Asgard's power primarily comes from Odin.
This power originates from the original founder of Asgard and has been passed down through the bloodline of Odin's family for generations.
The Odinforce wasn't originally called the Odinforce—it went through several name changes.
At first, it was known as the Power of Buri, named after Odin's grandfather, Buri.
Later, it became the Power of Bor, named after Odin's father, Bor.
Finally, it was named the Odinforce, as its strongest manifestation was inherited by Odin himself.
Simply put, Asgard's power is a legacy.
Anyone with Asgardian blood can inherit this power, but whether they can fully unleash its potential depends entirely on their talent.
In truth, Asgard has never been just a name or a place—it is a familial inheritance.
As long as there are still descendants of this "family" alive, Asgard will continue to exist.
If Luo Bai were to absorb Asgard's power, wouldn't that be the same as cutting off Asgard's lifeline?
Of course, Odin would never agree to this.
At this moment, he no longer cared about his dignity as the All-Father and immediately roared in anger, "I've already made concessions, but you still want to siphon power from Asgard?! You're trying to take everything at once! This is too much!"
Luo Bai chuckled and gently reasoned, "God King, I think you're mistaken. You were already planning to give me power, so what's wrong with me taking some from Asgard? Besides, if you don't give it to me, others will eventually take it anyway."
Odin frowned. "What do you mean?"
Luo Bai responded calmly, "Most people may not know the truth about Ragnarok, but you do. Hela is your daughter—no matter how powerful she is, she alone can't bring about Ragnarok."
"The meaning of Ragnarok is clear: once it arrives, the entire Asgardian race will be annihilated. All gods will perish—without exception."
"Do you really think Hela has the power to destroy you, Odin?"
"You should know the true cause of Ragnarok better than I do."
Luo Bai didn't explain the full details, but Odin understood immediately.
He was stunned for a moment, then after a long silence, he asked, "How do you know the truth about Ragnarok? That shouldn't be possible... I only foresaw it because of the Eye of Wisdom. How could you possibly know this?"
Luo Bai ignored his question and continued, "How I know isn't important. What matters is that the gods lurking in the shadows have been eyeing Asgard's power for a long time. If you allow me to absorb some of it, I can ensure Asgard's safety. But if they get their hands on it… I can't guarantee what will happen."
Odin fell silent.
Because… Luo Bai was right.
The real cause of Ragnarok wasn't Hela. She was merely a distraction.
The true Ragnarok was orchestrated by the gods in the shadows.
Almost no one knew the truth—that Ragnarok wasn't a singular event, but an endless cycle.
Odin only learned this secret after hanging himself on Yggdrasil, sacrificing his eye and blood to gain the power of runes and vast knowledge.
The truth behind Ragnarok was that it was a grand feast for the ancient gods—a ritual of slaughter.
No one knew who these shadowy gods truly were.
All that was known was their title—the Gods of Gods, deities dwelling in the Shadow Dimension.
They fed on Ragnarok. To put it simply, the gods of Asgard were their "livestock," raised for slaughter.
Once these "pets" matured, the shadow gods would trigger Ragnarok, slaughtering them and devouring their flesh, blood, and divine power.
Then, Asgard would be rebuilt once again. A new set of gods would rise, only for the cycle to repeat.
No one knew how many times this cycle had occurred, or how many times Asgard had been destroyed and reborn.
But Odin was the only god who had seen the truth.
He knew he couldn't defeat the shadow gods, so he placed his hopes on Thor.
According to prophecy, Thor was the only god who could end Ragnarok.
That was why Odin wanted Thor to grow stronger as quickly as possible.
However, fate was unpredictable.
Luo Bai was the unexpected variable.
His existence had altered the prophecy.
That was why Odin had humbled himself, repeatedly seeking Luo Bai's help.
Although everything Luo Bai had just said was correct and Odin truly wanted to end Ragnarok…
This guy Luo Bai was simply too devious!
The first thing he asked for was power?!
In truth, Odin was still unwilling to let Luo Bai absorb Asgard's power.
But… Luo Bai had spoken the truth about Ragnarok.
And what he said made sense.
But there was one problem.
"You are not Asgardian. You don't have Asgardian blood. How could you possibly absorb Asgard's power? And more importantly… do you really think you can defeat those gods? They are the Gods of Gods. Even I stand no chance against them," Odin said, his expression full of concern.
Noticing Odin's worries, Luo Bai replied honestly, "I might not be able to, but the power of the Fairies might."
