The torrent of time marches relentlessly forward.
Master Gu Yi, who had completed her retirement plan with the help of her disciple, Kasilias, who was bewitched by Dormammu, specifically sought out her successor, Stephen Strange, who could only be considered a genius in magical cultivation rather than a strong person, in astral projection form before going to follow the Eternal God.
When Stephen Strange saw Master Gu Yi's soul, he was overjoyed.
"Master Gu Yi, I knew you couldn't..."
"Don't speak yet, my time is limited, listen to me." Master Gu Yi interrupted Stephen Strange directly, and then said: "My disciple Kasilias has betrayed Earth, betrayed humanity, he has taken refuge in the Lord of the Dark Dimension, Dormammu, and vainly attempts to sacrifice the entire Earth to Dormammu. Now only you can stop him!"
Stephen Strange was stunned.
What a joke, although he has been studying for several months now, he is at most a novice on the road of magic.
Where did Master Gu Yi get the courage to entrust such a thing as saving the earth to a novice like him?
Perhaps seeing Stephen Strange's thoughts, Master Gu Yi then said: "Before you truly grow up, I have arranged a powerful helper for you. When you feel that you are unable to cope, you can ask him for help. He can give you help, but the help he can give you is always limited, and it requires a price. When the request you make to him exceeds the reward I paid before, then you have to find a way to pay enough price yourself."
Stephen Strange was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Master Gu Yi, please tell me who is the helper you arranged for me."
"He, like Dormammu, is a dimensional demon god, but the difference is that he is not like Dormammu and other dimensional demon gods who completely abandoned his body and merged with the dimensional world, but don't underestimate him because of this, because in addition to being a dimensional demon god, he has also become the lord of the hell dimension. For a long time, you don't need to worry about the Earth facing the threat of hell, because he will help you block hell's peeping at the Earth!"
The more Master Gu Yi said, the more uneasy Stephen Strange felt.
Seeing Stephen Strange's expression becoming more and more solemn, Master Gu Yi finally seemed to stop being mysterious.
"With your previous status in human society, you should have heard of his identity. After the New York War, he was called the God on Earth by you."
Stephen Strange's eyes lit up immediately.
Stephen Strange doesn't care at all whether Luo Fu is the God on Earth now.
After all, he was once a top neurosurgeon who could earn money that others could not earn in a lifetime with one operation.
Even because of the car accident, he had to resort to magic. In the cultivation of magic, he still possessed a talent that surpassed countless people.
Naturally, I have heard many legends about Luo Fu, the God on Earth.
It's just that the previous Stephen Strange at most regarded Luo Fu as a member of the Avengers Alliance, like those freaks.
But now it seems that Luo Fu really has abilities comparable to God.
Stephen Strange naturally knows very well what a dimensional demon god means after being in Kama Taj for so long. That is a terrifying existence that possesses a world and is like a creator.
And the hell dimension is enough to be the enemy of heaven and God in mythology.
Luo Fu also has the identities of a dimensional demon god and a hell lord at the same time.
In Stephen Strange's view, Luo Fu, who is still walking in the world, is really not an exaggeration to say that he is the God on Earth.
I never dreamed that Master Gu Yi would leave himself such a powerful backer before leaving. Stephen Strange said with full confidence: "Master Gu Yi, please tell me, how can I contact this God on Earth?"
Master Gu Yi looked at Stephen Strange strangely and said: "When you encounter troubles and dangers that cannot be solved, you only need to ask him for help in your heart. I believe he should help you."
The smile on his face froze there instantly. Stephen Strange looked at Master Gu Yi embarrassedly and said: "Are you saying that when I encounter danger, I need to pray to our God on Earth in my heart like a believer?"
"You can also not do this." Master Gu Yi blinked. After unloading the identity of the Supreme Mage, this Heavenly Father-level powerhouse who has lived for hundreds of years seemed to be even more mischievous, "But I believe that after your death, you should be able to make it in time to collect your body, well... at least a little bit will be left, so that your body will not be lost."
It's simply no different from the church's swindlers忽悠 believers.
When believers ask God for help, if their wishes are fulfilled, it is God's help, but if the difficulties have not been changed, then it is not enough faith.
