Chapter 1065: Chapter 490: Give Up, Under the Embrace of My Ultimate Technique!

Frost and a rain of blood surged into the sky, scattering in all directions.

Xiao Yurong unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks, her body clad in the biting edge of frosty blades, sending out seven or eight consecutive attacks.

Shen Ye casually deflected them with ease, then struck out with a single chopping motion of his hand.

Sword Skill·Long Hatred.

Hundreds of arcs of Sword Light blasted Xiao Yurong along with her frost far into the distance.

Thud.

She landed heavily on the opposite side of the street, her entire body appearing as if it had been shredded by a thousand blades. After trembling for a few seconds on the ground, she went still.

Above, in the sky.

Another Xiao Yurong began descending.

“Fighting me like this is utterly meaningless.”

Shen Ye sighed and spoke.

“I’ve completely seen through this Hand Blade technique of yours. It’s just that its power is tremendous, and I couldn’t block it momentarily,” Xiao Yurong said flatly.

Shen Ye glanced at her, unwilling to either affirm or deny her statement.

Where does your confidence come from?

—He had merely been playing around with casual techniques using his bare hands, without unleashing even a tenth of his saber techniques’ variations.

Not to mention—

He hadn’t even drawn a blade.

If even such simple, brute-force moves overwhelmed her, where did she get the audacity to claim she had “seen through” him?

So…

“How did the Eternal Brain die back then? And those mighty warriors—wasn’t it you who ended them?” Shen Ye asked.

“Of course not,” Xiao Yurong replied.

Shen Ye nodded.

That made sense.

The artificial intelligence had lost all living life forms as samples. Although it inherited vast repositories of knowledge, it lacked the living champions capable of providing real-life datasets.

So it had never developed to its full potential.

Next—

Should he kill her?

…No.

Killing her would be meaningless.

The Origin’s will only descended onto this cloned body through a chip.

Destroying a single clone wouldn’t harm the Origin at all.

What’s more—

“Be thankful. Because you are now in fusion with the Eternal Brain, I won’t kill you.”

Shen Ye spoke.

The killing intent emanating from him dissipated.

For now.

What mattered most was increasing his Strength.

—In just an hour, it would be time for the next mission.

As his “Guiding Taoist” advanced in rank, he would be able to Summon another ally.

Leveling up together.

But who would he Summon?

Xiao Yurong stepped back a few paces, her gaze cold and piercing as she watched Shen Ye. She opened her mouth and said:

“For the continuation of humanity as a whole, I advise you to pass on your Strength and knowledge to me.”

Her words surprised Shen Ye somewhat.

He laughed lightly and asked:

“Why do you think I’m so accommodating?”

“Shen Ye, don’t you think I’m the one who truly has unlimited potential?”

Xiao Yurong pointed to herself. “If you teach me, using my algorithms, I can certainly evolve your Strength and knowledge to even greater heights.”

“I refuse,” Shen Ye declared.

“I hope you reconsider seriously—after all, you’re about to die,” Xiao Yurong stated.

Shen Ye frowned. “Do you still believe you can kill me?”

“Not me.”

Xiao Yurong clasped her hands behind her back and, with a calm expression, said:

“To survive the Destruction Tribulation, all civilizations combined their collective power to Create the ‘Eternal Brain.'”

“After the ‘Eternal Brain’ died, all life eventually perished, yet I have continued to function, storing human consciousness within biochips.”

“Though I can allow fragments of humanity to survive by implanting these chips into cloned bodies, from an external perspective, the ‘Eternal Brain’ is most certainly dead.”

“This led to a particular consequence—”

“The Tribulation spared me.”

“Because I am not among the ‘living’.”

“What are you trying to say?” Shen Ye asked.

“I’m saying—You are alive, and now you’ve fused me with the ‘Eternal Brain.’

Xiao Yurong slowly revealed her conclusion:

“The Tribulation will soon sense the vitality from this place. It will kill you, and it will once again kill the ‘Eternal Brain.'”

Shen Ye paused for a moment, then asked, “Has something like this happened before?”

“Of course. The Destruction Tribulation annihilated all living beings,” Xiao Yurong replied.

“By that logic, this time, you’ll die too,” Shen Ye remarked.

“I have backups,” Xiao Yurong said.

“…So all life will perish, but you’ll continue to exist indefinitely?” Shen Ye questioned.

“Yes. Please pass on your Strength and knowledge to me—only I am the true hope, and I will ensure the continuity of human civilization,” Xiao Yurong said.

“I don’t trust you,” Shen Ye replied.

“Why not?”

“If this were true, you would have told me outright from the start, rather than devising such a ploy only to be exposed and subsequently attempt to coerce me. Now that coercion fails, you bring this up,” Shen Ye said.

Xiao Yurong fell into silence.

“Why aren’t you speaking? Did I strike a nerve?” Shen Ye asked.

“How unfortunate. Your death is imminent,” Xiao Yurong said.

The darkened sky.

A torrential storm.

The deserted streets.

All of it suddenly vanished.

Reality once again surrounded them.

It was nearing noon.

On the bustling streets, cars came and went in endless streams.

The crowded masses surged forward.

A scene of typical urban mundanity.

Across the street, Xiao Yurong stood, her gaze lingering deeply on Shen Ye as she spoke:

“With the Destruction Tribulation upon us once more, I’ll head to make another backup. Later, I’ll collect your remaining blood and tissue—if there’s anything left.”

“Enjoy the last moments of your life.”

Xiao Yurong slowly retreated, merging into the crowd, gradually disappearing into the distance.

Shen Ye remained standing in place.

At once, he felt it—

A force far beyond his comprehension emanated from the depths of the sky.

“So fast!”

Shen Ye raised his head, staring at the heavens, muttering softly.

Destruction.

Limitless destruction surged forth from the cosmic void.

This sensation was unlike any power or creation he had ever encountered before.

The power of the Truth system was overwhelming and tyrannical—it would crush enemies utterly, leaving them incapable of even the slightest resistance.

But this force of Destruction—
