American Comics: The Matrix

Chapter 497 Chasing the Phoenix!
Outside the universe.

In the void, two figures slowly emerged.

Dr. Maodang, holding a cane, somehow managed to remain in this vacuum.

Perhaps he was no longer an ordinary human being.

Beside him was a somewhat bewildered Thor.

"You said the Phoenix Force is in Regidormon, I know that place well, but why did you bring me here?" Thor asked curiously.

This place is in the middle of nowhere, and it's still some distance away from the nearest supermassive cosmic cluster.

“This is outside the multiverse, on the outskirts of the White Chamber,” Mutual Explanation explained. “The Phoenix Force is reawakened here.”

“It is not accurate to say that He is in Regidmont. The correct statement is that His destination is Regidmont, and we must intercept Him before He arrives at Regidmont.”

"Then why not just go to Regidormon?" Thor had barely finished speaking when he realized he had asked a stupid question.

The universe is locked, and although Regidmon is a pocket dimension, it still exists in relation to the universe.

He is unable to return now.

"But how can the Phoenix Force enter our universe?"

“Because His power is immense, all the power in the universe belongs to the Phoenix Force, and He is also the sum of all the power in the universe,” Paradox explained. “Of course, the most crucial point is that He has guidance. A portion of the Phoenix Force remains in Regidormon.”

"This connection allows Him to enter Regidmon smoothly."

Violence!!

At that moment, a piercing cry resounded in Thor's soul.

In the hall of origin of all things in the universe, the noble phoenix has awakened!

Magnificent flames burst forth like lasers, and the phoenix stood tall, its burning feathers shimmering like nebulae!
"Is this the phoenix?"

Thor was deeply shocked.

Even though they were separated by trillions of light-years, a distance of countless universes, he was still awestruck by the power of the phoenix.

“This is not a force that a human can withstand!” he protested loudly.

“You didn’t say that when you were at the World Library,” Mao Dun retorted, contradicting himself.

The more confident Thor was then, the more pathetic he is now.

"Using my body as a vessel for the phoenix, what's the difference between that and stuffing the sun into an Earthling's body? I'd die in a second!"

"It's not that slow!"

Mao Dun chuckled, "But this is the most feasible method. To gain the power to rival the Ivory King, you must possess the Phoenix Force. Thor, you don't want to disappoint Loki, do you?"

Thor:? ? ?
Dr. Contradictory, are you American or Japanese?

"hurry up!"

"There's no time to hesitate, He must take action!"

In that instant, the phoenix transformed into a streak of fire, leaving behind a dazzling trail of flames amidst its cry that resounded throughout the infinite universe.

"this!"

Thor was too anxious to think, and his body acted instinctively, swinging Mjolnir and turning into lightning to give chase!
Mjolnir tore through the dimensional barrier, and thunder roared like the horn of creation.

Ahead, the phoenix's wings swept across the stars, and the extinguished stars behind it turned into cold tombstones.

Flames spanning several galaxies are surging forward at a speed that tears reality apart.

It is not a physical entity, but a manifestation of the will of the universe. With each flap of its fiery wings, it causes the nebulae along its path to collapse and be reborn, as if it is breathing.

Lightning is chasing!
"Stop!"

Thor let out a thunderous roar.

His speed was already approaching the speed of light, and he had almost transformed into lightning, or even light itself!
However, this was still far from the phoenix. In the blink of an eye, Thor could barely even catch a glimpse of the phoenix.

"That's not okay."

Dr. Contradictory took a single step that covered tens of millions of light-years. Countless moments of time seemed to have no effect on him; that step was both an instant and an eternity. "Thor, I'll help you activate the Rainbow Bridge."

"what?"

Before Thor could even be surprised, the golden light of the Rainbow Bridge exploded beneath his feet.

The Rainbow Bridge was originally a weapon that could only be used for rapid movement within the World Tree's range. Outside of his original universe, Thor would not have been able to summon the Rainbow Bridge.

He didn't have time to ask how the contradiction was achieved, because the phoenix had already gone far away.

Those universes illuminated by the flames seemed to be reborn at that moment; the flames destroyed everything, but they also brought new life.

An era has ended, and a new era has begun.

The rainbow's rays stretch across countless multiverses, connecting countless cosmic bubbles with the glow of the rainbow, resembling an ancient and enormous tree.

Thor was traveling inside this great tree.

Even the contradictions that created all this cannot help but exclaim: "A great miracle."

"Bant supported the entire omnipotent universe with the World Tree!"

The so-called omnipotent universe encompasses the virtual world, the real world, and all the myriad phenomena of all worlds.

Not only Marvel, but also DC, and other works, all fall under the concept of an omnipotent universe.

Beyond the omnipotent universe, there are also concepts such as the super-universe, the multiverse, and the monoverse.

Just a moment ago, Dr. Contradiction used the power of the future to project the Rainbow Bridge of the future into the present moment.

At that point in time, the young World Tree in Regdogon had grown into a colossal entity that obscured the entire universe.

Let's turn our attention back to Thor.

With the help of the Rainbow Bridge, he caught up with the phoenix once again.

Countless dimensions and worlds swept past him; he saw countless versions of himself die, and ancient gods look up in awe.

"Shoot Him down, Mjolnir!"

Seeing that the phoenix refused to stop, Thor steeled himself and let out a roar.

He squeezed out all the power from his divine body, raised Mjolnir high above his head, stirring up storms in all known universes, and forcefully hurled the reforged Mjolnir away.

The chaotic energy of the entire void converged madly towards him, and the lightning was no longer a violent blue-white, but a blazing white that was compressed to the extreme, symbolizing the beginning of the universe!

boom! ! !
A beam of light powerful enough to tear apart the structure of the multiverse roared as it hurtled toward the flames.

It was like an arrow striking the wing of a bird.

The blazing fire feathers burst forth with countless sparks, illuminating the boundless universe.

Only at this moment did the phoenix finally stop and linger for him.

But those eyes, devoid of pupils, held only indifference to Thor's insignificance; He merely "breathed," and boundless power descended upon Thor.

Those soaring sparks, each one capable of destroying countless civilizations.

With a mere, slight unfolding of those fiery wings that spanned the void, pure life and destruction transformed into an invisible torrent, which was then applied to Thor.

He understood what Saul was asking for.

He granted Saul his wish and he received it.

Endless flames gathered, and the power of the phoenix enveloped Thor!
However, it transcended the realm of light and heat, and surpassed the level of laws. In an instant, Thor's proud Asgardian divine body became as fragile as a candle in the wind before the origin of the universe.

"what!!!"

Thor let out a bloodcurdling scream.

The divine armor vaporized, and the body, strong enough to withstand neutron star-like matter, was instantly carbonized and peeled away under the power of the flames, revealing the bones inside that shimmered with indomitable lightning.

He was like the burnt-out core of a meteorite ejected by a star explosion.

Ugly and incomplete.
