Spider-Man 0X

Ch: 219 [Overpowered]

Peter landed, his gaze locked onto his corrupted alternate self, who stood ready, both of them mirrors yet worlds apart. The energy of the Infinity Power and Mind Stones pulsed around his counterpart. Peter tightened his grip on Mjolnir, feeling the weight of thunder coursing through him, his own aura thrumming with celestial energy. The city was silent for a moment, the calm before the storm.

"Let's settle this. You versus me," Peter said, raising Mjolnir, sparks flashing around him like a storm about to break. His corrupted self's smirk didn't waver.

"I knew I'd be my own biggest challenge," Corrupted Peter laughed, then clenched his gauntleted fist. The Power Stone flared, sending waves of destructive energy through the air. With a gesture, he shot a dark beam straight at Peter, a massive force of annihilation that rippled the very fabric of reality.

Peter opened two portals one before him and the other behind the corrupted freak. The beam passed through the portal before him harmlessly and came out of the other one behind the corrupted Peter, hitting him squarely in the back. It sent him flying forward. Peter threw Mjolnir, but the corrupted Peter recovered quickly.

"Argg!!" With an explosion of energy, he punched the hammer so hard that it shattered. Instantly, a burst of thunder blasted through the area, shattering the ground and blowing away the ruined buildings nearby. He landed, but the direct hit from his own Power Stone did some massive damage. "Cough! Cough!" He spat out black blood, grabbing his chest. The ancient armor he was wearing under his clothes saved him this time, but it was shattered and crumbling to dust now. Despite the armor's protection, he felt the massive shockwave and impact that nearly shattered his bones.

"You are not too bright now, are you? That dark energy has fucked up your head," Peter cracked his knuckles.

Corrupted Peter gritted his teeth, the corruption swirling around him with a sinister, vile aura. "You don't know the power that's surging through my veins right now." His eyes blazed with madness as he raised his gauntleted hand, the Infinity Stones glowing brightly. "I'm going to crush you, just like I did those who tried to stop me," He snarled, then unleashed a barrage of beams at Peter.

Peter created a portal in front of him, letting the attacks pass through harmlessly before he retaliated by shooting energy webs at the corrupted version of himself. The corrupted Peter dodged them with ease, but the energy webs had already closed the distance between them. Peter threw an electrified punch, but the corrupted Peter parried, sending a pulse of energy from his gauntlet that rippled across Peter's skin. The sensation was like a thousand needles piercing him, but it didn't affect him in the slightest. He simply grabbed his corrupted self by the throat and slammed him into the ground.

The corrupted Peter countered by using magic. He summoned three tentacle monsters that wrapped around Peter, pulling him back as the corrupted Peter staggered to his feet, then raised his gauntlet, power swirling around his fist. He rushed for Peter's head, but he yelled loudly, releasing a burst of raw Chi, squashing those monsters instantly, and redirected that punch with his portals.

[Bang!] The Corrupted Peter's fist passed through the portal and came out of another portal, right before his face. His eyes widened, realizing too late what was about to happen. Then, his own fist smashed into his face, shattering his jaw, and sending him reeling backward with a roar. Black blood spewed out of his face as his head twisted with a loud crack.

But the Corrupted Peter was still alive...

"You zombie bastard!" Peter charged at him and grabbed him by the neck. "I'm gonna rip your head out." He began to pull with all his strength. But the corrupted one used dark magic to turn his body into ashes and then reappear a few steps away from him.

"I can not die!" The Corrupted one yelled with a large grin. "As long as the Darkhold is there, nothing can kill me. NOT EVEN YOU." He pointed his finger at Peter.

"Well, we'll just see about that," Peter activated his celestial energy mode and sealed away his magic and chi for now.

His aura flared, shimmering with bright silver energy that enveloped him like a living storm. Every pulse of power made the ground tremble, and the corrupted Peter hesitated for a moment, his dark grin faltering. He had already used the Power Stone too many times and had taken massive damage. Even though the dark magic resurrected him once, there's a 24-hour timer in place. He can't resurrect himself anymore.

"Come on! Why the long face? Let's have some fun," Peter said with a smirk.

Corrupted Peter took a step back, then unleashed a blast of corruptive power. Peter raised his hands, palms outstretched. His celestial aura rippled, and the corruptive beam of power bounced off his palms, slamming back into the corrupted Peter. The sheer force sent him flying backward into the shattered ruins of a nearby building, but he quickly recovered, sending a swarm of corrupted energy needles toward Peter.

Peter stomped his foot on the ground, sending out a massive wave of cosmic energy that swallowed the corrupted needles and crushed them into dust. His power flowed through the ground, surrounding the corrupted Peter with an aura of pure light. It rippled across the air like thunder, and the corrupted Peter staggered back, gritting his teeth. Peter could feel the corruption fighting against his aura, the power of the stones thrumming violently around him.

