Chapter 574: . He is destined to take everything from you, why do you still risk your life for him?

Book 574. He is destined to take everything from you, why would you still die for him?

“Thousand Stars Rending the Void!”

Ornon growled low, and around him, surging green energy transformed into a dazzling star ring, bursting forth with sudden violence. Lin

It was as if a thousand stars exploded simultaneously in the void.

A terrifying tide of energy swept through everything nearby, engulfing the Level 13 Commander Beast before him and all around it.

Everyone kept far away from Ornon, not daring to approach at all.

When Ornon Tuling gasped for breath, recovering some of his strength, and saw the scene before him, his face turned grim once more.

There, after the dissipating energy tide, the body of the Level 13 Commander Beast was revealed.

This massive monster, covered in arthropod limbs, though battered and wounded, was healing its injuries at an astonishing speed.

In just a few breaths, it fully recovered as if it had never been harmed.

“Damn it!”

Ornon Tuling cursed under his breath, his expression sour.

He had already pushed his own strength and the potential of his immortal-grade super lifeform constitution to a certain limit, yet his attacks

seemed to barely tickle the Level 13 Commander Beast.

In truth, Ornon Tuling could already be proud of himself.

To force a Level 13 Commander Beast to this extent with a Level 12 body, while suffering no real damage apart from significant energy depletion—

across the Hundred Star Regions, perhaps only he could achieve this.

But—

Ornon Tuling was not satisfied!

Because he was Ornon Tuling!

The bearer of an immortal-grade bloodline, the greatest glory in the history of the Tuling family, the foremost talent in the Hundred Star Regions, a super genius who might one day ascend to become a Level 15 System Lord.

How could he merely be content with the result of standing against a Level 13 without defeat?!

No.

He could do far better!

Let the strong of the entire Hundred Star Regions battlefield base be shocked once more, let their gazes shift away from that damnable bastard who comprehended over forty rules at Level 11, and return to him!

“Burn! Burn for me! Power of the immortal-grade bloodline!”

Ornon Tuling roared, the intricate and beautiful patterns on his body growing brighter and more dazzling.

He madly pushed himself, venting his attacks wildly against the Level 13 beast before him.

But no matter how hard he tried, a vast chasm always lay between him and his foe.

He simply could not, in any real sense, harm it.

Just as Ornon Tuling, filled with bitterness, was gradually falling into madness,

suddenly—

a strange voice sounded in his ear.

“You… wish… to possess greater power?”

“Who?!”

Ornon Tuling snapped back to alertness, scanning around warily.

“Who is speaking to me?!”

“Look up.”

The strange voice continued.

Ornon Tuling quickly looked up, and the whole man was stunned.

There, in the blue sky, a pair of enormous eyes were quietly watching him.

Those eyes were as vast, boundless, serene, and deep as the starry heavens.

With just one glance, Ornon Tuling’s mind was nearly drawn into them.

“Do you want to grow stronger?

That is too simple.

Are forty-three rules many? I can let you comprehend hundreds, thousands in an instant.

You wish to advance to Level 13?

Choose any law you desire to master.

Do you find the potential of your bloodline still too low?

How about a monarch-grade bloodline?”

The voice seduced Ornon Tuling’s mind with an utterly tempting tone.

“If you wish, I can make you, Ornon Tuling, the most extraordinary genius of the entire Celestial Serpent Galaxy!

All you need to do—

is a small favor for me.”

Ornon Tuling’s mind wavered for a moment under the beautiful vision painted by the other.

But he quickly recovered, sneering coldly.

“Who are you? The Lord of Oblivion?

Do you take me, Ornon Tuling, for some trash that can be easily deceived?

Get lost!

You vermin of the dark side!”

Ornon Tuling roared, unleashing thousands of green lightning bolts at the eyes in the sky.

His attack shattered the giant eyes in the blue firmament into pieces.

The voice in his ear seemed to become intermittent, gradually fading away.

The voice, with a tone full of regret, sighed softly in Ornon Tuling’s ear.

“It really was just a small matter.

All you had to do was quietly lure the little darling you’re fighting into the shadows."

What a simple thing to do, yet the reward would be billions of times greater.

"He is clearly a rival who is about to strip you of all your glory, yet you would disregard your own life to protect him like this.

It is truly beyond comprehension."

Aunon had initially dismissed the strange voice with utter disdain.

As once the most brilliant genius of the Hundred Grand Battlezones, having spent so much time in the Alien Space Battlefield, he had experienced similar temptations

more times than he could count.

...Craving Flowers...

He had long since become immune to all threats and inducements arising from the dark side.

He, Aunon Turing, possessed a strength that was found not merely in his flesh and physique, but in an unparalleled, indestructible, and mighty will!

Yet the final words uttered by the strange voice before its departure seemed, in a single instant, to strike his heart with flawless precision.

Aunon Turing’s body shuddered with a microscopic, barely perceptible tremor.

He abruptly tore himself free from the illusion of the Lord of Oblivion, returning once more to reality.

It was still the same chaotic and tumultuous battlefield, and before his eyes still loomed that terrifying Level 13 Commander Beast.

As Aunon Turing cast his gaze around, his eyes suddenly arrested upon a massive, silvery cocoon of light not far from where he stood.

Unwittingly, had the clash between himself and the Level 13 Commander Beast shifted all the way over here?

Aunon Turing looked toward the others in his vicinity.

The Grand Star Chief was locked in combat with the Lord of Oblivion within an unknown space, the three wielders of the Skeletal Pole Blade each had their own opponents, and the remaining powerhouses were all embroiled in bitter, fierce battles.

It seemed that not many people were paying specific attention to his side of the field.

If...

If I push the battlefield just a little further in that direction.

When the time comes, and the Level 13 Commander Beast, under the promptings of the Lord of Oblivion, turns instead to assault the cocoon of light, surely I cannot be blamed?

After all, I am merely Level 12; I simply lack the capacity to hold it back.

A single thought quietly took root within Aunon Turing’s heart.

And once conceived, it spread with the sudden velocity of a wildfire across the starry expanse, burning fiercely and uncontrollably.

"Indeed, there is at least one thing the Lord of Oblivion said that is not wrong.

Why on earth should I risk life and limb to shield a fellow who is likely to snatch away the glory that originally belonged to me?!"

A flash of ferocity crossed Aunon Turing’s face, as though he had settled upon a grim resolve.

With a sudden, low roar, he unleashed a series of dazzling offensives against the Level 13 Commander Beast before him, and then, leaving no trace of his intent, quietly shifted his body a great distance toward the location of the silver cocoon of light.

And that Level 13 Commander Beast seemed to share a perfect, unspoken understanding with him.

The moment the cocoon of light fell within a certain radius of their engagement, the Level 13 Commander Beast abruptly changed direction, abandoning Aunon Turing to lung fiercely toward the silvery cocoon.

The savage, frenzied aura that erupted in that fleeting instant, coupled with the heavy pressure of the Laws, caused the hairs all over Aunon Turing’s body to stand on end.

A sudden, terrifying realization struck him.

Previously, this Level 13 Commander Beast had merely been toying with him all along.

The adversary, in truth,

had been waiting all this time for this exact moment to arrive! Mountain
