chapter 0246 part 3
At this time, a large part of Yamata no Orochi's scales were charred black, and there were countless wounds on its snake body from the recent explosion. But everyone present knew that these wounds were nothing to this Giant Creature. "J.A.R.V.I.S., call Tang!" Hovering at high altitude, Tony Stark looked at the Giant Snake slithering towards Tokyo below his feet, his gaze following the direction of the Giant Snake towards the distant Tokyo with its many tall buildings.
"You plan to return to Eternity!?"
Although Tang Song had anticipated it, facing the Ancient One who directly stated she was stepping down, he still felt a headache.
Without the Ancient One, who would protect the Reality Dimension? Leaving aside everything else, just the Dimensional Evil God Dormammu would be enough to give Earth a hard time.
"It seems you have chosen a successor!?"
For someone who can observe the timeline at will, knowing too much and living too long leads to either becoming a saint or a madman.
When everything is laid bare before you, everything in the world becomes dull and uninteresting, like a piece of chewing gum chewed countless times.
Tang Song estimated that the reason the Ancient One had not interfered with him too much all along, and even cooperated with him to eliminate Mephisto, was for this reason.
It was like a new movie suddenly appearing on a disc that had been watched many times.
A Sorcerer Supreme who used the power of the Dark Dimension to protect Earth, Tang Song didn't want to delve into her purpose, as long as she wasn't his enemy.
But now the Ancient One was planning to quit. If the Time Stone fell into the hands of the new Sorcerer Supreme, Strange, wouldn't his past unsavory actions be at risk of exposure?
As for Strange's strength, Tang Song didn't take it to heart. Aside from the infinite loop aspect of the Time Stone, Strange's displayed strength was truly weak compared to the Ancient One.
"You seem to not want Strange to take my position!" The Ancient One took off the Eye of Agamotto, which contained the Time Stone, from her chest and handed it to Tang Song.
"Strange doesn't want to be the Sorcerer Supreme. Fate chose him. What he wants more is to be a top doctor. Perhaps you can heal his wrist and replace him as the Guardian of Earth!"
Looking at the Eye of Agamotto flashing with green light in front of him, Tang Song looked at the Ancient One, wanting to know her true intention.
Unfortunately, the eyes under the bald head were full of gentle smiles, like a high monk who had seen through the mortal world.
However, judging others by himself, Tang Song always felt that the Ancient One's actions were part of some plan.
Facing the Time Stone within reach, the usually greedy Boss Tang felt hesitant inside. "Buzz buzz buzz—Boss! Mr. Stark is calling!"
A mobile phone vibration, accompanied by Red Queen's loli voice, broke the somewhat awkward atmosphere.
"Hello! Tony!" Tang Song smiled apologetically at the Ancient One, took out his mobile phone, and answered the call.
The Ancient One put the necklace back on her chest.
"Tang, you should be able to see on television that a Giant Beast is rampaging in Japan and is about to enter Tokyo. This city has nearly forty million people. I hope you can help them!"
"I'm in Tokyo! Frank has already told me the situation. This Giant Beast is too massive, and conventional attacks have no effect on it at all. But I have a way!"
Tang Song walked to the edge of the rooftop with his mobile phone, listening to Tony's plea, his tone somewhat playful.
"What way?" Tony Stark's voice was a little anxious.
The distant Yamata no Orochi had already rushed into Tokyo. Although the nearby residents had already been evacuated, if Yamata no Orochi advanced another twenty kilometers, the Ordinary Person still stuck on the road would become food for the Giant Snake.
"Remember the Convergence of the Nine Realms? Since we can't do anything about this Ancient Titan, why not throw it into another world!"
Tang Song's words made Tony Stark's eyes light up, but then his gaze dimmed. "Tang, the Convergence of the Nine Realms is an astronomical phenomenon that happens once in a thousand years. We have no way to replicate it!"
"While we can't replicate that astronomical phenomenon, don't forget, the Cosmic Cube is still in our hands.
Coincidentally, I recently took a trip to Asgard and learned some techniques for opening space gates from King Odin, which allows me to temporarily open a space gate leading to the Nine Realms!"
Tang Song, in front of the Ancient One, calmly cited King Odin to back him up, seemingly completely unconcerned about the Ancient One's gaze.
"That's great, Tang! Where are you now? How can you open a space gate?"
"A temporary space gate requires a huge energy source to power it. Several large Arc Reactors are on their way. I need to requisition Japan's electrical system and half an hour of preparation time!"
While talking to Tony Stark on the phone, Tang Song looked down at the bustling crowd below. Half an hour should be enough for Yamata no Orochi to give Japan a small lesson, right? "Is your people's hatred for Japan really that strong, even in a different world?" The Ancient One's eyes were full of compassion.
Tang Song, however, smiled: "In my hometown, there's a saying, 'An enemy of ten generations can still be avenged!' I don't have any particular likes and dislikes towards the Japan of this world. However, the so-called Heart Tribulation is just about achieving clarity of mind. I'm doing this merely to soothe my mind!"
The so-called Heart Tribulation, without the external factor of the Sky Demon, is, in Buddhist terms, the seven emotions and six desires stirred up from the bottom of one's heart.
To suppress, wear down, or release this evil fire.
To achieve harmony between the spirit and the golden core in the dantian.
Since Tang Song came to the Marvel World, things had been smooth sailing.
Apart from the Japanese people, there were no suitable candidates to stir up his rage and killing intent! As Tang Song spoke these words without reservation,
The killing intent that had solidified in his sea of consciousness and chest broke through his sea of consciousness, like rapid pipa sound. The killing intent boiled over. The Yin and Yang Great Core in Tang Song's dantian slowly rotated, wearing down the strands of killing intent that had taken shape.
As the strands of killing intent were completely worn away, a clear, gold and jade-like knocking sound echoed within his dantian. Tang Song's Great Core was completely formed.
After successfully forming his core, Tang Song felt a sense of freedom, like a bird soaring in the vast sky or a fish leaping in the wide sea.
"Oh, right, Ancient One Master, if it's convenient, please send Strange down the mountain. My biology lab has recently researched quite a few agents. I think a few types should be able to treat Strange's wrist!"
