Chapter 009: The Magical Dimensions

The boiling point of iron is over two thousand degrees Celsius.

In other words, Wang Bo's current heat vision cannot even melt iron; this ability is very weak. However, Wang Bo knows that as he grows stronger, his heat vision will also become stronger.

By then, melting steel will be a piece of cake.

Moreover, besides superhuman abilities, Wang Bo also has magic, and melting steel with magic is no problem.

And compared to the growth of his steel-like body, over these past few months, Wang Bo felt that his mastery of magic had increased the fastest, far surpassing his steel body.

Since coming into contact with the magic of the Marvel universe, Wang Bo's attack methods have diversified, and his means of dealing with enemies are no longer limited to pure violence and strength.

Although fist-to-flesh combat is indeed satisfying, diversified methods allow Wang Bo to handle most situations more calmly.

In addition, Wang Bo has not given up on exploring his demonic bloodline.

After all, Sparta is indeed formidable; his bloodline, in a sense, is definitely among the top-tier demonic bloodlines.

As he delves deeper into the potential of his bloodline, Wang Bo's magic power becomes purer, not only in quality but also in quantity, having at least doubled compared to before.

This means that Wang Bo's combat duration has been extended.

After all, the amount of magic power indeed affects how long Wang Bo can fight.

However, compared to the Ancient One, Wang Bo's magic power still has a huge gap, because Wang Bo only has the magic power within his own body, while the Ancient One possesses a whole world.

On this point, one must mention the special nature of the Marvel universe.

The Marvel universe has many magical dimensions, and the so-called magical dimensions refer to realms whose basic properties do not obey physical laws but are governed by magical energy.

Some of these have been discovered, while others have not.

These magical dimensions are divided into Inner Planes, Outer Planes, Split Realms, and Distant Realms.

The Inner Planes are a series of dimensions closely connected to Earth's plane, some inhabited or created by pantheon gods worshipped by Earth's inhabitants, such as Asgard, where Thor resides.

The All-Father of Asgard can mobilize the power of Asgard to become immensely powerful.

Also, the goddess Hela, when standing in Asgard, likewise draws upon Asgard's power.

As for the Outer Planes, the laws of the physical world disappear, revealing colorful abstract landscapes. The atmosphere, land, trees, and all matter in these dimensions are composed of mysterious luminous bodies.

Unlike the Inner Planes, the inhabitants of the Outer Planes generally do not contact or interfere with matters of Earth's dimension.

The most famous among them is the Crimson Universe, with Cyttorak as its master.

As for the third type, the Split Realms, they are a vast plane shattered into many planes due to conflicts between realms.

Earth's physical laws do not apply here; islands float into the ether, swallowed by surreal chasms. Gravity does not exist, and time flows differently.

The Dark Dimension is one such realm. For example, Dormammu, the nemesis of Doctor Strange, was once a sorcerer.

He accidentally discovered the Dark Dimension and entered it, aiming to become the master of the dark space.

Dormammu abandoned his original physical body and gained immensely powerful dark energy.

Dormammu can draw pure mystical energy from the Dark Dimension.

And he can convert this energy into superpowers such as invisibility, altering his size and shape, controlling elements, telepathy, teleportation, etc.

He can also create life and grant powerful abilities to others.

In this universe, the Ancient One was also secretly drawing power from the Dark Dimension to sustain her own life.

Her purpose was to find, before her death, a sorcerer who could inherit her position as Sorcerer Supreme.

So when Strange appeared, the Ancient One did not hesitate and went to her death calmly.

As for the final Far Realm, it was too far away; even Wang Bo was not very clear about it, so he would not mention it. But he was very clear on one point.

That was that the magic within the sorcerers of this world—or rather, the cosmic energy—was not cultivated bit by bit through their own practice, but was drawn from the power of these magical dimensions.

Or rather, borrowed from the power of these magical dimensions.

So when they unleashed their ultimate moves, they never had to worry about running out of magical energy. With a magical dimension backing them, filled with inexhaustible energy, asking them to consider the problem of magical depletion—wasn't that absurd?

In the Marvel world, why was Doctor Strange the most powerful Sorcerer Supreme?

It was because the Eye of Agamotto allowed him to freely traverse different time dimensions, enabling Doctor Strange to use magical powers from almost all dimensions, such as the Limbo, the Crimson Universe, the Dark Dimension, the Far Realm, and so on.

So he was extremely powerful.

After Wang Bo understood the magical power of this world, he also considered whether to find a magical dimension and draw power from it.

Later, Wang Bo gave up. Mainly because magical dimensions were not easy to find.

Of course, more importantly, after Wang Bo left this multiverse, wanting to draw power from the magical dimensions of the Marvel world across one multiverse, or even a dozen multiverses, was nothing but a pipe dream.

So this method was not suitable for him.

Therefore, Wang Bo could only take the path of returning all power to himself, bit by bit excavating his demonic bloodline. After he had excavated his demonic bloodline to its extreme, he would then find a way to enhance it.

Of course, this was not an easy task.

Moreover, no matter how powerful the demonic bloodline was, its upper limit was far inferior to Superman's Man of Steel physique.

After all, Superman's upper limit was truly terrifying.

…

A knock sounded at the door. Wang Bo said softly, "Come in."

Black Widow pushed open the door, carrying a cup of coffee. "Boss, your coffee."

"Thanks." Wang Bo stepped forward, took the coffee, took a careful sip, and revealed a hint of enjoyment. The coffee beans he had given to Black Widow were obtained through the Gourmet Tablecloth.

They came from the world of Toriko.

Both in flavor and rich texture, they far surpassed the coffee beans of this world. Coffee brewed from such beans was a true delight.

"Boss."

"What?" Wang Bo turned to look at her.

Black Widow looked at Wang Bo, seemed to hesitate, and finally said, "The coffee beans are good."

"They really are quite good." Wang Bo considered himself a generous person and said readily, "If you want some, you can brew a cup for yourself."

"Thanks," said Black Widow.

"You're welcome." Wang Bo took another sip of coffee and said casually, "Alright, go to work."

Although he had allowed Black Widow to stay here, he did not want to have deep contact with her. After all, he only wanted to live an ordinary, peaceful life and not get involved with S.H.I.E.L.D.

Just then, a few sparks burst forth from the void, and a palm-sized portal opened between Wang Bo and Black Widow.

A slip of paper passed through the portal and fluttered down gently.
