Beastmaster of the Ages Chapter 2991 - There is Only One Emperor

Chapter 2991 - There is Only One Emperor

Looking at the vast crowd before him, Tianming's voice was low as he said, "The ebons were annihilated by me! The experts of Myriadpath Valley and Intrepidus were slaughtered by me! Millions of divine wonderians were massacred by me! And now, Yi Daiyan has permanently vanished! For the next ten thousand years in the Infinitum Mundus, there will be only one emperor! Tell me, who is he?!"
His statement was far too domineering; it rang like thunder in the ears of every astral god.
"It... it's you!"
"It's you, Lin Feng!"
"It's you, Li Tianming!"
Among the five million astral gods, there were discerning individuals. They immediately understood the information and directly knelt before Tianming, prostrating themselves in panic. Almost five million people followed, chanting, "Emperor Tianming!"
Two-thirds of them directly knelt down, while the remaining third hesitated, still in the process of kneeling. However, there were still a few that refused to kneel.
For Tianming, that was unacceptable. He squinted, and saw the two figures at the forefront: Yushan Taifeng and Yishker Sayedi!
Yishker Sayedi's face turned red and her body shook. However, she grit her teeth and addressed the crowd, "Everyone, the rex mundi may not be absent. It must be an issue with the Infinitum Stele. Just now, the rex mundi almost killed him! Please listen to me...!"
She had just uttered the last word when a sword light flashed and her twelve cosmic charts and body instantly collapsed, turning into fireworks.
Dead! And standing in her original position was Tianming!
The astral gods who hadn't instantly knelt were pale-faced and collapsed to their knees in droves.
"You spineless cowards, you're all just fence-sitters. It seems violence is the only language you recognize!” Tianming sneered. After saying that, he coldly stared at Yushan Taifeng.
Yushan Taifeng's throat felt dry. Yishker Sayedi had been one of Yi Daiyan's right-hand men, like him, and her death had left him completely hopeless. He knew exactly how he had made Tianming and the others uncomfortable before the battle.
Panicked, he trembled and knelt before Tianming, loudly proclaiming, "Yushan Taifeng of the Greenhill Yushan Clan, along with the entire Greenhill Yushan Clan, pays respects to the first rex mundi of the Infinitum Bodhimanda!"
At that moment, all the members of the Greenhill Yushan Clan knelt. And as they did, Yushan Taifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. The outcome was as he had expected. Even if there was an incredible change in the rex mundi's succession, as a pillar of the Infinitum Bodhimanda, he should be fine. After all, everyone needed subordinates.
However, a silver mantis suddenly appeared. Its blades slashed out and swiftly executed the kneeling Yushan Taifeng.
"Ah!!" Yushan Taifeng died on the spot.
All the astral gods were stunned. They backed away in panic and looked at Tianming with fear. It was obvious that the current Tianming, with his cold gaze, was somewhat different from the one rumored before.
Bending the knee still resulted in death!
After the killings, Tianming scanned the area and asked, "Who is the second strongest of the Greenhill Yushan Clan? Step forward!"
For a moment, many people looked at one person, Yushan Zonglei, who was slightly younger than Yushan Taifeng and also one of the pillars of the Greenhill Yushan Clan.
"I... I...." Yushan Zonglei was really scared.
"In the future, the Greenhill Yushan Clan will be under your command," Tianming said.
"Yes! Yushan Zonglei will definitely serve the emperor faithfully, even at the cost of ten thousand deaths!" He hurriedly knelt.
Seeing that, Tianming could only say that using force was more effective than mercy in intimidating fence-sitters.
Yushan Taifeng had spoken of exterminating all living beings under the Sun. Even if he knelt, Tianming wouldn't spare him.
Tianming scanned the crowd again. After Yushan Taifeng's death, all five million astral gods trembled and knelt down, without exception. They couldn’t stop their knees from shaking in fright.
"Just now..." Tianming swept his gaze and finally fixed it on Yushan Zonglei, loudly continuing, "Yushan Taifeng called me the first rex mundi, Yushan Zonglei called me the emperor. Everyone, who's right and who's wrong?"
The five million astral gods trembled even more, afraid to speak.
Tianming heartily laughed, then said, "The dead one was wrong! The living one was right! From now on, in the Infinitum Mundus, there is no more Infinitum Bodhimanda. All the nova source worlds belong to my Tianming Dynasty! From now on, in the Infinitum Mundus, there is no sect—only an empire!"
"Yes!" Yushan Zonglei was a smart man. He shouted the word in his loudest voice, and for a moment, all five million astral gods followed him, completely cowed by Tianming.
With their submission, the entire mundus had surrendered. Through them, Tianming could control the entire mundus, becoming the undisputed emperor. In the Infinitum Mundus, no one could resist his authority.
Tens of millions of metal butterflies flew in from the sky and landed on the astral gods’ heads.
"From now on, they’ll watch over each and every one of you. From now on, you’ll serve them for me! Be mindful of your words and actions in front of them! The dynasty has just been established and there’s still a long way to go. Whoever harbors ill intentions will perish!"
"Yes!" The five million astral gods were close to tears. They had stood firm with Yi Daiyan, but she’d only cared about ‘that man’. She didn't even care about the luxdaemons, so how could she care about the rest of them?
Therefore, for the time being, they weren't trusted by Tianming and were being watched by Yin Chen, which was inevitable. Tianming would certainly use his strong authority to make them obedient. In the future Tianming Dynasty, there could be no room for error; only obedience would bring prosperity!
The Tianming Dynasty, unlike the Infinitum Bodhimanda, would weaken the power of the clans, making the world more systematic. Therefore, the regal clans, peak clans, and other noble families would be weakened, replaced by a fairer system!
With the omnipresent Yin Chen, no one in the realm could stop Tianming from transforming the Infinitum Mundus.
"Control the Infinitum Mundus and my divine majesty shall spread to all worlds! One day, my believers will spread from the Sun to Ebonia, and from Ebonia to every heliacal-class world, making me, Tianming, the only god among countless trillions in the Infinitum Mundus! Of course, in return, I’ll make them all powerful!"
Perhaps influenced by his evil thoughts, his desire for achievements had become more direct and brutal. However, it seemed like there was nothing wrong with that. His system was originally a mutually beneficial system; without it, under repeated calamities, the tens of trillions of lives on the Sun would have long perished with him.
It was a super dramatic change that hadn’t occurred in the Infinitum Mundus for tens of millions of years, and it had begun on the Sun. Many people on Ebonia still didn't know.
But it didn't matter. Five million of the strongest astral gods in the Infinitum Mundus trembled in front of Tianming, and the trillions of lives on the dark star could only follow orders and accept the change.
After all, the weakening of the clans and the new system would be more fair to lower-class people. Everyone would have a better chance and channel for promotion.
"Tell me, what is there in the Infinitum Mundus from now on?!"
Tianming stood under the sky, interrogating the five million astral gods.
"The Tianming Dynasty!"
The chant didn’t cease for a long, long while.
