Mighty Lord

Chapter 1136: Chapter 450: Upgrade

"I am not willing to give up!" The path to advancement was just before his eyes, and Zhou Tian was certainly unwilling to admit failure at this juncture. Facing the attack that grew increasingly close, after bellowing in anger, the only thing Zhou Tian could do was to brace his Demon-Slaying Short Sword in front of him.

"Boom... Bang!" In an instant, the ability of the Demonic Slaying Weapon had some effect, but even if the power of the Demonic Slaying Weapon was strong, it was impossible to compare with several Divine Weapons. As a result, the ability of the Demonic Slaying Weapon barely lasted less than a second before it was shattered by the combined attack of the Divine Weapons. Even the Demonic Slaying Weapon itself was directly obliterated by those attacks at that moment.

Right after Zhou Tian’s Demonic Slaying Weapon crumbled, the attacks from those Divine Weapons ultimately still struck Zhou Tian’s body. freёwebnovel.com

And considering the situation at the time, Zhou Tian’s predicament was as bad as it could get.

With his body unable to move and his abilities hardly effective, even the Demonic Slaying Weapon he could finally wield was now destroyed. Facing the assault of those NPC demigods in such a state of utter powerlessness, it would seem that Zhou Tian was indeed doomed.

However, fate does not abandon those who persevere, and just as the attack of the NPC demigods seemed poised to hit Zhou Tian, a smile appeared on his face at the very last moment.

Then, after a massive explosion, all of the NPC demigods near Zhou Tian perished in the blast. While Zhou Tian possessed a Time Ability that allowed him to Resurrect to some extent, let alone being restrained at the time, under such an attack, his Time Ability unavoidably suffered some interference. Thus, under that assault, technically, Zhou Tian should have been definitely dead.

Nonetheless, when that joint attack struck, even though those NPC demigods paid the cost of losing several members in their attempt to kill Zhou Tian, they couldn’t help but reveal a hint of joy at that moment after successfully ’killing’ their enemy. After all, having suffered numerous setbacks at the hands of Zhou Tian, the opportunity to take down such a formidable foe was a result they could accept, despite the heavy cost.

Just when the NPC demigods showed joy and prepared to turn back to eliminate the Beastmen under Zhou Tian’s command, their expressions changed abruptly, and they immediately turned their heads to look back at the spot where Zhou Tian was previously.

Turning back, the NPC demigods discovered that Zhou Tian, who had been turned to flying ashes under their attack, unexpectedly showed signs of Resurrection. They saw dust continuously flying back from all around the sky, and after a vast amount of dust gathered, Zhou Tian’s silhouette slowly manifested again.

"Impossible!" Upon seeing Zhou Tian, all of the NPC demigods couldn’t help but exhibit expressions as if they’d seen a ghost. They had reason to be astonished; even if Zhou Tian’s Strength were to increase tenfold, facing the situation just now, survival was utterly impossible. Zhou Tian should have perished after being hit by that attack, so how did he manage to survive?

Regardless of how Zhou Tian survived, for the group of NPC demigods at that time, the most important thing was still to kill the enemy Zhou Tian, and nothing else was as pressing.

"Boom!" Almost simultaneously, upon realizing that Zhou Tian was not dead, the NPC demigods immediately went into action. With well-coordinated movements, they gripped their Divine Weapons tightly and launched an attack on Zhou Tian together.

Following another combined attack, given the Attack Power of those Divine Weapons, Zhou Tian, without exception, was ’killed’ again by the NPC demigods.

But to the NPC demigods’ horror, despite having been slain by the Strength of the Divine Weapons once more, Zhou Tian still managed to reconstitute his Body at that time. Faced with that situation, it seemed as though all the NPC demigods’ previous efforts had been in vain.

The NPC demigods, unwilling to accept Failure, hesitated for a moment before launching a series of attacks once more against Zhou Tian.

"Boom, boom, boom..." After each Divine Weapon strike, Zhou Tian was annihilated by the attackers’ ensuing assault. However, no matter how many times Zhou Tian was annihilated, he inevitably recovered again and again. Given that scenario, the NPC demigods’ attacks didn’t seem to pose much of a threat to Zhou Tian.

On the contrary, while Zhou Tian was slain countless times by the NPC demigods but resurrected just as many, the predicament of those NPC demigods turned dire.

Though Divine Weapons were indeed immensely powerful, they also required tremendous Consumption as support. Even though the NPC demigods were strong, the pressure to sustain the Consumption of the Divine Weapons was nonetheless significant.

As a result, once or twice may have seemed inconsequential, but after launching so many consecutive attacks against Zhou Tian, and yet none of them posing any significant threat, the NPC demigods began to struggle to carry on.
