Lu Yin casually waved his hand, and the life force was scattered as easily as a wave of air.
"I lost." Meng Luo's voice was low and gentle, tinged with sadness and despair.
She had tried her best, but the being in front of her was also at the level of Crossing Calamity. He was unfathomable, and she had been unable to fight back.
If one could rely on speed to hit her and experience to avoid a thousand moves, then one could rely on true strength to scatter the life force.
Unparalleled strength.
She had no choice but to admit it.
Lu Yin smiled. "You're not bad. To be honest, there aren't many life forms in the universe that I've seen that are worthy of praise. You're one of them."
"Thank you." Meng Luo didn't know if she was happy or sad.
Lu Yin approached her step by step until he was less than a meter away from her. He could touch her if he raised his hand.
He raised his hand and slowly approached her.
Meng Luo retreated for a moment, but then quickly returned to the distance and allowed Lu Yin to place his hand on her petal. This was a sign of complete submission.
A bet was a bet, and she could go back on her word, but she had no intention of doing so.
"If you could choose again, would you still be willing to make this bet with me?
I'm saying that you need to understand my strength first, "Lu Yin asked.
Meng Luo was bitter. "Of course not."
"But what if I tell you that you've taken the wrong path?"
"What?"
Lu Yin withdrew his hand and looked at her calmly. "It doesn't matter if it's a hundred moves, a thousand moves, or ten thousand moves. Even if you combine all the moves in the universe and become invincible, that's only in terms of moves."
"The universe is fair. When your moves are invincible, it means that you have to pay a price, such as your realm.
Realm. "
Meng Luo was confused. "My realm is fine."
"That's the biggest problem. Have you really found your Calamity?" Lu Yin's words were like thunder that shook Meng Luo.
Waves of confusion surged in her mind.
"Think about it. How long has it been since you've truly thought about immortality?
About this universe?
About yourself? "
"Yes, you're very powerful. You can comprehend the life force and have boundless pride, but where does this pride come from?"
"It comes from your instinctive memories and your reliance on your innate gift."
"This dependence made you what you are, but it also destroyed you."
"A creature once told me that she would rather lose all of her good luck in exchange for the winding path. Only the winding path can lead to eternal life."
"No path to immortality is smooth. But you, your path is too smooth."
Meng Luo blankly floated in place as Lu Yin's words echoed in her ears. Her innate gift had made her invincible in the same realm, but it had also restricted her.
For countless years, it had sought to dismantle moves, to seek true invincibility. But when had it ever considered where its talent came from?
The universe was fair. It gave him talent, but it also became a shackle that restricted him.
"The Divine Palace can remove the shackles of karma, but it cannot remove the shackles on your own body."
His words woke Meng Luo up, and she abruptly headed in a certain direction. That was her residence in the Divine Palace, and it had been a long time since she had returned. Now, she seemed to have thought of something.
Lu Yin stared at its back. Had it been enlightened?
He had broken through to immortality and comprehended too many principles of life. He had seen the ups and downs of the world and had merged into its body. He had felt its state of mind from his own perspective.
It was not difficult.
It all depended on whether Meng Luo could break through in the end.
As for whether Meng Luo would keep her promise after breaking through, Lu Yin did not care. If she did not keep her promise, then he would just kill her. It was not that complicated.
No one knew the result of the battle between Lu Yin and Meng Luo.
When Lu Yin appeared in front of everyone again, he was still wrapped in mist, and no one could see him clearly.
Yan Zhong wanted to ask about the result, but he held back. He guessed that Lu Yin must have been defeated. Otherwise, how could he not publicize his victory over the Divine Palace's number one Sequence Arbiter?
Several years passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, the Divine Palace had been constantly harvesting, and the tributes from the various domains had flowed in endlessly. There were only about ten years left until the Divine Palace handed over their tributes.
On this day, the heavens trembled as a giant Meng Luo Flower enveloped half of the Divine Palace and slowly floated up.
It was not Meng Luo herself, but rather a phantom that contained the dismantling of countless moves.
Countless creatures both inside and outside the Divine Palace saw this and were shocked. They did not understand what was happening.
Only a few creatures could see that Meng Luo was breaking through to the Immortal Realm.
Stargate Shangyu and Ba Rong watched in amazement. Self-breakthrough meant that the upper limit was extremely high. The Divine Palace's number one Sequence Arbiter was indeed capable.
Yan Zhong was envious. Meng Luo was stronger than him even before she broke through, and he did not dare to offend her. She had the same status as the other Oracles. Now that she had successfully broken through, her status in the Divine Palace would be second only to Returning Oracles. This was because the other Oracles had broken through with the help of the universe's reboot.
Self-breakthrough and breaking through with the help of the universe's reboot were two different concepts.
Yan Zhong tried to recall if he had offended her in the past. Hmm, definitely not.
Lu Yin looked up at the Meng Luo Flower with a smile. She had not disappointed him; she had really broken through.
Some creatures had innate gifts that made others jealous. All they lacked was an epiphany.
Humans did not have high origins, but they had great potential. Although they could not compare to these creatures with invincible innate gifts, Lu Yin was glad that he had been born a human.
"That Nie is getting more and more arrogant. He actually challenged Meng Luo. The result must have been simple. Meng Luo defeated him easily and did not even care. Unlike him, he defeated Hao in a high-profile manner. How can Hao compare to Meng Luo? They are not even on the same level," Yan Zhong whispered.
