Wang was stunned, staring blankly at Jiang Yu.
This guy really wasn't affected by the Darkhold; he was still as annoying as ever.
"Jiang Yu..."
As Wang was about to speak, Jiang Yu flipped him off, grabbed a can of Coke, and tilted it backward, instantly opening a portal.
Then, he vanished.
Veins throbbed on Wang's forehead. "Damn it, Jiang Yu, where's my Sling Ring!"
He touched his waist where the Sling Ring should have been, but it was gone.
No need to guess; that bastard Jiang Yu must have taken it.
Back in his room, Jiang Yu set the Coke aside.
He casually tossed the Sling Ring behind him.
A small portal opened and then disappeared.
The Sling Ring was useless to Jiang Yu, so he might as well return it to Wang!
Lying on his bed, Jiang Yu exhaled.
With the existence of the Power of Purity, Jiang Yu didn't consume any mental energy when casting spells, but at the same time, using magic was an excellent way to train mental energy.
So, Jiang Yu's mental energy grew stronger and stronger, especially after cultivating the Darkhold.
Jiang Yu felt his mental energy explode, growing significantly.
And that feeling was wonderful.
Continuing to cultivate the Darkhold could indeed slowly increase mental energy, but the speed was too slow. If possible, Jiang Yu wanted to find the Book of Vishanti.
A power completely opposite to the Darkhold would surely cause Jiang Yu's mental energy to surge again.
This way, the magic he could unleash would be even more terrifying.
However, Jiang Yu had no idea where the Book of Vishanti was!
Probably only the Ancient One knew.
"You anomaly, you will fall into darkness sooner or later. Not even the Book of Vishanti can save you!"
"You will become a demon!"
Voices echoed in Jiang Yu's mind.
Jiang Yu was a bit speechless. Did these guys really never learn, calling out every so often?
Jiang Yu closed his eyes.
Instantly, countless undead spirits emerged around Jiang Yu.
Feeling these undead, Jiang Yu sighed, "I originally wanted the Cloak of Levitation, but since you guys are so annoying, I'll turn you into my power!"
Jiang Yu's body instantly released the power of dark magic. These undead, still hissing, crying, and screaming,
instantly quieted down. Then, one by one, they flew behind Jiang Yu, forming a cloak of undead.
"Not bad, it's pretty cool!"
Under the power of the Undead Cloak, Jiang Yu slowly floated up.
Speaking of which, Jiang Yu felt that the sorcerers in the Marvel world had no presence. They couldn't even fly easily and had to rely on such power to do so. It was... speechless... [You forcibly controlled the undead to become your power. Mental & Soul Magic proficiency +10]
Jiang Yu sighed. At this rate, he wondered when his Mental & Soul Magic would reach LV5!
[Jiang Yu]
[Talent: Eye of Truth, Immaculate Body]
[Controlled Power: Magic]
[Reality Manipulation: LV5]
[Mental & Soul: LV4]
[Elemental & Environment: LV3]
[Summoning & Curses: LV3]
[Defense & Support: LV3]
Magic is broadly divided into these five categories, but if you open each category, there are too many subdivisions.
For example, Reality Manipulation magic includes reality warping, spatial magic, time magic, etc.!
Mental control includes soul manipulation, dream control, mind magic, astral projection, dreamwalking... The world of magic is truly wondrous.
Chapter 4: First Dreamwalk
Based on Jiang Yu's magic level, most sorcerers at Kamar-Taj were at LV1.
Some had even only reached level 1 in a single type of magic.
To reach level 2 in a particular type of magic was generally considered a high-ranking sorcerer.
And to reach level 3, that would be around Wang's level.
Level 4 was already at the level of a Sorcerer Supreme.
Of course, for an existence like the Ancient One, perhaps her Reality Manipulation magic also reached LV5!
However, her other magic was probably only around level 2, or perhaps level 3?
But the Ancient One had the Time Stone, and if it came to a real fight, the power of the Time Stone was indeed difficult to counter.
However, Jiang Yu's purpose for coming out this time was to search for his next target.
Although relying on his Eye of Truth talent, Jiang Yu could gradually grow stronger in magic learning, even with diligent practice.
But the speed of increase was too slow.
Looking at the Darkhold hanging on his waist, before obtaining this item, Jiang Yu had practiced madly to raise various types of magic to level 2.
And after obtaining the Darkhold, in just half a year, at least his Reality Manipulation magic was boosted to level 5 by Jiang Yu.
Although Jiang Yu didn't delve deeply into other types of magic, they all increased by one level on average.
This speed of improvement was completely different from slowly cultivating on his own.
If he could obtain the Book of Vishanti, then his magic level would continue to rise.
And since there was a faster way to cultivate, there was no need to suffer unnecessarily!
