Mighty Lord

Chapter 1526: Chapter 559_2

Whether Zhou Tian could be left behind was not important, given the situation at that time. If they continued their search like this, Zhou Tian’s days would definitely not be easy. Even if they couldn’t take Zhou Tian’s life at that time, their method could still hinder Zhou Tian’s actions. At the very least, under their encirclement, it had become highly unlikely for Zhou Tian to launch an offensive against those weaker gathering places for living beings as he had done before.

In fact, when those living beings were enraged by his actions and completely surrounded him, Zhou Tian’s predicament had indeed become extremely dire.

Zhou Tian’s power was indeed formidable; he wouldn’t consider any of the living beings’ members worth his attention. Even for those existences at the level of kings, although it might not be easy for Zhou Tian to clean them up, if he truly wanted to do so, the possibility of Zhou Tian killing them was indeed very large.

However, no matter how strong Zhou Tian was at that time, there was no problem for him in dealing with a small number of living beings. But when the number of opponents reached thousands or even tens of thousands, Zhou Tian, although not easily killed by them, also didn’t have a strong resistance. Under their encirclement, Zhou Tian could only flee in a sorry state.

And in that situation at that time, although Zhou Tian was temporarily not in life-threatening danger, his originally well-going plan had been forced to a halt.

Clearly, Zhou Tian would not willingly stop his plan. Considering the situation at that time, although Zhou Tian had not yet encountered any danger, those living beings’ current actions left Zhou Tian no chance to defeat them. If he couldn’t defeat those living beings, Zhou Tian would be powerless to stop them from cultivating the Human Emperor, and once that Human Emperor grew up, it was estimated that the enemy would start their counterattack.

So, right now, no matter what, Zhou Tian had to try his best to delay the living beings’ actions. freёwebnovel.com

In this case, not to mention that at this moment he was merely encircled by that group of living beings, even if Zhou Tian was already in a dangerous situation, he would still try to weaken the power of those living beings. Now their power was strong, but once they were scattered, Zhou Tian still felt he was qualified to fight them.

With a sneer, Zhou Tian watched the group of living beings who walked past him without discovering his whereabouts slowly depart. After thinking for a bit, he then led his few Clone Bodies to chase after them.

Given the number of living beings at that time, Zhou Tian knew that, although he did not fear them, it was not possible to eliminate them in a short time. And if the combat couldn’t be ended in a very short period, once Zhou Tian took action, it was estimated that it wouldn’t be long before a large number of living beings would be drawn to the location.

In the current environment, once more living beings surrounded him, the possibility of Zhou Tian being killed was very small, but it was almost certain that his strength would be reduced once again.

Thus, although right now Zhou Tian was constantly thinking about weakening the strength of those living beings, if he was not certain of victory against them, even if a good opportunity presented itself before him, Zhou Tian would not easily take action at that time.

Zhou Tian believed that although the number of living beings was so great that it was difficult for him to make a move against them, this was just the initial situation. As the combat progressed, the living beings would inevitably scatter, and once they did, Zhou Tian would then have a chance to take action against them.

Following behind that group of living beings, what Zhou Tian waited for was an opportunity. He believed that the troop of living beings could not always stay together. Since Zhou Tian’s whereabouts were not discovered by them, they would need to scour the region. The area where Zhou Tian was located was a forest covering nearly ten thousand acres. Although the number of living beings wasn’t small, their manpower was still somewhat stretched to search and block Zhou Tian in such a vast area.

Therefore, usually, this group of living beings surely moved together, but at certain times, they would probably scatter for a while. Zhou Tian only needed to wait for that moment. Once the living beings scattered, then when he wanted to confront them, it was estimated that there would be plenty of opportunities.

As a matter of fact, everything happened just as Zhou Tian had predicted. After several days, the living beings, indeed, showed a weakness.

After searching the area where Zhou Tian was hiding several times and not finding any trace of him, nearly seventy percent of the living beings had left the area to search elsewhere, while nearly thirty percent remained.

"The opportunity has come."

Perhaps in the eyes of those living beings, their actions at that moment had nothing wrong; patrolling that small area for so long without any clues about Zhou Tian’s whereabouts. With a certain amount of confidence in their strength, no matter how cautious they were, it was estimated that those living beings had already believed that Zhou Tian couldn’t possibly be in that area anymore.

Under these circumstances, when a small portion of living beings remained to monitor the area, prepared to prevent Zhou Tian from arriving in the area later, they naturally would go elsewhere to search for Zhou Tian.
