Chapter 3089: Chapter 1024: (Part 2)
Based on the situation at the time, Zhou Tian’s safest action would have been, upon realizing just how tough those enemies were, to immediately choose to leave at that moment. In abandoning that world, if Zhou Tian wanted to return to the Abyss, it would not pose any difficulty for him.
Compared to that world at the time, Zhou Tian could exert even greater strength within the Abyss World. Even if Zhou Tian truly returned to the Abyss World, at least at that time, despite the consciousness of the Divine Realm and the group of God Kings joining forces, capturing Zhou Tian would still be an exceedingly difficult matter.
Only...
Although if he returned to the Abyss World at that time, Zhou Tian basically wouldn’t have to consider the threat from the Divine Realm consciousness and that group of God Kings anymore. However, saying such as letting Zhou Tian slink back to the Abyss World in disgrace at that time, given the situation, Zhou Tian wouldn’t make such a move.
It can even be directly said that, as long as there is a choice, Zhou Tian would not retreat no matter what at that time.
Firstly, after finally reaching that step, Zhou Tian believed that it wouldn’t be long before he could annex that world at the time, and he certainly couldn’t accept the outcome where the final battle results were all lost. Under the attack of that group of God Kings, even if his situation was hardly favorable, as long as he wasn’t defeated, Zhou Tian would surely choose to persist.
Secondly, if Zhou Tian retreated at that time, then his plan to annex that world would naturally be equivalent to failure. Although Zhou Tian’s plan failed, his prior diligent achievements wouldn’t disappear with his retreat at that time.
In fact, speaking of Zhou Tian’s invasion, it could be considered successful at that time. Due to a lack of time for assimilation, Zhou Tian hadn’t entirely annexed that world back then. Otherwise, given the situation at the time, despite that world’s consciousness resisting Zhou Tian’s invasion, in reality, Zhou Tian had enough ability to annex that world, and that world itself had already lost its resistance ability.
Thus, according to the situation at that time, if Zhou Tian retreated, although his safety would be guaranteed, he would have to leave a world that he was just a step away from annexing behind at the location.
Moreover, Zhou Tian wasn’t alone in knowing that annexing other worlds could boost the strength of the Abyss World. In reality, the status and strength of the Divine Realm today were almost entirely grown through annexing other worlds. However, because the Divine Realm’s thinking capability wasn’t as strong as Zhou Tian’s and lacked targeted actions, its growth speed at that time was slower than the Abyss World’s.
Regardless of the intelligence gap between the Divine Realm consciousness and Zhou Tian, one undeniable point is that the Divine Realm consciousness also knew how to annex other worlds.
Generally, the Divine Realm consciousness would choose a relatively gentle method to achieve its goals. Without targeted actions, although the Divine Realm would still annex some worlds periodically, it usually wouldn’t touch any world that hadn’t been sufficiently corrupted by its tactics.
Clearly, the world originally targeted by Zhou Tian didn’t have any intention of being annexed by the Divine Realm consciousness. But due to Zhou Tian’s invasion, that world had already been significantly damaged by his previous actions. In the event that the world had nearly lost all resistance ability, if Zhou Tian retreated, facing such a readily annexable world, the Divine Realm consciousness wouldn’t let it go.
If Zhou Tian couldn’t carry out his plan to annex that world in one fell swoop and, upon failing, allowed the Divine Realm consciousness to pick up a free advantage, Zhou Tian would be extremely frustrated.
Firstly, if the Abyss World couldn’t annex that world, its original plan to increase its strength through annexation couldn’t continue. Secondly, if the Divine Realm consciousness managed to annex that world after Zhou Tian’s efforts, while its strength wouldn’t grow much, in a situation where the Abyss World was inherently inferior to the Divine Realm, any increase in the Divine Realm’s strength wasn’t favorable to Zhou Tian.
Lastly, what Zhou Tian couldn’t accept was back when he was about to achieve a highly difficult plan, only to end up not benefiting and instead giving his enemies an advantage. Although Zhou Tian’s safety was guaranteed, he didn’t want to witness that kind of loss of face.
Therefore, given the situation at the time, from all aspects, there was little chance Zhou Tian would retreat, even though it might seem that facing those enemies was very challenging and becoming unable to defeat them would be tough. No matter how difficult the situation was, Zhou Tian would continue. Whatever the case, Zhou Tian would refuse to leave.
Thus, although Zhou Tian was at a disadvantage when he first faced the group of God Kings, although he wasn’t their opponent, Zhou Tian didn’t show signs of defeat. Hence, if Zhou Tian persisted then, that group of God Kings would be unable to really do anything against him.
Given the situation in that world, as long as he persistently held on, sooner or later, the Abyss World would annex it. And undoubtedly, once that world was annexed by Zhou Tian, it would effectively become part of the Abyss World.
With the power of the Abyss World, Zhou Tian had the ability to formerly resist the Divine Realm invasion. Therefore, he could accomplish the same feat at that time. As long as the power of the Abyss World remained intact, Zhou Tian wouldn’t have to fear the consciousness of the Divine Realm and the group of God Kings. At that time, with the power to counter their threat, no matter how strong the Divine Realm consciousness and the God Kings performed, they wouldn’t threaten him again.
Due to Zhou Tian having such a belief at that time, holding onto that determination, Zhou Tian wasn’t intimidated by that group of God Kings. Though constantly passively combating their attacks, even if the God Kings hammered him so severely that he couldn’t lift his head, Zhou Tian never considered retreat.
Sure, though Zhou Tian’s situation was far from good at that time, if those God Kings wanted to defeat him, it was still not an easy task. Based on Zhou Tian’s past performance, since they didn’t manage to defeat him initially, it basically meant their actions would likely fail once again.
Just based on the strength of the God Kings, they hadn’t managed to capture Zhou Tian initially, and afterwards, their chances were dwindling. However, aside from those God Kings, there was the Divine Realm consciousness lurking, hovering ominously, watching Zhou Tian closely. If the God Kings had been able to capture Zhou Tian instantly as they had hoped, the Divine Realm consciousness wouldn’t have taken any further actions. While Zhou Tian was being besieged, it would only watch and wait for Zhou Tian’s death.
But at that time, relying solely on the strength of those God Kings was not enough to deal with Zhou Tian, so to eliminate him as an enemy, the Divine Realm consciousness certainly wouldn’t hesitate to lend a hand at that moment.
Thus, while Zhou Tian was resisting the attacks of those God Kings with full strength, though unable to guarantee the safety of the world at that time, he hadn’t let the God Kings take him down. Since the God Kings didn’t achieve their expected goal, the Divine Realm consciousness decided to take action. (More to come.
