Free Web NovelChapter 1273: Chapter 495: Escaping the Predicament _3
"Pan Shi, it seems like this guy is comprehending Divine Power with our help!"
"What do we do now? Do we continue to attack?"
"..."
Because of Zhou Tian’s actions at that moment, those ancient beings summoned by Pan Shi couldn’t help but hesitate about their subordinates’ attacks. On one hand, they thought about how to kill Zhou Tian, this invading enemy, but on the other, they worried that if this continued, in the end, they might help Zhou Tian fully comprehend Divine Power Attack. By that time, with sufficient understanding of Divine Power Attack, Zhou Tian, who could be easily obliterated by them at present, may pose a significant threat to them.
In fact, Pan Shi himself started to feel conflicted at that moment. He had come seeking Zhou Tian to avenge the minor losses he had suffered before, and from the beginning, he had never intended to help Zhou Tian comprehend the rules. Under such circumstances, when he saw Zhou Tian’s strength growing stronger and stronger, it was natural for Pan Shi to feel somewhat helpless.
Neither attacking nor ceasing attack seemed right in the face of the current situation. After calming down, Pan Shi naturally began to feel extremely uncomfortable.
If he had known that coming to take revenge on Zhou Tian would lead to such a dilemma, although it’s not to say Pan Shi would definitely have given up on his revenge, he would likely have given it much more thought. Now, as things had developed so unexpectedly, Pan Shi and his followers found themselves in a quandary.
As a result, due to the issue with their mentality, the attack on Zhou Tian was unavoidably affected at that moment. Under those circumstances, Zhou Tian, who was in a state of comprehension, naturally could not miss the change in Pan Shi and his followers.
When Zhou Tian realized their attacks were starting to get chaotic, he also knew that his chance to escape had appeared.
Honestly speaking, if Pan Shi and the others had no other thoughts and were solely focused on attacking Zhou Tian in the same manner as before, although Zhou Tian might eventually fully comprehend Divine Power Attack and indeed have a chance to escape, the process would take an unknown amount of time. In such a situation, if any accident occurred during the process, Zhou Tian still could potentially lose his life.
Now, Zhou Tian had seized the opportunity due to the huge fluctuation in their mental state, so he naturally wouldn’t continue with the original plan.
Whether it was an opportunity or not, Zhou Tian knew that if he continued to comprehend the rules in the same way as now, it would greatly help in his cultivation within the Old Power System. However, the risks were too high, and a single mistake could cost him his life. Therefore, even though the benefits of such an approach were substantial, the various risks were reasons enough for Zhou Tian to abandon the original plan.
Unless absolutely necessary, even if comprehending the rules in that state was incredibly effective, Zhou Tian absolutely wouldn’t choose to cultivate with that method. So, when he saw the opportunity to escape the attack of Pan Shi and the others, he would certainly not miss it.
As a result, when Zhou Tian discovered a great disturbance in Pan Shi and their mental state, realising they could no longer maintain their attack as before, he immediately took advantage of their moment of distraction and mustered his own comprehension to unexpectedly resist against one of their Divine Power Attacks targeting him.
With rules against rules, after dodging most of their rule-based attack, Zhou Tian then used his comprehension of the Time Law to counteract a portion of the remaining attack strength. Consequently, at that moment, the Divine Power Attack hurtling towards Zhou Tian naturally didn’t retain much of its power.
Clearly, Zhou Tian couldn’t resist a Divine Power Attack at full strength even in his prime state of Defense Power. However, under the circumstance of its power being greatly weakened, the Divine Power Attack falling upon him was something Zhou Tian wouldn’t consider a threat by any means.
Therefore, relying on his absolute strength advantage, Zhou Tian directly ignored the threat of that Divine Power Attack. When the opponent’s attack descended, Zhou Tian chose to stand his ground and face it without dodging or evading.
Although Zhou Tian had made the same move before, being prepared this time meant that the Divine Power Attack hitting him didn’t achieve its pre-set effect.
Initially, those Divine Power Attacks striking Zhou Tian would directly obliterate him. But after Zhou Tian started resisting, ordinary Divine Power Attacks would hardly kill him. Thus, to take down a formidable opponent like Zhou Tian, those ancient beings often needed to launch several Divine Power Attacks to achieve the same effect.
In turn, Zhou Tian didn’t exactly die from those attacks but was severely injured. When the attack meant to directly kill Zhou Tian didn’t achieve its intended effect, his injurys naturally recovered very quickly.

Pan Shi and his followers were well aware that if Zhou Tian recovered from his injuries, it would become incredibly difficult for them to suppress him again. So even though they had discovered Zhou Tian was using their attacks to comprehend the rules, they had not stopped their offensive. Now, suddenly realising Zhou Tian was escaping, they were extremely anxious.
Given Pan Shi and their strength, even if Zhou Tian managed to escape, they didn’t need to worry about what he could do to them. However, the sudden knowledge of Zhou Tian possibly escaping and then likely seeking revenge was uncomfortable for Pan Shi and his followers, no matter what. (To be continued.
