Mighty Lord

Chapter 2901 - 931

After all, the disparity in strength between the two sides was evident, and considering the circumstances, the Divine Realm being able to conquer the Abyss World at that time was the most expected outcome. On the contrary, if the Abyss World could withstand the opponent’s invasion under those circumstances, it would be the most unexpected event.Under those circumstances, theoretically speaking, facing the Abyss World head-on would definitely have no winning odds. If the two sides really went to war like that, then it could be estimated that ultimately the Abyss World would surely be annexed by the Divine Realm.

However...

It was clear that Zhou Tian was well aware of the gap between the Abyss World and the Divine Realm. And knowing that the Abyss World was far inferior to the Divine Realm in strength, Zhou Tian certainly considered in such possible circumstances that he would not allow the Divine Realm to forcibly occupy the Abyss World he held.

Since a hard fight wouldn’t work, Zhou Tian immediately began considering the possibility of achieving his goals through indirect means at that time.

Honestly, at least not for a billion years could Zhou Tian hope to elevate the Abyss World to the level of the Divine Realm. Thus, in the following time, Zhou Tian would let the Abyss World silently develop. Directly leading the Abyssal Creatures to war against the Divine Realm was something Zhou Tian would never do under any circumstances at that time.

Based on the situation in the Abyss World at the time, although from the surface, if Zhou Tian turned a blind eye, it was only a matter of time. It could be estimated that soon the Abyss World would be annexed by the Divine Realm. But what if Zhou Tian intervened at that time and directly severed the spatial passage between the Abyss World and the Divine Realm?

In fact, although the Divine Realm was immensely powerful, it couldn’t attack the Abyss World directly without a cause. After all, the distances between worlds aren’t something they can ignore at will. In most cases, no matter how strong a world is, if it has no contact with another weaker world, annexing the other is an impossible task.

Just like the Abyss World annexing other worlds, generally even if the Abyss World had the ability to annex the other, it wouldn’t do so right away. Instead, Zhou Tian needed to first descend into that world, then expand the influence of the Abyssal Consciousness in that world, and only after both sides established contact could the Abyss World annex that world.

By the same reasoning, if the Divine Realm wanted to annex the Abyss World, simply having some advantage in strength wouldn’t have any effect. Without contact with the Abyss World, even no matter how powerful the Divine Realm is, annexing the Abyss World would be utterly impossible.

Even when the Abyss World initially attacked the Divine Realm, it was through using Zhou Tian as a medium to commence the action. Without a corresponding contact point, even if the Divine Realm’s strength were hundreds of times more powerful than now, annexing the Abyss World in one fell swoop would be impossible.

Regarding other guarantees, at least in preventing the Abyss World from being annexed by the Divine Realm, Zhou Tian was certainly confident. Based on the circumstances at that time, Zhou Tian always believed that if he didn’t want it, then the Divine Realm absolutely couldn’t annex the Abyss World.

At the very least, if Zhou Tian wanted, he could immediately destroy any potential medium that could allow the Divine Realm to annex the Abyss World.

It could be said, given the advantages Zhou Tian originally had at that time, as long as he was cautious, even if the Abyss World’s strength was weaker, he would be the only one attacking the Divine Realm without the possibility of the Divine Realm attacking the Abyss World.

Unfortunately, due to the reason for saving his own body earlier, Zhou Tian had to forcibly launch a surprise attack on the Divine Realm. Although he ultimately achieved his goals, the Divine Realm similarly took advantage of the brief contact between the Abyss World and itself to successfully open several spatial passages.

Thus, precisely because of the existence of spatial passages between the two worlds, the deities of the Divine Realm gained the ability to continuously invade the Abyss World. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, no matter how powerful the Divine Realm was, attempting to invade the Abyss World wouldn’t be feasible.

According to the circumstances back then, what Zhou Tian needed to do at this moment was very simple. Close the spatial passages, and then sever all entities in contact with the Divine Realm, in this way, even if the Divine Realm intended to invade the Abyss World again, it would be absolutely impossible.

However, although Zhou Tian understood the situation at that time, when he truly attempted to take action, Zhou Tian had to admit that expelling the Divine Realm’s forces wasn’t easy.

If the Divine Realm had originally not invaded the Abyss World, then just guarding against their forces, Zhou Tian could cautiously ensure the Divine Realm had no opportunity to invade the Abyss World. But now, with the Divine Realm already having invaded the Abyss World, wanting to expel them without sufficient strength was implausible.

At least based on the circumstances from all perspectives, Zhou Tian’s avatar lacked the ability to accomplish that task. Otherwise the invasion of the Abyss World by the Divine Realm wouldn’t have just begun. Zhou Tian was keenly aware of the weaknesses in the opponent’s actions, so if the ability to close those spatial passages existed, Zhou Tian wouldn’t have waited until now; he would surely have already acted eight hundred years ago.
