Chapter 1033

But Lin Yan's gain in evolution points was enormous.

Infinite Fire leveled up two more ranks!

Infinite Fire's second stage has ten levels total; Lin Yan is already at level six, just four levels away from reaching Infinite Fire's next stage!

That is, the third stage!

"What is this?"

Lin Yan noticed that after the Void Beast was completely burned away, something remained.

It was a few grains of grayish sand.

Lin Yan quickly knew what these were.

Void Matter!

These few grains of sand could be seen as a few grams of Void Matter!

"This stuff is probably even more precious than Divine Matter?"

Lin Yan thought.

Burning up such a powerful Void Beast—one even a god just entering the fourth tier could hardly defeat—yielded only a few grams of Void Matter.

Void Matter is likely even more precious than Divine Matter.

Lin Yan directly stored them in his storage space.

The battle isn't over yet; he'd study their properties later!

"Airen! He, he…"

Among the goddesses of the Immortal Goddess Pantheon, He Li gripped Airen's hand, stunned into silence.

This scene reminded her of what she had seen far off when leaving the Elf Divine Realm.

Back then, Airen had firmly decided to leave the Elf Divine Realm and journey to the distant Abru Divine Realm, while He Li kept looking back, watching one god after another perish in flames!

"He's fine!"

Airen sighed in relief.

She didn't notice that when Lin Yan instantly killed the Void Beast, the immense will that descended as she crushed the token given by the Goddess Lord had frozen for a moment!

Beside He Li and Airen, the long-legged goddess Rita covered her mouth with her hand—if she removed it, one would see her mouth had opened wide enough to fit a goose egg!

Even she, a Third Rank god, was stunned like this!

Lin Yan had utterly shattered her imagination!

"Bad! His power is too strong!"

The onlookers were merely stunned by Lin Yan's strength.

For Lin Yan's opponents, their moods were far from good!

"Retreat!"

One Divine Lord acted decisively; sensing trouble, he prepared to open a faith channel and flee!

But now, wanting to retreat, it was too late!

The Divine Lord's face instantly changed: "Spatial lockdown!"

"Break it!"

The Divine Lord unleashed all his power to smash the spatial lockdown.

According to his estimate, he needed only two seconds to break through and escape!

But in a god's battlefield, two seconds is enough for far too much to happen!

"Boom!"

Suddenly, fierce flames erupted around the Divine Lord!

The flames were filled with an overwhelmingly terrifying aura.

"No!"

The Divine Lord panicked, abandoning all thought of breaking the spatial lockdown, and tried to fly out of the flames.

But he soon realized that when the flames surrounded him, a spatial prison had already formed around him!

Any temporarily formed spatial prison can be broken, but breaking it requires immense power and time.

With his strength, opening this prison would take at least several minutes!

But under the flames, he couldn't possibly survive that long.

"Flame Lord, spare me! I'm willing to…"

At the critical moment, the Divine Lord cried out for mercy.

But before he finished speaking, the flames surged violently.

How could he withstand flames that even the Void Beast couldn't resist!

Unless he had a suit of armor forged entirely from Divine Matter, with not a single gap, he might have had a chance to block them!

This powerful Divine Lord never even gave his name—he was instantly burned to ashes by Lin Yan.

Meanwhile, Lin Yan's flames had already surrounded the other Divine Lords.

"Spare me…"

Another Divine Lord, seeing escape was impossible, opened his mouth to beg.

But the flames showed no hesitation—they burned him to ashes immediately!

Then the flames surged again, reducing the third Divine Lord to ash!

Among the onlooking Divine Lords, one watched as the others swiftly perished in the flames, and felt icy dread crawl over his entire body!

Those were Divine Lords!

Yet beneath the flames, they were no different from dry leaves consumed by wildfire—utterly unable to resist the fire's burn.

Doesn't this mean that if they had gone up instead, they would likely have met the same fate!

"Thankfully I was cautious enough not to act—Flame Lord clearly meant to establish dominance; to offend his authority, even a Divine Lord would be slain without mercy!"

One Divine Lord, sweat dripping coldly, thought...

This Divine Lord was one of those who had attacked the Eternal Night Empire; just moments ago, he had nearly rushed forward to join the Six Divine Lords in surrounding the Flame Lord.

Upon witnessing the power of the Void Beast, this Divine Lord had felt regret for not joining the attack.

But at this moment, he was grateful he had hesitated just a moment ago!

If he had acted then, his fate would have been the same as these Divine Lords burned to ash!

Not even a chance to beg for mercy!

"The Eternal Night Goddess will surely break through to the fourth tier—this time, there will be heavy losses."

This Divine Lord calculated in his mind.

Was the Eternal Night Empire something he could attack at will and retreat from as he pleased?

Though Lord Tianfeng and Dragon Divine Lord had withdrawn, the price they paid afterward would surely be immense.

And the amount of loss depended on timing.

Those who withdrew first upon sensing danger paid less.

Those like them, who waited until the very end, would surely pay a tremendous price to quell the other side's wrath.

This was also why the Six Divine Lords were unwilling to give up.

If they gave up now, once the Eternal Night Goddess broke through, they would have to bow and grovel, offering vast quantities of precious items and suffering enormous losses.

That was why, after the Demon Soul Zunzhu emerged, the Six Divine Lords had taken the risk!

But now, clearly, they had lost the gamble!

Watching the Divine Lords being slain one after another, this Divine Lord thought: fine, heavy losses it is—after all, he wasn't the worst off.

"Heavy losses are better than losing your life!"

That was what this Divine Lord thought.

Many Divine Lords around him held the same thought.

"Are those really Divine Lords?"

The gods watching from the surroundings were all stunned.

What in heaven had they just witnessed?

They had seen Divine Lords falling one after another!

The speed of their deaths made them doubt whether these were truly Divine Lords!

When the Six Divine Lords had acted moments ago, their aura had been terrifying.

Especially after unleashing fourth-tier divine power, the combined force of the Six Divine Lords' attacks had already equaled the full power of a single fourth-tier god!
