Hollow Earth! Polaris's Betrayal!
An unnamed island.
The atmosphere was terribly oppressive.
However.
Faced with their mission, the Eternals showed no sign of backing down, their eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
Ikaris made the first move, his eyes blazing with intense golden light, like laser beams, which pierced through the sky!
Clang!
Two beams of thermal energy, accompanied by a deafening roar, struck the Juggernaut's body, violently repelling it.
But it didn't leave any scars!
The burly giant grinned maliciously, then immediately lifted a nearby rock and hurled it at Ikaris!
Ikaris dodged to the side, immediately feeling extremely surprised.
"They're all top-tier Mutant?"
"What if Apocalypse becomes the next Thinker..."
"They will likely all shake Arishem's position!"
A hint of worry flashed in Sersi's beautiful eyes.
After all, she was well aware of the terrifying power of Celestial Technology.
The pyramid that Apocalypse obtained was based on the previous generation and possessed the ability to transfer souls!
Once Apocalypse possesses the body of the Thinker, he could potentially rival Arishem and, through this Celestial Pyramid, seize everything belonging to Arishem!
Apocalypse will also transform into Supreme Celestial!
And thus, to dominate all the Cosmic Celestial!
Even if Apocalypse didn't say it explicitly, the Eternals knew it perfectly well.
This God of Mutants has always longed for immortality!
So...
Only Druig can control slaves and put the Apocalypse into a deep sleep.
As time went by, the number of Mutant increased day by day, and their various bizarre abilities indirectly strengthened the image of the God in the Bible!
Even the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse under Apocalypse are so powerful.
Moreover, what about Apocalypse himself?
"Phastos."
"It seems we should contact the Squadron Supreme."
The Sprite looks just like a little girl, but as Eternals, she is at least seven thousand years old!
Faced with the overwhelming force of Apocalypse, the Sprite realized that things were going badly and urgently needed the support of the Squadron Supreme!
To the Squadron Supreme.
As a super squad favored by the Supreme Celestial.
I have personally experienced Divine Awakening countless times!
"Sprite."
"The Squadron Supreme is not the same Squadron Supreme it used to be."
Kingo's expression was complicated.
The Eternals not absolute allies, let alone have any mutual trust.
Everyone is loyal only to the Supreme Celestial Arishem!
Perhaps Arishem has other plans for the Squadron Supreme, and it's not just about protecting the Thinker.
"Polaris."
"Activate your abilities and open the entrance to the Hollow Earth."
Apocalypse's eyes were deep and profound.
He had waited for this moment for far too long!
When he becomes the next Thinker, he will go directly to Sokovia and plunder everything Chen Ji has built!
Only he can lead Mutant to greatness!
"Yes, sir."
Lorna Dane, the Polaris, has short, emerald-green hair that falls over her shoulders. She is tall and alluring, with exquisite and pretty features, and her skin is surrounded by a dazzling aurora.
As Magneto's daughter, she inherited his talent: the ability to control natural magnetic Magneto!
Furthermore, this innate ability was amplified by the Apocalypse!
She had long sensed the Celestial Body slumbering beneath the island!
After all, Vibranium is also a type of metal!
As Polaris waves its jade finger...
The invisible electromagnetic energy instantly penetrated beneath the earth's surface, touching a colossal body a million feet tall, with a bronze-colored surface, resembling a bronze giant!
And these are the remains of Augus, the Thinker Celestial!
Although the soul has perished, the Celestial Body still retains vitality, like a plant god, silently slumbering deep within the earth's core!
Boom!
Rumble!!
The earth continued to split open, countless ocean whirlpools rose out of nowhere, and towering waves crashed against the shore, accompanied by bursts of explosions!
It felt like the entire Earth was shaking violently!
It has spread to almost every corner of the world!
Various natural disasters erupted one after another.
Typhoons, tsunamis, earthquakes, torrential rains!
But no one knew the truth!
Suddenly, an Abyss abyss-like rift opened up, like Sky Pit, leading directly to the Earth's core!
The massive, turbulent energy surge transformed into a dazzling beam of light, soaring into the sky!
The raging Celestial Power also caused a sense of unease among everyone. The entire Eternals was shocked, but it was too late to stop it!
Abomination has already taken its place in front of this Sky Pit!
"You will not stop my lord."
His face was contorted with Abomination, and he was utterly ruthless.
He was robust and imposing, as majestic as a mountain!
It's in no way inferior to the Juggernaut!
Then, he slammed his hands together, instantly creating a shockwave that, like a powerful storm, knocked over the rapidly running Makkari!
