Under such choices, he was highly likely to step into dangerous territories, but the half-immortal behind him would be in the same predicament after entering the central region.
In front of the dangers in the central area of the Emperor Fallen Sky Pond, both he and the half-immortal chasing him would be treated the same way.
In short, they were gambling with their lives.
This was an approach Han Yi would only choose if there were no other options.
Moreover, the biggest premise of this method was that the half-immortal chasing him would only be slightly faster than him.
Han Yi did not hold out much hope for this.
Hence, most likely, he would not even be able to take this life-threatening gamble.
The second option was to look for islands with half-immortal auras in the outer region, using his Shape-changing Divine Ability to blend in, and hope that two or even several half-immortals come into conflict with each other, which would allow Han Yi to escape amidst the chaos.
