From Prisoner to Si Chen

As Angel finished speaking, Jilan noticed that He was flapping the wings on his back, and dense white feathers floated down from the sky.

It seemed like heavy snow fell from the sky, tens of millions of them.

"In this heavy test, the tester needs to identify the luminous feathers and capture them. If seven 'light feathers' are missed, it will be a failure. Only next year can he come back to challenge again."

The sweet female voice echoed again.

Ji Lan did not respond, because his attention was focused on the top of his head... It was estimated that the flying feathers in the sky would land in less than ten seconds.

He realized that the first challenge of the "Lion's Gate" was to test the gnosis and speed of the tester.

Only extremely high gnosis can identify the few luminous creatures hidden among the feathers in the sky, and only extremely fast speed can accurately capture them before they hit the ground.

If one of these two items is held back, it will be difficult to pass this test... Of course, if there are special means, they can also be used. After all, Angel has not banned it.

‘Attribute reconstruction. ’

Jilan followed the principle of trying his best when a lion fights a rabbit, and silently recited it in his heart.

With the activation of the original ability, he extracted four of his comprehensive and perfect attributes, namely strength, endurance, spirituality and mind, and took 25 attribute points each, gaining 100 free attribute points.

Then they were added to agility and gnosis respectively, so that both attributes reached 100 points.

Gillan suddenly discovered that his already extremely keen perception had increased again, reaching a terrifying level.

His eyes were as bright as fire and his senses were fully open.

In an instant, among the thousands of feathers falling all over the sky, he discovered a few feathers that were extremely difficult to identify and emitted a faint light.

‘There are a total of 77,000 feathers, among which one hundred “light feathers” are hidden. ’

Jilan learned the information through perception and thought to himself.

‘There are eight seconds left, which is enough. ’

While thinking about it, he finally moved.

His figure flashed, he jumped into the air, and used alchemy to make a stone pedal out of thin air, and he kept moving around.

In just three seconds, Ji Lan had already grasped the hundred "Light Feathers" in his hands.

But when he just landed, the sweet female voice sounded again:

"Mr. Guillain Iros, you are so clean and tidy, but the test is not over yet."

When Angel finished speaking.

In Jilan's perception, he suddenly discovered that among the flying feathers in the sky, there were another hundred feathers emitting a faint light.

'besides? ’

His eyes narrowed.

But this time, Jilan had a new idea. He didn't catch the "Light Feather" in the air with speed. Instead, he put his hands together and said calmly:

"Refining!"

Immediately, he raised his hand, and dense transparent silk threads flew out from his palm, radiating in all directions.

Whoosh whoosh——

These threads accurately hit the hundred "light feathers" falling in mid-air, penetrated and captured them, and then suddenly recovered them.

call out! !

Jilan closed his palms and grasped all the silk threads and feathers.

This time, it took less than a second!

Wow! !

The petite and charming angel landed on the ground with its wings flapping, a look of surprise on its delicate and lovely face.

"What an amazing reaction and method! Among the ascended people who have passed through the Lion's Gate in the past, there are few who can handle it better than you!"

Angel clapped her hands and said with a smile:

"Congratulations, Mr. Gilan Iros, you passed the first test."

The feathers all over the sky finally fell, and the two of them bathed in it. Under the bright sunshine, the scene was quite dreamy.

Ji Lan silently took off his hat and saluted the girl angel.

Angel said with a smile on her face:

"So, sir, we are about to face the second test. Are you ready?"

"No problem, let's get started."

Gillan nodded.

Hearing this, Angel's smile did not change, but she raised her white and tender little hands, clasping her hands together and interlacing her fingers in a praying gesture.

He opened his mouth slightly and said:

"The second test, the burning of the golden lion."

Buzz! !

After finishing speaking, the circle of light above Angel's head suddenly burst into dazzling golden light!

As the light shone, a phantom of a male lion actually formed in the sky above it. The light was scorching, and the hair on its body was swaying like flames. Its shape was extremely majestic and oppressive.

"roar!!"

This golden lion raised its head and roared, making a deafening sound.

At the same time, a golden-red flame that covered the sky and sun escaped from his body, shrouding Jilan head-on!

