ch64,
EAPI7 is several years old now. Your install must be several years out of date too.
There are two ways forward.
1. Throw away the existing install and do a new install, keeping a few important fragments from the old install.
2. Do a stepwise update following HOWTO Update Old Gentoo.
Option 1 will be much faster than option 2 but option 2 minimises downtime.
Its also a wonderful educational experience.
As ever, the choice is yours.

Portage itself gives "EAPI 7 masked" as result.
A, I've read Neddy. Ok
update:
I just came from Dust of the Mountain Beer.
The beer is too strong. So after reboot I lost the thingy to Beer again. 
In clear words: Another time.
Beeri issy wetje laptopje.  noooch
So my big advice: Dont let Beer Beer next to Laptop. 
And still there is a difference between Notebook (Asshole) and Laptop (Lenovo Asshole)
The third thingy is interesting.

This was helpful to me today in resolving conflicts on a system overdue for update. Strange this thread is from 2019, but I am having this problem in mid-2021. My last world update was only late February of this year...
In any case, I wanted to share with future searchers that I had to remove a few additional packages to proceed:
| Code: | | emerge -avC1 setuptools certifi urllib3 PySocks idna chardet requests |
| Code: | | emerge -av1 portage |
I was prepared to reinstall all of the removed packages after the successful update with:
| Code: | # emerge -av1 setuptools certifi urllib3 PySocks idna chardet requests
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

but found that it was not necessary because each of the listed packages with pulled in by the portage update. I guess they're all necessary for something...

Thank you all for your help!
I also needed to update python to 3.6, because the new portage requires it (otherwise the build fails).
These were the exact steps to fix my problem:
| Code: | emerge --sync
emerge -qav python
USE='-rsync-verify' emerge -qavO portage
emerge -qav portage |
Gentoo forums is still the best! |
Thanks for sharing it !!!! I also had similar problem with many errors related to EAPI 7 --> EAPI 8 . finally solved in my (Pentoo) Gentoo following your steps .
I had an old portage and old python and it gave me many errors , related to (masked by EAPI  not suported in current portage version.
After apply your steps ,
emerge --sync
emerge -qav python
USE='-rsync-verify' emerge -qavO portage
emerge -qav portage
I could also update correctly , python , portage , and later also the kernel update,
* python3_8 -> python3_9 updated // dev-lang/python-3.8.9_p2::gentoo ⇒ dev-lang/python-3.9.7_p1::gentoo
* Portage updated to portage 3.0.20-r6 // sys-apps/portage-3.0.20-r6::gentoo
* kernel 5.12.19 ==> kernel 5.14.10
Step by step , keeping clean and update the Gentoo System , thanks .
(additional edit comment ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------)
Once solved the problem , it is a good practice to enable back again ,USE "rsync verify",
Since verify is the default you can likely just
"emerge -a1 portage"
and after that , you can check that "rsync veryfy" , USE flag is activated , with the command ,
equery uses portage
you should see,
+ + rsync-verify : Enable full-tree cryptographic verification of
Gentoo repository rsync checkouts using
app-portage/gemato.
Thanks a lot !

Thank you! This brought back an old box not updated for over a year...
