Chapter 789: Extracting the Phoenix Force (Second Update)
Chapter 789: Extracting the Phoenix Force (Second Update)
After Eric's second activation, his control over magnetic fields significantly improved.
After Hank's second activation, his physical strength and speed were enhanced, and his brain was further developed.
After Logan's second activation, the hardness and sharpness of his bone claws, while not matching Adamantium, surpassed half that of steel. Additionally, even if they were broken, they could quickly regenerate, and his healing ability was greatly enhanced.
After Raven's second activation, she could not only transform into anyone but also change her size, rivaling the abilities of Ant-Man.
After helping all the mutants with their second activation, Jerry took Apocalypse into the Ring Universe.
He didn't plan to leave Apocalypse to Charles and Eric, even though his Mind Control Spell could keep Apocalypse obedient to them.
Nothing is absolute, and once he left this universe, he probably wouldn't return. If Apocalypse somehow woke up or if Charles and Eric died in the future, anything could happen.
Without Jean Grey, who possessed the Phoenix Force, other mutants and humans were no match for Apocalypse.
"Jerry, I think I've found the girl you mentioned!"
On the third day after Charles's second activation, Jerry finally received the good news he had been waiting for.
Now, Charles could not only locate all mutants on Earth but also see and hear what was happening around each mutant through their perspective.
Just now, Charles heard the name given to a newborn mutant girl by her parents, and it was indeed "Jean Grey", the name Jerry had been mentioning.
He immediately came to inform Jerry.
Jerry wasn't a mutant, but he had done a lot for them. Charles didn't know how to repay him, so he spent every spare moment searching for Jean Grey.
It wasn't an easy task to locate and observe each hidden mutant on Earth.
Frequent use of the Neural Amplifier had caused his once-thick hair to thin significantly.
"Where is she?"
Jerry quickly approached Charles.
"Is it her?"
In a hospital nursery, Charles, who had been teleported there by Jerry, pointed to a baby in a crib and asked.
Jerry smiled and nodded:
"Yes, it's her!"
Observing her so closely, Jerry could clearly sense the powerful Phoenix Force within the infant.
Relieved by Jerry's confirmation, Charles finally relaxed.
He had been exhausted during this period.
"Wait here for a moment. I'll take her away first."
Jerry picked up the baby Jean and was about to enter his Ring Universe when Charles placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Jerry, promise me you won't harm her!"
"Don't worry, I'm actually saving her."
Jerry removed Charles's hand and instantly disappeared with the baby.
He was right. While his goal was to extract the Phoenix Force from Jean Grey, he was also indirectly saving her life.
Before reaching adulthood and entering the mutant school, Jean Grey couldn't control the powerful Phoenix Force within her, leading to many tragic events in her childhood.
For example, a car accident caused by the Phoenix Force led to her mother's death, and her father, who deeply loved his wife, saw her as a murderer and a monster.
Later, due to the influence of the Phoenix Force, Jean Grey turned dark and killed Mystique, causing numerous disasters.
Now that Jerry has removed the Phoenix Force, Jean Grey will have the same telepathic abilities as Charles and will have a happy, peaceful childhood, eventually becoming a pillar of the mutant community.
If extracting the Phoenix Force truly led to Jean Grey's death, Jerry wouldn't do it; he still has his principles.
At worst, he could wait for her to grow up or go to another universe to find an adult Jean.
In fact, even if she were to die, with his current abilities, as long as her soul remains intact, he could easily create an identical body for her.
"Better to be safe and secure the soul first."
As soon as he entered the Ring Universe, Jerry extracted and preserved little Grey's soul from her body.
Then, he began using the laws of the Single Universe to extract the Phoenix Force from her body.
The Phoenix Force within little Grey's body, of course, did not yield easily, but it was not the complete Phoenix Force; it was only a small fraction of it.
Jerry, however, was using the entire power of the Single Universe, which was more than enough to suppress this fraction of the Phoenix Force.
Thus, everything went more smoothly than Jerry had anticipated. In less than two minutes, he completely extracted the Phoenix Force from little Grey and began forcibly integrating it into his Single Universe.
"It looks like it will take a few days."
As one of the three ancient forces, even a small fraction of the Phoenix Force, which operates on a Multiverse level, cannot be fully integrated into a Single Universe quickly.
After successfully extracting the Phoenix Force, Jerry returned little Grey's soul to her body and brought her back to the nursery.
"Truly, the embodiment of life and the mind!"
A week later, feeling the changes in the Ring Universe after absorbing the Phoenix Force, Jerry was full of admiration.
During this week, he did nothing else. He even had the Celestials and Kulorido put aside their planet-creation work to assist him in refining the Phoenix Force.
Finally, the refinement was successful, and the Phoenix Force was perfectly integrated into his Ring Universe.
The most significant change was the greatly increased speed of creating life within the Ring Universe, as if the entire universe had gained a special vitality.
Expanding a Single Universe has three main challenges.
The most difficult is the sun.
The sun is the source of life and energy. Without the constant emission of energy from the sun, life cannot be born or thrive.
However, with the Sun Generator, this has become the least challenging aspect.
The second challenge is creating life, particularly a vast and diverse array of life forms. This is a massive undertaking, second only to creating the sun in terms of time and effort.
With the assistance of the Phoenix Force, the speed of creating life within the Ring Universe has significantly increased.
In the future, as more of the Phoenix Force is integrated, this effect will continue to strengthen, effectively giving wings to the expansion of the entire Single Universe.
All he needs to do now is solve the most straightforward and least technologically demanding task of creating planets, and he could reach the threshold for entering the Multiverse much sooner than expected.
This is the primary reason for Jerry's joy.
