Ancient One felt the constant changes in the dimensions, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.
As one of her disciples, Jiang Yu was indeed exceptionally, exceptionally talented.
He might even be more outstanding than Stephen Strange.
But unfortunately, this disciple... was a bit too terrifying.
Looking at the Darkhold on Jiang Yu's waist.
"So!"
"You've pretty much completely mastered it, haven't you?"
Jiang Yu nodded, "That's right!"
Hearing this answer made Ancient One even more worried.
"Have you ever dreamwalked?" Ancient One asked Jiang Yu very seriously, her gaze fixed on him.
At this question, Jiang Yu's eyes flickered, "No, I haven't had time yet!"
However, Ancient One still noticed Jiang Yu's subtle change in expression, but she didn't say much.
At least for now, she hadn't sensed any danger of universes colliding.
Reckless use of dreamwalking could cause universes to deviate from their orbits, leading to collisions.
Which would result in the demise of two universes.
Just like the world on the verge of disappearing in Doctor Strange 2.
"Give up the Darkhold, Yu!"
Ancient One sighed, stood up, and poured Jiang Yu a cup of tea. "Although you haven't been corrupted yet, and I truly can't sense any corruption in you!"
"Perhaps it's because you're special, but your specialness doesn't mean the world will be the same as you."
Magical light shimmered around Ancient One, seemingly converging into a holographic projection in front of Jiang Yu.
"Every time you use dark magic, especially dreamwalking, it's an act of dark power corrupting the world. You might escape harm, but this world won't!"
"Long-term use of this power will leave the world riddled with holes."
In the scene created by Ancient One, strange dimensional creatures poured into the real world one by one.
Jiang Yu frowned, "Teacher, magic should be able to fix this phenomenon, right? At its core, this is just reality-manipulating magic."
Hearing Jiang Yu's words, Ancient One paused slightly, "Your thinking is indeed very advanced."
But Ancient One nodded, "That's right, it can indeed be fixed, but such a massive repair project would probably be beyond the capabilities of a hundred of me."
This was something Jiang Yu had forgotten, thinking that as long as he didn't use dreamwalking, such things wouldn't happen.
But clearly, dark magic wasn't just dreamwalking; even other spells would affect the world.
However, occasional use could still be repaired.
But long-term frequent use would definitely not work.
The strongest reality-manipulating magic should be Wanda's chaos magic, and... the Reality Stone, also known as the Aether.
If he could master these two powers, then dark magic would have no side effects.
Jiang Yu thought it was very possible.
"So!"
Ancient One stood with her hands behind her back, looking at Jiang Yu. "I need you to give up dark magic!"
Jiang Yu's eyes shifted, "Teacher, I understand your concerns."
Back then, Ancient One, despite having the Time Stone and being more powerful than him, chose not to kill him.
She merely sealed him in a special dimension. Now, in return, facing Ancient One's reasonable request, Jiang Yu couldn't refuse.
However!
"Teacher, if you don't want me to continue using dark magic, could you let me see the Book of the Vishanti?"
Ancient One paused slightly, "You want to see the Book of the Vishanti?"
"That's right!"
"Impossible. You've already mastered the Darkhold. These two powers are mutually exclusive. You..."
"But Teacher, haven't you already realized that I haven't been corrupted by darkness? I should still be able to cultivate the contents of the Book of the Vishanti, right!"
That was indeed true.
It would also be a very good test. If Jiang Yu could truly learn the contents of the Book of the Vishanti, it would not only help Jiang Yu.
It would also test whether Jiang Yu was truly uncorrupted by darkness, or if the corruption was so deep that it couldn't be detected.
Ancient One looked at Jiang Yu, deep in thought.
But Ancient One didn't think for too long; instead, she directly looked up at Jiang Yu.
"Alright!"
This way, it seemed she wouldn't have to dreamwalk to find the Book of the Vishanti anymore, which was quite good.
Ancient One walked towards Jiang Yu, and under Jiang Yu's puzzled gaze, she suddenly raised her hand.
Green magic instantly enveloped them both.
Jiang Yu frowned slightly.
"This is... time magic! Teacher, what are you trying to do?"
Ancient One, standing in front of Jiang Yu, had a slight smile on her face. She gently twisted her hand, and instantly, the Mirror Dimension enveloped them.
The surrounding scenery began to change.
Jiang Yu frowned slightly. His Eye of Truth allowed him to notice that the time magic that had just enveloped them was a spell similar to a time loop.
This magic was simple, but breaking it was very difficult.
Unless one could directly snatch the Eye of Agamotto from Ancient One, or directly draw power from the Dark Dimension.
