Chapter 1015: A Stunning Sword Strike! The Roaring Fourth Rank!

"Sss!"

In the Heavenly Realm, a great wave of sharp intakes of breath rang out!

All these Divine Lords were terrified!

To annihilate a Divine Lord avatar with Third Rank Sacred Domain power in such an instant—unless one possessed a Fourth Rank Sacred Domain, and an exceptionally powerful one at that—was utterly impossible!

Know this: this time, these Divine Lords had all descended avatars.

Over twenty Divine Lord avatars in total.

Not like before, when Empress Tina had faced only a few Divine Lord avatars!

This means Lin Yan's realm hosts a powerful Fourth Rank Sacred Domain standing guard!

"This is trouble!"

Many Divine Lords felt a dread rising.

But the worst dread came from the nine Divine Systems belonging to the nine empires attacking the Eternal Night Empire!

Other Divine Lords could leave at will.

They, too, could leave at will.

In fact, some Divine Lords had already fled upon sensing danger, then cast their Sacred Spirits to observe from afar.

But the Divine Lords of those nine empires could not simply leave.

The armies of the nine empires still occupied the Eternal Night Capital.

Each empire had roughly three to four million troops—powerful, fiercely devoted warriors, the elite of their realms.

Among them, First Rank warriors were rare; most were Second Rank, with Third and Fourth Rank warriors everywhere.

The Temple Knights, in particular, were led by Fourth Rank knights, with vast numbers of Fifth and Sixth Rank, and even many Seventh Rank knights.

The mages were the same.

Moreover, these armies contained Sacred Domains and countless legendary forbidden spells.

Without exaggeration, the faith energy contributed by these three to four million troops likely rivaled that of three to four hundred million ordinary people.

"Hahaha, let's see how you clean up this mess!"

The happiest among all present were Lord Xingluo and Lord Ziyun.

These two who had suffered great losses now felt immense satisfaction.

Especially upon seeing Iron Horn's fate, their lingering bitterness eased considerably.

They had merely suffered losses.

But Iron Horn had lost his life!

"Great Flame Zunzhu, my Tianfeng Divine System came solely to intercept the Eternal Night Goddess and knew nothing of her connection to you. Since you have intervened to protect her, my Tianfeng Divine System has no intention of opposing you—we withdraw from this interception. As for the damage inflicted upon the Eternal Night Empire by this war, we shall personally come to compensate you!"

Lord Tianfeng acted with decisive speed, though strictly speaking, Lin Yan and the Demon Soul Zunzhu had not yet settled their contest.

After all, when the Demon Soul Zunzhu struck, he had no knowledge of Lin Yan's true power—it was merely a casual blow.

But Tianfeng had already decided to withdraw completely from this interception.

Seeing Lord Tianfeng emerge, Lord Tianlong also flew out and repeated Tianfeng's words with slight alterations, publicly pleading for mercy!

Lin Yan cast a cool glance at the two; Lord Tianfeng and Lord Tianlong trembled inwardly.

"The compensation terms are decided by the Zunzhu—whatever the Zunzhu says, stands!"

Lord Tianfeng hurriedly added.

Only then did Lin Yan withdraw his gaze.

Lord Tianfeng and Lord Tianlong exhaled in relief and quickly departed.

"Boom!"
