However, just when that NPC demigod was full of confidence, thinking Zhou Tian posed no threat, Zhou Tian used his strength to harshly teach that NPC demigod a lesson.
Indeed, demigods and emperor-level bosses exist on the same tier, and due to the more complete power system of the demigods, a demigod of the same tier is generally much stronger than an emperor-level boss. Under such circumstances, it’s not only challenging for emperor-level bosses to defeat demigods, but even gaining a small advantage against them is extremely difficult.
Even though Zhou Tian was not a typical emperor-level boss, in the past, he could only gain a small advantage against those demigods at best. If he really wanted to take action against them, it would still be a considerably difficult task. freewebnøvel.com
Thus, based on Zhou Tian’s previous strength, the belief of that NPC demigod that his defense could withstand Zhou Tian was not unreasonable. Given the power he demonstrated, it wasn’t something Zhou Tian could easily break through previously.
It was those demigods, always acting out of habit, who were destined to fall at the same spot again today. After all, Zhou Tian’s strength at that time had improved significantly compared to before. Even if that NPC demigod had slightly strengthened his defenses using his old methods, it was still ineffective.
If that NPC demigod had chosen to dodge at that time, Zhou Tian admitted he absolutely wouldn’t have had any way to deal with him. After all, the strength of that NPC demigod was evident, and even though Zhou Tian had become stronger than before, he still couldn’t guarantee he could stop the NPC demigod’s movements in an instant and injure him during a dodge.
Fortunately, that NPC demigod had chosen to take the hit head-on. In such a case, without needing to consider too much, just using sheer strength to break through the opponent’s defense, Zhou Tian’s confidence in himself was extraordinarily high.
In the past, Zhou Tian couldn’t accomplish such a feat, but now his strength had increased significantly. Relying on his strength at that time, the NPC demigod’s defense might not have been completely useless, but as previously demonstrated by those NPC demigods, in the face of absolute strength, all tactics would still be overcome by the enemy.
Now, Zhou Tian was using the same tactics those NPC demigods had used against them. When that NPC demigod constructed a defense line based on his ability, thinking it could block Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian didn’t hesitate to strike down with his sword, rendering those NPC demigods’ defenses largely ineffective in the face of his current basic attributes.
It’s not to say the original defense of that NPC demigod didn’t weaken the power of Zhou Tian’s demonic slaying weapon considerably, but the force of Zhou Tian’s sword at that time was enough to break through the NPC demigod’s defense line. Thus, when Zhou Tian launched an attack with violence, the NPC demigod’s defense line was readily breached.
"How is this possible?" Having not expected Zhou Tian to possess such strength, the NPC demigod was utterly unprepared for Zhou Tian to attack his defense line. Thus, once it was breached, the NPC demigod no longer had the ability to resist effectively. As a result, under Zhou Tian’s attack, the NPC demigod didn’t even have time to react before Zhou Tian’s demon-slaying short sword had already struck him.
With one sword stroke, as Zhou Tian’s demon-slaying short sword cleaved into the NPC demigod, not to mention the strength Zhou Tian possessed at the time, even based on the sword’s own capabilities, it was sufficient to disrupt the NPC demigod’s survival abilities.
As a result, unprepared, and also faced with Zhou Tian’s overpowering strength, the NPC demigod’s attempts to resist were of little use. Thus, with one stroke of the sword, Zhou Tian managed to split his opponent in half.
Of course, given the abilities of a demigod, being split in half wasn’t so easy that it would lead to immediate death. Therefore, although it seemed Zhou Tian had already won, it wasn’t so easy for him to truly kill that NPC demigod.
In fact, as soon as Zhou Tian successfully split that NPC demigod in half, that NPC demigod immediately prepared to flee using his abilities. Even though Zhou Tian’s sword had wounded him severely, as long as he could escape and recover for some years, he still had hope of regaining his strength.
And just as that NPC demigod prepared to flee, those companions of his indeed came to aid him one after another. Without a need to, those NPC demigods wouldn’t just stand by and watch their companion be defeated by Zhou Tian, their enemy.
Given the strength of those NPC demigods at the time, they had the ability to stop Zhou Tian from killing their wounded companion. Indeed, Zhou Tian’s situation at the time wasn’t particularly good, and if they could hold Zhou Tian off for even a brief moment, their injured companion could escape.
However, in terms of strength, those NPC demigods did have the capability to stop Zhou Tian, but that was merely a theoretical possibility. In reality, after the battle progressed to this stage, Zhou Tian was determined not to let that NPC demigod escape.
Even if he was injured himself, he was absolutely resolved on killing that NPC demigod. When Zhou Tian acted with that mindset, the actions of the other NPC demigods weren’t very effective.
"I’m going all out." Deciding he must kill that NPC demigod, Zhou Tian faced the attacks of other NPC demigods and, gritting his teeth, chose to ignore them, focusing intently on the severely injured NPC demigod. When the attacks of the other NPC demigods struck him simultaneously, Zhou Tian gritted his teeth and, using his strength, launched another strike at that NPC demigod.(To be continued.
