Meikyō sees things more clearly.
Although the Ancient One was a Celestial-level powerhouse, Shuma Glass was not a weak Dimensional Demon God like Dormammu.
Although both are essentially Multiverse- level beings, Dormammu can only exert that level of power within his own universe, and his abilities are considerably weaker than God of other Multiverse.
After all, this was just an alien wizard who became Dimensional Demon God by sheer luck.
Shuma Glass, however, is a high-ranking being even within the Multiverse. There are hundreds of universes like the Dark Dimension. Although he is only an avatar of a power projection, he is still incredibly powerful. The Ancient One was able to remain undefeated thanks to the Time Stone, but she still fell into a disadvantageous position.
Fortunately, the Ancient One's strength was enough to maintain the situation and prevent Shuma Glass's power from affecting other places, indicating that it was still under her control.
After watching for a while, Meikyō felt that with his own strength, he could easily protect himself in this kind of battle, even with the help of the Ancient One.
"Keep an eye on this thing, I'll go up and help."
Meikyō handed the newly captured Book of Cagliostro to the king, then casually placed an Eight Trigrams Seal on it before soaring into the sky and teleporting to the battlefield.
Within the thick black fog, a gigantic monster surged forth, extending countless thick tentacles that swung wildly in the air, occasionally releasing lasers and energy shockwaves from its tentacles and eyes.
Along with this comes the corrupting influence of the Old Ones, whose evil thoughts can corrupt people. Without a sufficiently strong will, it is impossible to stay in such a scene for long.
Outside the black mist, the Ancient One created thousands of clones in the Form of Ikhan, filling the area. They used various secret techniques, such as Crimson Bands, the Sword of Vishanti, or Crimson Chains, to restrain and slow down Shuma Glass as much as possible while attacking him to accelerate his energy consumption.
Suddenly, Shuma Glass's eyes shifted and looked down at the space below.
A golden-orange energy giant, a thousand meters tall, is flying towards the sky.
Within the Perfect Susanoo, Mars drifted from the corner of Meikyō's mouth as he recklessly absorbed Natural Energy.
The Natural Energy in the Marvel universe felt to Meikyō to be abundant and complex, with a huge quantity, but it was mixed with too many other energies, making it not easy to mobilize and control.
Fortunately, Meikyō's Breathing Technique had reached its limit, and his cultivation method also had a remarkable ability to absorb Natural Energy, which enabled Meikyō to gather enough Natural Energy for one use.
"Void Flame Annihilation Slash!"
A slash burning with Amaterasu Black Flames swept across the sky.
For a moment, the churning black mist dimmed somewhat.
Meanwhile, the complete form of Meikyō Perfect Susanoo, was also shattered by the energy released from Shuma Glass's eyeball.
"Well done, but you don't have the Infinity Stones, so be careful."
As the Ancient One used the six-ringed Gagantua's Ring to block an incoming tentacle for the Meikyō, she gave it a warning.
"I understand, Master the Ancient One."
Meikyō flashed and continued the battle.
The effect of the Void Flame Annihilation Slash was not as good as he had expected.
It's likely because Multiverse- level being like Shuma Glass is too powerful, which weakens the spatial effects that I spent considerable effort integrating into my attack.
It now appears that there are two relatively suitable solutions.
One method involves using energy attacks to deplete the opponent's strength, while the other uses arcane techniques leaning towards white magic to suppress them.
These two things can be done simultaneously, because that's what the Ancient One did.
And the Ancient One is actually not lacking in energy.
Other spellcasters pay a heavy price to cast spells, but the Ancient One directly used the power of Dormammu's Dark Dimension to cast spells, which did not come at a high price, and she could even live for hundreds of years with this power.
The main reason is that Dormammu is a very weak target among the many Gods of the Multiverse. The Ancient One, backed by Vishanti and Eternity, is not afraid of him at all. She can even use the Time Stone to annoy Dormammu, just like Doctor Strange.
Dormammu could only turn a blind eye to the Ancient One's behavior, as long as she didn't take too much from him and affect the stability of the Dark Dimension.