Although he had promised the Ancient One that he wouldn't leave this place, he hadn't promised the Ancient One that he wouldn't leave!
There were many ways to leave.
It didn't necessarily have to be his physical body leaving; his consciousness could leave too.
Jiang Yu sat cross-legged, and countless undead spirits emerged behind him.
They transformed into a long black cloak behind Jiang Yu, seemingly made of black smoke from hell, instantly engulfing the entire room.
Reality Manipulation magic could not only twist reality.
It also included spatial magic, such as teleportation, like dimensional portals!
As well as folding space and creating dimensions.
The dimension where Jiang Yu was previously imprisoned was an independent dimension created by the Ancient One using her magic.
And Jiang Yu could now do the same.
He could even fold dimensions, making it seem like he was in real space, but in reality, it was like a piece of white paper folded countless times, allowing Jiang Yu to enter another dimension.
Jiang Yu folded the dimension nearly ten times repeatedly.
Only then did he stop. At this moment, if someone were in Jiang Yu's room, they would find that patterns similar to a spatial kaleidoscope appeared around Jiang Yu.
[You have practiced spatial magic, proficiency +5]
The next second, Jiang Yu suddenly opened his eyes. From Jiang Yu's perspective, there was an invisible mirror in front of him.
And in the mirror, there was a reflection of his own back, and in front of his reflection in the mirror, there was also a mirror.
This repeated ten times!
This was space folded ten times consecutively.
'This way, dreamwalking shouldn't be sensed by Master, right?'
If the Ancient One knew that Jiang Yu, in order not to be sensed by her, had folded dimensions ten times and then still intended to dreamwalk, that would be utterly insane.
But Jiang Yu was different. His Immaculate Body allowed him to maintain optimal condition.
He wouldn't be unable to dreamwalk just because he was simultaneously maintaining ten spatial folds, which was an extremely mentally draining task.
However, this would indeed affect the effectiveness of Jiang Yu's dreamwalking.
At most, after Jiang Yu activated dreamwalking and his consciousness entered another multiverse, his own strength would be slightly affected, probably only able to exert two-thirds of his power.
But it didn't matter; two-thirds was already enough.
Closing his eyes, the Darkhold beside him floated up, turning its pages automatically.
Jiang Yu had learned all the contents of the Darkhold, but the Darkhold also had another function: to enhance magic, especially to strengthen the power of dark magic release.
Just as the Time Stone provided special amplification when the Ancient One cast time-based magic.
Black magical light flickered, and red mist drifted from the corners of Jiang Yu's eyes.
Then, the next second.
Jiang Yu's consciousness seemed to be traversing a spacetime wormhole.
He quickly arrived in another world.
Opening his eyes, in an ordinary middle-class white family home, Jiang Yu looked at everything in the room.
"It seems that in this universe, I'm doing quite well."
On the desk was a group photo, and the white-skinned beauty in the photo looked quite pretty.
"Good taste, as expected of me!"
Saying that, Jiang Yu snapped his fingers. The next second, a dimensional portal appeared behind him, sparks rotating like a blacksmith's forge, and Jiang Yu stepped through.
With one step, Jiang Yu had arrived at the entrance of the New York Sanctum Sanctorum.
The reason for coming here was, of course, for the Book of Vishanti.
The timeline of this dimensional universe was a little faster; currently, it should be when Stephen Strange was the Sorcerer Supreme.
Jiang Yu's arrival brought a surge of magic that he made no attempt to conceal. Inside the Sanctum Sanctorum, Strange was drinking coffee when he suddenly sensed something.
His eyes widened abruptly. "Oh, God, you're not kidding!"
The next second, the defensive magic of the Sanctum Sanctorum's main door was directly tampered with.
Jiang Yu retracted his hand. "I'm not very good at Defense & Support type magic, but... with the help of the Dark Dimension's power, it's not difficult!"
[You have tampered with the Sanctum Sanctorum's defensive magic. Defense Magic proficiency +100]
Not bad!
If there were a hundred more doors like this, his Defense Magic should be able to level up.
"Who are you? You're radiating a dark aura. It looks like you're a sorcerer who has fallen to the dark side!"
The curly-haired Strange, cloaked in the Cloak of Levitation, slowly descended from above, magic light flickering in his hands, his eyes fixed on Jiang Yu.
Feeling the other party's magical fluctuations, Jiang Yu smiled. "Level three... or barely level four. You must have only recently become the Sorcerer Supreme!"
"Level three? What are you talking about? I am indeed the Sorcerer Supreme, the Sorcerer Supreme who protects this place!"
"No wonder you don't even know me. You probably haven't used that thing to freely observe worlds across different timelines yet!"
Jiang Yu raised his hand and pointed at the Eye of Agamotto on Strange's chest.
