I have an Apocalypse City-Chapter 764 - : Demon Slayer Canyon
Chapter 764: Chapter 764: Demon Slayer Canyon
Zack only had 1,800 Vitality Points. Even though he was at level 33 and possessed the Undead Bone Wings, he had not passed the first rank combat power test. He was a formidable adversary for an average player, but in front of Song Jian, he was inconsiderable.
As the four long swords danced around, spouts of blood shot from Zack. Even his Undead Bone Wings were reduced to two damage-ridden main bones.
“Impossible, how could your damage be so high?” In less than ten seconds, Zack was soaked with blood, with only 300 Vitality Points remaining.
He looked at Song Jian with fear in his eyes, like facing the Death God himself. He lost all his courage to fight, only thinking about how to escape;
There was a large group of players a dozen meters behind him. Those who were observant noticed the disheveled Zack and slowed their rush towards him, much to Zack’s frustration. If these players could hurry, they might provide him a chance to escape.
But now, facing Song Jian with full Vitality, Zack was filled with despair;
Flash Thunder Strike!
All four long swords flew into the air, then slashed towards Zack. Flashes of lightning sparkled on the swords, finally striking Zack with a mighty force.
Boom, boom, boom~
The camera flashed as if it was daytime, Zack took three lightning strikes, and his Vitality Points hit zero. The remaining strikes were raining down on his unresponsive body;
Song Jian scooped up a dimly silver item that Zack had dropped, glanced at the players rushing towards him, and his figure instantly turned transparent, disappearing on the spot.
A successful ambush was avoided by Song Jian using the Soul Wander skill. Even without any losses, Song Jian was reluctant to experience death again even if he could use the passive skill “Enemy of Death God”.
But through this ambush, Song Jian understood that someone must have seen him leaving the Abyssal Hell last time. He would have to be more careful the next time he wanted to leave.
Running across the wilderness for a day and a night, Song Jian finally saw tall city walls in front of him. This was the main city, the Flame Furnace, in the Desolate Highland area.
Every brick of this city was made from molten red lava stones. The surface of the lava stones emitted soft, illusory flames, making the entire city built from lava stones look red-hot from a distance, as if it was constantly engulfed in flames. It resembled a giant furnace, which was the origin of its name the Flame Furnace.
Just as the city came into Song Jian’s sight, he suddenly received a system message:
System: You have discovered the City of the Flame Furnace, controlled by the sixth Abyss Demon King, Estantin. You have unlocked the map of the Desolate Highland;
In an instant, a large area of the Abyssal Hell’s map was illuminated. It was the entire map of the Desolate Highland area where Song Jian was now.
This made Song Jian’s journey in the Abyssal Hell much easier.
Upon seeing the city in the distance, Song Jian continued walking forward. He only realized when he got closer to the city that he probably wouldn’t be able to enter any of the main Abyssal Hell cities; at the gate of the Flame Furnace, a team of Abyss Demons with at least first-level peak combat power was guarding it.
Those entering and leaving the city were all creatures of Abyssal Hell and players with Abyss professions. If he approached as a human, he would definitely attract the attention of the city guards.
To find the thread of Abyssal Demon Flame left by the Abyss Demon King, at the very least, Song Jian had to enter the city’s library to learn about the history of the city over the past century and find clues from there;

But now Song Jian couldn’t even enter the city, let alone get into the library in it.
Song Jian sat on a small mound outside the city, frowning deeply;
Just then, a group of players with Abyss professions walked from a distance towards the main city. They were loudly discussing on their way and didn’t notice Song Jian, who was not far away from them, was gazing at them intently.
“How far along are you with your quest?” A man in leather armor with two short guns on his waist asked loudly to someone in the group.
“It’s too hard. I have no idea why, but my continuous quest has taken me to the Demon Slayer Canyon on the third ring. The monsters there are all above level 35, I can’t go in at all….”
“Haha, only you would be so lucky, to accept a hidden mission. Hey, do you guys think there’s something the Abyss Demon King has left in that canyon, why else would this mission be called the Benevolence of the Abyss Demon King?”
“This is a continuous mission. If there’s any inheritance, it would probably be on the final ring. I’m just on the third ring now, I guess I have to go to the Demon Slayer Canyon to get some quest items…”
As the group continued walking and talking, they swiftly passed the mound where Song Jian was laying in wait. They didn’t notice an invisible figure, laying upon the mound, watching them intently.
“Reportedly it’s to explore the information about the Abyss Demon Flame left by the sixth Abyss Demon King in an abandoned temple in Demon Slayer Canyon. I suspect that the final reward of this quest might be the Abyss Demon Flame left by the sixth Abyss Demon King!” The man who accepted the quest boasted.
“Abyss Demon Flame, you’re going to hit the jackpot if you get that. Isn’t your occupation a blacksmith? The Abyss Demon Flame is a Strange Fire. Your Forge Art would be top-notch. Remember to forge some equipment for your brothers!” Someone said enviously.
“We aren’t there yet. I can’t even enter the Demon Slayer Canyon, let alone complete the mission. Who knows when I will get the Abyss Demon Flame.” The man sighed and responded;
“We will help you with it. Tomorrow, we can go to the Demon Slayer Canyon together. With seven or eight of us, there’s no reason we can’t escort you to finish your quest, right?”
“Yes, yes! We don’t have anything better to do anyway. Let’s go to the Demon Slayer Canyon and help Little Bear finish his mission. But Little Bear, you better not forget your buddies if you really get the Abyss Demon Flame!” The group exclaimed together.
“Of course not, my Forge Art is already at level seven. If I really get the Abyss Demon Flame, Silver quality equipment for everyone, I promise!” The name Abyss Warrior, identified as Little Bear, patted his chest and assured loudly.
“Demon Slayer Canyon…” Song Jian slowly recovered from his soul state. He meditated as he watched the group walk away.
If he couldn’t enter the city, he might as well check out the Demon Slayer Canyon they mentioned. Perhaps he could find some information about the Abyssal Demon Flame there;
Thinking about this, Song Jian opened up the map and began to study it carefully;
