Marvel's female superheroine travels through multiple worlds

"This is impossible. How can someone with a magic-suppressing physique communicate with the dark dimension?"

Modu looked on in astonishment and said in disbelief.

He knew something about the magic-suppressing physique, a rare existence that only appears once every hundred or even a thousand years. It cannot use any secret techniques or magic, but it is also completely unaffected by magic.

However, this kind of physique is completely incompatible with dimensional magical energy, like parallel lines that will never intersect.

Upon hearing about the magic-suppressing physique, Mordo visibly breathed a sigh of relief, but was also filled with questions. However, he suddenly realized something.

“Unless…” Mordo opened his mouth slightly, and after a long while, he uttered two words.

“Unless it’s Sithon’s forbidden lifespan swap,” Ancient One added, taking a leisurely sip of tea.

The Dark Book is an evil secret art created billions of years ago by the ancient god Chthon, who fell into darkness and became a great demon, in order to escape being devoured by the God Eaters.

He recorded these spells on parchment and named them the Scrolls of Sithon.

These parchments were later revised and compiled into a book, which became known as the Dark Book of Darkness.

This is no child's play like Avada Kedavra eating a melon; it's a truly terrifying force capable of overturning the universe.

Before his exile, Sithon left behind the Dark Book on Earth, establishing energy release channels between Earth and other dimensions.

The Dark Book contains the origins of evil magic such as the Necronomicon, and it is extremely easy to understand, posing no reading barrier regardless of language.

It is easy to learn, and the spells contain enormous destructive power, which is why many arcane mages are prone to falling into darkness.

However, although the Dark Book contains many powerful dark magic spells, its corrupting influence is extremely strong.

To gain great power, one must pay a price equal to or even beyond what one can bear.

Excessive use of dark magic can lead to the sacrifice of a person's soul to Sithon.

In a sense, the Dark Book is the opposite of the Book of Vishanti.

Because of the enormous cost and extremely negative consequences, Kamar-Taj strictly forbids communication with the Dark Dimension and the use of Black Magic.

However, the library in Kamar-Taj does contain relevant dark magic texts for determined sorcerers to study and decipher.

Generally, apprentices can only consult books within the rules, because most people cannot resist the temptation.

"Your Excellency, using the forbidden secrets of the Book of Darkness will cost her her life! We must stop her!" Mordo strongly advised.

Xisorn's forbidden secret arts are numerous, with magic providers absorbing the souls and life force of their contractors in exchange, but there are exceptions.

For example, special dark magic that trades lifespan for immense power.

This dark art has a very low barrier to entry; users don't even need to understand how magic circuits work. Without any magical talent, they forcibly exchange their lifespan for magic power.

No contract is required; it's simple and straightforward, but almost no one would be foolish enough to dabble in such a secret technique.

After all, vitality can be replenished, and damage to the soul can be repaired, but there is no turning back once lifespan is reduced.

"No, she has to walk her own path, and we are just bystanders."

Gu Yi gazed meaningfully into the distance, shook his head, and declined with a smile.

Inside the dormitory of the apprentice esoteric mage in the holy land, Lu Yunmeng sat cross-legged on the bed with her eyes closed.

A strange, reddish-black energy emanated from her body, enveloping her and forming an energy cocoon-like structure.

The dense black magic penetrated deep into the skin, then drew upon some unseen and intangible energy, which then seeped out from within the body.

The seeping magic turned red and black, continuously thickening the outer energy cocoon, and finally splitting out more black magic, in an endless cycle.

Lu Yunmeng originally had a typical Caucasian complexion. Although her features were somewhat mixed-race, she looked no different from a Caucasian woman overall, except that she was much prettier.

Her striking golden-brown wavy hair and beautiful face made her stand out in the crowd.

But ever since she ingested the black magic, her life has been constantly withering away, her face has turned pale and even bluish, and her sexy lips have lost their color.

The person became extremely weak, and the bed was covered with long, necrotic hair, as if they had suffered from nuclear radiation causing cell decay.

You should know that, given Homelander's physical condition, even cutting or burning her hair would be difficult to damage.

It's unimaginable that it would fall off.

As we all know, human cells can divide about 50 times in their lifetime, a process that is lengthy and accompanied by aging.

When cellular energy is exhausted, human life will end completely, resulting in total physical death.

Sithon's secret arts come at the cost of lifespan; those who accept this temporary contract have their cellular activity taken away.

Originally it could split 50 times, but now it may only be able to split 25 times. This cost is irreversible.

A large number of cells have had their ability to divide cut off at the genetic level.

People who could have lived to 100 years old can only live to 50 after using this black magic.

Birth, aging, sickness, and death still exist, only the upper limit of lifespan has been reduced; this is the price of the black magic of lifespan.

Despite spending several days in the Kamar-Taj Library, Lu Yunmeng, who had developed a super brain with exceptional memory and comprehension, still couldn't find a way to learn the secret techniques.

Her magic-suppressing constitution completely isolated her from all energy related to magic and arcane arts, leaving her only able to look at the contents of dozens of magic and arcane arts books, unable to do anything else.

As the name suggests, it literally means that one can only memorize what one reads.

Just now, Lu Yunmeng suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Combining the magic literature she had read, she thought of the copy of the secret book that the king called forbidden.

This book is actually a copy of the Dark Book of Sithon, and the contents are incomplete. Some pages were even violently torn and destroyed for fear that the wizards would be led astray.

Lu Yunmeng memorized all the contents of the book, including information about forbidden magic that could be obtained by exchanging lifespan without requiring magical power.