In short, whether it works or not depends purely on luck.
After finally teasing Stephen Strange, Master Gu Yi said with disappointment: "Stephen, I should go."
Although his heart was full of reluctance, Stephen Strange still looked at Master Gu Yi's soul with firm eyes, and said: "Master Gu Yi, I will definitely protect the Earth and will not let you down."
Nodding, Master Gu Yi said: "I believe that in the countless futures I have seen, you are the most suitable person to become the Supreme Mage. Believe me, the help I leave you will not disappoint you."
Finally, after leaving a sentence that was almost teasing Stephen Strange, Master Gu Yi's soul suddenly glowed with a bright light and went straight to the sky.
In an instant, it disappeared from Stephen Strange's soul's sight.
As Master Gu Yi left, Stephen Strange's soul finally felt the call of his body again.
The soul uncontrollably began to fly towards the direction where the body was located, and then plunged into the body in one go.
Just after finishing the astral projection, before Stephen Strange could get out of bed.
A dimension door shining with sparks opened in front of Stephen Strange.
Wang, who was trusted by Master Gu Yi in Kama Taj, hurriedly appeared in front of Stephen Strange and said: "Stephen, Kasilias and Dormammu's followers have destroyed the New York Temple. We must immediately stop them from continuing to destroy the remaining two temples, otherwise, once the three major temple enchantments no longer exist, the entire Earth will be swallowed by Dormammu's dark dimension."
Stephen Strange was instantly anxious.
He had just promised Master Gu Yi to inherit the position of Supreme Mage and protect the Earth, but he hadn't even taken a breath.
Is the Earth going to be finished?
Without thinking too much, Stephen Strange got out of bed and hurriedly said to Wang: "Quick! We must go there immediately, and we must not let the remaining two temples be destroyed."
The dimension door with sparks shooting out opened in an instant.
The temple on the other side was already surrounded by Kasilias and countless Dormammu's followers.
When Stephen Strange and Wang rushed in, the London Temple was almost destroyed by Kasilias and others at the same time.
When Wang and Stephen Strange and others wanted to rush up, Kasilias and his party showed a smug smile, and soon遁入 into the dimension door again, and left the location of the London Temple in an instant.
"It's terrible." Wang said with a solemn expression: "Now there is only one of the three major temples left. If even this one is destroyed, then no one will be able to stop Dormammu's arrival."
"It's not the worst time yet." Stephen Strange was selected by the Supreme Mage Gu Yi not only because his talent in magical cultivation was the best of the contemporary era, but more importantly, Stephen Strange had a spirit of unyielding tenacity.
This tenacity is the key to Gu Yi's choice of Stephen Strange.
Perhaps encouraged by Stephen Strange, Wang also cheered up and opened the dimension door again, heading straight to the location of the last temple, Xiangjiang.
Sure enough, when Stephen Strange and Wang arrived at this last temple.
Kasilias and others were actually destroying the last three major temples.
After a fierce battle between the two sides, although Stephen Strange's talent was very strong, it was a pity that he had been cultivating in Kama Taj for too short a time.
How could he be the opponent of Kasilias and other mages who had obtained the support of Dormammu, the Lord of the Dark Dimension.
In just a short exchange, Stephen Strange was firmly suppressed by several of Dormammu's followers.
Even Wong was unable to free himself to help Stephen Strange.
Seeing this, Kaecilius smiled triumphantly and directly began to destroy the last Sanctum.
With Stephen Strange and Wong completely unable to shake off the entanglement of Dormammu's followers, they could only watch helplessly as the last Sanctum was completely destroyed by Kaecilius.
With the end of the Three Sanctums system,
the power of the Dark Dimension finally began to invade Earth肆无忌惮 unbridledly.
At this time, Dormammu's followers, disregarding their exhaustion, and the fact that Stephen Strange and Wong were at their wit's end, rushed towards the Dark Dimension with fanaticism on their faces.
"It's over, everything is over," Wong said, collapsing onto the ground in despair.
