Dream realm, testing ground.

This is one of the places where the dream world is most closely connected with the material world, and it is the umbilical cord between the dream world and the material world.

Below the Upper Realm, Above the Lower Realm.

All the transcendents who participate in the promotion ceremony will arrive here in a dream with a nightmarish in their souls. It's like being thrown into the deep sea, but in the end it's not drowning down – because "promotion" is a kind of transcendence. Its direction is upward.

The dream world does not follow the laws of the material world, and has a clear and orderly east, west, north and south. Each area seems to be independent and overlapping.

The "Proving Ground" is a lake, and at the same time it is like an hourglass of water linking the two worlds. The pool of water standing up was filled with warm amniotic fluid, and the upside-down world was soaked in blood. Transparent bubbles floated steadily in the pool, each containing nine sleeping souls.

This is the essence of the promotion ceremony.

Inside each bubble is a miniature world.

Inside one of the bubbles, Akpolis's projection manifests here.

The old lizardman held a snake staff and looked earnestly at Eneo, the "City Breaker".

Erneo stopped.

"Looks like you remember me, Akpolis!"

She didn't fear it at all, she just grinned: "It's been about eight hundred years, old man!" Do you want to continue to cooperate! ”

Ernio has a good looks, an excellent figure, and fair skin. Her face is painted with purple war paints, which look like a special eyeshadow. It's like a cobra's markings.

But compared to her appearance, her voice was extremely heroic and rough. It was impossible to hear whether it was a male or female voice, and it came from a long distance like a war cry.

Akpolis had a solemn expression.

For He knows the difficulties of those before him.

One of Xiong's most loyal apostles, Ernio was a giantess with long red hair who brought bloody rain when she walked.

On today's Avalon Island, there was once more than just a land of giants. It was also home to a group of elves, who were once separated from the giants. Lancelot I's adoptive mother, Vivien, was a descendant of the elves of that generation before she became a fairy.

These elves, who do not inhabit the Eternal Church, are more warlike than their fellow Churchmen. They had technology that was ahead of their time, and the capital was once known as the "City That Never Falls".

It was during that battle that Erneo broke the barrier and broke the gates. Her mother was a priestess among the giants, and her father was a giant bear that was said to be the embodiment of the Most High Heaven.

During that war, she drank liquor mixed with the blood of the elves while rolling up a storm that destroyed everything. After the destruction of the city, she did not intend to end the war, but enjoyed the fighting between the two sides. So Enio and her brother Ares the Destroyer of Nations launched a massacre.

Eventually, the atrocities of their siblings sparked the wrath of Si Candle. At the prayer of the elves, the Apostle of the Candle, Eternal Vanguard, Carstenning, descended on the material realm and slew the giants.

After their deaths, the siblings were elevated to the rank of apostles by the High Heavens. He gave them new powers, and gave Ares a flaming spear and Enyo a storm-wound warhammer.

In the days when Xiong Tianji was still the supreme heaven, they were worshipped by the giants as the gods of war and the goddess of war. They are two of the four strongest apostles under the command of the Most High Heaven, and together they hold the power of war.

"It's been a long time."

Akpolis said coldly, "But I've never worked with you - don't talk about our relationship so familiarly.

"Why, is Xiong Tianji's subordinates so short of people? To deal with a mortal, you have to send out the city breaker. ”

Eneo enjoys the cruelty of war, and she always makes the emotions of both sides of the war spiral out of control. At first, it was just a matter of rational friction, but under the influence of hatred and death, the war will gradually become out of control, and the intensity and bloodiness will continue to rise...... This is the influence that comes from Eneo.

Whenever the war enters this cruel phase, it is also time for Akpolis to save people. This is why Eñio claims that they have cooperated.

After the High Heaven was defeated by the Crowned Celestial Division, and lost the leading position of the Path of Power, he was pierced through his body by the Holy Sword, and the body of the giant bear turned into scarlet and fell to the ground.

His blood soaked through the realm of dreams, dripping into the realm of matter, and turned into pools of blood. A hungry, skinny cub who has lost the protection of the mother bear drinks his blood as milk, and grows up.

Drinking the blood of the Most High Heaven, He became the successor of the Most High Heaven. When it ascended into the realm of dreams, the will of the Most High was resurrected from within it. After killing the "Barbarian Heavenly Division", which had both the attributes of the path of love and the path of authority, he seized the fragment of the Heavenly Division and became the "Xiong Heavenly Division" with the path of authority and transcendence.

But few of His former apostles returned.

The path of strength is the path of relying on the strong to bully the weak and the weak to eat the strong. When He became weak, they rightfully abandoned Him.

