Marvel: Starting with mastering the Dark Book

If it's at this level, even without relying on dark magic, the opponent is qualified to be a Sorcerer Supreme, and might even be on par with himself.

"What a terrible talent!"

Jiang Yu pulled the entire city of New York into a mirror space, and then began to make various hand gestures.

The mirror space was folded and compressed wildly.

The vast city of New York was shrunk to almost the size of a single city block in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, all the dimensional beings from various parts of New York were brought before Jiang Yu.

The dimensional beings who discovered Jiang Yu all agreed to focus their attention on him.

Let's solve it once and for all!

"I'm not going to waste my time with you guys."

The power of time began to flow.

The flow of time on Jiang Yu's body was accelerated, and at the same time, the large magic runes in Jiang Yu's hands spread out, gradually forming red magic runes.

Then it shrank in an instant, and a massive spell was completed in just a few seconds.

The Ancient One, who was watching all of this, showed a look of astonishment on her face.

'Time?'

'Is he...manipulating time?'

Gu Yi narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the magical runes on Jiang Yu's hand.

Elemental environmental magic, such a large-scale spell, would be difficult for an ordinary mage to cast.

Even after becoming proficient, it would probably take tens of seconds to prepare.

Jiang Yu completed the task in a few seconds by accelerating the flow of time.

Moreover, this was done by Jiang Yu while simultaneously folding the mirror space.

Red lightning surged from the magical runes. Jiang Yu stabilized the magic with both hands, watching the dozens of dimensional creatures rushing towards him.

He unleashed his magic directly, and red lightning crackled like chains.

After several first-dimensional creatures, it instantly turned the opponent into red ashes and vanished.

Immediately afterwards, the lightning chains bounced again.

After dozens of consecutive jumps.

It formed a twisting red streak in the air.

In less than a second, the light dissipated, and the red arc of electricity vanished from Jiang Yu's hand.

All done!

Jiang Yu clapped his hands. For the other mages, even high-level mages, the attack just now was enough to exhaust all their power.

However, Jiang Yu was almost completely unaffected because of his immaculate body.

In other words, within one's mana pool, one can unleash such a powerful ability as many times as desired.

Seeing Jiang Yu deal with so many dimensional beings so easily, Gu Yi felt gratified.

Compared to other mages, Jiang Yu is already far ahead.

Meanwhile, Tony, standing on the street, stared at the car that had almost hit him, ignoring the other driver's curses.

He walked to the side of the road and took out his phone.

"Hey! Nico! I think you were right before, there really are too many things to stop in this world. I'm not sure if I was dreaming just now!"

"But it felt so real, and I think I was attacked..."

"Can you imagine me falling from Stark Tower, hundreds of meters in the air, and suddenly landing safely, while the monster that was right in front of me is now a hundred meters away from me the next second?"

Hearing Tony's incoherent ramblings, most people would probably think he had a mental breakdown.

"Hey! Are you even listening to me?"

Nico, who was at S.H.I.E.L.D., was looking at the strange and destructive attacks that had just occurred around the world.

Nico nodded emphatically. "Yes, I'm listening, and I really need you to describe the events in detail..."

Chapter 13 The Book of Vishanti

At the Sanctuary of New York, Jiang Yu passed through a dimensional portal.

He gently patted his trouser leg.

I don't know where it got some dust on it.

Gu Yi stood on the stairs of the Sanctuary in New York and looked at Jiang Yu, who appeared directly.

"You don't seem to like using doors much these days!"

Jiang Yu didn't even look up, casually saying, "A portal is a door, right? How about next time I add a door to the portal and demonstrate how to push it open if you want to see it, teacher!"

"Magic should not be abused!"

"It wasn't abused. Didn't it help me shorten my journey and save unnecessary time? Isn't that great?"

This time, Jiang Yu looked up at Gu Yi.

"Magic has greatly helped me save unnecessary time, so it has been put to good use. Does that count as abuse, teacher?"

The Ancient One found Jiang Yu's astonished understanding of magic somewhat novel.

“Maybe you’re right!” Gu Yi turned her head. “Come with me!”

Jiang Yu, who was below, took three steps at a time and came up behind Gu Yi.

"Modu and the others are still cleaning up the dimensional invasion creatures; your speed is beyond my imagination!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu smiled and said, "After all, I am someone who has studied the Dark Book. If I can't even do this much, it would be too embarrassing."

Although he doesn't use dark magic, the knowledge and theories of magic are still in Jiang Yu's mind.

This cannot be changed.

"I am very pleased to have a disciple like you. I hope you will not disappoint me!" Gu Yi suddenly said very seriously.

The tone sounded overly serious.

Jiang Yu looked at her with some surprise. Did this mean she completely trusted him?

