Chapter 3029: 995:

In any case, to summarize in a single sentence, the reason Zhou Tian currently has so many things he cannot do is because his strength is insufficient. Due to this lack of strength, when faced with things he wants to accomplish, but without confidence, he dares not attempt them lightly. If at that time Zhou Tian truly had enough strength, then when those thoughts formed in his mind, he would have long ago taken action. Thus, for Zhou Tian, at this moment, annexing those advanced worlds might not be an unwise choice. After all, his situation back then was as it was, and from all perspectives, Zhou Tian would have no problem protecting himself in the short term, but dealing with his enemies, whether it was the Divine Realm or Paradise, was a bit challenging for Zhou Tian at that time.

Considering that those Divine Kings might take action in future combats, with their abilities, if Zhou Tian acted rashly, he could lose his life at any moment. Thus, without corresponding confidence, Zhou Tian couldn’t possibly act rashly at that time.

Given the circumstances at that time, since Zhou Tian had already made his decision, when he took action, there would be no hesitation. Once he decided to take action, Zhou Tian stealthily approached an ordinary-looking advanced world.

Although with his strength, Zhou Tian is confident he could take down any ordinary advanced world, he also knows that while capturing an ordinary advanced world is not difficult with his current strength, he must be cautious. If he decides to start a war, then it may not just be an isolated advanced world he’s facing in the future.

The Divine Realm is secretly preparing for war, and although it’s unlikely to act easily, if Zhou Tian reveals a weakness, the Divine Realm might not hold back against him. Though Zhou Tian has thwarted the Divine Realm’s invasion several times, claiming he felt no pressure at all when facing the invasion is absolutely impossible.

At the same time, Zhou Tian, to eliminate those Divine Kings who oppose him, severely provoked them before ceasing the war. With the circumstances at the time, without an opportunity, those Divine Kings, wary of Zhou Tian’s strength, wouldn’t dare to act. But if Zhou Tian displayed a weakness while invading other worlds, given their relationships, who can predict what might happen.

Facing an advanced world, with help from the Abyss World, it’s not impossible for Zhou Tian to take it down. But if trouble arises on his home front or the enemies receive support during his invasion, then his invasion might fail at best. Under such circumstances, if Zhou Tian doesn’t manage well, he might even lose his life.

Therefore, Zhou Tian either avoids acting lightly, or if he truly takes action, he needs to proceed cautiously. If there is a way not to let any information leak out, then he shouldn’t let his enemies know his whereabouts. Otherwise, given his enemies’ abilities, killing Zhou Tian might be difficult, but disrupting his actions would be no problem.

For Zhou Tian, encountering resistance during his actions is inevitable, but encountering it just as he begins would be the last thing he’d want to see.

Even before taking action, Zhou Tian considered his enemies. Even if his initial actions were unbeknownst to them, after he truly began some actions, it’s no doubt that those Divine Kings would certainly get the news. And since the Divine Realm had its eyes on the Abyss World, if Zhou Tian doesn’t mobilize too much Abyssal Energy, the Divine Realm’s consciousness couldn’t act. But those Divine Kings were watching Zhou Tian, so as long as he acted, it seemed they would react somehow.

Since Zhou Tian dared to react that way at the time, it meant he did not regard those Divine Kings’ threats as significant. At least when he started acting against those advanced worlds, Zhou Tian no longer considered the Divine Kings’ response significant.

Zhou Tian was confident, as he began invading those advanced worlds and infiltrating them to a point they could no longer suppress his strength, even if some Divine Kings tried to confront him, he need not worry about their threats.

Compared to ordinary Divine Kings, Zhou Tian’s strength was much greater. In fact, if it weren’t for the number of Divine Kings sometimes being too high during combat, without the help of World Consciousness, they couldn’t possibly be Zhou Tian’s opponents.
