The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 791: Concept of Life

Cainʼs eyes widened as he felt the punch of the gargantuan humanoid become a world-ending meteorite attempting to burst him to pieces. While there was only a chance in one of the Concepts, the outcome was a completely different ability.

Yet soon, coldness and hunger appeared in the eyes of the Scarlet King. He found a way to improve his ability and strengthen the Sun Seed and would fully utilize it. For him, the three-headed gargantuan humanoid was nothing more than food.

”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!”

Explosion after explosion echoed across the starry void. The blows from the gargantuan humanoid were faster and stronger but could no longer increase the weight of the Sun Seed, allowing it to move across the battlefield.

Cain constantly dodged the blows while firing Solar Rupture Beams, cutting pieces of flesh from the three-headed gargantuan humanoid and devouring it. The enemy attempted to use meteoric fists and weight punches, but none worked.

Gradually, the three-headed Alter-Ego became weaker as the Sun Seed kept growing more powerful.

It didnʼt take long for the gargantuan humanoid to lose so much energy that it could no longer regenerate the missing pieces. The Sun Seed just kept cutting it to pieces and devouring it until there was nothing left.

Cainʼs face was pure ecstasy. Although the Tower of Concepts took back most of the three-headed gargantuan humanoid, he still managed to assimilate roughly 17% of it. Given this was a very powerful Third Realm Alter Ego, the Sun Seed gained immensely high energy and strength, allowing it to grow nearly a third in size!

Cain smiled as he waited for the next Alter-Ego to appear, yet a solemn expression appeared on his face.

The new Alter-Ego manifested as a massive dragon, its scales shimmering with the dark hues of the deepest oceans and the shadowy essence of the void, a fusion of aquatic grace and draconic majesty, with wings that spanned like dark storm clouds and eyes that glowed with the depth of the abyss.

As Cain focused on it and attempted to understand the core concepts that generated such a monstrous entity, he felt the overwhelming power of natural disasters combined with the inevitable fate that awaits all living beings.

The Scarlet King couldnʼt help but wonder what sort of person would generate an Alter-Ego like that. They would need to see themselves from the bottom of their souls as a power of indiscriminate death and destruction, crushing everything equally without regard for age or race.

The Alter-Ego had barely appeared when it focused its cold eyes on the Sun Seed. Waving its majestic wings, it summoned a colossal wave, a wall of water infused with the essence of death, leaving a trail of silence in its wake.

Cainʼs eyes narrowed as he felt in that wave not only physical power capable of utter devastation but also the ability to drain the life force of anything caught in its path. Immediately, he channeled the power of the Sun Seed, generating a Solar Rupture Beam that divided the wall of water in half.

However, before he could relax, the two halves of the wave fused behind him and lunged toward the Sun Seed once more. Immediately, Cain fired another Solar Rupture Beam, once again dividing the wave, but this time, it just fused back above him before falling with overwhelming power.

The Sun Seed continued to split the wave in half whenever it came close to avoid it from overwhelming him, but the wall of water would fuse back in a different position and continue striking.

Cain clenched his teeth as he saw the attackʼs power and turned toward the Alter-Ego. The creature kept waving its wings, continuously channeling energy into the ability while controlling it, ensuring it left no opening for the Sun Seed.

ʼIt controls only two Concepts, yet the power it can unleash is much greater than the three-headed gargantuan humanoid, and its abilities are much more refined. When it comes to Concepts, more doesnʼt mean better.ʼ

A sharp light appeared in Cainʼs eyes as he kept controlling the Sun Seed to fight the waves, but if things carried on like this, it was just a matter of time before he was defeated after all the Solar Rupture Beam consumed a lot of energy. It was fine if he could replenish it, but if not, then he would drain his energy pool in minutes at this rate.

ʼI need an ability that can exert a wide range and take care of this wave of death.ʼ

Cain knew the answer to his problem, but he needed more than that to win. The Sundering Concept and the Concept of Power were very strong, but he needed something else, and his mind went to the Gluttony Concept and Radiance of Life.

A sharp light appeared in Cainʼs eyes as he took a deep breath. The next second, the Sun Seed began to glow with a bright golden light as it generated a massive devouring force that started to draw pieces of the wave of death that continuously attempted to drown him.

Pain appeared in Cainʼs eyes as the Sun Seed consumed that wave of death, as its energy was extremely harmful. However, the power of life allowed him to stabilize the damage.

The healing force input neutralized the damage caused by the rotting energy. Though the devouring did not improve his energy pool, it slowly consumed pieces of the dark wave.

The draconic Alter-Ego saw how the Sun Seed kept firing Solar Rupture Beams to stop the dark wave from engulfing it while devouring pieces. However, it only showed a cold smile since it only delayed its end; after all, it could not keep using the Solar Rupture Beam for long.

Cain could see the smile on the dragon but did not lose focus and carried on, pushing the power of the Gluttony Concept forward as he attempted to summon the core of Radiance of Life, the Concept of Life.