"You said you haven't been corrupted by darkness, so now I want to see if you truly haven't been consumed by darkness!"
After saying that, Ancient One spread her hands, sparks of magic erupted, and patterns of magic emerged, forming a weapon similar to a folding fan.
Seeing this, Jiang Yu was a bit speechless.
She was clearly a sorcerer, but she insisted on close combat?
Fine!
He wouldn't use dark magic. So-called dark magic was just drawing power from the Dark Dimension.
Even if Jiang Yu didn't use dark magic, his magic level wouldn't change.
For Jiang Yu, the most core function of the Darkhold and the Book of the Vishanti was to raise his magic level.
"Teacher! Since last time, we haven't fought yet, have we!"
Jiang Yu smiled.
Looking at the magical weapon in Ancient One's hand, Jiang Yu sighed, "To be honest, Teacher, I'm not too fond of using this kind of magic. Why do sorcerers insist on close combat?"
However, despite saying so, magical patterns also emerged on Jiang Yu's hand.
Summoning incantation magic!
Energy construction, creating magical weapons and shields and such.
Like Doctor Strange's magical blades, magical chains, etc.
And Ancient One's magical folding fan was essentially just an application of energy construction.
Jiang Yu raised his hand, and a horizontal saber instantly appeared. Looking at the weapon in Jiang Yu's hand, the magical fluctuations were pure, without any power from the Dark Dimension.
Ancient One smiled.
Chapter 7: Battle Against the True Sorcerer Supreme
Roar!!
Wailing undead instantly appeared.
The Cloak of the Undead appeared behind Jiang Yu. The moment she saw the undead, Ancient One was startled.
'He's even... mastered the undead?'
The moment Ancient One was stunned, Jiang Yu had already charged forward, swinging the horizontal saber in his hand directly at Ancient One.
Defensive magic instantly constructed.
A magical shield blocked in front, and magical sparks collided continuously.
Under the enhancement of the Eye of Truth, the construction plan of this magical shield directly appeared in Jiang Yu's mind.
Jiang Yu exerted force, magic infused, and in an instant, he changed the construction of the magical shield, breaking its balance, and the shield suddenly disappeared.
A saber slash came down.
Ancient One had already dodged to the side, swinging the magical folding fan in her hand towards Jiang Yu.
The collision of magical weapons caused flashes of sparks.
"The undead summoned by the Darkhold can even be controlled by you. Perhaps you truly have never been corrupted by darkness!"
Ancient One said, and Jiang Yu's figure instantly retreated.
With the Cloak of the Undead, Jiang Yu possessed the ability to fly, which Ancient One did not.
And in the next second, countless dimensional portals opened.
The magical blade in Jiang Yu's hand flew out directly, stabbing directly at Ancient One.
"You're not the only one who can break magic!" A smile appeared on Ancient One's face.
In one year, Jiang Yu could directly break magic, and even break her own magic.
The shimmering magical patterns in her hand expanded, enveloping Jiang Yu's magical blade, instantly dissolving it.
But at the same time, flames erupted from the dimensional portals on all sides, directly spewing towards Ancient One.
Elemental environmental magic, capable of controlling energy attacks such as fire, storms, and ice.
Feeling the flames erupting around her, Ancient One's smile widened.
In an instant, she understood how Jiang Yu had done it.
If elemental magic were used directly in the Mirror Dimension, Ancient One could use the power of the Mirror Dimension to directly break the magic in reverse.
But if the power erupted directly from other dimensions through dimensional portals to attack.
That would be completely different. This power wasn't born in the Mirror Dimension, so there was no way to eliminate it with the Mirror Dimension's power.
The only thing she could do was...
Her single hand instantly condensed magical patterns, gently placing it on her abdomen and pressing down.
Immediately, magical barriers appeared simultaneously all around, blocking the impact of the flames.
Ancient One looked at Jiang Yu in front of her, her eyes full of admiration.
This was not only a disciple with superb comprehension of magic, but also one who had understood magic to an incredible degree.
And she herself had only reached this point after becoming the Sorcerer Supreme.
But Jiang Yu had done it in just one year!
Boom boom boom!
The Mirror Dimension began to change, collapsing Jiang Yu's dimensional portals. Strictly speaking, it was only a slight influence.
But a slight influence was enough, coupled with the power of the Mirror Dimension.
It could easily sever Jiang Yu's dimensional portals.
At this exact moment, Ancient One also completed the manipulation of the Mirror Dimension. In the next second, her other hand slammed down on the ground.
The ground instantly changed, and slabs of floor rose wildly, like waves, surging towards Jiang Yu.