"Not yet, we still have a chance." Stephen Strange, as if he had thought of something, reached out and touched the Eye of Agamotto on his chest, saying, "There must be a way to stop the Dark Dimension."
"The Three Sanctums are destroyed, we are not the Sorcerer Supreme, we don't have the Sorcerer Supreme's power, and now, with Dormammu watching us like a tiger, we don't have time to rebuild the Three Sanctums!" Wong said to Stephen Strange in despair.
"Listen to me." Stephen Strange stood up and staggered towards the Dark Dimension, which had already begun to devour the Earth, saying without looking back, "Wong, wait for me to return, I will definitely have a way to save everything."
The moment his voice fell, Stephen Strange's figure was instantly swallowed by the Dark Dimension.
… … … … … …
Pantheon.
Immersed in the study of Chaos Magic, the more Luo Fu understood Chaos Magic, the more he realized that Chaos Magic was indeed a power close to the essence of the universe.
This is almost an endless power.
Just as the Jade Emperor once said, there are several key factors in Chaos Magic: the deeper the understanding and cognition of the world, the less power is consumed to cast Chaos Magic.
And vice versa.
This also means that those who have profound attainments in Chaos Magic have a cognition of the universe that is powerful to an unimaginable extent.
Cultivating Chaos Magic is equivalent to running wildly towards the realm of omniscience, and omniscience is omnipotence.
The more you know, the more you can change everything in the universe with a single thought.
While Luo Fu was immersed in Chaos Magic, he suddenly felt that there were two forces, one large and one small, constantly affecting his Divine Might Dimension.
You must know that the Divine Might Dimension is where Luo Fu's foundation lies.
The sudden change immediately made Luo Fu unable to concentrate on studying Chaos Magic.
The moment he entered the Divine Might Dimension, the scene before him instantly changed Luo Fu's expression drastically.
Because, in his perspective, the scene of the Dark Dimension and Earth was clearly presented before him.
Luo Fu's eyes narrowed, and he muttered to himself, "Ancient One, is this the purpose of your helping me?"
Luo Fu could feel that his Divine Might Dimension was only receiving a distress signal from Earth, and this signal was precisely because of Stephen Strange.
But this is just a signal. Whether or not to take action depends entirely on Luo Fu's own will. Luo Fu can even watch Earth fall completely into the Dark Dimension without doing anything.
Of course, even without Luo Fu, Stephen Strange still relied on the power of the Time Stone to manipulate time, creating a time loop, and relying on his own perseverance that was so tenacious that it was outrageous, he repeatedly endured the pain of death, forcing Dormammu to retreat.
It's just that since he had promised the Ancient One before, and Luo Fu's growth can be said to be due to the Ancient One's repeated help.
Of course, he would not violate his promise.
After all, although the Ancient One seemed to have indeed died at the hands of his disciple Kaecilius, don't forget that for a Skyfather-level existence like the Ancient One, the death of the physical body is not important at all. In fact, the Ancient One is now following the Eternal God. Maybe he is very comfortable, and may even be watching everything happening on Earth with great interest, waiting for Luo Fu to take action.
After all, Stephen Strange is also the future Sorcerer Supreme.
Luo Fu can also be regarded as having received the favor of the Kamar-Taj lineage, and had once promised that the Ancient One would give him help when Stephen Strange grew up.
Now that he has noticed the distress signal arranged by the Ancient One, Luo Fu will of course not remain indifferent.
Along with the appearance of the space vortex, Luo Fu's figure disappeared飘然 gracefully into the Pantheon, in the domain of the Chinese God System.
At the same time as Luo Fu left, the Jade Emperor suddenly looked in the direction that Luo Fu had previously left, and then instructed Nezha, "Nezha."
"Your subject is here. May I ask Your Majesty, what are your orders?" Nezha looked eager.
"Go and erase the space imprint left by Luo Fu."
The Jade Emperor's instructions immediately surprised Nezha, who said in confusion, "Your Majesty, since Luo Fu knows the location of the Pantheon, simply erasing the space imprint he left behind, apart from preventing him from directly coming to our territory, doesn't seem to be of any use, does it?"
Glancing at Nezha, the Jade Emperor said, "Luo Fu is not of our race."
