Chapter 2984: Chapter 972-2
Thus, even if Zhou Tian’s strength was indeed more powerful than theirs, at that time, those God Kings believed that in the face of Zhou Tian’s attack, even if their strength was truly inferior to Zhou Tian, theoretically speaking, there should be no problem in blocking that attack.
Yet in reality, at that time, those God Kings did not take Zhou Tian’s attack seriously at all, always thinking that with their strength, they could absolutely block Zhou Tian’s attack. But when Zhou Tian’s attack truly landed, those God Kings quickly found themselves unable to laugh anymore.
"Boom!"
With just one attack, what seemed to be the most ordinary rule attack to those God Kings at the time unfolded, even before they could make sense of what happened, the God King targeted by Zhou Tian was directly blown away by Zhou Tian. In that situation, although that God King was not directly killed by Zhou Tian in a single strike, the truth is, after that attack landed, not only did the God King appear severely beaten, but he was also heavily injured by Zhou Tian’s attack at that time.
Though not dead, it can be believed that for a considerable period, that God King estimated he wouldn’t even have the ability to participate in battle.
With the recovery ability of a God King, it’s estimated that it just takes some time, and with his self-healing ability, he could recover quickly. But as things unfolded to that state, the result of that God King confronting Zhou Tian came out, yet it immediately severely struck the morale of those God Kings at that time. Due to Zhou Tian’s robust performance, directly scaring some God Kings with weaker determination into retreat is not impossible.
"It’s the support of the world, fighting him in this world is essentially defying the world!"
Though no one expected Zhou Tian to have such formidable performance at that time, the God King who was dealt a heavy blow by Zhou Tian couldn’t accept the result even till the end. Nevertheless, no matter what, the strength and knowledge of those God Kings were placed there, although they were gravely injured by Zhou Tian due to a moment’s carelessness, at the same time Zhou Tian injured him heavily, those God Kings quickly discerned the fundamental reason for their misfortune.
Upon voicing what they speculated about the situation, the faces of the God Kings present at that time couldn’t help but change.
Although prior to this, those God Kings hadn’t considered that battling Zhou Tian would involve facing the suppression of the Abyssal Consciousness, this doesn’t mean they were unaware of what the current situation represented. With the support of a world, especially a world of not low level like the Abyss World, even the strength of a God King could get exponentially amplified. Thus, combined with the suppression of the World Consciousness weakening their strength significantly, fighting Zhou Tian in such circumstances, even with many God Kings gathered at that time, they were still likely to suffer defeat.
Unquestionably, that situation was something those God Kings absolutely did not wish to envision. To be honest, the reason they gathered this time was not solely to deal with Zhou Tian, more God Kings only came for potential benefits, that’s why they came to gain some advantage. Fundamentally, if not for witnessing the powerful strength of the alliance between the Light God King and Space God King, how could they willingly offend such a formidable enemy without any past resentment with Zhou Tian?
Therefore, when that God King voiced the reason for being heavily injured, it not only didn’t play much of a role, but on the contrary, knowing the predicament they were in made a large number of God Kings, who didn’t want to face danger, consider retreating.
No surprises there, given that most of those God Kings united by the Light God King were merely seeking some benefits at that moment, under the circumstances of evident high risks in confronting Zhou Tian, believing they might likely be no match for Zhou Tian, it’s not surprising that they chose to retreat at that time.
Undoubtedly, Zhou Tian’s tactics had already scared quite a few God Kings; considering the situation at that time, if nothing unexpected happened, once given the opportunity for retreat, the number of God Kings frightened into retreat by Zhou Tian’s performance might indeed be substantial.
Furthermore, Zhou Tian certainly didn’t desire to face so many God Kings at once. Consequently, if those God Kings were truly willing to retreat at that time, perhaps Zhou Tian might indeed let them go. After all, even with the support of the Abyssal Consciousness, it’s indeed somewhat challenging for Zhou Tian to defeat that many God Kings in one fell swoop. Reducing pressure a bit, Zhou Tian naturally had no necessity to provoke that group of God Kings.
It’s just that, in the situation back then, although Zhou Tian intended to let those God Kings leave, those God Kings were already considering leaving. But when they were actually about to retreat, they never expected that what seemed to be a simple retreat maneuver became extremely difficult at that time.
"How is it possible, the Spatial Passage can’t be opened!"
Within a short span, God Kings who seriously contemplated retreat quickly noticed something was amiss. When they truthfully prepared to withdraw to the Divine Realm, those God Kings realized that their assumptions were naive; it seemed Zhou Tian was not prepared to let them go. Regardless of how hard they tried at that time, there was no way to contact the Divine Realm, based on the situation back then, it was indeed very difficult for those God Kings to leave if they wanted to.
"Damn it, do you really think you can definitely defeat us? If it’s a battle you want, then let’s see who’s truly stronger!"
Without much hesitation, although most God Kings with no grudges against Zhou Tian considered retreating after witnessing Zhou Tian’s performance, when they discovered at that moment that they couldn’t retreat, out of their pride as God Kings, they absolutely wouldn’t beg for mercy from Zhou Tian.
Thus, since there was no way to retreat at that time, then they might as well directly take on Zhou Tian. For those God Kings at that moment, the choices they faced weren’t too difficult. Based on their strength, honestly, if those God Kings were truly determined to deal with Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian was indeed threatened by them.
Only, at this time, even though Zhou Tian genuinely didn’t want to battle those God Kings, there was no alternative. After all, as things progressed to this point, Zhou Tian knew there was no way to explain everything clearly. With the belief firmly set in their hearts that he intended to initiate conflict, no matter what Zhou Tian said at that time, those God Kings probably wouldn’t believe it.
Inform those God Kings that at this moment, he intended to let them go and that the reason why they couldn’t leave the Abyss World isn’t that he manipulated the situation but because the Divine Realm’s consciousness interfered with their abilities?
Evidently, even without trying, Zhou Tian knew that at that moment, even if he provided an explanation, the attitude of those God Kings toward him wouldn’t change. From various perspectives, the battle between Zhou Tian and them was utterly unavoidable.
No one would believe Zhou Tian’s words, or it could be said that the Divine Realm consciousness’ influence on those God Kings had reached a level Zhou Tian couldn’t shake. Given the situation at that time, even if Zhou Tian explained anything, the God Kings present wouldn’t believe that the Divine Realm consciousness would do such a thing.
Nonetheless, although at that time Zhou Tian was forced to the opposite side of those God Kings, after the situation unfolded, denying Zhou Tian had gained anything would also be incorrect. At least, through the reactions of those God Kings, Zhou Tian could easily see that in this current war, the consciousness from the Divine Realm had also participated. (To be continued.
