Marvel: The Greatest Hero Era

Yesterday he could wait, but today he couldn't wait any longer. Zhao Chen was particularly eager to know some of the properties of the Cosmic Cube and how powerful he would become after absorbing them.

"Host has received the Cosmic Cube. Do you wish to begin absorbing it?"

"Yes."

Without a second thought, Zhao Chen answered immediately. As soon as he finished speaking, the Tesseract in his hand began to emit a blue light, which then turned into lightning.

The lightning gradually increased, and Zhao Chen subconsciously sat cross-legged on the ground, his hands holding the Cosmic Cube. The blue lightning transformed into a sphere, eventually enveloping Zhao Chen.

After completely enveloping Zhao Chen, the energy of the Cosmic Cube slowly entered Zhao Chen's body.

The energy of the Cosmic Cube is enormous, and Zhao Chen's physical body and internal strength have been enhanced. His physical resilience has increased several levels.

Including his internal strength, which is now much stronger than before, but that's not the most crucial thing. Zhao Chen's soul, that is, his life essence, has undergone a great change.

The rules governing this universe were etched into Zhao Chen's mind.

Chapter 755 The Rampage of Energy

Although the rules of the universe were engraved in Zhao Chen's mind, he had not yet fully grasped them. However, for Zhao Chen, it was only a matter of time before he could fully understand them.

Zhao Chen underwent a tremendous transformation inside the lightning bolt, while Thor stood nearby watching, his heart pounding because the energy in the sphere was simply too immense.

Others may not understand what the Cosmic Cube is, but Thor knows it very well. It can be used for spatial transfer and to repair the Rainbow Bridge.

However, Zhao Chen used his physical body to absorb the power of the Cosmic Cube, and the power of the Cosmic Cube even formed a sphere, enveloping Zhao Chen within "one, two, three".

The energy fluctuations inside were extremely volatile, and Thor, watching from the outside, felt very uncertain. If one wasn't careful, neither Zhao Chen nor Asgard could withstand it.

Inside, Zhao Chen couldn't understand Thor's worries because he couldn't feel any changes in his body; he felt like he was soaking in a hot spring.

He felt completely relaxed and extremely comfortable. Most importantly, his soul had changed; it was growing stronger step by step, and there was even some aura of the origin of the universe.

From the outside, Thor could only see the energy sphere. The energy fluctuations inside were becoming increasingly violent and dense, which made Thor even more worried.

Thor couldn't stand there and watch any longer, so he decided to go find Odin. Only Odin could solve this problem, and it was urgent. So Thor took his hammer and flew straight to the main hall.

Inside the great hall, Odin, holding his eternal spear, sat on his throne, clad in golden armor, radiating the majesty of the Allfather.

Saul remembered that when he was a child, his father always sat on this throne, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Thor felt incredibly lonely seeing Odin sitting on the throne, but only Odin understood that he was using the power of Asgard to seal Hela away in the kingdom of Asgard.

Odin was overjoyed at Hela's birth, as she was his first child. He gave her nearly half of his primordial power, which is why Hela is so powerful.

Over the past few centuries, Odin has become much weaker, and he also feels powerless to do many things, so he often sits alone on this throne.

Thor flew at an incredible speed, making a whooshing sound as he flew through the air. This sound caused the Allfather, the king of the gods, to open his eyes on his throne.

Odin now only has one eye left, but it's clear that he's angry. He taps the ground with the spear of eternity in his hand.

"Thor, what will the guards think of you flying here? You are the future king of Asgard, what have you done to make you so reckless?"

Thor steadied himself and then spoke.

“Father, Zhao Chen is currently cultivating in your treasure vault using the Cosmic Cube, but the scene is a little strange, and I’m worried that the energy might get out of control.”

"Father, if you have time now, please go and take a look, just in case anything unexpected happens."

Nothing in Asgard escapes Odin's notice, but he was currently seated on his throne, completely focused on deepening the seal, and therefore did not notice Zhao Chen's unusual behavior...

After Thor said these words, Odin sensed the energy emanating from the Tesseract in the vault.

The range of the violent energy was very small, but a small range is not a good thing. If the range is small, the power of the rampage will be great. Odin immediately got off the throne and asked Thor to go to the vault with him.

Odin didn't know how long he had lived, but he had seen all sorts of strange things in the universe. However, Zhao Chen's current situation still startled Odin.

Zhao Chen said he wanted to use the Cosmic Cube for cultivation. Odin thought Zhao Chen had some method to extract the energy from the Cosmic Cube and replenish his own body.

But he didn't expect that Zhao Chen would absorb the origin of the universe. Odin couldn't help but take a deep breath when he saw this.

There are a total of six Infinity Stones. Odin wondered what would happen to Zhao Chen if he absorbed all six.

Is it to become the universe, or to control the universe? Thinking of 4.3, Odin turned and looked at Thor.

“Your elder brother is more powerful than I imagined, Thor. Remember what I’m about to tell you: the fate of Asgard rests entirely on his shoulders.”

"Go tell your friends now that Zhao Chen will probably be staying in Asgard for a long time. I'll keep an eye on you here, so don't worry."

After Odin finished speaking, Thor nodded, then left the vault to find the rest of the Avengers.

Zhao Chen stayed here for a week.

Chapter 756 Zhao Chen Wakes Up

For the entire week that Zhao Chen was inside the energy sphere, Odin stood guard beside him, watching him intently without moving.

