Fierce Battle with Dormammu

An unknown space, a vast expanse of Dark Dimension in the void, as large as several Earths.

Ahead in the darkness, streaks of golden light continuously burst forth, shooting into the Dark Dimension like fireworks, briefly illuminating themselves before gradually fading away and returning to darkness.

Xia Yu was like a firefighter facing a building alone, holding a small water hose and spraying water continuously at the building that was full of flames.

Each strike shrank the area of Dark Dimension by tens of meters, but Dormammu's spatial capacity was simply too vast. Although Xia Yu had almost transformed into a human machine gun, the overall darkness remained unchanged.

Dormammu, after being shattered by Xia Yu's powerful punch, instinctively tried to reassemble his body, but Xia Yu's subsequent attacks were simply too dense.

Dormammu, who actually had little combat experience, was unable to react for a moment and allowed Xia Yu to bombard him for nearly twenty minutes.

Since the beginning of his endless lifespan, Dormammu had never encountered such a situation, nor had he ever experienced being repeatedly beaten.

He wanted to reassemble his body, even if it was just his head, so that he could manipulate dark matter to attack Xia Yu.

However, Xia Yu's attack frequency was too fast. Although Dormammu was in the Dark Dimension, as long as the energy continued, his consciousness would not perish, but it still took some time to condense his consciousness and manifest a physical body.

From the time Dormammu's consciousness was born until now, the time span is terrifying. In such a long river of time, Dormammu's battles with other beings or dimensions have always relied on his enormous energy and his ability to devour them directly.

Or, like with Doctor Strange, manipulate dark matter to conjure weapons to kill enemies directly.

Encountering this situation suddenly, especially with someone like Xia Yu who lacks any sense of Martial Virtue, Dormammu was genuinely at a loss for how to deal with it.

He simply let his consciousness remain still, repeatedly condensing and then being scattered, repeating this process over and over again.

Poor Dormammu, just like Hero in League of Legends whose recall is interrupted by minions, keeps repeatedly recalling, never knowing how to change his position.

The Dark Dimension he created was so vast that Xia Yu's attacks could only reach within tens of meters of him.

After this process was repeated hundreds of times, Dormammu's consciousness finally snapped back and recombine in the Dark Dimension.

The Dark Dimension was Dormammu's domain; with just a thought, his enormous, mountain-like body instantly appeared at the forefront of the Dark Dimension.

Xia Yu had no time to pay attention to Dormammu; he was still relentlessly unleashing his attacks.

As soon as Dormammu appeared, Xia Yu struck his body with huge ripples, constantly consuming Xia Yu Dark Energy.

Dormammu seemed to have been enlightened by Xia Yu, and now he knew to conjure a huge dark shield in front of him to resist Xia Yu's attacks.

Although the energy consumption of the shield is still the same, at least the body can attack Xia Yu.

"Die!!"

This may be the most furious word Dormammu has uttered in years.

Even if you can't tell from the tone of voice, you can at least tell from the actions.

The enormous arm swung towards Xia Yu, and countless spears made of dark matter whistled past Xia Yu.

Just like the move "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin" using spears, the sheer number of spears even reminded Xia Yu of a famous scene from the movie "Hero" he had seen in his previous life.

However, the number of spears Dormammu summoned paled in comparison to the volley of arrows in that scene.

Poor Xia Yu, a mere human, was caught in Dormammu's attack range, which could cover almost an entire city. At least within Xia Yu's visible range, he could see nothing but spears.

Xia Yu was clearly prepared for Dormammu's relentless area-of-effect attacks.

A dark red light flashed across his right hand, and the Aether suddenly vaporized, transforming into a small, semi-transparent protective shield that directly enveloped Xia Yu's figure.

This is Xia Yu's strongest defensive state since obtaining the Aether; this transformation state was inspired by Tony's Armor design.

Tony's thin Armor contains at least a dozen layers of force-absorbing material, allowing Tony, with his mortal body, to withstand Armor of hundreds or even thousands of tons without sustaining any damage.

Xia Yu's is even more outrageous. This isn't Armor mode; it's simply a shield covering the entire human body, with no function other than shock absorption and cushioning.

The Aether is one of the Six Infinity Stones, and its defensive properties make it invincible. With Xia Yu's human form, it experienced no recoil whatsoever and stood firmly in the void.

As the spears scattered, Xia Yu was not only unharmed, but also took advantage of the moment when the spears attacked to once again condense a huge fist of mental energy and smash it hard at Dormammu.

Before Dormammu could even see his spoils, he was punched hard in the chin again.

The massive body staggered from the blow, and half of its face, from its chin to its mouth, was shattered by Xia Yu's single strike.

"An eye for an eye, so behold my move, Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin!!"

With a successful punch, Xia Yu also conjured his energy into countless small swords, which shot towards Dormammu in a dense barrage.

Since absorbing the energy of the Aether, Xia Yu has been able to shape energy with a thought, and can imitate various martial arts techniques that release external energy using his own energy.

The Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms attack I just used is an effective way to dissolve Dark Energy.

However, while this move is not as cost-effective as the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms in terms of energy dissipation, it is visibly much more effective at directly attacking Dormammu's illusory body.

Thousands upon thousands of energy sword beams struck Dormammu's massive body, creating small holes in it.

Dormammu's jaw was shattered, and his body was smashed to pieces by Xia Yu's sword light, making him look extremely miserable.

Dormammu roared angrily to the sky, though it was unclear how the sound came out when his mouth was completely shattered.

In any case, with that roar, Dormammu's wounds were instantly repaired by Dark Energy.

"You! Go! To! Die!"

Dormammu uttered these words one by one, and as his voice fell, a sword thousands of meters long appeared in Dormammu hand.

A longsword the size of a mountain peak, as heavy as Mount Tai, slashed down fiercely at Xia Yu.

"The dialogue is so unoriginal, let's see who dies today, come on!!"

Faced with Dormammu's powerful attack, Xia Yu did not retreat but advanced, leaping into the air.

He actually jumped up right in front of Dormammu's attack.
