Zhang Yue held the Angel's Wings in his hand, and immediately began to use them to absorb the soul of the God of Desire, Wu En.
The next moment, the golden wings in his hands erupted with an even stronger radiance.
["Ding~ Congratulations! You have obtained a Super-Mythic-grade treasure: [Angel's Wings]!"]
["Ding~ Do you wish to activate immediately and form a binding contract with the Angel's Wings?"]
Zhang Yue answered without hesitation: "Yes."
In the next second, the Angel's Wings in his hands transformed into a streak of light and merged into his body.
At first glance, it seemed like nothing had happened.
But only Zhang Yue, as the host, could feel the surge of immense power coursing throughout his body, finally converging on both sides of his back.
Before Zhang Yue even had time to fully absorb that power, suddenly, another system notification dropped.
["Ding~ Congratulations on killing [God of Desire · Wu En]. Would you like to convert the target into your Supreme Death Servant?
(Current number of Supreme Death Servants has reached the limit. Continuing will replace one of your existing Supreme Death Servants.)
(System detects that the God of Desire's strength exceeds that of your current second Supreme Death Servant, the Demon Eye Enno. It is recommended that you proceed with substitution.)]
The strength of a Main God was unquestionable.
However, Zhang Yue still felt a little reluctant to part with the Demon Eye. After all, he had only just captured that King-level BOSS, and it had only been used once.
Unfortunately, the upper-tier Necromancer summoning allowed only two Supreme Death Servant slots. He couldn't keep all three.
Between the two, of course Zhang Yue was willing to replace Demon Eye Enno with the God of Desire Wu En.
After all, one was a level 450 Main God, the other only a level 230 King-level BOSS.
There was simply no comparison between the two.
Just as Zhang Yue completed the transformation, a sudden private message popped up from Ouyang Ling'er, ["Guild Master! Hurry and check on your wife, she's about to die!"]
"Damn!"
Zhang Yue opened a screen before him, revealing a live broadcast feed from inside the Gate of Immortality, showing the real-time battle between Chen Zijin and the Demon Emperor.
It was clear that Chen Zijin was on the defensive. She wasn't attacking at all, merely fending off the Demon Emperor's relentless strikes, doing everything she could to delay him.
But even with a purely defensive stance, she was still unable to withstand his overwhelming power.
In the feed, the Demon Emperor stood in shining golden armor, sword in hand, his presence as oppressive as Death itself. The mere sight of him made every viewer watching hold their breath.
From Chen Zijin's first-person perspective, countless viewers around the world witnessed her desperate defense. Each parry broken through by the Demon Emperor, forcing her to retreat again and again.
Even through the screen, one could feel the suffocating pressure she was under.
["Poor streamer… she's just a girl, and she has to face such an insanely powerful opponent!"]
["Yeah… the Demon Emperor's strength is even higher than the Three Main Gods! His power level has clearly surpassed the King tier, it's already entering the next realm!"]
["Give up, streamer! Run! This is an unwinnable fight, no one expects you to face an enemy you can't possibly defeat!"]
But unexpectedly, Chen Zijin saw the flood of live comments from viewers around the world.
She looked up at the Demon Emperor Yu, who was slowly approaching, and said, "Can't win?"
"I don't understand that!"
"In my dictionary, there's no such word as retreat!"
In that instant, the entire world fell silent.
No one watching could help but be moved by the girl before them. Delicate in appearance, but with a willpower stronger than steel.
At this moment, the Demon Emperor Yu also raised his longsword.
"This battle… is over."
As his words fell, he began to release his power.
Rumble! Rumble!
High above, endless streams of black energy descended from the heavens, gathering upon the blade of the Demon Emperor's sword.
At the same time, his entire body radiated an increasingly intense aura of darkness.
The ground trembled violently.
The sky cracked open.
The sheer force emanating from him had clearly surpassed that of a quasi-King-level BOSS, and the rapidly rising pressure made every onlooker break into cold sweat.
["What… what the hell is this power?"]
["This aura, it's far beyond King-class! What rank is this guy?"]
["Could it be… there really is a level higher than King-class BOSSes?"]
As everyone shouted in disbelief, the live feed began to shake violently.
It was clear that the situation at the scene had spiraled completely out of control.
Even those outside the Gate of Immortality dungeon, merely standing in the Death Territory beyond, could already feel a cataclysmic power taking shape.
Lightning flashed in the skies.
The ground convulsed.
Everyone present felt a deep, primal sense of dread.
And then, system announcements began to rain down from the heavens.
[System Announcement: "Ding~ Attention all players within the Death Territory of the World 44: System has detected the emergence of Emperor-Class BOSS – Demon Emperor. Danger coefficient: 1000%. All players must evacuate the Death Territory immediately!"]
[System Announcement: "Ding~ Attention all players within the Death Territory of the World 44: System has detected the emergence of Emperor-Class BOSS – Demon Emperor. Danger coefficient: 1000%. All players must evacuate the Death Territory immediately!"]
[System Announcement: "Ding~ Attention all players within the Death Territory of the World 44: System has detected the emergence of Emperor-Class BOSS – Demon Emperor. Danger coefficient: 1000%. All players must evacuate the Death Territory immediately!"]
Three consecutive announcements echoed through the sky, raising the tension, fear, and panic of everyone inside and outside the battlefield to the absolute peak.
"What the hell? Emperor-Class BOSS, what even is that?"
"Wait, you mean there's something above a King-Class BOSS?"
"Oh my god! In the hundred years since the Otherworld descended upon Earth, we've never even heard of an Emperor-Class BOSS!!"
———
[Dragon Nation's Capital, Longcheng]
Inside a grand hall, Wolong, Yinlong, and Xuanlan all frowned as they watched the live broadcast.
"The Master was right. This Demon Emperor's power truly surpasses the King-class, it's already reached the next Territory."
"It seems the Otherworld is far deeper than we ever imagined. What humanity has seen so far… may be nothing more than the tip of the iceberg."
Even the three elders could feel the threat from this growing, monstrous energy
———
Meanwhile—
On the battlefield, Chen Zijin, facing this overwhelming power at close range, felt her legs trembling uncontrollably.
"Oh god…"
"Can I take back what I just said…?"
"Zhang Yue, help! Help me!!"
Chen Zijin: "Save me! Save me!"
Zhang Yue: "Got it."
