Chapter 257 Even Dimensional Lords Are Different
"Too?"

In the dark void, the dark dragon, whose body was already over eight hundred meters long, raised its head and said with a disdainful look, "Don't flatter yourself. You, a mortal who stole the authority of the gods, do you deserve to be called the Lord of Dimensions?"

"What did you say?!"

Upon hearing this, Dormammu flew into a rage, his enormous, star-like eyes instantly blazing with light, unleashing two dark purple pillars of flame as large as the moon.

To be honest, Lin Yu's current size is already quite large.

But before the giant face conjured by Dormammu, it was still as small as an ant.

In an instant, the dark purple pillar of flame pierced through the void and engulfed the pitch-black dragon.

The violent energy surged and raged like flames, easily shattering space and leaving a dark purple energy vortex with a diameter of more than five thousand miles where the dark dragon had originally hovered.

Within the vortex, all matter is annihilated by energy.

Even the dark creatures within the area of ​​effect were not spared from this attack.

Even so, the Ancient One showed no concern whatsoever. Instead, she smiled and said with a light laugh, "It seems you've already discovered the difference between yourself and Dormammu..."

"Not bad!"

The sound, completely unaffected, came from the vortex.

The next second, the violent dark purple energy paused, and then, under the control of another will, it rotated in reverse, rapidly contracting towards the center as if time were flowing backward.

what? !

The pupils of the star-like purple flames suddenly contracted as they stared incredulously at the center of the vortex.

These energies were clearly in the form He was most familiar with, but for some reason they had escaped His control, and no matter how He tried to use them, they did not respond at all.

"How is this possible?!"

Dormammu gritted his teeth, both shocked and furious.

Amidst the shock and anger, a lingering fear, like a maggot clinging to a bone, quietly crept into his heart.

Without the slightest hesitation, Dormammu roared and used his authority to shatter the space around the vortex.

The space within a radius of ten thousand miles collapsed instantly under His will, and countless dark cracks spread wildly like lightning, turning the originally dark void into a black mirror full of cracks.

Even so, the space at the very center of the vortex remained completely unaffected.

The dark spaces would suddenly stop as if they had received a command the moment they approached the vortex, and could no longer advance even an inch towards the center!

At the same time, the massive dark purple energy vortex finally contracted to its limit.

A colossal dark dragon, over a thousand miles long, emerged from it, its jet-black wings blotting out the sky. Even compared to the face conjured by Dormammu, it was at least the size of a mouth!

"Roar!"

The dragon's roar was deafening; the dark dragon roared to the sky, unleashing a terrifying aura of darkness without restraint.

Sensing this aura, all the surviving dark creatures outside the range couldn't help but cower and tremble, a deep-seated fear and reverence welling up in their hearts.

Even Varna's eyes widened, his gaze shifting between Dormammu and Lin Yu in astonishment and confusion, as if he couldn't quite tell who was the true lord of the Dark Dimension.

"No! This is impossible!"

Dormammu roared hysterically, the deafening sound spreading at a speed that defied the laws of physics, shaking the decaying celestial bodies floating in the surrounding void and pulling them toward the dark dragon that stretched for thousands of miles.

"What's impossible?"

Lin Yu sneered: "A frog in a well, how dare it speak of the ocean?"

Before the words were finished, the jet-black dragon claw suddenly swung out, mimicking the action, and pulled at the decaying stars that shot towards it from a distance that was measured in astronomical units.

"boom!"

Two planets of similar size collided, squeezed, and annihilated each other.

In just a moment, the energy of the impact exceeded the limits that matter could withstand.

The surface of the celestial body was shattered and peeled away like a fragile eggshell, with huge plates being thrown into space. The material that impacted the core was completely decomposed and annihilated under terrifying high temperature and pressure.

In the next instant, a dazzling light that defies description suddenly burst forth.

A terrifying energy shockwave, carrying matter ejected from the two celestial bodies, twisted into a violent torrent of destruction, shooting out in a ring towards the surrounding deep and dark universe.

Such a terrifying collision scene is only the tip of the iceberg of the two's battle.

If we broaden our perspective to a more macroscopic level, we can see that throughout the entire dark dimension, countless decaying stars collide with each other in the same way, triggering a series of unimaginable and terrifying explosions.

The once dark and desolate void now resembled a mirror-like lake tossed with countless stones, rippling with violent energy waves.

At the same time, the ripples collided with each other as they spread, triggering an even more violent energy storm.

Space was torn apart by the collision of energy, and matter was annihilated under the crushing force of energy... Even the powerful Sorcerer Supreme, faced with the aftershocks of this energy that were enough to destroy many galaxies, could only choose to avoid its sharp edge and escape into the mirror space, which was unaffected by reality.

