I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1263

Chapter 1263: Chapter 1265: Exorcising Demons and Eliminating Evil Chapter 1263: Chapter 1265: Exorcising Demons and Eliminating Evil Master Yiwen's words resonated like a great bell tolling in the grand hall, startling Song Jian, who had not expected Master Yiwen to detect his hidden presence.

“Old monk, what hysterics are you throwing now? Your disciples are almost all dead. Hurry up and offer your soul so the Demon Lord can awaken sooner, hahahaha!” The resentful spirit shook the bell in its hand again, tormenting the monks in the cages to the point of unbearable agony.

However, ringing the bell seemed to cause great harm, or rather consumed a lot of energy from the resentful spirit. Even it could not keep shaking the bell indefinitely and stopped after a brief moment.

Having collected a monk's soul with the bell, the resentful spirit was already quite satisfied.

“Hahahaha, old monk, see you tomorrow. I want to see how long you can hold out…” The resentful spirit laughed arrogantly.

“Noble patron, what are you still waiting for? Do you really want to watch these demons run amok?” cried Master Yiwen in anguish and fury.

Just then, the hidden mission in Song Jian's task bar began to change, revealing the next set of objectives.

“Exorcising demons? Is it just about killing these Demon Bone Monks and resentful spirits?” A smirk appeared on Song Jian's lips, and he swung the Sky-breaking Sword forward fiercely, summoning countless spirit swords out of thin air.

In the instant that hundreds of spirit swords materialized, the leading resentful spirit seemed to sense something and turned its head to look in Song Jian's direction.

“Who dares to intrude into the Demon Lord Shrine?” The resentful spirit growled lowly, bursting with murderous intent, and the Demon Bone Monks behind it bore savage expressions, emitting a series of beast-like roars from their throats.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh~
Countless spirit swords flew towards the monsters, their sharp Sword Qi slicing and shredding the air in the grand hall, creating a suffocating atmosphere that enveloped the creatures.

Roar~
With a low roar, several Demon Bone Monks immediately began to transform, with bone spikes protruding from their bodies, piercing through their skin and enveloping their frames as if they had grown several centimeters taller.

A transparent energy shield appeared in front of the resentful spirit, encapsulating its entire body for protection.

Song Jian moved like lightning, charging towards the monsters along with the spirit swords. He had to kill these creatures quickly; otherwise, if the commotion was too large and attracted more monsters, even Song Jian, no matter how formidable, would not be able to walk out alive.

Boom boom boom~
Countless spirit swords struck the monsters, instantly erupting in thunderous booms. In just a short time, all of the Demon Bone Monks were ablaze with dark red flames.

Song Jian was startled. The spirit swords only inflicted four to five thousand points of damage on them, but the Red Lotus Karma Fire attached to the surface of the swords unexpectedly inflicted exaggerated burn damage on the Demon Bone Monks, exceeding tens of thousands of points. The moment Red Lotus Karma Fire touched the Demon Bone Monks, it was like a flame catching gasoline, the fire blazed even more fiercely. Damage in the tens of thousands flickered above the Demon Bone Monks' heads every second, and once they were tainted with Red Lotus Karma Fire, it was like a maggot in their bones. Unless burned to ash, it would never extinguish.

“The Red Lotus Karma Fire is also known as the fire of purification, it's simply the bane of these demon creatures!” Song Jian's face lit up with surprise, his gaze shifted from the Demon Bone Monks and locked onto the leading resentful spirit.

This resentful spirit was an eighty-level dominator class BOSS, tremendously powerful. With a casual wave of its hand, it conjured an energy shield with over ten thousand points of defense.

The spirit swords chopping onto the energy shield caused only faint ripples and could not harm it in the slightest; above the resentful spirit's head floated the word “Immune” one after another.

“Hehehe, powerful human, your flesh and blood will taste even more delicious than that of ordinary humans, and your soul will be much stronger. Just by capturing you, I can surely awaken the Demon Lord ahead of time…” The resentful spirit stared at Song Jian with blood-red eyes, looking as if he had already considered Song Jian his prey.

Boom!

Song Jian's Sky-breaking Sword fiercely cleaved down on the resentful spirit's energy shield, instantly splitting it with a crack. With a single thought, numerous Spirit Swords, having killed the Demon Bone Monk, spun in the air and continued flying toward the resentful spirit.

The resentful spirit seemed to be extremely wary of the Red Lotus Karma Fire on the Spirit Swords, daring not to let them contaminate its being.

With a wave of its right hand, two more energy shields appeared beside it, encircling its body tightly, fending off the attacks from the Spirit Swords.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

A series of sparks burst forth from the three shields around the resentful spirit, causing ripples on the surface, but not harming the resentful spirit in the slightest.

The crack that Song Jian had previously made in the shield slowly healed over time, leaving no trace behind.

“Human, although you are very powerful, you are still no match for me. Hand over your flesh and blood willingly, and your soul as well, I will grant you a less painful death…” A hideous smile crept across the resentful spirit's face as it raised its right hand and a ball of gray light bloomed from its palm, reaching out toward Song Jian like tendrils.

Song Jian narrowed his eyes, his mind focused, and all the Spirit Swords began to rotate around the resentful spirit, forming an impenetrable wall of swords. The gray miasma, once it neared the Spirit Swords, was shredded into fragments by the fierce Sword Qi.

Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation, arise!

Song Jian raised his left hand and clenched it fiercely. All the Spirit Swords transformed into fiery lotus leaves converging on the resentful spirit, quickly forming a Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation with a diameter of merely five or six meters inside the grand hall.

At this moment, the previous arrogant smile had vanished from the resentful spirit's face, replaced by a trace of terror. It could feel the encircling Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation becoming a threat to its very life!

Song Jian's face remained calm, but the raised left hand was bulging with veins, trembling continuously as if he was exerting his utmost to maintain something.

In reality, Song Jian's strength had reached a level where he could freely manipulate the subsequent formations of the Thousand Swords Art, no longer needing the Sword Spirit to evolve step by step.

However, adjusting the size of the Sword Formation at will was still somewhat challenging for Song Jian at this stage. To avoid alerting too many creatures, Song Jian had to condense the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation down to a diameter of five or six meters. This was the limit he could maintain. Any smaller, and although the power would increase exponentially, the difficulty of maintaining the Sword Formation would also skyrocket, which was beyond Song Jian's current abilities.

Nevertheless, even so, the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation before him had no problem dealing with an 80th-level boss.

Within the Sword Formation, the resentful spirit howled continuously, trying to summon other resentful spirits for help. But within the Sword Formation, not a single sound could escape. It could only helplessly watch as the shields around its body gradually shattered and fell apart, unable to do anything about it.

Boom~
A ball of flames soared into the sky. The blazing Red Lotus shone brilliantly, and then it vanished, leaving only a pile of ashes and several items gleaming with multicolored light in its place.