Thor and the rest of the Avengers would stop by for a while whenever they passed by. At first, everyone was very shocked by this, but they got used to it later.

Only Natasha was particularly worried. She had a feeling that Zhao Chen didn't belong here, so she was very worried that he might disappear.

Aside from eating and sleeping, Natasha and Odin stayed together in the vault, watching Zhao Chen.

Today, the rest of the Avengers toured Asgard with Thor, while Natasha watched from a few meters away from Zhao Chen.

Odin stood to the side, squinting, and no one knew what he was thinking or doing. The energy inside the Energy Sphere 27 was constantly surging and making noises from time to time.

Suddenly the noise stopped, and the vault became incredibly quiet, which made Natasha a little more worried. She spoke to Odin.

“King Odin, some changes have occurred.”

“I know, child, there’s no need to worry so much. Zhao Chen’s vital signs are very good, even stronger than before, so don’t worry, he’s fine.”

Odin slowly opened his eyes and spoke to Natasha. Odin's tone was very calm, but his eyes betrayed him.

His eyes were fixed on the energy ball in front of him. Audi was very curious about what Zhao Chen would become after absorbing the primordial energy of the Cosmic Cube.

Odin actually wanted to know how powerful Zhao Chen would become. The two of them stared at the energy ball, and suddenly the energy inside the energy ball expanded outward.

The energy ball expanded outwards by about two or three meters. Natasha was very worried about Zhao Chen, so she stood there without making any move as the energy ball approached her.

Odin, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly. He grabbed Natasha and pulled her back about six meters before stopping.

As Natasha was pulled along, her worries intensified once more. She shouted something at the energy ball and then prepared to go forward to check on Zhao Chen's condition.

"Zhao Chen."

"Don't go over there. Zhao Chen is fine, nothing's wrong."

Odin held Natasha back, preventing her from taking another step forward. This energy was the energy of the Infinity Stones raging, and in Odin's current state, even if he went, he wouldn't be able to return safely.

Not to mention Natasha, an ordinary person. Fortunately, Odin reacted in time. After the energy ball expanded, it slowly shrank until it was about the same size as Zhao Chen, and then suddenly expanded again.

This expansion was much larger than before. It kept shrinking and expanding, eventually expanding by twenty or thirty meters.

If Odin's treasure vault hadn't been so large, it would probably have been punctured by the energy ball. At this moment, Odin and Natasha were already standing at the entrance of the vault.

It's possible that the energy sphere has reached its maximum expansion limit and is no longer expanding outwards, but this time it didn't happen like before.

After expanding, it immediately shrank back within a minute. Instead, it expanded for about four or five minutes before slowly shrinking back toward Zhao Chen, the energy ball becoming smaller and fainter.

The two people standing at the door could already see Zhao Chen's figure, though it was very blurry. Zhao Chen was still floating there in the same posture.

The energy ball slowly disappeared, turning into a wisp of energy that went into Zhao Chen's body. After absorbing the last bit of energy, Zhao Chen opened his eyes.

The moment Zhao Chen opened his eyes, Odin saw the entire universe and stars within them, along with blue light that shot out ten meters away.

Besides the blue light, there was also the pressure of the universe slowly spreading outwards. Natasha felt nothing because her abilities prevented her from sensing the pressure.

But Odin, standing beside him, felt differently. Odin thought Zhao Chen was like the entire Milky Way, as if he were a true god.

Odin, the father of all gods, almost knelt down and worshipped Zhao Chen. Even when he was a child, Odin had never felt this way when looking at his father.

If Natasha were to turn and look at Odin beside her at this moment, she would see that Odin's forehead was covered in sweat and his legs were trembling uncontrollably.

Although it was only a few seconds, it felt like hundreds of years to Odin. When Odin was about to collapse and knelt down, Zhao Chen's eyes were fully open.

The oppressive aura emanating from Zhao Chen returned to his body, and Zhao Chen truly woke up.

When Zhao Chen was inside the energy sphere, he had no concept of time. Now, his consciousness has finally returned to his body.

Before she could even register the changes in her body, she screamed and fell from the sky.

Chapter 757 Zhao Chen is teleported

Zhao Chen was completely bewildered. He didn't know what had happened. He only saw Odin fully armed and Natasha standing at the entrance of the vault looking at him with worried expressions.

Natasha kept staring at Zhao Chen. After seeing that Zhao Chen had returned to normal, she cheered and ran to Zhao Chen's side as fast as she could.

Natasha felt that these past few days had been the most worrying and frightening days of her life. When Natasha ran towards Zhao Chen, Odin did not stop her.

Odin was also curious to know what changes Zhao Chen would undergo after absorbing the energy of the Cosmic Cube, but Natasha had been waiting by his side for many days, worrying about Zhao Chen every day.

At this point, he was too embarrassed to compete with a young girl like Natasha for someone. The oppressive aura emanating from Zhao Chen had disappeared, and Odin had returned to his appearance as the Allfather.

Odin smiled as he watched Natasha run towards Zhao Chen. As Natasha approached, Zhao Chen's gaze was not on her, but on his own body.

At the same time, a look of surprise appeared on his face, because Zhao Chen felt that his body was experiencing a very uncomfortable feeling.

The feeling was that there was an extremely powerful force pressing down on him, a force that had reached its limit, making it impossible for him to control his body.

However, Zhao Chen felt that there was nothing wrong with his body. Compared to before, he had become even stronger. Zhao Chen guessed that it was a mental issue.
