Xingtetsu: You are not included in Elio's script!

Arriving in the universe, Aglaya's calm voice came from the communicator. Her fingertips shone with a faint golden light, which was her power. "I will help you keep an eye on it. Guiji's energy fluctuations are very unique, like metal, and easy to distinguish."

"Thank you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Cerydra held a long sword in her hand. The sword body was shining with a cold silver-white light. It was the externalization of the power in her body. At this moment, she was gently turning it. The mechanism at the hilt was quietly activated, and the long sword gradually shrank, and finally turned into a silver scepter about 60 centimeters long. She raised her hand and swung a silver-white energy towards the Shattered Star Belt.

The moment the light pattern spread, the meteorite group roaring in front suddenly stopped, like a frozen rainstorm, leaving a straight passage leading to the wreckage.

But just as the energy spread to its maximum range, her body swayed, and she held on to the meteorite fragments beside her to stabilize herself. "It's okay, just a little weak."

Lin Yu mobilized the energy of preservation and abundance, forming a golden and green light shield around the two of them. At the same time, he quietly injected the abundant energy into Cerydela's body, "Don't hold on, my energy can help you relieve it."

Cerydra was stunned for a moment, then nodded gently, the lavender energy fluctuations stabilizing a little. "Thank you."

The wreckage in the center of the star-shattering belt is half of an antimatter battleship, with its hull covered with hideous bullet holes. Dark purple energy is continuously pouring out from the cracks, condensing into a silent figure at the bridge position.

He was wearing a robe embroidered with black patterns and holding a dark purple energy sword in his hand. He also used a sword?

When he saw Lin Yu and the other two approaching, a strange smile appeared on his lips. "Are Omphalos's experimental subjects here too? I heard that you relied on that 'special power' to disrupt the Iron Tomb's plan... But that power... isn't it just a shackle that makes you suffer? Cerydra, have you forgotten the dizziness after forcibly urging the power? Heather, haven't you suffered enough from the pain of your meridians being pierced?"

Cerydra's expression instantly turned cold, and the scepter in her hand suddenly unfolded, turning back into a long, narrow sword. Silver-white energy surged violently through the blade.

"You don't need to remind me that our power is for protection, not for you to mock." As she spoke, she stabbed her sword towards an energy node in the wreckage of the battleship. The moment the silver-white energy was injected, the node exploded and dark purple energy splashed everywhere, but her arm began to tremble slightly.

The backlash of forcibly promoting power has begun to appear.

Lin Yu immediately followed, thirteen strands of destiny energies circulating around his body.

The colors of joy, the black of destruction, the dark gold of greed, the emerald green of abundance, the light blue of memory, the pink and white of purity, the golden light of preservation, the azure of wisdom, the silver and white of hunting, the gray mist of nothingness, the light purple of harmony, the silver-gray of order, the pale gold of balance, thirteen light patterns, under the harmony of pure and beautiful destiny, circled in an orderly manner like star tracks, and the light blade condensed the energy of wisdom and memory, accurately slashing towards another node.

"Gui Ji, you're trying to sow discord, but it's useless!"

Gui Ji's face darkened, he raised his hand and swung the energy sword, and a dark purple light stream instantly penetrated into the cracks of the warship wreckage.

"Useless? Then let me show you what it's like to be consumed by your own power!" His voice suddenly turned frantic. "This 'energy cage' can amplify the negative effects of the power within you. Cerydla, you'll feel even more dizzy than last time. Heather, your meridians will feel like they've been torn apart! Enjoy it!"

The energy nodes lit up at the same time, and dark purple energy beams shot up into the sky, forming a huge energy cage in the star-shattering belt, trapping Lin Yu and the other two inside.

The moment the cage took shape, Cerydra suddenly covered her forehead with her hands, her face pale, "Damn... I feel dizzy..." The fluctuations of the silver-white energy began to become disordered, and a gap appeared in the originally stable gravity field.

Heather groaned, her grip on the sword loosened, and the energy in her body almost dissipated.

"Don't panic!" Lin Yu immediately mobilized the energy of harmony and abundance. The energy of harmony enveloped the two of them, alleviating the pain of energy backlash, while the energy of abundance repaired their damaged meridians. "My harmonious destiny can coordinate your power fluctuations, and abundance can repair the damage. Hold on!"

Cerydra took a deep breath, and the silver-white energy stabilized again. "I can still hold on! Heather, find a chance to attack the weak point of the cage, and I'll use my strength to stabilize the energy flow!"

