However, if that True God were to retreat back to the Divine City, their current actions would undoubtedly end in failure. After all, the main reason Zhou Tian couldn't handle that Divine Ship was because the True God was on board, guarding its safety.
If protection from the True God was lost, and if the Divine Ship wasn't recalled immediately, Zhou Tian had an eighty percent chance of destroying that Divine Ship at a certain cost.
The only difficulty was that the True God could easily see Zhou Tian's plan, and even if Zhou Tian attacked the Divine City, the True God would not retreat so easily. Therefore, unless Zhou Tian's attack had a significant effect, causing the True God to feel threatened, only then might the True God release Zhou Tian's Heavenly Gods and retreat.
