After collecting the World Tree, Kytheron used the subtle connection between the Infinity Stones to find the sealed Reality Stone.
"So this is the Reality Stone, it's truly unique."
Kytheron looked at the dark red, fluid-like substance before him with a touch of emotion.
With a wave of his hand, the fluid slowly gathered towards Kytheron, eventually solidifying into a dark red gem, which then embedded itself onto the Infinity Gauntlet.
"Soon, you will be complete!"
Feeling the terrifying energy fluctuations emanating from the five-gem Infinity Gauntlet, Kytheron murmured softly.
Adding the Mind Stone he had previously obtained from Thanos, Kytheron now possessed five of the six Infinity Stones, with only the Soul Stone remaining.
Kytheron decided to personally make a trip to Vormir.
Although the Infinity Stones are indeed supreme treasures within their respective Universes, they also come with significant limitations.
Once they leave the Universe they were born in, their power, while not entirely useless, is greatly diminished.
However, none of this had anything to do with what Kytheron intended to use the Stones for.
After all, he wasn't as neurotic as Thanos, who would snap his fingers to destroy half of all life, or even all life, at the drop of a hat.
What he intended to do was to use the power of the Infinity Stones to complete another leap in his own life, truly allowing himself to fully enter the Multiverse level.
Countless cases had taught Kytheron a truth: all power gained through external means is illusory; only when great power belongs to oneself is it real.
After a not-so-small storm of a War of the Gods, the Universe might temporarily usher in a period of peace.
However, who could truly say!
"Kytheron, you have saved the Nine Realms once again. We Asgard owe you more and more!"
At this moment, Thor, feeling that the Nine Realms had completely returned to their former peace, came to Kytheron's side.
Although he failed to prevent Kytheron from taking the World Tree, Thor did not harbor any strange feelings towards Kytheron because of it.
"Thor, I told you, we are friends!"
"Furthermore, even if it weren't for Asgard, I would still have intervened to stop this conflict."
Kytheron patted Thor's shoulder nonchalantly, though there was one more thing he hadn't said in his heart, which was "he would eventually intervene for the system's mission."
Unfortunately, he couldn't tell Thor this.
"Master, may I stay by your side?"
At this moment, Hela also walked to Kytheron's side with a humble expression, pleading.
"Very well, your gloomy Death Realm is indeed not a good place to stay."
"I'm going to a place right now, just follow along!"
Kytheron looked at Hela, who had returned to her normal form, and did not refuse. After all, she was his chosen candidate to take over the Death Authority under him.
"Thank you very much, My Master!"
Hela seemed very happy to receive Kytheron's approval.
Thor, watching his sister appear so humble, didn't find anything wrong with it. After all, Asgard worships the strong.
"Then Kytheron, I must return to Asgard first. I am worried about my people!"
The current Thor was increasingly resembling a true God King!
After speaking, Thor transformed into a bolt of lightning, tearing through space and departing. The Thor of today was the true Thor.
"Then, let's go too!"
Kytheron said to Hela, then opened a spatial portal in front of him. The other end of the portal was Vormir.
"Master, this is?"
Hela felt the Planet beneath her feet, only to sense a strange calling resounding in her heart.
When Odin collected the Infinity Stones, he had not informed Hela of the existence of this place, so she did not know about Vormir.
As the Goddess of Death of Asgard who wielded a portion of the Death Authority, Hela's divine power was indeed related to souls, so it was not surprising that she could sense the strangeness of Vormir.
"This is where the last Infinity Stone is kept. Let's go!"
With that, Kytheron led Hela towards the cliff ahead.
Meanwhile, Alexander Pierce, the new Guardian of the Stone, sensing the arrival of outsiders on Vormir, immediately prepared to fulfill his duty.
At this moment, Kytheron looked up at the Guardian of the Stone walking towards them and couldn't help but let out a small gasp of surprise: "Hmm, something seems a little off!"
Because Kytheron clearly remembered that the one guarding this place should be Red Skull, but who was this old man appearing before him now!
Immediately, he began to search his memories based on the old man's face, and instantly found the answer.
Before the man could speak, Kytheron directly said:
"If I remember correctly, the one guarding this place should be Schmidt, your HYDRA elder, Alexander Pierce."
"Perhaps you should tell me what exactly happened here?"
Seeing Kytheron call out his name and even the name of the previous Guardian, Pierce, who had intended to act mysterious, was instantly stunned.
Subsequently, Kytheron directly used the power of the Mind Stone to peer into Pierce's memories, instantly understanding the entire story.
"Speaking of which, all of this was actually caused by me, which is a bit interesting."
"However, since Red Skull escaped from here, his biggest wish must be to return to Earth to settle scores with his love-hate rival, Captain America!"
After understanding the truth of the matter, Kytheron had no interest whatsoever in Red Skull's escape, as their levels were too far apart.
"Are you also from Earth? You look like a Mutant!"
The recovered Pierce looked at Kytheron, whose eyes were scarlet and had two horns on his head, guessing that Kytheron might be a Mutant.
"Alright, there's nothing for you here, move aside!"
Kytheron had no desire to answer Pierce's question and simply waved his hand, throwing him tens of thousands of miles away.
Walking to the edge of the cliff, Kytheron directly jumped into the Sea of Souls.
At this moment, the five Infinity Stones in Kytheron's hand all began to emit light, as if calling out to the Soul Stone.
At the same time, the entire Sea of Souls beneath Kytheron also began to emit an orange glow, but the Soul Stone did not appear for a long time, as if it were a reserved young lady unwilling to show herself.
"Hmph! A mere Soul Stone, I have already come to take you myself. Do you expect me to sacrifice my most beloved person like others!"
As Kytheron let out a cold snort, the light from the five Stones on the Gauntlet intensified.
An endless pulling force emanated from the last empty socket on the Infinity Gauntlet, and instantly, the Sea of Souls before him seemed to boil.
The orange light slowly began to contract, eventually solidifying into a single point, flying towards Kytheron.
Immediately, Kytheron held his right hand in front of him, and the last Stone plunged into the final socket, completing the set of six Infinity Stones.
Instantly, the terrifying energy contained within the Infinity Stones poured into Kytheron's body.
"It's time!"