Nezha is not a child. Although his appearance is very deceptive, seemingly like a mischievous child, in fact, Nezha's age is no less than that of many old monsters in the Pantheon.
In just an instant, Nezha understood the Jade Emperor's meaning.
The Jade Emperor's so-called 'not of our race' is clearly referring to the reason why Luo Fu did not join the Chinese God System.
Of course, there is also a more crucial point, that is, Luo Fu's specialty makes the Jade Emperor unable to see through him. Not being able to see through him also means that he cannot be controlled, and more importantly, the Jade Emperor cannot predict what Luo Fu will do in the future.
Just now, the Jade Emperor felt that Luo Fu was about to provoke a powerful enemy.
Most of these god systems that have stayed in the Pantheon are existences that are content with pleasure, and the Jade Emperor is used to the Pantheon and does not want to be involved in the many upheavals in the universe.
Didn't you see that even Asgard, the strongest god system in the Nine Realms, even if it enters the Pantheon, is enough to become a candidate force for control, and almost disappeared because of a Ragnarok?
In the Jade Emperor's eyes, Luo Fu is a source of trouble.
"Your subject understands." Nezha rolled his eyes and said, "Although Luo Fu is not of our race, he is still from our Chinese lineage and has a bit of affection."
In just an instant, the Jade Emperor guessed Nezha's thoughts.
Nezha, the God of Mischief, is actually one of the biggest unstable factors in the Chinese God System.
Who let Nezha, in the Qiankun Circle connecting to a pocket dimension, seal the Barren Worm from before the ancient times?
When the Barren Worm invaded the Daluo Heaven where the Chinese Heavenly Court was located, it had fought fiercely with the Jade Emperor.
But the result was that not only did the Jade Emperor fail to take down the Barren Worm, but even his own daughter, Weaver Girl, died in that battle.
On the contrary, the Barren Worm was sealed by Nezha, together with his two elder brothers, Jinzha and Muzha, in the pocket dimension within the Qiankun Circle.
But because of this, the sealed Barren Worm began to constantly corrode Nezha's will through the Qiankun Circle. Nezha's many evil deeds are due to this.
Once Nezha is completely corroded by the Barren Worm one day, it will bring a catastrophe to Daluo Heaven.
In order to temporarily alleviate this predicament, the Jade Emperor personally took action and divided Nezha's Qiankun Circle into twelve, scattered across the Three Realms, unless the twelve rings are reunited, otherwise, the Barren Worm will never have the opportunity to break out of the pocket dimension.
Among them, the Ten Rings are precisely the Ten Rings in Wenwu's hands, and the Qiankun Circle in Nezha's hands is actually only one of the twelve rings that were divided at the beginning, not even 10% of the power of the original Qiankun Circle.
Nezha is the true owner of the Qiankun Circle after all. Although the division of the Qiankun Circle has temporarily eliminated the crisis of him being completely corroded by the Barren Worm.
But this does not mean that Nezha is really completely safe.
On the contrary, as long as Nezha is still alive, then he is one of the hidden dangers of the Chinese God System.
At this moment, since Nezha took the initiative to make such a request, the Jade Emperor immediately had the idea of diverting the trouble to the east.
On the surface, without showing any expression, the Jade Emperor glanced at Nezha and said, "Do you want to go and help Luo Fu and help him establish a god system?"
"This…" Nezha suddenly laughed dryly. He actually didn't think that much. Influenced by the Barren Worm, coupled with his own personality, Nezha is quite unaccustomed to the Pantheon, which is content with pleasure.
Luo Fu's appearance has reignited Nezha's impulse to adventure and seek excitement.
"Alright." The Jade Emperor looked as if he was following the flow and said to Nezha, "Then you can go. Although Luo Fu is not of our race, he is still related to our Chinese God System. You can help him for the time being!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Nezha, overjoyed, quickly bowed to the Jade Emperor and then left the Pantheon impatiently!
Nezha's departure is a good thing for the Chinese God System itself.
Even the Jade Emperor and others can't wait for Nezha to come back as late as possible.
