Chapter 1035: The Time Stone

After a relaxed chat with everyone, Noah walked out of the hall with Ancient One. The two walked steadily and soon came to a secret room near the hall. The light in the secret room was soft and the atmosphere was a little solemn.

"You're saying that the Power Stone among the Infinity Stones has fallen into the hands of the Mad Titan? And now he is being corroded by the power of the Corrupted Void, becoming more powerful and more terrifying than ever before?" Ancient One listened quietly to what Noah had to say, his brows furrowed tightly, his tone filled with deep solemnity.

Ancient One is no stranger to the name Thanos. She controls the Time Stone in her hands, and in countless observations of the future, Thanos often appears in various scenes on Earth. As a powerful villain, Thanos' existence has always been a potential threat in Ancient One's mind.

However, since Noah appeared in this world, the originally relatively stable future trajectory has suddenly become chaotic, just like a jigsaw puzzle that can no longer accurately piece together a complete picture. Therefore, during this period of time, Ancient One could not observe Thanos' future direction as clearly as before.

However, she did not expect that during the period when she could not spy, Thanos had undergone such a huge change, and the root of all this seemed to be inextricably linked to the appearance of Noah.

Hearing the news that Thanos had obtained the Power Stone, Ancient One's face changed slightly, but this was one of the many possibilities that could happen in the future, so she was not overly panicked. In contrast, she was more concerned about the more powerful and dangerous power that Thanos had gained after being corrupted by the Void. Compared with the past, the threat posed by Thanos to the entire universe has increased by more than a hundred times. Thinking of this, Ancient One's eyes flashed with a trace of worry.

The situation in the universe has undergone such a drastic change. Under such circumstances, can he really retire safely and hand over the responsibility of the Supreme Sorcerer to Strange smoothly? Ancient One couldn't help but feel doubtful.

But just when she was feeling uneasy, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Noah, who was always calm and composed beside her. Inexplicably, the tension in Ancient One's heart relaxed a little. Yes, no matter what kind of storms the universe faces, at least there is Noah, a magical guy, to support it. What's more, the so-called retirement does not mean completely staying out of it. Even if she takes off the title of Supreme Sorcerer, she still has the ability and responsibility to protect the peace of the earth.

"In my opinion, Thanos is not a difficult problem now. It's just that he is too good at hiding his whereabouts, which is why I can't do anything to him for a while." Noah said slowly. At this moment, he didn't know that Thanos had already extended his tentacles to the multiverse, so he was still confident in his heart that with his own strength, it would be easy to deal with Thanos.

"However, I have united all the major interstellar civilizations in the universe to jointly develop a technology that will allow Thanos to hide nowhere. I believe that it won't be long before this problem is completely solved." Speaking of this, Noah was very confident about the thriving laboratory on Xandar.

"Unite the entire universe? I didn't expect you to be so capable." When Gu Yi heard this, her eyes were full of amazement. In her opinion, Noah had been away from Earth for only a short time, but he was able to achieve such a feat and unite the forces of the entire universe, which was beyond imagination. After all, although they were interstellar civilizations, in Gu Yi's opinion, these civilizations might be no different from countries on Earth. There were many barriers and different interests. It was not easy to integrate them together.

"Well, this is not just my own achievement. The interstellar civilization of the Nova Corps also contributed greatly." Noah did not take all the credit on himself. In his heart, the Nova Corps and the Xandarians like Iranirel all left a very deep impression on him. It was thanks to their unremitting efforts that the Anti-Void Alliance was able to be formed and operated so smoothly.

"However, although the Power Stone fell into Thanos' hands, I did not gain nothing. I successfully got another stone." After saying this, Noah slowly raised his hand, and in an instant, four rays of light of different colors bloomed from his palm. Four Infinity Stones surrounded his palm, emitting a mysterious and powerful aura.

Seeing so many Infinity Stones gathered together, Ancient One's eyes flashed with shock. In her long life, she had never seen such a sight before. She was sure that this was probably the first time in the history of the universe that someone could gather so many Infinity Stones in one person's hands.

Ancient One's eyes focused on the one among the four gems, the one that was emitting orange and strange pink light. With her knowledge of the Infinity Gems, she recognized it at a glance, and it was the Soul Gem that Noah had found in the universe.

"The Soul Gem, I got it from Vormir, and it's one of the most mysterious gems. If someone hadn't found its location in advance, I would have had to spend a lot of time and go through many twists and turns to find it." Noah took the Soul Gem out from the four gems, handed it to Ancient One, and explained in detail.

When Noah talked about Vormir, he also shared with Ancient One what happened on Vormir regarding the Soul Stone.

"Hmm... This Infinity Stone is indeed full of personality." Hearing that the Soul Stone actually showed such a distinct sense of autonomy, Ancient One could not help but feel surprised. She stroked the Time Stone on her chest. Although she could vaguely sense the fluctuations of consciousness contained in the stone, the Time Stone had never been as active as the Soul Stone, as if it had independent emotions and thoughts.

As if it had heard the two's discussion, the Soul Gem glowed slightly as if it was angry, and there seemed to be dissatisfaction in the flashing. Seeing this, Gu Yi smiled gently.

"So, you came to see me this time to take away the Time Stone?" Gu Yi asked softly with a faint smile on his face, looking straight at Noah.

"Well... I do have this idea. You know that collecting Infinity Stones has always been my goal. Now that I have obtained four, the Time Stone is naturally in my plan." Noah said frankly.

At this moment, he suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. His deep relationship with Kamar-Taj had become an obstacle in this matter. If it weren't for this friendship, with his strength, he could have directly seized the Time Stone, and he wouldn't be so entangled as he is now.

Hearing this, Ancient One raised his hand and held up the Eye of Agamotto on his chest, and a green light slowly bloomed out.
