Infinite: Starting from Infiltrating Other Spaces

Thanos stood still, looking at the battlefield before him, which had become like hell, with millions of participants scattered across the plain.

They were engaged in the most primitive and brutal battle.

He took a few steps forward, and the Power Stone on his left Infinity Gauntlet suddenly emitted a hazy purple light. He roared and slammed it forward.

An unusually conspicuous purple light wave descended from the sky, instantly spreading across the entire battlefield, causing countless pieces of blood and limbs to explode.

In an instant, the entire battlefield seemed to be cleared away, and even the superheroes who were beyond human capabilities were severely injured by this punch.

"I find it strange... I was doing this for the balance of the universe, for its long-term survival, and for all living beings."

"You only need to hand over the jewels, and through a fair selection process, sacrifice half your lives, and you'll be able to live comfortably..."

Thanos walked slowly across the empty battlefield, his voice not loud but strangely reaching everyone's ears.

"But why do you keep paying with the lives of innocent people? They had the chance to live."

Blood was gushing from Captain America's mouth and nose. He struggled to help Stark up and said through gritted teeth, "Life and death should be decided by ourselves."

He tightened the strap on his shield, panting, and continued, "Instead of... not letting an alien monster decide our fate!"

The three little ones watching from the sidelines were stunned.

Awoo stuffed the snack in his hand into his mouth:

"Wow, Thanos seems kind of strong."

"Meow?" Hei Tan asked in confusion.

The Fire-Separating Pill emitted a strange fluctuation: "Your Highness once said that this Thanos should be at his peak, so it shouldn't be surprising that he has such strength, right?"

"Peak is peak..."

Aowu scratched his chin: "The main thing is that this peak is a bit beyond my imagination. I saw that even the peak Thanos in Avengers: Endgame wasn't this strong."

"That's because with Thanos's body, the three Infinity Stones represent the moment when he achieves a perfect balance between the power of the stones and his physical strength."

Adding one more or subtracting one will make a difference.

Li Xia's voice rang out beside them. The three little ones turned around in surprise:

"Boss!"

Li Xia and Gu Yi had appeared beside them at some point, standing with their hands behind their backs watching the horrific scene unfold.

Thanos actually held back.

His spaceship, hovering outside the atmosphere, could wipe out more than 90% of life on Earth with just one main gun blast, but he still chose to descend, probably hoping to persuade Earth to hand over the remaining gems.

In a sense, Thanos wasn't really acting out of personal desire, but rather for his sinister theory of cosmic balance.

But he overlooked the crucial emotional void and disconnect that those who disappeared randomly created for the remaining people.

Human beings do not merely exist for survival, but for something higher.

"Boss, do you think Thor with the axe could beat Thanos?"

Suddenly, a thought struck me: Thor is the only member of the entire Avengers who hasn't arrived yet.

He is still forging his own axe in Nidvia.

"Sol?"

Li Xia shook his head: "I can't beat them."

In the original storyline, he was able to severely injure Thanos with a single axe blow, not only because of the sneak attack, but also because Thanos had just collected all six Infinity Stones.

At this critical moment, the body was under immense strain and utterly powerless to unleash the gem's true power to retaliate; it could only fire a beam of light.

"By the way, Ancient One, if Thor comes, remember to stop him for me and have him watch from the sidelines so he doesn't interfere with my battle."

Li Xia's body floated forward, leaving behind a single sentence.

"it is good."

Gu Yi conjured a stool from somewhere and sat down next to the three little ones.

"Could I share some of your snacks and drinks?"

...............

"It seems you are still unwilling to surrender, even at the cost of everyone's lives..."

"Pathetic ants!"

Thanos finally lost all patience. He stood up, ready to give everyone the final end.

But just then, as if sensing something, he looked up at the sky.

The others, drawn by his actions, also looked up.

Li Xia floated down from mid-air, the howling wind blowing his clothes and the hair on his forehead, and he exuded a unique aura.

It's like there's a deep sense of alienation from this world.

But when he appeared, a light shone in the eyes of all the Avengers once again, as if they had seen hope.

"summer...."

Stark, his body bruised and battered, walked over, his face showing regret and pain.

"I've made preparations, I'm trying my best to protect this place..."

“You’ve done a great job, Tony.”

Li Xia patted him on the shoulder and said to Captain America, who was in slightly better condition:

"Let's retreat and rest for a bit; it'll be over soon."

