Chapter 567 - 239: The Left Side Always Loses a Beam Struggle! Godlike

BOOM—!!!

The deafening explosion made the entire factory floor tremble violently.

Smoke and dust filled the air.

But as the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, a data fluctuation akin to "confusion" appeared for the first time on the two Intelligent Mechanisms’ mirror-like faces.

At the heart of the explosion, Lin Ye still hovered silently in place, completely unharmed.

A massive, hexagonal energy shield, as black as ink and seemingly capable of devouring all light, protected him securely within.

However, the once-solid shield had now dimmed considerably, and several distinct cracks had even appeared on its surface.

"Have your kin fall back."

Lin Ye ordered Ah Qiang without turning his head.

Ah Qiang understood immediately, and his remaining minions quickly retreated.

The battle to come was no longer one they could interfere in.

"Analysis module... error."

"Target has used our race’s Class-A authorized ability... Energy Shield."

The internal computing units of the two Intelligent Mechanisms seemed to enter a temporary overload. They could not comprehend the unbelievable situation before them.

But cold combat instincts soon overrode their confusion.

They raised their arms once more.

This time, however, Lin Ye did not remain on the defensive.

He slowly raised both hands. With palms facing forward, two clusters of eerie blue energy orbs materialized in them as well!

BOOM! BOOM!

Four beams of energy collided violently in mid-air! A frenzied shockwave of energy exploded outward in a ring, tearing all the surrounding mechanical arms and production lines to shreds!

The figures of the two Intelligent Mechanisms wavered slightly in the blast. The data streams on their faces flickered at an unprecedented, frantic speed.

’Impossible!’

’This human’s energy output is actually on par with ours!’

Without a moment’s hesitation, the two Intelligent Mechanisms flashed through the air, converging at near-teleportation speed.

The liquid metal on their bodies squirmed and merged as if alive, finally transforming into a terrifying, pitch-black cannon muzzle over three meters in diameter!

"Annihilation Cannon... activating."

"Power... full!"

An aura of destruction so potent it would make even a Divine Realm expert’s heart pound with fear began to gather frantically!

Lin Ye felt a mortal threat.

’If I take this blast head-on, even if it doesn’t kill me, I’ll be severely wounded.’

But his face showed no trace of panic.

VMMMM—!

Just as the Annihilation Cannon was about to fire, a pillar of deathly light, wreathed in black soul-fire, shot out from behind Lin Ye, striking the fused Intelligent Mechanisms with precision!

It was Ah Qiang!

He had seized the opportunity from a distance to unleash his strongest attack!

The pillar of death didn’t stop the Annihilation Cannon from charging, but it did cause the gathering energy to stagnate for a ten-thousandth of a second.

And that instant was enough!

"So, you want a beam struggle, huh?"

Lin Ye grinned, pressing his wrists together and cupping his hands at his hip in a perfect Turtle Style Energy Wave stance.

"Let’s make it a good one!"

In that moment, the Spiritual Power in his Sea of Consciousness surged forth like a flood bursting through a dam!

In a mere instant, he had consumed a full thirty percent!

To put that in perspective, with his current total Spiritual Power, that thirty percent was two to three times more than all the Spiritual Power he had during the college entrance exams!

An energy far more terrifying and vast than the opposing Annihilation Cannon’s gathered frantically between his palms!

The light was so brilliant it made the entire pitch-black underground space as bright as day!

The cannon of light hadn’t even been fired, yet the shockwave from its mere formation was enough to shatter all the remaining reinforced glass in the vast factory into dust!

BOOM—!!!

Two cannons of light, equally thick and containing the same ultimate destructive power, blasted forth simultaneously, separated by a ten-thousandth of a second!

Like two suns flying in reverse, they smashed into each other in mid-air!

There was no sound.

Because at the instant of impact, sound itself was utterly annihilated by the extreme energy.

A white sphere of light, centered on the point of impact, expanded silently and rapidly!

Wherever it passed, whether it was hard alloy walls or thick layers of the earth’s crust, everything was instantly disintegrated and vaporized by the pure energy!

Everything within a radius of several kilometers completely collapsed, shattered, and vanished into nothingness under this world-destroying blow!

The world-destroying blow completely erased all matter within a radius of several kilometers, forming a massive, smooth, spherical cavity.

The frenzied aftershock of energy even surged back up the tunnel Lin Ye had blasted on his way in, tearing through the surface and triggering a massive earthquake in the upper levels of the Painful Labyrinth.

Amidst this chaos, five figures clad in black flight-capable Exoskeleton Armor, like nimble falcons, precisely navigated the crumbling tunnels. They followed the crude path Lin Ye had left behind and successfully entered the ruins.

"So this is the inside of the Sigma Ruins... It’s even bigger than the files described."

A young team member couldn’t help but exclaim as he looked at the surrounding metal pipes, which flickered with patterns of blue energy.

"Everyone, stay sharp!"

The voice of the leader, Captain Qin Feng, was steady as it came through the built-in communicators to each team member’s ear.

"Our mission is to investigate the source of the high-energy reaction and eliminate any potential threats. Everyone, maintain formation. Do not act on your own."

"If we encounter a threat we can’t handle, activate the Space-Folding Device and retreat immediately!"

"Understood!" the other four responded in unison.

Qin Feng, a Late-Stage Divine Realm Perfection expert, was the captain of the fifth squad. He had personally participated in the last rescue mission in the Painful Labyrinth and was also one of Yin Liulan’s former subordinates.
