Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings.

Clang!

Before Thor's hammer could strike Mephisto's head, a figure silently stepped in front of Mephisto, catching the hammer firmly with a massive red trident.

"Father!"

Looking at his father's soul, now blank and lifeless, Thor suddenly felt all his strength drain away.

But Odin on the other side showed no mercy, raising his hand to stab Thor in the heart with his halberd.

If Frigga hadn't forcibly pulled Thor back with magic, he probably would have died on the spot.

"See that, Peter Parker?" Mephisto completely ignored Thor's anger; his entire focus was on Peter.

"That's my confidence. That idiot Thanos doesn't understand the true purpose of the Soul Stone and the Mind Stone at all."

With just these two gems, you can easily manipulate everyone except yourself!

After you die, when I obtain your body, which is even enough to make the Phoenix Force swoon, I will use you as the vanguard to build an invincible undead legion!

At that time, not only this tiny Earth, but the entire multiverse will be prostrate at my feet!

All the rulers of the underworld in this multiverse, whether it be Hela, Hades, or even death itself, will be replaced by me!

I, Mephisto, will become the one and only, the supreme... Demon King!

His ambition was now crystal clear.

Compared to Thanos's hypocritical rhetoric of "for the balance of the universe," Mephisto's desires were much purer and more evil.

He rules over all, enslaves all, and will drag everything in sight into his endless sulfurous hell.

Despite this declaration that could be described as world-ending, Peter's expression remained completely unchanged.

"Finished? My assessment is... have you forgotten how you watched my fight with Kur?"

"You're serious about pulling off those fancy maneuvers in front of me?"

As he spoke, Peter's mind stirred, and a large, golden banner, gleaming with an ancient aura, suddenly appeared behind him.

It was through that battle with Kur that the Emperor's Banner was directly upgraded!

As soon as this banner was displayed, the surrounding area within a hundred miles was instantly bathed in sunlight.

The lowly demons who had just burst out of the rift and were still baring their fangs and claws screamed in unison the moment they were hit by the light, and visible black smoke rose from their bodies.

An invisible suction force was acting on them, and it looked like they were about to be forcibly sucked into the space inside the banner and refined.

Even Odin and Thanos, whose souls were enslaved by the hellfire and the Soul Stone, trembled for a moment, their bodies visibly stiffening in place.

Upon seeing the Emperor's Banner, a trace of solemnity visibly flashed across Mephisto's face.

But the next second, that seriousness turned into a confident smile:

"Of course I remember your skills. If I weren't prepared, why would I reveal this trump card to you directly?"

As he spoke, he raised his left hand, and the Reality Stone on the Infinity Gauntlet suddenly burst forth with a blinding red light!

"God said, 'Let there be light...' and Mephisto said, 'Let there be flesh!'"

With his wicked announcement, a powerful force that distorts reality instantly enveloped the entire battlefield!

The demons pouring out of the rifts of hell, along with the souls of Odin and Thanos, rapidly solidified their spirits in the red light.

On the originally crumbling spirit body, tendons, bones, flesh, scales... grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!

In the blink of an eye, this army of undead and demons broke through the boundary between life and death, becoming a real, tangible living entity.

Once a physical body is available, the Human Emperor Banner's attraction to the soul will be greatly reduced.

"That's why I say Thanos doesn't deserve these three Infinity Stones at all; he's only utilized less than one percent of their potential!"

Mephisto smiled smugly, his tone full of disdain for Thanos and anticipation for Peter:

"Now, your strange flag is just for decoration!"

Hearing this, even Peter couldn't help but nod.

"Okay, even I have to admit, when it comes to brains, you are indeed a cut above that purple sweet potato."

"However," he changed the subject, "if you think you can destroy my Emperor's Banner like this, you're sorely mistaken~"

As he spoke, he gently waved the large banner in his hand.

Ugh~

As golden light shone, a faint horn sounded in the void.

Tens of thousands of golden rays flew out from the banner and condensed in mid-air.

It was a well-prepared cavalry legion, and at the very front of them stood eight warriors, each with a different appearance and wielding a giant hammer.

It was none other than Kur's Myriad Spirits Cavalry and the Eight Heavenly Hammer Venerables!

Over the past period of time, through the refinement of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, these souls have completely become Peter's power and have become his most loyal subordinates.

At Peter's command, the Sky Hammer Master and the All-Spirit Cavalry immediately charged towards Mephisto's demon army.

Although Mephisto is the lord of Hell, commanding billions of demons, most of these demons are evolved from the sinners of Earth after their deaths.

Even if they can strengthen themselves to varying degrees through mutual killing and devouring, their combat power is still very limited.

At best, they are only slightly better than the Zeta Swiss soldiers.

Peter's All Souls Cavalry, however, was quite different.

These are all deceased Asgardian warriors who fought alongside Kur in the Nine Realms ten thousand years ago, and are veterans of countless battles.

It can be said that Peter's fighting strength is more than ten times that of those lower-level demons.

Furthermore, the All-Spirit Cavalry released by Peter were still pure spirits, while Mephisto's demon army was forcibly given physical bodies in order to resist the Emperor's Banner.

This resulted in the fact that even the most severe injuries suffered by the All-Spirit Cavalry could be repaired by the Emperor's Banner or Peter's own soul power.

Mephisto's demon army, however, would be absorbed by the Emperor's Banner on the spot after his physical body was destroyed.

Therefore, this battle between the two armies was unfair from the very beginning.

Even though Peter's All-Spirit Cavalry did not have a numerical advantage, they still easily decimated Mephisto's demon army.

Looking at the army of demons who were killed and cried out for their mothers, and whose physical bodies were even destroyed and then absorbed as nourishment by the Emperor's Banner.

Peter couldn't help but laugh:

"Looks like your plans still can't keep up with my changes~"

"I'd like to ask, given the current situation, what kind of backup plan do you have?"

Hearing Peter's sarcasm, Mephisto's already red face turned even redder.

The reason is simple: Peter's playing style caught him completely off guard.

He thought his plan was foolproof and that he had Peter completely under his control, but he never expected that he would become the clown again in the blink of an eye.

Anyone would find this situation unbearable!

With this thought in mind, Mephisto subconsciously tightened his grip on the Black Death Sword.

Clearly, the only way to break this deadlock is to "directly defeat Peter"!
