Because Qi Jun's cheat was actually-the Reality! Stone!
Qi Jun was thrilled. I have a Reality Stone too!
Qi Jun desperately wanted to roar at the top of his lungs, but in the end, he held himself back.
The unfamiliar surroundings constantly reminded Qi Jun that this was not his home. This was the Marvel Universe, with danger everywhere. Who knew whether a sudden, inexplicable shout would draw someone's covert attention?
Even so, Qi Jun was extremely excited, and holding it in was agonizing!
That's right!
It was the very same kind of Reality Stone found among the Infinity Stones!
However, the Reality Stone Qi Jun possessed differed somewhat from the Reality Stone in the Marvel Universe.
Chapter 3: The Mutated Reality Stone!
Every Marvel fan knew that the conditions for using the Reality Stone in the Marvel Universe were extremely demanding. Without a powerful physique and a vast supply of energy, no one could control it. Using the Reality Stone without having fully assembled the Infinity Gauntlet would even drain the user's life!
Even someone as powerful as the leader of the Dark Elves-Malekith, uh, no, Malekith-who possessed the mighty Aether (with the Reality Stone at its core) and could clash head-on with Odin, ended up being hammered to death by the God of Hammers because the Reality Stone at the Aether's core drained his life force whenever he used it!
Clearly, beneath the Marvel version of the Reality Stone's tremendous power lurked equally tremendous dangers!
But! Qi Jun's cheat-the Reality Stone-was not like that!
Or rather, the Reality Stone Qi Jun possessed was a mutated version, distinct from the Reality Stone in the Marvel Universe! Even an upgraded version!
Because...
Through the information he received after binding himself to the Mutated Reality Stone, Qi Jun gained a complete understanding of this powerful cheat's abilities!
The Mutated Reality Stone had every ability the Marvel Universe's Reality Stone possessed!
It even had abilities the Marvel Universe's Reality Stone lacked!
For example, the Marvel Universe's Reality Stone could only be used within the Marvel Universe. If it left the Marvel Universe, differences in the universe's fundamental essence would weaken its abilities, or even turn it into a completely useless gem. But no matter which universe or world the Mutated Reality Stone was in, it could attune itself to that universe's fundamental essence and unleash its full capabilities!
Most importantly!
Unlike the Reality Stone in the Marvel Universe, which required an enormous supply of energy to use and also drained its user's life force.
Qi Jun's Mutated Reality Stone would not drain his life force. On the contrary, the Mutated Reality Stone bound to him would even provide him with protection!
This protection was passive.
Of course, if Qi Jun wished, he could also turn this ability into an active skill.
The difference was that passive use required no additional expenditure of Qi Jun's energy, and the Mutated Reality Stone would even absorb the energy of incoming attacks. Active use, however, counted as using the Mutated Reality Stone and required Qi Jun to actively supply the energy it consumed!
In fact, according to the information the Mutated Reality Stone transmitted to Qi Jun, this ability was essentially energy absorption-energy absorption in every sense of the term!
It was similar to the ability of the Black King among the Mutants, Sebastian Shaw, but far more powerful and all-encompassing!
This energy absorption encompassed material and immaterial energy, positive and negative energy, mental energy, soul energy, magical energy, and so on.
With this passive ability alone, as long as Qi Jun had an oxygen tank, he could survive perfectly well in space without wearing any protective suit, because the Mutated Reality Stone would absorb every bit of energy, radiation, and anything else harmful to him!
Of course, this immensely powerful passive skill was not without its drawbacks for Qi Jun.
