Xin Zhao got his wish and saw the true face of Aatrox.
And almost at the moment when the black mist surged and the Darkin appeared, Xin Zhao understood why Aatrox said that "mortals should not see their true appearance."
What kind of body is this?
The dark, twisted flesh was gathered together in a form that was unbearable to look at, and spliced into this ten-foot body.
Under the rough skin, the winding blood vessels were like twisting snakes and insects, swelling and contracting with Aatrox's movements.
Even if Aatrox held his head high when he walked out of the black mist, even if Aatrox's scary face was full of pride, even if Aatrox's body was strong and powerful, after seeing his appearance, Xin Zhao,
It's hard to feel even a shred of reverence in my heart. Power comes from strength, but in Xin Zhao's eyes, Aatrox is a completely depraved, twisted, and dilapidated existence. He belongs to the type who is not a good person at first glance.
Even someone as strong-willed as Xin Zhao could not help but be frightened when he saw Aatrox for the first time. If ordinary people saw Aatrox, I am afraid that as he said, the greatest terror would be born.
.
Is this the dark descendant?
Xin Zhao tried hard to calm down his breathing, held the spear with both hands, assumed a horizontal stance, and silently accumulated his strength - after seeing Aatrox's true appearance, he had clearly realized
The gap between them has reached a point, but as he said before, his next challenger is Aatrox. The battle has not yet begun, and he does not need to admit defeat.
For Xin Zhao, there is only one chance to challenge Aatrox. If he can't take advantage of Aatrox not raising the black sword and hit it with the first strike, he may never have a chance in the subsequent battle.
Thinking of this, Xin Zhao narrowed his eyes and locked his eyes on Aatrox's knee joint. There was a gap where flesh and blood connected. It was the perfect target for his thrust.
Aatrox noticed Xin Zhao's thoughts, but he did not prepare for it. For him, victory in this battle was inevitable. He hoped to see the upper limit of this interesting mortal and take action now.
, Xin Zhao’s condition may not be able to withstand his casual blow.
Just like this, after a few breaths, Xin Zhao's aura finally reached its peak. His eyes finally no longer squinted, but opened completely. The dark pupils suddenly widened, and the distorted image of Aatrox was reflected in them.
There is nothing but the body.
Finally, Xin Zhao moved.
It is said to be as quiet as a virgin and as moving as a stray rabbit. In just an instant, Zhao Xin went from being motionless and holding his breath to accumulate momentum, locking the target, to raising the gun and stabbing, the tip of the gun turned into a stream of light - only a little cold light arrived first,
Then the gun came out like a dragon!
Xin Zhao's movements were simple and unpretentious, but extremely fast. With his aura locked, the movement of the man and the gun almost happened at the same time as the spear thrust out. When the man came and the gun came, what seemed like a simple movement was actually actually
However, an afterimage appeared, so fast that it could almost deceive people's eyes.
Aatrox's eyes would not be deceived, but he still underestimated Xin Zhao's speed - or in other words, he did not expect that Xin Zhao's body would actually flash with a dazzling magical aura after the spear was thrust out!
This is the purest magical energy. It is the power of nature brought about by every movement after the integration of man and nature. Zhao Xin, who was born in the land of birth, although he was just a fisherman at the beginning, what he learned was only the superficial knowledge of ordinary goods.
Martial arts, but those years in the Noxian Arena allowed him to master all combat skills and gradually move towards the realm of unity between man and nature.
Although Xin Zhao's "unity of man and nature" was only the first glimpse of the door, and he could not make any progress for many years, but with the addition of magical aura, his attacks are no longer pure martial arts, pure physical attacks, and the forbidden power on his body
The magic stone armor has been absorbing and suppressing his magical aura, so even after experiencing the previous battles, Aatrox did not realize that this mortal actually entered the Tao with martial arts, so much so that he shot Xin Zhao at the speed of
A misjudgment occurred.
The dark Darkin Demon Sword slashed hard, but fell into the air. Xin Zhao's full blow stabbed Aatrox's knee joint before the giant sword fell, landing with incomparable precision.
Between the two pieces of flesh that Xin Zhao had previously locked.
