Mighty Lord

Chapter 3130: Chapter 1045:

It was slightly different from what Zhou Tian had imagined.

At that moment, although it was just a surprise attack, Zhou Tian not only used his full strength but also utilized the ability of the Abyssal Consciousness. Given the situation at that time, in a head-on battle, that attack had a definite opportunity to obliterate a Divine King. Needless to say, that Divine King was completely unprepared for his attack. So in that context, after Zhou Tian launched his attack on that Divine King, he believed, in his heart, that barring any unforeseen accident, that Divine King should have been directly obliterated.

However, the result was that although Zhou Tian indeed successfully ambushed that Divine King, under Zhou Tian’s attack, that Divine King’s situation was indeed far from good. Yet, no matter how miserable that Divine King was under Zhou Tian’s attack, one undeniable fact remained: Zhou Tian’s attack did not manage to kill the opponent.

Ultimately, Zhou Tian somewhat underestimated his opponent.

Under normal circumstances, Zhou Tian’s thoughts at that time were not problematic. The strength he demonstrated was indeed quite strong, and based on the strength he brought out then, it was indeed possible to eliminate the Divine King with one blow.

But, just when Zhou Tian thought his attack would certainly take down that Divine King, he completely ignored the fact that the Divine King’s defensive power had never been put away.

Indeed, because they found themselves unable to leave the Paradise world despite all their efforts, those Divine Kings became mentally unsettled, ultimately revealing a weakness. However, before Zhou Tian disappeared, those Divine Kings had revealed all their hidden trump cards for self-preservation. Additionally, knowing that Zhou Tian was lurking in the dark, even though Zhou Tian had not shown himself, those Divine Kings had been on guard against him.

Thus, although Zhou Tian’s attack was very sudden and the Divine King was unprepared, that Divine King already had some defense set up against Zhou Tian’s assault. It was precisely for this reason that Zhou Tian’s attack, which had a certain chance to kill the Divine King, was ultimately weakened by more than half due to those defenses, resulting in it not being able to finish off that Divine King.

And now, after Zhou Tian’s attack ended, even if he launched a few more attacks, he could deal with that Divine King. But clearly, the Light God King and others would not give Zhou Tian that opportunity.

Moreover, the Divine Kings who came to the Paradise world with the Light God King had some degree of friendship with him. While they were not necessarily sworn allies, they generally did not mind extending a helping hand if one side was in trouble, as long as the situation wasn’t extremely dire.

Furthermore, their current situation was quite perilous, facing a powerful enemy like Zhou Tian. Even if they united their strength, those Divine Kings lacked confidence in claiming they could definitely escape the Paradise world. If at that time any of their members were directly taken down by Zhou Tian, losing any combat power when they themselves were not confident in combating Zhou Tian would result in the Light God King not thinking they could gain any advantage against Zhou Tian.

Thus, for their benefit, those Divine Kings would generally help each other in such situations.

Consequently, taking advantage of them being unprepared and displaying a weakness, Zhou Tian managed to successfully ambush that Divine King. But after his attack ended, Zhou Tian’s actions were discovered by those Divine Kings. After discovering Zhou Tian’s actions, the Light God King and others would naturally not give Zhou Tian another chance to initiate an attack.

So, Zhou Tian’s attack had some effect, and he indeed almost took down a Divine King. But after that attack ended, the Divine King who had been wounded by Zhou Tian was immediately protected by their companions. Undoubtedly, given the situation at that time, with the protection of the Light God King and others, for Zhou Tian to try harming that Divine King again, he naturally had to ask for their permission.

It was clear that under those circumstances, for Zhou Tian to achieve his goal, unless he directly crushed the Light God King and others, it would not be easy to find another opportunity to attack that Divine King leisurely.

But unfortunately, for Zhou Tian to crush those Divine Kings was no easy task.

Initially, Zhou Tian’s strength did allow him to suppress those Divine Kings. Thus, as long as Zhou Tian properly leveraged his strength, he theoretically had the opportunity to take them down. But the problem was, that group of Divine Kings was not without resistance, and while Zhou Tian plotted against them, they were also looking for methods for self-preservation.

Thus, whether Zhou Tian could ultimately achieve his goal or not, at that moment, if he truly decided to confront them, he was acutely aware that if he pressed the Light God King and others too hard, those Divine Kings indeed had the ability to bite back at him.
