177A Bleecker Street, New York.The New York Sanctum.
Inside the ancient, solemn temple, rows of mystic sorcerers stood in mourning. Their voices rose in unison, chanting a solemn elegy for their fallen brother, Daniel Drumm — offering him their most sincere blessing.
"May your soul be eternal."
At the head stood a cold-faced sorcerer, his expression sharp and brooding. The whispers of dimensional gods coiled in his mind as his steely gaze fixed on the Dragon Warrior, Lo Pei.
"Mister Lo Pei.""Why did your petrification spell fail?!""The death of the temple's guardian is tied to you!"
The accusation thundered through the sanctum.
Lo Pei's tone remained calm.
"There are many reasons why the spell may have failed," he said slowly. "But I have already discovered other incantations—strong enough to subdue the Demon Emperor."
As he spoke, the middle-aged man in ancient Eastern robes traced glowing sigils in the air.
A portal bloomed before them, shimmering with magical sparks.
From within stepped an elderly man with wild hair styled like a Saiyan's — Uncle — followed closely by a dust-covered archaeologist: Jackie Chan!
"Uncle, where should we put this armor?"
The bumbling sumo warrior Toru asked clumsily, hefting a heavy set of armor.
"Aiya!!""You must treat the armor of the Sacred Warrior with respect!" Uncle scolded, his expression dead serious. Then his brows knit."Wait—why are you all holding a funeral?!"
The room fell silent.
Toru's small eyes went wide.The Demon Sorcerer Shendu had appeared in New York—and personally slain multiple mystic guardians?!
Not only Toru, but even Uncle and Jackie stood frozen in disbelief.
"Bad day, bad day, bad day!!" Jackie groaned, clutching his head.
Shendu—the ancient Demon Emperor who once ruled the Eastern Continent twice over—had vanished after the District 13 Incident, leaving no trace.
No one could have imagined he'd resurfaced in New York,and had already collected several of the Twelve Talismans.
"Rat.""Tiger.""Horse.""Sheep.""Dragon."
Lo Pei counted them on his fingers.
"Judging from what you've described—laser eyes, tearing apart demons barehanded, flight, telekinesis…""Shendu must have already reclaimed seven talismans.""It's only a matter of time before he comes for me—to seize the final five."
His face grew grim. Regret flickered in his eyes—but also relief.
Though he had failed to stop Shendu, he had found someone extraordinary:a brilliant sorcerer of science and magic combined—Tony Stark.
Lo Pei had taught him everything. No secrets withheld.
Scroll magic.Rune inscription.Enchantment technique.Every arcane craft he knew, freely passed on.
Along with it, the sacred mission of banishing the Demon Emperor.
Lo Pei was investing in the future—leaving Earth a precious legacy.
After all, he was no longer truly alive.Merely a terracotta vessel, resurrected through ancient arts.A relic of another age.
To witness the rebirth of magic, and to pass on his mantle—was enough to satisfy the Dragon Warrior.
"Aiya!! Uncle has a bad feeling!!"
The frail old man in the wool sweater suddenly shrieked, trembling violently as if struck by lightning.
"Not good! The being who once sealed the dimensional rift—it's opened again!""The demons are invading reality once more!"
Lo Pei's eyes blazed with divine fury as he cast his divination.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Multiple glowing portals formed instantly.Through them, they could see legions of monstrous creatures pouring out of a massive dimensional fissure.
The rapid-response troops stationed nearby had already fallen back—boarding elevators to retreat to the surface and prepare to detonate a large-scale magical bomb.
On the screen, a bright red countdown began:
59 seconds.58 seconds.57 seconds...
Once it hit zero, the enchanted bomb would unleash power vast enough to annihilate everything—obliterating the tide of monsters and wiping all traces from existence.
But that would not destroy the rift.The explosion's chaotic energy might even tear the dimensional barrier wider!
"The rift must be sealed from within!"
Lo Pei stepped toward the portal, voice solemn as a bell.
"Allow me."
His words echoed through the sanctum.Every sorcerer turned to him in awe, bowing their heads with reverence.
"The resurrected Dragon Warrior sacrifices himself again…" Jackie sighed. "Too bad Jade won't see this."
Meanwhile, deep beneath Midtown—
The cavern shuddered as blazing magic smoke filled the air.From within emerged a towering figure nearly seven meters tall—a body of chiseled muscle, gleaming with the metallic sheen of raw Vibranium.
Crimson eyes blazed like molten fire, brimming with terrifying rage.
"Who here is Lo Pei?!"
The voice came from a red-haired woman in a tactical combat suit—cold, commanding, magnetic.Her tone carried the authority of a queen.
No one replied.
A girl in a dark trench coat, long brown hair cascading over her shoulders, tilted her chin toward Lo Pei.
"Probably him."
Lo Pei—their only target.
The Horse Talisman he possessed could heal any wound, purge all corruption, even reverse neurodegenerative decay in the strongest minds on Earth.
For those who served the Demon Emperor, it was priceless.
"Hand over the Horse Talisman."
The red-haired woman's voice thundered like a great bell.As phoenix flames erupted from her body, she lifted into the air—her hair blazing like molten gold, her aura a storm of living fire.
The Phoenix Force.The primal essence of life and emotion spanning the infinite multiverse.Born at the dawn of existence—chaotic yet eternal, pure yet unpredictable.It judged all impurity with divine flame.
Its heat could vaporize oceans and scorch the earth bare—purging all desire and sin.
And its host, Jean Grey, possessed her own formidable powers:telepathy, telekinesis, and psychic empathy.
With the Phoenix by his side, Shendu's agent Shen Du was confident they could subdue Lo Pei.
Why only confident?
Because within Lo Pei's body resided the Rat Talisman,which could animate the inanimate—making his magic immune to absorption or corruption.Force would not work.
So, for insurance, Shen Du brought another—the Scarlet Witch, wielder of Chaos Magic,a power capable of rewriting reality itself.
Together, Phoenix and Chaos—forces that spanned infinity.Even if Lo Pei had protagonist-level luck, Shen Du feared nothing.
"Shen?""Shendu?!"
Gasps rippled through the room.
"Bad day! Bad day! Bad day!!" Jackie shouted before even stepping through the portal."Two young, beautiful women—followers of the Demon Emperor?!""This world has gone insane!"
Lo Pei could only sigh.
"So be it."
With a flick of his sleeves—
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Dozens of ancient talismans inscribed with pre-Qin runes flew into the air, circling around him at blinding speed.
"Evil spirits, begone!""Evil spirits, begone!""Evil spirits, begone!"
He chanted the powerful mantra.
The old man in the wool sweater gripped a pufferfish and a dried gecko in each hand like twin pistols,blasting rapid bursts of magic at the towering foe.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Wanda flicked her fingers—a shimmering scarlet barrier bloomed before her,deflecting every single spell with effortless grace.
"Huh?" Lo Pei's eyes widened. "This energy… it's exactly like Chaos Magic!"
His irises trembled, pupils contracting to pinpoints—utterly stunned beyond measure.
And through it all—
Beep. Beep. Beep.
The enchanted bomb continued its countdown.
55 seconds.54 seconds…
