Tony respends time with his parents, and during this time, Ethan and the Ancient One talk about magic in this vast underground.

For Ethan, this kind of small talk is of great help, because some of the theories that the ancient one inadvertently mentions will bring him a lot of help.

After all, the Ancient One is a master who has studied magic for a long time, and many of her already have an instinct like eating and drinking, which is likely to be a problem that a young mage like Ethan has not been studying magic for a long time.

It's a pity that a lot of the knowledge mentioned by the ancient one can only be used as a reference today.

As Ethan's strength became stronger and stronger, there was a growing difference between his own cultivation method and Kama Taj's mage cultivation system, and there was less and less experience that could be directly used, and a lot of content could only be used for reference and broadening his horizons.

"The path you have chosen is a difficult one, but if you can keep going, there is almost no end to the ultimate achievement. ”

Ethan did not deliberately conceal the path he took: focus on the cultivation of spiritual power, and then use his own spiritual power as the core to condense and brew a magic power that is completely his own. The magic slowly changed from a spring to a pool of water, then to streams, rivers and lakes, and finally to a sea of magic.

In addition to the fact that the magic power is completely brewed by itself, there will be no side effects, and it is easy to use, and you only need to move your thoughts, the ancient one is also keenly aware that the magic ocean is not the end.

When the mana has accumulated enough power, use the huge magic power to create a big bang, and let your spiritual power world extend and evolve like the Big Bang infinitely?

Or expand the ocean to the extent that it becomes a planet, and then condense new magical planets, and the ultimate goal is a galaxy formed by countless magical planets.

"There's no way I'm going to choose the first option. ”

The first one looks very good, the strength will grow to a very high level in one step, that spiritual power land will directly become a spiritual power universe, and then because of the explosion almost integrated into the magic power of the entire universe, it will also slowly change into a variety of existences, enriching the composition of this universe at the same time, it will also provide Ethan with more and more diverse magic power.

It is equivalent to Ethan himself possessing the magic of a cosmic space, and it is the kind that is constantly regenerating and growing.

But this method was too drastic, and he didn't dare to apply the purely theoretical doctrine of the Big Bang to himself casually.

He felt that if he really wanted to play the Big Bang in his spiritual power world, he would not blow up a universe in the end, and it would be almost impossible to blow up his soul to the ground.

Therefore, he will almost certainly choose the second path that is more secure: first accumulate mana to a certain extent, then slowly turn the magic ocean into a planet full of magic, then try to turn this planet into a star, and then slowly build a new planet, making a composition similar to a star and several planets in the solar system.

And then little by little the number of 'stars' is increased until a massive galaxy is formed.

He estimated that when his spiritual power world could reach the planetary level, he would be able to fight Thanos.

If the magical planet reaches the level of a star, it should be able to stabilize Thanos, who has the Infinity Gauntlet.

If he went one step further and created a system like the Solar System, with a single star and a few planets, he was confident that he could easily defeat Thor, who had the Storm Destroyer.

At that time, he was at least the strength of the peak Odin.

However, these are all rough estimates by Ethan, and the actual situation will definitely be biased. Maybe he only needs to cultivate the magic planet to the level of a star to reach the level of Odin.

After all, he couldn't be sure what kind of strength he was at that level, and he didn't know what level Odin's combat power had reached.

The extent of a galaxy like the Milky Way, which is more distant and composed of countless stars, he didn't dare to think about it for the time being.

As for the real evolution of a universe...... If he could reach that level, he didn't know what state or appearance it would be, maybe he could be immortal with only magic at that time?

However, he vaguely realized that with only the magic attribute he currently mastered, even if his magic power continued to grow rapidly, it would be impossible for him to turn his spiritual power into a planet.

It's not just a matter of the amount of mana.

In addition to the huge amount of mana, it also needs to be of high enough mass and complete the properties of those evolutions, after all, the composition of a planet is very complex.

"It seems that I have to speed up my research and mastery of various attributes. ”

Not to mention anything else, Ethan felt that he had to master the natural elements of the traditional magic system first, and then he had to learn and master the more unique concepts of some factions, such as ether, nature, and other energies.

After all, his ultimate goal is to build a universe, and the universe is all-encompassing.

