Mighty Lord

Chapter 1068: Chapter 427 Stone Statue _2

Consequently, akin to the mindset of those Bone Demons, when Zhou Tian had not yet ascended to the upper spaces, they had already started battling with the players of that layer.

Because the Bone Demons, who lived within the player’s Sphere of Influence, had limited areas to roam, the players were accustomed to the rules of Monster Hunting based on where they were. Therefore, when the underground monsters surged to the upper layers, unless they were unlucky enough to encounter a player preparing to head down, the players they met were naturally weaker than those they usually faced.

As a result, although the players had special abilities that prevented the Bone Demons from exploiting their numerical advantage, the battles still relied on strength. Thus, when those players were not stronger than the lower-level Bone Demons, the players naturally might not be able to defeat them.

In this manner, before Zhou Tian climbed to the next upper Underground Space, in that particular Underground Space, after the chaotic fights between the players and the Bone Demons, the side of the Bone Demons had already started to slowly gain the upper hand through their advantage in strength.

And when Zhou Tian, along with the Bone Demons, ascended to that level of Underground Space, the situation of the players naturally became even more unfavorable.

Zhou Tian had no intention to target those players; after all, it was impossible to kill all players, and Zhou Tian had no interest in wasting his time on killing them.

However, even if he did not target those players deliberately, when Zhou Tian unfolded his Personal World and Special Ability, countless Beastman Clone Bodies appeared, and the players lost their original shielding ability, which then became the source of their danger.

Ultimately, even though Zhou Tian did not target those players deliberately, based on his performance, wherever Zhou Tian went, the players in that area would definitely perish. Thus, just by his actions along the way, Zhou Tian had killed quite a number of players.

Thus, as he walked brazenly to the exit that led to the upper layers, Zhou Tian encountered another Barrier that was no weaker than the previous ones.

After his prior experiences, Zhou Tian, dealing with those Barriers, could not say it was his forte, but he would not find it difficult. Consequently, under Zhou Tian’s arrangements, coordinating with the Demon-Slaying Short Sword, Zhou Tian could often destroy those Barriers while advancing effortlessly. As he continued his advance, the Barriers placed by the NPCs within the Bone Demon Underground Space were also broken one by one by Zhou Tian’s abilities.

In the end, as Zhou Tian broke through the Barriers one by one, all the Bone Demons under the combined pressure and temptation, enlisted under him. And the Territory initially owned by the Bone Demons naturally came under full occupation by Zhou Tian.

However, even though Zhou Tian successfully occupied the territory of those Bone Demons, he still did not feel satisfied.

The Territory of the Bone Demons was indeed not small; having occupied their Underground Spaces, Zhou Tian was quite confident that his strength would be significantly enhanced shortly. However, from the beginning, Zhou Tian planned to use the situation within the player’s Sphere of Influence to annex all the Monster Territories within their control. Regardless of what Gains Zhou Tian could achieve ultimately, he would not let any Monster Territory he could annex slip by.

Thus, after occupying the Territory of the Bone Demons, Zhou Tian, harboring greater Ambition, naturally turned his Attention to other Monster Territories as well.

The territory of a Bone Demon might only slightly enhance Zhou Tian’s strength. However, if Zhou Tian was lucky enough to annex all the Monster Territories within the player’s Sphere of Influence, then needless to say, Zhou Tian’s strength would definitely achieve a significant Breakthrough, and it was possible he might Upgrade to another level.

As Monster Levels increased, breaking through became increasingly difficult, but after advancing one Level, his strength would definitely undergo considerable changes. Thus, if Zhou Tian could successfully Upgrade from his current Level, it was certain his strength would grow by hundreds to thousands of times.

At that moment, Zhou Tian already possessed the strength to confront those players, but wary of the player’s method of existence, he dared not engage them in a Hard Fight, which is why he repeatedly hesitated to openly confront them. However, if Zhou Tian did successfully Upgrade and managed to sever the player’s strength derived from the Gods and Demons Corpses, then it would not be difficult to drive those players out of this world from then on.

Therefore, knowing he could also annex the Monster Territories within the player’s Sphere of Influence, and because of the players’ "Help", Zhou Tian would not face strong Resistance from the Monster side during his annexation. Hence, after having occupied the Bone Demon Territory, Zhou Tian did not hesitate to set out once again.

However... ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Just as Zhou Tian was preparing to leave the Bone Demon Territory to head towards other Monster Territories, he did not expect to be stopped at that moment by the guard forces prepared by the NPCs.
