Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings

"It's always the same. You only keep the good things for your own people, and you always hide things from us outsiders. You keep saying that my will cannot bear the silent darkness."

Seeing his extremely stubborn appearance, Gu Yi shook her head helplessly:

"What is your current situation? If you remain stubbornly deluded, no one can save you!"

"Shut up!" Casillas roared, then slammed his hand heavily on the ground.

"What's wrong with all I wanted to do was bring my wife and daughters back to life?"

"If you don't give me what I want, don't blame me for joining you in the darkness!"

With his slap, the ground rippled like ocean waves.

Space is distorted, and gravity is reversed.

The whole world seemed to have been turned upside down, tilted at a 90-degree angle.

Kaecilius thought his actions would catch Gwen off guard, and he could take the opportunity to pounce on her and easily kill the girl on whom the Ancient One had placed such high hopes.

Unexpectedly, even though the world had been reversed 90 degrees and the walls had become the "ground," the girl remained standing in the same spot as if nothing had happened.

She just stared straight at him, her expression seemingly mocking him for having such a self-humiliating thought.

"Damn it, what kind of magic is this?"

Enraged, Casillas charged at Gwen without a second thought.

But he found that even though he had run a long way, he was still far from being able to reach Gwen.

Finally realizing something was wrong, he looked down and discovered that the wall beneath his feet had been transformed by a strange magical structure, forming a staircase resembling a hamster wheel.

No matter how he moves forward, he remains stuck in the same place.

"Just a friendly reminder, this is the real magic. As for why I'm standing here perfectly fine..."

Gwen smiled slightly at him, and instantly her black and white symbiotic battle suit covered her body:

"Spider totem, kid!"

Now, Casillas was completely helpless.

Because he finally realized what kind of opponent he was facing.

The other party is not a proper magician at all.

Rather than calling her a mage, it would be more accurate to call her a magical warrior!

Faced with such a monster, Kaecilius was already considering retreating, but the will of Dormammu in his mind simply wouldn't allow him to back down.

Casillas was manipulated to rush forward recklessly, using all his strength to try and entangle Gwen.

But Gwen remained incredibly calm, and with a flick of her wrists, the Shield of Seraphim appeared in her hands.

He steadily parried Casillas's spatial blade, then used his far superior close-combat experience to completely suppress him.

Peter watched Gwen's battle silently from the side, nodding repeatedly.

Having been personally mentored by the Ancient One for three years, Gwen has truly undergone a complete transformation.

She not only mastered the magic in the Book of Vishanti and the Book of Cagliostro, but also elevated the light magic she possessed through the artifact bracers to an almost unbelievable level.

Kaecilius, a minor villain in the original story who would have given Strange a lot of trouble even without being enhanced by dark energy, was completely suppressed by Gwen.

Moreover, judging from Gwen's demeanor, she was clearly not taking it seriously; she deliberately held back throughout the entire process to show off her skills to Peter.

After a dazzling magical brawl, Casillas finally lay on the ground.

Gwen glanced at Peter, then, under his clearly encouraging gaze, spoke:

“Kaecilius, I can give you a chance to open a passage to the Dark Dimension, and I will let you see Dormammu’s true face.”

Casillas, who was originally prepared to close his eyes and wait for death, couldn't help but open his eyes upon hearing this.

He stared at Gwen, seemingly wondering if the girl had taken the wrong medicine.

What did he hear? This woman actually intends to confront Dormammu directly?

Kaecilius instinctively wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but after glancing at the Ancient One beside him, he silently shut his mouth.

In any case, this is a golden opportunity.

Since they've chosen to die, why should I create unnecessary trouble?

When they are killed by my great Lord, and when the Dark Dimension descends upon the world, I will be able to reunite with my wife and daughters!

Thinking of this, Casillas nodded subconsciously.

Then the dark ritual began.

With the lifting of the seal on the Hong Kong Island Sanctuary and the initiation of the Dark Ritual, a massive number of cracks quickly appeared in the sky.

Countless distorted, thoughtless beings emerged from it.

But before they could begin their rampage, a storm of cherry blossoms swept by, instantly slicing the monsters into countless pieces.

Peter casually put away his Senbonzakura, turned to Gwen, the Ancient One, and Hela, and said:

"Let's go, it's time we went to meet Dormammu!"

Chapter 453 The Ineffective Shield of Shunliuhua, the Power of Dormammu

After saying this, Peter took the lead and stepped into the Dark Dimension.

Hela followed closely behind.