Other spellcasters who draw energy from him will eventually fall into darkness and become followers of the Ancient One. Dormammu could only hope that the Ancient One would do the same, but hundreds of years have passed and the Ancient One is still perfectly fine.
Dormammu is considered the shame of all Dimensional Demon God, and even some powerful single-universe level beings can defeat him—they can't kill him, but they can beat Dormammu up.
But at least the energy of an entire Dark Dimension is still considerable. Although it is far inferior to that of Shuma Glass, it is still enough to consume a power projection.
Unlike the Ancient One, the Meikyō has no dimension as its energy source, but its own energy is enormous. In the Naruto World, it might not be as powerful as the Ten-Tails, but it could still defeat a Nine-Tails.
After all, Hashirama Senju's Chakra reserves were equivalent to half of the Nine-Tails plus Naruto. Meikyō possessed a more complete Sage Body than Hashirama Senju, with a more powerful physical body and soul that provided more Physical Energy and Mental Energy. In addition, he had increased chakra reserves from cultivating Chakra limits and Natural Energy from his cultivation techniques. His own energy was definitely no less than that of the Nine-Tails, the strongest Tailed Beast, and he could sustain high-intensity battles for a long time.
"Balthazar's Thunder!"
"The Watoom's Wind!"
"Blaze Release: Azure Luan!"
"Scorch Release: Fire Phoenix!"
"Dust Release: Limit Glass Technique!"
A series of spells and Ninjutsu with strong sound and light effects were unleashed by Meikyō. The power and number of these spells were so great that even the Ancient One couldn't help but take notice.
This was the first time she had ever seen Meikyō go all out.
With this level of performance, Fudō the Time Stone, the Ancient One estimated that she could only fight the Meikyō to a draw.
The Meikyō has a limit to the amount of energy it can process, while the Ancient One does not. However, her physical strength is not high enough. She can suppress the erosion of the Dark Dimension's power for a certain period of time, but her body cannot withstand it for long and needs a buffer.
With the addition of Meikyō as a new force, Shuma Glass's projection power was consumed much faster, which was reflected in the fact that the black mist was slowly dimming at a speed that could be perceived by the naked eye.
The Ancient One, a Celestial-level powerhouse with the Time Stone, was able to withstand Shuma Glass's projection. Coupled with the equally powerful Meikyō, they immediately gained the upper hand.
"Excellent! Master Meikyō's strength is indeed formidable!"
As the black fog dissipated, the scene in the sky was immediately seen by the group of mages who were using secret methods to observe it.
Mordo and the others felt that Meikyō's strength was indeed terrifying.
They had never actually seen a mage who could fly a Gundam hundreds or thousands of meters tall and unleash attacks with wide-range attacks with a wave of their hand. After all, normal mages conserve their magic power, preferring to use only five parts of their strength to exert seven parts, rather than using all their strength to exert ten parts.
"Truly... terrifying power. No wonder the Ancient One chose him as the next Sorcerer Supreme."
Mordo couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Wang stood there, pondering whether he should hold a celebration banquet for the two Sorcerer Supreme later.
Although the king was somewhat surprised by the power of the Meikyō, he had anticipated it.
Isn't it normal for the Sorcerer Supreme to have such power?
As the black mist dissipated and its replenishment ceased, Shuma Glass's projection gradually transformed from solid to a phantom, finally disappearing into nothingness with the cold, indifferent gaze at its center.
"It's finally resolved."
The Ancient One took a couple of breaths and quickly descended from the sky.
A sorcerer of her caliber, a godfather-level being, would certainly be able to fly. Even if she were to fall to her death, it would only be to find an opportunity to exit the stage, leave the mess to Doctor Strange, and retire to follow Eternity.
However, after such a long battle, the Ancient One also needed to catch her breath.
Stealing power from the Dark Dimension over the past few centuries has deeply corrupted her body, and she probably won't last more than ten years. This is why she's in a hurry to switch to the Eternity Realm.
"Mordo, go back to Kamar-Taj and have Master Hamir bring people to modify the memories of those affected by this incident. I'm going back to rest now. My king, I want to eat Huaiyang cuisine today. Master Meikyō, do whatever you want."
After the Ancient One finished speaking, she opened a portal and went back.
