Chapter 1392: Chapter 522 The Effort Falls Short by One Final Step_2
Of course, although Zhou Tian’s strength was not the strongest party at the moment, due to the reason he had offended the other two living beings previously, those two living beings viewed him more as an enemy. At present, because they were mutually wary, the Tyrannosaurus and Pan Shi did not join forces, but if the conditions permitted, it was estimated that the Tyrannosaurus and Pan Shi would first join hands to eliminate Zhou Tian before anything else.
Therefore, even though the three parties were in a standoff for the short term, Zhou Tian’s situation was not actually very good. It was estimated that as soon as the other parties found an opportunity, their handling of Zhou Tian would likely be merciless. And judging by the strength of Pan Shi and the Tyrannosaurus, everything was fine as long as they did not join forces, but if the two sides did come together against Zhou Tian, then it was feared that with his ability, he absolutely stood no chance of victory.
As such, given the situation of the three parties at the time, although Zhou Tian’s self-preservation ability might have been the strongest, due to his special circumstances, it was estimated that he was the only one who hoped to retreat then.
Regrettably, during the three-way standoff, if any party dared to act rashly at that moment, it was feared that they would immediately be attacked by the other two parties. And based on Zhou Tian’s strength, if he were to be attacked by the other two parties, even if he did not die, he would undoubtedly suffer immensely.
Of course, if he could escape, even if injured, it was not something Zhou Tian couldn’t accept. However, the current problem was that given Pan Shi’s ability, Zhou Tian found it somewhat difficult even to flee. It was believed that if Pan Shi was unwilling to let him go, then no matter how diligently Zhou Tian tried, it was improbable that he could escape from Pan Shi’s grasp!
The hope of escape was not great, but given Zhou Tian’s circumstances at the time, if it was possible, Zhou Tian would by no means abandon the idea of fleeing, because for him at that moment, if he did not figure out a way to escape, then without a doubt, the one to end up in trouble would surely be him alone. And if the balance of the three-party standoff was broken before Zhou Tian found a way to escape, once he fell into the hands of the other two parties, given their relationship, even if Zhou Tian did not die, he would definitely be sealed.
Just the thought of being sealed in a place for thousands of years, spending every day in darkness, made Zhou Tian feel a surge of anxiety. He absolutely did not want to live such days, so he could only try to escape by himself then.
Let’s give it a try!
Although his opponents’ strength at that moment meant that Zhou Tian knew his likelihood of overcoming his two adversaries was almost nonexistent, since those two adversaries had the power to keep him there, Zhou Tian would have to try to break the current balance. For if the three-way equilibrium continued as such, when the situation eventually evolved into the most unfavorable scenario for Zhou Tian, his position was feared to become rather grim.
So, the worst outcome from breaking this stalemate right now was to lose his life, but if he did nothing, he was destined not to have a chance of survival. So, he might as well take action from the brink of death, now when the situation had not yet reached a point of no return, Zhou Tian had to give it his all. freёweɓnovel.com
After forming that thought, Zhou Tian quickly took corresponding action then.
Heedless of keeping secrets at this juncture of life and death, abilities that could otherwise have been advantageous were now revealed in exchange for vitality.
As a result, knowing that he stood no chance against the combined forces of the other two living beings, Zhou Tian suddenly made his move, deploying his Emperor-level ability and, in an instant’s efforts, created hundreds of thousands of his own clone bodies. freёwebnoѵel.com
The sight of hundreds of thousands of ’Zhou Tian’ clones suddenly appearing was startling, not just to the Tyrannosaurus but also to Pan Shi at that moment. Although taken aback, the Tyrannosaurus was scared due to its experience, while Pan Shi, though surprised, did not hesitate in his actions.
"Don’t even think of escaping!"
Having some insight, Pan Shi naturally did not mistake Zhou Tian’s clone bodies for real beings, as the living beings of this world might. Furthermore, with knowledge of Zhou Tian’s origins, Pan Shi was not intimidated by the quantity of clone bodies. Upon seeing Zhou Tian’s move, Pan Shi immediately guessed why Zhou Tian had used this ability, and under these circumstances, Pan Shi had no intention of letting Zhou Tian escape.
If Pan Shi did nothing at that moment, he knew that with Zhou Tian’s strength, the chances of successful escape were quite high.
Therefore, although uncertain of Zhou Tian’s exact plans, since he knew those clone bodies were Zhou Tian’s means of escape, once Pan Shi saw Zhou Tian’s action, he reacted instantly, naturally thinking to eliminate Zhou Tian’s clone bodies right then.
