In the universe, an endless alien space was torn open, and violent power surged out from it!
Clearly, the person who came was no small fry!
" Zod, go to Earth first and complete the mission I've given you. The next battlefield isn't suitable for you."
Xu Xiao's consciousness explored the alternate dimension in front of him with some interest, and then arranged for his pieces to move first.
Zod can't die here; he still has the crucial mission of killing Superman on his mind.
Sensing the violent power, even though no one had yet emerged from it, Zod knew it was no match for him. He nodded and ordered his men to start the ship.
"No one can escape! You traitors who have turned your backs on your own universe!"
A dignified voice came from the back of the passage, and then a figure emerged from it.
His skin was as gray as granite, with some fine cracks visible on it, and his tall figure was even a head taller than Thanos.
A pair of scarlet eyes gleamed with a dangerous light, and as soon as they appeared, they fixed their gaze on the Kryptonian spaceship that was about to leave.
Darkseid, the main villain of the DC Universe!
In the passage behind him, there were several unique beings: Darkseid's three sons and one daughter, as well as an endless army of Parademons.
Thanos, seated on his throne, looked at this long-lost old acquaintance with a cruel smile on his face:
"So it really is you coming after me. Long time no see, Darkseid!"
"Ha! I came here specifically to find you because I sensed your presence, Thanos!"
Darkseid gave Thanos a cold look; the two had met long ago.
The DC Universe has connected with the Marvel Universe for a long time, and characters from both worlds have interacted. There was even a story about Darkseid beating Thanos.
Of course, that Thanos and the Thanos in front of him are not from the same timeline. It's just that after possessing the Heart of the Universe, he has already accepted the traces of himself from other timelines.
Regardless, even if Thanos had been beaten up once in another universe, he had no intention of letting that person off the hook.
The humiliation that Thanos suffered in other universes must be avenged; he will wash away the shame he inflicted upon Thanos in those universes.
Just as the two were talking, the Kryptonian warship started up and began its ascent, about to leave the planet that was about to become a battlefield.
Once they enter space, they can activate Phantom Engine to perform a space jump to Earth.
However, Daksesai Ke was not about to let these traitors escape so easily; one of his main reasons for coming here was to punish them.
From the perspective of Darkseid's higher-dimensional self, in such wars between worlds, both the good guys and the bad guys should unite against a common enemy to protect the interests of their own universe.
His covetousness for Earth was merely a response to the development of the universe and his own ambitions; these were all internal struggles among his own people.
Traitors like the Kryptonian are more hateful than invaders!
"Traitors, don't even think about escaping!!"
Two crimson Omega Beams shot out from their eye sockets, carrying immense energy as they hurtled toward the Kryptonian spaceship.
Although the attack had not yet hit its target, Zod and his crew inside the spaceship already felt an intense sense of impending death.
This is not a force they can contend with.
"God! Help us!"
Zod could only turn his attention to Xu Xiao's consciousness, hoping that this being would intervene.
"Sigh! There's really nothing I can do, but this is an unexpected blow, so I'll help you this once."
Xu Xiao's consciousness instantly appeared in space from the spaceship, while his body rapidly solidified.
Immediately afterwards, facing the renowned Omega Beams, golden divine power surged in his hands.
"It's been a while since I've stretched my muscles, so let me see the power of this so-called DC villain!"
Golden divine power emanated from Xu Xiao's hand, and he then grabbed the scarlet rays as if he were holding two long, scarlet snakes.
With a gentle exertion of his palm, the golden divine power and the ray collided and shattered instantly.
"Not bad. Although you're just a projection in this three-dimensional world, your strength is undeniable."
Xu Xiao glanced at Darkseid, his eyes filled with admiration.
The other party is not a simple organism, but a special species with multidimensional existence.
To put it simply, most of the Darkseid appearing in the DC Universe are actually just dimensional projections of himself, similar to timeline clones.
His true form is a higher-dimensional being belonging to the DC Universe, and a representative of the destructive power of DC's origin, belonging to an existence similar to those of the First Firmament.
Although Thanos is a supervillain similar to him, each individual in each timeline is relatively independent, and only some special and powerful individuals can know about their deeds in other universes.
This is why Darkseid beat Thanos when Marvel and DC clashed.
Darkseid's power is entirely determined by how much power his higher-dimensional body provides him.
Theoretically speaking, if his higher-dimensional self were willing, Daksesai Ke could even possess the most powerful force in this three-dimensional universe.
Of course, no matter what, a projection is still just a projection.
Neither Xu Xiao nor Thanos, the Heart of the Universe, would be afraid of the other, especially Xu Xiao.
"Your multidimensional life structure determines your power, which is equivalent to locking down the upper limit of your power in this universe. I'll give you a blow to teach you a lesson, and it'll also be my extra contribution to this battle."
Xu Xiao's consciousness teleported instantly, appearing in front of Darkseid, a layer of seven-colored light shining on his golden fist!
World Power Awakens - Destruction Fist!
One punch!!
Darkseid reacted as soon as he sensed the spatial power, but when Xu Xiao's fist struck out, he revealed a helpless smile.
He couldn't dodge that punch!
The power emanating from that fist belonged to a higher dimension, a power that his projection could not contend with.
In a higher-dimensional universe, his higher-dimensional form could still hold his own, and might even be able to fight him without restraint.
His words are completely unacceptable.
The fist slammed into Darkseid's chest, unleashing the World Power it carried.
Great sound!
In the silent universe, no one could hear the sound; only the dazzling burst of seven-colored light remained.
Starting from Darkseid's chest, the World Power, representing the force of creation, began to unleash its might, directly reducing his body to its most fundamental nothingness.
'Gulp!'
The group of people around were all dumbfounded, including Thanos on the throne.
He had only heard of Xu Xiao's legend, who was said to have made deals with several supreme beings in Marvel, but he never expected that Xu Xiao himself was so powerful.
Unfortunately, as Xu Xiao used the World Power through his consciousness, his physical form gradually faded.
Since the consciousness entity cannot World-Crossing Gate to neutralize the flow of World Power, this consciousness clone will soon dissipate as it uses this power.
It's the kind of complete dissipation, not a return to the original form; this is the price of overusing power.
