Arishem's arm showed obvious damage, and massive amounts of energy leaked from the wound, immediately absorbed by the newborn Celestial controlled by Alex.
Now, the newborn Celestial, under Alex's control, acted like an amplifier, boosting Alex's abilities. With the massive energy absorption magnified, the 'blood' flowing from Arishem's wounds was absorbed by the newborn Celestial, turning into fuel to enhance its strength!
The two giants fought madly, with endless energy spilling into the universe, destroying everything around them!
The surrounding space was folded by Arishem, forming blades that slashed toward Alex. However, with limitless technique at his disposal, Alex could also manipulate space. He teleported next to Arishem and thrust an illusionary dagger, thousands of kilometers long, toward Arishem's back.
But with Arishem's heightened senses, he naturally wouldn't fall victim to Alex's sneak attack. He controlled energy to strengthen his body and punched with a fist comparable to a small planet, hitting Alex directly.
Yet, the terrifying force that bloomed on the surface of the newborn Celestial still couldn't hurt him in the slightest.
Alex's vector manipulation controlled all vectors, forming a vector axis in front of him, concentrating all the force and striking back at Arishem!
The terrifying vectors ignored Arishem's defenses, piercing directly through his chest, creating mountain-sized wounds. Scorching energy flowed from the wounds, distorting the surrounding space.
Arishem was injured!
The great Celestial had been wounded by a mortal!
Although his wounds healed rapidly, Arishem still felt endless anger. This was blasphemy, an insult!
As the lofty judge, the leader of the great Celestials, when had he ever been treated like this?
"You deserve to die!" Arishem declared. This time, it was no longer an impartial judgment but a personal grudge, with his tone barely hiding his fury!
He no longer treated Alex as beneath him but saw him as an equal, someone he could no longer ignore!
A terrifying energy wave burst from the Judge Arishem, an energy capable of instantly destroying the entire solar system and beyond.
Time and space around him were manipulated by Arishem, immediately enveloping Alex's power. Under the force of this immense energy, the newborn Celestial's body rapidly disintegrated!
Moreover, a massive energy beam formed before Arishem, containing energy comparable to a star, surging toward Alex!
Earlier, Arishem had looked down on Alex from a position of superiority, judging him without using his full power. But now, after being wounded, he could no longer maintain his calm and unleashed a portion of his strength to attack Alex!
Faced with such a terrifying energy beam, Alex controlled the newborn Celestial, tearing open the space before him. A portal larger than a planet appeared, and Arishem's energy attack passed through it, striking him from behind!
However, without the effect of vector manipulation, Arishem's armor, with its incredible defense, showed its power. The energy, enough to destroy several solar systems, couldn't harm Arishem in the slightest.
Seeing the newborn Celestial's body gradually disintegrate, Arishem angrily said to Alex:
"I will seal you in the abyss of the universe, continuously burning your soul, making you spend endless years in pain and torment! This is the price for defying a Celestial!"
"That sounds terrifying. I really don't want that though..." Alex muttered to himself.
"You have no choice!" Arishem responded. Under his immense energy, the newborn Celestial's body quickly collapsed, and even with the aid of three Infinity Stones, Alex still wasn't a match for Arishem!
Without the newborn Celestial's help, and without the boost from the three Infinity Stones and various powerful abilities, Alex could never have hurt Arishem, and he knew that well.
The previous battle was merely to buy time—for this moment!
As the newborn Celestial's body was about to be completely disintegrated, Alex grinned at Arishem:
"Oh great Judge, I'm leaving first. The next time we meet, it won't be this small skirmish—I will be slaying gods!
Before I go, I'll leave you a gift. I hope you like it!"
Arishem felt a sense of foreboding. "Don't you dare escape!"
But it was already too late. Far more powerful energy than before began to erupt from the newborn Celestial's body. The three Infinity Stones flashed brilliantly!
Within the newborn Celestial's head, Alex opened a portal, taking a step through and passing across layers of multiverses, entering a special universe!
Then, with another step, he completely vanished from the Marvel multiverse, entering another equally magnificent multiverse.
Arishem had completely lost track of Alex's presence. After countless ages, he finally understood what it felt like to be truly furious.
But before he could rage for long, the immense energy stored inside the newborn Celestial's body erupted!
