I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1580

Chapter 1580: Chapter 1581: Spoils of War Chapter 1580: Chapter 1581: Spoils of War “`
The battle between Demi-God Level beings was something Zhang Hong couldn't interfere with. As soon as the Centaur King completed his demonic transformation, Zhang Hong immediately retreated backwards until he stopped a dozen meters away.

“Terrifying, unbelievably so!” Zhang Hong's face turned pale; he now understood that if he hadn't approached Song Jian, any other person would probably have stood no chance against this fearsome enemy.

“The Demi-God Realm, is this what a fighter from the Demi-God Realm is like?” Zhang Hong whispered. You know, he had only ever encountered warriors from the Legendary Realm and had no idea how terrifying combatants from the Demi-God Realm could be. But today, he finally witnessed it. Once a Demi-God Realm warrior fought with full force, just the aura emanating from them made him shudder uncontrollably, completely devoid of any courage to fight.

Boom, boom, boom~
The battle in front of the temple continued. If previously Song Jian had dominated the Centaur King in battle, now, with the Centaur King fully demonized, he was able to compete equally with Song Jian. His war spear was heavy and long, his moves were broad and powerful, seemingly desperate. For a moment, Song Jian actually felt overwhelmed.

“Massacre of Thousands!” Although the Centaur King had undergone demonic transformation, his combat instinct hadn't vanished. He could still execute all of his skills. With this move, his long spear suddenly became like a meteor, stabbing towards Song Jian.

Red Dust Tribulation!

Song Jian had no intention of backing down or defending; he directly countered with an attack, casting Red Dust Tribulation towards the Centaur King. The Centaur King's sure strike pierced nothing but air, as Song Jian's figure disappeared into the void, leaving only fleeting strands of Chaos Sword Energy encircling the Centaur King.

Swish, swish, swish~
The Chaos Sword Energy was incredibly sharp, and even though the Centaur King's defense had greatly improved after his demonic transformation, he couldn't withstand the erosion of the Chaos Sword Energy. What's more crucial was that the Chaos Sword Energy possessed a formidable life-draining capability. Once wounded, whether it was through natural recovery, execution of healing skills, or intake of healing potions, nothing could heal the wounds.

Having cast the Red Dust Tribulation, Song Jian's figure was now completely merged with the void, making the Centaur King unable to find a target even in his desperation, only able to passively endure the endless onslaught of the Chaos Sword Energy.

Despite his demonic transformation, the Centaur King could hardly bear such torturous damage, akin to slow slicing;
-99669
-105996
-114857
…

One by one, damage numbers exceeding one hundred thousand floated above the Centaur King's head, and unbelievably, they were stacking up at an increasing rate. In just thirty seconds, the damage inflicted by each strand of Chaos Sword Energy had already escalated to five or six hundred thousand.

At last, the damage inflicted by Red Dust Tribulation piled up to a terrifying extent. A streak of Chaos Sword Radiance flashed from the Centaur King's hind leg, and with a “snap,” one of the Centaur King's legs was cut off and flew away.

The unsteady Centaur King fell forward, plunging into a pool of blood, still struggling fiercely. Suddenly, he felt an excruciating pain coming from behind him. As he turned his head, he saw countless strands of Chaos Sword Energy insanely slicing his body apart.

“No!” The Centaur King let out an agonized roar, and his face, now fallen to that of a demon's, showed a look of terror. He had picked up the scent of the Death God drawing ever nearer.

“`
The Centaur King who had advanced to the Demi-God Realm was only comparable to Song Jian in terms of strength; in all other aspects, whether it was the power of his skills or the Power of Law he mastered, he was far inferior to Song Jian.

“Die!”

In the void, a soft sigh from Song Jian resonated, his voice emerging above the head of the Centaur King. The Sky-breaking Sword in his hand burst forth with dazzling light.

Divine Fall!

The second form of the Chaos Sword Canon; it possessed formidable lethality against divine beings. As the Centaur King had advanced to the Demi-God Level, and his strength had greatly increased, the damage from the Divine Fall technique did not lessen but rather intensified. The exploitative nature of the damage left the already injured Centaur King unable to bear any longer, he began to scream loudly.

“Save me, save me, I've dedicated everything to you, you have to save me, save me…”

The frantic roars grew weaker under the assault of the Divine Fall Sword Energy, and eventually, the Centaur King fell heavily into a pool of blood. This time, he would not be able to stand up again.

“Waste!” A low curse resounded in the void. Song Jian remained vigilant, looking around, but he found nothing. The curse seemed like an illusion.

But Song Jian knew that this curse was clearly emitted by the demon that had lured the Centaur King into corruption. He could sense the strong scent of hellfire emanating from the other party.

Song Jian prepared himself for a possible confrontation, considering that perhaps this demon hiding behind the Centaur King was the ultimate boss of this region. But after a long wait, when the demon did not appear, Song Jian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He summoned the Blazing Fire Furnace and absorbed the corpse of the Centaur King into the furnace. In a short time, the furnace extracted two points of Divinity. After all, it was a boss that had only recently advanced to the Demi-God Level; it didn't have much Divinity. To be able to extract two points was quite good.

Song Jian casually added these two points to his Chaos Sword Canon; surprisingly, they only increased the proficiency of the Chaos Sword Canon by 68%, not even enough to raise it a level. However, Song Jian could clearly feel that the Chaos Sword Canon seemed to be nurturing something; he could distinctly sense that the manual was undergoing subtle changes that couldn't be detected from the skill bar's attributes.

Among the loot, there was only a purple-gold glowing white bone skull the size of a fist, shining as it rolled on the ground.

“Only one item?” Song Jian found it strange. That's because any boss of any tier or level usually dropped at least five or six loot items, with some dropping even over a dozen. But this Demi-God Level boss had yielded merely one legendary-quality item, which was surprising indeed.

“Song Jian, could I take a look at this item?” Zhang Hong asked somewhat sheepishly. After the boss died, he constantly received system notifications that this white bone skull was related to the mission of advancing his profession.

But during the entire fight, he hadn't been able to contribute at all, so naturally, he had no right to claim any loot. Now, his only hope was that Song Jian had no use for it and that he might be able to purchase it from Song Jian.

Song Jian glanced at the attributes of the white bone skull; it was a rare embedding item, similar to a gemstone. As long as a master smith could be found to carve an embedding slot into the equipment, the white bone skull could be set into it, enhancing the equipment's attributes.

“Is it still related to profession advancement?” Song Jian raised the white bone skull in his hand, curiously asking. Previously it was a bone ring, and now a bone skull, which made Song Jian wonder. Could it be that Zhang Hong's advancement was not towards the War Buddha, but towards a special undead profession?
