Therefore, since the Lightning Law posed only so much threat to Zhou Tian, he naturally didn’t need to rush to confront that rabbit.
On the contrary, for Zhou Tian at that time, the Dark Law was what he truly dreaded.
In itself, Darkness was a rule not weaker than that of Time, and at present, the fox appeared to have cultivated an ability similar to a Black Hole. Although when compared to a true Black Hole, the fox’s ability was still not much to look at, for Zhou Tian, this ability also presented a certain threat.
Moreover, how was Zhou Tian brought to this world?
It wasn’t the same ability, nor were the rules used the same. But the ability the fox wielded was exceedingly similar to the one that brought Zhou Tian to this world. And just for that reason alone, it was enough for Zhou Tian to set his sights on it. freēwēbnovel.com
If it were up to him, Zhou Tian would have preferred not to come to this world at all. Thus, after being brought here by Pan Shi, not only did Zhou Tian feel extremely uneasy about the situation of this world, but he also came to utterly detest Pan Shi, the instigator.
Due to the condition of this world, Zhou Tian knew he currently lacked the ability to take revenge on Pan Shi. It wasn’t just that he was clueless about Pan Shi’s whereabouts; even if he knew where Pan Shi was, Zhou Tian at this moment would only think of ways to avoid him. Without making progress in strength, he simply wouldn’t dare to trouble Pan Shi.
However, while Zhou Tian didn’t have the means to seek out Pan Shi’s trouble at the moment, this did not mean he couldn’t vent his frustration in other ways.
After all, Zhou Tian’s fury was no small matter; if there were a way to let out some steam, he certainly wouldn’t pass up the opportunity. Thus, in light of the situation, although the ability displayed by the fox was not weak, it had ironically become the target for Zhou Tian’s venting. Whenever there was a chance, Zhou Tian wouldn’t mind directing his anger at Pan Shi towards it.
Without getting close, it would not be easy for Zhou Tian to deal with the fox given its strength. However, now that Zhou Tian had successfully approached it, tackling the fox no longer seemed like a difficult task.
"Boom!"
The outcome could be described as a disaster through no fault of its own. Simply because its ability’s form resembled that of Zhou Tian’s adversary’s, the fox became his primary target despite having an advantageous position. Furthermore, because Zhou Tian chose it as the target of his attack, the fox met with a terrible fate when faced with Zhou Tian’s threat.
Zhou Tian’s close combat ability was there for all to see. He certainly couldn’t match the fox in Rules, given that the opponent had lived in this environment for countless years. Without even needing to apply itself to cultivation, it naturally gained a profound understanding of the Rules. And how long had Zhou Tian been cultivating the Time Rule? Compared to the opponent, it was most normal that he wasn’t a match at the time.
Although Zhou Tian was not the fox’s match when it came to grasping the Rules, in terms of close combat ability, the fox fell far behind Zhou Tian.
It wasn’t that Zhou Tian particularly excelled in close combat, but throughout his growth, he had encountered numerous situations that called for it. And from those past battles, Zhou Tian honed his close combat skills to a certain standard. With his current abilities, as long as Zhou Tian was willing, even average beings of the same level couldn’t beat him in close combat, let alone the fox that wasn’t adept at it. Once Zhou Tian closed in on it, it was, by nature, destined that the fox, no matter how it resisted, would struggle to fend off Zhou Tian’s assault in the end.
A series of strikes kept landing on the fox, and unaccustomed to facing such an offensive, the fox was left baffled as Zhou Tian drew near and unleashed his attacks.
When compared to Rule-based attacks, the lethality of hand-to-hand combat indeed seemed severely lacking, but if truth be told, it held a considerable advantage—its attack speed was incredibly fast.
Was the fox’s strength much inferior to Zhou Tian’s?
That was impossible. Though the fox admittedly fell slightly short in strength compared to Zhou Tian, to say it was much weaker would be an exaggeration.
Despite being slightly behind in strength, in reality, the fox wasn’t much weaker than Zhou Tian. After all, at this time, Zhou Tian’s Human Emperor strength had been greatly reduced, and the Time Rule he wielded was far from as powerful as the opponent’s. Even if the fox was only slightly weaker than Zhou Tian, it wasn’t by much.
However, a being not much weaker than Zhou Tian became nothing more than a punching bag during combat.
Did the fox’s strength diminish?
No, the reason the fox was powerless against Zhou Tian’s attacks was simply that it wasn’t adept at hand-to-hand combat. Consequently, when facing Zhou Tian’s onslaught due to its own feeble close combat skills, the fox utterly lacked the capability to resist once Zhou Tian closed in.
No matter how formidable the fox’s Dark Law ability was, what difference did it make? freewēbnoveℓ.com
When the fox initiated its attacks towards Zhou Tian, it needed at least a second to prepare. Although a second was brief, in Zhou Tian’s hands it was already enough time to accomplish many things.
