In the Divine Palace, a rogue was on par with an emissary, and most of them were very ordinary.
It didn't matter if they broke through or not.
If they broke through, they would be bound by karma, and they would have to rely on battle achievements to reduce it.
Thus, the most comfortable and free person in the Divine Palace was the first sequence.
It was very simple to become a divine art sequence, and all they had to do was fight their way up.
The ranking of the sequences depended on their combat power.
Rock Attack had broken through to the Origin Realm, but it couldn't become a sequence unless it defeated a certain sequence.
Outside of the sequence, there were also some Origin Realm combatants who were confident that they could become a sequence, but they didn't want to because they weren't ready. Otherwise, once they became a sequence, they would be forced to try to break through to immortality, which would be the end of them if they failed.
This was the rule of the Divine Palace.
If one wanted to break through, they had to become a sequence, and it couldn't be done by luck. The seventh sequence had it worse than the Origin Realm combatants, and only the first sequence was the most comfortable.
This was the current situation between the Divine Palace sequence and the Origin Realm combatants.
Lu Yin had just broken through to the Origin Realm, but he wanted to become one of the Divine Palace's sequences.
Emissary Shuang Luo immediately came over and explained the situation.
"If you become the seventh sequence, Traceless will find a way to restart a cosmic civilization, and you will have to try to break through, unless one of the first six sequences is willing. But even if one of the other sequences is willing to try, it can restart another one. You will be too passive," Emissary Shuang Luo advised.
"Do you know that among the Origin Realm combatants, there are some who can become a sequence in the Divine Palace but don't fight for it because they are afraid of this?"
"It doesn't matter. Let him go," Stargate Shangyu said.
Emissary Shuang Luo looked at Stargate Shangyu.
"Is he ready to break through to immortality?"
Lu Yin said, "I'm not challenging the seventh sequence."
The sequence also lived in the Divine Palace, and they didn't have to submit offerings or enter the battlefield.
Lu Yin walked out of Stargate Shangyu's building and raised his head, his voice spreading throughout the Divine Palace. "Origin Realm combatant, Nie, challenges the second sequence, Hao. Please fight."
His voice not only spread throughout the Divine Palace, but it also spread out so that countless creatures could hear him.
Emissary Returning Emissary, Emissary Wu Hen, and the others were all shocked. He was directly challenging the second sequence?
Was this guy that confident?
The Returning Act Oracle recalled his experience on the battlefield. He was indeed confident. This fellow could even fight against an Eternal Life Realm expert. However, to a certain extent, he was similar to Hao. If he wanted to win, unless he had a huge breakthrough, he could at most remain undefeated.
The stone monster. Ba Rong looked over with a weird gaze. This was bullying a kid.
Ambassador Yan was in the middle of assigning territories, and when he heard Lu Yin's challenge, he felt a little apprehensive. He was the one who had given Lu Yin the Godless Sealed Region, but now, Lu Yin seemed to be getting more and more out of control. With Ambassador Jingshen and Ambassador Shuang Luo behind him, would Lu Yin cause trouble for him?
No, definitely not. Godly Emissary Gui Xing had also set him up. Godly Emissary Gui Xing was the one who was second only to the master of the Divine Palace.
As long as Gui Xing Divine Envoy said a word, no one could jump.
Outside the Divine Palace, Yan Gong and his son were shocked. Was this Nie crazy?
They hurriedly entered the divine palace.
In the corner of the Divine Palace, in an almost inconspicuous building, lived Hao, the second sequence of the Divine Palace.
The residence of the sequence of the Divine Palace was far less than that of the Divine Emissaries, but after all, they still had a place in the Divine Palace.
Hao opened his eyes, and a ferocious glint flashed in his eyes. "You have guts, to challenge me directly.
It was that guy who went to the battlefield, and he still dares to challenge him. "
"Hmph, if you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish."
"You think you can do it just because you have a Divine Emissary behind you?"
With that, he walked out of the building.
Outside the Divine Palace, under the starry sky, Lu Yin stood quietly. Not too far away, Yan Gong rushed over and tried to persuade him. "Nie, do you really want to challenge Hao?"
Lu Yin calmly replied, "Of course."
Yan Gong was helpless. "You underestimate him too much. Do you know what Hao's abilities are?"
Of course he knew, and he knew better than anyone else. He had fused with Hao's body.
Hao could be considered the most simplistic of all the creatures that Lu Yin had encountered. No other creature could be more simplistic than him. He only had two methods: one was defense, and the other was a punch. It was that simple, and there was nothing else.
But with just these two methods, he was able to secure his position as the second sequence of the Divine Palace. He could be considered a model of simplicity.
His body was a round, ball-like thing with spikes protruding from the surface. They were both sharp and tough, and this was his defensive method.
He had spent his whole life honing those spikes. He had done nothing else but temper the spikes. He had tempered the spikes thousands of times, and finally reached the level where his defense was comparable to that of an ordinary Eternal Being. Those spikes had the ability to fuse with the Eternal Matter. It could be said that he had achieved the strongest defense in the same realm.
Even an Eternal Being with weaker defense could not compare to him.
And his attack was a fist-like existence protruding from the ball. Its name was even more strange. It was called the Heaven's Fall and Earth's Shattering Fist. The moment he punched, the spikes on the surface of his body would be retracted, and the force of the retracted spikes would be converted into the force of the attacking fist.
It had the destructive power comparable to that of an ordinary Eternal Being. Similarly, it was fused with the Eternal Matter, and its power was even stronger.
With just one hand for defense and the other for punching, all the powerhouses who wanted to challenge him were forced to retreat.