Fairy power?
Odin frowned, muttering, "Are you talking about… the same Fairy Power that once defeated the gods?"
"Exactly," Luo Bai nodded.
Odin was puzzled. "But wasn't that power sealed away?"
Luo Bai explained calmly, "I don't know how it got free, but right now, it's with me."
????
"What?! It's on you?!" Odin's eyes widened in shock.
In that instant, Odin finally understood why Luo Bai was so powerful.
Luo Bai was just a young man who had studied magic for even less time than Thor—so how was he able to support all of Kamar-Taj?
Good grief.
He was completely overpowered!
Still struggling to comprehend the situation, Odin couldn't help but ask, "How did this power end up with you?"
Luo Bai gave a faint smile and replied, "Like I said, I'm just very lucky."
Odin was speechless, but inwardly, he couldn't help but complain.
How could this be called luck?! This was absolutely ridiculous!
After a moment of silence, Odin finally said, "I have heard of the Fairy Power.
It is a force that can devour everything and grow infinitely.
If you truly possess it… even if I refuse your request, you could easily consume Asgard's power on your own."
Luo Bai nodded in agreement. "That's true. But if I did that, it would be an act of aggression. After all, I am the Sorcerer Supreme, and we are allies. I have no reason to invade Asgard."
Odin frowned and asked, "So I should be grateful that you have principles?"
"I've always been a man of principle. And when I don't have any, I make them up," Luo Bai replied with a smirk.
"..."
Odin was at a loss for words.
Creating principles out of thin air?! What kind of logic was that?!
Odin fell silent once again.
He didn't say anything, and no one knew what was going through his mind.
After a long while, he finally sighed and compromised:
"I've thought about it, and I have to admit... what you said makes sense. Fine, I agree. As long as you're willing to help Asgard, absorbing some of its power... isn't out of the question."
Right now, the situation was highly unfavorable for Asgard, and Odin had no other choice.
He had no choice but to believe in the prophecy.
Seeing Odin agree, Luo Bai wasted no time. Without saying a word, he pulled out a contract and handed it over.
"Sign it."
Odin glanced at him, then took the contract and began reading through it.
The contract stated:
"I, Odin, the All-Father, hereby agree to cooperate with Luo Bai."
"Luo Bai shall protect Asgard and oversee Thor's growth, while Asgard, in turn, will provide Luo Bai with energy on a regular and quantifiable basis."
Under normal circumstances, Odin would never have signed something like this.
But now... he had no choice.
With a heavy heart, he took up the pen and signed his name.
Luo Bai took the contract, gave it a once-over, nodded in satisfaction, and muttered under his breath:
"Another energy source... big money."
Although his voice was low, Odin still heard him clearly.
He couldn't help but frown.
"Another energy source? What do you mean by that?"
Luo Bai casually put the contract away and replied nonchalantly:
"Before you, Chthon, Dormammu, and Mephisto also signed similar contracts with me."
What the hell?!
Chthon?!
Dormammu?!
Mephisto?!
Odin's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Aren't you the Supreme Sorcerer?! How the hell did you get those evil gods to sign contracts with you?!"
Luo Bai quickly corrected him:
"Evil gods? What evil gods? They've turned over a new leaf. They said they want to protect the Earth now."
"..."
No. No, no, no.
Odin had already forced himself to accept the absurdity of the fairy power being inside Luo Bai.
But now, this lunatic was telling him that those three ancient, malevolent entities had suddenly decided to become the Earth's guardians?!
Chthon, the God of Darkness, protecting the Earth?!
Are you kidding me?!
Odin had fought those monsters himself! He couldn't defeat them, but somehow, Luo Bai convinced them to sign contracts?
At this point... why wasn't Luo Bai sitting on the throne of Asgard?
No—why stop at Asgard?
If Luo Bai wanted, could he unify the entire universe too?!
The Ancient One was truly lucky.
Where the hell did she find this god-tier disciple?!
Why call him the Supreme Sorcerer?
Just call him Supreme God-King at this point!
Odin glanced at Luo Bai, then thought about his two sons...
His face darkened.
So infuriating!!
If his two sons weren't so useless, would he really be in this situation, begging a junior for help?!
He, Odin, the mighty God-King of Asgard, ruler of the Nine Realms, feared across the cosmos for centuries—
Now forced to plead with a mortal in his old age.
Odin clenched his fists.
At this very moment, he wanted nothing more than to storm back to Asgard and slap both of his sons senseless!!!
