Chapter 340 The Great Filter
The moment the deep blue planet was struck, there was no explosion, only absolute, silent annihilation.

An indescribable beam of light ripped across the sky, instantly obliterating the atmosphere at its point of contact and releasing boundless energy to form a perfect vacuum sphere. Everything around it was relentlessly pushed away by an invisible force.

Immediately afterwards, the surface of the planet struck by that invisible attack rippled outwards like the surface of water tossed with a pebble, spreading out in concentric circles of death.

The continental plate shattered like a biscuit, not a simple collapse, but a complete disintegration at the molecular level.

Instead of evaporating, the ocean was directly impacted by terrifying energy radiation into plasma, forming a blue plasma sea that only existed for a fleeting moment and then burst outwards.

The planet's core was ignited, not with flames, but with a frenzied release of mass-energy.

Mountains, forests, cities... all traces of life and civilization were reduced to ashes in a fraction of a second, accompanied by terrifying energy surging from the planet's interior. Even the ashes themselves were broken down into elementary particles.

The last thing left behind by the planet was not fragments, but a torrent of matter.

Endless matter was ejected into space, forming spectacular beams of particle light that shimmered against the dark backdrop of the universe, like a fleeting flower of destruction.

The entire planet transformed from solidity into chaos, and then from chaos into eternal silence, leaving behind only a cloud of blood-red dust that rapidly spread outwards.

Nothing else was left...

The planet's shattered remains, washed away outside the atmosphere, completely erased the last few space stations and satellites it left in space.

The planet's last echo struck the crimson-silver giant standing in space in the new city, impacting the damaged spaceship, but was completely blocked by the light surrounding him.

Xincheng's anger reached its peak, yet he was also utterly helpless.

Even after evolving from humans into giants of light, there are still many things that giants of light cannot do. For example, at extremely close range, without any prior preparation, intercepting an attack that reaches 99.9% of the speed of light.

On a cosmic scale, an attack at the speed of light is logically impossible to intercept without mastering action at a distance and constructing a trans-temporal network system that connects the vast cosmos, which is divided by time and space.

Because in a three-dimensional universe, the limit of matter transfer is the speed of light.

In other words, unless one can foresee the future, by the time a light-speed attack is observed, destruction has already occurred.

This world, which has existed for countless billions of years, took an immense amount of time to nurture life, and underwent arduous evolution to give birth to intelligence, is about to enter the eve of interstellar civilization...

Like a sandcastle on the beach, it is completely destroyed by the waves.

A wail, a cry... an indescribable "sound" struck the depths of the heart in the new city.

He felt a sadness fill his heart, and subconsciously touched his face before realizing that he couldn't cry.

"Is this... the death wails of a planet...?"

Only after the destruction was complete, with the help of the Giant of Light's extra-dimensional senses, did Shinjo truly see what had just destroyed the planet.

That was a particle of light.

It was a possible speculation about future weapons that he had read in a science fiction magazine when he was a child.

Due to the constraints of relativistic effects, no matter with rest mass can reach the speed of light.

The closer one gets to the speed of light, the greater the mass of matter becomes.

In theory, the energy required to violently accelerate a massive object to the speed of light is infinite!
At the same time, no matter how small the initial mass of such an object is, once it truly reaches the speed of light, its mass will be infinite!
This means that even a grain of sand, or even a basic particle, if accelerated to 99.9% and infinitely approaching the speed of light, will possess terrifying and unimaginable destructive power with no upper limit.

The entity that launched this particle of light—a mechanical island, its main body constructed of machinery and its exterior covered with a layer of rock condensed into interstellar dust, shaped like an inverted triangle—seemed to have completed its mission and was rapidly disappearing into the vacuum. No! That's not right!

The mechanical island is too far away!
What light can convey is always the history of the past.

When the new city sees it through the light, which is several light-seconds away and is about to disappear into the void, it means that it has already entered the vacuum and disappeared from this starry sky.

"Crunch... crunch..."

Space trembled, and the vacuum twisted like leather being kneaded by a giant's fist.

Absolute rage transformed into raging flames, weaving across his crimson and silver body, creating fiery patterns.

"You damn bastard! Don't even think about running away!"

With a roar that shook time and space, the light surrounding the new city reached its peak.

You can forget about catching it by flying, or even by teleporting.

Because it has essentially left "here," even if it were to accelerate to the speed of light in an instant and teleport to its current coordinates, as long as it did not travel through time, the new city could not catch up with the history that had already happened.

Then, his blood-red fists slammed fiercely into the void.

The tip of the fist, as if hammered into tough rubber, sank deep into it.

Immediately afterwards, thousands upon thousands of fists, carrying terrifying shockwaves, pounded the void like the beating of war drums.

An extremely violent gravitational wave spread outwards in three-dimensional space at the speed of light.

At the same time, since gravity can penetrate all dimensions, just as ripples on the surface of water spread underwater, it also creates a deadly fluctuation in higher dimensions.

Like a school of fish disturbed by ocean currents, the mechanical island, which had just disappeared into the void, was suddenly struck by a piercing alarm.

"Damn it! I've found you!" The giant felt the feedback from the spatial tremor, and his arms immediately unleashed tremendous power, distorting the space like crumpled paper to a terrifying degree.

In this extreme distortion, space, like a rubber band spring, accumulated all its power.

The next moment, the rebound began!

"Boom!"

The new city turned space into a slingshot, using itself as ammunition to precisely blast into the void, aiming at the detected coordinates.

Then, he delivered a powerful punch!
The next moment, the mechanical island, covered with twisted fist marks, was forcefully slammed back into three-dimensional space from the four-dimensional offset.

The crimson-silver giant, standing over 70 meters tall, appeared like an ant on that enormous mechanical island.

However, with each punch, a huge fist imprint would embed itself deeply into its metal shell, producing a dull, loud sound.

(Warning! Warning!)
(Our unit has been attacked by unidentified individuals!)
(Please cease the attack immediately! Otherwise, this unit will launch a counterattack!)
