Relying on his own strength alone, he fought two main gods single-handedly.
In the process, he even managed to drive one of them away.
As for the remaining God of Desire, Wu En, he was completely beaten down from start to finish, utterly powerless to fight back.
Such a scene, it was impossible not to be shaken by it.
The terrifying power displayed by the Necromancer, Zero, left countless people filled with awe and respect.
["Unbelievable… is he really a human being like us? In the entire recorded history of the Otherworld, even facing a King-level Boss one-on-one was already something that monsters like the Ghost Swordsman Elfa, Frost Mage Kwon Ji-hyun, or even the Hell Dragon Knight Restiev couldn't accomplish. And yet, he's fighting a Main God alone…"]
["It seems that, given time, the Dragon Nation will surely surpass the Beacon and become the strongest nation in the world!"]

On the Battlefield—
Just as Ouyang Ling'er had prophesied, what Zhang Yue was now undergoing was a battle of ascension to godhood.
The instant he activated the spatial barrier, it was shattered instantly.
All escape routes, by air, land, and water, were completely sealed off.
Every path of retreat for the God of Desire was utterly blocked.
In the end, under Zhang Yue's storm-like ferocious assault, the God of Desire Wu En could no longer hold on and was knocked violently to the ground.
When the health bar above his head dropped to just 3%, the God of Desire unfurled three pairs of dark golden wings, forming a pyramid-shaped fortress that stood upright on the ground, completely encasing and protecting him.
In this state, he was indeed covered from every direction, 360 degrees without a single blind spot. His angelic wings shielding him completely. From no angle, from no direction, could a single flaw be found.
However, at that sight, Zhang Yue merely gave a faint smile.
"Perhaps you've forgotten."
"Your opponent this time… is Asura."
The moment those words fell, Zhang Yue suddenly crouched down.
Boom!
He struck the ground with his Transcendent Staff, causing endless lightning power to seep beneath the earth.
While the spectators outside the barrier were still confused and bewildered by Zhang Yue's strange action, he continued channeling mana deep into the ground.
For a moment, the entire land fell silent.
Until the next second—
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Countless powerful bolts of lightning suddenly erupted from beneath the ground right below the God of Desire Wu En, breaking through the earth and piercing straight through his body from below.
RUMBLE!
Lightning so blinding it could make one's eyes explode shot up to the heavens like a divine blade, piercing both sky and earth, and simultaneously skewering the God of Desire's entire body.
His health bar, which had only 3% left, was rapidly consumed by the continuous corrosion of this immense power, draining to nothing.
"ROOAARGH…"
With an earth-shattering roar, the God of Desire's defensive stance collapsed. Just as he tried to stand, crackling currents surged across his entire body, and then his massive form fell heavily to the ground.
Crash!
Bathed in streaks of dazzling golden light, Zhang Yue stood like one basking in warm sunlight.
["Ding~ Congratulations! You've leveled up! Current level: 225…"]
["Ding~ Congratulations! You've leveled up! Current level: 226…"]
["Ding~ Congratulations! You've leveled up! Current level: 227…"]
["Ding…"]
Whether standing in the dark forest or watching through the live broadcast, professional players from every nation around the world were utterly stunned at this very moment.
["Zero actually solo-killed a Main God!"]
["What the! That's insane!"]
["He's even scarier than a Main God himself!"]
On the battlefield, the experience points from killing a level 240 Main God made Zhang Yue's EXP bar skyrocket.
After all, although the God of Desire appeared to everyone as level 240, in truth he was limited by the constraints of the Death Territory of the World 44.
Once here, even a Main God had to abide by this realm's rules.
However, this did not change the fact that the God of Desire's true potential had already recovered to level 450.
So, Zhang Yue's killing of a "level 240" God of Desire was, in reality, equivalent to slaying a level 450 Main God.
The immense flood of experience was enough to boost Zhang Yue's level instantly from 224 all the way up to 235.
A leap of 11 levels.
The golden light of eleven consecutive level-ups rained down upon Zhang Yue, while people across the world gasped in amazement, eleven times in a row.
Zhang Yue, who had already become a legend after slaying the God of Wrath in the Hell Arena, had once again completed another Godhood Battle.
And the slaying of the God of Desire Wu En, this had already been part of Zhang Yue's grand plan.
Therefore, after killing him, Zhang Yue didn't seem particularly thrilled. Instead, he looked slightly disappointed.
"What a pity… that Hydra got away."
His original plan had been to kill both the God of Desire and the God of Malevolence at the same time, seizing the two divine souls within them.
But unexpectedly, the God of Malevolence escaped.
"Well, one is better than none," he muttered, "Besides, leaving one Main God alive gives me something to look forward to."
After all, if he defeated all three Main Gods too quickly, there would be nothing left for him to anticipate.
When the battle was over, Zhang Yue walked toward the corpse of the God of Desire Wu En.
Even as one of the three great Main Gods, even in death, the God of Desire still stood upright, unbending.
His three pairs of wings supported his towering body, his eighteen eyes on his head wide open in death, refusing to close.
Even dead, his body emanated an aura of sheer intimidation.
Even those professional players watching from afar in the dark forest didn't dare approach, fearing that the God of Desire might suddenly resurrect the next second.
Zhang Yue walked straight up to the fallen god.
Looking up at the towering figure before him, he sighed softly.
"A thousand years… it's time for you to rest."
With that, Zhang Yue began to collect the battle spoils.
Just like the God of Wrath, the God of Desire had exploded with loot.
He remembered that when he killed the God of Wrath, the most valuable drops had been the infinitely growing Wrath God Set, the mythic artifact "Wrath Source Stone," and the 5S-ranked Forbidden Spell skill book, Thunder's Fury.
Even without checking, Zhang Yue could already imagine that the loot from the God of Desire would be no worse.
However, for now, he had no time to inspect them.
Because although this battle was over, inside the Gate of Eternal Life, the battle between Chen Zijin and the Demon Emperor was still raging on.
And with Chen Zijin's current strength, she was only getting crushed by the Demon Emperor.
Zhang Yue had to hurry over and help her.
So, without examining the ordinary loot in detail, he simply scooped it all up and tossed it into his storage space, deciding to check them later when he had time.
Right now, the only thing that mattered was the DIVINE Soul of the God of Desire: The Angel's Wings.
Only when a Main God is killed permanently will their Divine Soul detach and absorb the remnants of their spirit.
Zhang Yue reached out and touched the God of Desire's wings.
In the next instant, the three pairs of enormous dark-golden wings transformed into countless points of golden starlight, gathering into his hands.
At the same time, the God of Desire's soul was drawn into the wings…
