Ch. 526The Samsara Realm Was About to Reincarnate

Li Ge brought his companions to Heaven-Reaching Island to show them the Samsara Realm’s reincarnation. He invoked the world’s Heavenly Dao, and the nine planets’ orbits collapsed together into a singularity containing the realm’s energy and information.

Ch. 530The vanished tower

Li Ge observed Christine, inspected Tony’s enormous block-planet project, and sent the final Tower Reaching Heaven toward the Sun. After a black-and-purple spark portal swallowed the unfinished tower, Li Ge sensed that it had left the dimension of reality.

  • Christine felt an inexplicable pleasure while speaking with a believer, then wondered what Strange was doing.
  • Li Ge sensed Christine’s emotion and decided to limit how many dependents he created, the power he granted them, and the attention he paid them.

  • Kaecilius told Dormammu that Li Ge had created the Nine Heavens, the Samsara Realm, and a path by which ordinary people could pursue godhood.
  • Dormammu ordered Kaecilius to monitor Li Ge, while Kaecilius secretly corrupted sorcerers and the Ancient One repeatedly erased his attempts to influence Strange and the others.

  • Dormammu extended enormous claws and began dragging the Tower Reaching Heaven into the Dark Dimension as Kaecilius and the fallen sorcerers' bodies collapsed from sustaining the passage.

Ch. 533Kaecilius's transformation

Kaecilius recovered after the ritual and discovered that the Dark Dimension’s energy had transformed him into a being made entirely of dark energy. He realized that his survival depended on his unusual resilience, Li Ge’s power, Dormammu’s energy, and the sorcerers who died protecting him.

  • Kaecilius regained his strength and learned that his body, eyes, and the cracks in his skin had become conduits for dark energy.
  • Kaecilius discovered that he could draw power from the Dark Dimension without Dormammu’s permission and that Dormammu’s influence over his thoughts had weakened.

  • Li Ge noticed unusual information about dark elements while teaching Wanda, Pietro, and Skynet, then left them to investigate its source.
  • Li Ge followed the information’s contractual connection to a hidden space inside a block island near the Sun, where he found Kaecilius among more than a hundred dead mages.
  • Li Ge pieced together that Kaecilius had used the Mirror Dimension and Dormammu’s power to steal the Tower Reaching Heaven, and he grew furious.
  • Li Ge teleported to Kaecilius’s block island, sealed it with Spacetime Lockdown, and prevented Kaecilius from opening a portal.
  • Li Ge used spatial rules to collapse the block island into a palm-sized model and erased the space’s traces.

Ch. 535He Took Something That Wasn't His

Li Ge brought the trapped Kaecilius to the Ancient One and asked for detailed information about Dormammu and the Dark Dimension. She gave him an ancient spellbook and said Dormammu had taken something that was not his, leaving Li Ge to deal with Kaecilius and pursue the stolen Tower Reaching Heaven.

  • Li Ge returned to his base with Kaecilius trapped inside a glass marble, then went to Kamar-Taj after deciding to speak with the Ancient One.

  • Li Ge left the Ancient One, saying he would deal with Dormammu.

Ch. 537Assessing the situation

Li Ge studied Dormammu’s weaknesses and concluded that his own powers could counter the Dark Dimension’s ruler. He began considering which allies could safely claim portions of Dormammu’s authority, leaving the selection and plan unresolved.

  • Li Ge disguised himself, read the Ancient One’s magic book in a New York café, and identified several weaknesses in Dormammu’s reliance on the Dark Dimension.
  • Li Ge decided he could withstand dark energy and potentially turn power borrowed from the Dark Dimension into nourishment.
  • Li Ge considered Strange, Wanda, Bruce and Hulk, Harry and Norman, Venom and Eddie, Loki, Cassie, Jean Grey, and Ghost Rider as possible candidates to share Dormammu’s authority.

Ch. 538Revising the Plan

Li Ge revised his plan to involve qualified supernatural beings from all four worlds in competing for a place in the Dark Dimension, and began turning Dormammu’s stolen Tower Reaching Heaven into a secret realm. He also collected General Ross and tens of thousands of Ultraman bodies to prepare equipment for the tower’s guards.

Ch. 547Breaking free

Tony kept Dormammu occupied in the Dark Dimension while Strange urged him to return to Earth and help repair its dimensional barrier. Once he judged Li Ge had enough time to rebuild the Tower Reaching Heaven, Tony used the Infinity Gauntlet’s Chaos Power to vanish with Strange, leaving Dormammu unable to sense them.