“However!” Gu Yi suddenly looked at Jiang Yu and smiled. “You clearly haven’t grasped the true meaning.”

Without waiting for Jiang Yu to think, she pushed open a large door, revealing another special dimension on the other side.

Jiang Yu didn't know what this dimension was. Perhaps it was a dimension created by the Ancient One, a temporary one, or perhaps it was some special dimension—who knew!

Gu Yi asked curiously, "What are you doing here, teacher?"

"You want to learn the contents of the Book of Vishanti, right? Now I will teach you."

Is it starting so soon?

Jiang Yu wasn't quite ready yet, but it didn't matter.

A colossal boulder floated in the dimension, and the Ancient One simply twisted her body lightly in the air.

It's like turning on some kind of switch.

Then several boulders flew toward the two of them, forming a staircase beneath their feet, one step after another.

Leading to a huge floating platform.

Gu Yi led Jiang Yu upwards.

"Tell me! What is your understanding of the Book of Vishanti?"

Faced with this unexpected problem, Jiang Yu thought for a moment, "The only thing that can oppose the Dark Book!"

Do you know why we're able to fight against them?

Jiang Yu shook his head; this was outside his area of ​​expertise.

However, Gu Yi laughed when he saw that Jiang Yu didn't even know this. "It seems that you really haven't grasped the true essence of the Dark Book, otherwise you wouldn't be completely ignorant of the Book of Vishanti!"

Jiang Yu frowned. "I have mastered all the magic in the Dark Book!"

"I know, Mengxing, you can do it all, and you can even take the dead under your control. You have indeed learned the dark magic in the Dark Book, but you have not grasped the true essence of the Dark Book!"

"Is there anything in here that I don't know?" Jiang Yu stroked the Dark God Book at his waist.

The Ancient One did not answer the question; the two had already arrived at the floating platform.

With a wave of her hand, Gu Yi caused the entire platform to radiate white light, and the energy spread like an invisible network, covering the entire floating platform.

"Now I can teach you how to resist the corruption and erosion of the Dark Book!"

Jiang Yu opened his mouth, wanting to say that he hadn't been corrupted at all...

One magical rune after another appeared on the platform. Jiang Yu looked over and his eyes flashed with white light.

The Eye of Truth is activated.

[You have studied the Soul Runes; your proficiency in Spirit and Soul magic has increased by 3000.]

You have mastered the defensive runes; your proficiency in defensive support magic has increased by 4000.

[You... +2000]

With his proficiency increasing by thousands, Jiang Yu had temporarily forgotten to ask the Ancient One what the true meaning of the so-called Dark Book was.

At this moment, because of the Eye of Truth, he is so immersed in the world of magical knowledge that he cannot extricate himself!

Watching Jiang Yu stare at the runes, he absorbed all sorts of magical knowledge like a sponge falling into the sea.

This made Gu Yi even more certain that Jiang Yu was not attracted by the power of the Dark Book, but only by its magic.

However, it is puzzling why Jiang Yu was not corrupted by the darkness.

[Because you have accumulated knowledge of defensive and supportive magic, your level in defensive and supportive magic has now increased.]

[Defense Support: LV4↑]

Defensive and support magic has been upgraded by one level.

Just because of a few magical runes, Jiang Yu slowly came back to his senses and felt that his control over defensive and supportive magic had greatly increased.

My mood immediately improved.

Not only defensive and support magic, but also mental and spiritual magic, I feel that it won't be long before it can be upgraded to level five again.

He let out a long sigh.

"It seems you've finished your comprehension!" Ancient One's voice rang out.

Jiang Yu turned to look at Gu Yi. "Teacher, are you still here? How long has it been?"

"Not long, only two days!"

Two days seemed like just a moment to Jiang Yu.

"Your understanding of magic far exceeds my expectations. You should be able to easily master this magic that defends against the corruption of darkness now!"

Jiang Yu nodded, and magical runes instantly appeared as he raised his hand. However, these runes were useless to Jiang Yu, as he had not been corrupted by darkness.

It is also impossible for it to be corrupted by darkness.

Gu Yi was stunned for a moment when he saw Jiang Yu successfully cast the spell of the Book of Vishanti.

"It seems it has chosen you too!"

"Huh?" Jiang Yu frowned. "Who chose me?"

"The Book of Vishanti!"

Jiang Yu was taken aback. "I've never read the Book of Vishanti!"

"But this is a soul defense spell generated for you by the Book of Vishanti, and you've successfully learned it, haven't you?"

"Wait!" Jiang Yu looked at Gu Yi, his expression instantly changing. "What do you mean by 'The Book of Vishanti,' a soul defense magic specifically created for me...?"

At this moment, the Ancient One smiled.