It could be said that even if it was left in the Ninth Heaven Universe, it was enough to fight against the God of Defense.
As long as it was in the same realm, no matter how many tricks you had or how strong your battle skills were, it was almost impossible to do anything to him.
Unless the destructive power exceeded the current realm.
Rock Attack explained Hao's ability, which was roughly the same as what Lu Yin had said. The only thing he did not know was that Hao could fuse with the Eternal Matter. Hao had not revealed this to the outside world, nor did he need to reveal it. He could suppress the other challengers by himself.
God Emissary Shuang Luo said to Startle Gate Shangyu, "It's best not to challenge Hao. Although Hao's methods are simple, the more simple it is, the harder it is to defeat him. He can never defeat Meng Luo, but it is almost impossible to defeat him at the same level."
Startle Gate Shangyu said, "No problem, just treat it as an experience."
As they spoke, Hao arrived.
Under the gaze of countless creatures, he looked at Lu Yin. It was obviously a ball, but it had eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. This was the characteristic of most life in the universe.
No matter how you looked at it, it looked like a ball that had become a spirit.
"You want to challenge me?
Then come, let's end it quickly. "
As he spoke, he looked past Lu Yin to Jingmen Shangyu. "If I accidentally kill you, I hope you won't mind, Divine Emissary."
Lu Yin stepped forward. "It's fine. Since it's a battle, life and death are up to fate."
"Alright, you can attack now. I'm afraid that if I attack, you won't have a chance," Hao said loudly, full of arrogance.
Of the seven God Palaces, he was indeed the most arrogant.
Stoneattack was backed by the Third Sequence, and he was already in the God Palace.
He had the intention of tyrannically abusing others, but the Third Sequence did not dare challenge Hao.
Lu Yin attacked, using the power of the Mountain Moon Illuminating the Sunset and the Tide Returning to the Empty Plains to test Hao's defenses.
Hao's defenses were impenetrable, and his entire body was surrounded by spikes. No matter what kind of power hit him, he was unaffected. Each spike could easily dissipate the power of the attack.
He even stood in place without moving, allowing Lu Yin to attack as he pleased.
This continued until Lu Yin tested out all of his attacks.
"It's over?
Then it's my turn. "
Hao charged at Lu Yin, who hurriedly dodged. Hao sneered, and outside the ball, the spikes suddenly retracted, and the imprint of a fist protruded out. Heaven's Fall, Earth's Shattering Fist.
Boom!
A loud explosion shook the universe, and countless creatures felt as if they had been punched. That punch shook the heavens and the earth.
Even the heavens were pushed aside, and countless cracks appeared.
Lu Yin wanted to dodge, but he was enveloped by the fist's destructive power. He could only use the power of Origination to dissipate it. He was quite proficient in this technique, and Divine Envoy Shuang Luo's eyes lit up. She could not help but praise him.
Within the God Palace, Divine Envoy Gui Xing shook his head. He had long since guessed that this would happen.
Nie had been able to survive Sharp Fang's attack, which meant that he was quite familiar with the use of Origination. This was why Gui Xing had wanted to take him in as a disciple, but Origination alone was not enough to defeat Hao.
Hao had not expected Lu Yin to actually withstand this attack.
Cultivating the power of Origin was equivalent to taking a shortcut from Bitter Adversity to the Eternal Realm, and it did not bring about much of a transformation in power.
Lu Yin had challenged Hao after becoming a Battle God of Origin, which had seemed laughable to Hao, and even humiliating.
But now, it seemed that Lu Yin was not completely incapable.
He thought about it and punched out again.
The heavens exploded.
Lu Yin did not.
He used Origination to dissipate the might of Hao's fist technique and barely managed to withstand it.
Stoneman's eyes widened. Origination could be used like this?
No wonder Nie had dared to challenge Hao. If Stoneman had faced Hao, he would not have been able to withstand a single punch.
Now that Lu Yin was in a stalemate, Stoneman finally understood why Lu Yin had dared to challenge Hao.
He had probably been taught by the Dazzling Divine Envoy.
"How long can you last like this?" Hao wanted to end the battle as soon as possible, so he continued to approach Lu Yin and attack with his fist technique.
Lu Yin used Origination to dissipate the attacks while keeping an eye on Nie. He did not move too far away and was instead approaching.
The other lifeforms did not understand, but the farther one was from Hao, the more one could endure. Could it be that Nie really wanted to defeat Hao?
The two continued to approach each other, and Hao's fist technique grew stronger while Lu Yin's use of Origination grew stronger as well. He was also hiding his strength.
This infuriated Hao, and he could not help but use the Eternal Substance.
"Careful!" Divine Envoy Shuang Luo cried out. She had seen the Eternal Substance.
Hao sneered and punched out. Die!
Lu Yin looked up. Now was the time. He took a step forward, and the power of Origination began to circulate madly. He came and went as if he were returning. The fist's violent might was accompanied by the power of Origination, and in that instant, it was diverted away from its original course.
Divine Envoy Gui Xing was shocked. Lu Yin had actually used Origination to such an extent?
This brat might even be able to comprehend karma.
This was the best use of Origination that Gui Xing had seen so far.
Hao's fist had been diverted by Origination, which was something that Gui Xing had not expected. Lu Yin took advantage of this opportunity to punch out as well. Hao's body was covered in spikes for defense, but they were useless.
Lu Yin's fist struck Hao with a thump. Hao sneered at first, but then he was shocked, and finally, stunned. His body fell heavily to the ground outside the divine palace.
One of his spikes had been forcefully shattered, and cracks had appeared on his body.
