Chapter 289: Killing the Divine Official! Infiltrating the Divine Realm!
But clearly, the Forbidden Land of the Gods where the Golden Dragon King was imprisoned would be much harder to approach than the Divine Realm Forest where the beast gods were kept, heavily guarded.
After all, one place housed beasts under god-level power, while the other held the Golden Dragon King, a dragon beast with power comparable to a God King.
The two were obviously not on the same level. If the Golden Dragon King escaped, it could cause endless trouble and even possibly lead to the revival of the Dragon God.
Thus, this location would definitely have a significant number of human gods guarding it, and rescuing the Golden Dragon King would be several times more difficult.
Once the human gods realized that the beast gods were attacking the Divine Realm, they would surely prioritize supporting the Forbidden Land of the Gods.
Therefore, the enemy forces attacking the Forbidden Land would be stronger, but the Divine Realm Forest would be much weaker, allowing Gu Yue to rescue the beasts above a hundred thousand years of cultivation with ease, accompanied by one God King (Emperor Tian) and several Level 1 gods.
As for Ye Wen, Bat King, Snow Emperor, and Evil Tiger, the battlefield led by the four God Kings would be the main one.
Ye Wen only intended to have Gu Yue rescue beasts with a cultivation of over one hundred thousand years, as those below that level were too weak, slow to escape, and would easily be killed along the way, hindering the progress.
Moreover, their bodies couldn't endure the journey through the star domain, so they would need god-level protection, which was troublesome and couldn't guarantee their survival.
So, he wouldn't actively rescue the beasts under one hundred thousand years, but if they chose to follow, their fate would be their own responsibility.
"Boss! We're getting closer to the Divine Realm!!"
"The Divine Realm's edge is patrolled by divine officials. We should quietly eliminate the patrol gods guarding the perimeter first. Otherwise, if they signal, the entire Divine Realm will soon know about our invasion," Gu Yue suggested.
Bat King immediately volunteered, "Master, leave it to me. I'm confident I can kill those patrolling divine officials silently."
Killing one or a few patrolling gods wasn't hard; the challenge was making sure they didn't send out any signals before they were killed.
They were entering the Divine Realm from the star domain, with no cover, meaning that as soon as they rushed over, the divine officials would see them from afar.
"Bat King, do you have confidence?" Ye Wen asked.
"Master, I'm 100% confident," Bat King replied, filled with self-assurance.
"Good, then this task is yours," Ye Wen nodded.
"Rest assured, Master. I will complete the task," Bat King replied respectfully, nodding before quickly increasing speed, charging toward the edge of the Divine Realm.
Ye Wen and the others also got closer and, once they reached a certain distance, chose to hide behind a meteor from outer space.
Meteorites were scattered all over the place, but once they got closer to the edge of the Divine Realm, they disappeared.
So, at that distance, there would be no more cover. However, in that very moment, Bat King's body turned into a streak of blood.
The blood streak rushed toward the edge of the Divine Realm at an incredibly fast speed, almost impossible to detect if one wasn't paying close attention.
At the edge of the Divine Realm, four divine officials were patrolling.
The Divine Realm hadn't been attacked in a long time. Since the human gods took control of the Divine Realm, there hadn't been any outside attacks.
Even though a group of beast gods appeared in the Douluo Mortal Realm and killed many gods from the Divine Realm, no one had ever thought that the beast gods would actually charge into the Divine Realm.
Thus, while the patrol gods were doing their rounds, their attitude was very laid back, and they were even chatting.
"I really didn't expect this! The group of beast gods that appeared in the Douluo Mortal Realm is so strong, even the mighty Level 1 gods, Thunder God and Sea God, were killed."
"Yeah! Who would've thought that these beast gods would be this powerful? Now even the God Kings, Asura and Destruction Gods, are taking action."
"Heh, although these beast gods have caused quite a stir and led to the loss of many gods in the Divine Realm, with Asura God King and Destruction God King taking action, it's only a matter of time before these beast gods are wiped out."
"Exactly, with Asura God King around, there's no trouble we can't solve!"
The four divine officials stood in a row chatting, completely unaware that Bat King was already swiftly approaching them.
Bat King had already reached within a thousand meters of them, yet the four divine officials still didn't notice.
It wasn't until they were about five hundred meters away that they finally sensed something and saw a blood streak approaching.
"Hey! Look! What's that thing?!"
"Something's wrong! Get ready!"
But it was too late. As soon as they noticed, Bat King had already made his move. At this distance, it was more than enough for Bat King to kill all four with a single blow.
In the blink of an eye, the blood streak emitted a massive wave of bloodthirsty energy, engulfing the four of them.
Shu!
Pu!
"Ahhhhh~!!"
In an instant, their throats were slashed by the bloodthirsty energy, instantly killing them, and they fell to the ground.
The blood in their bodies turned into countless streams of bloodthirsty energy, which Bat King absorbed into his body. By the time Bat King's figure appeared, the blood in the four divine officials had been drained, leaving them as dried corpses.
"Heh, foolish humans," Bat King licked his tongue.
Ye Wen looked on from a distance and smiled, "Let's go, into the Divine Realm!"
"Yes!"
"Roar!!"
Soon, Ye Wen led the group of beast gods, collectively infiltrating the Divine Realm.
Once inside the Divine Realm, it became easier. There were plenty of cover options, and with their strength, they could avoid detection and move deeper inside.
"Gu Yue, now we split up. We'll meet up later when the time is right."
"Good!!"
"Charge!!"
According to the previously assigned teams, Gu Yue and Emperor Tian led a group toward the Divine Realm Forest.
Ye Wen led the rest of the beast gods, searching for the Forbidden Land of the Gods.
The two teams advanced deep into the Divine Realm. Along the way, Ye Wen spotted a Level 3 god. He smiled and turned to Evil Tiger, "Evil Tiger, capture him."
"Got it, Boss!"
Evil Tiger surged forward with terrifying force, instantly appearing in front of the Level 3 god. This god didn't even have time to react in fear before Evil Tiger punched him half-dead.
Before he could even scream, Evil Tiger sealed his throat and body.
Ye Wen quickly appeared next to the Level 3 god.
"Wait, wh... what's going on?!"
The Level 3 god, in panic, thought to himself, "I just came out for a stroll, how did I end up in this situation?!"
