Inside Sanctuary II.

After confirming that Mister Fantastic was indeed a person sent by the Death God, Thanos allowed him to roam freely.

In fact, he was very clear that the other party had ulterior motives and did not really want to surrender.

But those things are terrifying.

Their ability to manipulate people's hearts surpasses even one ten-thousandth of that of Succubus in Hell.

The skill of Chess Players lies in not letting the pieces realize that this is not their own idea, nor in revealing their presence to the pieces.

Instead, they amplify or diminish certain emotions of the pieces to achieve their own goals.

For example, Gamora.

Although she was kind-hearted, she wasn't kind enough to commit patricide.

However, the Chess Players orchestrates certain experiences, such as romance, to gradually amplify the opponent's kindness, which naturally leads to the idea of patricide.

That's why he had no choice but to take drastic measures.

Because it's beyond saving.

The same goes for Mister Fantastic.

The other party is self-righteous and arrogant.

The Death Goddess, by taking advantage of this idea and subtly guiding the other party, gradually turned them into her pawn without them even realizing it.

Moreover, even if these pieces sense something is wrong and try to break free from this control, they will quickly become confused.

Because they don't know whether their next thought is their own or the Chess Players's.

Every action you take, is it something you want to do, or Chess Players wants you to do?

Ultimately, this will lead to a vicious cycle.

Am I really myself?

Does the world really exist?

Where did the universe come from, and where is it going?

After a series of three questions, these pieces defeated themselves.

Only those with the strongest will can make the choices they want without being swayed by others.

Even if Chess Players tries to guide the game, they will fail in the face of such unwavering determination.

That's why the Death God appeared and made a deal with him.

At this point, the war had finally come to a temporary end.

Thanos looked at Ghost Rider, who was now only a head, picked it up, and began to examine it closely.

He wanted to try and study the power of the Dimension Demons to see where their strangeness lay, so he did not use the Soul Stone to protect himself.

Soon, Hellfire erupted from Ghost Rider's head as he unleashed his passive skill, Judgment, at him.

However, after Thanos watched for a while, nothing happened.

He shook his head, somewhat helplessly.

Unexpectedly, I turned out to be an exceptionally kind person, one in a million, and was completely unable to Judgment by the other party.

It seems I truly am the greatest and kindest overlord in the universe.

He casually tossed the skull to his subordinates, instructing them in his Black Order to keep it safe so they could use it later to prove his goodness.

After all, this is the Dimension Demons, Mephisto's officially certified good person verification tool; who would dare to deny it?

Those who disagree with this view should first get Mephisto's "good guy" certification before trying to refute it.

Just as Thanos was about to leave, Deep Blue's voice suddenly rang out.

"Master, I've detected that Zeus has sent back one hundred Spaceship."

Upon hearing that there were only one hundred ships, Thanos said somewhat uninterestedly, "Only one hundred? Let Hela handle it."

After saying that, he lifted the Phoenix Force Heir beside him with one hand.

He had a nascent idea: to use this thing for cultivation.

However, the Phoenix Force Heir's power is still too weak; they need to go to Fixed Star to absorb some more power.

After all, the Phoenix Force is a well-known Fixed Star fire extinguisher in the universe, specializing in absorbing the energy of Fixed Star to grow stronger.

As long as she has Fixed Star to absorb, her strength will increase rapidly, and then she can try out her ideas.

"Let Proxima Midnight rule the Blue Star."

After he finished speaking, the blue light on his Infinity Gauntlet flashed, and the next second, he disappeared from his spot and appeared at an altitude of one thousand kilometers above the sun.

The Sun is a relatively young Fixed Star, about 4.5 billion years old, with a diameter of about 1.392 million kilometers, a surface temperature of about 5,500 degrees Celsius, and a surface gravity about 27 times that of ordinary gravity.

The Phoenix Force Heir, upon arriving near the sun, immediately opened his eyes in a daze.

Immediately afterwards, the passive ability was activated, and it began to absorb the sun's energy.

Wisps of solar fire erupted from the sun's surface and were then absorbed by her.

Seeing how quickly the opponent adapted to the sun's fire, Thanos immediately flew towards the sun, getting even closer.

In fact, he had wanted to absorb the energy of Fixed Star for a long time.

The system-given Star-Absorbing Technique skill did not provide a detailed explanation.

Besides absorbing Planet, can it also absorb Fixed Star?

After all, they are all stars, and there's no rule saying they can't absorb Fixed Star.

However, he didn't know if his body could withstand it, and he wouldn't rashly use his body for experiments.

Therefore, no action has been taken.

Now that Phoenix Force Heir has appeared, using them for experiments is the best outcome.

Soon, the aura of the Phoenix Force Heir rose steadily, quickly reaching the strength of the Sub-Skyfather, but it did not stop and continued to rise.

After more than ten minutes, I arrived at the aura of the Skyfather-level.

Seeing this, Thanos couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.

The Inheritors of these ancient powers can be described as chosen ones.

No need for arduous training, no need for unwavering willpower, and not even for any extraordinary encounters.

Given enough time, they can continuously increase their strength. The hard work of others over hundreds of years is not as effective as these people's casual improvement.

Although he admired them, he didn't want to become that kind of person himself.

Throughout the more than five hundred years of the Marvel Universe, he has understood one thing very clearly.

That means there's no such thing as a free lunch.

The Phoenix Force Heir seem to effortlessly possess enviable power, but the price is the loss of self, ultimately becoming mere vessels for the Ancient Phoenix.

This is something that Chess Players cannot tolerate.

Because these people are rule Ravagers.

For example, the Phoenix Force Heir in his possession.

An Inheritors of Multiverse power was actually sealed away by a human whose power was not even at the Skyfather-level.

He simply refused to believe that there wasn't some unknown entity pulling the strings behind the scenes.

More than an hour later, the aura of the Phoenix Force Heir reached the mid-stage strength of the Highfather.

At this point, Thanos felt that it was about time.

If the Phoenix Force Heir's power increases further, it might be difficult to control them.

With that thought, Thanos's left hand flashed with blue light, and the Space Stone was activated.

In the next instant, he was taken to the edge of the Solar System, a place where sunlight could not reach.

Then he reached out and aimed at the Phoenix Force Heir.

Star-Absorbing Technique.

Start up!

Instantly, a massive surge of Fixed Star power erupted from the opponent's body and entered his.

"Oh!"

This power was so immense and pure that it caused his muscles to tense, and the World-Destroying Power began to surge as he struggled to resist the corrosive effects of the Fixed Star energy on his body.

Is the power of Fixed Star really that great?

Compared to the Planet's Earth's Core, it's on a completely different level.

If we compare Planet's Earth's Core to water at 60 degrees Celsius, which is slightly hot, then the power of Fixed Star is like molten lava at 1,000 degrees Celsius.

Luckily, I didn't recklessly absorb the Fixed Star before, otherwise I probably would have been roasted to a crisp and turned into dried sweet potato.

I was so touched to see it had an 8.8 rating this morning!

There's not much to say; the author was immediately filled with motivation and started writing early in the morning, as evidenced by how early it was posted.
