"How many years has it been? At last, I see a life form from the original universe again."

The colossal phantom approached Lyon, its eyes, as large as buildings, filled with emotion.

"How long has it been since I was buried in the original star? Probably close to ten trillion eras now..."

The deep sigh of the phantom left Lyon momentarily stunned.

"You are a life form from the previous reincarnation era?" Lyon wondered aloud, considering that ten trillion eras would nearly span an entire cycle.

"Life form? No, I am merely an intelligent program."

The phantom explained, "During the later period of the last reincarnation era, the supreme beast god of time, 'Zhou,' fell, leaving behind me and this fortress."

"After the original universe entered its current cycle, the fortress was buried within the original star and has only now resurfaced."

"Kid, are you the one chosen by the great original will, the one whose potential passed the test and is qualified to receive the inheritance left behind by 'Zhou'?"

"I must warn you, this test comes with the risk of death."

Lyon nodded resolutely, "Regardless of the outcome, I want to give it a try!"

"Hmm... very well. As a special life form with a hundredfold genetic base, you could, in a way, be considered of the same kind as 'Zhou.' You qualify to attempt it," the phantom said, exhaling.

"But your foundation seems rather poor. Let me see you throw a punch."

"Understood!" Lyon took his stance, utilizing his flawed combat technique, which he had refined to a fifteenfold increase in power, and threw a punch.

The phantom's brow immediately furrowed.

Its voice thundered, "What kind of nonsense is this? Have you not encountered a formal inheritance before?"

"Not yet. I've been relying entirely on self-exploration," Lyon admitted.

"Then you're a blank slate? That works. I'll give you thirty days to thoroughly master this secret technique and achieve a hundredfold correct power output."

A seemingly illusory secret manual materialized before Lyon and fell to the ground.

"If you cannot master it within thirty days, there is no need to proceed with the rest of the inheritance."

The massive phantom thunderously moved its pillar-like legs, walked off into the distance, and lay down, closing its eyes.

Lyon picked up the secret manual, filled with determination. "Time waits for no one. A hundredfold force must be mastered quickly!"

One day later.

Lyon woke the phantom.

"What? You've mastered the hundredfold force already? So quickly... Throw another punch and let me see."

"Alright!" Lyon stood straight and, without any warning, threw a punch. The force of his strike caused the air to roar.

"This... you've actually mastered it. Not bad, though still far from how I was back in my day... ahem."

The phantom turned its head and coughed lightly.

"Very well, let's begin the test."

"You are someone favored by the great original will, and since 'Zhou' once served the original will, I won't make this too hard for you."

"The test will evaluate three aspects—your ability to comprehend laws, your mental state, and your willpower."

"Comprehension of laws is the foundation of strength, while mental state and willpower are essential for becoming a true powerhouse."

"Which one do you want to tackle first?"

"Mental state," Lyon replied. His mental state had just recently broken through, making it the perfect time to challenge and consolidate it.

"Very well, let's begin."

As the phantom finished speaking, a faint hazy light enveloped Lyon.

He stood calmly, waiting.

As time passed, it felt as if he was undergoing one trial after another.

Yet, after half an hour, the phantom suddenly spoke, "You've failed. You did not pass. Leave here now!"

Lyon froze, not even having time to speak before a beam of white light swept him away, sending him flying out of the fortress.

The fortress was quickly swallowed by a black hole.

Clearly, the great original will would not grant him another chance.

Dejected, Lyon returned to Earth. Forced to settle for second-best, he sought out the Silent Star spaceship and became its disciple, studying its secret techniques.

Three months later.

Lyon left Hong and Radium God with an abundance of manuals and knowledge.

Equipped with domain-lord peak-level strength, he returned to the Marvel universe.

First, he bid farewell to the Ancient One.

Then he returned home, sharing the advanced technology he had acquired from the swollowed sky world with Tony Stark.

Tony, overwhelmed by Lyon's revelations, could only utter a series of incredulous exclamations as Lyon took off once again—this time flying toward the sun.

His goal was clear: to achieve immortality in the shortest time possible.

Lyon dove into the sun, immersing himself in its fiery depths for a full year.

Time should have flowed peacefully from that point forward.

However, during one of Tony's experiments researching cosmic energy, fluctuations inadvertently spread beyond the boundaries of their universe.

These disturbances tore open a spatial rift, creating a gateway into their world.

From this portal emerged a towering Eternal clad in radiant battle armor, his body glowing a deep purple. On his hand gleamed the Infinity Gauntlet, forged from Uru metal, adorned with shining gems.

"I am Thanos, here to return you all to the embrace of death. Rejoice, mortals—this is your honor," he declared.

