Chapter 1432: Chapter 535: Change in Situation_3
The being capable of such an attack was undeniably powerful, and when a living being with that kind of power joined the fight, if Zhou Tian couldn’t handle it, then it didn’t matter whether it was Zhou Tian or Pan Shi, they were both likely to be torn apart by those beings.
In fact, there was no need to wait until Zhou Tian’s defenses were completely breached. The moment Zhou Tian was blown away, Pan Shi—a temporary ally that Zhou Tian had been protecting—had already been exposed to the other living beings’ line of sight.
And once the situation evolved to that point, the group of living beings that witnessed the change naturally wouldn’t pass up such an opportunity.
These beings had always wanted to kill Pan Shi, after all, he was not only their main target for this operation but also the one responsible for most of their members’ casualties in previous battles.
However, because Zhou Tian had been helping Pan Shi resist attacks, although Pan Shi faced many attacks, Zhou Tian managed to block the majority of them. With Pan Shi’s powerful strength, the few scattered attacks that remained posed no real threat.
As a result of Zhou Tian’s protection, even though Pan Shi was the primary target of many beings, he had not faced any real lethal threats until now.
But now, everything was different.
Although Pan Shi remained as powerful as ever and Zhou Tian still wanted to protect him, once Zhou Tian was blown away, it became much harder for him to guarantee Pan Shi’s safety in such an environment.
Thus, when Zhou Tian was blown away, it essentially meant that Pan Shi had lost Zhou Tian’s shelter. Even if Pan Shi’s power remained unchanged, without Zhou Tian’s protection, it became very difficult for him to withstand the attack from those living beings.
"It’s over."
Under normal circumstances, given Pan Shi’s strength, even when facing such a group of opponents, he would have been confident in ensuring his own safety, not to mention his slightly superior strength compared with those living beings, making it no easy task for them to take him down. Not to mention that, with Pan Shi’s endless tactics, it wouldn’t have been easy for those beings to suppress him.
But obviously, at this moment, Pan Shi no longer had the capacity to fend off attacks from those beings, and even he thought he was doomed.
After all, following a series of battles, Pan Shi’s strength had reduced to less than one-tenth of his full capacity, not to say performing at his peak, even survival measures were beyond his ability. Aside from launching desperate attacks, Pan Shi had long lost the capability to resist.
It was not that he couldn’t counterattack or defend, but given the situation at the time, the possibility of Pan Shi being killed by the attacks of those living beings far exceeded his chances of survival. frёeωebɳovel.com
However, Zhou Tian’s ability was much stronger than those beings had imagined. When they launched their attacks, thinking they could easily take down Pan Shi, Zhou Tian suddenly employed his tactics once again.
Shadow Flash!
Just as the beings’ attacks were about to simultaneously land on Pan Shi, a series of shadows suddenly surrounded him. Although these shadows did not launch any significant counterattack, and were even wiped out under their attack, their intervention rendered the living beings’ offensive efforts futile.
Failing to kill Pan Shi could be regarded as a failure, so those beings were genuinely infuriated by how events had unfolded.
Opportunities like this one were not easy to come by—if it wasn’t for the accident that blew Zhou Tian away, with the complementary abilities of Zhou Tian and Pan Shi, those beings wouldn’t have been able to harm them. Such an opportunity was not common. If they missed this chance now, there was no guarantee they would have a second chance to kill Zhou Tian in the future.
Knowing how precious the opportunity was, those beings were especially furious. But no matter how angry they were, what had happened couldn’t be changed by their feelings.
Of course, although they had missed a great opportunity, Zhou Tian and Pan Shi’s situation was still not good.
Given the current situation, it was clear that a being capable of breaking through Zhou Tian’s defenses had joined the battle. While those living beings who had crossed paths with Zhou Tian before had no means against them, the newly joined being could potentially break through Zhou Tian’s defense if they wished.
Since they managed to blow Zhou Tian away once, naturally, they could use the same attack to blow him away a second and third time. This time Zhou Tian saved Pan Shi using his ability, but in the upcoming battles, he might not have the capacity to keep Pan Shi safe.
Regardless of the future, at least for now, Zhou Tian had no way out. So no matter whether he could keep Pan Shi safe in the coming battle, Zhou Tian had no other choice but to continue helping him fend off those living beings. (To be continued.
