I have an Apocalypse City

Chapter 1685: Chapter 1686: Consumption Chapter 1685: Chapter 1686: Consumption Amidst the undulating dunes, a group of aliens were frantically attacking a barrier. Sparks flew in all directions and ripples appeared on the barrier’s surface, but it seemed that the aliens’ attacks hadn’t yet reached the defensive limit of the array.

Boom~
A lightning bolt, as thick as a bucket, plummeted from the sky and blew a Demi-God Level alien, who was fiercely attacking the barrier, to pieces. The aliens around it were all startled and immediately scrambled to the side, leaving a large empty space.

“Continue!”

A gloomy voice came from behind, causing the aliens to shudder. The next moment, as if a switch had been flipped, they began attacking the barrier with renewed frenzy.

The swirling thunderclouds in the sky grew larger, seeming to brew another strike, which made all the aliens assaulting the barrier tremble with fear. However, under the watchful eye of the alien leader enshrouded in a black mist behind them, they had no choice but to risk their lives and continue attacking the barrier, depleting the array’s energy.

Song Jian stood on a hill, looking towards the distance. The aliens swarmed like ants around the semi-circular barrier, numbering in the thousands.

What shocked Song Jian even more was that behind this horde of alien beasts stood a figure enshrouded in black mist, emanating an aura that belonged to a genuine Main Deity.

Boom boom~
The thunderclouds overhead seemed to lower a few notches, menacingly hanging over the heads of all the alien beasts.

Crack~
Lightning bolts, like silver serpents, danced wildly, striking down towards the heads of the Demi-God Level alien beasts.

One, two, three…

In just a few seconds, hundreds of alien beasts were directly reduced to dust by the lightning, with not even whole corpses left behind.

Song Jian’s heart chilled, acknowledging the terrifying power of the array. It had already surpassed legendary quality, and clearly, the array deep in the desert was a God-Level Array!

“A God-Level Array!” The thought alone ignited a fiery passion within Song Jian. In the Dragon Palace Treasure he had once glimpsed a corner of a God-Level Array. The Ten Thousand Dragons Array he had seen back then was also a God-Level Array, but alas, it had long been damaged and barely functioning, with only the Azure Dragon Array Method still active, its quality reduced to merely legendary.

But now, before Song Jian lay a complete God-Level Array, and just witnessing its power, he knew that these thousands of alien beasts could not shake the array in the slightest!

“One wonders what treasures are hidden within this array…” Song Jian couldn’t tear his gaze from the array, itching to explore it himself. If he had the chance to decipher this God-Level Array, his mastery of arrays would surely improve by leaps and bounds.

“I’ve reached the level of a master of arrays, and I’m just one step away from a Main God-Level array master. Perhaps this great array before me holds the key!” Song Jian thought to himself.

One after another, the unflinching Demi-God Level alien beasts kept attacking the God-Level Array, and the array’s backlash obliterated them instantly. The number of alien beasts dwindled, but the shadowy figure behind them remained motionless, seemingly content to use the lives of the alien beasts to exhaust the array’s energy.

Song Jian was also waiting patiently, waiting for the moment when the Main Deity-Level alien would act!

Half an hour later, what had been a horde of alien beasts numbering in the thousands was now reduced to but a few. They huddled fearfully in front of the barrier, around them a thick layer of gray powder–the remnants of their comrades shattered by the thunder.

“Continue!” The Main Deity-level figure behind them spoke, his voice deep and icy, causing the Demi-God Level aliens to shudder involuntarily!

“Roar~” A demi-god level alien creature seemingly couldn’t bear the oppressive feeling of being sent to death and actually turned into a wisp of smoke, fleeing towards the distance.

Hmph!

A cold grunt, and the god-level powerhouse took out a large bow from his chest and shot at the escaping wisp of smoke.

A golden light traced an arc across the sky and hit the wisp of smoke. Moments later, a heart-wrenching, agonized scream emanated from the escaping alien creature.

The alien creature emerged from its smoky state with a dark gold long arrow lodged in its back. The arrow seemed to come alive, extending several long barbs that deeply penetrated the alien’s spine, and then the arrow tip morphed into a large mouth full of fangs and started incessantly gnawing at the alien’s body.

The alien monster struggled desperately, but the chewing and tearing sounds clearly reached the ears of every other alien creature, causing them to shiver uncontrollably, their faces filled with terror.

The chewing and screaming continued for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea before slowly fading away. This demi-god level alien monster was actually devoured alive by this dark gold long arrow, not even a trace of residue was left behind.

“Continue!” The icy voice sounded again, and this time, the remaining demi-god level alien creatures, almost madly, attacked the barrier, appearing completely ready to die alongside the defensive array.

However, for them, perhaps being killed by the backlash of the defensive array’s thunderstrike was a form of release.

…

This was the second time Jess had discovered a Spatial Rift. The last time, the demi-god level Jess had plundered a deity’s god temple, gaining resources that allowed him to break through to the god level in just over a dozen or so, which in the eyes of others, was nothing short of a miracle.

This time, he had found a Spatial Rift in the desert, and it was also protected by a powerful god-level array method, which set Jess’s heart ablaze with desire.

One should know that an ordinary deity’s god temple would not have such strong defensive measures.

“A Main God Level god temple, perhaps this is a Main God Level god temple!” Jess thought to himself.

In fact, not all gods are willing to build their temples near the mountains of the Divine World’s Pantheon. Many Main God Level powerhouses prefer to build their temples in other places within the Divine World.

Because of the array method, this god temple was not revealed, so Jess didn’t know which deity’s god temple it was, whether it was brought down to the mortal realm due to a great disaster, or left behind after the deity’s fall.

But regardless of the situation, as long as he could breach the defensive array and enter the god temple, Jess would be able to harvest the inheritance left by a Main God Level deity!

Just then, a thunderbolt as thick as a bucket struck an alien monster fiercely. However, this time, the thunderbolt did not shatter the alien creature into pieces, nor did it take its life; it just caused severe injuries, leaving it on the brink of death.

Then, a second thunderbolt fell, and this time, it shattered the alien monster into pieces, turning it into a pile of black ash.

Jess’s eyes lit up, and a smile couldn’t help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

“The energy is finally about to run out, hahahaha!”
