Mighty Lord

Chapter 1023: Chapter 412 Crisis After the Return_2

"Ah..." Had it been a typical attack, any non-natural force would have dissipated upon meeting the Demonic Slaying Weapon. Unfortunately, the assailants this time were a group of demigods, which meant that Zhou Tian was unable to achieve the desired result when using the Demonic Slaying Weapon to resist the enemies.

As a result, although the Demonic Slaying Weapon significantly reduced the power of the demigods’ combined strikes, they eventually landed heavily on Zhou Tian with a resounding crash. With that onslaught, Zhou Tian, having run out of tactics, had to rely on his flesh body to protect the Relic Continent below.

In the midst of screams, Zhou Tian was hammered with severe injuries by the demigods’ combined strikes. However, after enduring their assault, the Relic Continent beneath Zhou Tian’s feet was fortunately preserved under his protection.

Yet, Zhou Tian had only just begun to fend off the demigods’ attack when they immediately launched another combined strike against him, not dissuaded by his initial resistance.

Strike after strike, the demigods clearly did not intend to let Zhou Tian leave alive. And given their manner of attack, Zhou Tian wouldn’t be able to hold on for much longer with his abilities.

Under the relentless attacks of the demigods, Zhou Tian simply endured each blow in succession. Leveraging his considerable strength, he was fortunate enough to defend against the demigods’ combined strikes several times. freewebnσvel.cѳm

From the looks of it, Zhou Tian couldn’t possibly last very long under those circumstances. If nothing unexpected happened, he would likely perish after a dozen or so combined strikes. That was under the assumption that the demigods were holding back due to their lack of direct conflict with Zhou Tian and their unwillingness to waste too much energy on him, otherwise, Zhou Tian would have already lost his life by now.

In any case, it was not in Zhou Tian’s best interest to continue resisting the demigods at this point. For his own safety, he should consider abandoning the hard fight against the demigods and find a way to slip away from under their watch.

However, in the face of such circumstances, Zhou Tian did not back down from the demigods. Instead, as it looked like the demigods were about to kill him, he even revealed a smile.

"It’s too late."

"What?" The response from Zhou Tian alerted the demigods, and one after another, their expressions changed.

It turned out that, while the demigods were continuously attacking Zhou Tian, the Ancient Ruins Space had, unbeknownst to them, begun to fully integrate into the Main Plane due to its attraction. The rules of the Main Plane had started to take effect on the Ancient Ruins Space, and once the Relic Continent, already fragmented into hundreds of pieces, was completely absorbed into the map of the Main Plane, it would then truly become part of the Main Plane.

Despite the significant risk, the end result was a partial victory for Zhou Tian. Even under the suppression of so many demigods, he had managed to hold on until the moment he returned to the Main Plane.

Once back in the Main Plane, the demigods would constantly face suppression from the World Consciousness. Under those conditions, even if the demigods were extremely powerful, they probably wouldn’t want to stay in the Main Plane for long. And once the demigods left, Zhou Tian would then be safe.

However, just when Zhou Tian thought he was safe upon enduring long enough to reach the Main Plane, he was unexpectedly met with a sudden assault.

"Boom!"

Instinctively, Zhou Tian raised his Demonic Slaying Weapon. Although its power greatly diminished the attack, Zhou Tian was still blasted away.

"What’s going on?" Zhou Tian was stunned. He had assumed that once he could hold on until he reached the Main Plane, the demigods would naturally retreat. Now, however, it seemed he had been mistaken, as the demigods hadn’t the slightest intention of sparing him. Even after accompanying him to the Main Plane, they still hadn’t given up the notion of killing him. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

"You think you’re safe just by getting back to the Main Plane? You underestimate us way too much. Even if the World Consciousness intends to suppress us, what of it? With our strength, we come and go as we please. Do you really think your newly developed Epoch has the power to keep us at bay?" Just like a cat playing with a mouse, a demigod not only ceased their previous attacks targeting Zhou Tian but even kindly explained the reason behind that next attack.

Having heard the demigod’s words, what could Zhou Tian say at that moment? Other than a bitter smile, he had no means to counter the demigods at all.
