45: Harvest

This time, he did not use the power stone armor against Ancient One. This power was reserved for highly threatening individuals like Thanos and could not be easily exposed.

Ye Feng defeated Ancient One, who was not at full strength, but chose to honor his previous promise.

His agreement stemmed not only from his apprehension towards formidable powerhouses but also from a hidden agenda: the reality stone was also on Earth in this world.

He still had plans for them, and cooperation could prevent Ancient One from interfering with him later.

Ye Feng was only interested in studying the infinity stones, not in possessing them.

"Alright, the time stone is yours for now, but you should know the trouble that will arise if you, who shouldn't exist in this timeline, harbor any improper thoughts. There are still too many unknown beings more powerful than us in this world, and they are all watching this planet! Furthermore, I don't expect you to fight other crises, but please stop Dormammu's invasion!"

As a powerful being who had suppressed dimensional demon gods for thousands of years, Ancient One, though not at her peak, possessed incredibly vast knowledge.

She knew about the Celestial Host, the Fulcrum, and possibly even special existences like the First Firmament Universe.

As for whether she knew about the existence of OAA, Ye Feng was unsure.

Although Ancient One's physical body died in the original work, her soul did not; she vanished but did not truly perish.

She merely chose to retire.

In fact, when Ye Feng performed conceptual suppression and manipulation, he discovered a problem.

Ancient One's power still had hidden depths, but this power seemed difficult to unleash, which indicated that if she truly fought with all her might, he would definitely not be her opponent.

She simply chose to compromise.

"No problem, I will conduct my research at Kamar-Taj. Just call me if you have any issues!"

For the current Ancient One, without the time stone, she would lose a trump card against Dormammu.

She was unwilling to continue and handed this difficult task to Ye Feng.

For Ye Feng, Dormammu's appearance perfectly fulfilled another one of his wishes: to study the dimensional domains of various gods and demons.

This would play an important role in strengthening his Dark Plane and enhancing its security.

Ye Feng certainly didn't want to end up like Morgana encountering Keisha, having all his data read the moment they met.

Ancient One took a deep look at Ye Feng, then opened a spacetime gate and returned to Kamar-Taj.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng turned his attention to the battlefield below.

The battle below finally ended after Iron Man flew into the spacetime tunnel with a nuclear bomb.

Just then, spatial channels formed by folded space appeared next to the space stone and the Mind Scepter.

The two cosmic treasures were sent by Ye Feng's telekinesis into these channels, transporting them to the blood wolf.

Ye Feng also ignored the Avengers.

They had secrets, but essentially they were at the level of the Avengers in the Super God World. Ye Feng had already completed his data collection on them, so there was no longer any need to interact with them.

By this point, Ye Feng had collected a total of four infinity stones: the time stone, the space stone, the power stone, and the mind stone.

He was only missing the reality stone and the soul stone to achieve a grand slam in infinity stone collection.

After completing this step, Ye Feng no longer paid attention to the commotion below.

He returned to the blood wolf to see what rewards the system would give him this time.

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully plundering the time stone, space stone, and mind stone!"

"Host has achieved great success and is specially rewarded with one Advanced Celestial Computer Upgrade Card, one 100% Third Generation Divine Body Correction Card, one set of Junior Dark Energy Solidification Technology, one Advanced Thought Rewriting Technology Upgrade Card, one set of Top-tier Electromagnetism Knowledge and Technology, one Super Three-Second Invincible Defense Card, one Time Stone Essence Observation Card, one Space Stone Essence Observation Card, and one Mind Stone Essence Observation Card!"

This time's rewards were all excellent.

Ye Feng first used the upgrade card to upgrade his dark plane celestial computer, elevating it to the Advanced Celestial Computer level.

A computing body of this level, in size alone, was already comparable to a super planet the size of Jupiter!

Such a massive celestial computing body, by its very existence, occupied an enormous mass.

Within such a colossal entity, countless tiny units contained gravity cancellation devices.

Such cancellation devices could counteract the terrifying gravitational pull generated by the immense mass, preventing its overall collapse and protecting its internal structure.

And the application of this technology was just one of the difficulties in manufacturing a celestial computer.

Such a massive celestial computer involved extremely large computational modules, storage modules, energy conduction modules, energy storage modules, and other minute units.

Its smallest computing unit had already reached the molecular level.

That is, a single molecule on it was a tiny, super basic chip capable of independent computation.

The computing units were so small, yet its volume was so immense; the increase in its computing power was unimaginable.

In reality, an Advanced Celestial Computer could already simulate data for the entire universe, and even deduce the short-term development and changes of the entire universe through computation.

The computations it performed involved extremely large numbers, a super computing method that could also simulate a virtual universe.

The upgraded Advanced dark plane celestial computer propelled Ye Feng's strength to a new level.

After completing the celestial computer upgrade, Ye Feng stored the system rewards—the Advanced Thought Rewriting Technology, Top-tier Electromagnetism Knowledge and Technology, and Junior Dark Energy Solidification Technology—into his dark plane computer.

Each of these three technologies possessed significant application value.

For Ye Feng, the dark energy Solidification Technology was the most valuable.

Even the Junior Dark Energy Solidification Technology represented a qualitative breakthrough in energy utilization for him.

After energy is materialized and then solidified, the stored energy level will be thousands or even tens of thousands of times greater than his current strongest energy storage method.

Ye Feng's current energy storage method was the heart of energy.

This was also an extremely advanced energy storage method.

However, the creation of the heart of energy was extremely difficult, requiring very high-grade materials and resources, making it not a cost-effective energy utilization method.

In contrast, converting other energies into dark energy, and then converting dark energy into solid energy, offered a storage and utilization method that was more efficient, convenient, and capable of storing much greater energy than even Antimatter energy.

After learning this technology, Ye Feng immediately tried it out.

He discovered that this special solid, after dark energy solidification, was actually a black, extremely pure polyhedral crystal.

So Ye Feng simply called it Dark Energy Crystal.

With this technology, Ye Feng could also store large quantities of Dark Energy Crystals in his private space.

At the same time, his blood wolf could also store large quantities of Dark Energy Crystals.

The energy of these crystals was extremely stable and could only be channeled out using special techniques.

Moreover, its energy release process was very smooth, making it very suitable for weapons like the blood wolf.

Of course, Ye Feng would also research its unstable energy release method.

Once this unstable, high-speed energy release method was developed, the instantaneous release of its immense energy could make it a super weapon comparable to an antimatter bomb.

However, antimatter bombs require a massive confining shell for absolute physical vacuum isolation, whereas Dark Energy Crystals do not.

This means that Dark Energy Crystals have a wider range of applications and are more efficient; even if made into a bomb, their storage safety is much higher than that of antimatter bombs.

The final three rewards were all auxiliary items to help Ye Feng peer into the essential mysteries of the time stone, space stone, and mind stone.

Like the previous Power Stone Essence Observation Card, they would be of great use to Ye Feng in exploring the mysteries of the infinity stones.

After claiming all the rewards, Ye Feng decided to stop causing trouble.

He was going to Kamar-Taj to conduct research.

As for why he chose that place, it was, of course, because of its rich collection of books and Ancient One, who had a profound understanding of magical power.

Magic and technology in the Marvel Universe were, to some extent, interconnected.

Ancient One's vast knowledge would also assist him in researching these things, and he believed Ancient One would not refuse his invitation.

Only a fool would not utilize such an excellent research assistant.
