Chapter 1582: 573 Chapter 2
Although the idea of destroying the Beastman Territory arose when they saw that Zhou Tian was not there, when it actually came to taking action, those forces began to worry whether the battle would develop according to their plans.
Because in the past, they had suffered too many losses in such matters.
Often in the past, those forces would make very detailed and feasible plans, and initially, they would have miraculous effects. But in the end, just as they were about to win, they would always lose to Zhou Tian due to some inexplicable reasons. Like trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice, those forces had experienced this type of situation numerous times.
As a result of experiencing those situations too frequently, whenever a battle had any connection to Zhou Tian, those forces would worry they might come away empty-handed again, and under those circumstances, it became impossible for their combat desire to intensify.
In such a situation, Zhou Tian was naturally very satisfied with the reaction of those forces.
By then, those forces had already become wary of provoking him. If Zhou Tian continued to exert more effort, and let those forces suffer more losses, perhaps in future encounters related to Zhou Tian, they might indeed become extremely cautious. By then, even if Zhou Tian wasn’t at his Old Home, the stability of the Beastman Territory would likely remain solid as Mount Tai.
Holding such thoughts, Zhou Tian certainly wouldn’t be courteous to those enemies then.
As a result, while those forces were still making probing attacks, unaware that Zhou Tian had already returned, he stealthily ambushed them from behind.
Though alone, in this High Martial World, there were numerous instances of one man forming an army. Zhou Tian’s strength alone had previously constituted about ten to twenty percent of the Beastman Tribe’s combat power, and now his cultivation level had broken through, Zhou Tian, although alone, represented enough combat power worthy of anyone and any force’s attention.
Making oneself feared is not an easy task, at the very least, if you want to make others fear you, you must demonstrate fearsome abilities. Otherwise, if you pose no threat to others, how could they possibly care about you?
Zhou Tian managed to make those forces pay such close attention to him for a reason. His past war achievements were one thing, but his powerful strength was also a crucial factor.
Even in the past, Zhou Tian’s enemies were left disgraced by his own power alone, and now with his advanced strength, when Zhou Tian took action, the threat he posed to those forces was no ordinary matter.
"Freeze!"
Having concealed his trail, Zhou Tian only approached the enemy’s rear army and suddenly emerged from his hiding place, swiftly demonstrating his Time Ability.
The moment Zhou Tian took action, the noisy Battlefield seemed as if the ’pause button’ had been hit; all the living beings performing various actions simultaneously stopped. Then, in the blink of an eye, while most ordinary living beings were immobilized, a part of them forcibly broke free from Zhou Tian’s ability based on their strength.
Despite facing an overwhelming number of opponents this time, Zhou Tian, with his current enhanced strength, still found it somewhat strenuous to apply his Time Ability to several armies at once.
However, regardless, the mere fact that he alone could freeze the time of millions of living beings was a testament to how different his current time cultivation was compared to his previous rule cultivation.
Still, although his performance had greatly improved, Zhou Tian still seemed dissatisfied at that moment. He discovered that although his rule cultivation had greatly increased, the sudden increment and lack of time to adapt meant that he wasn’t capable of properly controlling his Time Ability at that moment.
So, although Zhou Tian appeared very strong, only he knew a critical problem had occurred when he used his ability.
Originally, when using his Time Ability, Zhou Tian intended to immobilize his enemies and not the Beastman, while focusing on the ordinary living beings and dedicating more of his ability to the stronger beings. According to Zhou Tian’s plan, although it might not be possible to freeze the Deity along with others, those at the demigod level were expected to fall under his control as well. freewebnøvel.com
However, in practice, when he utilized his ability, Zhou Tian found the situation to be completely different.
Because he couldn’t control the sudden increase in strength, once Zhou Tian employed his Time Ability, it was like a child wielding a Large Saber—still as deadly as ever, but Zhou Tian inadvertently faced issues with fine control.