"In this way, I still have a long way to go. ”

"You shouldn't have to worry about not living enough. ”

"That's right. ”

With the knowledge of the injection of strengthening potions, the possession of divinity, the fountain of life, and the special magic array that gathers life force, Ethan did not need to worry about his lifespan for at least a thousand years.

And as his life level continues to improve, his upper limit of lifespan will continue to increase, which will become a virtuous circle, and eventually by the time he completes the spiritual power universe, lifespan may have become a meaningless word for him.

"What a bright path. ”

The path of the ancient one is a very orthodox way of the mage of Kama Taj.

Hone your will, master your own mental power, manipulate the special energy that exists in the world, and use these energy to achieve your own goals in unique means.

From this, it can be seen that the mana used by the mages of Kama Taj is mainly from the outside.

For example, the supreme mages of the past generations have obtained the magic power they need from a special space, but the ancient one is more special, and she chooses an extremely dangerous dark space.

Ethan suddenly thought of a question at this time.

The Ancient One had decided to cut off her connection with the dark space, so after she regained her life, although she no longer had to worry about being eroded by the dark power, she also lost that powerful strength.

"How are you going to regain your strength after you get your life back?"

"I just want to be a happy ordinary mage. ”

It was impossible for her to touch the dark space again, although with her previous experience and the fact that her soul had not changed, she could easily reconnect to the dark space.

But in that case, Dormammu would understand that he had been tricked, and he would definitely find trouble with the Ancient One.

It is also difficult to find a new source of power, most of the mages of Kama Taj are unable to find a different space with huge magic power as their own source of magic power, and the few who can find a suitable source of magic power have basically become Supreme Mages, and these Supreme Mages basically only have that one source of magic until they die.

If the Ancient One could find a source of magic to compete with the dark space, there would be no need for her to take a huge risk to connect to the dark space for many years.

"People who have stood at the top can't endure that kind of ordinary life. ”

Ethan believes in the character of the ancient one, and will not do anything bad because of 'falling into the dust'. However, he didn't think that Gu Yi could truly be a 'happy' ordinary mage, because she would definitely not be happy.

"As for the source of the mana, I do know a few, and you can try it when the time comes. ”

For example, he can connect with the holy light and arcane energy, although he doesn't know how the ancient one and these two energies are related, but with the ability of the ancient one, even if it is forcibly driven, it is not difficult.

"Then I'll say thank you in advance. ”

Gu Yi did not pretentiously refuse, she knew that what Ethan said was not wrong, how could she, who had really stood at the peak, really be willing to be an ordinary mage? Even if she couldn't connect to the dark space, she also didn't give up the way to become stronger, she even considered whether to take the path Ethan was taking, and directly focus on her own cultivation.

Although this road is not easy to follow, Gu Yi has enough confidence in her talent and understanding, and she believes that as long as she is given enough time, she can also achieve good results.

Of course, she didn't want to ask for a cultivation method from Ethan, but she wanted to follow this line of thought and explore her own way forward.

She believed that Ethan would not refuse if she spoke, but she was a mage who shook the multidimensional universe and asked a junior for something, and she was really a little embarrassed to speak.

Before I knew it, a short time had passed, and the ancient one had chatted with Ethan for a while before leaving here.

The purpose of her visit to Ethan today has been achieved, and now she has to start arranging the issue of an heir, and at the same time, she has to think carefully about how to train Tony Stark to be a great mage.

Shortly after the Ancient One left, Tony finally walked out of the room.

Ethan saw that Tony's eyes were red, he should have just cried, but at this time he didn't tease, just asked very calmly:

"Finished talking about the old one?"

"My father has something he wants to ask you. ”

Ethan nodded, he estimated that after Howard understood the whole situation, he would definitely have to talk to himself. That's why he's waiting here, the only thing he's not sure about is how long the family will be talking, and if he just chats for a day and a night, he's waiting here dryly, and he's a bit stupid.

Fortunately, Howard was in his right mind, and immediately asked Tony to come out to find Ethan after figuring out the situation.

Back in that room, Ethan saw Mr. and Mrs. Stark again, and Howard Stark was very enthusiastic this time, immediately walking up to Ethan and giving him a hug.

"Thank you so much for everything you did for Tony. ”

I have to say that compared to Tony, Howard is not only first-class in invention and creation, but also much better than Tony in terms of human sophistication.

"You're welcome, Tony helped me a lot. ”

In two simple sentences, both parties feel a lot closer, which is a good start for the next conversation.
