“You can’t do this! You’ll regret it!!”

Ignoring the sharp growl echoing in his ears and mind from Ego, Kyle remained indifferent as he maintained the swirling light of the Double Star Form. Guided by Pride, he dragged the sacred and dazzling tail flames, swiftly piercing through layers of earth and rock, penetrating deep into the planet’s core.

Ego was right. Although the Double Star Form was incredibly powerful, it was a state of extreme overload achieved by first-rate energy combined with first-rate physique. Even with Kyle’s current abilities, he couldn’t sustain the Double Star Form for an entire day.

After the intense energy battle just now, Kyle’s energy reserves had already dwindled, and his physical strength was severely depleted. If he continued to drag it out, the clear winner would undoubtedly be Ego, with its constant Planetary Level energy.

It was imperative to end this swiftly!

With a dangerous glint in his eyes, Kyle flew forward, reaching the underground fault where another Ego construct appeared. It opened its mouth menacingly, preparing to blast him back to the surface with an energy beam.

But while it was still charging up, Kyle accelerated, using his body as a weapon, and rammed straight into the construct’s mouth!

A terrifying explosion of energy erupted inside the construct’s mouth, causing the earth to tremble. Rocks and soil crumbled inch by inch, but Kyle emerged unscathed from the center of the explosion, continuing his breakthrough without hesitation!

One hundred kilometers, five hundred kilometers, one thousand kilometers…

Like a swordfish breaking free from the soil’s constraints, Kyle arrived in an incredibly vast underground space of the planet, illuminated by blinking fluorescent lights.

“Master, that’s it!”

Pride, in its mist-like form, surged slightly from Kyle’s body and gestured ahead. Following its indication, Kyle saw countless green plant-like pipes, each with a diameter of over three meters, resembling dense blood vessels, all connected to a dark blue metallic peak. They transported the planet’s energy and consciousness.

The metallic peak seemed to pulsate with life.

Pride spoke in a cold tone, “Inside the metallic structure lies something akin to a brain or a heart, the source of this planet’s immense life and consciousness. Master, there’s no doubt, that is the Celestial’s fatal weakness.”

“That’s simple enough.”

After hearing the report, Kyle dashed forward, approaching the metal structure. With his fist wrapped in swirling energy light, he slammed it onto the mountain.

Boom!

The metallic mountain trembled violently, but only a slight indentation appeared on it, with no signs of it being shattered.

“He is truly worthy of being a Celestial. This skull is tough…” Kyle’s eyes narrowed slightly as he saw this.

The hardness of this defense exceeded even the energy shields of Spaceship and the reinforced steel plates. It was second only to Vibranium, which theoretically rebounds all physical attacks.

If the fist doesn’t work then he will try something else.

Kyle quickly drew a card, materializing a golden fire disc, and placed it on his shoulders. With a swift motion, he brought it down on the metallic mountain.

Hiss…

As the flames of the disc touched the metal mountain, they spread upwards, melting the metal at a visible speed, even deforming it with a single strike from the Double Star Form.

“This is effective. The Eternal Flame is indeed a good thing.”

Gripping the golden fire disc with both hands, Kyle blinked in surprise. The energy level of the Eternal Flame was definitely on par with the Infinity Stones, and it was more destructive than the energy borrowed from the Space Stone.

Each stone had its own unique power, such as the Space Stone’s ability for teleportation and the Power Stone’s amplification of physical strength.

“At the dawn of the Marvel universe, the world was in chaos, then the Big Bang formed the current universe, along with the six elemental crystals, now known as the Infinity Stones. As the first flame of the universe, Eternal Flame, along with other races’ Divine Weapons, is there a special connection among them?”

Kyle murmured to himself, but he didn’t stop his actions. He stabilized the fire disc and manipulated the Eternal Flame appropriately. Gradually, the hardened metal mountain began to disintegrate in the flames, revealing a hole leading to its interior.

Containing cosmic power is not limited to just the Infinity Stones. For example, there’s the Eternal Flame that burns all things, Thor’s hammer that controls thunder, the Kree Divine Weapon that can traverse space, and so on.

As the metal mountain burned and melted, the planet shook continuously. The energy gathered like plant veins, dividing into several constructs of Ego, rushing towards Kyle with fear and anger, intending to stop him from threatening the core.

“Troublesome.” Kyle frowned deeply as he was unable to take immediate action to deal with them, just as he was preparing to dodge, the ground above suddenly broke open. A dozen red laser beams descended, blasting one of the Ego constructs to pieces.

“What’s that?” Kyle and the Ego construct looked up simultaneously, only to see an Spaceship descending. Through the cockpit windshield, they could see Quill, Yondu, Lucy, and Mantis in the pilot’s seat.

“You guys sure know how to… join the party.” Seeing them, Kyle couldn’t help but smile wryly. After giving a command to Vis, he no longer paid attention to the energy constructs, focusing entirely on breaking through the metallic mountain protecting the Celestial core.

“No problem.” The electronic watch detached from his wrist, and Vis transformed into a small flying device, approaching the Spaceship.

Lucy on the Spaceship, upon seeing Kyle underground and the nearby Ego construct, immediately understood everything. With her experience, she hastily said, “We’ll deal with those Ego avatars. Don’t let them interfere with Kyle, who’s attacking the core of the planet.”

“Got it!” Quill shouted loudly, pressing the button firmly. He unleashed a barrage of lasers at the energy constructs below, roaring with pent-up frustration, “My biological father is this thing! I’m fine being human!”

“Damn it, Quill, Mantis, you traitors! I’ll kill you!” Ego, seeing Quill and Mantis in the Spaceship, was furious, even the only lifeform closest to it now stood on the opposite side.

“If you want to kill them, you’ll have to go through us first!”

Yondu and Lucy jumped out of the spaceship’s hatch. Yondu held a red arrow, and Lucy wielded her frosty wings, slowly descending to the ground from mid-air.

“Ego, you’ve done too much evil. It’s time for you to face the consequences.” Yondu’s face remained calm as he whistled, and the red arrow in his hand flew out like a subtle tracking laser, heading straight for the Ego construct.

“Do you remember me, planet bastard?” Lucy teased, sticking out her tongue and making a face. Then, she spread her hands forward, and a frosty area below zero instantly froze the ground, immobilizing the transmission pipes, and preventing Ego from exerting its full strength.

“You two despicable lifeforms, I should have killed you long ago!”

Ego’s endless anger was hindered by the group, making him unable to take action against Kyle. It could only mobilize all the energy in the area, forming a frenzy of energy flows resembling daylight, and wreaking havoc in the surroundings.

On the other side,

Kyle opened up a path with the Eternal Flame and entered the belly of the mountain. What appeared before his eyes was a giant brain pulsating rhythmically.

“It’s all over, Celestial Ego.”

Kyle smiled faintly and reached out. This time, what he drew out was a small orange cat dozing off.
