It's force drain, which Sidious has proven himself a master of. With all Sidious's studies on the Dark Side...Sidious is also called an 'event horizon', a 'devouring black hole in the force', etc.
It's not inconceivable that the rebuilt order mastered a kind of defense against Force Drain, given that Yoda had a defense against every dark side technique
There is no proof, it is shown that he did drain Byss, but Nihilus did it on greater scale. And Kreia says "there are powers in the force for which there is no defense". So to say Sidious can withstand an attack that has no defense, is pure speculation/assumption. Now if Sidious were to use his force drain on Nihilus, that is entirely different considering Nihilus would just eat it. That's why I hate him, he can only be defeated by a wound in the force.
Greater scale? Sidious drained at least three planets when he returned from the dead.
And as we know, KReia was wrong as other sources state force drain can be defended against and Yoda could defend against anything.
and Sidious is a 'black hole' in the force and a 'devouring darkness'..able to drain someone's life, force and turn them into mental slaves

Nowhere does it say Sidious can turn anybody into a mental slave the way Nihilus does. The term "Yoda could defend against anything" is clearly not talking about EU, is ambiguous, or is plain ridiculous considering there was no defense for Nihilus' attack..

Assuming Kreia doesn't throw 3 sabers at him or force drain him. Kreia is a very powerful Jedi/Sith, I don't know why you don't take that into consideration.
