How Stifling It Was

Lin Yu was not at all surprised by Hagg's attack. Rather, he had been waiting for him to make a move!

A massive silver-white diamond-shaped Dark Energy Shield had long been raised before him—seven of them, in fact. Each one was far more powerful than the shield he had deployed when defending against Hypnos's attack at Chers.

A defensive shield constructed from pure Dark Energy could not be breached even by spatial attacks. Only pure energy had a chance of shattering it.

That was also why the spatial turbulence triggered by the Zero-Point Bomb could not harm Hagg.

Whether it was a Dark Energy Shield or the biological energy shield used by Hagg, once they reached the ninth order, both Biological Civilizations and technological civilizations would return to the simple path of pure energy confrontation.

The reason was simple: after reaching a Ninth Order Civilization, the Dark Energy one could wield was actually a higher-level existence than spatial energy. The same was true for Biological Civilizations.

Of course, humanity was currently only an Eighth Order Civilization. Lin Yu had merely used the Dark Energy Auxiliary Computing Device to reach the level of Dark Energy utilization of a Ninth Order Civilization ahead of time.

Near the Cosmic Current entrance.

After completing its charge, the head that had been raised high suddenly swung toward Lin Yu. The terrifying mass of energy was violently spat from its mouth.

It might not have been as fast as Lin Yu's attack, but it was certainly not slow. In just five
