relocate them to the Sun,” Tianming thought carefully and made a decision.

“You want to swallow Ebonia? Didn’t you say before that there’s no need to do that?” Xiaodao asked.

Tianming grit his teeth and said, “I’m not sure whether or not this trip to Myriadpath Valley will bring disaster to the Infinitum Mundus. There’s more powerful people there than Mister Taihe. If I accidentally provoke them, I think… an infinitum-class Sun would be stronger than the current binary stars. And it would be even better if it could cause the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb to undergo another transformation.”

“Relocating billions of people, relics, properties, and legacies… it’ll be a huge undertaking,” Wudi said, feeling a headache coming on.

“I know. Anyway, let’s try relocating first and see if it’s feasible. I don’t intend to directly swallow Ebonia. We still need to see the specific situation. What I mean is… since everyone’s quite content and there’s no complaints, let’s move first, just in case! Otherwise, if something really does happen, it’ll be too late to relocate,” Tianming said.

“That’s true. If there were no red dust, establishing the Tianming Empire and destroying their homeworld wouldn’t have been easy. But now we have the perfect opportunity.” Xiaodao nodded in agreement.

Tianming allowed them to act exactly because it was an opportunity. “Step by step. No need to rush,” he said.

“Understood. It’s necessary to plan ahead,” Xiaodao said.

In addition, Tianming had also been thinking about what else he hadn’t properly arranged.

He had made arrangements for the Infinitum Stele and the Ancestral Swordheart. He also possessed the fortuna-class Bloodweaver. It was excellent, but after losing the power of the masses, Tianming couldn’t currently control it and could only keep it by his side. He regretted not immediately subduing it.

Before leaving, Tianming also went to the Xenoabyss! He had taken quite a few of Zi Zhen’s order fragments, but only now did he have the time to go and see her. In the past few days, he had experienced great ups and downs in life, and adrenaline was still coursing through his veins.

“Tell me, why are you and Mister Taihe so concerned about Zi Zhen?” Tianming asked Li Fan.

“She’s a sacredfiend skyghoul, which is the supreme innate talent of our skyghoul race! Moreover, she’s still immature. If we can deprive her of her aptitude and remove her hexapath eyes, perhaps we could integrate them into ourselves and ascend to the heavens in one step,” Li Fan straightforwardly said.

No wonder Mister Taihe only wanted the Infinitum Stele and Zi Zhen. The value of those two treasures was indeed very high.
