Chapter 3161: Chapter 1060:

After all, judging by appearances, the abilities and rule-based attacks of the three-eyed people at the time had quite a significant disparity.

Because the attacks of the three-eyed people seemed nothing like rule-based attacks, Zhou Tian instinctively thought that what the three-eyed people used wasn’t rule-based attacks at all. But even when Zhou Tian had already come to that realization, he hadn’t expected that when he truly began to study the abilities of the three-eyed people, he would quickly overturn his own conclusion.

No matter how different the appearance was, the attacks of the three-eyed people at that time could still be considered a kind of special rule-based ability.

When Zhou Tian began studying the abilities of those three-eyed people, he soon discovered that the reason he couldn’t move at the time was due to the ability of a few three-eyed people taking effect. However, upon investigating the situation, Zhou Tian quickly realized that the effect of the three-eyed people’s abilities was all due to the world’s rules working.

What made it hard for Zhou Tian to immediately realize the connection between the abilities of the three-eyed people and rules was simply due to the unusual method those three-eyed people used to employ the rules.

Generally speaking, in the outside world, rule-based abilities mostly involve first contacting rules through various methods, then integrating with and mastering them. Most living beings who practice the rules will directly use them to eliminate their enemies or achieve desired effects during combat.

Unlike the outside world, at that time, the power system of that realm was all rules collectively controlled and used by the internal living beings.

Situations like in the Divine Realm, where once a rule is mastered by a Divine King, other living beings can barely achieve anything with that rule, will never appear in that realm at the time. In that realm, no rule can be mastered by anyone. The abilities of the three-eyed people were merely utilizing one or several world rules to attack enemies. And given the situation at that time, even if the three-eyed people’s abilities were cultivated, as long as they could use one or several world rules to fight, at that time, their strength might not be weaker than a Divine King, but their mastery of the rules could never reach the level of a Divine King.

One proactively utilizes rules, while the other passively uses them. In this aspect, the cultivation system of the realm where Zhou Tian was was far less expansive than the power system of the Divine Realm.

However, despite the various shortcomings of the abilities of the three-eyed people, because of the peculiar power system of that realm at the time, its chances of being invaded were actually smaller than those of the Divine Realm.

At least when Zhou Tian understood part of the information about the three-eyed people’s abilities, he felt quite troubled. Given the situation of the three-eyed people at the time, Zhou Tian had to admit that altering their rules was a very challenging task. After all, the rules of that realm were almost immutable, and since Zhou Tian couldn’t change its rules, it certainly wasn’t easy for him to achieve his goals at the time.

However, although after understanding the information about the abilities of the three-eyed people, Zhou Tian had to admit that it seemed not easy to alter the rules of that realm to achieve his goals with his abilities. But at the same time, because Zhou Tian understood the information about the strength of the three-eyed people, it seemed not as difficult as he thought to cultivate the abilities of the three-eyed people.

Since all the three-eyed people were fighting by leveraging the rules of that realm, as long as Zhou Tian had the opportunity to connect with the rules of that realm, it seems obtaining the same strength as the three-eyed people wouldn’t be difficult.

Of course, although Zhou Tian had already known how to become a ’three-eyed person’ after understanding the essence of their strength, even now, though he knew what to do, truly acquiring the powers of that realm wasn’t an easy task.

At least one thing was certain: those three-eyed people who captured him would not give him the chance to gain power.

And given the situation at that time, rather than thinking about how to gain the strength of the three-eyed people, Zhou Tian might as well worry about how those three-eyed people would handle him. And under the arrangements of those three-eyed people, how he could ensure his safety while finding a way to acquire the strength of the three-eyed people.

Despite what was said at the time, Zhou Tian had already become a captive of the three-eyed people. Obviously, no matter how formidable Zhou Tian’s true identity and strength were, in the eyes of the three-eyed people, he was merely an item that could bring them benefit. In such a circumstance, Zhou Tian’s thoughts were unlikely to affect those three-eyed people since they had already made up their minds.

As a result, under the arrangements of those three-eyed people, Zhou Tian was quickly brought into the gathering place of the three-eyed people. Moreover, without alarming other three-eyed people, Zhou Tian was directly sent into a large building.

While Zhou Tian couldn’t understand the details, he was soon ’sold’ by those three-eyed people.

Zhou Tian didn’t feel it was unacceptable since he had already understood the intentions of those three-eyed people. If Zhou Tian truly couldn’t accept all this, then before falling into the hands of the three-eyed people, Zhou Tian would have escaped with his strength. And since Zhou Tian was still contemplating his plan, even if he ended up in their hands, he was willing to endure it. Therefore, although he didn’t want to see his current predicament, Zhou Tian found it had no choice but to accept.

Of course, although Zhou Tian anticipated his situation from the beginning, it didn’t mean he wasn’t concerned at all with his predicament. After all, his non-resistance was only because he wanted to continue his plan, and before his plan succeeds, Zhou Tian was willing to endure the slight disaster.

No matter what, Zhou Tian’s mood couldn’t possibly be good facing the fate of being sold by his enemies. And while noting the appearance of several three-eyed people, Zhou Tian naturally paid attention to his current position.

Only by understanding the specific situation of his position can Zhou Tian prepare accordingly. Maybe in the future, these efforts might not necessarily have an effect, but at least right now, if Zhou Tian makes more preparations, then if any opportunity arises, whether it’s escaping or learning the power of the three-eyed people, his chance of success will increase.

Thus, in such a situation at the time, after roughly guessing his predicament, Zhou Tian immediately started gathering all useful information.

"There are sounds of fighting; it should be a place like the Beast Fighting Arena, and I have probably been sold as a gladiator."

"The commotion isn’t very big, it seems not many people are involved. Either this society doesn’t allow such activities, or the scale of the arena here is not large."

"There are beast roars; there should be content of human-beast combat."

"..."

With his hearing far surpassing that of ordinary living beings, Zhou Tian soon collected some useful and useless information. However, after Zhou Tian’s short gathering of information, he was soon thrown into a prison cell, still held by those three-eyed people in a bag. (To be continued.