Among the four strongest apostles of the Supreme Heaven, the "Tyrant" was besieged and killed three times by the knights under the command of the Silver Crowned Dragon, and has not yet been resurrected; "Rakshasa" was tamed by the Candle Celestial Division; The "Destroyer" is seduced by Kagetenji's beauty and voluntarily becomes a follower of Kagetenji.

The "City Breaker" in front of him is the strongest apostle left under Xiong Tiansi.

"Are you going to stop me? Just an avatar who dares to stop me? ”

Erneo mentions the Invisible Hammer with interest: "Then let's try it." ”

“…… Scold. ”

Akpolis's eyes turned completely cold, and he sneered.

If it was when Xiong Tiansi was still the supreme heaven, Akpolis would definitely not be able to defeat Ernio.

After all, Akpolis is just a doctor and doesn't have that much power.

The Most High Heaven is called "Most High" because His power is supreme.

In the process of defeating him, there was the direct or indirect help of many pillar gods, celestial divisions, and apostles, such as the Sand Hour, the Candle, the Lord of the Scales, the Shadow Celestial Division, the Ring Heavenly Division, and the Banquet Master. It is not so much that the Supreme Heaven died as a challenge to his fellow Celestial Priests, but that He died of His own unbridled attitude.

But after all, Xiong Tiansi has not been long since he returned to the position of Tiansi, and it will be less than two hundred years after a full fight. He couldn't give Eñio much power...... And with Ernio's own strength alone, she may not be able to beat herself now.

That is, the artifact of the Supreme Heaven in the past, and it can also make Akpolis a little jealous.

The next moment, Erneo took off the human head flask from his waist and took a sip.

"Ah————h

With a painful but loud roar, Erneo's skin was suddenly soaked with the blood forced out of her body.

As soon as the blood came into contact with the air, it turned into blood and condensed into a storm.

In an instant, a scarlet, violent storm erupted from within her.

Bears, wolves, falcons, horses—the scarlet storm turned into countless beasts, accompanied by countless wailing blood-colored skulls, roaring with an overwhelming, devastating momentum!

The entire world around them creaked, and the simulated space created by the power of the pillar god crackled with red lightning, and cracks appeared and disappeared one after another.

She didn't bother to kill the prey marked by the Lord Monarch precisely, but planned to destroy everyone directly!

Anyway, Akpolis, as the presiding officer of the promotion ceremony, must take her attack head-on if he wants to protect everyone.

Even if Eñio is a little weaker than Akpolis now, if she is the one who is attacking, she will have an advantage.

Even though the former path of strength was a reckless man who couldn't think, he only had the cunning of a beast when he fought. Now it's instinct.

"I warned you."

Akpolis sneered and paused for his staff: "Then die here." ”

It just so happened that he had enough time to delay.

The world around them became blurry and fantastical in an instant.

The colors seem to leach out of the void, slippery to the point of disgusting.

The formless, substanceless, colorless, and tasteless "plague" spread all around, turning into ominous black markings that gradually appeared on the surface of Erio's body—just as his daughter Yao Tianji was the Tianji who controlled medicine and poison, he also held the power of the epidemic.

As early as they spoke, Akpolis had been poisoned. And by this time she was already poisonous.

But there was no reaction at all to this.

- What if she herself is attacked or even killed?

The Lord's purpose was still accomplished.

You still can't protect them!

Akpolis didn't react to the scarlet storm that howled like a wolf and seemed to destroy everything. It's like giving up resistance.

He only maintained the plague that was gradually spreading in the air, and the whole person gradually turned into a stone sculpture.

But at the same time that this Akpolis was completely still, another "Akpolis" suddenly appeared!

- That's what "Akpolis" is all about!

"Finally caught up."

A young and energetic voice came.

It's not a ritual clone sent out to preside over the ceremony, but the same apostle body as Enio!

But this Akpolis was not the old man who was drooping and hunched at the waist, and even had to hold a cane in both hands to walk.

Akpolis is now a young man in his twenties and thirties.

His eyes were intense, and his muscles swelled to perfection. The body is covered with shiny black scales, and the tail is thick and powerful. More like a dragon than a lizardman.

He was not holding the serpent's rod at this moment, but empty-handed.

- This is the "rejuvenation medicine", one of the "supreme three medicines" mastered by Akpolis!

The real Akpolis is such a youthful gesture.

Because He had already taken the three drugs he had developed, breaking through the triple barrier of life, time and fate, and completing the sublimation of mortals!

Resurrection, rejuvenation, and......

I saw a pair of dragon's wings suddenly puff up behind Akpolis.

His body began to swell as harder, and the snake scales on his body gradually turned into dragon scales.

- Immortality!