Yan Zhong also said, "Nie has changed since Jingshen Emissary joined the Divine Palace. He used to treat us with respect, but now he doesn't care."
"It's good for him to learn a lesson."
Yan Zhong looked up enviously. "But with Meng Luo's breakthrough, he is naturally the number one in the Divine Palace. He has the right to be arrogant."
As he spoke, the giant Meng Luo Flower bloomed, and countless techniques flew out in all directions.
They were like images that appeared in front of the countless creatures.
These techniques did not have any physical attacks, but they gave off a feeling that they would actually land on the body. In particular, these techniques were accompanied by life force, which brought about substantial pressure. The countless creatures outside the Divine Palace were thrown into chaos, and they constantly tried to avoid the attacks.
Yan Zhong also tried to avoid them, but when he realized that the techniques had no effect on Yan Zhong's body, he sighed in relief.
Within the Divine Palace, Hao gritted his teeth, unwilling to give up. Meng Luo had broken through faster than him.
He did not care about losing to Nie; he was more interested in breaking through to Eternal Life.
Meng Luo wanted to break through, but so did Hao.
Otherwise, he would not have waited so long.
But now, it was too late.
Lu Yin watched the incoming attacks and smiled faintly. He did not know what pattern Meng Luo had comprehended, but he was looking forward to it.
Meng Luo's breakthrough had shaken the Divine Palace, and even the Returning Oracle had returned from the battlefield.
They were guarding her to prevent any accidents.
Meng Luo could be considered an authentic cultivator of the Divine Palace's system. She had joined the Divine Palace before she had even reached the level of Crossing Calamity. Now that she had broken through, her seniority surpassed most of the Oracles.
This breakthrough took several months to complete.
The main reason was that Meng Luo's understanding of the techniques had improved. Lu Yin's words had given her an epiphany, and she had forgotten all of her techniques while in seclusion. Now that she had broken through, those techniques had all returned, and she had even advanced to a higher level.
When the Meng Luo flower faded away, Meng Luo walked out of seclusion. The Meng Luo that appeared in front of the Oracles was no longer a flower, but a woman.
She was beautiful and mysterious, full of grace and gentleness. Her eyes were purple, like a clear purple spring.
When they saw the current Meng Luo, the Returning Oracle and the others were stunned, and they subconsciously looked at the Startling Gate Guardian.
Meng Luo's appearance was no different from the Startling Gate Guardian's, except for the lack of mist. What was going on?
Meng Luo was a Meng Luo flower, and her current form must have been chosen after her breakthrough. Why had she chosen the Startling Gate Guardian's form?
The Startling Gate Guardian knew that Meng Luo and Lu Yin had fought. It seemed that something had happened because of that battle.
The Returning Oracle stepped forward and shook his head. "Congratulations, Meng Luo. You've fulfilled your wish and achieved immortality. From now on, the Divine Palace has another Oracle."
Oracles Shuang Luo, Yan Yan, and the others all stepped forward to congratulate her.
With Meng Luo, the Divine Palace had recovered to ten Oracles, which made them feel relieved.
Meng Luo smiled. She was beautiful and generous. She glanced at the Startled Gate Shangyu and then looked at Oracle Gui Xing. "I'm sorry, but I can't decide whether to stay in God Palace as an Oracle.
Nie Nie will decide. "
The Returning Oracle and the others were confused. "What do you mean?"
The Shuang Luo looked deeply at the Startling Gate Guardian. It had something to do with Nie Nie?
It seemed that there were more and more Oracles involved.
Meng Luo smiled. "It was Nie Nie who helped me break through and gave me some pointers. Before that, I fought with him and lost, and very badly at that. I promised to listen to him from now on. So sorry, if Nie Nie doesn't let me enter the Divine Palace, I really can't."
The Returning Oracle looked at the Startling Gate Guardian. "Is that true, Oracle?"
The Startling Gate Guardian said indifferently, "This is between Nie Nie and Meng Luo. I don't know."
The Returning Oracle looked in the direction of the Divine Palace. "Nie Nie, come here."
Lu Yin slowly walked over and saw that all the Oracles were present. He hadn't expected Meng Luo's breakthrough to be so influential, but it was understandable. The Divine Palace had lost too many Oracles, and Meng Luo's breakthrough was very encouraging, especially since she had broken through on her own. "Greetings, Senior Oracles."
The Returning Oracle looked at Lu Yin. "Nie Nie, Meng Luo said that she'll listen to you from now on?"
Lu Yin looked at Meng Luo and was rather surprised. Meng Luo had kept her promise and even turned into a human. "That's true."
"Nonsense, how can an Oracle listen to a battle god like you?" one of the Oracles scolded.
Lu Yin didn't care and looked at Meng Luo. "Congratulations on breaking through to immortality."
Meng Luo smiled at Lu Yin and bowed slowly. "Thank you for your advice. From now on, Meng Luo will listen to you. Please treat me well."
"Nie Nie, why don't you explain yourself? You were just joking before," one of the Oracles shouted.
At present, besides the four Oracles on the human side, the rest were the Returning Oracles, Shuang Luo, Yan Oracles, and two other Oracles.
They were called Oracles Botian and Oracles Jin.
The one who had scolded Lu Yin was Oracles Botian. It was a very arrogant name, but his strength was average.
