The True Use of the Myriad Tribulations Yin Spirit Yellow Springs Physique
Bai Cangshu’s body grew taller and taller. After his body had fully recovered, even Wanda as she was now could no longer slaughter him at will.
With qi flowing through him, Bai Cangshu himself had gained a certain resistance to all kinds of abilities. More importantly, his body had once again returned to a flawless state.
Even…
True Phoenix Blood (Extremely Rare): A trace of True Phoenix Blood dwells within you. You gain an additional 30% fire immunity and an additional 10% resistance to other authorities. (This effect increases as your True Phoenix Blood increases.)His first Nirvana had already granted him an exceptionally powerful trait, though it could not compare to a true precious art.
However, the description of the Ten Phoenix Nirvana Art clearly stated that as long as he could continue succeeding in Nirvana, this ability could eventually develop to the level of the Hundred Days Ten Phoenix Nirvana Art within the True Phoenix Precious Art.
By then, the Nirvana he could activate at will would allow Bai Cangshu to rapidly acquire all kinds of traits, authorities, and abilities.
His eyelids drooped as he ignored Tree Herder, who was holding up Odin’s blood on the ground.
Bai Cangshu coldly flew into the air and made a grasping motion. Artoria understood at once and leaped high into the sky as well.
But before leaving, the cold Knight King spoke to remind the dazed Tree Herder.
"Only by surviving do you have value."
To some extent, Artoria had already been influenced by Bai Cangshu’s way of doing things, whether it was the path of tyranny she now walked or her understanding of power.
Her thoughts were growing closer and closer to Bai Cangshu’s.
Just like in D45 World, that chaotic and broken world—no matter how highly she thought of that red-haired Saintess, she could do nothing for the world as a whole.
Only unmatched violence as cruel and resolute as Bai Cangshu’s could truly save humanity.
Before true darkness, humanity had no need for the teachings of a Benevolent King. They only needed the salvation of an overlord.
Thus, Artoria completely understood why Bai Cangshu had no interest in Tree Herder, who had come to join them of his own accord.
This man might possess a rare ability, but he was not someone with a strong heart.
When faced with Solomon’s overwhelming strength, he had placed nearly all his hope and his bets on Mercenary Tao, while he himself had neither the ability nor the resolve to break the deadlock.
If Bai Cangshu had truly been killed by Wanda earlier, Tree Herder would undoubtedly have been devoured by Solomon. In fact, Solomon would not even have needed to act—Snow Witch alone could have killed him.
This almost cowardly choice displeased Bai Cangshu.
Tree Herder was smart. From Artoria’s hint, he had also guessed the same outcome. Looking at Odin’s blood in his hand, he thought that no other reincarnators had entered this world, and that he had already struggled to make an impact here. What was he supposed to do…
Suddenly, a sinister gleam flashed in his eyes. While everyone’s attention remained fixed on Mercenary Tao, who was displaying that terrifying army, his body slowly sank and burrowed underground.
He rapidly approached Yun Wujiu, who had been frozen and rendered incapable of resistance. He intended to turn Yun Wujiu into a new divine envoy!
A divine envoy who wielded the Odinforce!
Bai Cangshu saw everything, and a faint smile finally appeared on his lips.
The next moment, countless Yin spirits followed Bai Cangshu away like a swarm of locusts. The sight was terrifying enough to drain the color from the faces of the surviving humans.
At the corner of a ruined shopping street, Ebony Maw, his expression grim, stood with the injured Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive. Looking up at the horrifying sight, he said,
"You mean we can only win this battle by summoning Lord Thanos?"
White Face watched Mercenary Tao squander power that should have belonged to her, her expression dark with fury.
Yes, she had always believed that everything Mercenary Tao had obtained should have been her power. If not for Mercenary Tao’s despicable act in the Jujutsu Kaisen world, taking advantage of her battle against Kai of the Fifth Element—
—and secretly seizing more ritual nodes, then this special physique capable of housing countless Yin spirits would have belonged to her!
