Marvel: Starting with mastering the Dark Book

Strange frowned, his body slowly descending as he glanced down at the Eye of Agamotto on his chest. "Wandering freely through time is not permitted."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu smiled.

"Don't be ridiculous. How many Sorcerers Supreme would actually follow this rule? Only a newbie like you would say that. I bet you'll only follow this rule for a month at most, after which you'll be interacting with different Stranges..."

Strange was speechless. Indeed, he had almost lost his temper several times, and he was indeed about to use the Eye of Agamotto to travel to other timelines.

But suddenly Strange shook his head. That wasn't the point. The point was, who was the person in front of him?

"Not very lucky! I ran into a newbie, but it's alright."

If he were to actually encounter a veteran like Strange, he might not be able to beat him. Rookies have their advantages too.

"Do you know where the Book of Vishanti is?" Jiang Yu asked, looking up, in a tone similar to asking, "Do you know where the toilet is?"

Jiang Yu's direct question left Strange momentarily bewildered.

A man wielding dark magic asked himself, "Where is the Book of Vishanti?"

Chapter 5 The Newcomer Strange

"Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell a dark mage of unknown origin."

Strange spoke very seriously.

Jiang Yu nodded. "Indeed, if it were me, I wouldn't say it so casually either, but... now it's not up to you!"

Click!

There was a sound like breaking glass.

The mirror dimension opened instantly, and Jiang Yu stood still, looking at the somewhat bewildered Strange.

This ability to instantly transport the two to another dimension reminded Strange of the Ancient One.

Only the Ancient One possessed such terrifying power.

The Ancient One is now dead.

Strange silently swallowed. Having just become the Sorcerer Supreme, he was clearly still somewhat unfamiliar with the role, especially in manipulating the Mirror Dimension.

Jiang Yu pointed to the ground beneath his feet!

He immediately looked down at his feet and saw that a hole had appeared in the ground of the Sanctuary.

He then fell straight down, but fortunately, the magic cloak didn't require Strange to activate it.

His body instantly floated into the air, reminding Strange that he still had his magic cloak.

"Thank you!"

The upturned collar of the magic cloak patted Strange's face.

The next second, a plume of black smoke shot out.

Defensive magic suddenly activated, acting like a shield to block the black smoke's attack.

Jiang Yu's body floated up, and a cloak woven from undead material instantly appeared behind him.

Looking at Jiang Yu's current appearance.

Strange paused, stunned. 'So he really is a sorcerer who has fallen to darkness; he can even...control the undead?'

"Where are you looking, Strange?"

Bang!

The ceiling of the Sanctuary above seemed to transform into countless rotating gears, descending directly from the sky.

Strange was slammed down from mid-air.

As Strange landed, he saw the ground beneath his feet changing and was about to take flight.

But the wall that compressed into him the next second or so forced Strange to quickly activate his magic to defend himself.

They blocked the ever-compacting walls from the left and right.

She looked up at Jiang Yu, who was slowly approaching from the front.

This person's control over the mirror dimension seems to be no less than that of the Ancient One.

"As a newcomer, your reaction time is a bit slow. You're probably not used to fighting with magic yet!"

Don't worry, I won't hurt you!

Jiang Yu smiled as countless dimensional portals of varying sizes instantly appeared around Strange.

The largest is only about the size of a basketball.

Chains shot out and wrapped around Strange's body.

Black light flowed along the chains, giving Strange an eerie chill.

My magic seems to be affected; I can't activate it at all.

Even the defensive magic is about to dissipate...

"Don't move. You probably won't tell me, so I'll come and see for myself."

Jiang Yu raised his hand, and magical patterns appeared on his palm. In an instant, they transformed into a red mist of light and rushed towards Strange.

The combination of soul manipulation and mental magic belongs to the spiritual and soul-based magic system.

Strange gritted his teeth. "You want to look into my memories? No..."

"No, no, no, I don't want to check your memories. I want to control you to use the Eye of Agamotto on your chest. You don't know the Book of Vishanti now, but you might know it in the future!"

Magic invaded Strange's body, and soon Strange's consciousness began to dissipate.

The next second, just as Jiang Yu was about to control Strange to activate the Eye of Agamotto and travel through different timelines to search for the Book of Vishanti...

A dimensional portal opened behind Jiang Yu.

The king, carrying a large bag of things, emerged from the portal and was complaining.

