Chapter 1646: Chapter 589_2
Even with Zhou Tian’s strength at that time, it would have been equally difficult for him to escape death. Given the power of the explosions at that time, it can be imagined that if the ancient powerful beings were caught in it, they would have been doomed as well.
Under normal circumstances, when Zhou Tian used crystal bombs, the ancient powerful beings who had suffered losses from them surely would not have been unprepared. With their deliberate defenses, Zhou Tian estimated that no matter how many crystal bombs he threw, they would hardly pose a threat to them.
However, the tactics Zhou Tian used at that time were too special. Without witnessing them firsthand, how could those ancient powerful beings have anticipated that Zhou Tian would resort to such tactics? Thus, when Zhou Tian suddenly detonated the crystal bombs, the ancient powerful beings, unprepared for such a ’Perish Together’ move, naturally had no defenses in place. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Furthermore, at that time, the ancient powerful beings were in the midst of chasing Zhou Tian. Under those circumstances, when Zhou Tian suddenly set off the crystal bombs in his hands, not only were the ancient powerful beings unprepared, but they were also quite close to the center of the explosion due to their actions.
As a result, Zhou Tian, the instigator, was directly ’killed’ by the blast, while the ancient powerful beings near him also met with no good end.
Almost immediately, the area around Zhou Tian was completely cleared by the blast. Both Zhou Tian and the ancient powerful beings nearby, without exception, met with a fatal end at that moment.
As for Zhou Tian, he was somewhat better off. With the effect of the Human Emperor’s immortal body, even though he was blasted terribly, he did not lose his life. Instead, relying on his Time Ability, Zhou Tian quickly recovered from his injuries.
On the contrary, the few ancient powerful beings closest to Zhou Tian need not be mentioned; completely unprepared, their fate was not much better than Zhou Tian’s. Without the protection of an immortal body, those ancient powerful beings died at the hands of Zhou Tian in the explosion.
Afterward, even the ancient powerful beings who were relatively near to Zhou Tian basically all suffered heavy losses. With only the results in mind, Zhou Tian, by simply carrying out a self-harming action, had significantly improved his predicament.
Considering Zhou Tian’s situation at the time, the reason he faced so many troubles was because he was besieged by so many ancient powerful beings. In theory, had there not been so many ancient powerful beings attacking him, Zhou Tian would have had no problem dealing with the situation.
Given the circumstances at the time, for each ancient powerful being less, Zhou Tian’s pressure would surely be reduced. Thus, the more ancient powerful beings that were lost in that situation, the easier it became for Zhou Tian.
As such, with one action, he managed to cripple several members of the other side, and even injured over a dozen of the ancient powerful beings in the blast. Considering the outcome of his actions, Zhou Tian had made a huge profit, even though he himself suffered as well.
However, although from the overall Battle Situation, Zhou Tian indeed greatly improved his circumstances through a series of efforts, at the moment his situation improved, he was simultaneously unable to achieve his goal.
Zhou Tian’s situation improved because his ’Self-destruction’ caused heavy casualties on the Enemy Side. By killing and injuring many ancient powerful beings, his predicament became much more manageable. It could even be said that Zhou Tian’s actions had increased his chances of escape by a tenth.
Nevertheless, while Zhou Tian’s move had good effects, it cannot be denied that his actions did not have much relevance to his initial goal. Or to put it directly, no matter what results Zhou Tian’s actions yielded, because of it, the goal that could have been achievable was now definitively impossible to reach.
Zhou Tian had intended to seize the divine artifact, and under that situation, approaching the ancient powerful being who had taken the divine artifact was what Zhou Tian urgently needed to do. But now, because of Zhou Tian’s actions at that time, no matter how significant the outcome, he could not change the fact that the ancient powerful being who took the divine artifact had already gotten away from him.
If at the beginning, although it was extremely difficult for Zhou Tian to seize the divine artifact, there was still a glimmer of hope. It’s not to say that with Zhou Tian’s strength he could definitely take the divine artifact, but with a bit of effort, there was still a possibility to achieve the goal. freewēbnoveℓ.com
But once Zhou Tian took that action, although he indeed inflicted great Damage on those ancient powerful beings, in the process of detonating the crystal bombs and recovering from his own injuries, he inevitably spent a considerable amount of time, and during that time, the ancient powerful being whom Zhou Tian had targeted had long retreated to an unknown location.
