Chapter 1765: Chapter 618

“Fight to the death.”

Given the circumstances at the ti, Zhou Tian was fully aware that, with his current strength, it was utterly impossible for him to defeat that ferocious beast in a short period of ti. Thus, in a situation where the odds were stacked against him, unless he employed so effective tactics, Zhou Tian knew he wouldn’t stand a chance.

Faced with this dire situation, Zhou Tian hesitated briefly, but ultimately made an incredibly dangerous decision.

Enduring the killing intent that perated the air to defeat the ferocious beast was beyond Zhou Tian’s ability. Understanding this, given the circumstances, if he couldn’t triumph while bearing the killing intent, then to win, he had no choice but to make a change in strategy.

Though the killing intent seed to continuously restrict Zhou Tian at every mont, it was not necessarily an entirely bad thing. On the contrary, if considered carefully, killing intent was not rely an obstacle for cultivators but could also be described as a formidable source of strength.

It might not be a formal strength, but if harnessed skillfully, this energy-less force—killing intent—could still prove imnsely helpful to a cultivator.

Take the ferocious beast as an example. By transferring its killing intent into an enemy’s body, the beast’s killing intent could disrupt the opponent in myriad ways. Furthermore, while uncontrolled killing intent could harm even its owner, if maintained under control, it undoubtedly beca a ntal state capable of substantially boosting the combat power of a cultivator.

In this mont, realizing he had no chance of defeating the ferocious beast through conventional thods, Zhou Tian resolved to direct his attention to the killing intent flowing within his own body.

Although it seed perilous, as long as Zhou Tian’s actions didn’t encounter an accident, utilizing that particular thod to elevate his combat power was likely feasible. The only concern would be the severe aftereffects the thod might generate once employed.

Yet, given Zhou Tian’s predicant, he could not afford such concerns anymore.

After all, if he ended up dead at the claws of that ferocious beast, what difference would it make if he were in perfect condition beforehand? On the contrary, even if he had to pay a certain cost, as long as he survived this combat, he would consider it a victory.

Zhou Tian’s thod was remarkably simple: since killing intent not only weakened the enemy but could enhance one’s own combat power, rather than seeking other ways to improve his strength when he had no confidence in defeating the beast, why not directly utilize the killing intent embedded in his body to increase his combat power?

Though the idea seed unbelievable, if Zhou Tian relaxed his resistance against the killing intent, and even integrated it into his consciousness, he might risk succumbing to madness under its influence, but at least for a brief period, Zhou Tian would undoubtedly explode with imnse strength.

Considering the situation, in his normal state Zhou Tian had no chance of defeating the ferocious beast. However, if he truly leveraged that killing intent to increase his strength, then not only would he avoid succumbing to its influence, but he would also gain a slight boost in combat power. With his strength now comparable to the beast’s, taking it down would no longer be an issue.

The only thing Zhou Tian had to be mindful of was this: the killing intent wasn’t self-generated. So, while it could temporarily increase his strength, Zhou Tian would inevitably face the ntal strain and influence of this foreign killing intent. Under such a state, Zhou Tian couldn’t predict how long he’d be able to endure.

If, before defeating the beast, Zhou Tian’s will was compromised by the killing intent, it was likely he would beco yet another “ferocious beast.”

Such an outco was not impossible, but Zhou Tian had no other choices at the mont.

Even if he ultimately failed to last, it would be entirely on him for not being outwitted. And so, with his mind set firmly on this decision, Zhou Tian ceased his attempts to resist the killing intent’s influence.

The very instant Zhou Tian relinquished his resistance, the killing intent transferred into his body began to drown his consciousness. In that fleeting mont, Zhou Tian felt as though his entire world had turned blood-red.

“Kill!”

As Zhou Tian battled the intense effects of the killing intent suffusing him, his actions inevitably beca influenced to so degree. At that mont, Zhou Tian deliberately chose to endure the effects head-on, and under these circumstances, the killing intent’s impact on him naturally beca overwhelmingly pronounced.

Feeling the uncontrollable urge within his heart to rush forward and engage the ferocious beast in battle, Zhou Tian no longer resisted. Instead, without the slightest hesitation, as soon as the impulse arose, he charged directly at the ferocious beast.
