While they were powerless against Zhou Tian, judging from the situation at that moment, Zhou Tian seemed to have the ability to assassinate any of their members within their own base camp. For those demigods, that situation had become as bad as it could get. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Even if those demigods realized from the start that Zhou Tian, their enemy, was very strong, they had at least thought themselves safe within their base camp when they first went to war with Zhou Tian. But now, Zhou Tian had slapped them hard with reality.

Zhou Tian was far stronger than they had imagined, and it was clear from the current situation that no matter where they hid in the rear, any one of them could not escape death if Zhou Tian wanted them gone.

And since what they called their base camp was no longer able to guarantee their safety, under the threat of Zhou Tian, it naturally meant that there was no place left where those demigods could be considered safe.

Undoubtedly, that situation was not only something they didn’t want to see, but also something that those demigods absolutely did not want to witness.

It could be said that there was no personal grudge between those demigods and Zhou Tian initially; they united only to preserve themselves. If it had not been for knowing that Zhou Tian’s strength was formidable and his intent to annex their Ancient Ruins Space, then, upon realizing Zhou Tian was stronger, the demigods might not have opposed him if he did something within their Ancient Ruins Space.

Thus, considering the situation at that time, it was clear that Zhou Tian’s previous actions had achieved his intended purpose.

In a situation where they had taken a stand against Zhou Tian only for self-preservation, when those demigods discovered they could not escape death wherever they hid, their first thought naturally turned to their own safety. And under the threat of Zhou Tian, one could imagine that they must have felt extremely anxious at that time.

If Zhou Tian eliminated their peers this time, what if he decided to target them next?

After such a thought arose, many within the Alliance began to feel uneasy. They did not want to die, and that’s why they had chosen to confront such a powerful existence as Zhou Tian. Similarly, upon discovering Zhou Tian’s strength was much greater than anticipated, they immediately felt anxious again.

Afterward, everything unfolded just as Zhou Tian had feared; when their hearts grew anxious, their actions inevitably began to betray their emotions.

As their anxiety intensified, those demigods began to act without their usual caution, unconsciously losing it. Although Zhou Tian’s plan had not yet achieved the best effect, its impact had already begun to cause some of the demigods to escalate their conflicts with each other due to inner anxiety. If this situation were not improved, they might truly erupt in a massive conflict, just like Zhou Tian, because of their anxiety, ultimately allowing Zhou Tian to achieve his goal without fighting.

Even if these demigods did not know the details of Zhou Tian’s plan, they could guess the gist, whether they were calm by nature or already affected by his plan. But what did it matter if they knew Zhou Tian’s intentions?

These demigods did not just realize that with the existence of a strong enemy like Zhou Tian, they had to make concessions and unite; otherwise, they would sooner or later die at Zhou Tian’s hands.

However, even knowing that, it didn’t make any difference. Now Zhou Tian was exploiting a human weakness, which wasn’t something you could simply ignore and remain unaffected. Even if some demigods could restrain themselves, others might not, and when repeatedly provoked, it was impossible to keep enduring. And if one couldn’t hold back just once, Zhou Tian’s goal might be considered achieved.

As a result, after Zhou Tian displayed his strength, making the demigods feel threatened, whether or not they knew his plans, the effect of Zhou Tian’s plan inevitably began to make their actions anxious. And Zhou Tian, upon noticing the change in those demigods, felt excited and couldn’t help but consider continuing with his original plan.

One action had already thrown those demigods into disarray, and Zhou Tian had no doubt that if he carried out a few more such plans, those demigods would be driven to turn on each other by his manipulation. And once those demigods began to fight amongst themselves, if Zhou Tian then took action against them, he might not encounter any serious resistance at all.
