I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1729

Chapter 1729: Chapter 1730: Harvest Chapter 1729: Chapter 1730: Harvest Within the Luofu Divine Palace, palace upon palace was stacked tier upon tier, resembling a labyrinth. Those unfamiliar with the terrain could easily get lost upon their first visit. However, the entourage of the Lord of Light, all of whom possess main deity-level divine consciousness, were quite clear about the general direction and the palaces they had visited before, despite being deep within the Luofu Divine Palace.

Elsewhere within a temple of the Luofu Divine Palace, dozens of alien powerhouses were seated in a circle on a vacant plot of land at the center of the temple.

This temple was so vast that it was even larger than a valley. As far as the eye could see, aside from the faint walls that could be discerned in the distance, the place was like a wilderness.

Encircling the ground where these alien powerhouses were seated flowed slow-moving rivers of magma. The dark red lava and scorching heat caused some legendary realm's alien powerhouses to sweat profusely, yet they could only endure in silence without daring to move a muscle!

“My friends, the divine artifact of our tribe is located in the distance. It is our God King's weapon, and to obtain it, one must pay a certain price!” A man dressed in a black robe slowly pulled down his hood to reveal his face.

The man's face was gaunt, resembling a skull, with skin tightly clinging to his bones and not a hint of muscle. His eyes shone with a dark red light, looking like two dark red gemstones.

On top of his head grew two pairs of demonic horns, while a three-inch spiral horn protruded out from his forehead, giving him a strange appearance.

“My lord, whatever your command, please feel free to issue it,” one true god-level powerhouse kneeled on the ground, half-bowing toward the man in the black robe, respectfully saying, “Even if it costs us our lives here, we won't hesitate, as long as you, my lord, can kill all those Evil Gods with the God-King weapon and allow our people to return to our homeland!”

“Yes, my lord, whatever the command, just give the order!” All the alien powerhouses simultaneously shouted toward the man in the black robe.

“Very well!” The black-robed man's dry face twitched slightly at the corner of his mouth, pointing to an alien powerhouse with main god-level strength, he said, “Tukanda, you lead half of our tribesmen to fend off those Evil Gods who have entered the Luofu Divine Palace. I can sense that these Evil Gods are very close to us now, and they will soon find this temple where we are!”

“Kaso, I need you and the other half of our tribesmen to break open the defensive seal with your blood. Only in this way can I climb that volcano and obtain the Bloodthirsty Warhammer!” The black-robed man looked toward a volcano in the distance that was continuously spewing billowing black smoke, a look of excitement flashing in his eyes.

Just then, above the crater of that distant volcano, floated a dark red warhammer. This warhammer appeared somewhat ethereal, as if it was a shadow, presenting a translucent form as if it existed in another spatial plane.

Surrounding the volcano was a faint green light barrier, preventing anyone from approaching!

“Understood, my lord!” Kaso stood up, resolutely walked toward the green light barrier. Behind him, a large group of alien powerhouses followed without the slightest hesitation, closely behind him.

“We only need half of your bodily blood!” The black-robed man nodded slightly as he watched Kaso's determined figure, whispering, “However, having lost half of your bodily blood, you will be left in a weakened state, and your combat power will be drastically reduced. You won't need to participate in the subsequent battles.”

Kaso's steps faltered slightly, but he quickly resumed and continued toward the green light barrier.

Approaching the barrier, Kaso did not hesitate to slice open his wrist with his weapon. Blood gushed out like a fountain, completely absorbed by the green light barrier without a drop remaining.

The remaining alien powerhouses stepped forward one after another, cutting open their wrists. The green light barrier devoured everyone's blood like a bloodthirsty beast. Soon, dark red patterns began to appear on the surface of the green light barrier. The light in the patterns contracted and expanded, extending outwards as if they were a giant dark red spider web.

The other half of the alien powerhouses gathered at the Temple Gate, weapons at the ready, and after waiting quietly for a moment, footsteps could be heard from outside the door.

The Lord of Light stood outside the door. He seemed to sense something, his hand resting on the Temple Gate for a long time without moving. After a while, a smile appeared on the Lord of Light's face, and with a forceful push of his arm, he aggressively pushed forward.

Boom~
The massive bronze door was pushed open by a single hand of the Bright God, and as soon as the door was opened, countless terrifying attacks burst forth, resulting in a dazzling light at the door and a deafening cacophony of explosions that did not cease.

On the other side, Song Jian was enveloped in a huge mass of dark ice. He didn't know how long had passed, but his consciousness finally began to recover bit by bit. When he realized he was wrapped in a sphere of dark ice, there was a “boom” and the dark ice around his body spontaneously exploded into pieces that scattered all over the ground.

“What happened to me…” Song Jian's awareness was still somewhat blurry as he looked around, trying hard to remember everything that had happened before.

“Damn, I almost kicked the bucket this time!” Song Jian finally recalled the previous events, cursing with a frightened expression on his face.

He opened the system notifications and a series of dark gold system prompts blinded his titanium alloy dog eyes.

System: You have absorbed the power of the Xuanyin Ice Crystal and gained some insight into the Frost Law;
System: You have absorbed the power of the Xuanyin Ice Crystal and gained some insight into the Low Temperature Principle;
System: You have absorbed the power of the Xuanyin Ice Crystal and gained some insight into the Death Rule;
…

System: You have absorbed the power of the Xuanyin Ice Crystal, realized the Power of the Frost Law, and now the Frost Law power is slowly increasing;
System: You have absorbed the power of the Xuanyin Ice Crystal, realized the Power of the Annihilation Principle, and now its power is slowly increasing;
…

The series of dark gold system notifications stretched for seven or eight pages, each with over a dozen lines. In the end, Song Jian found that he had somehow gained insights into nine different Powers of Law, and there were still five or six others where he had some understanding, but no real breakthrough!

“How is this possible, can it really be this heaven-defying!” At this moment, Song Jian felt his inner strength seemed to have increased several fold; the surging power within him was like ocean waves rolling through his meridians one after another, giving him an almost transcendental feeling!

Song Jian even felt that with his full strength, a single punch could destroy the entire Luofu Divine Palace, leveling it to the ground! It was an illusion caused by the rapid increase in strength, and he needed some time to adjust to it!

“Direct usage would normally result in comprehending one or several Powers of Law, but I never expected that by using Swallowing the Sky to devour the entire Xuanyin Ice Crystal, I would absorb nearly all the contained Laws…” Song Jian couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter.

Although the Swallowing the Sky had transformed into the Law of Devouring, that didn't mean Song Jian couldn't perform Swallowing the Sky. It was just like those sword techniques that had been devoured by the Thousand Swords Art; Song Jian could still execute them similarly.

Moreover, after understanding the Law of Devouring, the effect of Swallowing the Sky had become even more terrifying than before. This time, after devouring the Xuanyin Ice Crystal, Song Jian had completely mastered the Law of Devouring.

“Right now, I should be even more formidable than the Lord of Space, right?” Song Jian clenched his fists tightly, his face wearing a smug smile.
