I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1292 - Chapter 1292 Chapter 1294 Chaotic Sword Qi

Chapter 1292: Chapter 1294: Chaotic Sword Qi Chapter 1292: Chapter 1294: Chaotic Sword Qi Song Jian sensed a mass of energy rapidly approaching beneath his feet. Looking down, he saw a streak of dark purple flame soaring into the sky, quickly lunging towards him.

With a slight frown, Song Jian snorted coldly and spread his Chaotic Heavenly Wings behind him. His figure, like lightning, dashed towards the exit overhead, which seemed no larger than the mouth of a bowl.

Just as Song Jian flew out of the underground structure, a handsome man dressed in a long purple-black robe followed suit.

The Evil Fire Phoenix Nuo Stan flew into midair and stared at the Death God statue at the cave entrance for a long time. His face took on an increasingly stern expression.

“Hmph, a mere Death God worthy of worship?” Nuo Stan scoffed with a cold laugh, lifting his right hand as a mass of dark purple-black flame ignited fiercely in his palm.

Afterward, Nuo Stan directly threw the ball of dark purple-black Flame towards the statue at the cave’s entrance. In an instant, the statue, made from highly fire-resistant obsidian, melted within mere seconds, eventually turning into a pool of magma that flowed down the stone stairs towards the underground complex.

Song Jian could sense a terrifying aura emanating from the man before him, the same aura that had radiated from the girl in the town earlier, understanding that he was no match for this man.

“My mission is already accomplished. Although it wasn’t by my own hand, that Necromancer is indeed dead…” Song Jian thought to himself, already contemplating retreat.

At this moment, Tang Li’s face was filled with shock. Although his level and power were not high, as a player brave enough to venture into the wastelands of Dragon Lake, keen eyesight was essential. He could see that Song Jian was very wary of the man, and the man’s strike had instilled real fear into Tang Li.

“That kind of flame, if it burned on me, would probably turn me directly into ash…” Tang Li thought to himself, looking at the few skeletal giants on the brink of death. His figure, however, began to slowly fade as he moved towards a low hill behind him.

All of the Evil Fire Phoenix Nuo Stan’s attention was now on Song Jian. After his sleep was disturbed by the Necromancer, his first act upon waking was to finish off the annoying Necromancer, then he turned his attention to the second creature he saw.

“Human, you have disturbed the slumber of the great Nuo Stan…” Nuo Stan said, looking down at Song Jian with disdain, and spoke loudly, “To appease my fury, offer your body and soul, and I might consider forgiving your transgression!”

As soon as Nuo Stan’s words ended, Song Jian swung his Sky-breaking Sword fiercely at him.

Opening Heaven!

A humming sound reverberated across the hills, and in an instant, Song Jian’s Sword Qi Value was drained completely. His face was devoid of any color.

Meanwhile, a giant axe rapidly materialized in the sky, different from before, today the handle of the axe bore a hand tightly gripping it.

The hand appeared somewhat translucent, with nothing but emptiness at the wrist. The moment the hand grasping the axe appeared, Song Jian seemed to suffer a backlash, unable to help spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood. His face turned pale, and his legs lost their strength, causing him to kneel directly onto the ground.

Spirit Points and Vitality Points were drained by about a third. Song Jian was startled yet filled with anticipation. He had never given up cultivating the Chaos Sword Canon, and with the improvement of his level, he had made some progress with his technique.

In the past, to execute the Opening Heaven Style, he needed to first perform the Thousand Swords Art, using the Sword Formation to evolve smoothly into the Sword Qi Sky-Axe.

If he usually executed the Opening Heaven Style directly, its power often fell short compared to the Sword Qi Sky-Axe within the Thousand Swords Art.

But now, under the pressure of the Evil Fire Phoenix Nuo Stan, Song Jian executed that move directly, and with all his might at that. Although the Opening Heaven Style had undergone further changes, these were changes that the current Song Jian could not control for the time being, causing him to suffer backlash from this technique.

A strand of Chaos Sword Qi, following the execution of the Opening Heaven Style, slowly circulated through the meridians within Song Jian’s body. As this Chaos Sword Qi moved, his meridians began to fracture and break apart segment by segment. It felt as though a stream of magma was flowing inside him, not cultivation but more akin to a form of torture. Yet this strand of Chaos Sword Qi was not something he could end whenever he wished; he could only clench his teeth and endure until it dissipated.

Boom–

As the giant axe appeared in the sky, peals of thunder resounded, and the scornful look in Evil Fire Phoenix Nuo Stan’s eyes turned serious.

Behind him, the phantom of a phoenix burning with purple-black flames slowly emerged, its wings outspread as it let out a crisp cry.

“Evil Phoenix Breaking the Sky!” With a fierce shout, Nuo Stan not only didn’t retreat but advanced, soaring into the sky and throwing a punch at the giant axe above.

The fiery energy in the sky, brilliant and splendid like the phoenix’s feathers, dyed half of the heavens a dark purple. A colossal phoenix charged towards the giant axe in the sky with tremendous force.

A resounding boom echoed through the area for several kilometers around, with gusts of wind sweeping through the sky and the ground trembling incessantly. Hills crumbled entirely, and large chunks of hard rock were ground into fine sand by the overwhelming energy in the air.

Tang Li only felt a tremendous force coming his way, and then everything went dark. He knew nothing more as his body, like a leaf, was swept away by the fierce wind, blowing him dozens of miles away.

At this moment, Song Jian’s face was etched with shock. It was the first time he had ever seen someone daring to clash head-on with the Opening Heaven Style. In no time at all, the threat level of the Evil Fire Phoenix Nuo Stan had rapidly escalated several notches in his mind.

With the end of this clash, the strand of Chaos Sword Qi within Song Jian’s body also began to slowly dissipate. After the Chaos Sword Qi faded, Song Jian’s powerful recovery abilities kicked in. His previously severed meridians started to gradually heal, the backlash disappeared, and his strength returned to his body.

Oddly, his Sword Qi, which had been depleted, suddenly filled up again after the Chaos Sword Qi had circulated for a moment. It seemed that even just a strand of this Chaos Sword Qi, transcending thousands of points of his Sword Qi in quality, could instantaneously restore the Sword Qi that had been exhausted.

Song Jian struggled to his feet and couldn’t help but sigh, “It’s a pity that my body’s strength is not enough to contain that strand of Chaos Sword Qi, otherwise…”

The Chaos Sword Qi was highly condensed and would only appear when Song Jian executed the Opening Heaven Style. It manifested as but a mere strand each time. If Song Jian could capture this strand of Chaos Sword Qi and nurture it within his body, he would only possibly have the chance to replace all the Sword Qi in his body with Chaos Sword Qi in the future.

By then, any ordinary sword move executed by Song Jian would be ten times, a hundred times more powerful than before. The power of Chaos Sword Qi was incomparable to that of ordinary Sword Qi; otherwise, the Chaos Sword Canon would not possibly be the Ancient Sword Sect’s treasured legacy.

At that moment, a figure slowly descended from the sky, his right fist soaked in blood, dripping down drop by drop. The blood upon touching the ground ignited into clusters of purple-black flames.

“Human, I didn’t expect you would be able to wound me…” The Evil Fire Phoenix licked the wound on his right hand, a nefarious smile spreading across his face.
