The summons of the gods by Apocalypse and the Sorcerer Supreme seemed to herald the start of a new war.
The seeds that were originally sown in multiple Marvel Universe have all begun to take root and sprout, launching a counterattack against the homeworld forces.
Aside from the 13 Apostles summoned by Apocalypse, the other Mutants also began to challenge their respective powers in their own universes.
War begins among ordinary people and gradually spreads to those on higher levels.
This battle, spanning the multiverse, will determine the rise of a new race and a reshuffling of cosmic power; it will definitely not begin anytime soon.
Apocalypse returns to the X-Men; the Apocalypse world silently awaits the start of the great war.
He believed those guys could find his trail before, and they certainly could again.
Meanwhile, Xu Xiao, who knew a good show was about to begin, didn't pay much attention. He was communicating with certain beings in a mysterious dimension.
Whether Mutants rise to power or not does not actually depend on the methods of so-called righteous organizations; the real obstacle is the super-beings of the Marvel Universe.
Just like many things you think were accomplished by a few ordinary people through their own hard work, they might actually have been negotiated and allocated by higher-ups beforehand.
For example, right now, Xu Xiao is confronting these supreme beings in Marvel in order to implement the concept of Mutants.
By the way, the space Xu Xiao is currently in is a forbidden zone in the Marvel Multiverse, and also the most remote place, ' The Far Shore '.
Many people may not be familiar with or even know this place, but it is actually the place where those once powerful beings in the Marvel Universe eventually gathered and stayed.
Here, you'll find the original supreme being of the Marvel Universe — the First Firmament, the Queen of Nevers, M'Kraan, and other incarnations from across the Marvel Universe.
Of course, they can also be called the cornerstones of the Marvel Multiverse. The reason why the Marvel Multiverse is filled with all sorts of chaotic laws is that it is constantly evolving, developing new rules based on these existing cornerstones.
Of course, these so-called strongest beings, after arriving at the Far Shore, all had only one identity—losers.
Xu Xiao followed the clues to this place, simply to find a reliable ally— First Firmament.
"I'm very interested in your plans, and I'd even be willing for you to use my resources to develop the tribe, and perhaps even to develop a new concept based on it, but what you can offer me in return is not enough!"
The First Firmament did not reveal its body; only its voice resounded in Xu Xiao's heart.
Ever since being betrayed and shattered by his own creation, oaa, He has been lingering here, waiting for a chance to take revenge.
(The OAA here is different from the Marvel Supreme OAA. The former is a creation of the First Firmament and belongs to the Celestials, while the latter represents the creators of Marvel. They are not the same concept.)
Xu Xiao's plan impressed Him, but He did not feel that the reward was sufficient.
'You old bastard! You're so damn greedy!'
Xu Xiao remained expressionless, but inwardly he was cursing the other party for being greedy.
If it weren't for the fact that the Mutants ' power source comes from a mysterious dimension derived from fragments that fell when the First Firmament was shattered by the OAA, he wouldn't have bothered looking for these guys at all.
These supreme beings in Marvel, although they have lived for countless years, have mostly not improved in either strength or intelligence.
That's just how First Firmament is. After being defeated by OAA, he hides on the Far Shore licking his wounds, and occasionally makes some small moves to take revenge.
But when it comes to actually seeking revenge, this guy is lacking in both intelligence and strength.
Xu Xiao's collaboration with Him was primarily driven by a desire to quickly establish a foothold in the Marvel Multiverse, paving the way for a future counterattack once he becomes powerful enough.
"Your Majesty, I believe that helping you fight against the Celestials is already a very reasonable deal, after all, I am just a new god."
Xu Xiao insisted on his conditions, and he could not promise anything more.
If First Firmament doesn't want to, he'll have to leave.
After all, the Celestials are not just a few individuals, but an entity that spans the Marvel Multiverse. The most powerful among them can easily overwhelm the First Firmament at this moment, so there's no need to side with a loser right now.
Xu Xiao's condition was that he would hunt down some Celestials for the First Firmament in exchange for the Mutants dimension they controlled.
Only in this way can the concept of Mutants be realized and spread to every corner of the Marvel Multiverse.
In other universes in the future, even without actively spreading the X-Gene, Mutants will naturally emerge, and they cannot be easily erased by certain beings.
Apocalypse can successfully ascend to godhood and become a high-ranking being that will exist permanently in every Marvel Universe — the God of Mutants.
"No, you are more than just a new god, I can see that!"
"You radiate the essence of the world; you are a visitor from another 'world,' just like Jehovah!"
The First Firmament isn't so easily fooled.
The power within Xu Xiao, which could be faked by other beings, was not so easy to conceal in His presence.
After all, He was once the sole ruler of Marvel, Creator God who held the world's size and World Authority in his hands!
"Okay, then tell me, what do you need?"
Xu Xiao remained expressionless. He had long planned to address the issue of his identity being exposed, and it was impossible to hide it any longer.
Neither the disguise of the World-Crossing Gate nor his own method of concealing his aura could make him continue to pretend in front of a being of the Creator God level, something he had anticipated long ago.
"I need... hehe!"
First Firmament revealed its needs, completely disregarding Xu Xiao's unpleasant expression.
'You bastard! You're just using me as a pawn!'
Xu Xiao looked hesitant, but did not refuse outright.
Indeed, the other party's ideas overlap to some extent with his, so perhaps he could use their strength against them to launch a new operation.
Moreover, the information revealed in the other party's words opened a new world for Xu Xiao, who had just stepped into a high position.
"So, my proposal shouldn't be too difficult, right? As long as you agree, I'll be your most steadfast ally, whether in this world or any other."
"The universe is vast and boundless, and our cooperation will not be limited to this one instance."
First Firmament is like that guy who tricks others into joining a pirate ship, eagerly awaiting Xu Xiao's statement.
He has encountered and cooperated with beings like Xu Xiao, who can travel through countless worlds, and he believes that the other party would not refuse.
After much deliberation, Xu Xiao finally nodded in agreement.
On the Far Shore, the two supreme beings reached some agreements, and the outcome of that multiverse war became irrelevant.
