I have an Apocalypse City - Chapter 1519

Chapter 1519: Chapter 1521: Blood Boiling Chapter 1519: Chapter 1521: Blood Boiling “Kadom, the Life and Death Grass is mine, don’t even think about stealing it!” From the sky, a colossal barbarian’s palm descended, bearing some resemblance to Song Jian’s Sword Qi Palm Imprint, covering the entire tomb beneath it.

Inside the underground hall, the statue swallowed the Life and Death Grass, and burst into laughter. On its shoulder, the seemingly insignificant mantis behemoth let out a sharp screech. Its wings behind vibrated, and it charged toward the airspace of the underground hall, breaking through and creating a hole about two meters in diameter, flying out.

Following that, the statue swung its fist up toward the ceiling, and soon, on top of the already existing two-meter-wide hole, it smashed out another hole big enough to allow itself to pass through.

Debris fell like rain. Song Jian didn’t have time to read the mission again and started ducking for cover everywhere. After a series of booms, a colossal hole appeared above the underground hall, revealing a passage over a hundred meters long directly above Song Jian.

Outside the passage, the sounds of battle were relentless, as if two deities were fighting. Song Jian opened the mission tab and read through the mission from beginning to end once more, and his face immediately turned sour.

Surviving an hour of chase by a deity-level barbarian? Considering the strength of a deity-level barbarian, they could probably kill Song Jian with just a flick of their finger, let alone needing an hour.

“I hope you both suffer injuries!” Song Jian couldn’t help but say as he listened to the battle outside the tomb.

Taking advantage of their battle, Song Jian immediately used the Earth Escape Skill, fleeing towards the distance.

In his mind, the countdown was getting smaller and smaller. It now showed only 180 people, and that number changed every second as more and more people died or were eliminated from the Bloody Arena.

In the sky, the frequency of the Bloody Arenas appearing was increasing; they no longer provided a chance for desperate people to escape but seemed to be entering the final phase, where as long as two outsiders were within a certain distance of each other for enough time, the Bloody Arena would activate, capturing both to fight to the death.

This forced even the prodigies of the Human Race to stop moving together and start acting like lone wolves, moving individually. This increased their danger severalfold as they could be encircled by barbarian cavalry. If a fight broke out and they couldn’t quickly shake off the encirclement, their only fate would be death.

Song Jian exerted his full power in using Earth Escape. In the mission tab, a sixty-minute countdown appeared, giving Song Jian a feeling like living on borrowed time.

Boom~
The roar of the battle behind him was clear in Song Jian’s ears, even from a thousand miles away. A full-force battle between two deity-level warriors was an absolute disaster for their surroundings!

Time passed by the minute, and soon the first twenty minutes were up. Song Jian’s body suddenly stiffened, his Vitality boiling as if it had reached a fever pitch, his temperature skyrocketing by several tens of degrees. His body felt like it had turned to stone, beyond his control.

Song Jian collapsed stiffly into the dirt, completely defenseless. If someone attacked him at this moment, even a regular first or second-tier powerhouse could kill him.

For a full ten seconds, the sense of danger grew closer. Those ten seconds felt like a death sentence to Song Jian.

After ten seconds, the boiling blood inside Song Jian slowly began to cool down. By then, tens of thousands of barbarian cavalry had appeared around him, seemingly having received some signal, converging on Song Jian’s position.

Boom~
In the sky, a gargantuan barbarian over ten Zhang tall appeared. He was the only god among the barbarians. Now, of his seven heads, only five remained, with two head positions blurred as mere phantoms. Of his twelve arms, only eight were left, with the rest cleanly severed.

The barbarian’s eyes were full of angry Flame as he opened his mouth to spew a breath of fierce Flame down toward the ground where Song Jian was located.

In an instant, flames surged, engulfing an area of over a hundred meters, and within this region was Song Jian.

Fire Escape Skill!

A red flash of light was fleeting in the midst of the flames, soon reaching the edge of the fiery blaze, and then plunged into the dark rocky soil.

The flames burned for over a minute, with Song Jian disappearing from the perceptions of the barbarian deity, losing the lock that the boiling blood had provided. Capturing Song Jian proved to be exceedingly difficult, and the barbarian deity had no good solution to counter the Five Elements Escape Skill.

“Don’t let me find you, otherwise, I will tear you to pieces!” roared the barbarian deity, resounding through the skies. Everyone in the Bloody Arena’s region visualized the image of the barbarian deity in their minds, hearing his roar in their ears.

For a moment, almost all the barbarians abandoned killing each other and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the pursuit of Song Jian. Across the land, barbarian cavalry squads of more than a hundred riders could be seen everywhere, sweeping through the Bloody Arena area like a fishing net, inspecting every inch of the land.

A scion of the Human Race hiding in a mountain hollow watched as a squad of barbarian cavalry galloped by less than a hundred meters away from him. The tribal leader of the barbarians, with three heads and six arms, glanced in his direction, his gaze cold and murderous, but did not charge at him. It was as if he was looking at a roadside weed or an ant, utterly beneath his concern.

“He, he spotted me!” The scion of the Human Race hiding in the hollow trembled, for even though he was at the Legendary Realm, among that squad of a hundred cavalry, at least a dozen were at the early stage of the Legendary Realm, and the rest were at the Third-tier Peak. With his strength, even if the dozen Legendary Realm barbarian cavalry didn’t make a move, the several dozen barbarians at the peak of the Third-tier Combat Power could easily besiege and kill him.

The scion of the Human Race, who narrowly escaped, shakily stepped out from his hiding place, watching the dust kicked up by the departing barbarian cavalry, his mind filled with question marks.

“Why didn’t they come to kill me?”

Before his question could be answered, the sound of iron hooves approached from the left. Turning his head, he saw another squad of barbarian cavalry charging towards him, and he was right in their path.

Just as he panicked and prepared to escape far away, an arrow’s glow flashed before his eyes, and a wolf-fang arrow over a foot long viciously burrowed into his chest, blasting his body into the air.

In midair, the barbarian cavalry moved with incredible speed. The leader swung his blade forward, and blood sprayed everywhere. The airborne scion of the Human Race had his waist nearly severed, blood gushing out, his organs severely damaged.

Thump!

The scion of the Human Race crashed to the ground. Then, hundreds of riders trampled over him, turning him into a pile of flesh. The barbarian cavalry’s pace didn’t even slow slightly, as if they had casually crushed an ant while storming through.

The number in Song Jian’s mind grew smaller, and by the second twenty-minute mark, it had reduced to ninety-eight people.

Boom~
A wave of heat assailed him, and Song Jian’s blood felt as if it were nearly evaporating, with hot steam emanating from his pores. In a moment, darkness fell before Song Jian’s eyes, and he collapsed right there on the spot.

At that moment, all the galloping barbarian cavalry simultaneously pulled on their reins. After a brief pause, they all charged in one direction.
