I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1530

Chapter 1530: Chapter 1532: Suit Chapter 1530: Chapter 1532: Suit “`
Song Jian sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion in the main hall of the peak, while Duan Xingliu sat opposite him, explaining the cultivation methods and key points of the Chaos Sword Canon.

System: You have received guidance from Duan Xingliu, gaining some insights into the cultivation of the Chaos Sword Canon, Experience Points have been increased;
System: You have received guidance from Duan Xingliu, deeply comprehending the cultivation of the Chaos Sword Canon, Experience Points have been increased;
System: You have received guidance from Duan Xingliu, gaining some insights into the cultivation of the Chaos Sword Canon, Chaos Sword Canon level increased by 1;
…

After explaining the Chaos Sword Canon for over an hour, Duan Xingliu directly elevated Song Jian's level of the Chaos Sword Canon to level four. This was an increase without the use of skill points, and he fully understood and mastered it, immediately able to unleash the power of a level four Chaos Sword Canon.

“Alright, that's all for today. Digest this for now, and after some time, I will explain the subsequent parts of the Chaos Sword Canon to you!” said Duan Xingliu with a nod.

“Master, I have already elevated the Chaos Sword Canon to level four, so why haven't I comprehended the corresponding sword techniques?” Song Jian was somewhat puzzled. When the Chaos Sword Canon reached level one, he had already understood the move “Red Dust Tribulation”, and now that it had been elevated to level four, why hadn't he grasped the second technique?

Duan Xingliu smiled slightly and said, “Song Jian, do you know how many people in the Imperial Sword Sect have mastered the Chaos Sword Canon?”

Without waiting for Song Jian to respond, Duan Xingliu continued, “There are thirty-eight people, and among them, aside from the first move, 'Red Dust Tribulation', which is fairly uniform, the other sword techniques are all different!”

“All different?” Song Jian was startled internally, “Are they still cultivating the Chaos Sword Canon then?”

“Of course, why wouldn't they be?” Duan Xingliu replied with a slight smile. “Do you know what the ultimate power of the Chaos Sword Canon is? It's the Chaos Law. If you cultivate to the extreme, you will master the Chaos Law and become a godlike figure. Unfortunately, due to the existence of the sealing curse, no one has reached that realm yet…”

“Chaos Law…” A look of disbelief flashed in Song Jian's eyes. The Power of Law and skills were entirely different realms of existence. That the Chaos Sword Canon could actually cultivate the Power of Law was unimaginable.

“The Chaos Law is a law that transcends all others, even more profound than the Space Law and the Time Law. It is one of the highest laws of the cosmic laws!” Duan Xingliu said with a smile.

“One of the highest laws?” Song Jian felt as if he was beginning to touch upon something incredible.

“Alright, with your current strength, it's too early to discuss these matters. Just focus on cultivating the Chaos Sword Canon and integrate your understanding and perception into it, and soon you will be able to master the second sword move!” Duan Xingliu looked at Song Jian and laughed.

Song Jian nodded without asking further, not to mention the highest laws, even the current Time Law he had not fully mastered. Discussing the rest was just empty talk for now!

“I still have the Law of Power, and I have also obtained the Paso Fruit Tree from a fragment of the universe. When the time comes, there will be numerous Powers of Law for me to choose from!” Song Jian thought to himself, “Could the Paso Fruit Tree, which bears fruits containing Law Fragments, also be one of the highest laws? If so, maybe in the future I can master two of the highest laws, haha, no, the Tree of Life. The Tree of Life connects many universes. Such an existence must also contain the highest laws. If that's the case, maybe in the future I can master three of the highest laws…”

“By the way, as for the Sword Immortal set, you have already collected six pieces, quite impressive. As for the remaining two, let me give them to you as a gift!” Duan Xingliu said with a smile, taking out two pieces of equipment from his chest and handing them over to Song Jian.

“`
“Gift it to me?” Song Jian was startled. He had been ready to leave the Imperial Sword Sect and the next thing was to collect the full set of Sword Immortal Equipment. Although he was already at level 150, reaching the pinnacle of the Legendary Realm, the level 120 Sword Immortal Equipment was still top-notch gear for him.

Looking at the two pieces of equipment in Duan Xingliu's hands, Song Jian knew this was the reward for accepting the task. If he had chosen to refuse earlier, Duan Xingliu probably would've never offered to explain the Chaos Sword Canon to him, and these two pieces of equipment would have remained forever out of reach, leaving the Sword Immortal Equipment set incomplete.

“Thank you, Master!” Song Jian respectfully bowed and took the two pieces of equipment with both hands. After putting them on, a dazzling purplish-gold light burst forth from his body. All eight pieces of equipment shone brightly, converging into one continuous glow that lasted for a full ten seconds before slowly subsiding. Under Song Jian's command, they returned to their plain and unadorned appearance.

The complete eight-piece Sword Immortal Equipment set boosted Song Jian's strength significantly. His sword technique damage increased by 500%. Now, a casual swing of his sword could unleash the power equivalent to others' ultimate moves. Such an existence was like a real-life enemy of ten thousand, even a hundred thousand!

“With my current strength, I might be able to annihilate an entire city on my own, of course, it would just be those second or third-tier small cities. Fifth-tier cities would still be somewhat difficult for me,” Song Jian observed his hands and felt the surging power within his body, a confident smile appeared on his face.

…
City of Hope, City Lord Mansion, Conference Hall
A dozen high-ranking officials from the City of Hope were seated at the conference table, all wearing solemn expressions.

“Vice City Lord, is there still no contact with the City Lord?” a burly man clad in battle armor asked with a frown, tapping his fingers lightly on the conference table.

“We still can't get in touch. He must be in a dungeon or some secret realm…” Wang Qi also frowned deeply and shook his head.

“Isn't there any special way to contact him?” Luo Tianyu couldn't help but ask from the side. “For such a serious matter, we simply can't decide without the City Lord here!”

“You wish you could make decisions. Without the City Lord seal, what could you possibly decide?” A thin middle-aged man sitting nearby, twirling his beard, scoffed coldly.

“Damn it, those cities have been developed for hundreds of years! Some have even been thriving for thousands of years! How can our city, which has just been promoted, with no foundation, compete with them?” An administrator revealed a look of anger on his face and slammed the conference table as he spoke.

“The deadline is the day after tomorrow. If we don't comply, they will strike us. What should we do?” A young man sitting in the corner kept looking at the faces of others and spoke in a low voice. “Why don't we agree for now and wait for the City Lord to return? After all, without the City Lord seal, even if we verbally agree, it doesn't mean anything… It's just a delay tactic…”

“No way. Once we agree, they'll demand that we open our garrison and sign unequal trade treaties. By the time they've exploited us completely, even if the City Lord returns, what could be done?”

Everyone was chattering among themselves, and Wang Qi's forehead was covered in sweat. He was capable in domestic affairs, but he dared not make such critical decisions!

“We could fight to the death if it comes to that. Even if they eradicate us, we'll make sure they're splattered with our blood!” Luo Tianyu stood up, slammed his fist onto the table and roared loudly.
