Only after contemplating a method to avoid the continual suppression of his abilities could Zhou Tian think about leaving the forest. Otherwise, based on the situation in that jungle at the time, Zhou Tian—like the other deities—would remain powerless to escape.
In fact, upon discovering the peculiar phenomenon in the jungle that prevented one from recovering their strength, Zhou Tian immediately decided to retreat from the area. However, when Zhou Tian diligently tried to escape from the jungle, he inevitably encountered numerous difficulties.
Whether retracing his steps or flying skyward, Zhou Tian soon realized in horror that, although he had not originally ventured deep into the jungle, upon turning back to exit, he seemed to have crossed into its center. Moreover, the jungle, which initially appeared small, had now expanded into an endless stretch, and no matter how far Zhou Tian flew, there were no boundaries in sight.
