He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 168 The Melee on the Rainbow Bridge (Second Update)

"God? You cowardly coward hiding in the back dares to call yourself a god? Come and fight me one-on-one if you dare!"

Seeing the Destroyer charging towards him, Li Chuan beckoned to Loki, who was hiding behind it, his tone full of provocation.

He wanted to provoke Loki into attacking him, so that he could deal with the Destroyer by eliminating Loki.

However, Loki was clearly not easily fooled. Unlike Thor, he never fought personally and avoided direct confrontations. Instead, he preferred to use cunning and sneak attacks.

"Does a mere mortal deserve my personal attention?"

Loki sneered and stood motionless.

He wouldn't fall for Li Chuan's tricks and risk taking action himself, as Li Chuan was clearly a powerful and extraordinary human.

Seeing that Loki wasn't falling for the trick, and with the Destroyer almost upon him, Li Chuan immediately roared:

"Second Form Open! Eight Gates Open! Gate of Rest Open! Gate of Life Open! Gate of Injury Open!"

His body rapidly expanded to over two meters tall, and blue chakra energy flowed across his surface.

His strong physical condition and understanding of the human body's meridians and acupoints made learning the Eight Gates Formation exceptionally easy for him, and he can now open up to the fourth gate.

"Xingyi - Cannon Fist!"

With a flash, Li Chuan's body seemed to transform into a cannon, rushing towards the Destroyer at an extremely fast speed and punching it between its legs.

A powerful force erupted, sending the nine-meter-tall Destroyer flying seven or eight meters backward before landing in front of Loki once again.

"Such immense power!"

Loki, who was controlling the Destroyer, immediately narrowed his eyes. He had actually managed to send the Destroyer flying with a single punch in a head-on confrontation. The opponent was just a mere mortal, yet he possessed such terrifying power.

Fortunately, the Destroyer is not human and does not feel pain. Moreover, the Uru metal on its body is hard enough. Although it was knocked back, it was not damaged at all.

It stood up again, the mask on its head opened, and a powerful flame shot straight towards Li Chuan.

"You think you're the only one who can do that?"

Li Chuan quickly formed hand seals:

"Water Escape: Water Curtain"

A thick jet of water, like a cannon, gushed from his mouth and collided with the flames spewed from the Destroyer's mouth.

The flames spewed from the Destroyer's mouth were clearly no ordinary flames, and due to the abundant energy within its body, the intensity of the flames continued to increase, quickly stirring up a large cloud of water vapor.

"The Destroyer is an indestructible ultimate weapon; its flames can destroy everything. You should give up resisting!"

Although the large amount of water vapor blurred the figures of the Destroyer and Li Chuan, Loki could still vaguely see the red flames overwhelmingly pressing forward, estimating that it wouldn't be long before they killed that powerful mortal.

Meanwhile, because Thor didn't have Mjolnir and hadn't regained his divine power, the Warriors Three and Sif, whom he led, were being easily defeated by Laufey and the other Frost Giants.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Laufey was easily ambushed and killed by Loki, his own son, in the original storyline, into thinking that he was weak.

In fact, Laufey in his full form blinded one of Odin's eyes during their battle and froze the entire Jotunheim, demonstrating his immense power.

The reason why Loki killed him so easily is that he lost the source of his power, the Ancient Winter Coffin, which greatly reduced his strength, just like how Surtur, the god of fire, lost the Eternal Flame and was easily defeated by Thor.

Secondly, his attention was entirely focused on Odin at the time, and he did not expect Loki to launch a sneak attack, so he was caught off guard and took the full force of the Spear of Eternity's blow.

It's important to know that the Spear of Eternity is Odin's weapon, containing Odin's divine power. The attack Loki unleashed wasn't his own attack, but rather an attack from the Spear of Eternity.

Laufey is now fighting with all his might, and his combined strength, speed, and occasional bursts of frost power make him quite formidable.

Fortunately, Heimdall, who was pretending to be unconscious inside the teleportation hall, also noticed the situation outside and came to help with his greatsword, barely managing to block Laufey and the other frost giants' attacks.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the water column vanished completely, and the Destroyer's flames instantly pierced through the figure in the steam, slamming it onto the Rainbow Bridge.

"This is divine punishment, the consequence of opposing me, the King of Asgard."

Loki laughed heartily upon seeing this.

"Weapon to eliminate you!"

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded behind him, and his body trembled. The Eternal Spear in his hand flew out of his control and landed on the ground.

It turns out that just as the steam rose, Li Chuan used a shadow clone to replace his main body, and then his main body used a disillusionment spell to sneak in next to Loki.

His plan was to deal with Loki, the controller, so how could he possibly go head-to-head with the indestructible and troublesome Destroyer?

If he hadn't been wary of Odin possibly watching the situation closely, he might have used a killing spell instead of a disarming spell to finish off his opponent.

Anyway, Loki is a menace if he's kept around; he always likes to cause trouble.

He did consider using a Stunning Curse or a Body Binding Curse, but Loki was also a sorcerer, skilled in illusions, and his mental strength was definitely not low, so the Stunning Curse might not be effective.

As a descendant of the Frost Giants, even though he was a deformed child, his physical strength was several times greater than that of humans, and even a full-body binding spell probably couldn't hold him back.

So they used the disarming spell to disarm Loki of his powerful spear of eternity.

Loki was able to open the vault and release the Destroyer by using the Spear of Eternity. Perhaps by taking away the Spear of Eternity, he also took away Loki's control over the Destroyer.

"How is that possible!"

When Loki saw Li Chuan appear behind him, his pupils shrank immediately, and he conjured two daggers and rushed over.

Li Chuan frowned when he saw Loki charging towards him. It wasn't that he was afraid of Loki's close combat, but he noticed that even after he took the Spear of Eternity from Loki's hand, the Destroyer still didn't stop moving.

Instead, it turned its body around, its front becoming its back, and charged at him again.

"It seems Loki has pre-programmed the attack; it needs to be manually deactivated to stop the attack."

After a brief moment's thought, Li Chuan disregarded the two daggers Loki was pointing at his waist, waved his wand, and chanted an incantation:

"Flying around!"

Instantly, the Eternal Spear, which had been knocked far away, flew up and landed in his hand.

Loki's two daggers passed right through Li Chuan's body without causing him the slightest harm.

"Damn it!"

Loki appeared less than a meter from the Spear of Eternity, and angrily slammed his fist into the Rainbow Bridge.

The instant the Spear of Eternity was knocked away, he used illusion magic to create a fake body that pretended to attack Li Chuan, attracting Li Chuan's attention, while his real body went invisible to retrieve the Spear of Eternity.

Unexpectedly, Li Chuan saw through his illusion.