After exhausting all his strength, Zhao Xin could no longer hold the spear and fell to the ground. However, what he never expected was that although the spear hit the target, it failed to hit the target.
However, he felt as if he had been stabbed into a solid city wall, and once he penetrated a few inches, he could no longer make any progress - considering Aatrox's body shape, the slight injury was simply not worth mentioning.
Isn’t that a weak place where flesh and blood connect?
Realizing that his all-out attack had failed, Xin Zhao finally showed a bitter smile on his face.
The undefeated Viscero was defeated after all.
The sword was raised again, but Xin Zhao didn't even have the strength to stand up. In this case, he simply closed his eyes and quietly waited for death to come.
However, the expected beheading did not occur.
Just as Xin Zhao closed his eyes, a small bottle was roughly stuffed into his mouth, and then a cool and warm liquid was squeezed into his mouth.
"Swallow it." Aatrox's voice was still proud, but this time it was more solemn. "You have proven yourself. Now that you have crossed the extraordinary threshold, it is time to give up the ordinary struggle and go
See the real world."
Xin Zhao wanted to say something, but the liquid in his mouth poured into his throat uncontrollably. Then, an indescribable bulging feeling began to spread from his abdomen to his limbs. He opened his eyes and stood up suddenly, but
I found that the scene around me was completely different from what I had seen before.
"Welcome to the Land of the Undying." Aatrox's voice sounded again, but this time he spoke another language that was extremely complicated, but that Xin Zhao could understand eerily, "Come, follow me.
Come on, let’s get real together.”

Xin Zhao looked around in confusion. The world seemed to have completely changed in his eyes.
There was nothing in front of him, but Xin Zhao clearly felt that there seemed to be a layer of curtain that separated him from things further away. He squinted his eyes, looked around carefully, and looked outside the curtain carefully, but what happened?
Can't even see clearly.
"Don't look at it. This is the land of the immortal, the kingdom of the dead. The curtain of life and death cuts you off from everything outside. Even if there are people and places you are most familiar with outside, you can't tell."
Xin Zhao blinked his eyes - if this is the land of the immortal, the kingdom of the dead, then is he dead?
In other words, those strange liquids just now are actually some kind of deadly poison?
"You're not dead yet." Aatrox continued, as if he knew exactly what Xin Zhao was thinking, "The water of life will protect your life and give you the ability to briefly walk in this area that does not belong to you.
.”
Water of life?
"After ordinary people come to the land of the immortal, they will encounter the attack of death and quickly change from the living to the dead. However, after extraordinary people drink the water of life, the water of life will bear the loss of vitality first.
Your life will not be affected until the power contained in the water of life is exhausted."
So the water of life is the prerequisite for passage here?
Xin Zhao blinked and couldn't help but glance at the tall Aatrox next to him.
It sounds like a very precious thing. If I want to drink a bottle, how much should Aatrox drink?
"You must have respect for the great existence, mortal." Aatrox seemed to have insight into Xin Zhao's thoughts again, "I am an immortal, a truly immortal person. Immortals will not be eroded by death, let alone be affected by it.
If you have any troubles, you don’t need to drink the water of life like ordinary people.”
"Why do you seem to know what I'm thinking?" Xin Zhao finally couldn't help but ask, "Is this some kind of strange magic or witchcraft?"
"Magic?" Aatrox snorted, "I don't understand that thing at all. I know what you are thinking, but it's just because I have seen too many mortals like you. Although you are silent, you don't think that
Are you hiding your thoughts well?"
Upon hearing this, Xin Zhao lowered his head in embarrassment.
"Don't lower your head, raise your head." Aatrox spoke again, "Come on, it's time for you to see the truth of the world. Where do we start? It's really troublesome. I'm the worst at this stuff..."
Although he was not good at talking about trouble, as Aatrox made a few gestures in mid-air, a scroll appeared out of thin air and slowly unfolded in front of Xin Zhao.
"Let's start with a past incident that I least want to mention, that...what is your name?"
"My name is Xin Zhao."
"Xin Zhao...sounds like an Ionian?" Aatrox curled his lips and looked a little more ferocious, "But it doesn't matter. I'm going to start with Shurima. I hope you know that
Rima.”
