But in reality, at that time, the high levels of those powers believed they would definitely win this fight. However, in fact, if both sides truly engaged in combat relying on the abilities of those forces, the notion of defeating Zhou Tian in one fell swoop was simply a joke. It was likely that the World Consciousness of that world just wanted those powers to cause a bit of trouble during Zhou Tian’s action, being quite aware in its heart that, based on Zhou Tian’s strength, he was simply not someone those forces could handle at that moment. And according to the situation at that time, those forces believed their action could undoubtedly capture Zhou Tian, but in reality, how things would turn out was beyond their decision.
Result...
"Boom boom boom!"
Just when those forces issued their orders, fully confident that with their power, they could capture Zhou Tian, they heard explosive sounds from afar. And before their faces could retract their schadenfreude expressions, the high levels of those forces received a piece of news they absolutely could not accept.
Total annihilation!
The strengths of both sides were indeed not proportionate, and the battle concluded in such a short time. But unlike what the leaders of those forces thought, they believed Zhou Tian’s strength was not comparable to theirs, and upon dispatching their large army, they could capture the opponent in minutes. However, while the battle did end quickly, the final result was that the victorious side was not their army, but rather Zhou Tian, who they believed had no chance against them.
According to the situation at that time, when receiving such a battle report they never expected, those living beings surely found it hard to accept.
Yet after repeatedly confirming the accuracy of the message, those forces had no choice but to admit that Zhou Tian had indeed easily won, and the army they sent to deal with Zhou Tian had been completely defeated by Zhou Tian using his strength.
Undoubtedly, after confirming the news, those living beings felt extremely uneasy. After all, they came to deal with Zhou Tian, and despite already taking action against Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian not only wasn’t defeated by them but easily wiped out their dispatched troops. Facing that situation, even though those living beings were unwilling to believe it, they knew their current situation was dire.
After Zhou Tian successfully defeated their army, it was naturally impossible for him to stop there. If they were in Zhou Tian’s position, those living beings also believed they would definitely pursue the victory. And based on Zhou Tian’s strength, if he wanted, he could certainly achieve some battle results, making those living beings acquainted with Zhou Tian’s strength extremely uneasy.
The higher the position, the more afraid of death those living beings were at that time. Although speaking of strength, those living beings were much stronger than the subordinates they dispatched. Yet currently, regardless of strength, those living beings lacked the courage to fight Zhou Tian due to their fear of death.
Additionally, based on the strength Zhou Tian showcased at that time, even if the high levels of various forces gathered their courage, they might not be able to fight him. Given the situation, it was no surprise those living beings felt fear and retreated.
"Flee!"
Almost simultaneously, the leaders of those forces who were preparing to celebrate their victory, upon receiving the frontline report, without saying a word, reacted uniformly. After all, for those living beings at that time, their personal safety was the most important thing. Compared to their safety, eliminating Zhou Tian as an opponent wasn’t as crucial.
If Zhou Tian were truly easy to deal with, those living beings wouldn’t hesitate, directly ordering the frontline army to eliminate Zhou Tian. Yet knowing Zhou Tian was far more challenging than they imagined, and their dispatched army was already annihilated, those living beings would surely prioritize their safety first, then devise a method to deal with Zhou Tian.
However, after realizing Zhou Tian’s threat, those leaders made the decision to ensure their safety first. Still, the problem was, although those living beings valued their safety greatly, even contemplating giving up the idea of dealing with Zhou Tian just for their safety, it depended on whether Zhou Tian was willing to let them go.
In the end, even at that point, those living beings still underestimated Zhou Tian as an opponent.
If those forces hadn’t entirely disregarded Zhou Tian initially, they wouldn’t have thought they could oppose Zhou Tian with such little power. Yet now, also due to underestimating Zhou Tian, those leaders naively believed they might save their life from Zhou Tian with their strength when situations turned dire.
How powerful is Zhou Tian?
If Zhou Tian hadn’t initially been cautious and dared not take full action, and hadn’t truly considered those living beings, capturing them could have been done swiftly.
Even though Zhou Tian initially didn’t pay much attention to those forces when they attacked him, he couldn’t act as if nothing happened. After all, those forces launched an offensive against him, and in such circumstances, Zhou Tian had to react.
Take action personally?
Zhou Tian certainly wouldn’t contemplate such actions, given his current identity and strength, not all opponents required him to personally take action. Still, although Zhou Tian didn’t intend to handle everything personally, he still made some arrangements for those forces’ leaders.
If he didn’t act himself, Zhou Tian would dispatch his subordinates, those living beings; though they were weak compared to Zhou Tian, for the living beings of that world, Zhou Tian’s casually enhanced living beings were considered strong.
Considering the scenario, once Zhou Tian dispatched his troops, dealing with those major forces’ leaders, although victory couldn’t be guaranteed, they could definitely cause trouble.
According to the situation, Zhou Tian undoubtedly dispatched his troops. Despite not issuing death orders, he indeed directed those living beings to strike against those forces’ leaders.
Although Zhou Tian didn’t intend to personally deal with those enemies, through his ability, identifying those living beings’ position was easy for Zhou Tian. Therefore, even though he didn’t act personally, by continually informing his subordinates of those living beings’ escape routes, the subsequent combat could proceed smoothly. Zhou Tian’s subordinates only needed to chase in the instructed direction to find the opponents without worry. (To be continued.
