New York, Hell's Kitchen, a bar somewhere.
Thick smoke filled some corners, deafening electronic music was played on the high platform, and a group of gorgeous women in bold and sexy clothes swayed their enchanting bodies to the music.
From time to time there would be rude and obscene words mixed in with the women's laughter, and then a guy who didn't look like a good guy would pull the woman to a corner to communicate openly.
In a corner of the bar, there is a sofa placed randomly, but on the table in front of it, there is only an open bottle of red wine and a half-full goblet, revealing an elegance and aloofness that is incompatible with the atmosphere here.
On the sofa, a man wearing an exquisite green suit was lying on his back. His long hair was neatly tied back, revealing a smooth forehead, a thin handsome face, a high nose, deep eye sockets, and a faintly evil smile always hanging at the corner of his mouth. He was none other than Loki.
Loki's eyes were pitch black, like black holes of Galactus's light in the dim light, seeming to be looking at other places through space.
"Let me see, Arale Bishop of Divine Revelation Temple, um... the irritable little girl, Erik... is it the same race as Li Ge... Magneto?"
"And Nick Fury, a cunning mortal!"
"It's really jealous Li Ge, so many people believe in you!"
"It's a pity that a good show was stopped."
"And here, Avengers's actions don't seem to be going well either. Baron Zemo is hiding in Nine Heavens and can't come out."
"Oh... a little witch... um... can predict things through dreams, and a smoke boy...White Ghost... interesting!"
"Hmm... what is that thing on Avengers's body? It seems to be a kind of liquid metal?"
"Are these liquid metals so powerful and ever-changing?"
"Oh...Subordinate God of Li Ge, Tony, this annoying guy, I didn't expect him to apologize, interesting, so interesting!"
"Aha, a soldier sent to his death!"
Loki picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip, but the images of Divine Revelation Temple and Avengers in Sokovia flashed through his eyes at the same time.
His eyes emitted a strange light, which was black and gray, mixed with green light.
If it were before, this would definitely shock the people in the bar.
But now, those who saw the abnormality in Loki's eyes secretly observed him with awe and fear on their faces.
Nine Heavens has been open for several months, and people have become accustomed to being able to see the existence with the power of Transcendent anytime and anywhere.
If it were just Perfect Body Realm, people would at most be envious and then work hard to complete their own trials.
And once they see a strange light or strange changes begin to appear on their body, people will know that this is a strong man who has successfully gained power in Second Heaven, and is a person walking in the realm of Transcendent.
Whenever such a person appears, people will only feel awe and fear.
Second Heaven's method of obtaining power is much more painful than First Heaven's. You need to endure the pain of elements or other forces infecting your body and Soul Stone, and you have to endure five more painful baptisms, each time taking longer and longer.
Before that, the Heaven Ascension Battlefield trial of First Heaven entering Second Heaven also ensured that those who can enter Second Heaven must have qualified combat capabilities, and there will never be those who have power but cannot use it.
Therefore, there are really many people in the Perfect Body Realm world in the world now, but those who can successfully enter Second Heaven are still the elite among the elite.
The strange light in Loki's eyes is undoubtedly telling those who see it that this is a master.
The power that Second Heaven can obtain has long been spread in the world, and the most special Tenth Domain among Ten Domains has also entered the eyes of those who are interested.
Through some circulating news, people know that basically any power can be obtained from Tenth Domain, and each one is weirder and more powerful than the last.
And this bar happened to have such a knowledgeable boss. He could tell at a glance that the strange light in Loki's eyes did not belong to the nine elements, but most likely came from the strange power of Tenth Domain.
As a gang boss and someone who successfully entered Second Heaven, he understands the power and weirdness of Tenth Domain better than his younger brothers.
Heaven Ascension Battlefield has always been placed in the sky of Second Heaven, and there are always some confident people who want to enter Third Heaven as soon as possible.
And Heaven Ascension Battlefield is completely open to everyone, and this gang boss likes to watch other people's trials.
However, Li Ge requires that every time you watch other people's trials, you need to pay some points from the Samsara Realm as the trialist's reward. This is the benefit that Li Ge gives to the trialists.
This forces many people who like to watch the trials to frequently enter Samsara Realm to challenge the dungeon to gain points, which passively improves their combat effectiveness and makes more and more people participate in the Heaven Ascension Battlefield trials.
The gang boss once watched the trial of another person who he thought had obtained the ability to control sand from Tenth Domain - he did not know that it was actually Sandman.
The gang boss was deeply impressed by his powerful ability to transform his body into sand at will, condense a huge sand body, control sand waves, and ignore physical attacks.
After realizing that Loki was extraordinary, the gang boss immediately secretly warned other people in the bar not to provoke Loki.
Of course Loki couldn't hide the little moves of those people in the bar, especially in this dark environment with shadows everywhere.
However, Loki didn't care about their secret observation. In his eyes, another scene replaced the scene in the temple and the castle.
"State of Mexico... Kingpin... an ambitious guy, maybe I can ask him to provide me with some extra people, such as... some disobedient subordinates?"
Through Shadow Ninja and Loki, who had the same vision as their own, they observed with great interest the various actions of Kingpin in the city of State of Mexico.
Seeing the rednecks who were forcibly suppressed by Kingpin, the gang members who did not surrender to him, and even some original armed personnel, Loki's mind began to become active.
Since getting Shadow Ring from Li Ge, Loki has been secretly arresting gangsters or super villains everywhere and transforming them into Shadow Ninja who obey his orders.
The more Shadow Ninja there are and the more powerful they are, the bigger the Shadow World contained in Shadow Ring will be, and as the master of Shadow Ring, he will be able to get more power in return.
"This world is really great. I like those super villains. They are going to die anyway, so why not die in my Shadow Ring!"
It was transformed into Shadow Ninja. It is not wrong to say that he is dead. After all, Shadow Ninja no longer has his own consciousness.
"Ta..."
Loki gently placed the empty wine glass on the table and decided to go and have a good chat with Kingpin.
His eyes returned to normal color, but the shadow under his feet suddenly came to life. Loki sat quietly, letting the shadow engulf his body, with an evil smile still hanging on the corner of his mouth.
On the middle finger of his right hand, a golden dragon coiled around a black ring flashed a red light in its eyes.
Following the mysterious disappearance of Loki, a strong man whom the gang boss had specifically told not to mess with, the bar suddenly became quiet for a moment, and the women and rude men who were still squirming unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, the music continued, the twisting continued, the rude swearing continued, and even the light became brighter.