Simply put, if the price is high enough, Sithon will find a way to grant his followers the ability to briefly unleash dark magic.

However, its destructive power is average; it's more like creating a state that temporarily boosts all attributes, or it can be understood as the berserker's combat power soaring when he goes berserk.

Going mad will eventually deplete the berserker's life force; the more he uses it, the faster he will die. This is the principle behind this dark and forbidden secret technique.

After the black magic was cast, the person returned to normal, but lost their powerful strength and lifespan – a terrifying thought.

When Sithon created this secret technique and wrote it down on parchment, he probably didn't expect anyone to learn it.

Perhaps he hopes to encounter a few crazy people who are willing to risk their lives, trading their lifespan for magic for certain things.

Lifespan is of paramount importance to everyone; only by living longer can one see more of the world's wonders.

But this kind of thing that is absolutely irreplaceable has no meaning for Lu Yunmeng.

Upon being reborn into this world, the system panel grants a lifespan of up to 200 years, which increases as physical strength grows.

She'll only live longer, so this thing is worthless to her.

But wasting one's lifespan by casting forbidden black magic to temporarily enhance one's condition is meaningless; the only thing that truly matters is preserving one's power!

Lu Yunmeng awkwardly made a gesture, constantly using black and red energy to condense various shapes, such as wine glasses, pistols, gold bricks, swords, and even human figures, which changed at her fingertips.

She needs to observe how magic works to fully understand the truth of forbidden dark magic.

If Magus Mordo were here, he would be surprised to find that this person, who had only been learning the secret arts for less than half a month, was far more skilled in using magic than him, and even more proficient than the guardian mages of the three great temples!

As time goes by, the enhancement status continues to rise, and the lifespan on the system panel is constantly decreasing. I imagine Sithon must be very excited to have met such a devoted fan.

Just then, Lu Yunmeng's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened!

With a gentle turn of her slender, fair fingers, all the energy from the black cocoon disappeared, and a black magic artifact that looked remarkably like a star appeared in her palm!

Chapter 27 Microscopic Life in the Stellar World

This was a red and black sun, about the size of a golf ball, radiating brilliant light, instantly illuminating the dim room as if it were daytime.

The blazing flames surged and churned on the surface of the sphere, while a faint halo wrapped around its outer edge resembled Saturn's ringed meteorite belt, mysterious and beautiful.

Lu Yunmeng gently moved her fingertips, and the little sun began to spin.

A localized area of ​​the sphere began to release energy on a large scale, causing it to heat up and emit weak electromagnetic pulses. With the enhancement of particle radiation, this small star actually staged a miniature version of a solar flare.

The air distorted, the temperature in the room rose higher and higher, sparks flew from the dry animal hair blanket, and black smoke began to rise from the wooden tables and chairs.

Lu Yunmeng's eyes narrowed, and she used her body's bio-energy to forcibly envelop the 'little fireball' at her fingertips to prevent energy leakage and actually set the house on fire.

You should know that she used the dark magic of Sithon to materialize a real 'star' according to real scientific principles!

Despite its tiny size, it operates in a regular manner, and the radiation, energy, and temperature it emits are no different from those of a normal sun.

Lu Yunmeng already possesses superpowers similar to Homelander's, and at this stage, she has even surpassed the original Homelander's strength.

She can slightly mobilize some of the bioenergy in her body to change her form, but it is difficult and the reaction is weak, only slightly stronger than the energy membrane that covers her whole body during spaceflight.

In terms of degree, it's roughly possible to mold bioenergy like clay, shaping it into different forms, but it can't be made too complex.

Biological energy alone could never confine such complex and high-energy celestial bodies as stars.

However, dark magic can, especially the forbidden energy generated by the Dark Book of Sithon, Lu Yunmeng can make the energy undergo extremely complex changes through lifespan replacement.

However, the dark energy will eventually disappear, and with the severing of the connection to the dark dimension channel, this small star will also completely collapse and cease to exist.

What Lu Yunmeng needs to do now is to thoroughly understand the essence of the small star formed by the dark magic while it is still alive.

She kept the star spinning at her fingertips and began to channel her bio-energy into the small fireball.

The structure of stars is extremely complex, and understanding every thread and every operating principle requires a lot of time and effort. Fortunately, Lu Yunmeng has plenty of energy.

Take the sun as an example. This star, which has been shining on Earth for billions of years and catalyzing the natural processes of life, is mainly composed of hydrogen and helium.

Hydrogen accounts for approximately 71%, helium for approximately 27%, and other elements for 2%.

The sun can be divided into the nuclear reactor zone, radiative zone, troposphere, and atmosphere from its center outwards. Internally, it consists of three layers from the inside out: the energy-producing core, the radiative zone, and the convective zone.

In addition, the solar atmosphere can be divided into the photosphere, chromosphere and corona from the inside out.

The photosphere is the innermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere, where sunspots and sunspots often appear.

The chromosphere is the middle layer of the Sun's atmosphere, visible only during a total solar eclipse or with a special telescope. This layer is where solar flares and prominences appear.

The corona is the outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere. It is dim and can only be seen during a total solar eclipse or when using a coronagraph.

The movement inside the sun is extremely intense, and hydrogen-helium nuclear fusion is the main process.

Hydrogen undergoes nuclear fusion to form helium, and through this reaction process, it emits light and heat into the solar system.

Nuclear fusion refers to the process by which lighter atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier atomic nucleus, which is the same principle as the hydrogen bomb.

Nuclear fusion requires extremely demanding conditions, including ultra-high temperature and ultra-high pressure environments.

Only when these conditions are met can a celestial body be considered a star.