After departing, Nezha followed the Jade Emperor's instructions, erasing Luo Fu's spatial imprint on the Chinese pantheon's territory. He then left the Pantheon directly, heading towards Earth.
Unbeknownst to him, a massive trouble, which was also a huge opportunity, was about to come knocking.
Using his spatial abilities, Luo Fu returned to Earth in an instant, appearing in Hong Kong, which, having lost its last temple, was now overlapping with the Dark Dimension.
Doing his best to rescue ordinary Earthlings from the clutches of the Dark Dimension's influence, Wang suddenly saw Luo Fu's figure.
As the person once most trusted by the Ancient One, the Supreme Sorcerer,
Wang naturally knew of Luo Fu's special nature.
At this moment, the Ancient One had just left, and Dormammu, the ruler of the Dark Dimension, had suddenly discovered it.
Even facing Luo Fu, Wang couldn't help but be cautious.
"Lord Luo Fu, what brings you here this time...?"
Wang cautiously looked at Luo Fu, fearing that Luo Fu, like Dormammu, the ruler of the Dark Dimension, had come to take advantage of the situation.
It's no wonder Wang was so cautious; dimensional gods are, in themselves, a huge transformation in the level of life.
Dormammu, before merging with the Dark Dimension, couldn't be considered particularly evil, but in the end, he succumbed to the darkness, completely becoming the Supreme Sorcerer's mortal enemy.
Luo Fu was also a dimensional god; the Ancient One trusted him, but that didn't mean that the other sorcerers of Kamar-Taj could be like the Ancient One.
After all, the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj, although the source of their power came from borrowing the power of dimensional gods, were constantly fighting against enemies from other dimensions.
"Wang! Are you worried that I might attack Earth too?" Luo Fu glanced at Wang, jokingly, before focusing his gaze on the ever-expanding Dark Dimension.
"The Ancient One's successor is currently facing Dormammu inside?"
Wang hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Indeed, Lord Luo Fu, have you come to help Kamar-Taj deal with Dormammu?"
Luo Fu nodded slightly and said, "That's right. The Ancient One gave me a lot of help in the past, so now that Kamar-Taj is in trouble, of course, I won't stand idly by."
Although Luo Fu spoke righteously, Wang didn't dare to be careless in the slightest.
The current Earth really couldn't withstand any more torment.
Dormammu alone had brought the entire Kamar-Taj to a standstill.
Although this was partly due to Kaecilius's active defection to the Dark Dimension, the more crucial reason was the Ancient One's decisive hands-off approach.
You should know that because of Luo Fu's appearance, various major events in Marvel were already in chaos. Although, under the inertia of history, some things that were supposed to happen still happened, the order of events was clearly reversed.
Not to mention anything else, the Twilight of the Gods in Asgard, in theory, absolutely shouldn't have happened so early. Yet, because of Luo Fu, even before Stephen Strange had joined Kamar-Taj, the Twilight of the Gods had already ended.
Oddly enough, the Ancient One, perhaps believing in Luo Fu's trustworthiness, chose to step aside and leave everything to Luo Fu, even though Stephen Strange was just a half-baked sorcerer.
She went to enjoy her retirement life ahead of time.
The current Stephen Strange definitely didn't have the strength of the future Doctor Strange. Although in terms of perseverance, the two were not far apart, even facing Dormammu, as long as Stephen Strange continued to use that shameless time loop, he still had a chance to force Dormammu to withdraw from Earth.
But ultimately, a lack of strength was still a lack of strength.
Otherwise, Wang wouldn't be so wary of Luo Fu now.
Although Luo Fu had already stated his intentions, Wang still didn't dare to let his guard down.
Ignoring Wang, Luo Fu glanced at the Dark Dimension but didn't easily step into it.
Even though he still retained his body in the real world, Luo Fu was, in the final analysis, a true dimensional god, a Lord of Hell.
Once he stepped into the Dark Dimension, who knew what Dormammu's attitude would be.
Of course, Luo Fu wouldn't forget that the Ancient One had tricked the energy of countless dimensional gods, including Dormammu, who was the most unlucky, in order to help him.
The Ancient One had already gone to follow the Eternal God; this debt could only be attributed to Luo Fu.