Moreover, she arrogantly believed that this physique would have been far more powerful in her hands than in Mercenary Tao’s.
That martial freak Mercenary Tao was obsessed with flesh and martial arts. He had practically left the strongest aspect of this powerful physique unused.
Only now had he barely begun to make use of it.
Mercenary Tao’s earlier method of keeping the Yin spirits inside his body as "batteries" had nearly made White Face laugh.
Now, seeing Mercenary Tao finally begin to use those Yin spirits so efficiently, her heart bled.
"Mr. Ebony Maw, can’t you see reality yet? At least four or five heroes here are stronger than you. If Lord Thanos does not come, you will not be able to resolve this incident."
"Besides, Odin is already dead~"
White Face tossed out another great temptation. The death of Odin, lord of the Nine Realms, would in truth make many terrifying beings lose all their reservations about Earth.
As they spoke, they crossed the block. In the distance, the black-and-white angel seemed to have begun killing again. Yet this time, the two powerful heroines truly could suppress her, preventing her from so freely destroying New York.
White Face suddenly stopped. She heard several faint cries of alarm.
She had not heard such terrified sounds in a long time. With a casual swipe, Ebony Maw tore open the outer wall of a nearby store with telekinesis, revealing seven or eight humans hiding inside.
White Face almost instinctively revealed her malice. She walked toward them, and sure enough, the two potbellied men standing at the front and the blonde woman had gone pale and collapsed limply.
She extended her hand. Azure Flames burned at her fingertips. She had almost forgotten what it felt like to hold the power of life and death.
"Mom! Mom! Let me protect you!"
A childish voice rang out. The boy holding a Hulk doll with its head missing squeezed out of the crowd. There was no fear on his face as he spread his arms and shielded the others behind him.
"Parker!"
Amid the woman’s cry, White Face expressionlessly thrust her hand toward the boy. She disliked the expression on his face.
Someone who knew nothing of fear would naturally have no reverence for her.
The flames at her fingertips drifted toward the boy. Among the crowd, George, who had been cowering at the back, finally could not bear to watch his innocent younger brother die like this.
His entire body nearly rigid, he crashed forward. He had already imagined his fate—he would probably be burned to death by those flames. He only hoped that, before he died, he could tell his little brother—
Reality was reality. There was no romance, no fantasy, and… no heroes.
Bang!
A dull impact sounded. White Face stared at the blonde youth, who remained standing, and for a moment did not understand what had happened. The Azure Flames had already landed on him.
Shōnen Parker recalled that hero’s movements. His entire body was covered in black energy. One hand caught his off-balance brother, while the other blocked the icy blue flames.
Then his body abruptly spun.
Boom!
George’s body spun through the air. After stumbling two steps, he steadied himself, already back behind the crowd.
White Face stared at the Fox Fire blocked by Armament Haki, and her expression darkened further.
Damn Mercenary Tao, do you have to stop me even over something this trivial?!
Looking at the youth before her, completely covered in Armament Haki, with resolute eyes and an aura that was somehow growing even more majestic, she knew this could not be unrelated to Mercenary Tao.
"Hey!"
At that moment, a hearty voice rang out from the sky.
Ebony Maw, Parker, White Face, and everyone else looked up together. They saw a man floating in the air, with a female knight in black armor dangling from one hand.
Ebony Maw immediately became wary, but Bai Cangshu had little interest in him. Still, he could guess what White Face was thinking. If they could summon Thanos here, all the better.
He had become increasingly clear on what he needed to do in the time ahead. At this moment, he wanted as many powerful figures and factions as possible to be drawn in!
"White Face, come with me. Let’s take this world!"
Bai Cangshu extended his hand. White Face had no ability to resist and was pulled into the air by a force of attraction.
A rare look of panic appeared on her face, but Bai Cangshu simply grabbed her and shot into the sky.