"I've heard a little bit about it."
Aatrox stopped talking and instead snorted. At the same time, the scroll in mid-air finally unfolded completely, and a magnificent city appeared on the scroll.
"Once upon a time, the Shurima Empire was a great country." Aatrox's tone was more difficult and somewhat nostalgic. "The Empress Wu and the Regent led the country to transform the desert, study magic, popularize education, and build cities.
, to build the Demonic Network, they did not choose to control secular authority, but transferred power to mortals, allowing them to participate in the operation of this great empire."
Xin Zhao looked at the city on the scroll, at the various incredible animals and plants, at the various wonderful things that were semi-automated using magic, at the huge "mirror" that seemed to be made of gold and a flash of light.
The passing army formation gave rise to a vague feeling of unreality.
Is there really such a kingdom?
Could it be that it was destroyed in that rune war? Sure enough, out-of-control magic is fatal.
"With the development and expansion of the empire, the haze finally began to appear. A small country that was suspicious of the empire and was hostile to the empire rashly communicated dangerous forces in the hope of resisting the empire's conquest army, but they could not control this alien world.
The entire kingdom was reduced to ghosts in this explosion, and this power from another world is the void."
Void?
Xin Zhao had never heard of this name, and he couldn't understand what the power of another world was. Maybe the other world was the same as the spiritual world mentioned by the elders when he was young?
"Void is not the material world, but some kind of unknowable nothingness on the other side of the realm. It is an insatiable hunger, eager to devour all matter and rules, and even make the entire universe fall into the void." Atok
Si's voice had a hint of gritted teeth, "Whether it is the material world, the magical world, or the spiritual world, it is the nourishment that the void desires, and those stupid people who think they can control the void, after communicating with the void, do what they want.
The Void provides the location of Runeterra."
Xin Zhao looked at the terrifying tentacles rising from the ground on the scroll, as if they were terrifying eyes that could see through everything, and instinctively felt a sense of nausea. If what Aatrox said was true, then this was indeed fatal.
"In order to bridge the rift in the void, the most noble celestial warriors of the Shurima Empire fought hard. Although they closed the rift after fighting hard and cut off the connection between the void and Runeterra, their noble bodies were also eroded by the void.
The will was also tortured by the illusion of eternity." Aatrox continued his story, "After that, we lost our noble ascended bodies and fell from the gods warriors to dark descendants."
Hearing this, Xin Zhao finally couldn't help but his eyes widened. Could this be the origin of the dark descendants? They were once warriors who fought hard for this world?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "At the beginning, under the leadership of the regent, the dark descendants could barely control themselves, but as the regent could no longer hold on, he sealed himself
, most of the dark descendants also made similar choices. Some followed the example of the regent and forged their essence into a weapon to put their will into sleep; some made special elemental transformations on themselves to avoid invasion; some also spent a long time with the void.
In the process of confrontation of wills, I discovered a realm where the void has not corroded."
Hearing this, Xin Zhao already had a vague premonition in his heart.
"This is the realm of death."
Xin Zhao was a little stunned.
"The darkspawn are immortal, but thanks to an arrogant man who tried to control life and death, I finally found this land of the dead." At this point, Aatrox's tone finally became a little more proud, "Here
There is no time and space, there is only eternal loneliness and death, and this is precisely what the void cannot perceive and swallow, because death itself means non-existence."
Xin Zhao remained silent and looked at the scroll again.
"Here, I finally got rid of the damn invasion of the void." Aatrox seemed to relax a lot, "I am different from those idiots who can only survive by various means. I am planning a great revenge.
A counterattack for Runeterra!"
Hearing this, Xin Zhao finally couldn't help but grin.
"Between life and death, I have seen enough of the stupidity and ignorance of mortals. The stupidity of the Icathians and the outbreak of the Rune War have completely proved to me the unreliability of relying solely on mortals!" Aatrox's tone
He became louder, "So, I want to pull talented living people like you into the curtain between life and death, preserve your will, become an immortal, and then lead the undead to fight against the void and completely wipe it out.