Perhaps Dormammu's hatred for Luo Fu had surpassed that of the Ancient One.
After all, the Ancient One had only secretly stolen the energy of the Dark Dimension to maintain her life force, waiting for the next Supreme Sorcerer successor to appear.
But the Dark Dimension energy that Luo Fu obtained was definitely no less than Dormammu having his flesh cut off.
In Dormammu's eyes, Luo Fu was probably the real culprit.
Once he entered the Dark Dimension, Dormammu would probably fight Luo Fu to the death first.
Although the current Luo Fu might not be inferior to Dormammu, after entering the Dark Dimension, Dormammu's home ground, Luo Fu didn't have the confidence to defeat him.
After hesitating for a moment outside the Dark Dimension, Luo Fu looked at Wang and said, "I'm going to unfold my dimension here."
Wang's heart sank instantly.
Unfold his dimension? What did this mean? Could it be that Luo Fu was also going to attack Earth?
At the thought of this possibility, golden magic circles instantly appeared on Wang's hands.
Compared to the Ancient One, who could shape magic into the shape of a folding fan so vividly, the plasticity of the magic in Wang's hands was obviously much rougher, barely maintaining an appearance that wouldn't affect its use.
Seeing this, Luo Fu frowned slightly, and the Sword of Night Sky instantly appeared in his hand.
Along with the uniquely shaped Sword of Night Sky, being gently waved,
Four Swords of Night Sky, appearing out of thin air, instantly pinned Wang down, forming a special cage, trapping Wang firmly inside.
Just as Wang wanted to rush out, he was surprised to find that the dimension door of Kamar-Taj couldn't be opened at all within this cage.
As for forcibly breaking through the cage, it was even more impossible, because even Wang's magic would be ignited upon touching the cage, which was filled with a hint of red light.
This cage was one of Luo Fu's gains from the Pantheon during this period.
When helping Asgard resolve the Twilight of the Gods, Luo Fu had personally come into contact with the Eternal Flame.
Now, the cage that trapped Wang was actually a barrier that Luo Fu had created by combining the Four Violet Flames Formation and the Four Crimson Flames Formation from the Naruto world, with the Eternal Flame as its core.
The prevention of spatial abilities was the top priority, even the dimension door of Kamar-Taj couldn't be opened, and the Mirror Dimension was also a key point of the blockade.
Who made him the most knowledgeable about Kamar-Taj's magic?
It could only be said that Wang had run into the muzzle of a gun, and the four divided sword bodies of the Sword of Night Sky could firmly anchor on the spatial coordinates.
You should know that the Sword of Night Sky was not only incredibly powerful in itself, but it also possessed the power of channeling the Rainbow Bridge.
And the Rainbow Bridge was, in itself, Asgard's powerful planet-destroying weapon.
Not to mention how much powerful energy was needed to break the barrier cage from the inside, simply from the more straightforward outside, it would require at least an equivalent planet-destroying level of power to do so.
After trapping Wang, Luo Fu wasn't worried that he could escape.
Being in the cage, Wang glared at Luo Fu with his eyes wide open, "Lord Luo Fu, do you really want to devour Earth? Don't forget how much help the Supreme Sorcerer gave you."
Too lazy to pay attention to the stubborn Wang.
Luo Fu was very clear that the only way to repel Dormammu from the Dark Dimension and rescue Stephen Strange from the Dark Dimension was to use a dimension to fight against a dimension.
Anyway, Luo Fu would never take such a risk by venturing into the Dark Dimension alone.
And opening the Kamui Dimension on Earth was a taboo of Kamar-Taj.
Regardless of whether Wang believed that Luo Fu had no designs on Earth, he wouldn't agree to such a thing.
Since that was the case, Luo Fu could only ignore him and instantly control him, lest Wang cause trouble.
Although Wang couldn't affect Luo Fu's performance, Wang was, after all, the person the Ancient One trusted the most.
Luo Fu couldn't just kill him directly.
Without Wang's interference, the power of Luo Fu's Kamui Dimension instantly descended into the real universe, completely overlapping with Earth, and also overlapping with the Dark Dimension!