After the two of them entered the Dark Dimension, Gwen and Gu Yi exchanged a glance and immediately used their slingshots to draw two circles.

He nodded to Fatty Wang from the New York Sanctuary and the London Sanctuary, as well as Baron Mordo.

The two understood each other perfectly and immediately resealed the seals in the other two locations.

The seals on the two Sanctuaries closed again, and the Dark Dimension portal in the sky was also forced to close as a result.

Just as the passage was about to close, the Ancient One and Gwen took Kaecilius and flew into the space passage.

This was the final insurance policy designed by the Ancient One.

If they are unable to defeat Dormammu in the Dark Dimension, the sealed passage will be the last safety valve.

This would prevent Dormammu from immediately invading Earth and causing irreparable damage.

With a dizzying sensation, when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in the dark dimension.

As far as the eye could see, there was only a dark and strange space. There was no moon or sun in the sky, only stars emitting a dark purple light.

Beneath this endless starry sky, a gigantic face looked down upon Peter and the others.

It was Dormammu!

"You actually dared to come to my world to die. I must say, you really have a lot of courage!"

At this point, Dormammu's large face looked down at Kaecilius, and he let out a cold snort:

"Useless! You used my power, yet you couldn't even deal with two lowly Sorcerers Supreme! What use are you to a follower like that!"

Dormammu is inherently impatient; he has waited for Kaecilius for so long without him fully opening the portal between the Dark Dimension and Earth.

He was very dissatisfied with the fact that Gwen and the Ancient One had finally opened the passage, only to have it sealed off by them again. This result of having hope only to have it quickly dashed left him very dissatisfied.

So he decided to teach Casillas an unforgettable lesson.

He then opened his mouth wide, and a terrifying suction force immediately acted on Kaecilius, about to send him into Dormammu's abyssal maw.

"No, my lord, you can't do this to me! I trusted you so much. You promised to let me see my wife and daughters. I gave you everything. How could you do this to me!"

Casillas screamed madly as he struggled desperately, trying to rewrite his fate.

But his struggles were so futile under the pull of this force; in this dark dimension, all dark energy was beyond Kaecilius's control.

Any creature possessing dark energy is essentially his slave, whose life and death are entirely in his hands, and no amount of help from others can change that.

Just as Casillas finally realized how wrong he had been and felt endless regret,

He suddenly felt that the terrifying suction force had been significantly weakened. He belatedly opened his eyes and was shocked to see a figure standing in front of him.

Two magical shields, gleaming with holy light, were now shining on the man's hands.

It's Gwen!

At this moment, she was holding up the Shield of Seraphin in front of Kaecilius, helping him to resist Dormammu's devouring.

Upon seeing this, Casillas was stunned, and then an expression of extreme shame appeared on his face.

He was constantly scheming to make sure these people died without a burial place, but when he was in despair, it was his enemy who saved him, a feeling that made him feel utterly ashamed.

Noticing Gwen's action, Peter and the Ancient One couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Hela, standing nearby, unconsciously frowned and couldn't help but lean close to Peter's ear to ask:

"Why go to all this trouble, my little sweetheart? That guy deserved to die anyway; it's his just deserts to die at the hands of the Lord."

"That's just her personality. You'll understand once you spend more time with her."

Peter offered a casual explanation, without showing any sign of disgust or helplessness on his face.

This is Gwen's personality, and also her most attractive quality.

On the other side, Dormammu also showed a surprised expression because of Gwen's meddling, but then that surprise turned into disdain.

"What an ignorant reptile, daring to use the detestable Vishanti magic in my domain."

Dormammu let out a cold snort, and the next second, countless black mists surged into the surrounding air. The black mists acted on the Shield of Seraphin, even causing the shield, which was strong enough to withstand the impact of the Infinity Stones, to produce a piercing hissing sound.

Feeling the almost endless dark energy surging around her, Gwen broke out in a cold sweat, but she gritted her teeth and did not retreat an inch, nor did she give up on Casillas.

"Now you know what a shameless scoundrel the guy you worship is!"

As Gwen spoke, the hair clip that was attached to the end of her hair flew into the air on its own, forming a long, narrow oval shield that enveloped Casillas.

This is precisely the effect of the Six Flowers of Shield Shun—Double Heaven Return Shield.

Under the effect of the Twin Heavens Shield, the dark energy on Casillas's body was quickly dispelled, and even the rune mark on his forehead gradually faded.

As the dark energy within him dissipated, Dormammu's terrifying pull on Kaecilius naturally disappeared as well.

"Um?!"
