MWM Chapter 568

“Completing this final step should just about do it!”

In the courtyard of his secluded residence, Leo, while helping Wanda and little Charlie decorate the Christmas tree, diverted most of his spiritual energy into the Moon Reading World.

He then began transferring countless souls he had collected from the Underworld into the newly constructed cycle of reincarnation.

After returning to the main world, there were many things that needed to be absorbed and processed. To better prepare for the main quest, he spent another year in the world of *The Elder Scrolls*.

During that year, he discussed magic with the mages of the Psijic Order while using the cosmos of the four gods he had defeated to sharpen his own cosmos.

Along the way, he took a trip to Solstheim, dealt with the first Dragonborn, and even traded some magical knowledge with the Daedric Prince Hermaeus Mora.

After nine months in *The Elder Scrolls*, through continuous training and growth, he finally achieved the Ninth Sense, *Amoroso Shiki*, fully entering the realm of the gods.

As his cosmos grew stronger, so did the Moon Reading World, which significantly sped up the integration of the Soul Cairn.

When the year of his time in the small world was up, and he returned to the main world, it wasn’t long before he fully absorbed the Soul Cairn into the Moon Reading World, establishing it as the realm of reincarnation and building the foundations of an underworld.

The *Eternal Heart* became the sun, *Chibaku Tensei* simulated the moon, the *Blood Fountain* nourished the earth, filling it with life energy, and the Soul Cairn was transformed into the underworld. Using the power of the *Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan*, he created the cycle of reincarnation.

And thus, the Moon Reading World became a fully independent, self-sustaining universe.

Now, all that remained was to create life.

“Six Realms of Reincarnation!”

Activating the reincarnation pathway, Leo sent his spiritual energy to the mortal world within the Moon Reading World. There, he saw that the humans and other life forms he had transported to this realm could finally begin to reproduce.

Previously, despite having humans and other creatures in the Moon Reading World, they could only live but not reproduce. The laws of the world were not complete enough to create new souls.

Now, thanks to Leo’s efforts, the Moon Reading World had become a fully functioning realm with laws that allowed for the creation and growth of new life.

After adjusting the time laws within the Moon Reading World to accelerate its flow, new life soon began to be born.

The moment the first new life was born, Leo felt the entire Moon Reading World expand, as if a chemical reaction had been set off. At the same time, he, as its creator, immediately benefited.

The feedback from the Moon Reading World surged back into his physical form, amplifying his power a hundredfold, a thousandfold, and more.

His body and soul were growing stronger at an unimaginable rate.

Moments later, Leo’s spiritual energy returned to his physical form, and a flash of divine light flickered in his eyes as a smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.

“I knew this would lead to an increase in power, but I didn’t expect it to be this much!

“Now, not only could I easily defeat Dormammu’s avatar, but even his true form wouldn’t be out of reach.”

According to the power rankings in the Marvel Universe, Leo had previously only reached the peak of the Skyfather level, barely scratching the threshold of a single-entity universe level.

But now, with the Moon Reading World fully complete, he had not only crossed that threshold but had reached the peak of the single-entity universe level—a qualitative leap that even he hadn’t anticipated.

At this moment, his power had truly surpassed that of Odin and the Ancient One.

Based on his understanding of the Marvel Universe, power rankings roughly followed this order: Earth level, Skyfather level, single-entity universe level, multiverse level, super-universe level, and omnipotent universe level.

Most superheroes, such as Captain America, Iron Man, Black Panther, and Hawkeye, were Earth level.

Figures like the Ancient One, Odin, Hela, Surtur, Captain Marvel, and Ego were at the Skyfather level.

However, the Ancient One and Odin were at the peak of the Skyfather level. If the Ancient One used the power of the Mind Stone and the three Sanctums, or if Odin fought in Asgard with the power of his divine realm, they could temporarily reach the single-entity universe level.

The single-entity universe level is typically defined by the ability to have control over one’s own realm.

Most dimensional entities, such as Dormammu, Mephisto, and Nightmare, fall into this category. However, when these entities leave their respective dimensions or project avatars into Earth’s realm, their power is reduced to the Skyfather level, or at best, they only briefly reach the initial stages of the single-entity universe level, allowing them to be defeated by the Ancient One with the help of the three Sanctums.

Above that is the multiverse level, where beings like Chthon, the Vishanti, and Cyttorak reside, capable of easily destroying a universe.

At the top of this tier are beings like the five primordial cosmic entities: Death, Eternity, Infinity, Oblivion, and Galactus.

Beyond the multiverse level is the super-universe level, which, as far as Leo knew, was only represented by the Living Tribunal, tasked with overseeing all universes within the Marvel multiverse.

At the very pinnacle, the omnipotent universe level, sits the One Above All, the supreme being that transcends everything.

This was Leo’s rough understanding of Marvel’s power hierarchy based on the information he had gathered. It was possible there were exceptions or variations.

For example, Thanos is typically at the Skyfather level but, with all six Infinity Stones, can ascend to the single-entity universe level.

The Celestials in Marvel also vary, with some at the Skyfather level, others at the single-entity universe level, and the most powerful potentially reaching the multiverse level.

One thing Leo was certain of: Dormammu’s avatar, when it invaded Earth, was at the entry level of the single-entity universe. He had confirmed this with the Ancient One.

Previously, his power had also been at the threshold of the single-entity universe level. While he had the means to defeat Dormammu’s avatar, killing it was another matter entirely, dependent on luck.

But now, with his power elevated to the peak of the single-entity universe level, he had full confidence that he could destroy Dormammu’s avatar.

He even believed that if he invaded Dormammu’s Dark Dimension, he might be able to hold his own, especially with the Moon Reading World to back him up.

The creation and perfection of an entire world, along with the development of a corresponding cosmos, had truly exceeded his expectations in terms of power growth.

With his newfound strength, Leo felt entirely confident in completing the main quest, and thus, he began acclimating to his new abilities, waiting for the main quest to begin.

And so, time passed until January 19, 2017.

“Such intense dark energy… Dormammu is here!”

Sensing an overwhelming surge of dark energy centered on Hong Kong, Leo vanished from his secluded residence with a flash of apparition.
