If it weren't for those church masters obstructing him, Zhou Tian could directly rush into the enemy's defended domain and accomplish his goal.
However, at the moment, he was blocked by them on his way. He was promptly surrounded by nearly a hundred church masters. Although Zhou Tian was powerful enough to face them without an immediate kill, it was not an easy task to accomplish his goal under their siege, not to mention how dangerous this situation was.
Even then, Zhou Tian didn't think much about it. If it could be done, it would be done; if not, he had no choice. Instead of thinking about all these messy things, it would be better for him to think about how he could achieve his original goal.
Given Zhou Tian's situation, he had no other options. He was on the enemy's territory. If he hesitated, he would soon be encircled by numerous monsters. In this scenario, Zhou Tian had no choice but to act swiftly.