It was a massive purple imaginary mass, created with the power of the three Infinity Stones, amplified by the newborn Celestial's abilities and enhanced by various other skills. Alex had sealed a planet-sized imaginary mass inside the newborn Celestial, which exploded as soon as he left!
The power, enough to tear through space, annihilated the surrounding void and even opened a portal to another parallel universe.
The terrifying shockwaves spread rapidly, about to strike the great Celestial.
Arishem tried to use space jumps to escape the devastating attack, but the surrounding space had already been disrupted. He couldn't escape!
In the next moment!
The purple energy struck Arishem completely, and his armor, harder than adamantium by tens or even hundreds of times, shattered, revealing the energy entity inside!
"Mortal!!!"
Arishem's cry of rage, carried by the energy, spread across the entire universe, heard by almost all civilizations.
The Skrull Empire, the Kree Empire, the Shi'ar Empire, and many other cosmic civilizations heard the Celestial's roar from the distant void, plunging their entire civilizations into chaos.
Who in the world could have caused such fury in the great Celestial?
They all remembered the name "Alex" and immediately began investigating, trying to discover the origin of this name.
The Kree Empire was the first to learn what the name "Alex" represented.
Due to Captain Marvel, they already had connections with Earth, and their leader, the Supreme Intelligence, was a supercomputer capable of easily searching most information in the universe.
Naturally, Alex, who had recently made a name for himself on Earth, was quickly identified by the Supreme Intelligence.
"What? Just an Earthling? How is that possible?"
"Even if his abilities seem slightly remarkable, there's no way he could have angered a Celestial to such an extent!"
"Has his power increased a thousandfold during this time? Is he now capable of threatening a Celestial, and that's why they're focused on him?"
"What could this Earthling, Alex, have done to provoke such wrath from a Celestial?"
They couldn't have known that Alex had taken control of a newborn Celestial's body. They would never believe that an Earthling had attacked a Celestial, let alone gravely injured one!
At the original coordinates of Earth, several massive figures appeared from the void, their bodies towering as they looked at the Judge Arishem, whose armor had already been restored. The infinite energy around them resonated with their emotions, shaking the surrounding void.
Even though Arishem's appearance hadn't changed much, they didn't rely on appearances to perceive things but on the essence of energy.
In their perception, Arishem's energy had clearly diminished, even if only slightly, but it was undeniable that he had been injured!
What had happened? Why was their leader, the great Judge, injured?
Could the cosmic entities have attacked?
Or was it another wielder of a major Phoenix Force fragment?
They didn't even consider Odin. Even in his peak state, clad in the Destroyer Armor, Odin couldn't harm them and could be easily defeated.
The gap between Skyfather-level beings and universe-class entities was like that between ants and humans.
Arishem spoke to the other Celestials:
"An anomaly has appeared on Earth. A unique being with no multiversal counterparts controlled a newborn Celestial that was emerging from Earth and, with the help of three Infinity Stones, attacked me.
I was careless and got wounded by a mass formed from the interaction of repulsive and gravitational forces, an imaginary mass..."
"An imaginary mass? That's the embryonic form of matter creation. Could it be that this human can create matter?" asked one of the Celestials.
Arishem replied: "He can't create matter yet, but this human has immense potential. He might even become the next Scarlet Witch or Franklin Richards!"
The other Celestials fell silent. They knew that for their Judge to say such a thing, he was certain of it.
But what kind of people were the Scarlet Witch and Franklin Richards?
The Scarlet Witch, one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse, could rewrite reality on a massive scale, even more powerful than the Celestials themselves.
And Franklin Richards, who was born with the ability to create pocket universes, was so powerful that even the Celestials weren't his match.
For the Judge to declare that a human named Alex could one day reach Franklin Richards' level shocked even the Celestials!
Arishem concluded:
"He's an unstable element, highly likely to threaten the balance of the multiverse and the order we've painstakingly established!
Find him. Kill him!"
Then, all the Celestials disappeared, their destinations unknown.
…
Ancient One and Odin were in Asgard, observing the activity at the original location of Earth, until all the Celestials had disappeared, and they finally relaxed.
With Odin's help, Ancient One removed the solar system from the mirror dimension and returned it to its original position.
The two powerful god-level beings then fell into silence.
"What the hel just happened..." Odin muttered
Everything that had just happened left them in shock. Even they had never witnessed something so absurd!
Alex had actually injured a Celestial and escaped completely unscathed!
It was unbelievable!