She raised her hand and swung her sword, and the silver-white energy drew a light track in the cage, slowing down the flow of dark purple energy, but the cold sweat on her forehead became more and more.

Heather clenched her teeth, and the lavender energy condensed to the extreme at the tip of the sword. Although the pain in her meridians made it almost impossible for her to hold the sword, she still aimed at the energy gap in the northwest direction of the cage.

That was the weak point that Aglaya locked through perception.

"Severing Flow!"

The lavender sword light shot out like a meteor, accurately piercing the energy gap.

With a "crack", a huge crack appeared in the light wall of the energy cage, and the dark purple energy began to become disordered.

Seeing this, Gui Ji roared and plunged his energy sword into the wreckage of the battleship. Dark purple energy burst out from his body, "Do you think you can win like this? I have already bound my soul to the battleship. Now, I am the 'battleship' itself!"

At the moment of energy explosion, the wreckage of the warship began to reorganize, and countless dark purple light streams wrapped around Gui Ji, reshaping him into a hundred-meter-tall energy phantom, holding a giant sword condensed from the wreckage of the warship in his hand.

"This 'Ship Spirit' can amplify your backlash! Cerydla, you will lose consciousness! Heather, your meridians will be completely severed. Today, you will all die here!"

The giant sword slashed towards Lin Yu, and dark purple energy surged like a tide. Wherever it passed, Cerydra's silver-white energy began to fluctuate violently. Her body shook even more violently, and she almost fell down.

Heatherin coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the lavender energy dimmed instantly.

“You step back!” Lin Yu immediately stood in front of the two of them. The thirteen destiny energies merged instantly. The glimmer of pure destiny wrapped around the other energies and condensed into a colorful light shield in front of him, blocking the impact of the giant sword.

"Cerydra, use your strength to immobilize his legs! Heather, wait until I have him pinned down, then you deliver the final blow to his chest, where the core is!"

Cerydra gritted her teeth, and all the silver-white energy burst out, shooting towards the phantom's legs. "I...I can do it!"

The phantom's legs were entangled by silver-white energy, and its movements instantly became sluggish.

Heather wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and the lavender energy condensed again. Although the pain in her meridians made her eyes go black, she still raised her sword.

Lin Yu seized this opportunity, and the thirteen destiny energies condensed to the extreme on the light blade.

Preservation and abundance build a solid foundation, intelligence and memory lock the core, hunting and nothingness increase speed, joy and harmony interfere with perception, order and balance stabilize the output, destruction and greed enhance the power, and the colorful light blade slashes towards the chest of the phantom with the momentum of tearing through space.

"Return to Silence! This move, Thirteen Starry Sky Slashes, will make you disappear completely!"

The phantom wanted to swing the giant sword to resist, but was entangled by Cerydra's silver-white energy and could only watch the light blade approaching.

"No! I'm not reconciled!"

With a loud "bang", the colorful light blade hit the core of the phantom, and thirteen life energies burst out instantly, swallowing up the dark purple destructive energy.

The entire star-shattered belt was illuminated. When the light faded, Gui Ji's shadow had completely dissipated, and the wreckage of the battleship turned into countless fragments, slowly drifting in the universe.

A wise man wants to fight in close combat, the result is predictable.

The moment the battle ended, Cerydra could no longer hold on, and her sword fell to the ground. She squatted down, covering her forehead, and her vision went black.

“What… is going on… I feel dizzy… I feel so dizzy…” The silver-white energy completely dissipated, and even the scepter could not be condensed.

Heather sat slumped on the meteorite fragments, her sword stuck at her side. The pain in her body made it difficult for her to even move a finger. "It's finally over..."

Lin Yu immediately stepped forward, and the abundant energy was injected into the two of them at the same time. The emerald light stream enveloped them, relieving the pain of backlash. "Don't talk, recover first."

After a while, when Lin Yu saw that their pain was not so severe, he asked.

"What's the condition of your bodies? There were no problems when we were in Black Rock City."

"I... don't know, it's as if this universe is rejecting us..."

"I'm sure Jin Zhijue and the others feel the same way as I do."

Hearing this, Lin Yu quickly took out the communicator.

"Aglaiya, the issue of Silence has been resolved. Is there anything unusual on your end?"

"Nothing unusual, but..." Aglaya paused, a hint of solemnity in her voice. "I sense an even more powerful energy approaching, colder and more violent than the energy of Silence. Like... a darkness that can devour everything."

...