Gazing at the catastrophic destruction outside the mirror space, the vampire lord Varna, with a complex expression, slowly said:

"It can open a mirror space in the dark dimension..."

"Ancient One, your mastery of dimensional magic has improved once again!"

The Ancient One shook his head and said, "It's not that I've become stronger. It's that Lord Lin is vying with Dormammu for the authority of the Dimensional Lord, which has caused their control over the authority of space to loosen!"

Varna stared intently at Gu Yidao: "When the snipe and the clam fight, you want to be the fisherman who benefits?"

Gu Yi was taken aback upon hearing this, then chuckled and shook her head, saying, "It's just a dark dimension. If I offend the one I invited because of this, wouldn't it be a loss?"

"……only?"

Varna grinned, revealing sharp teeth, and chuckled, "It seems you've really improved a lot during my years of exile, now you don't even put the Dark Dimension in your eyes!"

"It's alright, only slightly better than you, a stubborn and closed-minded guy."

Ancient One retorted habitually, then turned to look at the scene outside the mirror space and said calmly, "Moreover, to describe this battle as a fight between a snipe and a clam is somewhat insulting to that person..."

"..."

Varna's smile faded, and he asked with a serious expression, "Just who is that guy?"

Ancient One glanced at him and said, "Didn't Dormammu already say that?"

"The Lord of Dimensions?"

"That's right!"

"impossible!"

Varna said firmly, "I have spent far more time in the Dark Dimension than before, during which I have witnessed Dormammu's battles with other dimensional lords."

"But no matter how powerful a dimensional lord is, once he comes to the Dark Dimension, he will surely suffer a defeat in front of Dormammu."

"But this guy actually managed to infiltrate the Dark Dimension and even compete with Dormammu for the authority of the Dimensional Lord. This is something that no ordinary Dimensional Lord could do!"

Gu Yi said calmly, "That only shows that your understanding of the Dimensional Lords is too shallow."

"Indeed, by mastering the Dark Dimension, Dormammu can obtain almost unlimited dark energy, enabling him to control elements, telepathically communicate, teleport, resurrect the dead, achieve immortality, and alter the rules—all things that are unimaginable to ordinary people."

"But even so, He is still not the true lord of dimensions."

"In Lord Lin's words, Dormammu was just a mortal who stole the authority of the dimensional sovereign. Even if he completely merged his soul into the dark dimension, he was still essentially the same dark mage he was back then."

"This can be seen from the fact that His authority could be taken away."

"Lin Yu is different. He is a born deity originating from the dimension itself. No existence can shake his authority. Even if he voluntarily relinquishes his authority in the future, it will only lead to the destruction of the entire dimension along with him..."

At this point, Gu paused, looked at the stunned Varna, and said calmly, "Now, you should understand the difference between Lord Lin and Dormammu, right?"

Of course, these are only some of the reasons why Lin Yu was able to seize power.

There is an even more important reason that the Ancient One did not mention—that is, the dimension controlled by Lin Yu is clearly at least one level higher than Dormammu's Dark Dimension!
The difference between the two is like the difference between a multiverse and a monoverse.

No matter how powerful the Dark Dimension is, it is still just a pocket universe belonging to the Marvel multiverse.

Even if Dormammu could alter the rules, he would still have to abide by a larger and broader set of rules!
But Lin Yu is different. In terms of his status, his inner universe is comparable to the entire Marvel multiverse.

This led to his near-overwhelming performance when facing Dormammu, allowing him to seize power in the Dark Dimension with minimal effort, even without his own consciousness intervening.

Regarding this matter, Gu Yi had only speculated and could not confirm it.

It wasn't until Lin Yu entered the Dark Dimension that he finally confirmed that this guy was indeed a high-ranking predator of Dormammu!
Upon hearing this, Varna's expression became complicated, knowing that Dormammu was no match for Lin Yu.

The Ancient One gave Varna a deep look, sighed softly, and said, "Varna, for the sake of our past friendship, I really don't want to be your enemy. You... don't make another mistake!"

"friendship?"

Varna snapped out of his daze and sneered, "You think you're worthy to talk to me about friendship?"

"Yes, I did consider you a friend, and even shared the Dark Book with you, but what about you?"

"For the sake of a mere mortal, he actually betrayed me and banished me to this dark dimension. If I didn't still have some trump cards, I'm afraid I would have been devoured by Dormammu long ago!"

"...Just a mere mortal?" Ancient One remained noncommittal, glancing at him indifferently. "You might not believe it, but that great being outside, currently battling Dormammu, seems to think of himself as a mortal too!"

"so what?"

Varna sneered, "Now that things have come to this, you're not still planning to use that same rhetoric to convince me, are you?"

"If you could really do that, how could things have come to this?"
