I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1272

Chapter 1272: Chapter 1274 Sealing Array Chapter 1272: Chapter 1274 Sealing Array The gust of wind was bitingly cold behind him, and Song Jian reached out to hold the Soul Heart Lamp in his hand, turning to face the Ancient Desolate Demon God.

At that moment, the Ancient Desolate Demon God appeared quite disheveled, with one of its fleshy wings gone without a trace and the other drooping down, sticking close to its body.

On the left shoulder of the Ancient Desolate Demon God, there was a wound so deep that bone could be seen, nearly crippling its entire left arm. Dark fog continuously emerged from the wound, attempting to heal it, but the surface of the wound was tainted with strands of gray aura. As soon as the black fog came into contact with it, the gray aura devoured it, rendering the wound incapable of healing.

The Opening Heaven Style had critically injured the Ancient Desolate Demon God, and most importantly, the characteristic of the Chaotic Force to annihilate everything made it so that the enemy's injuries could never heal. In the status bar, a “Chaos Erosion” debuff was also hanging there.

This effect caused a loss of five hundred Vitality Points per second, and as time went on, the condition could continuously stack. For an existence like the Ancient Desolate Demon God, if there was no way to dispel the trace of Chaotic Force on the wound, it would continue to erode itself, turn into nourishment, and grow stronger. Eventually, this strand of Chaotic Force could even completely annihilate the Ancient Desolate Demon God.

But for now, the amount of this Chaotic Force was simply too small. Even if it couldn't be eliminated in a short time, the Ancient Desolate Demon God wouldn't take it to heart. What it was most anxious about at the moment was that the Soul Heart Lamp was being controlled in Song Jian's hands. The Soul Heart Lamp was equivalent to the Ancient Desolate Demon God's lifeline artifact, which it had to use to absorb souls and turn them into nourishment to resist the Sealing Array of the Zhenmo Temple.

If the Soul Heart Lamp were damaged, not only would it be unable to absorb souls to recuperate from injuries, but its own being would also suffer even more severe damage.

In its current weakened state where its strength had dwindled to barely one percent, if the Soul Heart Lamp were to be destroyed, it would likely enter an eternal slumber.

It could be said that the Soul Heart Lamp was like the Ancient Desolate Demon God's testicles. Once grasped by someone, it would feel even worse than receiving two slashes!

“You mere mortal…” Without regard for its own injuries, the Ancient Desolate Demon God pounced toward Song Jian, its right hand transforming into a claw in an instant and reaching for the Soul Heart Lamp in Song Jian's hand.

The Soul Heart Lamp, which was already in Song Jian's hand, was obviously not going to be snatched back by the Ancient Desolate Demon God. Song Jian sneered, slightly exerted strength with his five fingers, and immediately five clear fingerprints appeared on the Soul Heart Lamp. The flame, originally the size of a soybean, suddenly flickered violently as if it would go out at any second.

Fear appeared on the face of the Ancient Desolate Demon God. Its right claw was less than a foot away from the Soul Heart Lamp, but this foot of distance seemed like an insurmountable gap.

Looking up, the gazes of the Ancient Desolate Demon God and Song Jian met. In Song Jian's eyes was mockery, while in those of the Ancient Desolate Demon God were fear and anger.

“Human, hand over the Soul Heart Lamp, and I'll give you a chance to pledge allegiance to me!” the Ancient Desolate Demon God stared at Song Jian and bellowed loudly.

Song Jian's eyes shifted, and he extended the Soul Heart Lamp forward, saying, “Here you go!”

The Ancient Desolate Demon God, overjoyed, viciously reached for the Soul Heart Lamp. At that moment, a faint purple glow that had enveloped the surface of the great hall suddenly flashed with electric light, and thick pythons of purple thunder struck down at the right claw of the Ancient Desolate Demon God.

Boom, boom~
In an instant, the right hand of the Ancient Desolate Demon God was struck by dozens of purple thunders, turning to char in a flash.

The Ancient Desolate Demon God let out a heart-wrenching roar and continuously retreated. It was only when the Ancient Desolate Demon God had moved away from the Soul Heart Lamp that the sky full of purple thunder slowly dissipated.

Song Jian, deep in thought, looked up toward the ceiling, watching the slowly dissipating purple thunder, and thought to himself, “Although it's all purple thunder, the thunder here is completely different from the Purple Zixiao Tribulation Thunder.”

Looking at the Ancient Desolate Demon God with fear written all over his face, Song Jian laughed and said, “This Soul Heart Lamp has been placed here for who knows how long. If you could have touched it, you probably would have hidden it away long ago, right?”

As he spoke, Song Jian looked at the lamp in his hand, his mind flashed with insight, and he suddenly said, “This Sealing Array is actually sealing you. Although you can use the Soul Heart Lamp to absorb souls and turn them into nourishment, this lamp is in fact connected to the entire Sealing Array. It is the true focal point of the entire array!”

Quickly, Song Jian's consciousness slowly probed into the Soul Heart Lamp, and after a moment, the lamp shone brilliantly and became animated.

Song Jian burst into laughter, gently wiping the lamp, and laughed, “Indeed, this Soul Heart Lamp is the focal point of the entire Sealing Array. Seizing it means seizing control over the whole Sealing Array!”

The right claw of the Ancient Desolate Demon God began to slowly regrow. The power of the Sealing Array's array wasn't as terrifying as the Chaotic Force, having no capability to stop healing from taking place.

In just over ten seconds, the right claw of the Ancient Desolate Demon God had regrown, and during this time, Song Jian had also taken complete control of the Sealing Array in the great hall.

Boom boom boom~
The previously subsided purple thunders appeared once again above the great hall, swirling above like dragons, emanating a fearsome presence.

The Ancient Desolate Demon God couldn't help taking two steps back. Such a terrifying might was now under Song Jian's control, filling it with a sense of despair.

However, even Song Jian wasn't having an easy time. Although he could freely control the Sealing Array, just a simple activation had already drained one third of his Mental Strength.

It must be understood that this was an array capable of sealing gods. With Song Jian's current strength, even though he controlled the focal point, the thought of completely dominating the entire array was simply impossible.

Song Jian was now only manipulating the focal point to indirectly control the Sealing Array, which allowed him to barely maintain control.

Boom!

A bolt of purple thunder descended from the sky, harshly striking the Ancient Desolate Demon God. Having sacrificed all its weapons, the demon god could only resist the thunder strike with its sturdy physical body.

“How is this possible, how can you control it so quickly…” The Ancient Desolate Demon God wore an incredulous expression, staring at the Soul Heart Lamp in Song Jian's hand and roaring furiously.

Boom, boom, boom~
Three consecutive bolts of purple thunder struck the Ancient Desolate Demon God, wiping away millions of its Vitality Points. The demon god coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, its knees gave out, and it knelt on the ground, looking at Song Jian with a face full of despair.

“Spare me, and I can offer you a secret Treasure Vault, one of the three I've accumulated over thousands of years, containing over a hundred precious treasures…” The Ancient Desolate Demon God shouted at Song Jian.

“Sorry, but I can't rest easy with you alive,” Song Jian shook his head and refused. Although the Ancient Desolate Demon God was seriously injured, it would still be a tough battle should a real fight ensue. If it weren't for Song Jian's control over the Sealing Array here, turning the tables, it would still be uncertain who would fall. How could he let it go so easily?
