Downwards!
Under the buff of fused energy, Kyle seemed to transform into a streak of light. The soil, roots, rocks, and even hard metallic minerals beneath the surface of Ego's planet all separated and bounced aside effortlessly as he flew deeper.
One kilometer, ten kilometers, twenty kilometers...
Although it was a vast and majestic life-bearing planet, it now appeared fragile and paper-thin before Kyle.
This was only natural, as the power of the Fire God, after being infused with the energy of the Space Stone, had elevated his powers to almost top ranking in the universe. This power was unstoppable by ordinary energy or matter.
Facing this "mindless home invasion" style of attack, Ego, as the Celestial embodiment of the planet, finally felt a bit panicked. He had to withdraw his consciousness from the garden palace and focus on dealing with the powerful enemy that had approached.
"Hmm?"
As Kyle clenched his fist and flew Superman-style, piercing through a thick layer of hard ground, he found that thirty kilometers beneath the surface was unexpectedly hollow!
Many fluorescent plants came into view. These roots and vines formed thin tubes, much like the capillaries in a human body, brimming with abundant life force and formidable power.
Kyle hovered in this area, and with his intelligent wristwatch Vis blinked a green light, murmuring softly, "Is this the inside of a Celestial? It's... quite disgusting! There are some radiation and lifeform signals interwoven here."
Even before Kyle could speak, a faint black mist appeared on his body, forming a mouth and nose, which spoke, "Master, let me go down to investigate."
"Go ahead." Kyle nodded slightly, and the Pride Spirit immediately left his body, blowing like a gust of wind and disappearing into the shadows of the underground vegetation.
Compared to the other seven sins, Pride seemed to be the most practical. Although its temperament was cold and aloof, it was diligent and brisk in its actions. Although it couldn't amplify Kyle's power, as a bodiless spirit, it made a decent reconnaissance agent.
"Master, there's something over there."
Vis, not to be outdone, fully utilized its radio wave detection capabilities and gestured towards a nearby area not far ahead.
Kyle flew over in that direction and saw a corner of the underground fault, covered with moss and greenery, beneath which lay a pile of bone fragments from different lifeforms.
Vis projected a blue light screen, scanned the bones, and reported, "Boss, from these bones, I detect genes similar to those of this planet. They are likely indigenous inhabitants or... descendants bred by the Celestial Ego's incarnations."
"It's probably the latter. With Ego's inhumane and cruel nature, he probably wouldn't allow indigenous lifeforms to evolve on his own body. I just didn't expect him to actually incarnate into different races and engage in crossbreeding, and then kill off those who didn't inherit the Celestial power."
Kyle shook his head and spoke with an indifferent expression on his face. This behavior was almost akin to nature itself, devoid of any emotions possessed by a lifeform.
Ego, the planet with self-awareness, who sought to devour the universe, was simply a hundred times more ruthless and inhumane than Thanos.
"Beep Beep Beep!"
Suddenly, Vis sounded an alarm. "Boss, there's an extremely massive consciousness and energy entity approaching us!"
"I've already noticed. It seems that when you mention the enemy, the enemy arrives." Kyle glanced sideways and saw a gigantic energy sphere, as bright as daylight, speeding towards them from the depths of the underground fault space.
The energy sphere swept over the greenery, absorbing the overflowing energy from the underground, growing larger and larger until it completely obscured the view ahead.
"A showdown of energies?"
Kyle raised his eyebrows coldly and did not dodge the coming energy sphere. He held out his left palm in front of him, and as soon as he made this motion, the energy sphere crashed down onto his palm.
The blinding daylight-like giant energy sphere abruptly came to a halt. Facing it head-on was the dazzling starlight in Kyle's hand, infused with cosmic energy from the Space Stone!
"Sizzle..."
The two extreme and terrifying energies clashed and confronted each other. The residual waves of their power that spilled over pulverized the surrounding soil and turned the blinking fluorescent greenery into ashes!
"How is this possible!?"
Deeper beneath the surface of the planet, a giant human face formed by thoughts and energy structures appeared more incredulous and horrified as it watched the young human youth who had directly intercepted the energy sphere.
Because...
That was no ordinary energy entity; it was composed purely of Celestial power, comparable to the infinite might of nature. With a single strike, it could make even planets tremble. For millions of years, no lifeform on Ego's planet had faced such a devastating Celestial onslaught.
But how could Ego know that a part of Kyle's fused energy originated from one of the six cosmic gems, containing the mysteries of the universe? It could break through even the top-tier technological defenses of the Nova Corps and elude the Supreme Intellect of the Kree!
"Get lost!" Kyle snapped, no longer limiting himself to just his left palm. Even his arms, body, and even his hair were all intertwined with the dazzling light of energy.
Double Star Form!
In an instant, the balance between the two energies was shattered. Kyle's left hand plunged deep into the energy sphere. As his arm and wrist twisted, the spherical energy mass immediately twisted into a spiral shape, then burst open like an overinflated balloon.
Buzz!!!
The tidal wave of Celestial energy burst forth, sweeping in all directions, crushing everything within a radius of kilometers from the inside out.
In the dazzling light of Kyle's Double Star Form, his arms were crossed in front of him, rolling and tumbling in the waves of energy.
Shhh...
Kyle faintly saw another energy sphere flying towards him at high speed. Without much thought, he swiftly kicked out.
However, before the kick could connect solidly with the energy sphere, the energy mass automatically caved in and split apart, forming a giant mouth that firmly bit down on Kyle's left foot.
"Intruder, I will turn you into fertilizer for this planet!" At the same time, a powerful thought roared, piercing through Kyle's mind.
"Ego, damn you! You almost took away something important from me!" Kyle's tone was icy cold as he raised his fist wrapped in dazzling light. With a punch accompanied by a beam of red light, he directly blasted the energy mass that had bitten his foot in half.
"I don't even know you!" Ego roared in anger.
"That doesn't matter. What matters is that you're about to die by my hand!"
Kyle didn't care about strategies, tactics, or methods anymore. He didn't bother to think too much. Instead, he allowed his anger to take over and the boiling blood of his battle spirit, fully unleashing his surging fused energy.
Every inch of his muscles, akin to Iron, amplified with full strength, as he engaged in a fierce battle with Ego's powerful energy construct!
For a moment, the underground currents surged, and as the center of the storm, the shockwaves radiated outwards, felt even dozens of kilometers away.
Meanwhile, beneath the garden palace...
Logan leaned against the trembling wall as the cave began to collapse and cave in. It seemed he would be buried alive when suddenly a hand landed on his shoulder.
"Logan, come on, let's get out of this place!"
It was Quill, returning to rescue him. Using all his strength to wield the power of the Celestial, he supported the weakened Logan and carved a path to escape.
