Mighty Lord

Chapter 1166: Chapter 460 The Goddess Retreats

"I’ll give you a chance, as long as you’re willing to stop this expansion, we can cease our current actions. Moreover, if you do not continue expanding your territory, we can allow you to become the king of this world!"

"That does sound tempting, but I don’t fancy my life being in someone else’s hands."

"Your existence has already accelerated the world’s progression, and if the World Consciousness decides that your civilization has reached its limit, then Doomsday will come. At that time, even we might face a certain risk of falling, while you, undoubtedly, will be definitely dead. After all, your Immortal Body is based on the presumption that the Beastman Tribe will not be annihilated."

Upon hearing the words of that goddess, Zhou Tian indeed felt some shock at that moment.

Zhou Tian had to admit that what the goddess said at that time made a lot of sense. However, even if what the goddess said was reasonable, it did not sway Zhou Tian’s resolve in the slightest. Since he had made the decision to keep striving with Diligence, Zhou Tian had prepared himself mentally to face any danger. Now, although what the goddess said was true, should that situation arise, perhaps even with his strength, he might fall, but Zhou Tian still decided to fight on.

"You’re right, if everything is as you describe, it’s very likely that I might fall. But who can predict the outcome without trying? If I become the king of this world as you say, then that would be the peak of my achievements; and when the world develops to a certain standard, even if I am not killed by those who come after me, I believe eventually the world would face destruction anyway. So, rather than waiting for that day to come, I should seize this time to accelerate my growth. Indeed, there is no chance for me to survive if the world is destroyed, but if I can advance my strength before that happens, then I may no longer fear such Heavenly Disasters."

"Your thoughts are too dangerous; it seems we truly cannot leave you be!"

"You’re welcome to try!"

"Divine Power..."

While Zhou Tian clashed with the goddess, the two continued their battle and their conversation, through which Zhou Tian learned some previously unknown information from her. However, given Zhou Tian’s determination at the time, although the goddess’s words did leave an impact, it was unlikely that such verbal influence would deter his aspirations of expansion.

Based on the circumstances at that time, after talking for a while, the two inevitably parted ways on bad terms, due to their differing viewpoints. Knowing Zhou Tian’s thoughts and harboring rejection towards them internally, the goddess increased the intensity of her attacks shortly afterward.

Once the goddess intensified her attacks on Zhou Tian, his days started to become difficult. After all, the goddess was much stronger than Zhou Tian, and if she held back, he still might exchange a few blows with her. But once she brought her Divine Power into play, no matter how much stronger Zhou Tian had become since their last encounter, he would still be easily killed by her.

Consequently, with no changes in the situation, as the goddess unleashed a series of Divine Power Attacks in her rage, Zhou Tian had no ability to resist. He would be instantly killed the moment he encountered her attack, leaving him with no opportunity to counterattack, and he was killed by the goddess more than a dozen times.

Of course, with Zhou Tian’s abilities, despite being constantly killed by the goddess, he would always resurrect. It was believed that unless there was an accident, it would be very difficult for the goddess to kill him off, no matter how fiercely she attacked.

However, it was evident from the start that the goddess never expected to kill Zhou Tian with her own power. Thus, being unable to kill Zhou Tian didn’t affect her at all. As if completely indifferent to whether Zhou Tian lived or died, the goddess simply followed her previous plan, continually wounding or killing Zhou Tian, hoping to keep him rooted in place by doing so. Then, when the Deity accompanying her utterly destroyed Zhou Tian’s territory, she would be able to kill him easily once he lost the support of his land.

Zhou Tian was well aware of the goddess’s plans. But even as he faced her attacks, Zhou Tian remained remarkably composed. As if totally oblivious to the fact that he would be immediately killed by the goddess if he lost his territory, Zhou Tian kept fighting continuously, resurrecting time and again without showing any intention of going to assist his territory.

At first, the goddess didn’t pay much attention to Zhou Tian’s performance, only focusing on killing him repeatedly, disinterested in any other matters.
