Mighty Lord

Chapter 2968 - 964: (Part 2)

Everything is determined by the development route of the Divine Realm’s consciousness.The Divine Realm’s present position is not achieved through methods like the Abyss World’s continual annexation of other worlds. Its current position is mainly due to its capacity to accommodate nearly all forms of strength. Whether it is the indigenous creatures and abilities or the living beings and abilities from the outside world, once they enter the Divine Realm, the Divine Realm’s consciousness treats them almost equally. Therefore, many living beings inevitably chose to operate within the Divine Realm under such an environment.

And now, just like the expansion actions of the Abyss World, even though the Divine Realm’s consciousness is not targeting those living beings operating within it, as long as they continue to operate inside, the Divine Realm’s consciousness inevitably learns about the world rules of those living beings’ worlds. Once sufficient understanding is achieved, it can then proceed to annex those worlds.

Moreover, even if the Divine Realm ultimately does not annex those worlds, once those living beings become accustomed to living there and voluntarily join the Divine Realm, it is considered as a gain for the Divine Realm.

Thus, based on the Divine Realm’s past development route, Zhou Tian is 80% certain that if he sends his troops into the Divine Realm, even if the Divine Realm’s consciousness discovers Zhou Tian’s action, to understand the precise information about the Abyss World and to annex Zhou Tian’s troops, the Divine Realm’s consciousness would likely not act despite knowing Zhou Tian’s true purpose.

In this way, as long as the anticipated response from the Divine Realm’s consciousness is known, Zhou Tian’s subsequent actions become very simple.

When the Divine Realm’s consciousness thinks of using such a method against Zhou Tian, how could Zhou Tian not utilize this notion to achieve his goals? As long as no accidents occur, if Zhou Tian issues related orders, his troops will target the deities under the Light God King after entering the Divine Realm. Given the circumstances of a calculated move against an unprepared opponent, Zhou Tian’s troops, as long as not vastly outpowered, will find it highly feasible to eliminate the opponent.

However, if the Divine Realm’s consciousness successfully annexes all the Abyssal creatures Zhou Tian sent, it would indeed be a severe loss for Zhou Tian. After all, the Abyss World, in comparison to the Divine Realm at present, is still much weaker. So, even when dealing solely against the Light God King’s foundation in the Divine Realm, Zhou Tian would obligate to dispatch more than half of his strength.

Under such circumstances, if Zhou Tian’s dispatched troops are annexed, it means that Zhou Tian would have instantly lost over half of his forces. Facing such a massive loss, it would be impossible for Zhou Tian not to feel the impact.

Nonetheless, if the Divine Realm truly manages to annex such a large contingent from Zhou Tian, it indeed would be a substantial blow. Yet the problem is that, based on the situation, Zhou Tian does not think that the Divine Realm’s consciousness has the means to annex his troops.

Zhou Tian holds such confidence in his judgment.

Firstly, despite not all Abyssal creatures dispatched by Zhou Tian being born or raised within the Abyss World, by the time Zhou Tian sends them out, these Abyssal creatures have already established binds or even families within the Abyss World. It would be impossible to say that none would betray Zhou Tian. But without the Divine Realm’s consciousness investing substantial resources into them, Zhou Tian is confident that the majority will return unless they die in battle.

Secondly, prior to this, the Abyss World was the adversary of the Divine Realm, and during those years of conflict, many of Zhou Tian’s Abyssal creatures established deadly enemies with the Divine Realm gods. Although there may be considerable benefits in staying in the Divine Realm, considering this factor, not many would dare to remain.

As for the Divine Realm using these Abyssal creatures to acquire intelligence about the Abyss World, Zhou Tian has already made preparations. Unless an accident occurs, though the Divine Realm might understand some of the Abyss World’s rules, merely relying on information obtained from this single action by Zhou Tian to seize the Abyss World is impossible.

At least, at that time, Zhou Tian did not consider the impact of that information leak significant.

Zhou Tian is well aware that many things cannot be prevented just because he wishes to. If the Divine Realm indeed targets the Abyss World, regardless of Zhou Tian’s precautions, it would likely find an invasion opportunity. Given the Divine Realm’s strength, once it finds such a chance, although not guaranteed to seize the Abyss World, its ability to pose a corresponding threat is unquestionable.

Even though Zhou Tian has repelled a Divine Realm invasion once, he never naively believed that he could always keep the Divine Realm from invading. If the opponent finds an opportune moment, theoretically, it would indeed be possible to annex the Abyss World.

Instead of relying on strict defensive measures, Zhou Tian prefers to bolster his strength to safeguard against a Divine Realm invasion.

No matter the defenses, Zhou Tian cannot ensure the Divine Realm will not eye the Abyss World. Given the situation, as the Divine Realm’s invasion is eventually inevitable, rather than dwelling on preventing such an event, it’s better to focus on enhancing his strength. After all, formidable strength is the best self-preservation method. If the Divine Realm lacks the assurance of defeating the Abyss World, even without Zhou Tian’s precautions, the thought of the Divine Realm annexing the Abyss World would be unwarranted.

Therefore, Zhou Tian does not concern himself with minor information losses. What matters is whether his plan can be truly implemented. Based on the situation, if Zhou Tian’s plan is successful, it would mean that he could annex the Paradise World.

And according to the situation, if Zhou Tian annexes Paradise World, the Abyss World’s strength would increase substantially. This would significantly enhance the Abyss World’s resistance ability in future encounters with the Divine Realm invasion.

Gains from one or two actions may not sufficiently equip Zhou Tian with the ability to resist the Divine Realm invasion, but as such gains accumulate, given the Abyss World’s foundation, growing into a force capable of countering the Divine Realm is not impossible. Undoubtedly, should the Abyss World grow one day, it may immediately become a world capable of threatening the Divine Realm.

Thus, if the Abyss World indeed gains such power, no matter how hostile the Divine Realm is, threatening its safety would become exceedingly difficult.

Just with a contemplated potential gain from this battle, any hesitation Zhou Tian had concerning his plan was dispelled.

Consequently, considering the prevailing situation, once Zhou Tian conceived such thoughts, he decisively commenced action at that moment. (To be continued.
