Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

"Yes. They can reveal their fangs anytime," Maleina said with a frown. "They have such a big force of Empyrean-order and two Reverend-order powerhouses. If they can, then they will definitely bring more slaves and people for their benefit."

Suddenly, everyone sensed a powerhouse aura approaching them. They sensed it because those auras were deliberately directing their intent toward the Island, at Erix, and others who were inside.

This Blessed Island was not in Phoenix City at the moment. Instead, it was floated over a mountain range on the eastern continent.

They've been changing the Island's position once or twice a day for the past five days, though with Erix's space network, it wasn't a problem for anyone on the Island to go anywhere anytime.

There were portals throughout the Blessed Island for every guild and clan, and some big structures were built on the Island like Spirit Training Hall, Central Palace for work and tasks management, Alchemy Palace, and Magsmith Palace. There was also a hidden warehouse where Lilith and Amu had created the arcane crystal runes and sigils for 493 defensive formations.

The island had exotic biomes everywhere, but it was starting to look filled in many of those areas.

The three people arrived and floated outside the island, their gazes and senses observing people on it, but soon their senses were blocked as Erix activated Blessed Island's passive functions of the barrier-pool.

"I can't believe these rif-raffs got a Blessed Island, hahaha. Lucky indeed."

The one who spoke was a slim man in a white suit and black tie, wearing red glass specs. He had a blond-haired ponytail and looked in his late twenties.

"Maze, don't say that. You were also a rif-raf of a lower world like them," said the only woman in this group of three. She had snake-like black hair and dark blue eyes, wearing a black tight dress with a belt at her waist and sparkling embroidery designs of dark colors on her dress.

She thought she looked beautiful, but she looked like a creep with her big and dark part under her eyes.

"Come on, Kristy," Maze rolled his eyes.

"They look promising."

Maze and Kristy looked at their last companion in the group with a speechless expression.

"Old man Barak, don't you go and hold back in this task," Maze snorted. "Even if the boss wants new subordinates, we don't. We are here to beat them and show them their place, so do that part please."

Barak was a brown-beared man with a plain gray robe and a white cloth belt at his waist. He was a muscular hunk with big arms with 7 feet of height.

Erix appeared in front of them, right outside the Blessed Island's barrier.

"Gutsy," Maze removed his specs and looked at Erix with raised eyebrows. "You know you are outside of any protection and can be killed."

Erix raised his eyebrows before he faintly smiled, "I am not standing in front of a Reverend-order powerhouse."

"Not bad," Barak nodded with a smile. "Our boss said he told you to consider joining us. We are here for that."

"If you can prove your worth, you'll get a higher position and treatment," Kirsty said with an indifferent expression. "Gather your strongest five people and come out. We have two important spots to fill, so if you are worthy, we'll choose two of you."

Whatever they said was of course getting relayed to Rin and others in live. They could it on a spatial screen made of space matter.

'Rin, let's remember these bitches. We'll look down on them like this later,' Erix internally snorted.

'That's right. Do you see those eyes? They are fucking treating us like trash,' Rin grunted.

'Except that big guy,' Kenshin said with a cough. 'He looks strongest.'

'Anyway, we have to comply with them and show that we are with them,' Lilith said. 'They want to test five people so, Rin, I, Lily, and…'

'I want to go,' Kenshin grinned.

'Alright. This will also be a good opportunity to expand our horizons,' Lilith said with a wry smile.

Outside, Erix nodded at them, "We are ready, but we will battle inside the Blessed Island, in a separate pocket dimension."

"Oh? You have a pocket dimension?" Barak asked in surprise.

"Yeah, I recently made a breakthrough in Space element and managed to find one after learning a new power of space element," Erix said as he floated back, passing through the barrier and entering the Blessed Island while waving his hand to create a portal before the trio. "This will lead to the pocket dimension. The other four people are already there."

Indeed, Erix broke through to 5th realm in Space element while he was creating spatial formation at the hollow spot under 1000 kilometers after he was done creating one for the Blessed Island. He had to make two ends of the formations so that the Blessed Island could go from one spatial formation to another.

He got this enlightenment on the 2nd day and unknowingly spent the next two days in meditation, acquiring an unexpected boost of power.

"Did you anchor this pocket dimension with Blessed Island?" Maze asked with narrowed eyes.

"Obviously," Erix laughed. "What if we accidentally die during your test?"

Maze grinned, "You were right to do that."

'This brat is too confident because he is the top dog here. Let's show them what the real top dogs outside of Mystic Root's influence look like,' Maze sneered.

Maze, Barak, and Kirsty entered the portal and arrived in the pocket dimension which was a sky sparkling with aurora and an array of yellow stars at one spot that illuminated the world. Each pocket dimension was a natural and closed system of the cosmos, able to produce a life of exotic nature according to its core.

Rin, Lilith, Lily, and Kenshin floated several meters above the vast grassy plain while Maze, Kristy, and Barak also arrived before them as they floated a kilometer away.

Erix shortly arrived and floated beside the group.

Seeing him arriving, Barak said with a light laugh while his words echoed far, "The test is rather simple. One by one, you will pick one of us and fight. The others will simply watch."

"The fight will end when you give up," Maze grinned. "Well, you will also die but since you have prepared for revives, we'll be lenient and won't kill your soul so you can resurrect. Worry not."

"Who will come forward first?" Kristy asked, her tone indifferent. "Let's begin and finish it fast because I personally don't believe any of you are worthy."

'Too much yapping,' Rin was annoyed. 'I know they are powerful, but we are not sitting ducks. Let's show them what we got.'

"Let's start with me," Kenshin said with a smile, his gaze on Barak.

Before he could speak, Barak disappeared and arrived before Kenshin, stretching his hand, "Barak of Martial Gray."

Kenshin nodded, shaking his hand, "Kenshin…of Unbound Martial."

"Did you just make that up?" Barak blinked.

"Yes," Kenshin grinned.

"Hahahaha," Barak laughed out loud before he nodded, "I shall allow you three moves because I want to make an observation."

He cupped his fist and did a martial bow with a smile. "Let's begin."