Without hesitation, Thanos prepared to wield the power of the Infinity Stones to wipe out everything in his path.

But Lyon, almost instantly, emerged from the heart of the star to confront him, halting his assault.

However, even as Lyon, now at the peak of domain-lord strength, struck Thanos and sent him flying out of Earth, the Mad Titan retaliated with the might of the Infinity Stones. Using their power to teleport back, Thanos unleashed a devastating blow, shattering Lyon's body.

A rain of blood fell as a small spatial portal discreetly absorbed Lyon's core, preventing it from being destroyed by Thanos.

However, with Lyon gone, there was no one left on Earth capable of stopping Thanos.

Tony Stark was reduced to ashes, Natasha Romanoff was stabbed through the heart, and even the Ancient One was decapitated by Thanos.

Ten days later, after eradicating all life in the universe, Thanos departed from this dimension.

A hundred years later, Lyon's core regenerated a new body within the sun.

It was the Ancient One who, at the critical moment, had used a portal to save his core.

"Thanos!" Lyon roared as he emerged.

The peak energy of a universe lord-level being erupted from his body.

Under the crimson glow of his furious gaze, the entire starry sky seemed to tremble.

"I will kill you!!"

Yet Lyon did not immediately seek vengeance against Thanos. Instead, he dove back into the depths of the sun.

One hundred thousand years passed.

Lyon, his entire being radiating golden brilliance, emerged from the star.

He now carried within him an infinite universe.

With a gesture, he absorbed the sun into this internal cosmos.

This new universe, born from the transformation of his internal world, spanned an astounding one hundred billion light-years.

Lyon had now ascended to the level of an eternal true god.

Every movement he made radiated power capable of collapsing entire universes.

Lyon effortlessly tore through the crystal wall of the universe, casually swatting aside a large bald figure who approached to ask what was happening.

Amid the crystalline walls of countless universes, he locked onto one particular universe. Harnessing his traversal abilities, he crossed into its past.

As expected, when he entered, Thanos was standing atop a pile of dead superheroes on Earth.

Among the corpses were Tony Stark, Captain America, Thor, and other members of the Avengers.

"Thanos!!"

Lyon roared, descending from the sky with a piercing scream.

The winds, rains, and clouds of the entire universe seemed to part for him, and all within sight bowed in submission to his presence.

In a single step, Lyon unleashed a fifteenth-tier secret technique. With minimal effort, he severed Thanos's head.

Amidst the mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, Lyon stood at the highest peak, holding Thanos's dripping head aloft, laughing maniacally.

"Thanos is dead! Dead! Tony, can you see this? I avenged you!!"

His laughter grew louder and louder, reverberating across the entire Earth.

But as he laughed, his expression suddenly turned cold.

"It's not enough. I still need to resurrect Tony!"

Lyon returned to his own universe, retrieved the Time Stone, and leveraged the power of the universe's authority to reverse time.

However, just as he was about to save Tony, an enormous abstract entity appeared to stop him.

"You cannot resurrect him. That moment is an absolute point in time. Without that point, you wouldn't exist as you do now. Resurrecting him will destroy this universe!" declared Eternity.

"Heh, now you emerge all righteous and solemn? Where were you when Thanos arrived?" Lyon sneered.

"Today, Tony will be resurrected—because I said so! Even if you're just an avatar, and even if your true form comes, you won't stop me!"

"A universe without Tony is a universe without purpose!"

With their opposing views irreconcilable, a fierce battle erupted.

Each punch, kick, and strike of the sword radiated the power of supreme laws.

The fight lasted nearly a year, with the shockwaves nearly tearing the universe apart.

In the end, Lyon stood at the edge of the universe, triumphant, holding the slowly dissipating head of Eternity in one hand and the Infinity Gauntlet in the other.

Amid the endless white bones beneath his feet, Lyon used the Time Stone to reverse time, successfully resurrecting Tony Stark.

However, almost the moment Tony was revived, the entire universe began to collapse.

"W-where is this? Wasn't I dead...? Lyon! You're alive! That's amazing!" Tony exclaimed, overjoyed to see Lyon.

But as he looked around in confusion, he asked, "Something feels off—this place seems like it's falling apart?"

"It's fine. Don't worry about it. Just step in here for now. We'll go to another universe," Lyon reassured him.

Lyon pulled Tony into his internal universe and carried him as he traveled to another dimension.

However, Lyon had barely arrived on a new version of Earth, with Tony still inside his internal cosmos, when a group of Celestials appeared outside the planet.

The smallest among them was several hundred meters tall, while the largest stood over hundreds of thousands of meters.

"Outsider, Lyon Stark!" their commanding voices reverberated, reaching the heavens above and the depths of the oceans below.
