Chapter 1187: Chapter 467 Withdrawal
The Human Emperor’s greatest strength is not manifested in his power; although the Human Emperor is indeed stronger than an Emperor-level Boss, the difference in strength between the two is reflected in their tier. As for abilities, the Human Emperor’s special abilities are indeed very effective in combat, but they do not possess much attack power.
Compared to combat, the most powerful aspect of the Human Emperor is his "immortal body."
With the Human Emperor’s immortal function, even the Deity cannot kill them. As long as they do not lose their position as Human Emperor, the death that all Bosses fear will absolutely never befall them.
Although Zhou Tian was reluctant to see his emergence, at this moment, he still had to admit that this newcomer Human Emperor, despite just entering this level as a Monster Boss, was indeed on par with him. Every power Zhou Tian possessed, the newcomer Human Emperor also had.
Thus, considering the Human Emperor’s immortal function, it was unnecessary for Zhou Tian to take action against this newcomer at this time from any perspective.
Therefore, rather than wasting energy on that Human Emperor at the time, Zhou Tian would be better off conserving that little strength to consider how to demote the other’s position. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Just as the Deities had tried to deal with him in the past, Zhou Tian was very clear that given the current situation, if he wanted to kill his current opponent, he would need to defeat him and lower his realm. If this Human Emperor does not fall in realm, then, relying solely on his immortal body, Zhou Tian would find himself completely out of options.
Due to the effect of the Human Emperor’s immortal body, no matter how Zhou Tian attacked, even turning the opponent into dust would not be able to kill them. It was for this reason that when dealing with the Human Emperor at the time, Zhou Tian had not been using his full strength. After all, he himself had preserved his life from those Deities by relying on that same ability, and now that he faced an enemy with the same power, it was needless for Zhou Tian to waste the time.
Both being Human Emperors, Zhou Tian and his enemy were both aware of each other’s status. So, although the two sides had not reached any agreement, their actions were very much in sync.
Neither Zhou Tian nor the Human Emperor intended to defeat the other; what they aimed to do was to stall each other. And the outcome of their battle would be determined by the performance of the forces under their command.
The current struggle was a matter of time, with Zhou Tian’s forces being stronger than those of the other. So, if nothing unexpected happened, with just the forces at his disposal, Zhou Tian would be enough of a threat to the Human Emperor. Generally speaking, even without Zhou Tian taking action, it was estimated that his Beastman Large Army would annex the newly established forces of the Human Emperor.
However, the Human Emperor dared to confront Zhou Tian in combat, obviously having his own considerations. In the view of the Human Emperor, he indeed had no way of outfighting Zhou Tian. Yet his situation was much better than Zhou Tian’s, as even those who opposed the annexation and were originally part of his alliance would not stand by and watch him be defeated by Zhou Tian. Therefore, all he needed to do was buy some time, and then there would be no fear of Zhou Tian having no one to contend with when the time came.
As a result, one sought to annex the other’s forces by the advantage of strength, while the other sought to buy time for other forces to intervene in the battle. Whether Zhou Tian or the Human Emperor, they had already shifted their attention to other battles taking place elsewhere, paying less heed to their own confrontation.
As a result, while Zhou Tian and the Human Emperor restrained each other, making it impossible for either to leave their spot for a while, their respective forces had already begun fierce combat.
Everything proceeded just as Zhou Tian had expected. Although the Human Emperor had become his peer, he had only just entered that realm, and in terms of forces, the Human Emperor was far from matching Zhou Tian. Therefore, when the underlings of the two sides clashed, Zhou Tian’s Beastmen were already overpowering the underlings of the Human Emperor.
It could almost be said that although the Human Emperor did not drop in realm because of the attack of Zhou Tian’s Beastmen, given the situation at the time, if nothing unexpected happened and Zhou Tian’s Beastman Large Army continued the assault, falling in realm would only be a matter of time for them. freёweɓnovel.com
Thus, without any accidents, as Zhou Tian’s Beastmen took action, territory after territory belonging to the Human Emperor swiftly fell into Zhou Tian’s hands. As a result, with the loss of those territories, the gap in strength between Zhou Tian and the Human Emperor was further widened.
If nothing unexpected happened, and things continued to develop in this manner, it was estimated that the Human Emperor might indeed risk being demoted in realm by Zhou Tian. At that time, with Zhou Tian using his full strength, the Human Emperor would likely suffer a fall into his hands.
However, naturally, the Human Emperor would not easily give up resistance. And just as his reason for confronting Zhou Tian suggested, though reluctant to see the emergence of too many Human Emperors, now that this newcomer had successfully upgraded without encountering the hardships Zhou Tian had initially faced, it implied that due to Zhou Tian’s rise, those powers in the shadows had already acknowledged the newcomer’s rise. His emergence was for the purpose of contending with Zhou Tian, so, although he was not Zhou Tian’s match at the moment, if it wasn’t necessary, those hidden powers naturally would not allow Zhou Tian to easily defeat the Human Emperor.
