I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1700 - Chapter 1700 Chapter 1701 Chaos

Chapter 1700: Chapter 1701 Chaos? Chapter 1700: Chapter 1701 Chaos? In a matter of moments, hundreds of silhouettes appeared in every corner of the Main Deity’s temple, methodically collecting all items into their storage spaces. In just a few short minutes, a grand palace that spanned over ten thousand square meters was utterly emptied.

“Wait for me, it won’t be long before I return,” hundreds of identical figures turned back to look at the Main Deity’s temple and said in unison, creating a somewhat eerie scene.

Then, the figures one by one left the temple. It was at this time that something unusual happened; one of the figures froze mid-step as it was about to leave the Main Deity’s temple, petrifying into a statue that stood at the entrance of the temple.

“What’s going on?” all the figures halted simultaneously, turning their gaze toward the one that had turned into a statue, feeling completely cut off from that particular figure at this point.

Warning: You may only take what truly belongs to you. Items not owned by you are strictly forbidden from leaving the Main Deity’s temple, or else you will be punished!

“Items not mine?” The deity furrowed his brow, and after a moment as if realizing something, anger flashed across his face as he shouted, “Those items are mine, mine that I gained through the death of five Main God Level powerhouses, dozens of deities–it’s mine!”

In an instant, all the figures roared in fury, but a cold countdown appeared before their eyes, showing less than three minutes remaining.

After venting his rage, the deity was left with no choice but to glance one last time at his petrified clone standing inside the temple gate, his face twisted in a painful grimace, and he hastily left the Main Deity’s temple.

Once they had left the Main Deity’s temple, all the figures converged into one of them, and just like that, the petrified clone, now seemingly a completely different person, was irreversibly severed from him.

“Damn it…” The deity’s complexion turned ugly. Not only had he failed to take the most important relic, but even his ability to create clones had shown a flaw, leaving him with an intense feeling of loss outweighing his gains.

A quarter of an hour had passed, and all the deities had left the Main Deity’s temple, some even departing the God Mountain Range; at this moment, no one dared to challenge the rules of the system.

Soon, apart from the Pantheon at the peak of Mount of Gods and the already sealed Main Deity’s temple, the other nine temples started to show hints of a stone-like grey from their roofs. Within moments, these nine temples became petrified like the sealed ones, losing their divine luster.

“Are we just ordinary deities now?” One deity laughed bitterly, his face full of self-mockery. Once loftily superior, they were inexplicably cast down to the mortal realm, a fate strong enough to provoke crippling self-doubt in someone without a fortified spirit.

Meanwhile, Song Jian was diligently using the Time Law and faith divine power to hasten the ripening of the Paso Fruit Tree. Over three months, Song Jian had managed to ripen Paso Fruits five times, obtaining nearly twenty fruits. Within the Five Elements Law, he had added both the Law of Metal and the Law of Water. However, to Song Jian’s frustration, the Posuo Fruit embodying the Wood Law remained elusive.

The Law Fragments contained within the Posuo Fruit were completely random. Without the Wood Law appearing, Song Jian had no alternative. By now, the Power of Law he controlled had reached nine, equivalent to the peak of High God Level deities, just one short of reaching the Main God Level powerhouse status.

From an ordinary-level divine powerhouse to almost stepping into Main God Level, it had taken Song Jian merely several months; if other deities were to know this, they would be scared out of their wits.

You must understand that many gods of lesser strength have not seen any increase in their might over thousands of years; even for a Main God Level powerhouse, the rate of strength growth is not as terrifying as that of Song Jian!

Song Jian let out a breath, having spent several months constantly absorbing the essence of the Law of Devouring to enhance his control over the Power of Law, which left him feeling a bit vexed and restless.

The most speechless fact for Song Jian was that the divine name of the Pantheon had not yet been cultivated. Every time it was about to manifest, Song Jian would “timely” take control of a new law, plunging it back into the chaos vortex. Thankfully, the Pantheon did not have its own consciousness; otherwise, it probably would have endlessly complained about Song Jian.

At that moment, a dull bell toll resounded, causing Song Jian’s heart to suddenly leap, as if a giant hand had grasped his heart and squeezed forcefully. However, this uncomfortable feeling came quickly and vanished just as swiftly. At the same time, a system message appeared in Song Jian’s mind.

System: The Pantheon is about to open. All deities, please prepare yourselves. The number of divine positions within the Pantheon is limited, and one must compete with others to secure a place within the Pantheon! Ordinary divine positions: three hundred and sixty; Main God Level positions: twelve; God King position: one.

“Divine positions need to be contested for acquisition? Three hundred and sixty divine positions–is there really that many gods in the Divine World now?” Song Jian was a little surprised, thinking to himself, “But my divine name has not yet been cultivated, and I can’t fully control this Pantheon, nor have I established a connection with the Pantheon. How can I compete for a divine position in the Pantheon?”

The divine positions in the Pantheon were actually an alternative honorary ranking list. Those deities who occupied a position in the Pantheon were undoubtedly powerful, like the two deities who had fallen to the mortal world and been killed by Song Jian–they likely did not possess any divine position in the Pantheon.

Song Jian stared at the chaos vortex on the sanctuary plaque, which was brewing a divine name. After contemplating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and extended his right hand, causing the Power of Law to suddenly envelop the entire plaque.

Soon, the chaos vortex on the plaque began to spin rapidly, and a complex divine script appeared on the first character of the plaque.

“Time?” Song Jian narrowed his eyes, focusing on the divine script. Though he did not recognize the script, at the moment of its clarity, he immediately understood its meaning.

Quickly, more divine scripts appeared on the sanctuary plaque, causing the Spatial Rift to tremble slightly. In an instant, Song Jian suddenly found that he had control over the entire region within the Spatial Rift, just as he did with the Shattered Divine Realm.

At the same time, a flame burst forth on the sacred bell in front of the Pantheon. However, amidst the dense array of the bell, this small flame was not noticeable. At the same instant, the Pantheon that Song Jian was in linked with the Pantheon, allowing Song Jian to teleport to the Pantheon through his Pantheon at any time.

“God of Time and Chaos?” Staring at the seven divine scripts on the plaque, a look of astonishment and doubt crossed Song Jian’s face. He grasped the Time Law, but regarding the Chaos Law, Song Jian had no clue whatsoever. So why did the cultivated divine name include the words ‘Chaos’?
