Free Web NovelChapter 1184: Chapter 466 New Opponent
Zhou Tian was able to smoothly expand his territory before mostly because his strength was extremely formidable, so nobody could stop the expansion of his strides at that moment. But now things were different; the emergence of another Human Emperor Monster signified that Zhou Tian had met his match.
Although Zhou Tian was undoubtedly the strongest monster in this world before, the appearance of another Human Emperor Monster meant that even if the opponent couldn’t defeat Zhou Tian, he still possessed the ability to duel with him. Given the ’Immortal Body’ ability of the Human Emperor, once someone claimed that title, it was destined that it would be very difficult to determine a winner among equals.
Therefore, even though Zhou Tian had been psychologically prepared beforehand, when he suddenly found that the excellent situation of unifying the world was threatened by another Human Emperor force, his mood could not possibly have been good.
However, no matter how unhappy he felt inside, Zhou Tian was very clear that it was not the time to dwell on those issues. Whether Zhou Tian liked it or not, the most important thing for him now was still combat. Be it an Emperor-level boss or the Human Emperor, essentially, Zhou Tian was only facing a formidable enemy at the moment. Although Zhou Tian wanted to unify the world, there were still some difficulties he needed to overcome. Defeating another Human Emperor was merely a beginning and even if Zhou Tian eventually won, he couldn’t be sure that other problems wouldn’t emerge. Therefore, given the situation at the time, Zhou Tian, who wanted to become the king of this world, wouldn’t be scared off by the appearance of an opponent.
It was as if he was utterly unaffected by the appearance of another Human Emperor; when that Human Emperor force took shape, Zhou Tian issued related orders without hesitation.
Not giving the opponent any time to develop, Zhou Tian directly challenged that Human Emperor force.
Zhou Tian was not like the opponent, even though all the forces allied with the opponent had severed relations due to their merger. But compared to that monster, Zhou Tian looked more like an enemy to those who had left.
Therefore, although those Deities and NPCs might wish for Zhou Tian and the new Human Emperor to restrain each other and be unable to determine a winner, when the two sides actually clashed, those Deities and NPCs might not refrain from helping the new Human Emperor against Zhou Tian. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
As such, the longer time passed, the more disadvantageous it would be for Zhou Tian. Apart from the new Human Emperor gaining some resources and truly becoming a force capable of opposing him, Zhou Tian also feared that this world would really reach a balanced state in time. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Once a balance is reached in the world, it is not something anyone can easily break.
Right now, although Zhou Tian almost seemed to be at war with the entire world, the forces genuinely battling him were not very numerous. In truth, the forces Zhou Tian directly combated consisted only of a very small part of the world’s members.
Under these circumstances, Zhou Tian could gradually expand his own territory. Because there was no preparation, no one dared to easily interfere, knowing that letting Zhou Tian continue to expand was not a good thing, but the forces that dared to take action against Zhou Tian at that time were still extremely few.
However, if all the forces in this world achieved a balance, then things would be different at that point.
Achieving balance naturally also meant that there would be people able to contend with Zhou Tian’s formidable presence. By then, if Zhou Tian were to provoke a war, almost all the world’s forces would then become involved. Unlike now, those forces, whether joining the fighting passively or actively, except for a very few members, most members would have the power to choose their own alliance.
Undoubtedly, because of his rapid expansion, it was unavoidable for Zhou Tian to have made deadly enemies with many forces. These matters might not seem significant normally, but once Zhou Tian engaged in a struggle with another camp, he would inevitably be at a significant disadvantage in seeking external assistance. And if it really came to that point, Zhou Tian would likely find it very difficult to resist when a large number of forces united against him.
It’s not that Zhou Tian truly feared those forces joining hands. But one would assume that anyone sane would definitely prefer to accomplish tasks using the simplest and most straightforward method!
And compared to waging war against so many forces, Zhou Tian naturally preferred a simpler method to solve the problem.
Rather than let that Human Emperor force and other forces join hands against him later, Zhou Tian would prefer to fight the decisive battle with the opponent right now. Firstly, by beginning the battle at this moment, the forces that might have assisted the Human Emperor, due to his sudden advancement, probably would not take action because of their mindset. Secondly, by fighting now, the only opponent Zhou Tian would face was merely a monster who had just stepped into the Human Emperor rank.