"You don't stand a chance against me," Corrupted Peter tried to use the Power Stone again, but his arm exploded, unable to endure the backlash. He had overused it too many times, and it was starting to take its toll. Peter smiled, seeing his counterpart was suffering from the backlash of using that power.

"You've been saying that a lot, haven't you?" Peter said. "How about you give up?"

As Corrupted Peter struggled to keep his arm from crumbling under the strain of the Power Stone, a sudden ripple in the air marked the arrival of an ominous presence. Without warning, Morlun materialized behind him, his expression cold, calculated, and almost amused by the spectacle before him.

Before Corrupted Peter could react, Morlun drove the Totem Dagger deep into his back. The cursed blade, designed specifically to sever one's connection to the Web of Life, began to glow with a sinister light. Corrupted Peter's eyes widened in horror as he felt the dagger's energy slice through his mystical links, severing his powers at the very core. The connection to the Web snapped, leaving him vulnerable and painfully mortal. His aura of corruption flickered and faded, leaving him open and weak, as if a deep part of his essence had been ripped away.

"W-What… no!" Corrupted Peter choked, reaching a trembling hand toward Morlun. But Morlun's grip on the dagger remained firm as he twisted it further, a gleam of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

"Your arrogance blinds you," Morlun said coolly, his voice cutting through the air with a chilling calm. "Your life force belongs to me."

"NOOOO!!!" With a loud scream, corrupted Peter tried to use his life force to forcefully use the Power Stone once again, but nothing happened. He was helpless.

Morlun simply laughed, then yanked the dagger out of his back before plunging it back in, sending waves of agony rippling through the corrupted Peter. He tried to break free, but the dagger was already draining his life force, weakening him further.

"P-Please... Stop," He pleaded. Almost instantly, his body began to wither and age rapidly, turning pale and wrinkled like a corpse.

Morlun withdrew the dagger with a cruel smile, twisting the blade in his fingers. "You're nothing but an insect to me." Without hesitation, he stabbed the dagger into Corrupted Peter's skull, sending a surge of energy rippling through his body. The corrupted Peter let out one final scream of pain before falling silent, his eyes wide with terror and shock as his body withered away to dust.

Morlun let out a low chuckle as he brushed the dust aside with a wave of his hand, then turned to face Peter. "Well done. Thanks to you, I got to replenish my life force and as a reward, I'm going to kill you too, and take your life force. You see, I need totem energy to survive. So, goodbye." He vanished before Peter's eyes and appeared before his face, slamming down the dagger on his neck.

But to his surprise, Peter threw a light jab on his throat, shattering his neck bone and his arm flew up, severed as blood drizzled like a fountain. Before he could even understand what happened, Peter isolated that dagger in his mini pocket dimension. Then he grabbed Morlun's face and slammed him on the ground.

All this happened in less than 3 seconds.

"That's all you've got? You are just an overgrown leech that feeds on totems and life force," Peter chuckled as he began to disperse Morlun's life force from his body using his celestial power to control lifeforce. "An immortal leach... But what if I drain all your life force?"

"N-No... This is impossible... I am... Immortal... I can't die," Morlun struggled to speak as Peter drained his life force at an alarming rate. "What... Are... You..." His voice was barely audible now.

Peter simply smiled, a cold, vicious smile that sent a chill down the immortal's spine. "Even I don't know who I am, right now... Spiderman, A Totem, chosen by the Great Weaver, a magic and chi user, a Celestial being? But hey, who cares, right? As long as evil motherfucking bastards like you die, nothing matters," He drove his fist through Morlun's chest, his hand emerging from the other side, dripping with dark blood. Then he crushed the heart in his hand, releasing the last bit of life force from Morlun's body.

"Well, that was fun," He used his reality manipulation power to erase Morlun's existence, his body disintegrating into dust. "And poof, you are gone forever."

He stood up and looked around at the destruction and ruin surrounding him. The city lay in ruins, smoke rising from the rubble and charred buildings. His battle with his corrupted self had decimated the entire area.

Soon, the mirror dimension opened and Wadna got out. She was exhausted after fighting with her alternate self, but she won and that was what mattered.

"Looks like you won," Peter smiled. "Well done."

Wadna simply nodded and sat down on the ground with a heavy sigh. Peter used his power to shatter the barrier and technology around the area and checked for any other threats, but thankfully there were none. He then looked at the place where his corrupted self died. There lay the Eye of Agamotto, the Power Stone, and the Mind Stone.

Cyborg Gwen, who was waiting outside, came running as soon as the barrier shattered. She ran to Peter...

"..."

Peter glanced with a sad smile, "It's over."

"Did he... Was he..." Gwen stuttered as tears dripped from her eyes.

"No. It was quick," Peter lied. "He wanted me to tell you that he loves you and that he is sorry," He pulled her into a comforting hug.

"I-I should have been here. I-If I had come... Maybe I could have..." She broke down, sobbing into his chest.

"You did your best. He knew that," He stroked her hair gently.
