After Lan Luo and Helen Zhao returned to Cyborg Planet, Lan Luo let Daji take them around Cyborg Planet for a week. Only then did he send Helen Zhao and the gifts he bought for Christine back to Earth.
When the two returned home, they saw Christine unhappily watching TV again. Seeing them return, Christine said angrily, "Perhaps I shouldn't be here disturbing you two."
Lan Luo then stepped forward, embracing her and placing her on his lap, saying, "We went to get something very important and to do some experiments we couldn't do on Earth." He felt quite helpless.
Then he continued, "When I return from Vormir, we'll go travel to Xandar in the Andromeda Galaxy. How does that sound?" His tone was full of sincerity and a desire to please.
Hearing this, Christine's spirits lifted. She hugged Lan Luo's neck and said, "Are you serious? We're going to Xandar for a trip?"
"Yes, the three of us will go. That planet is also a beautiful one, with three suns, and it's incredibly huge, with a population of 12 billion," Lan Luo said, seizing the opportunity to coax his girlfriend.
"You can also bring back many local specialties from that planet. We have Space Rings we can use," Lan Luo said truthfully. Space civilizations were too low-tech; they didn't even have space-related magic. The villains he saw basically all wielded weapons with both hands.
Lan Luo returned home, put down the gifts, and wanted to take a shower and rest early. After all, accompanying Helen Zhao shopping for so many days had exhausted him. He would rather do experiments than go shopping with women. But before Lan Luo could sleep, Christine walked over, wearing a revealing outfit, following him closely. Not long after, Helen Zhao also joined the 'battle'. Four hours later, everyone slowly rested.
The next day, Lan Luo, carrying the Eye of Agamotto, used the coordinates obtained from Cyborg Planet to go directly to Vormir. It was a black, desolate, icy planet, a black sphere blocking a red, sun-like star, giving one a sense of profound loneliness in their soul. Lan Luo, using his Observation Haki, arrived at the highest peak of the planet. As soon as he entered the peak, he saw the Red Skull wearing a tattered cloak.
At this moment, Red Skull proactively said, "I didn't expect to see an Earthling here."
Lan Luo didn't want to hear a word from Red Skull. Lan Luo cast the Imperius Curse on Red Skull: "Tell me, where is the soul gem?"
Red Skull, without any reaction, said, "It's in the pool on the mountaintop. There's an illusion magic there; you can't get it."
"Take me there," Lan Luo said, then told Red Skull to lead the way. This guy was now a pure spirit, and there were many ways to deal with him.
Red Skull floated in the air, leading the way. Before long, they arrived at the pool on the mountaintop. On the black rocks, the water was also black, yet it had no color. This should be an illusion magic.
Lan Luo took out the Eye of Agamotto from his ring. Holding the Eye of Agamotto with both hands, the illusion was dispelled. When he looked again, there was a stone platform in the center of the pool, and a yellow soul gem floated above the platform. Lan Luo directly took it with his hand. This gem was not like the Power Stone, which could not be held directly.
The Power Stone's energy required a medium to output its power. Holding it would cause a certain amount of damage to biological races; for a Titan, one gem would only cause minor injuries, but for other ordinary races, an energy explosion would occur.
Having obtained the soul gem, Lan Luo did not linger. He went directly to Cyborg Planet, then took Daji to Kamar-Taj.
When Lan Luo met the Ancient One, she still smiled and looked at Lan Luo, saying, "Are you here to borrow the time stone again?" Now, what Lan Luo cared about most was probably the dark magic and the time stone here.
"Yes, Sorcerer Supreme. Let me introduce you, this is Daji, the life I created," Lan Luo said, introducing the artificial intelligence.
The Ancient One looked at Daji and said happily, "It contains Rune, human programming, and some other magical patterns. It's so amazing! You've used the Space and time stones as her energy source. What an incredible creation!" After saying that, she handed over the eye of agamotto again.
Lan Luo then bowed and said, "Master, if I evolve to the strength of a Demon God, how about you borrow magic from me? I have learned a wide range of magic now, but dark magic is a weakness." But as long as I have time, my dark magic will improve very quickly.
The Ancient One, sitting in her chair, thought for a moment and said, "We can try it. No one has walked this path before."
He could now use the power of the four gems to drive dark magic. After all, dark creatures were soul-based, and with the most powerful soul gem in the universe, Lan Luo felt that his current dark magic would push him to the level of a Dimensional Demon God, but this required time.
Lan Luo took Daji to the same small courtyard as last time. This time, Lan Luo needed to modify the magic array. Analyzing the gems was similar to last time, requiring Lan Luo to complete it alone. This time there were three gems: one gem to provide energy, and the other two gems to provide energy to stabilize the magic array.
Before long, Lan Luo took Daji into the magic array he had drawn. Lan Luo opened his left eye's "Amenominaka" and began to analyze the soul gem, which is one of the six Infinity Stones in the Marvel universe. Its core abilities are to steal, manipulate, modify, or create souls, and it can control the undead and release energy shockwaves. Inside it also hides an independent soul dimension universe, which is somewhat like the Pure Land of the Six Paths.
Soul Manipulation: Can absorb, modify, or create the souls of living beings, and even control the undead to form an army.
Energy Release: Can emit powerful shockwaves with destructive attack capabilities.
Dimensional Entrance: Inside the gem is an independent soul universe, which can store or imprison souls.
Self-Awareness: The gem has its own independent consciousness and may backfire on the user.
When Lan Luo finished analyzing the soul gem, he suddenly felt a heavy blow to his soul, causing him to vomit a mouthful of blood. Helpless, Lan Luo could only use the Izanagi he had prepared beforehand to restore his previous state. It seemed that in the future, every time he used the soul gem, he would have to prepare Izanagi.
After analyzing the soul gem, Lan Luo began analyzing the Power Stone the next day. Its appearance is a purple oval, and its carrier is the Orb. The Power Stone has the core functions of manipulating energy and enhancing physical attacks. When all its energy is released, it can instantly destroy an entire planet. Ordinary races cannot use the Power Stone; it must be used through a weapon that can bear its power.
This time, Lan Luo did not suffer a backlash, it was just that the energy of this gem was extremely vast.
When Lan Luo obtained the energy circuits and abilities of the four gems, he felt incredibly powerful, but this was just an illusion; this was not his power. If he wanted to advance further now, he either had to rely on genetic evolution or advance to a Demon God. After all, the level of life was here. Perhaps he could let Daji go to Atlantis to decipher the Tablet of Life, which could increase life and wisdom.
The foundation of magic lies in the power of the mind. Lan Luo is currently lacking the mind stone and the Reality Stone, but he believes it won't be long before they all come into Lan Luo's hands.
