Chapter 1128: Dormammu and Guardians of the Galaxy

Swoosh, Swoosh, Swoosh!

As more and more faint black specks materialized from the void, they gradually converged into a mass of black mist from their initial sparse distribution. Furthermore, this mass of black mist began expanding continuously. Soon, this patch of black mist in the cosmos had grown to a size comparable to that of Earth.

Once the black mist had reached such an immense scale, its original near-spherical shape began to transform. The entirety of the black mist seemed to possess a semblance of life, constantly twisting and changing shape in the cosmic expanse.

Finally, at the center of this black mist, a gigantic face emerged amidst the distortions. Due to the colossal volume of the black mist, the face itself had grown larger than the moon.

Inhale, exhale~

Following the appearance of the colossal visage, the eyes, nose, and mouth quickly took form on it. Soon, a twisted set of features manifested on the gigantic face, creating a truly menacing appearance.

Amidst the continuous distortions, the eyes at the center of the massive face blinked with an eerie yellow glow. The immense face, accompanied by its amorphous misty body, rotated within the void, silently surveying its surroundings.

“A familiar aura… this plane… this universe… I have finally returned…” After surveying the cosmic expanse around it, the mouth on the massive face moved, emitting a rumbling-like sound.

Judging by the words spoken by this entity, which emerged from the transformation of this mysterious giant black mist, it wasn’t difficult to discern its identity and origin.

This entity was undoubtedly Dormammu, drawn to this plane of existence and universe by the summoning of Kaecilius. After tearing through the fabric of dimensions, Dormammu had descended into this vibrant universe.

Dormammu, eternally wandering within the dark dimension, subsisted by consuming planets and possessed incalculably formidable power. Countless sorcerers from various planes and universes could draw upon the dark dimension to enhance their strength.

Dormammu was the mightiest of Sorcerers within the dark dimension, demonstrating the sheer extent of his power.

However, despite Dormammu’s overwhelmingly immense power, almost limitless in nature, maintaining this level of power demanded an infinite supply of energy— achieved through the constant consumption of planets.

Each time he devoured a life-bearing planet, Dormammu could sustain his strength for a century. If he were to go “hungry,” he’d have no choice but to fall into a deep slumber to prevent his strength from waning.

This time, if not for the agreement that Kaecilius struck with Dormammu, offering the entire Earth as a reward, Dormammu wouldn’t have made the arduous journey across dimensions. Crossing dimensions, even for a being as potent as Dormammu, wasn’t a simple endeavor and consumed a significant amount of energy.

Just as in the past when other divine beings from alternate dimensions used fragments of themselves to meddle with Harry and his son, Ancient One himself had ventured to another dimension.

However, after Ancient One’s return, no news had been shared, and he secluded himself for several days, indicating a significant expenditure of energy and the need for rest.

Hu~

Having aimlessly wandered within the void for a few laps, Dormammu’s massive visage eventually fixed its gaze upon a direction within the cosmos. There, lay the position of the Nine Realms, where Earth resided.

“Earth… I’ve heard it’s a particularly delectable planet…” The dark-yellow gaze seemed to penetrate countless light-years, directly reaching the Nine Realms as Dormammu spoke emotionlessly to himself.

Subsequently, the gargantuan black mist form of Dormammu drifted in the direction of the Nine Realms. It appeared as if a mass of black liquid were flowing through the cosmic expanse.

In its journey, Dormammu didn’t hesitate to consume lifeless planets that happened to be in its way. After all, since he had already come this far, why not snack on a few treats along the way?

Although the flow of Dormammu’s black mist form didn’t appear to be very swift, it’s important to note that it occurred against the backdrop of the entire cosmic expanse.

In truth, Dormammu’s speed had already surpassed the speed of light, traversing several light-years with each movement. With Dormammu’s current pace, it wouldn’t take long to reach the Nine Realms.

…

*Swish!*

Just as Dormammu squeezed from the dark dimension into the universe where Earth resided and swiftly floated toward the Nine Realms, in another direction of the cosmic expanse, a sleek spaceship adorned in silver and red paint was hurtling toward the Nine Realms.

Within the stylish spaceship, a clothed raccoon was seated in the pilot’s seat in the cockpit, steering the ship with a relaxed expression. This raccoon wasn’t a creature that had escaped from a zoo; it was none other than Rocket, a member of the Guardians of the Galaxy. And naturally, the sleek spaceship was Star-Lord Quill’s Spacecraft.

*Click.*

While Rocket was flying solo in the cockpit, the valve leading to the lower living quarters at the rear of the cockpit opened. Soon after, Star-Lord emerged from below. After a few months, Star-Lord’s appearance hadn’t changed much; he had just gained a little weight.

“Hey, Rocket, where are we now? How much longer until we reach Earth?” Star-Lord walked out of the living quarters and approached Rocket, holding a bottle of drink that looked like beer.

*Beep Beep.* *Swish!*

Upon hearing Star-Lord’s question, Rocket extended his small paw. He rapidly tapped a few times on the control panel in front of them, and a star map appeared before their eyes. At the top of the star map was a location emitting a golden glow, containing nine dots of light— this naturally represented the Nine Realms where Earth was located.

The position of Star-Lord and Rocket was marked at the center of the star map, not too far away on the map.

“At our current speed, we’ll arrive in about half a month. However, if we’re lucky enough to find a Jump Point, we could get there within three days.” Rocket pointed to a route on the star map with his furry finger.

“Jump Points aren’t that easy to find, you know? Half a month isn’t too slow anyway. Besides, we just finished a big job, so it’s time for a break.” After hearing Rocket’s response, Star-Lord took a sip of his “beer.”

“What kind of break? You’re clearly avoiding Yondu and the other Ravagers. I feel I am becoming unlucky just by following you!” Rocket retorted without holding back upon hearing Star-Lord’s words.

“Hehe! As long as they don’t know where we’re headed, it’s a vacation, right? Who would guess we’d come this way? This region of space is notorious for being impoverished. If it weren’t for meeting that interesting guy Jackson last time, I wouldn’t have chosen to come here either.” Rocket’s words exposed Star-Lord’s pretense, making him feel somewhat embarrassed.

“You, uh… missing home too?”

Star-Lord: “…”
