Chapter 334 Odin’s Request

The Mind Gem, the embodiment of cosmic consciousness, can enable the user to enhance their psychic abilities and enter the mind of a living being. It can read, manipulate, modify, create, and protect the spirit of life, as well as enhance the user's spiritual power and psychic abilities.

Over the past three years, with the help of the Mind Gem, Cheng Long's spiritual awareness has far surpassed that of a demon cultivator in the late stage of the tribulation. With just a thought, he can search the entire North America.

It is dozens of times stronger than before entering the Marvel world.

In addition, with the help of the Mind Gem, Cheng Long has enhanced his ability to mediate creation to an incredible level, and can give the created people or large creatures independent thoughts.

To put it more intuitively, his attainments in magical powers have reached the level of Changmei Zhenren, the leader of the Emei Sect in Shushan.

Can create living people.

Looking at the energy of the Soul Gem continuously flowing into the Black Lotus, if Cheng Long said that he didn't care at all, he would be deceiving himself.

But he was also reluctant to interrupt the output, as the black lotus was about to mature, so how could he give up halfway?

"Oh right, the Ancient Winter Coffin!"

Cheng Long's mind moved, and the ancient winter coffin hidden in the storage column instantly appeared in front of him.

As the energy of the ancient winter coffin overflowed, waves of icy cold surged in all directions like a raging wave.

His room was instantly frozen into an ice room.

"Long, are you okay?"

The Scarlet Witch, dressed in home clothes, wrapped in an apron and holding a spatula in her hand, hurried to the door of the room and asked anxiously.

One month can change a lot of people.

Wanda, who had just been brought back, was still a fierce and cold beauty.

A month later, she became a woman who was even more dependent on Mr. Cheng than Natasha. In order to play the role of the magic servant well, she even took away Irina's job.

The idle female Winter Soldier had to follow Natasha to help the Avengers.

Therefore, most of the time, there were only Cheng Long and Wanda at Natasha's house. Because there were no other people around, every corner of the house was left with traces of their extravagant behavior.

Since Wanda was conquered by Mr. Cheng, her strength has been growing day by day, especially after she got the Shura Book, the speed of her cultivation growth is unreasonable.

She improved almost every day. In just one month, her magic power caught up with Natasha and she had reached the middle stage of foundation building. She estimated that in three months at most, she would be able to enter the golden elixir stage.

I have to say that this woman is really the darling of the Marvel world. She is born with the ability to master chaos magic. If she breaks down one day and starts to go berserk, she can even destroy the universe and even the multiverse.

The reason why her cultivation progressed so quickly was also related to chaos magic.

The most common function of chaos magic is to modify reality. Scarlet Witch can use this ability to easily modify reality, including but not limited to converting matter, modifying cause and effect, creating objects out of thin air, distorting space and time, creating clones, creating latitudes, modifying the laws of physics, etc.

In other words, as long as Wanda believes that she should break through today, then she will be able to break through and use the energy provided by chaos magic to transform her own cultivation.

Honestly speaking, the reason why she reached the middle stage of foundation building in a month was because Wanda was too narrow-minded and bold. She directly believed that she could break through the tribulation realm and even become an immortal by practicing for one night, and then the reality modification function of chaos magic could help her achieve it.

She can even use chaos magic to help Cheng Long and Natasha improve their cultivation level.

Of course, that requires familiarity with chaos magic to achieve this. It is easy to go wrong if you reach the top directly, so Cheng Long did not tell Wanda about this. He just wanted to disguise her as a cultivation genius and make a little progress every day.

Anyway, by the time Cheng Long leaves, Wanda will definitely be able to practice to the point where she can tear Thanos apart with her bare hands and fight Odin and Ancient One alone.

Moreover, he is not a fragile mage with a weak body...

"Wanda, the door is not locked, come in!"

While Cheng Long manipulated the Ancient Winter Coffin and the Mind Gem to supply energy to the Black Lotus, he observed the changes in the Black Lotus. After adding the frost energy of the Ancient Winter Coffin, the originally deep and dark Black Lotus had an additional chill that could freeze the soul.

It can be foreseen that the ultimate function of this black lotus is closely related to energy supply.

The abilities of the Mind Gem and the Ancient Winter Casket may both work on the Black Lotus.

Click!

Wanda unlocked the door and felt the chill blowing in her face, and she shivered subconsciously.

"Long, this black lotus is so beautiful. I can feel that it is very powerful."

"Of course, this is a treasure I have nurtured for many years..."

