"Is Huang Yuanli about to emerge from seclusion?" Gao Gong muttered to himself, his eyes narrowing as he focused on the Dark Energy Dimension.
As an Energy Life, it wasn't surprising that Ye Li had broken through to Level 4 after a thousand years of tempering in this energy-rich early universe. What surprised Gao Gong was the strength of the 'Dark Dimension' she had repaired.

Gao Gong withdrew his gaze and looked at the sky, a thoughtful expression on his face. The faction was lacking in metal among the five elements and energy among the four systems, so an energy civilization was exactly what they needed. With Ye Li's ascension to Level 4 and her mastery of the Dark Dimension, she could potentially lead the faction in the direction of an energy civilization.
