I have an Apocalypse City - Chapter 1686

Chapter 1686: Chapter 1687: Spatial Rift Chapter 1686: Chapter 1687: Spatial Rift From a distance, Song Jian had also witnessed this scene, and like Jess, a smile appeared on Song Jian’s face. This divine formation could potentially be broken through by force by Song Jian.

However, in the process of forcibly breaking through, Song Jian couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t be injured. The current situation was ideal, allowing the alien monsters to deplete the formation’s energy, and then he could easily break through.

A formation devoid of energy, even a divine one, could no longer protect itself. In the eyes of this master of formations, it was like a little girl stripped of her clothes, exposed in detail, allowing him to better understand and master the formation!

“I’m really looking forward to it!” Song Jian murmured to himself in a low voice.

…

Because of the massive energy consumption, the thunderclouds above the heads of the alien monsters began to shrink. As time passed, the thundercloud that had once covered thousands of meters had now shrunken to less than a hundred meters, and the damage from the thunderbolts had sharply diminished. What used to take one or two strikes to kill a Demi-God Level alien monster now required three, four, or even more thunderbolts to vanquish them.

When only five or six of the Demi-God Level alien monsters remained, Jess could no longer stay put. It was eager to break the defensive barrier and enter the Spatial Rift to search for the location of the temple.

With a mighty leap, Jess snatched up a Dark Gold longbow and shot at the light screen.

In an instant, dozens of arrows struck the light screen almost simultaneously, and the sound of “boom” was incessant, as the ripples on the outside of the light screen violently shook, as if they were about to shatter the next moment.

At that moment, a giant eye appeared within the light screen, fixing its gaze on Jess. The eye, over ten meters in diameter, stared intently at Jess, its pupil revealing a terrifying murderous intent!

“A formation spirit?” Song Jian narrowed his eyes and observed carefully. He had never seen a formation spirit like this before, a cyclops, and it was unclear whether it was an independent entity or part of a larger creature’s body.

If it were the former, it wouldn’t be much of an issue, but if it were the latter, Song Jian found it hard to imagine that just an eye could sustain a divine formation. What a fearsome and powerful being it would be if it were a complete creature!

Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed in the pupil of the one-eyed formation spirit, causing Jess’s heart to pound as if a great threat was imminent.

Whoosh~
A black beam of light shot out from the pupil of the one-eyed formation spirit, heading straight for Jess.

This attack was comparable to the full-force strike of a true divine being, not something even Jess dared to face head-on!

“Condense mist into a shield!” Jess chanted urgently. The mist that had previously enshrouded its body began to churn suddenly, then swiftly coalesced into a huge shield in front of Jess, large enough to cover its entire body.

Boom~
The black beam struck hard against the shield, which held for less than two seconds before it shattered, dispersing once more into a cloud of smoke.

Then, the black beam hit Jess hard, sending it flying dozens of meters away, crashing into a sand dune.

The remaining few Demi-God Level alien monsters glanced at one another and turned to flee, vanishing without a trace in the desert in no time at all.

Song Jian gazed at the few Demi-God Level alien monsters, suppress his inner urge to act impulsively. If all these Demi-God Level monsters could be fully condensed, it would definitely elevate the Five Elements Escape Skill to the Divine Level.

By then, Song Jian would have three skills enhanced to the Divine Level. The enhancement of the Five Elements Escape Skill to the Divine Level would provide a limited increase in Song Jian’s combat ability, but his escaping capability would multiply exponentially. In this perilous Divine World, preserving one’s life is of the utmost importance!

However, Song Jian ultimately did not give chase. After all, the value of this Divine-level array far exceeded that of a few Demi-God Level monsters, and moreover, there was an alien monster with Divine power present. If he could take it down, the Divine essence he would get was probably no less than those from the few Demi-God Level aliens!

Seeing the Divine-level alien monster got blasted dozens of meters away by a black beam from the Cyclopean Array Spirit and smashed into a sand dune, Song Jian did not immediately make a move but continued to wait patiently instead.

He did not believe that a Divine-level powerhouse could be killed with one strike by the Array Spirit!

After releasing that strike, the Cyclopean Array Spirit seemed to have been greatly depleted. Its originally open eye began to close up, and the half-open, half-closed Cyclopean Array Spirit began to fade, its translucent figure seemingly about to vanish at any moment.

No matter what array it is, it requires regular maintenance. Only those arrays capable of automatically absorbing the energy of heaven and earth to replenish themselves can exist for a long time.

Divine-level arrays generally have this effect, but it is only limited to sustaining the minimal consumption for existence. In situations like the present one, where constant confrontation with attackers occurs, even an abundant supply of energy will be completely depleted.

At this moment, the array’s light screen also began to flicker, and one by one, complex patterns slowly emerged from the screen. Song Jian felt a surge of elation and immediately applied his Perception Eye to scrutinize every pattern on the surface of the light screen.

In fact, these patterns looked extremely fine, barely perceptible to ordinary people. Even if seen, they would simply be thought of as mere cracks on the surface of the light screen. Only array masters knew their mysteries, and low-level ones, despite their knowledge of such matters, couldn’t perceive these magical patterns without sufficient cultivation.

Jace quickly flew out of the sand dune. By this time, his armor was shattered, and a large blackened trace was visible on his chest. Yet, his aura had not weakened in the slightest. Thick smoke began to reconvene around him, continuously churning and forming a series of different, horrifying faces.

“Break, break, break!”

Jace clenched his longbow, condensing one Light Arrow after another, each over a meter long. As soon as each was ready, he released it, striking the array’s light screen with fierce power.

It looked like a series of rapid-fire arrows, but in reality, Jace’s attack was much more terrifying than ordinary rapid-fire arrows. The strength of each Light Arrow was no less than the power of an ordinary Mage’s forbidden spell.

Boom, boom, boom~
A series of explosions resounded across the surface of the light screen, and the previously continuously rippling waves finally let out a crisp shattering sound. The screen was marred with a number of broken circular dents, and radiating from each dent were dense, spreading cracks.

At this time, through Song Jian’s eyes, the magical patterns on the light screen began to fracture rapidly after being struck by the Light Arrows. With each dent’s formation, a large number of magical patterns disappeared from sight, corroborating Song Jian’s insights into the Divine-level array.

Boom!

Finally, the entire light screen shattered, and the gigantic Cyclopean Array Spirit also began to disappear slowly. A profound Spatial Rift appeared before everyone, manifesting out of thin air in the void. Through the rift, one could catch fleeting glimpses of an imposing temple’s phantom, radiating endless Divine light.