Cheng Long had a proud look on his face. The black lotus, which had absorbed so much energy but had not matured, would definitely turn into an innate spiritual treasure after it matured.

It is even very likely to be a top-grade innate spiritual treasure - the twelfth-grade black lotus of destruction!

With the constant energy output of the soul gem, at the very least, it can grow into a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

He has this confidence.

Because the energy source, the 'Ancient Winter Coffin', is a low-grade innate spiritual treasure.

"It absorbs too much. If it continues like this, the Ancient Winter Coffin and the Mind Gem will be shattered." Wanda was reluctant to part with these two treasures. Although the Black Lotus was beautiful and powerful, the Ancient Winter Coffin and the Mind Gem were equally extraordinary.

It's such a pity that it's ruined like this.

"It's okay. If you feel cold, just stay outside."

"No, I want to see it come out."

Wanda held the spatula and sat quietly by the side.

As time went by, the ancient winter coffin, which originally emitted a deep blue light, gradually turned into a pale white color, and the almost infinite power of the law of frost inside was reduced to nothing.

click!
Suddenly, a crack appeared on the surface of the ancient winter coffin!
clack clack...

In less than ten seconds, the cracks became dense like a spider web. Half a minute later, they exploded with a bang and turned into starlight that was completely absorbed by the black lotus.

Fortunately, the Mind Gem was still strong, but the yellow light on its surface was much dimmer than before.

……

SHIELD.

"Director, the abnormal energy fluctuations in Queens, New York are still continuing. Do we need to send someone to investigate?" Agent Hill, the second-in-command of S.H.I.E.L.D., came to Nick Fury with a document in his arms and asked.

"No, just keep an eye on the surroundings and make sure no one disturbs Mr. Cheng."

Nick Fury has already listed Cheng Long as a person who cannot be offended. Since three years ago, Cheng Long said that one thousand death row inmates can buy ten years of youth. Since then, many places that had abolished the death penalty have reinstated it, and criminals who were originally sentenced to life imprisonment have become death row inmates.

Even some people who would previously have received light sentences will now be sentenced to death as long as they meet the death penalty criteria.

This also means that criminals in the West are becoming more and more polite, and the number of crimes such as robbery and rape is decreasing year by year.

Although the number of death row inmates who died at Cheng Long's hands in the past few years is extremely high, reaching as high as four or five hundred thousand, his existence has indeed changed the social atmosphere.

In Gu Yi's words, Cheng Long's changes to the earth are positive. Those who were not afraid of going to jail and even wanted to eat public food before are as honest as quails and no longer dare to mess around outside.

But people die for money and birds die for food. There are always people who are not afraid of death and commit various crimes for high rewards.

Especially in places like the West where freedom is valued, what they lack the least is people who put their heads above their belts, so every month there are wealthy people calling, eager to do business with Cheng Long.

It’s just that the price of death row prisoners is getting higher and higher, and ordinary people can’t afford it at all…

……

I don’t know how long it took.

The black lotus absorbed infinite energy, and its roots and leaves withered rapidly. The black lotus pedestal that fell out of the stalk exuded a vast, terrifying aura.

"Is this the Black Lotus of Destruction?"

Cheng Long looked at the dull and nearly shattered soul gem in his hand, then reached out and touched the shiny black lotus platform floating in front of him.

The legendary Twelve-Rank Black Lotus of Destruction belonged to the Demon Ancestor Rāhu, whose whereabouts were unknown after his death. Sitting on the lotus platform, it has amazing defense and can absorb violent auras.

The black lotus in front of me looks quite good.

When his fingertips touched the lotus platform, he could even feel the joy of the lotus platform.

"You look so happy, it seems my guess was right..."

Cheng Long was delighted and suddenly released a burst of magic power to wrap around the lotus platform floating in the air.

He originally thought that it would take a long time to refine this innate spiritual treasure, but the moment the magic power enveloped the lotus platform, the World-Destroying Black Lotus took the initiative to recognize its master.

Then, it turned into a black stream of light and sank into the dantian.

"Long, how did the black lotus get into your body?"

Wanda asked in shock.

Although she received the Shura Book from Cheng Long, she did not know much about spiritual practice and had no idea that more advanced treasures could enter the body of the holder to nourish him.

"Don't worry, I just refined it and put it in my dantian to warm it up!"

Cheng Long gently patted the back of Wanda's hand, signaling her to relax, and then focused his attention on the dim mind gem.

