Mighty Lord

Chapter 1639: Chapter 587_3

Given the situation at the time, when Zhou Tian approached the location of the divine artifact, those ancient powerful beings surely wouldn’t have had no response.

Although they wanted to use the divine artifact to lure Zhou Tian in, those ancient powerful beings dared not truly let Zhou Tian steal the artifact. Thus, while releasing the information, those ancient powerful beings were preparing on one hand while waiting for Zhou Tian’s arrival.

Under those ancient powerful beings’ preparations, numerous traps had already been laid around the divine artifact beforehand. Even if Zhou Tian were to approach the artifact, once those ancient powerful beings activated the traps, he probably would have difficulty getting even one step closer to the divine artifact.

In fact, just as Zhou Tian was preparing to seize the divine artifact in one fell swoop, after those ancient powerful beings activated the traps, Zhou Tian did indeed suffer a great setback at that moment.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" freewebnovёl.ƈom

Approximately one li away from the divine artifact, just as Zhou Tian was barely able to discern the appearance of the artifact within the barrier, a series of explosions suddenly occurred in its vicinity.

The explosions came so suddenly that Zhou Tian had no preparation beforehand. As a result, when the explosions occurred, Zhou Tian was naturally caught off guard. Moreover, those ancient powerful beings spared no expense, and under the onslaught of the explosions, Zhou Tian didn’t even understand what was happening before his flesh body was blasted to pieces.

However, fortunately, although the traps prepared by those ancient powerful beings were incredibly powerful, after all, they were not in the Divine Realm. Items with huge power and the effects of rules were not many in the hands of those ancient powerful beings. Thus, although the intensity of the attack Zhou Tian faced was not slight, due to the lack of internal rule abilities, the actual attack couldn’t take Zhou Tian’s life.

Even if it seemed that Zhou Tian was killed by the traps set by those ancient powerful beings, in fact, due to the absence of rule abilities in the attack, Zhou Tian’s Human Emperor’s immortal body was not affected. As long as the effects of the Human Emperor’s undying ability were intact, even if Zhou Tian was beaten miserably, there wasn’t actually any real danger in that moment.

Indeed, as soon as the series of explosions ended, Zhou Tian immediately used the Time Rule ability to start recovering his injuries.

As a result, under the effect of Zhou Tian’s ability, what seemed to be a pile of minced meat reassembled at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than a minute, Zhou Tian, who appeared to have been killed by the traps, was once again standing unscathed at the location of the trap.

Surviving such powerful traps was something Zhou Tian ought to be thankful for. If it weren’t for the fact that the other party didn’t have many tactics to restrict the Human Emperor’s Undying Ability, it’s estimated that Zhou Tian would have suffered a lot at the hands of those ancient powerful beings.

Now, although he was caught in a trap, Zhou Tian hadn’t suffered much damage. Based on the situation at that time, besides expending some energy, there wasn’t much difference between his state before and after encountering the trap.

But given the situation at the time, Zhou Tian’s expression was extremely unsightly after he recovered.

Although Zhou Tian wasn’t injured by the trap, in the process of falling into the trap and then recovering, he inevitably wasted some time. Although the time Zhou Tian wasted wasn’t very long, based on the situation at the time, after Zhou Tian wasted that much time, the originally favorable situation had suddenly become very unfavorable for him.

Given Zhou Tian’s arrangements before, he already had an opportunity to approach the divine artifact, and if he could grab the divine artifact before the other side reacted, Zhou Tian would have been the ultimate victor.

Yet now, although Zhou Tian’s delay was not too long, it was enough time to change many things.

Previously, the ancient powerful beings hadn’t expected Zhou Tian to have such tactics, so until Zhou Tian lured them away with his method and approached the artifact, most of the ancient powerful beings failed to react in time.

However, given the circumstances where Zhou Tian was delayed by the trap, those ancient powerful beings who hadn’t reacted before had naturally caught up in time.

Once they confirmed that it was indeed Zhou Tian’s true body that had broken in, aside from a portion of ancient powerful beings who remained vigilant, whether it was those stationed in other directions or those who had given chase, all of them immediately surrounded Zhou Tian at the first opportunity.

Given the speed of those ancient powerful beings, it didn’t take long for them to arrive near Zhou Tian. Taking advantage of their numerical superiority, those ancient powerful beings then promptly encircled the formidable foe, Zhou Tian.