"This severe test requires the tester to undergo the baptism of holy light for seven minutes. Please note that the holy light has dual damage to the body and spirit. If you cannot bear it, you can stop in time... If you fail to hold on, there will be Risk of death.”

Angel reminded her kindly with a holy smile on her face in the posture of a young girl praying.

Jilan raised her hand to touch her chest and bowed in return.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for informing me."

After finishing speaking, he had already recited silently in his heart:

‘Attribute reconstruction. ’

Jilan restored the temporarily increased attributes, and then allocated attribute points to add to endurance and spirituality, causing these two attributes to temporarily break through to 100 points.

Almost the next second.

boom! !

The dazzling golden-red flame formed a beam of light and struck Jilan's body, immediately setting his clothes on fire.

His expression became stern.

A terrifying high temperature locked him tightly, and the flames continued to burn his body and spirit.

However, under Jilan's unreasonable attribute panel, this baptism of holy light from the apostle "Dusk" only made him feel hot and sweaty, without even a tingling sensation.

Seeing this, Jilan also breathed a sigh of relief.

"The beauty of numbers" never let him down.

A smile gradually appeared on his face.

"Huh?!" Angel raised her pretty eyebrows, opened her mouth slightly, and showed an incredible expression. "He... he doesn't seem to be in pain, but rather enjoys it?!"

His eyes stayed on the purple-eyed young man, noticing that he was in the golden-red holy light, his whole body burning, not only did he not suffer like the previous trialists, screaming, but instead looked like he was taking a hot shower, showing a comfortable expression.

Angel was both surprised and puzzled.

The difficulty of the second trial "Golden Lion's Burn" is much higher than the first trial "Feather Picker's Sorrow". Under the baptism of holy light, it is extremely difficult for the 6th-level Jiushi to bear. Often, only one of the ten trialists who participated in the ascension ceremony can barely withstand it.

Although ascension is difficult, the difficulty of July's "Lion's Gate" is one of the most difficult among the twelve roads.

The performance of "Red Sage" Jilan Ilos really amazed Angel.

Originally, He thought that Jilan had used some means to avoid the baptism of holy light, but as time went by, the other party's relaxed expression remained, not like a disguise.

At this point, Angel understood-

There is no false reputation under the reputation!

"Red Sage" Jilan Ilos is worthy of being hailed as the strongest man of the contemporary era. Even if the path he took was the furnace sword and he was an alchemist, he did not have any shortcomings.

This is a perfect Jiushi.

His ability is far beyond the difficulty of the trial.

"No wonder Germain said that he wanted to pass through the twelve gates of ascension one by one, gain enlightenment and open up a new path... Such a great man may not appear for thousands of years. Perhaps, one day in the future, he can really ascend to the new February Sichen?"

Angel couldn't help but have such an absurd idea.

At the same time.

In various areas of the "Corridor", the superiors of various camps also silently lowered their eyes in the dark and watched the entire July Ascension Ceremony.

When they saw Gillan Iros in the holy light, unharmed, and in a state of spring breeze, they were all surprised.

"As expected of my brother, haha!"

On the plateau, Tsaiel laughed heartily. The giant minotaur standing beside him watching the ceremony was also quite surprised and said in a muffled voice:

"In the long years, there are probably only a few people who can be so relaxed and casual in the Ascension Ceremony... When I passed through the 'Gate of Aries', I went through a bloody battle and almost lost a layer of skin!"

"I was the same!"

Tsaiel shook his head and sighed.

"The Ascension Ceremony is a natural barrier on the 'Road of the Fire Sword'. Countless heroes from ancient times to the present have been stuck at this step, unable to ascend, and left in the mortal world, aging in reluctance and regret, and finally turned into a handful of dust."

He still remembered that when he was still a mortal, he had already attracted the attention of Mr. Mars, the "Gladiator" of March Sichen, and was given the "Apostle Mark".

Originally, he thought he was the protagonist of the era and was very confident in his own strength... But when it came to the Ascension Ceremony, Tsaiel suffered a heavy blow.

Because the difficulty of the trial is very high, if He had not relied on His iron-like fighting spirit and the combat skills that He had perfected after thousands of trials in the mortal world, He would probably have found it difficult to pass.

