Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!
Rumble!
As level 300 Emperor-class bosses, the eight ferocious beasts surrounding Zhang Yue all burst forth with their strongest fighting spirit at once.
In an instant, an unimaginably powerful aura spread out, swallowing the heavens and devouring the earth, almost as if it would consume the entire World 57.
At that moment, even the professionals inside the World 57 felt an intense pressure shaking their hearts.
Yet Zhang Yue himself, the center of it all, remained calm and unhurried.
He quietly watched the eight beasts perform, as if, in his eyes, they were nothing more than a circus act.
Only when the eight ferocious beasts unleashed their full power, their world-shattering might closing in tightly around him, did Zhang Yue slowly extend his right hand and stir his divine soul.
"I admit, you're strong."
"But if I call in someone else, how will you handle that?"
The moment his words fell—
WHOOSH!
Golden flames flared up in Zhang Yue's palm.
The God of Malevolence Motan answered his summons, breaking out from deep beneath the earth.
ROAR!
Accompanied by a thunderous bellow that shook the heavens and split the land, the eight ferocious beasts looked down, and saw a colossal nine-headed serpent emerge from the ground, its gaping bloody maws lunging straight at them.
Before they could react, the Toad and the Gluttony were bitten by two of the massive jaws.
The other six beasts managed to react in time, leaping back out of the serpent's attack range, barely escaping disaster.
When they looked closely, they froze, the creature attacking them was none other than the God of Malevolence Motan.
Clearly, their first reaction hadn't caught up with reality: they still hadn't realized that the God of Malevolence had already been slain by Zhang Yue and turned into his Supreme Death Servant.
They still believed the God of Malevolence Motan was serving the Demon Emperor just like they were.
Furious, they shouted at him, "Are you insane? What are you doing? You're helping the necromancer?"
"Are you not afraid your master will kill you? How dare you betray us?"
"Open your damn eyes and see clearly, who the real enemy is!"
At that moment, Zhang Yue reached out and lightly patted one of the God of Malevolence's nine heads that had stretched close to him. With a calm smile, he said, "Sorry, but now, I'm its master."
Then, through sheer will, Zhang Yue issued his command.
The God of Malevolence tightened its mighty jaws and tore both the Toad and the Gluttony to shreds.
Even a level 300 Emperor-class boss could not withstand the onslaught of a level 450 King-class boss.
In front of the God of Malevolence, the eight beasts were nothing but underlings.
Though they weren't instantly killed, the God of Malevolence's vicious mauling drained nearly one-third of the Toad and Gluttony's health in a flash!
Emperor-class bosses, indeed, they had some substance.
Even with a 150-level difference, they couldn't be wiped out instantly by the God of Malevolence.
At that moment, the Emperor, the Shadow, and the Dark Angel all launched a fierce concentrated assault, striking the God of Malevolence hard enough to make it loosen its grip.
Taking that chance, the Gluttony and Toad hastily escaped from its jaws.
But under Zhang Yue's command, the God of Malevolence unleashed a storm-like barrage on the eight beasts.
ROAR! ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Its gaping maws opened wide, spewing out beams of deathly light so powerful they could destroy heaven and earth, sweeping straight toward the beasts.
The eight ferocious beasts dodged frantically, for with their current strength, it was impossible to resist the God of Malevolence head-on.
All they could do was evade; they didn't even dare attempt a direct clash.
After a prolonged back-and-forth, the God of Malevolence, massive and heavy, couldn't quite land precise hits despite its overwhelming power. Even so, its relentless attacks completely prevented the eight beasts from getting anywhere near Zhang Yue.
Using the God of Malevolence to suppress them was no problem.
But killing them required a bit more.
So Zhang Yue coordinated with the God of Malevolence and activated his third Soul of Fate—
Hands of Hell!
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Dozens of black tendrils burst up from underground, stretching endlessly, chasing the eight beasts relentlessly.
"Damn it!"
The Emperor slashed hard, cutting through one of the tendrils, and shouted angrily, "The God of Malevolence's power is too strong! At this rate, we'll never get close to the necromancer!."
"This is his Death Servant!", the Shadow realized belatedly, "The God of Malevolence must've been killed by him and turned into one! Death Servants summoned by a necromancer can only exist for ten minutes! If we just hold out until it disappears, then come back, we'll be fine!"
Helpless, the eight ferocious beasts had no choice but to retreat for now.
Zhang Yue naturally couldn't just let them go.
But he also couldn't stop them.
After all, as Emperor-class bosses, their stats, including speed, were all far too high.
Skills like Fatal Lock and Hands of Hell were linked to Zhang Yue's own speed.
The faster he was, the faster their attacks.
Right now, his attack speed was too slow, making it impossible for Hands of Hell to accurately catch up to the eight beasts moving at high speed.
So in the end, Zhang Yue could only watch as the eight ferocious beasts escaped, disappearing beyond his sight.
"What a pity."
When silence finally returned, Zhang Yue sighed softly.
In truth, he had never planned to kill them here anyway.
He knew full well, his current power wasn't yet enough to slay an Emperor-class boss.
As long as he could intimidate them, make them too afraid to approach him recklessly, his goal was achieved.
After all, his real mission right now was to enter the Divine Tomb and conquer that hidden realm.
Glancing at the God of Malevolence beside him, Zhang Yue realized that dealing with the eight beasts didn't require any elaborate tactics.
As long as he didn't aim to hunt them, any one of the three Main Gods could replace Wolong and the others in guarding him within the Realm of Death.
That was why Zhang Yue dared to enter the Death Territory alone in the first place, it was his safeguard.
He had already planned: the moment the eight beasts attacked, he would summon the Supreme Death Servant to confront them.
Though the servant's duration was limited, it wasn't short either.
Ten minutes, plenty of time to protect Zhang Yue and escort him safely into the Divine Tomb.
Thus, without lingering, Zhang Yue spread his Angel Wings and, under the God of Malevolence Motan's protection, sped toward the Divine Tomb at full flight.
Though the eight ferocious beasts continued to follow from the shadows, with the level 450 God of Malevolence Motan present, none of them dared to act rashly.