The gem made the black lotus of destruction possible, but it was almost sucked apart. The Infinity Gems are not truly infinite. Fortunately, an extra ancient winter coffin was provided when the black lotus was powered.

Otherwise, if we only rely on the Mind Gem, I really don’t know when we can feed the Black Lotus of Destruction.

"Long, didn't you say that each of the Infinity Stones possesses infinite energy? How come the Mind Stone has been sucked into this state?" Looking at the dull Mind Stone, Wanda seemed to have met a man who had been rewarding herself for several months in a row, causing her to become skinny and could die at any time.

It's ridiculous!

That mysterious black lotus could even absorb the Infinity Stones and make them dim.

"It's okay. The gem will recover in a few years."

Cheng Long didn't know how to explain it, so he just evaded the question.

Wanda was very kind. Seeing that the man was stumped by her question, she did not ask any more questions. She smiled and said, "We have been in the room for a long time. You must be hungry. What do you want to eat? I will make it."

"I want to eat you."

Cheng Long pulled Wanda, who was about to get up, into his arms and bent down to kiss the beautiful woman's red lips.

Wanda, who was already used to being bullied by him, quickly responded emotionally.

Just as the thunder in the sky was about to cause the fire in the earth and the battle was about to break out, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the door.

"What a fucking bummer!"

Mr. Cheng reluctantly let go of the beauty in his arms, then got up and walked out reluctantly.

Wanda looked at the man who was in a bad mood, smiled and grabbed his hand, interlocked their fingers, and said gently: "Long, I am your demon servant. I can be your servant anytime you want. Don't be angry."

"If you want me not to be angry, you have to..." Cheng Long bit Wanda's earlobe and whispered something in her ear, causing the beautiful woman's cheeks to instantly turn bright red.

"I don't want to talk about hundreds of millions of import and export trade with you tonight. Keep being angry with you. I'm going to the kitchen to cook." Wanda shook off the man's big hand and ran to the kitchen with a red face.

Wanda is different from Natasha, she is more shy and can’t rush some things.

Looking at the woman who escaped into the kitchen, Cheng Long smiled, walked quickly to the door, and invited the uninvited guest in.

"Old Ding, why are you here with me instead of being the king in the God's Realm?" Cheng Long poured a cup of tea for the God King Odin and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Cheng, I want to ask you a favor."

Odin's time is approaching, and he only has a few years left to live. His only wish now is to find a way to stop the coming Ragnarok.

A month ago, the Supreme Sorcerer Ancient One pointed him in the direction.

If possible, he really didn't want to sacrifice his daughter's freedom, but the twilight of the gods was imminent, forcing him to make a decision.

"Please tell me. I will help you if I can."

Cheng Long thought that Odin had asked him to help look after the divine realm after his death, so he acted very relaxed.

Unexpectedly, Odin's next request made his jaw drop.

"No, Old Ding, Hela is your biological daughter and Thor's biological sister. How could you think of capturing her and giving her to me?" When Cheng Long heard that Odin was going to capture the goddess of death Hela and give her to him to deal with as he pleased, the way he looked at Odin changed.

This old man is worthy of being the God King who roams the nine realms and dominates the universe. When he gets ruthless, he can even send his daughter away as a slave.

"Cheng, Master Ancient One said it very clearly. Only you can solve the Ragnarok of Asgard. If sacrificing Hela can exchange for peace and stability in the realm of God, I think it is worth it." Odin said solemnly.

“In fact, if you want to resolve Ragnarok, you don’t have to let Hela down. Just give me the Eternal Flame.”

The Black Lotus of Destruction that Cheng Long had just cultivated could absorb all kinds of violent energies. The Eternal Fire and the power of frost in the ancient winter coffin were both types of violent energies, and were very suitable for devouring and enhancing the quality of the Black Lotus of Destruction.

Anyone who has seen Thor 3 knows that the key to Ragnarok is not the goddess of death Hela, but the eternal fire, the sacred object of the fire giants.

Without the Eternal Flame, Surtur couldn't even defeat Thor, let alone the goddess of death Hela.

Hela's strength is closely related to Asgard. The longer she stays there, the stronger her power becomes. So she will only occupy the realm of God and bully her two useless brothers, and will never create the twilight of the gods.

Maybe a few people will be killed, but after making an example of them, the remaining people in the Divine Realm will be able to survive.

Odin obviously didn't think that Ragnarok would be so easy to resolve. He said with a bitter face, "Nephew Cheng, as long as you are willing to help discipline my bad-tempered daughter, you can choose any item in the treasury..."
