Chapter 1374: No Challenge—The Backlash! The Abyss Arrives!

This trip to the Void Lands yielded Lin Yan a substantial harvest.

You could say it was an unexpected windfall.

By burning the Void Wang Zuo, he pushed the Void Principle to 99%, then left a principle imprint, deepening Lin Yan's mastery of the Void Principle.

Another major gain was the Void Sword.

The Void Sword is composed of 600 grams of Void matter—this is a true Primordial Divine Weapon made entirely of Void substance!

Such a Primordial Divine Weapon, even the Life Goddess and the others likely don't possess.

After all, in the Heavenly Realm, Void substance is exceedingly rare, and there are nine Primordial Deities.

With this harvest, Lin Yan's chances in the coming war have greatly increased.

Moreover, the Void Lands made Lin Yan sense there were many secrets.

Though the Void Lands appeared empty, with only occasional Void Beasts appearing—and those beasts themselves born from Void matter—the very existence of the Void Lands was a secret.

And that ancient Void Wang Zuo.

In his Divine Realm, Lin Yan stepped back in.

"My Lord has returned!"

Weiweila and the Eternal Night Goddess were especially delighted to see Lin Yan return.

In the Heavenly Realm, the balanced principle's backlash—brewing for three full days—was finally about to arrive!

Lin Yan spoke a few words to Weiweila and the others, then stepped instantly to the highest point of his Divine Realm.

Lin Yan's action seemed to trigger a chain reaction; soon, countless Heavenly Realm deities felt the terrifying, boundless backlash surging like boiling water toward Lin Yan on the level of principle.

"Finally here—what a terrifying backlash!"

When the balanced principle's backlash arrived, one Principle Lord turned pale.

This backlash was far greater than the previous two!

Merely sensing its fluctuation gave the impression of suffocation!

That Principle Lord could easily imagine what would happen if he and the Flame Lord switched places.

He probably couldn't last even one second!

"Can the Flame Lord survive this?"

Instantly, countless Principle Lords looked up toward Lin Yan's Divine Realm.

There, at the center of all the storm.

The backlash of the balanced principle surged madly from all directions toward Lin Yan.

As if it would not stop until it crushed him to dust!

"Here it comes!"

In the Life Goddess's Divine Realm, the Life Goddess and the Ocean Goddess both cast their gazes downward.

This backlash surpassed the one the Killing Primordial Deity faced eons ago—they couldn't possibly ignore it!

In other directions, other Heavenly Realm Primordial Deities followed one after another in casting their gazes!

Some gazes carried coldness; others remained calm.

Different stances meant radically different attitudes toward Lin Yan's actions now.

At the storm's center, Lin Yan waved his hand.

Instantly, the surrounding space was locked in place.

But spatial lockdown had no effect whatsoever on the balanced principle's backlash.

The balanced principle's backlash targeted no environment.

It targeted only Lin Yan himself.

Yet Lin Yan's spatial lockdown was never meant to block the backlash—it was to shield against possible surveillance from other Primordial Deities.

So far, no Primordial Deity had forcibly projected their gaze into Lin Yan's Divine Realm.

Forcibly projecting a gaze into Lin Yan's Divine Realm would be tantamount to declaring war.

Once space was sealed, Lin Yan transformed into flame, becoming a burning mass of fire.

This flame was not hot.

It was Lin Yan's Unextinguishable Form.

Then, the balanced principle's backlash struck again!

"Indeed fierce!"

Lin Yan muttered.

This backlash was undeniably far fiercer than the previous two.

Yet, as before, no matter how fierce the balanced principle's backlash, it could not extinguish Lin Yan's flame!

"No pressure."

Lin Yan whispered.

For his flame form, enduring the balanced principle's backlash was truly effortless.

Though effortless for Lin Yan, the Principle Lords in the Heavenly Realm were all terrified.

In the Life Goddess's Divine Realm, the Life Goddess herself rose to her feet, staring at Lin Yan's Divine Realm.

Had Lin Yan not been in the midst of this trial, she would have gone to check on him herself.

"Boom!"

Just as the Heavenly Realm deities fixed their gazes on Lin Yan, a tremor suddenly erupted at the edge of the Heavenly Realm.

This tremor rapidly spread from its origin point across the entire Heavenly Realm.

But it would take some time to reach the Elven Divine Realm.

The ordinary celestial deities had not yet noticed.

But beings above the Masters of Law had already noticed.
