Neo teleported out of the ship.
He appeared in the silent void just outside the Sky Barrier.
The massive construct shimmered faintly. It was a thin but impenetrable wall of divine energy spanning the Solar System.
To most, it was an unbreakable shield, the final defense keeping outsiders away.
Neo drifted forward slowly.
He didn't use any technique, or even Energy.
He pressed his hand gently against the invisible surface.
The barrier reacted instantly.
At first it only rippled, like water disturbed by a pebble.
But as he continued pressing forward, the structure itself began to give way.
Cracks spread out from his palm. Thin fractures formed in every direction.
He moved forward steadily while his arm remained extended, and the barrier bent inward as though bowing before him.
A sharp tremor ran through the construct.
Its light flickered violently, and then it shattered at the point of contact.
