I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 496 The God of the River Has Arrived, and the Three Lords Are Shocked

The phantom finger collided violently with Gureta.

Silent and without a sound, not even the expected spark appeared.

In that instant, the two forces collided fiercely at the ultimate focal point.

"It actually... blocked it!"

Surprise appeared on everyone's faces; they could hardly believe that Gureta could withstand the power of the Demon Emperor's finger.

The several demon kings, already weakened, looked terrified and were deeply shocked.

The Demon Emperor's finger strike was actually blocked.

What was the origin of this tower, and how could it be so terrifying? A profound silence fell over the surroundings for several seconds.

Click!

A crisp cracking sound was heard.

In the distant horizon of the ancient city, a huge crack appeared.

Beyond the crack lies endless nothingness.

A terrifying aura permeated from that void, causing all the professionals to feel a chill run down their spines.

The sky has cracked!

The clash between the Demon Emperor and Gureta actually tore the sky apart!

The two individuals' power was too overwhelming, exceeding the limits of the lower space, thus shattering the sky.

Fortunately, the rift was far from the ancient city, and the spatial rift disappeared after only a few seconds.

The phantom of the Demon Emperor's finger dissipated, and Gureta returned to calm. It seemed like a draw.

At this moment, Jiang Chen's figure suddenly appeared outside the Ancient Thunder Tower.

A cold light shimmered in his hand, the condensed essence of the Ice God tightly clenched in his grasp.

Skill: Summon Frost Lich!

The Frost Lich appeared in response, streaking towards the location of the demon kings with a cold light.

"Oops!"

The Dark Lord cried out in alarm and tried to retreat.

However, their strength was now greatly diminished; although they reacted quickly, their movements were sluggish.

The Frost Lich crashed into the Demon Emperor's finger outside the spacetime tunnel with lightning speed.

A deafening roar erupted, and the frost shattered.

The Frost Lich self-destructed, unleashing power approaching that of a pseudo-god. The five demon lords were enveloped in icy aura, their shrill screams echoing throughout the air.

If they were in their prime, the Frost Lich's self-destruction might not cause much damage.

But now, they are severely weakened by the blood sacrifice.

The self-destruction of the Frost Lich is enough to pose a deadly threat to them.

Although the Demon Emperor's fingers were also covered by the cold air, they remained motionless, as if they didn't care about the cold at all.

This level of frost couldn't harm it in the slightest.

Jiang Chen had anticipated this and remained unmoved.

"The Ice God's chill..."

Jiang Chen seemed to hear a voice, but it also seemed to be just his imagination.

Then, with a flick of his finger, the frost on the five demon kings quickly dissipated.

At this moment, the five demon kings looked utterly wretched. Uncontrollably, they flew towards the Demon Emperor's finger, and the spacetime portal expanded in that instant, swallowing them all.

Immediately afterwards, the spacetime portal, along with the Demon Emperor's finger, vanished without a trace.

Jiang Chen did not intervene, because everything happened too fast for him to react.

The blood sacrifice only summoned the Demon Emperor's finger, and its power was limited.

Everyone in the ancient city breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had escaped from the clutches of death.

The Demon Emperor's attack was truly terrifying.

With just one finger, he suppressed the entire scene.

Feng Yiming also felt a wave of fear. He flew to Jiang Chen's side and said, "General Jiang, we really owe you a lot this time."

Jiang Chen shook his head. "If it weren't for me, the demons wouldn't have attacked the city. Fortunately, there weren't too many casualties."

Feng Yiming disagreed, saying, "Slaying demons is the responsibility of all humankind, and General Jiang is already a role model for us all."

Compared to Feng Xiu, Feng Yiming clearly knew better how to express respect.

Jiang Chen said, "I'd like to study the Ancient Tower further. Does Commander Feng allow me to?"

Feng Yiming nodded quickly, "General Jiang, please proceed."

The Gureta Tower stands in the city, open to the public for daily viewing.

But very few are truly qualified to enter.

Jiang Chen certainly qualifies as one.

After Jiang Chen stepped into the Ancient Tower again, the military's teleportation array lit up once more.

Three figures emerged from the formation.

The three possessed immense auras, and each was a god-level powerhouse.

After receiving Feng Yiming's request for help, they first rushed to the deep space, and then returned to the upper space through the space-time tunnel.

Finally, using the teleportation stone, they returned to the Ancient City of the Divine Dragon. From receiving the distress call to arriving at the location, they barely stopped, taking only ten minutes in total.

I thought Shenlong Ancient City could hold out for at least ten minutes.

Unexpectedly, the battle was already over when they arrived.

Feng Yiming bowed respectfully to the three men, "Feng Yiming, commander of the Ancient City Army, greets the three lords."

These three are all god-level experts in the military. One of them is from the Feng family and is named Feng Xinghe, an elder in Feng Yiming's clan.

