After the previous battle in Hell, he discovered this hidden danger.
The anchor point that links the dimensional space can be easily interfered with by external forces. If faced with an opponent who specializes in mental power, psychic abilities, or who targets this specific weakness, they can disrupt him, preventing him from drawing the immense magic power from the dimensional space.
This would completely block his most powerful trump card.
Bi Xiao needed to relocate his self-created dimensional world elsewhere.
Remote support, which could be unlocked using his magic as a key, would be unstoppable unless someone with greater power killed him instantly. Otherwise, there would be no way to prevent him from activating MAX mode.
The incident with Bella also reminded him of his desire to build a Golden City.
The "Golden City" is a habitable city that could also become a highly destructive weapon.
It would serve as an alternative Sorcerer tower created by Sorcerers.
Sorcerer towers help Sorcerers improve their efficiency in learning magic, enhance their magical power, and can serve as a magical turret to attack enemies by transmitting energy.
The Golden City could be considered a large-scale weapon. If Odin's artifact is the Eternal Spear Gungnir and the Destroyer Armor, then Bi Xiao's weapon could be the Golden City.
If he had one or even multiple Golden Cities, Bi Xiao could counterattack when faced with multiple opponents of the same level. Extending this idea further, within the Golden City, he could construct a Zodiac Palace, where each palace is interconnected, forming a multi-layered magical weapon to attack enemies.
The Zodiac Palace could automatically link up and initiate a combined attack.
He could also grant Bella subordinate permissions, allowing her to open the Golden City and receive remote support or enter the Golden City for safety, even in his absence.
Bi Xiao's strategy was to eliminate any potential threats against him.
If he successfully constructed multiple Golden Cities, he could directly invade Hell and officially start a new mission, without fear of being surrounded by multiple demon lords.
Not just Hell, Heaven was also a viable target.
This greatly expanded his list of potential targets.
"The beginning from zero to one is the most difficult. Building the first Golden City requires enormous resources, magical knowledge, and time."
Sitting on the sofa in the RV, Bi Xiao estimated with a frown.
In his vision, the Golden City existed between reality and illusion. It could become real or shift to illusion, appearing tangible but unattainable, sounding fantastical and indeed being so.
However, Bi Xiao did not find it difficult because it involved vast magical knowledge that he possessed. The real challenge was the resources and materials required for construction, and the massive engineering effort needed to form a cohesive whole from singular units.
Additionally, there were the attack systems, defense systems, and concealment systems, which required extensive time to develop.
Energy, originally the biggest problem, turned out to be the least challenging. The energy core to support the operation of the Golden City could be sustained by Bi Xiao's dimensional space at the current stage.
The dimensional space is the core magic behind Bi Xiao's MAX mode and other techniques.
It could securely store and compress Bi Xiao's magic without loss, with dense magic circuits inside that could regenerate stored magic through replication.
This meant Bi Xiao did not need to worry about replenishing the magic in his dimensional space after massive consumption.
This characteristic was akin to the Dark Dimension of Dormammu or the Magic Dimension of Vishanti, both containing the knowledge to create everything, following the iron laws of the universe.
Once a dimensional space was constructed, it could support the operation of a Golden City. Building a second one would be much easier, allowing for further expansion.
One unit could form a collective, creating a whole.
This was the essence of infinite recursion.
One person could become an army. It would be impossible for anyone to rely on numbers to besiege Bi Xiao in the future.
Bi Xiao knocked on the table while sitting on the sofa, his mind racing. He quickly simulated the construction of the Golden City in his mental world, identifying and perfecting every necessary detail and loophole until dawn.
After completing the simulation, Bi Xiao found himself floating before a vast and magnificent city in his mental world.
The city floated quietly in the sky, forming a gigantic whole in his perspective, presented as a 3D image.
Within the enormous city, every brick, every area, wall, and building formed an integrated whole.
The city was also enveloped by multiple magical barriers, creating an almost perfect system.
"The details of the construction are complete, but actualizing it requires substantial material support."
Bi Xiao muttered, thinking it over and concluding that he needed to resort to looting and plundering.
Currently, he considered Hell a prime source of abundant resources necessary for constructing the Golden City. There were also significant resources among various forces in the universe. Asgard was not an option for now due to Odin being a ticking time bomb, and Asgard itself housed the Valhalla.
Valhalla contained a large number of past Asgardian kings, warriors, and armies. If he dealt with Odin, the madmen in Valhalla would surely emerge when Asgard fell.
This would not be worth the risk.
It was better to establish good relations, learn the runes, Uru metal, and craftsmanship of the dwarves through peaceful means.
After all, Thor would eventually squander everything, so it would be better to take it all for himself before then.
But he needed to wait two years to meet Odin. In the meantime, he could plunder other places; Kamar-Taj had been almost drained, leaving little to exploit. Now, the best options for him were Hell and regions beyond the Milky Way and the Solar System.
Alternatively, he could even loot the Kree Empire.
