Mighty Lord

Chapter 1268: Chapter 494 Forced to Fight

Zhou Tian had already attained the cultivation level of a top domain master when he started his cultivation. This was a great advantage for him, and as long as he utilized it well, Zhou Tian believed his achievements would definitely be significant.

While Pan Shi was diligently thinking about how to deal with Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian had already begun his cultivation. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Everything was just as Zhou Tian had thought, the advantages he had were very apparent. When he hadn’t started to use his resources for cultivation, it was okay, but once he began using them, he immediately realized the various conveniences of his cultivation.

For cultivation to reach the demigod realm, Zhou Tian knew that the key was whether he could completely control a particular law. Without relying on the domain form, he could also utilize some power of the law to deal with enemies. If he could reach that standard, then within the old power system, that cultivator could basically be considered a demigod.

As for Zhou Tian realizing the laws by himself, he did not need any help. With his long-standing research into the Time Law, even without the change in his previous notions, if Zhou Tian had enough accumulation in his cultivation level, he would naturally have become a demigod. The sole reason he hadn’t become a demigod at the moment was insufficient accumulation in this area. Even if he controlled a large territory, it wouldn’t bring him any help.

From an external perspective, given the situation at the time, Zhou Tian’s influence didn’t seem to bring him any significant advantage. If Zhou Tian wanted to cultivate, he still had to cultivate bit by bit just like everyone else. If he couldn’t gain new insights, he shouldn’t expect to break through to demigod status.

However, things were not entirely like that.

Externally, it seemed one way, but the reality was another. Indeed, in the matter of laws, Zhou Tian’s influence could not bring him any advantage. But if the only difference between demigods and domain masters was in the laws, obviously, that would be an impossibility.

Both domain masters and demigods used laws in combat; the difference was that domain masters could only use laws within their domains, while demigods usually could utilize them as long as they were in combat.

Moreover, demigods had a stronger comprehension of laws which generally gave them an edge over domain masters in law-based combat.

However, even though the major difference lay in the comprehension of laws, this did not mean that a domain master could become a demigod immediately by deepening their understanding of laws.

The degree of understanding laws could only serve as a reference standard; this does not mean that becoming a demigod only required understanding enough laws.

In fact, even without using laws in combat, demigods were generally much stronger than domain masters. This difference was partly due to physical attributes, but also reflected in combat skills and various equipment and supplies.

While Zhou Tian might not have been able to exploit his influential position for his law cultivation, in other aspects, he couldn’t rely entirely on his influence. However, the resources under his control still provided some help.

Of course, such assistance wouldn’t be substantial because the old power system was notoriously difficult to cultivate. If Zhou Tian thought he could easily cultivate to demigod level with the help of his influence, that would be an overly optimistic view of the difficulty of cultivating the old power system.

Initially, Zhou Tian could easily bypass the early stages with the help of his influence. But now, the problem was that Zhou Tian’s conditions had long destined that he had already passed those stages. Even if the power system being cultivated wasn’t unified, the convergence of myriad paths, under certain circumstances, revealed that different power systems had similar methods and manifestations of power.

Regardless, Zhou Tian might not be able to fully rely on his foundational strength and influence to cultivate the old power system, but given his conditions, if he truly focused on cultivating the old power system, the difficulty would be much less than for the average person.

As a result, given his conditions, Zhou Tian effortlessly attained near-demigod strength. Now, Zhou Tian just needed to make one more effort, and he estimated he could rise to the demigod realm.

Given the circumstances at the time, the upcoming phase of Zhou Tian’s cultivation was naturally not difficult anymore.

After summarizing his situation, Zhou Tian thus began his cultivation at that time.

At his command, the beastmen under his name immediately delivered the massive amount of supplies he needed to his hands. After receiving those supplies, without saying a word, Zhou Tian started his cultivation according to the route he knew. Although the specific methods were unclear, with a clear understanding of his future growth path, even without secret cultivation texts, Zhou Tian’s achievements were still recognizable.

With no accidents, it might take a thousand years at most or a hundred years at least, Zhou Tian expected that he could advance to the demigod realm using the methods he knew.
