I have an Apocalypse City

Chapter 1683: Chapter 1684: Just a Bit Chapter 1683: Chapter 1684: Just a Bit A distant roar, like a response, stirred the excitement of the divine child in the net even more; despite being cut until blood streamed down, it began to struggle desperately, shrieking wildly as it did.

“This looks bad!” The wanderer seemed to have thought of something, his face showing a hint of panic.

Song Jian’s thoughts moved, and he soared into the air, looking off into the distance; he saw a black line on the horizon, rapidly approaching their location.

“Damn it, is that a beast tide?”

Song Jian turned his head to see that two new gods had also flown to his side, looking towards the distant black line.

“All of them are divine children, at least at the Demi-God Realm…” Song Jian’s heart sank; if there were only a dozen or a hundred demi-god level divine children, the three deities could join forces without fear. But the number of divine children before them was in the tens of thousands, surging toward them like a tide, a force so immense, that even a Bright God would likely step back in avoidance.

“Escape quickly!” Upon seeing clearly, the wanderer didn’t hesitate and immediately flew in the opposite direction at great speed.

The ascetic sighed, gave Song Jian a glance, and also turned to leave, but he chose a different direction from the one the wanderer had taken to escape.

Song Jian understood that at this time, the three of them could not stay together; they had to flee separately, to at least have a two-thirds chance of getting away.

The dark gold net that covered the divine child on the ground began to slowly disappear, leaving only deep wounds, down to the bone, on its body.

Regaining its freedom, the divine child did not flee, but instead let out an angry roar at Song Jian in the sky, its eyes filled with a vengeful and venomous look.

Song Jian looked down with a cold gaze.

“Even if your companions do surround me, killing you would still be a very easy thing for me…” Song Jian murmured to himself.

Just as Song Jian tightened his grip on the Sky-breaking Sword, preparing to take down the divine child on the ground, he suddenly noticed that two bulges were rapidly swelling on the divine child’s back. Moments later, a pair of wings, covered in bone spurs and flesh membrane, tore through the bulges.

After a few flaps of the slimy wings, they quickly dried, and with a pair of wings, the divine child, rather than retreating, advanced, lunging towards Song Jian as if it planned to detain him for a moment.

Song Jian laughed in anger, a fierce look coming into his eyes, “You don’t know when to give up!”

Boom~
The Sky-breaking Sword swept through the air, and a massive furnace appeared above the divine child’s head, engulfing its entire body; the divine child was helplessly absorbed into the furnace.

In no time at all, the Red Lotus Karma Fire blazed fiercely, turning the entire furnace into a huge ball of flame.

After merging with the Main God Level Alchemy Furnace, the properties of the Karma Fire Furnace Sword Art received a significant boost; the properties of the Karma Fire Furnace were enhanced several-fold, such that even a true deity, once sucked into it, would have no chance of breaking free.

“Unless you reach the Main God Level, being reduced to ashes is your only fate!” Song Jian snorted coldly, paying no mind to the divine child desperately struggling inside the furnace. With a wave of his hand, he concealed the Karma Fire Furnace into the void, and in an instant, he himself entered the Shattered Divine Realm to hide.

Nova looked up at Song Jian, knowing every time Song Jian appeared in the Divine Country, it must be because a formidable enemy had emerged outside, and Song Jian had come to hide within the Divine Country.

“You really are the most LOW god I’ve ever seen!” Nova thought to herself, unable to help but recall the deities she had known, those who, even when faced with strong enemies, would fight to the death. Now that she remembered, Nova’s face turned red and her heart raced, as she couldn’t help but picture the other’s valiant figure at the height of battle.

“Ah, it’s a pity they fell too early…” Nova sighed. Somehow, she felt that perhaps only someone like Song Jian could manage to live a long life.

“If I hadn’t been so…” Nova suddenly thought of herself and let out a sigh. “I wouldn’t be reduced to a mere wisp of a remnant soul, struggling to survive in the body of a wood spirit…”

“If only I had been a little more cautious back then…” Lost in thought, Nova stared blankly at Song Jian, who was in the sky, falling into deep retrospection.

Song Jian had no idea what was going on in Nova’s mind, but he found it strange to see a wood spirit not working diligently and instead gazing at him like a fool.

“Could it be that another fanatical believer has appeared?” Song Jian wondered to himself.

In the Alter of Faith, he could check how many believers he had, divided into nominal believers, true believers, and fanatical believers.

In the fragmented universe, most of those who believed in Song Jian were true believers, with the occasional three or four fanatics. Nominal believers were rare, which was completely different from the followers of other religious deities.

Moreover, as long as he had enough divine power and could elevate the Alter of Faith a few more levels, he could guide the souls of his believers to the Divine Country. At that time, these believers could live forever within Song Jian’s Divine Country.

…

Who knows how long it took, but Song Jian emerged from the Divine Country, and now the Divine World was shrouded in night. Silence surrounded him. Looking around, the temple, which had already been dilapidated, seemed even more wrecked. The few pillars that stood stubbornly in front of the temple before were now shattered into fist-sized fragments, and the temple had collapsed further, as if the offspring of divine misfortune had been the angry sacrifice.

After thinking for a while, Song Jian summoned the Karma Fire Furnace once more. In the void, the once blazing Karma Fire Furnace had already extinguished; only the dark cyan furnace walls remained.

System: You have smelted the offspring of divine misfortune, Atusia (alien race), and gained 128 points of divinity!

NICE!

A joyous smile appeared on Song Jian’s face. Just a Demi-God Level offspring of divine misfortune granted him more than a hundred and twenty points of divinity; it was like a pie falling from the sky. To think that, even in the game world, a Demi-God Level BOSS would at best yield only twenty or thirty points of divinity.

“It really lives up to the Divine World!” Song Jian couldn’t help but exclaim. For a while, he felt a sudden urge to take down ten of them.

After hesitating for a moment, Song Jian poured all those hundred or so points of divinity into his Five Elements Escape Skill, hoping to raise this skill to a Divine level.

“If I put it in the Shattered Divine Realm, this much divinity could be transformed into divine power, which should be enough to upgrade the Alter of Faith by one level,” Song Jian thought to himself.

However, since there weren’t that many believers at the moment, and Song Jian still felt some aversion to the Power of Faith, there was no rush to upgrade the Alter of Faith. Having just arrived in the Divine World, it was more important to enhance his own strength and ensure a few more life-saving skills.
