Evil curled his lips into a smirk, "Do you really think you can take on three at once? Of course, the third one isn't your wife. Considering it's the Asura God, I guess your wife the Life Goddess is more likely to stand by as a spectator rather than help you."
Upon hearing this, the Destruction God's throat moved. He looked towards the Life Goddess and saw that she was using her gaze to stop him.
"Hmph!"
The Destruction God, angered, pushed Evil away but did not advance further.
He vented his dissatisfaction with a hoarse voice, "What exactly is the Asura God observing?! This is the first time I've seen him this cowardly, so cowardly that he doesn't even dare to show his face!"
Evil tugged at the corner of his mouth without responding. He walked over to his wife and skillfully took her hand, then muttered under his breath, "The aura of destruction emanating from that guy is truly nauseating."
"I can hear you."
The Destruction God said darkly.
Evil turned around feigning surprise, and quickly apologized awkwardly, "Sorry, so sorry! I accidentally spoke my mind to my wife!"
The Destruction God: "..."
Just then, the Life Goddess looked in the direction of Lin Yi with a shocked expression.
"Look, what are they doing?"
They saw the nearly thousand people approach again, encircling the youth Tuan Tuan in the middle, while the two who had been preparing to attack the youth stood in front of him again, as if they were about to conduct some sacred ceremony.
The four strongest gods of the Divine Realm were completely befuddled by the actions of this group of humans, utterly mystified.
At the same time, a transparent gold-colored protective barrier enveloped these nearly thousand individuals. The barrier was extensive, emitting a dazzling golden color at times and colorful halos at others, a kind of energy fluctuation that none of the four gods could recognize, incredibly special.
"This is probably why the Asura God chose to observe this youth first instead of acting rashly like you, isn't it?"
Evil murmured, disbelief in his eyes.
The Destruction God, clenching his teeth with a dark expression, said, "I refuse to believe it, the Divine Realm is not a place for humans to run amok!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward before Evil even had time to react. Mist rose in layers, and the Destruction God, like a poisoned arrow, struck the barrier with a punch enveloped in purple destruction energy.
The barrier swiftly concaved, with large purple cracks appearing on its surface. Destruction curled his lips with pride, and just as he tried to break through, the barrier, after showing large cracks, instantly returned to normal, repelling his fist.
Evil, who had been about to step forward to stop Destruction, froze on the spot before choosing not to intervene, and chuckled, "Incredible."
"Impossible..."
Destruction gasped in shock. He threw several more punches and even used skills, but each time the barrier cracked, it immediately restored itself to its original state.
Lin Yi merely glanced briefly at the scene outside before returning his attention to Emperor Xueye and Chen Xin.
"Begin the attack."
Emperor Xueye's legs trembled slightly, "Is it really the right time now? Senior, that purple guy outside is acting like a madman."
After speaking, he quickly covered his mouth as if afraid of being overheard by the Destruction God.
Lin Yi nodded, "You just focus on attacking, leave all the variables to me to handle."
Chen Xin nodded solemnly, "Yes!"
Emperor Xueye had no choice but to nod and follow suit.
The excitement and anticipation that the human Soul Masters initially felt upon arriving in the Divine Realm had completely vanished, leaving only deep-seated fear in their hearts.
That purple creature, even Gu Yuena was unable to touch him at all. If it weren't for Senior Lin Yi's timely intervention, the Emerald Swan would probably be dead by its hand.
It's truly terrifying, the peak combat effectiveness Gu Yuena, even when facing a god, seemed so powerless.
And yet, the ferocious beasts seemed much more relaxed than when they first arrived, as if facing the gods directly had dissipated much of their fear. Plus, with Lin Yi backing them up, acting as their guardian deity, these gods seemed even less frightening.
Outside the barrier, Evil came over, curious, "What are they saying inside?"
Destruction placed his hands on the barrier, his expression somber, "I can't hear, my Divine Sense can't penetrate it."
Evil nodded, sighing, "What exactly happened on Soul Land? The humans there are so powerful, no wonder I heard that Asura God is looking for an inheritor from Soul Land. I should go check it out when I have a chance."
The Life Goddess shook her head, "What's strong may not be Soul Land, but that young man. He has a life essence even richer than mine, but the other humans are very normal, very ordinary, very weak, no different from those of other continents."
"What?"
The Destruction God turned his head in surprise, "A life essence richer than yours? Are you joking?"
The Life Goddess was his wife, so he naturally understood what his wife's words meant and implied.
Both Evil and Kindness were equally shocked, as if they had heard something inconceivable.
The Life Goddess continued to look at Destruction, carrying on, "So even if you strike him with all your might, he won't die, he might even sustain only a barely visible minor injury, maybe… not even a scratch."
Evil stepped forth, a look of eagerness for the drama said, "So this young man, he has a richer essence of life than the Life Goddess, is more adept at destruction than the Destruction God, he's a higher level god than me? No wonder even Asura God dares not show his face."
Evil had clearly observed the scene where Lin Yi crushed the arm of the Destruction God.
"Nonsense! He and I haven't had a real confrontation, what's the use of mere analysis?"
Destruction's hoarse voice carried feelings of defiance and anger.
Just then, four gods seemed to feel something, and all looked back.
There, a man in dark red armor was walking slowly towards them. He had an ordinary appearance, a frosty and majestic presence, and his face was etched with an aura that warned strangers to keep away.
Destruction clenched his teeth and scoffed, "Asura God... Heh, isn't that the Asura God who has been hiding and observing? Why not continue to hide?"
Asura God, facing Destruction God's mockery, continued to walk forward as if he hadn't heard anything. The layers of fog around him didn't disperse; instead, his movements slowed, as if freezing in place, and only returned to normal after he had walked some distance.
"Respected Lord Asura God, you said before that you have been observing this youth for quite a while now. I wonder, when did you start? I didn't have the chance to ask earlier."
The Evil God seemed to show considerable respect towards Asura God, performing a gentlemanly bow as a fledgling god, and his wife, the Kindness God clothed in a fiery red dress, likewise carried out the movements gracefully, lifting the sides of her dress and following her husband's lead in a bow.
"Have you seen Thor?"
Asura God didn't respond directly but instead asked the other gods an inexplicably cold question with his voice.
Destruction responded in a hoarse voice, "The level 3 god, Thor, who governs a part of the human realm's heavenly tribulations?"
The Asura God nodded coldly, "He is the one I have the most dealings with. It's normal that you're not familiar with him."
"Once, he deliberately avoided me. I found it very strange, so I searched him out to inquire; I discovered he was severely injured. I used my Divine Sense to retrace his experiences and found that he had left the Divine Realm for a period, and went to Soul Land."
At this, the Asura God's ice-cold gaze turned towards the scene inside the barrier and he added, "That is, the continent where these humans come from."
"He went to Soul Land for no reason and returned with severe injuries, but he refused to say what happened. I found this very odd."
"Considering the irregularities from before, I realized that things are not as simple as they appear."
As he spoke, Asura God's ice-cold gaze settled on Lin Yi.
