"Greetings, Your Holiness," Su Li bowed respectfully and made the standard greeting gesture.

Pope Othellad smiled slightly, his eyes shining with wisdom, as if he instantly saw through Su Li's hidden strength and praised, "Impressive, as a disciple under Mourinho's command, the Night Church is proud to have such an outstanding Night Watcher like you."

Su Li felt a bit awkward being praised by the tall and kind old man and didn't know how to respond, so he looked to Lilith for help.

The Pope turned his palm over and took out two bottles of magic potion, which Su Li was very familiar with. They were the eighth sequence magic potion - Soul Master.

"The Night Church has always followed the rules, and the promotion of magic potions depends solely on completing missions. Even if you are a disciple under the command, you are no exception. Now you need two bottles of magic potion to suppress the power within you, but the mission must be completed. I will give you these magic potions for now. From today onwards, you and Lilith will temporarily join Adrian's Night Watcher team. Do you have any objections?"

Although Othellad's words sounded serious, there was a hint of kindness in his gaze.

Su Li took the magic potions and nodded seriously.

Lilith spoke on behalf of Su Li, "We will follow Your Holiness's orders."

The Pope smiled kindly and said, "Your situation is special, so you will take the magic potions under my supervision. If nothing unexpected happens, you will start the mission tomorrow and digest the magic potions. In addition, the selection battle within the church is about to begin. Since Su Li has just become a Night Watcher, participating in it will not only gain recognition but also hone his combat experience."

Su Li was quite satisfied with the Pope's arrangements. It was unfair for him to directly represent the Night Church in the battle of the extraordinary individuals from the seven major churches, and he would not get any training either.

Most importantly, completing the mission would not only allow him to exchange for magic potions but also earn money!

He imitated Lilith's tone and said, "I respect your will, Your Holiness."

The old man nodded in satisfaction and handed over the two bottles of magic potions.

Su Li's aura circulated around him. The power of the Transcendent Path within his body gradually merged with the entire Night Church's aura. Without hesitation, he opened the bottle and drank the ninth bottle of magic potion, which was as deep as the night sky.

Gurgle.

As the magic potion entered Su Li's body, the boundless darkness immediately merged with the power of the other eight bottles of magic potions.

A silent wave of darkness swept over Su Li's body.

The conflicting forces of the Transcendent Path and the Dual Path instantly collided within Su Li's body.

Explosion.

The mysterious power clashed within Su Li's body, both calming and roaring.

Su Li didn't expect the commotion caused by the ninth bottle of magic potion to be so intense.

The power of the Dragon Path remained dormant, its aura still present.

In the spiritual world, the golden power was like a dragon flying through the night sky, spewing out scorching dragon breath.

The power of the dragon was violent.

In Su Li's pitch-black inner world, waves of scorching flames burst open, as if a town hidden under the night was engulfed by dragon flames.

The resounding dragon roar echoed in every major acupoint of Su Li's body. In just a moment, his body became half golden and half deep black.

It seemed incompatible.

Taking the magic potion was extremely dangerous.

Even though Su Li was the vessel of the dragon, it was still difficult to simultaneously accommodate both paths and nine bottles of magic potions.

Crack!

Su Li's chest suddenly burst open, and the pitch-black magic potion seemed to be squeezed out of his body by the sudden eruption of the dragon's power.

At that moment, Othellad extended his withered fingers, and the black crown on his head shone brightly like stars in the night sky.

His neatly trimmed nails tapped four times on Su Li's chest.

Su Li, who couldn't contain the ninth bottle of magic potion, suddenly had one pitch-black and one golden pupil.

Lilith watched this strange scene in silence and couldn't help but put the Nine Lives Seal on Su Li's head.

Othellad personally opened the tenth bottle of magic potion and poured the dark potion directly onto Su Li's head.

A strange scene unfolded.

The deep black liquid that should have fallen from Su Li's head instantly fell into his spiritual world under the control of the Pope, pouring into the dragon's body that was running rampant within Su Li's spiritual world.

The originally domineering dragon power was instantly swallowed by the darkness.

Su Li's golden pupils suddenly contracted.

Othellad spoke in a calm tone, as if the embodiment of the night, "The night belongs to everyone, including the dragon."

The golden dragon power was instantly subdued, lulled to sleep, hidden, and enveloped in darkness, like everything hidden under the night, no longer shining brightly.

Lilith's face became solemn.

This was the power of the Pope of the Night Church.

Ten bottles of magic potions merged into one, and all the danger, contamination, and death were buried by darkness.

The silent battle continued, but it was shrouded in darkness, imprisoned and buried.

Su Li closed his eyes, and the power of the dragon within his body slowly subsided.

Perfect state.

In terms of spiritual power alone, Su Li, who was in the eighth sequence, was even stronger than those in the seventh sequence.

This was the joint effort of the two top powerhouses of the Night Church.

In Serede, far away, Mourinho looked at the night sky with the crimson moon hanging high and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

His disciple did not disappoint him.

Othellad was quite surprised. He originally thought it would take a lot of effort for Su Li to accommodate all ten bottles of the eighth sequence magic potions. However, there were five powerful pulses within Su Li's body, like five drums beating in unison, each handling the pollution of two bottles of magic potions, allowing the power of the night to flow smoothly.

The power of the Bloodstone!

That was Su Li's own power.

With four more hearts than others, Su Li's blood flowed even more smoothly, and his vitality was even stronger than some demonic beasts.

"Besides being under Mourinho's command, your physical strength is the strongest I have ever seen in my life."Hearing the praise from Pope Othellad, Su Li, who was gradually reining in his aura, gave a bitter smile.

If possible, he didn't want to become this strong either.

But as a vessel, Su Li had no choice but to resist.

Having reined in all the power of the Night Pathway, Su Li's eyes turned brown, a sign of returning to his true self. From this moment on, the Night and Dragon Pathways truly became invincible in the same sequence.

Su Li tapped his chest four times for the second time, even more sincerely than when he first met Pope Othellad.

If it weren't for the Pope's intervention, Su Li wouldn't have been able to bear the pollution brought by the ten bottles of magic potion, let alone suppress the immense power of the Dragon Pathway.

It wasn't until he had gathered all the extraordinary powers just now that Su Li truly understood the enormous gift the Pope had given him.

Having instantly absorbed all ten bottles of magic potion, Su Li was now qualified to ascend to Sequence 7.

As long as he fully digested these ten bottles of magic potion and honed himself through extraordinary battles, he could directly ascend to Sequence 7 - the Hidden One.

"Go and rest for now. Tomorrow, the Black Cloak in charge of Adria will show you around and give you your first extraordinary task," the Pope said with a smile to Su Li and Lilith.

"Yes," the two replied in unison.