Steve breathed a sigh of relief and nodded:

"It's up to you now."

Thanos neither interrupted their conversation nor attacked. He simply watched, his gaze fixed on the gem on Li Xia's wrist.

As the wounded Avengers staggered backward, he slowly said:

"It seems... you are their last resort, and the reason they refuse to surrender?"

"That's one way to put it."

Li Xia didn't even have the interest to use his detection skills to scan Thanos's panel.

This world posed no challenge to him; he simply swept through it all upon arriving.

So what if Thanos is a top-tier fifth-order being?

Even among the top performers, there are differences, just like...

"So your reliance is the Infinity Stone in your possession?"

Thanos raised his hand, looking at the three Infinity Stones:

"There is no inherent superiority or inferiority among gemstones, but rather among the people who use them..."

He clenched his fist tightly, and a pale purple light emanated from it, as if a huge storm had been unleashed.

When the light wave reached Li Xia, it strangely vanished without a trace.

"I will tell you how fragile and ridiculous your self-righteous reliance is!"

Thanos raised his double-headed sword and charged forward with seemingly slow but actually fast steps.

You're right.

Li Xia raised his hand, and a long spear gleaming with a cold light slowly appeared.

"There is no inherent superiority or inferiority among gemstones, but... there is a difference in the people who use them!"

Nightfall drew a large, exaggerated arc in front of him, moving upwards to meet Thanos's slashing blade.

"clang----!"

The massive shockwave from the weapon impact spread outwards in all directions, accompanied by a visible shockwave.

Those who were intently watching the battle ahead covered their ears in pain, but the sound seemed to have an extremely strong penetrating power.

Even though it has subsided, a piercing ringing still lingers in my ears.

The broken blade danced in the air, its extremely sharp edge easily piercing the rock.

Thanos looked at the broken sword in his hand, then at the spear in Li Xia's hand.

Thanos: ?

If I'm really going to push through like this, I'd better hurry up and start writing about native worlds; that would be more interesting.

Chapter 17 Thanos: I got up, only to be killed in one hit.

The sharp, lingering sound that seemed to echo in everyone's ears on the battlefield finally disappeared.

They lowered their hands, watching Thanos's broken sword and his disheveled retreat, only able to use the Infinity Stones to create a barrier.

My mouth gradually opened, and my mind went completely blank.

This applies to both Thanos's side and the Avengers' side; both sides have absolute confidence in the strongest member of their own faction.

But no one expected that the very first collision would result in this outcome.

Those on Thanos's side, in particular, were overwhelmed with shock, unable to believe their eyes.

Do you think they don't know what Thanos's sword is made of?

That is the strongest metal known in the universe; even vibranium could not withstand Thanos's slash.

But this greatsword was cut in half by a spear with a relatively small blade.

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

Even Odin's Eternal Spear could not do that!

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

Thanos retreated step by step, the Reality Stone in his hand constantly radiating light, forming a barrier in front of him.

But the barrier that should have been indestructible crumbled at the first touch of that spear.

It's like that damned spear has the power to shatter reality.

Thanos intended to use all the power of the Infinity Stones to retaliate, but mobilizing the power of the Infinity Stones was no easy task.

Especially for relatively abstract gems like the Reality Gem and the Soul Gem, they require complete focus and manipulation.

In battle, even a moment of distraction could lead to defeat, so how could one possibly concentrate fully on manipulating the gems?

Therefore, in combat, gems are mostly given a few very simple functions.

For example, defense, absorption, release, and transformation, especially the latter, cannot be used in fast-paced battles.

"what!!"

Thanos couldn't help but roar. As the ruler of the universe, he couldn't forgive himself for retreating step by step like a cowardly lizard.

The Power Gem on the glove suddenly lit up, Li Xia's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly raised his left hand, whereupon the azure Space Gem also lit up.

Suddenly, a spatial rift opened in front of him, and a purple beam of light carrying an aura of destruction roared in and precisely entered the spatial rift.

But that wasn't all; a rift also opened up behind Thanos.

A torrent of purple energy erupted from the crack and struck him in an instant.

Thanos's pupils widened slightly, and at this critical moment, he abruptly stopped activating the Power Stone.

He rolled to the side, looking rather disheveled, to avoid the beam of light.

But in any case, he achieved his goal and was not forced to retreat any further.

"Owner!"
