Warning

Asher knew well that the energy he absorbed before was not even 1% of the Space Stone's power - at most it was just a small portion, a little more than what the Stone passively releases!

As one of the singularities present at the origin of the universe, in essence the Infinity Stones are an aggregate of energy, linked to the fundamental aspects of the universe, virtually the power within them is infinite.

Most of the time, the power of the gems is in a relatively stable state, and there are two ways to actually use them.

The first way is to extract the energy within the jewel through external tools to achieve the effect of manipulating the corresponding aspect of the Jewel.

This approach can be seen in the immature methods of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra, and in Thanos' near-perfect use of the ''Infinity Gauntlet''!

The second method is to gain control of the jewel by studying it step by step, deeply understanding the aspect to which it is linked, but this path takes a long time.

This method is used by a figure, with whom Asher is quite familiar - The Ancient One!

However, Asher did not intend to use either method.

He didn't have time to spend centuries studying or the technology to build an Infinity Gauntlet.

The method he chose was to see if he could let the system directly absorb jewel!

[Special Item ''Space Stone'' detected, can be completely absorbed, time estimating half a month, can be exchanged for 1,000,000,000 of system points]

"... Motherfucker! "

After hearing the point number, which was undoubtedly astronomical, Asher who was almost drooling couldn't help but curse.

"Absorb immediately..."

But the moment Asher gave the order to absorb the gem.

"Buzz!"

An ominous feeling took over the room.

So how far can his vision reach...

The space, was broken.

A truly frightening phenomenon, it was almost impossible to describe in words the feeling that such a scene caused.

The space in front, which human perception could not sense, was like a piece of glass breaking, the whole process was slow and silent, but it would definitely make the hearts of those who watched it fill with fear!

It had been a long time since Asher felt the sensation of wanting to run away, but now as he tried he realized he couldn't move.

He could feel it, a majestic consciousness on the other side of the space paying attention to every inch of his body.

It was as if... The world itself was watching his every move.

'I will die! '

Looking at the layers of broken space, unable to do anything...

Asher really felt the approach of death...

"Biiii!"

Of all Asher's Pokémon, Celebi flew directly in front of its master!

"Buzz!"

His small body began to glow with an enormous amount of energy!

Covering the entire surrounding space with a mysterious green light!

Asher had seen this kind of power before with The Ancient One - it was the ''Power of Time''!

Thus, the speed of the propagation of the spatial collapse stagnated, and then…

"What?!"

As if everything was a dream, the space began to stabilize!

"Sir... I'm saved... Phew..."

The feeling of being watched stopped, at that moment Asher finally felt relieved, looking at the place where everything happened he could still feel the cold touch of death on his neck, although now everything was normal.

The other Pokémon also let out a low roar at this moment, it was obvious that they also felt the existence of whatever it was.

"Biiii..."

Even Celebi, who had the power of life, was exhausted after all this, it was difficult to even maintain the flight, which landed in Asher's arms, and when he did he closed his eyes and directly fell asleep.

Asher knew well how Celebi saved him now.

[Song of Time]

[Attribute: Psychic]

[Introduction: Consumes all your energy to activate the power of time, nullifying all incoming attacks for a short period of time]

[Duration: 1 second]

Celebi learned this skill a long time ago, but never used it... However, it was what saved Asher's life today!

"What the hell was that now...

"That was ''Lady Infinity.''

A familiar voice suddenly reached Asher's ears, and when he turned his head to look, he saw The Ancient One coming out of a portal right behind him.

The Supreme Sorceress, who hadn't visited him in a long time, took a deep look at Celebi who was sleeping soundly, and then looked at Asher himself: "Asher... I think we need to talk."

Ten minutes later, at Kamar Taj.

"You don't need to be worried- Her gaze retreated."

Pouring a cup of tea for Asher, the Elder's words were very calm.

Of course, it wasn't you who almost died!

Asher listened to these words silently, but he couldn't help but complain in his heart - the feeling of imminent death, with no chance of resisting, made it difficult for him to forget today.

"What the hell happened to me now?"

The Ancient One looked at Asher, and then explained calmly.

"What happened was a warning from ''Lady Infinity'' - the conceptual personification of all space that is, was and will be in the universe."

"Lady Infinite?"

Asher had certainly heard of that name.

The five fundamental entities of the Marvel universe - Infinity, Eternity, Death, Oblivion and Galactus.

These five beings are some of the most powerful in the entire Marvel Universe, personifications of fundamental abstract concepts.

Lady Infinity, who had just attacked Asher was the conceptual personification of the space between abstract entities.

"Because she..."

Asher was wondering why he was targeted by a universal level boss like Lady Infinity, but he ended up cutting off in the middle of her words.

"...It's because of the Space Stone, right? "

The Ancient One nodded solemnly: "Asher I once said that his identity is very special, and that I would not interfere..."

"But... Whatever you were going to do with the jewel now, I advise you not to do it."

Obviously, although she didn't know exactly what Asher wanted to do, she was able to guess a little.

Except for the "World Eater", the other abstract entities rarely intervene personally in anything in the universe.

The only reason capable of leading them to act... Is something that threatens the existence of the Universe!

"..."

Asher understood why it happened almost instantly.

Inside the space jewel is the energy source that supports the Marvel Universe's concept of space, which in itself is indestructible.

Even if someone destroys the physical form of the Infinity Stones by some means, the concept that the destroyed stone represents will still continue to exist in this universe.

Which is still tolerable for the abstract entities of the Marvel Universe, so even if Thanos wants to destroy half the life in the universe, and then destroy the Stones, they still won't interfere.

But what Asher intended to do was not like that - he wanted the system to completely absorb the Space Stone.

If he really did this, then it would be equivalent to this universe's concept of Space disappearing forever!

And this is naturally intolerable for Lady Infinity, who is the personification of Space in the universe.

Therefore, Lady Infinity directly gave a "warning" in her own way—although that warning almost killed Asher!

"I'm really screwed."

Then Asher was truly speechless - thinking about what happened, and he almost took his own life!

"No... You're in luck."

The Ancient One, on the other hand, corrected Asher's words, then pointed at Celebi who was still sleeping soundly in her arms, "Although I don't know how he did it, he can break free from Lady Infinity's 'spatial stagnation'. , which is almost impossible to do." "

"So, Asher – it's a blessing for you to get a summoned beast like Celebi."

In fact, she still cannot understand why Celebi can act against the power of an abstract entity.

"..."

Compared to The Ancient One bewilderment, Asher Lin was very clear about the reason.

Why can Celebi act under Lady Infinity's power?

The answer is simple – because Celebi also has a ''concept''!

As the owner of the power of life, although Celebi has just gained the power, and is still very weak compared to Infinity.

In terms of position, they are undoubtedly similar class existences, which allowed Celebi to use her other skills to save Asher!

''This time was enough... Developing my Pokémon still depends on Awakening after all!''

Then Asher secretly sighed in his heart, and at the same time, his decision to not exchange the energy absorbed from the cube for points became more and more correct, but rather saved it to exchange it for an awakening item in the future.