On the ground, Shōnen Parker continued waving his hands. He wanted to tell that hero that he had protected everyone properly too.
But the other party did not respond at all, leaving Parker somewhat disappointed.
"Parker, what… what exactly is going on with you?!"
Amid the crowd’s chaos, Ebony Maw led his people into the darkness and vanished as well. He had no interest in killing these mortals just to show off his strength.
Besides… he now had to seriously consider that woman’s proposal.
That man who had just flown over from the sky was completely different from before. He hardly seemed like the same species anymore.
"Who are you? Stop right there!"
After the drastic changes in New York, Manhattan had been completely devastated, and everyone was already on edge. At that moment, the security forces at Osborn Tower saw a man with a war fan on his back walking straight toward the building with his arms crossed.
Everyone immediately drew their guns, aimed at him, and shouted warnings.
Uchiha Madara opened his eyes. The next moment, gunshots rang out one after another as the security forces began firing wildly at each other. One of them even stepped forward on his own initiative, disabled the access controls, and welcomed Uchiha Madara inside.
Uchiha Madara snorted. They had actually made the great Uchiha Madara come looking for some kind of black technology?!
He had already mostly forgotten about things like the Green Goblin Serum, but with the Sharingan, all he needed to do was find the person in charge here. Naturally, he could make that person reveal every valuable item one by one.
Elsewhere, inside the New York Sanctum, Doctor Strange’s expression was grave. Wong beside him had asked many times whether they should not act, given the attack New York was suffering.
But Doctor Strange only shook his head. He knew that once the Sanctum’s doors opened, it would ultimately lead to irreversible consequences.
Those people outside were all coveting the magic within the Sanctum.
Namikaze Minato, who was guarding outside the Sanctum’s coordinates, scratched his head. He repeatedly confirmed the location, only to discover that there was no Sanctum here at all, much less any way to enter and steal treasures.
However, he had always taken resurrection lightly, so he was not particularly enthusiastic about the mission. He simply planned to remain here and wait for an opportunity.
On another street, Peter Parker, dressed in a Spider-Man suit, looked at the three people blocking his path and felt somewhat at a loss.
"You… are you sure you have the right person?"
Black Face carefully sensed him but did not detect the special divine connection of the Spider Totem that White Face had described.
But to be safe, It still decided to capture him first.
Just as It raised Its katana, Millennium Worm launched Cursed Speech first.
"Sleep!"
Peter Parker’s mind went hazy. As he swayed, he fell to the ground.
Just as Bai Cangshu’s Yin spirits began looting everywhere, Bai Cangshu had already arrived in an icy world of extreme cold.
Antarctica, Lake Vostok.
Simply standing there, he could sense that beneath his feet was a terrifying existence with an incredibly high life level!
And that was precisely his target.
Bai Cangshu’s Mantra completely covered the surroundings, and he indeed detected traces of S.H.I.E.L.D. However, he did not care about their presence.
Light flashed in his hand, and a golden Holy Lance appeared.
Odin’s divine weapon, Gungnir!
Almost the instant the Holy Lance appeared, countless Runes emerged beneath the ice.
In some era of ancient times, a Thor of Asgard had fought the Symbiote Dragon Grendel sent by Nal, god of the void, here and sealed it in this place.
Now, in pursuit of a more powerful possibility for his physical body, Bai Cangshu had specifically come to find this earliest and most powerful symbiote creation.
Symbiote Dragon Grendel!
It was a piece of dark origin directly torn from the Living Abyss by Nal, Lord of the Abyss and god of symbiotes, then given will in the form of a dragon.
At its peak, It had invaded the galaxy and destroyed countless civilizations, though it was now sealed here.
Bai Cangshu slowly plunged Gungnir into the ice. Golden light began extending downward, and soon, he heard the sound of something beginning to collapse.
Along with it came abyss-like malice.