"I've bought everything you need for daily life, and also your favorite coffee..."

Wang looked up at the frantically roaring undead and froze on the spot.

"Grass……"

"Hi, Wang, we meet again, but you'd better not bother me."

However, the king didn't seem to want to hear what was being said and immediately activated his magic, preparing to attack.

Jiang Yu sighed, then with a backhand flick, three undead flew out instantly, crashing directly into the king.

The next second, just as the king was about to unleash a magical attack, his eyes suddenly went blank, and he collapsed to the ground, falling into a deep sleep.

Jiang Yu shrugged. "It seems the king of this universe doesn't even know me!"

never mind!

However, Wang's control over dimensional portals is indeed exceptionally gifted!

This is a mirror space, yet Wang was able to open a portal to it without his knowledge.

This explains why the King's dimensional portal sensed the fluctuations in space and opened directly in the mirror space.

Now that there was no one to interfere, Jiang Yu began to focus on controlling Strange.

Soon the Eye of Agamotto on the opponent's chest activated.

Jiang Yu frowned slightly. "So the incantation is that simple!"

Although the incantation on the Eye of Agamotto isn't too difficult, if one tries to break it without knowing what it is, even with the power of the Time Stone, it would probably take tens of thousands of years.

Once you know the incantation, things will be much easier.

[You have successfully obtained the spell for the Eye of Agamotto. Your proficiency in Reality Manipulation magic has increased by 500.]

Wow~ I didn't expect that such a simple spell could give so much proficiency, that's pretty good.

Jiang Yu smiled.

Even after learning the incantation, Jiang Yu did not intend to use the Eye of Agamotto himself, since only the Sorcerer Supreme could use it without attracting attention.

Otherwise, the Sorcerer Supremes of other distant universes would find out and then tell the Ancient One, which would be disastrous.

But as Jiang Yu manipulated Strange to search the timeline.

Unfortunately, the Book of Vishanti does not exist in the current timeline of this multiverse.

Jiang Yu sighed.

"Pity!"

However, through Strange's perspective, Jiang Yu did not come away empty-handed, successfully identifying a universe that possessed the Book of Vishanti.

This universe appears to be the same multiverse that Scarlet Witch Wanda entered in Doctor Strange 2.

The next second, Jiang Yu stopped controlling Strange and erased that memory from Strange's mind. Of course, Strange might discover it in the future, but at least not now.

Jiang Yu then moved forward, and another dimensional portal opened.

Return this body to its original place.

The dream then ended.

In the real universe, Jiang Yu opened his eyes and exhaled.

"We've locked onto the target, things will be much easier now!"

Jiang Yu prepared to close his eyes and begin the dream journey again.

But the door opened the next second, and Jiang Yu sensed it immediately, instantly halting the dimensional folding.

Jiang Yu's body accelerated like a cannonball, instantly smashing through ten layers of mirrors and returning to the real world.

The spirits in the room vanished in an instant.

Jiang Yu landed on the bed after falling from the air.

Wang pushed open the door and frowned as he looked at Jiang Yu and his room.

What were you doing just now?

Jiang Yu shrugged. "It's nothing!"

"Am I imagining things? It seems like there were some strange spatial fluctuations in your room for a moment?"

"You're mistaken, you're just overly sensitive, Wang!"

Jiang Yu stood up and looked at Wang, "What brings you here?"

Wang frowned. "The Supreme Mage said he wants to see you!"

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

[You have completed a dream journey, a mental/soul magic skill, proficiency +200].

Chapter 6 The Ancient One's Invitation

Wang sighed as he watched Jiang Yu walk out of the room.

"A mage who has mastered the Dark Book can still move freely in Kamar-Taj!"

"It's like seeing a ghost!"

Jiang Yu couldn't hear Wang's complaints because it would take too much time to walk over.

Turning right after exiting the gate opens a dimensional portal.

Go directly to the meditation room where the Ancient One is. The Ancient One likes to be present here and feel the changes in dimensions and the multiverse.

Gu Yi sighed the moment Jiang Yu appeared.

"So the strange spatial fluctuations in your room just now couldn't have been an accident, could it?"

Gu Yi turned around and looked at Jiang Yu.

"It's just practicing magic!"

Raising his hand, he gently drew circles in the air, and the surrounding space quickly folded. The transformation of mirror space, soul space, and various spatial dimensions appeared extremely smooth to Jiang Yu.