The other two are brothers, named Yuan Zhenshan and Yuan Zhenhai.

Upon arrival, the two immediately took to the air to assess the battlefield situation.

"Yiming, no need for formalities. Is the battle over? Have the demons retreated?" Feng Xinghe asked urgently.

In terms of family relationships, Feng Xinghe is Feng Yiming's uncle. The two spoke quite familiarly during their conversation.

Feng Yiming said, "Yes, thanks to General Jiang. He controlled the Gureta and successfully repelled the demon army."

"General Jiang?" Feng Xinghe was somewhat puzzled, as he did not recall any generals with the surname Jiang.

Feng Yiming explained, "It is General Jiang Chen."

"Jiang Chen? So it's him." Feng Xinghe immediately remembered the name and was filled with curiosity about Jiang Chen.

This youngest human god general killed the Flame Demon King before reaching level 48, creating an astonishing record and surpassing the strength of many god-level powerhouses.

and many more!

Feng Xinghe suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "You mean Jiang Chen is here? Isn't he only level 50-something?"

Feng Yiming nodded and said, "When Jiang Shenjiang first arrived, he was level 52, and now he's level 53. According to him, he came to the lower space because of an accident." "Where is he?" Feng Xinghe asked curiously.

“They’re still in the Ancient Tower. They said they wanted to study it,” Feng Yiming replied.

At this moment, the two god-level powerhouses who came with Feng Xinghe had already flown over the ancient city, overlooking the entire battlefield.

They saw the corpses of demons scattered all over the ground, and their faces showed shock.

Clearly, the intensity of this battle was beyond imagination.

However, it ended unexpectedly quickly.

Feng Xinghe asked curiously, "Yiming, tell me in detail about the battle at that time."

“Okay!” Feng Yiming replied, and then recounted the scene in detail. The three listened, shaking their heads in amazement.

They had long known the power of the Ancient Tower; if they could control it, it would be enough to contend with, or even kill, a god-level expert. But they never expected Jiang Chen to actually do it, and even kill a demon king.

Finally, he forced the five demon kings to perform a blood sacrifice to summon the Demon Emperor's Finger.

In the end, even the Demon Emperor's finger could only share the battle with Gureta.

The whole process was like a myth or legend.

After listening, Feng Xinghe couldn't help but laugh and say, "It seems we really are getting old."

Another god-level expert sneered, "Hong Jishi is lucky to have taken in such an outstanding disciple."

"If you have the guts, go say that to Hong Jishi's face and see if he doesn't beat you up," Feng Xinghe joked.

"Afraid of him? I may not be able to beat him, but I still have to say what I have to say." The god-level expert showed no weakness.

"Alright, alright, you're not afraid of getting beaten up, you're amazing." Feng Xinghe shook his head with a smile. The three of them arrived at the square while chatting and laughing.

They had already noticed the soaring red light and knew that Jiang Chen had obtained the second "Primordial Rune".

As god-level powerhouses, they knew far more information than Feng Yiming.

They knew that the "Primal Runes" were not easily obtained, nor could they be acquired through mere effort.

The issues involved are complex and difficult to explain in words.

The three could only secretly envy each other.

"Jiang Shenjiang is truly a man of great fortune."

"Two 'Primal Runes'—how many people throughout history have possessed such a thing?"

"Moreover, these people all achieved extremely high levels of success in the end, with the worst reaching level 96 and becoming high-level god-level powerhouses."

在神级的层次中，同样存在着明确的划分。90至92级被视为低等神级，93至95级为中等神级，而96至98级则是高等神级。

Each level of difference represents a huge gap in strength.

Powerful individuals like Hong Jishi and Li Xueru have already reached the pinnacle of level 95, and are only one step away from becoming high-level god-level powerhouses.

It's worth mentioning that level 98 is a special case.

Although those who have just entered level 98 are also considered to be high-level gods, those who have reached the peak of level 98 and touched another level are far stronger than their peers and are called half-step super gods.

Similarly, level 99 powerhouses are also classified as near-godlike.

As for true superhuman beings, they have never appeared in the entire thousand-year history.

According to historical records, people like Jiang Chen who obtained two "Primordial Runes" were extremely rare. Without exception, they all achieved extremely high accomplishments, with the lowest being level 96, a high-level god.

It is foreseeable that Jiang Chen will also follow this path and become a high-level god-level powerhouse.

The three exchanged glances, and their opinions of Jiang Chen subtly began to change.

Meanwhile, inside the Ancient Tower, Jiang Chen was having in-depth discussions with Lei Xin.

The space where the Thunder Core was located was still submerged by an endless sea of ​​lightning.

During the process of manipulating the Ancient Tower, Jiang Chen discovered something unusual, which aroused his great interest.