"Only we are worthy of being called Eternity."
The Viper was stunningly beautiful, yet like a poisonous rose, its green bodysuit accentuating its graceful curves.
Her figure is as beautiful as a supermodel.
Immediately, she exhaled a breath containing a deadly neurotoxin, which rapidly spread forward.
It enveloped the small island almost instantly!
Gilgamesh, surrounded by the poisonous fog, felt his mind become sluggish, and his thoughts slowed down for a moment!
Meanwhile, the Juggernaut rushed in front of him, grabbed Gilgamesh's head with its large hand, and hurled it fiercely at Ikaris!
Bang!
Gilgamesh and Ikaris collided suddenly and fell into the endless ocean currents.
At the same time.
Apocalypse also strode forward, slowly walking into the Abyss, into a bizarre and fantastical spatial vortex!
Wherever he went, matter was constantly collapsing, disintegrating, and reorganizing.
The rocks and soil gradually transformed into a staircase for him to walk on.
The Celestial Pyramid also shone with brilliant light.
Like a lantern, it guided the way forward, illuminating Apocalypse's face with flickering light and shadow, his eyes sparkling with excitement—his dream was finally about to be realized!
When he reappears, he will become the next Thinker, a true Titled Celestial!
"No!"
"Stop him!"
Ajak, Sersi, her pupils contracted violently.
If Apocalypse becomes the New Gods, then the entire planet will likely crumble and all living beings will be wiped out!
This goes against their original intentions!
The Divine Awakening.
It will inevitably lead to the deaths of billions of lives on Earth.
Even though Ikaris didn't care, Ajak and Sersi's views on human civilization had already undergone a subtle change.
Human civilization should not be extinguished!
But who can stop the Apocalypse?
I'm afraid the Squadron Supreme definitely won't show up!
After all, whoever becomes the Thinker will bring rich rewards to the Cosmic Celestial, Supreme Celestial will be happy to see it happen, so why would they interfere?
Perhaps...
Behind Apocalypse's actions was Arishem's tacit approval; he wanted Apocalypse to become Celestials!
But Arishem did not understand Apocalypse.
Once Apocalypse becomes Celestials, his next goal will likely be to replace Arishem!
Calling it the greatest threat to the universe is no exaggeration!
"This is the Celestial Body..."
"That's spectacular!"
"And he'll be mine soon!"
A glint of light flashed in Apocalypse's eyes.
He has now arrived in the Hollow Earth!
Looking ahead, he saw the Celestial Body half-squatting, half-sitting, fast asleep.
My heart couldn't help but race with excitement!
This Celestial Body has reached maturity and is in its complete form, clad in sturdy bronze armor, radiating endless divine light.
Even without any movement, Polaris felt a chill run down its spine, as if its pet had encountered a natural enemy, and a surge of fear welled up within it!
"The Earth's core..."
There's another world?
"How should I inform my father...?"
Polaris's beautiful eyes trembled.
She was awestruck by the vastness and grandeur of the Hollow Earth!
It's like a primitive, ancient Earth!
It has both atmosphere and light source.
There are also vast stretches of mountains and lakes.
Looking up into the distance, one can see towering, white skeletons lying across the desolate plain.
A deafening roar could be heard from time to time!
This was completely beyond her comprehension!
Even the Polaris can be seen, and the mountains seem to be moving. Upon closer inspection, one discovers...
That wasn't a mountain or a river; it was a Titan Beasts!
Its shape closely resembles a mammoth, with long, fine hair that hangs to the ground. When it takes a step, it causes the earth to shake.
Wisps of smoke rose from chimneys, suggesting that in this Hollow Earth, there were not only Titan Beasts but also traces of civilization!
It's like a scene from a science fiction movie!
"The Hollow Earth..."
You can think of it as a secret realm on a planet.
"This is also the growth space for the Celestials embryo to evolve."
Apocalypse explained with a smile.
He had already learned of the existence of the Hollow Earth while inside the Celestial Pyramid.
Even the various creatures in the Hollow Earth draw upon the Celestial Power to possess Titans -like bodies, which will then become his army!
Sweep the entire Earth for him!
"Planetary Secret Realm?"
Polaris frowned slightly.
I also felt extreme anxiety deep down.
She had been working undercover in the Apocalypse Dynasty, passing on classified information to Magneto.
But under these circumstances, she had no time to be distracted and could not fool Apocalypse!
Then we can only do it during the soul transfer ritual...
The ceremony was forcibly interrupted!
