Chapter 3050: 1005:

All the top forces in the worlds are more or less the same. At the beginning, everything is fine, but once they truly reach the pinnacle, what greets them is often the corruption of power. When they have lived as the world’s protectors for a long time and have instilled fear in nearly all the forces of that world, those forces often lose their sense of awe. Even in such a situation, even if Zhou Tian’s actions had significant weaknesses, it would be useless if those forces seriously tried to deduce the problem. Based on the nature of those forces, they wouldn’t bother to think if things were truly as their intelligence suggested or if the targets they had co-opted really did those things. As long as those forces received the related information, even if the probability of the information being correct was less than ten percent, they would often choose to eliminate the opponent.

Whether for reputation or out of a laziness to argue, once Zhou Tian killed the envoys of those forces, the original interactions would immediately turn hostile. Confronted with such a misunderstanding, Zhou Tian’s cultivated strong figures might try to explain once or twice, but those forces wouldn’t have any intention of further contact.

In fact, even if the other side attempted contact again, it wouldn’t be meaningful.

As long as Zhou Tian had made up his mind to undermine their alliance, then no matter how many times the two sides interacted, the interactions, which should have been smooth, would often stir up more misunderstandings. As long as Zhou Tian kept eliminating the envoys sent by those forces, reconciliation would be impossible.

Misunderstandings time after time naturally became the reason for mutual hostility. And when such a situation finally occurred, the objectives Zhou Tian had in making those small actions behind the scenes were also achieved.

Based on the strength of the strong figures Zhou Tian cultivated, after Zhou Tian formed an opinion of them and stopped supporting them, even if they didn’t face the Gods of that world, with the foundation of the top forces in that world, using the Human Sea Tactic would be more than enough to eliminate those strong figures.

It could be said that when Zhou Tian forced those strong figures to such a point, their fate was destined then and there. With their strength, there was no way they could protect themselves at that time. Thus, in facing the encirclement of those top forces, there would be no other outcome than death.

However, despite the disparity in strength, the strong figures Zhou Tian cultivated couldn’t possibly match those top forces. But regardless, their strength was there; even if they weren’t the opponents of those top forces, the opponents couldn’t eliminate them without paying a cost.

Clearly, from every aspect, if the two did really face off, naturally Zhou Tian’s cultivated strong figures would finally be taken down by the rival side. But at the time those top forces eliminated Zhou Tian’s cultivated strong figures, they would also pay a heavy price then, possibly so great that it could seriously damage their power structure, potentially shaking their foundation.

Of course, the likelihood of such a scenario is small, given that those top forces have a backing in the Divine Realm. And Zhou Tian is thoroughly aware of the abilities of the strong figures he cultivated; none of those living beings even reached True God level, much less challenging the Deity of the Divine Realm. Just facing the Divine Race of that world would definitely be a crushing defeat for them.

So, the outcome of the battle was destined from the start; the group of strong figures nurtured by Zhou Tian could not possibly defeat those top forces.

However, when those strong figures inevitably faced annihilation and made acts of desperate resistance, given their strength, they could still severely damage those forces. And due to such a fierce battle at that time, with a large number of living beings falling, the intertwining rules studied by the deceased would naturally accelerate the Abyss World’s corruptive invasion of that world.

And when the influence of the Abyss World in that world grew stronger, the limitations on Zhou Tian would inevitably diminish. Thus, when Zhou Tian became completely unrestricted, it was estimated that it would be the day he directly confronted the Divine King ruling that world.

Should the Divine King learn about the situation of this world, Zhou Tian would surely face certain interception. Nevertheless, given the situation, even if Zhou Tian’s actions drew his enemies to intercept him, with Zhou Tian’s strength, as long as he made no mistakes, his enemies could do nothing to him.

And judging by the situation, as long as Zhou Tian’s plan progressed smoothly, ultimately annexing that world would likely proceed without a hitch.

Thus, when everything in his plan was going smoothly, and barring any unexpected incidents, annexing that world was merely a matter of time, Zhou Tian couldn’t help but relax then.
