At that time, the thoughts of those Deities were quite simple. Since Zhou Tian was an invader, then they would capture him. And as long as they could capture Zhou Tian, that group of Deities, who were unaware of what Zhou Tian had already done, naturally thought that their actions could compensate for their own mistakes.

In such a scenario, it was not surprising that when Zhou Tian was still pondering how he could escape, he was directly surrounded by a large group of Deities.

To Zhou Tian at that time, those Deities were not truly a threat. Even without the help of the Abyss World, Zhou Tian’s power was still a cut above the average True God. Thus, the strongest Deities who were only True Gods at the time might still have had a chance to defeat Zhou Tian, but if they wanted to capture or even kill Zhou Tian, it would have been an impossible feat.

However, even though those Deities seemed to pose no threat to Zhou Tian, when truly in that environment, Zhou Tian’s face still changed to look quite grim.

Zhou Tian was well aware that given his situation at the time, if he couldn’t escape promptly, it didn’t matter if those Deities couldn’t kill him. As long as Zhou Tian had no way to leave, it wouldn’t be long before the Space God King, who could kill him, would come rushing in.

Zhou Tian was extremely clear about how much of a threat the Space God King posed to him, so if he had a choice, he certainly would not be willing to stay in the same place at that time. But unfortunately, though Zhou Tian knew well that it was best to find a way to escape at that moment, on one hand, the Deities under the Space God King were not weaklings; while they posed no threat to Zhou Tian’s life, they still had the ability to block him. On the other hand, the Divine Realm’s consciousness kept a close watch on Zhou Tian without relenting. Given the circumstances at that time, as long as the Divine Realm’s consciousness did not intend to let Zhou Tian go, Zhou Tian’s attempt to escape would certainly prove to be very difficult.

Thus, despite Zhou Tian constantly thinking about how he could ensure a safe escape, when truly facing those Deities, he basically had no way to flee. Until the Space God King finally returned to his base, Zhou Tian was still fighting fiercely with those Deities.

"Damn it, what are you thinking!"

Initially, he might not have been very clear about the situation at his base, but upon returning, relying on the abilities of the Space God King, he quickly knew exactly what happened in his base during his absence.

Without a doubt, the escape of Zhou Tian’s true form made the Space God King very angry. Even because of this, while those Deities hadn’t even figured out what was going on, he slaughtered a batch of subordinates to vent his anger. But even so, regardless of how furious the Space God King was, the situation had already developed to such a point that he no longer had the power to change anything.

Therefore, only given the situation at that time, instead of regretting seeing those Divine Kings, it would be better for the Space God King to figure out what he could do at that moment.

The Space God King was very serious about his opponent Zhou Tian. Even if Zhou Tian returned for revenge at that moment, the Space God King was already prepared to flee, and given Zhou Tian’s power, it was understandable if the Space God King chose to flee then.

After all, Zhou Tian’s true form was still a cut above the Space God King. Combined with what happened before, Zhou Tian’s fierce response was entirely possible. Thus, if he were to face Zhou Tian again, the Space God King wasn’t sure if he could survive.

Hence, without the assurance of triumph, when facing Zhou Tian’s threat, choosing to flee seemed a reasonable reaction for the Space God King at that moment.

However, even though regardless of the Space God King’s reaction at the time it wouldn’t be inappropriate, it seemed unlikely he would immediately try to escape before Zhou Tian personally caused him trouble. And given the circumstances at that time, only if the Space God King did not intend to flee would he still handle things according to his own ideas.

And in that case, the top priority for the Space God King was to kill Zhou Tian’s true form, and subsequently, to deal with Zhou Tian’s avatar.

Even though the Space God King might not have known that Zhou Tian’s avatar had released his true form, it didn’t change his intentions. Given the situation at the time, the Space God King had every reason to resent Zhou Tian’s avatar.

After all, relying on the layout of the Space God King at the time, from all aspects, there seemed to be no other outcome for Zhou Tian than being trapped to death. But just when Zhou Tian appeared doomed, because of Zhou Tian’s avatar, who rescued his true form, the Space God King’s plan fell apart.

And given the circumstances at the time, if no accidents occurred, Zhou Tian might strike back in revenge. Without confidence in fending off Zhou Tian’s revenge, possibly dying at Zhou Tian’s hands, the Space God King naturally regarded Zhou Tian’s avatar as a mortal enemy.

Thus, given the situation at that time, after understanding everything that had happened, without any surprise, the Space God King swiftly went for Zhou Tian upon learning what had occurred in his base.

The Space God King had no confidence in dealing with Zhou Tian’s true form, not even sure where it was or if it had truly escaped. But it didn’t matter if he wasn’t clear on these matters; as long as his intention to capture Zhou Tian did not change, he would definitely continue his action.

Consequently, given the circumstances, while Zhou Tian was fighting the Deities, without any surprise, the Space God King suddenly appeared on the Battlefield.

There was no intent to converse with Zhou Tian. As far as the Space God King was concerned, Zhou Tian’s previous series of actions to rescue his true form indicated a connection between them. In dealing with such an opponent, it was impossible to extract any useful information from him. Naturally, the approach should be to dispose of him immediately upon encounter.

Thus, following the Space God King’s intent, when he appeared near Zhou Tian using his abilities, he wasted no time; as soon as he appeared before Zhou Tian, he launched an attack.

And, undoubtedly, given the power of the Space God King, it was fine if he didn’t intend to deal with Zhou Tian. But the moment he truly attacked Zhou Tian, it represented a massive threat to Zhou Tian.

No matter how well Zhou Tian’s avatar developed, at the time, he hadn’t focused on enhancing his true form’s strength. If the Abyss World could still offer help, it would have been fine. However, without the Abyss World’s assistance, based on the power of Zhou Tian’s avatar, trying to confront the Space God King would truly be a challenge for Zhou Tian. (To be continued.