Only by destroying this Celestial Pyramid can we prevent the Apocalypse's conspiracy from succeeding!
"Polaris."
"Please remember to protect me during the ceremony."
Apocalypse waved his hand.
Suddenly, a stone bed appeared out of thin air in front of them.
Various mysterious patterns and wonderful designs immediately appeared.
Apocalypse lay on the stone bed, and saw the pyramid emitting a brilliant light, which immediately caused the Thinker's body to tremble, and the possession officially began!
During the soul transfer ritual, there must be no external interference.
Otherwise, the ritual will fail, and the Apocalypse may backfire; this is the rule of soul transfer!
Polaris blinked her beautiful eyes.
Seeing Apocalypse close his eyes, she decisively raised her slender hand and unleashed an electromagnetic storm!
She wants to destroy this Celestial Pyramid!
The ceremony was abruptly halted!
We must Apocalypse back into slumber!
Boom!
The Celestial Pyramid roared, instantly unleashing a torrent of energy that caused the entire Earth's core to tremble!
Large cracks spread in all directions.
The bricks and stones kept breaking!
The Polaris was startled and terrified.
It was immediately discovered that her attack had not caused any real harm, but had instead alarmed Apocalypse!
"Polaris..."
"So you weren't truly loyal all along?"
Apocalypse suddenly opened its eyes.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes!
He had been betrayed by slaves.
Past memories resurfaced in his mind, instantly igniting a murderous intent within him!
Moment!
Despite the backlash, Apocalypse's face contorted with rage as he unleashed a beam of energy!
This beam of energy, as powerful as thunder, swept through everything in its path, almost tearing apart the veil of space, and crashed towards Polaris!
Polaris raised his hand and created an electromagnetic shield.
But the shield shattered instantly!
She fell far away like a kite with a broken string, blood trickling from her lips, her face full of resentment!
Then, the rocks turned into cement, instantly trapping her.
Apocalypse's eyes were extremely cold, and a hint of aloof arrogance emanated from them.
"I'll let you see it for yourself..."
"How can I become the next Thinker Celestial!"
Apocalypse's eyes flashed with a cold light.
He then lay down on the stone bed again and reawakened the Celestial Pyramid, attempting to transfer his soul to the Celestial Body!
And once the ceremony is complete...
The slumbering Thinker Celestial, will Divine Awakening once more!
Destroy the Earth!
This can be done at this time.
A portal to another dimension opened out of thin air.
Three lithe figures passed through the door in turn, their faces showing amusement as they examined the Hollow Earth.
A hint of admiration rose in his eyes.
"So there are hidden realms deep within the earth?"
"This is unexpected."
A cheerful, magnetic voice rang out.
Polaris's beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
Seeing this figure appear, tears immediately welled up in her eyes, realizing that she was saved!
"List!"
"I am Magneto's daughter!"
"Attempts to stop Apocalypse's soul transfer failed!"
Polaris hurriedly said.
Before he could finish speaking...
But this also awakened Apocalypse once again!
The God of Mutants narrowed his eyes, an overwhelming aura of ferocity emanating from him, and clenched his fists even tighter!
The repeated obstruction infuriated Apocalypse. It seemed that only by dealing with Chen Ji could the ceremony be successfully completed!
"Apocalypse."
"I'm so glad to finally see you."
"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early."
"It seems to have affected your plans?"
Chen Ji raised the corners of his mouth.
The moment he sensed the vibration, he realized something was wrong.
It was also immediately transmitted to the source of the tremor, this vast inner Earth space!
The Hollow Earth is like Ta Lo Secret Realm.
However, it presents a primitive appearance, with traces of dinosaurs' existence as well as the presence of various ancient creatures.
You can also see all sorts of exotic flowers and rare plants, as well as magical potions recorded in the Book of Arcane Arts!
It's practically an undiscovered paradise!
Why was it completely unnoticed beforehand?
Even Kamar-Taj has no related documentation!
But this excited him immensely!
With the magical potions provided by the Earth's core and the flesh and blood materials from the Titan Beasts, the Sequence Cultivation System can be perfected!
Certainly.
What Chen Ji values most is still the Celestial Body before him!
Huge!
Sacred!
Although it lacks spirituality and thought, its value cannot be concealed!
"This is the Cosmic Celestial?"
Doctor Doom's pupils contracted.
This was the first time he had ever seen Celestials!
A living Celestials!
Even without Chen Ji's reminder, his vision and knowledge alone were enough to recognize the value of this body!
If only I could possess this unclaimed Celestial Body...
