Chapter 1598: Chapter 1598

The starry sky beast, torn in half, wailed in the void as its blood, thick like molten lava, sprayed incessantly, forming a bizarre scene. However, its vitality was astonishingly tenacious. Follow current novᴇls on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⁂𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⁂𝕟𝕖𝕥

For the time being, this creature wouldn’t die; it could only struggle endlessly in the void.

Du You flew over, touched it with his hand, and then shook his head. "This thing has no value whatsoever."

Indeed, for this world, the beast had high value, but for Du You, it was worthless. This was because it did not contain law power, only barely meeting individual strength standards.

It could serve as auxiliary material for carrying law power, but if used directly as a primary material, it was simply unusable.

Du You’s personal space wasn’t large enough to hold such a colossal object, let alone the rest here as well. Since it couldn’t be taken along, Du You didn’t waste any further time.

A shadow spirit light orb directly pierced through the starry sky beast’s inner cavity, killing it instantly.

"As expected, nothing good dropped from it. After all, it’s just a beast—what treasures could it possibly have?"

Du You shook his head and turned his gaze toward the other starry sky transformed beasts.

Meanwhile, this scene was witnessed by the other side. The brutality of it left them breathless—when had a starry sky beast ever been split in two ? It was nothing short of ferocious.

"No, we can’t let that guy approach! Launch a full-scale attack; destroy that damned monster at all costs!"

"The attack is being prepared, projected to fire in thirty minutes."

"Speed it up! Operate at full capacity—we don’t have that much time. Damn mutant entity... What on earth are this guy’s abilities, and why are there so many?" The commander stumbled over his words frantically.

The two previously encountered tier-seven entities had been thoroughly analyzed multiple times, and yet their abilities were only a few, all interconnected in some way.

But Du You’s abilities were overwhelming and seemingly random—no logic, no pattern, leaving them utterly baffled.

It was somewhat understandable, though—they were evaluating Professionals using this world’s perspective, assuming they were mere superpowered beings. Even the descendants of this world’s Professionals believed themselves to be Superpower Men. After so many years of study, they had rationalized explanations using their crude understanding.

Just as their preparations had reached their peak, two sisters finally arrived. "Heh, attempting an attack now? A little late, don’t you think? Fortunately, we arrived just in time," Lin Yushi sneered, her eyes surveying the surroundings.

They were too small for anyone to sense them in the absence of outward energy emissions.

"The situation’s better than expected. As anticipated, these fools avoided activating their defensive barriers to conserve energy. Let’s act quickly before they turn them on. Ignore the two ’monkey-faced’ ones that already have barriers active," she instructed decisively.

Indeed, there were a total of eight interstellar fortresses in this patch of starry sky, but only two had activated their defensive barriers.

Under normal circumstances, interstellar fortresses don’t activate such barriers unless directly facing enemies. They typically rely on a passive, ordinary shield since full-power barriers cause massive energy consumption, far beyond most owners’ ability to sustain indefinitely.

The two sisters found an optimal attack spot, then launched their assault.

Arrows flew out one after the other, striking six interstellar fortresses before anyone had time to react. Three of them were pierced straight through by three arrows, rupturing their planetary cores instantly.

Next came violent energy surges that radiated outward, triggering havoc across the entire interstellar fortress.

The collapse wasn’t instant—the people inside had a brief window of panic ahead of them.

Meanwhile, on the other side, bolts of lightning rained down in rapid succession. On average, three bolts struck a single point simultaneously, penetrating deeply into the fortresses. The pace wasn’t much slower than the three arrow strikes.

In mere moments, the six interstellar fortresses without barriers began crumbling. Ironically, their preparations for a tier-seven evaluation weapon triggered an uncontrollable energy discharge, hastening their fall.

"Damn it! Why are they here?! Weren’t they supposed to be over there?"

They had assumed the two sisters would ambush Du You, considering he was alone against twenty starry sky transformed beasts. Yet unexpectedly, Du You took them on solo, while the sisters had flanked their position unnoticed.

To save energy, no one had anticipated danger surrounding the interstellar fortresses—but now six were utterly dismantled, with no hope of repair.

Once breached, interstellar fortresses became extraordinarily fragile, especially without their defensive barriers activated.

This was apparent to the sisters—if a sneak attack succeeded, interstellar fortresses were among the easiest tier-sevens to kill.

"Damn it! Redirect the artillery toward those two immediately!" The commander’s terror was palpable. His own interstellar fortress had its defenses active, but he knew all too well its structural flaws.

"Impossible—their targets are too small, far too nimble. We can hardly lock onto them properly."

"Shut up! Fortify the defensive barrier—maximum power! I said maximum power!" Another voice bellowed in alarm.

At this point, all fortresses—those salvageable or not—descended into chaos. Two enormous threats now loomed before them, having swiftly obliterated six fortresses—a catastrophic loss.

The tide of the battle had already turned. Du You was securing full control of this battleground. Once the fight concluded, he would emerge as the undisputed ruler of this starry sky, unchallenged by anyone.

Even the Star Ring Alliance likely wouldn’t send additional interstellar fortresses his way.

The capabilities Du You displayed were nothing short of interstellar fortress killers.

Du You nodded toward the black dragon. Since the materials before him were useless, destruction was the logical option. The black dragon moved swiftly, darting into the cluster of starry sky beasts, its jaws opening wide as Dark Devour erupted.

A pitch-black vortex appeared, generating an immense gravitational pull. The starry sky beasts—already gravely injured—couldn’t resist and were drawn in. In the void, a surreal scene unfolded, resembling a snake devouring an elephant. Pity that no one had the presence of mind to appreciate the spectacle now.