She needs to dispel some of the remaining Dark Dimension power within her body as soon as possible, maintaining a level that ensures her physical vitality.
Wang Yi rolled up his sleeves and followed him inside, preparing to cook in the kitchen.
Mordo also opened a portal, summoning Master Hamir and a dozen or so mages.
In some parallel universes, Hamil is the father of the King. However, in this universe, the King's father is also called the King. Their lineage has abandoned names and all of them are called the King—mainly to make it easier for the Sorcerer Supreme to pronounce. Over hundreds of years, several generations of kings have all been called by the same name.
"Master Hamir".
Meikyō and Mordo bowed to Hamil.
Hamil returned the gift.
This character is like a hidden master, holding a very high position in Kamar-Taj.
Despite losing a hand, decades of practice have given him a level of magical skill among the top in Kamar-Taj, making him a true ascetic.
Not every mage can have a "master" suffix added to their name.
Not everyone can be considered an ascetic. Some people think that those who practice hard are ascetics, but that's not the case.
The ascetics of Kamar-Taj originated from a certain school of shamans in Ancient India. They believed that all suffering in the world was finite, and that if they could endure more suffering, others would suffer less. Therefore, they found joy in suffering.
Ascetics who can persevere generally possess extremely strong and resilient mental fortitude. This is reflected in mages, who place high demands on their mental abilities, by making their spells more powerful.
Hamil's perseverance over decades deserves everyone's respect.
Meikyō initially acted alongside Hamil and the others.
To prevent mystical matters from having too much impact on the secular world, most magical events are handled by mages in the Mirror Dimension.
However, there are times when mirror magic cannot be used, such as when it involves God from the Multiverse. Mirror magic has no effect on such beings and usually has a greater impact. Therefore, Kamar-Taj has special magic to deal with such situations.
Watoom's Eye of Confusion is a Genjutsu that targets mental memories. It works in a way similar to hypnosis. In this case, everyone affected by this spell will firmly believe that the place became like this because of an earthquake.
This spell works reasonably well on ordinary people, but it has little effect on people from other magical backgrounds or those superheroes with strong wills. In fact, some ordinary people with strong and resilient minds may even break most of the spell on their own at some point, blurring the two memories in their minds and causing a situation similar to the Mandela Effect.
Even so, this spell is sufficient.
Even if only a small percentage of people remember it, if 99.99% of people believe it was an earthquake, then it is an earthquake.
This magical Meikyō was not learned from the Ancient One.
Because the Ancient One believed that Meikyō's Genjutsu abilities were superior to hers, there was no need for Meikyō to learn this kind of magic.
After watching Hamil cast the spell and copy it, Meikyō initially fused the spell with the Genjutsu and began to follow suit.
This magic wasn't cast on a single person, but rather Hamil led his mage apprentices to form a magic circle around the entire area of Rabat, hypnotizing them all at once.
After the incident, Meikyō returned to Kamar-Taj and had a free meal before starting to plan his next move.
What is the purpose of coming to the Marvel universe?
Ultimately, it's all about strengthening one's own power.
The two main themes are finding powerful energy sources and using the Mirror God Eye to understand the Infinity Stones.
"As for gems, there are ways to access the Mind Stone and the Space Stone, and the Time Stone goes without saying. So there should be three other gems: the Reality Stone, the Power Stone, and the Soul Stone."
"The Reality Stone seems to have been hidden by the Asgard in some alternate dimension a long time ago and has not yet been born. The Power Stone is on some abandoned planet, and the Soul Stone is on a planet whose exact location is almost unknown to most people, and one must sacrifice one's beloved to obtain it."
"The Ancient One told me before that she had contacted Odin and talked about borrowing the Space Stone. I can ask him later if he has any accurate information about the Reality Stone. But judging from the time, it should be close to the time when this thing will appear."
"The Power Stone and the Soul Stone are in other distant star systems. I don't know if the Ancient One has any way to let me get in touch with them. The conditions for obtaining the Soul Stone are too harsh. There is a slight chance for the Power Stone, but it's not much. Right now, the easiest ones to get in touch with are the Time Stone and the Mind Stone."