Even so, Tessell knew that the difficulty of "Lion's Gate" was even higher than that of "Aries Gate"!

This shows how outrageous Gillan Ilos's performance was, otherwise it would not have shocked the two March Apostles.

The reactions of Tessell and Taunos were consistent with those of the superiors of other months, including Avril, Pablo, Sasha, Sadie, Anthony, Germain, Jorah, Yasirs, Herman, Agni... and other apostles, as well as transmuters and ascenders, all of whom had a high evaluation of the "Red Sage" in their hearts.

Especially the friendly superiors of the "Remnant King" camp.

The better Gillan performed, the happier they were.

Seven minutes passed quickly.

The light column shrouding Gillan slowly dissipated.

The golden-red flames burning on his body went out.

Jilan still stood there with his white cane, smiling, as if the baptism of holy light just now was just an illusion.

"Mr. Jilan, congratulations, you have passed the second test."

Angel said softly with a complex look in his eyes.

He was silent for a moment.

"Next, it will be the third test, which is also the last test... Before that, I want to ask you, do you have a firm belief in your pursuit of truth?"

"Why does Miss Angel ask this?"

Jilan asked curiously.

The lovely girl with white wings answered hesitantly:

"Because those who are not firm in their beliefs will definitely die in this test..."

"I see."

Jilan nodded and grinned:

"Of course!"

After that, he silently said in his heart:

'Save. '

A silhouette of phantom emerged from him and stayed where it was, and Jilan felt relieved.

He did this not because he was unconfident.

It's just to ensure that everything is safe and to leave yourself a way out.

At least, that's what Gilan thought.

"Since you have a firm belief, that's good."

Angel nodded.

He raised his little face and looked at Gilan, but his expression changed from the previous smile to solemn.

"In the name of God's 'Sword Angel', I ask the trialist Gilan Iros for the last time, the last test of the July Ascension Ceremony, are you ready?"

"Let's start!"

Gilan responded loudly.

Buzz! !

Angel raised his right hand.

There was a roar.

The light column fell from the sky and finally gathered in his little hand, forming a flame-shaped sword like a snake, and the sword body burned with dazzling golden fire.

This is the original appearance of the "Sword Angel"!

As the most warlike angel under Omer, Angel's strength is not simple.

At this moment, his eyes burst into golden light, and his whole temperament changed from the original cute and quiet to aggressive and oppressive.

The terrifying momentum surged past like a raging sea.

Jilan narrowed his eyes, and instinctively put down his cane and inserted it into the ground to stabilize his center of gravity.

The whistling wind blew past, and the bright sky dimmed.

"The third test, the heart of the martyr."

Angel's voice became cold.

"I will cut you with a sword, and this sword will cause great disaster to your soul. Only by resisting it can the ascension ceremony be successfully concluded... Otherwise, you will die on the spot."

"Okay." Jilan's face was normal.

He secretly activated "attribute repair" again, adjusted the attributes, and added all the extracted attribute points to the soul column.

Under the maximum blessing.

Jilan's soul attribute has reached "175"!

What an exaggerated value is this?

Even he himself doesn't know.

Maybe...

Even the 7th-level ascender can't reach it.

Even the 8th level Transmutator can't achieve it!

This is already the spiritual strength of the apostle level!

Boom——

Angel has already grasped the sword with both hands and swung it down suddenly!

The flame-shaped sword chopped out a light curtain!

Instantly, it hit Jilan!

The sword light passed through Jilan's eyebrows, leaving a fine golden mark in the center of his face.

The overwhelming mysterious shock wave converged at one point and crushed Jilan's spiritual kingdom.

However...

Jilan was only stunned for a moment at first, and his eyes regained their spirits, looking at Angel who was still swinging the sword without changing his expression.

"Miss Angel, is the trial over?"

"..."

The girl with flames all over her body was stunned.

After a long while.

He then uttered:

"Ah?"

The purple-eyed young man in front of him took his sword hard, but he was like nothing happened? !

Moreover, how long has it been?

One second?

He regained consciousness in less than a second?

How strong is this guy's mind? ! !

Angel roared inwardly, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Clang!

He couldn't help but loosen his grip, and the flame-shaped sword fell.
