I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 619: Helpless Acceptance and the Opportunity for Advancement

As soon as the effect of "Contempt of Reincarnation" triggered, the Ram-Head Divine Envoy's downfall was utterly inevitable.

Lin Yi positioned himself amid the battlefield's core, enveloped by the Blue Star Will's blessing, as though fusing seamlessly with heaven and earth.

His eyes burned with intensity, while the Taichu Law grasped in his hand solidified into unseen chains that swiftly bound the Ram-Head Divine Envoy's form. Its mobility was locked down, and in that instant, the Power of Law inside it got thoroughly extracted.

One second of absolute restraint may appear insignificant for typical professionals, yet for an elite like Lin Yi, it suffices to flip the battle's outcome.

Furthermore, the defensive Law barrier around the Ram-Head Divine Envoy vanished entirely right then.

Through "Reincarnation Vision," Lin Yi pierced the Ram-Head Divine Envoy's vulnerability.

A golden glow hid deep in its core, resembling a pulsing heart yet so delicate it could break with the slightest contact.

Acting swiftly, Lin Yi unleashed the Taichu Law—surpassing Harmonization Level—to craft a tangible Bone-Piercing Nail, brutally stabbing into the Ram-Head Divine Envoy's frame.

"Pshh—"

The nail's entry caused the Ram-Head Divine Envoy's body to tremble fiercely, as the battle lust and divine arrogance in its gaze faded bit by bit.

Simultaneously, Lin Yi seized the Divine Power granted by Zacks, reshaping it into a golden serpent that wound tightly around the Ram-Head Divine Envoy.

Golden symbols crawled over its hide, finally weaving into sealing marks that fully sealed away its Divine Power.

By the time the Ram-Head Divine Envoy reclaimed bodily command, the fight's result was beyond saving.

It avoided frenzy or angry bellows, instead facing Lin Yi's stare with serene composure.

Within those profound eyes lingered acceptance of fate and a subtle exhaustion.

"No wonder even Lord Calamity fell at your hands," the Ram-Head Divine Envoy uttered deliberately, its tone deep and raspy. "The cards in your hand are probably not just these, are they?"

Lin Yi offered no reply, just observing it in silence.

The Ram-Head Divine Envoy's Power of Law stood fully suppressed; even if Lin Yi ignored it, no trouble would arise for ten days or half a month.

Victory secured, hearing its final words posed no risk.

Noting Lin Yi's quietness, the Ram-Head Divine Envoy gave a wry smile briefly before collapsing heavily onto the ground.

Its movements seemed awkward and ungainly, akin to a faded elder, shedding the earlier haughty godly poise.

"I actually don’t have many cards left." Lin Yi finally responded, voice steady. "Being able to repel Calamity earlier was purely due to good luck."

At these words, the Ram-Head Divine Envoy shook its head in resignation.

"Perhaps. If I had held on a bit longer, been a bit more serious, maybe I wouldn’t have lost."

While saying this, it stretched out a sheep's hoof, extracting a translucent pale-golden crystal from its chest and offering it to Lin Yi.

"This is the material you need, the ’Heart of Earth’. Additionally, this is the culmination of my life’s work."

Even before its words ended, a soft golden radiance emerged from the Ram-Head Divine Envoy's form. Like liquid streams, that glow detached gradually, threading together before its chest and coalescing into a pill glowing faintly in gold.

Lin Yi's eyes tightened a fraction.

No explanation from the Ram-Head Divine Envoy was needed; he recognized the pill's immense worth.

Forged from a Divine Envoy's lifelong Divine Power, swallowing it would grant at least five or six tenths of a Condensing Pill Divine Envoy's might—a massive leap for Lin Yi.

"Are you asking me to spare you?" Lin Yi inquired gently.

The Ram-Head Divine Envoy denied with a head shake, its smile radiating unusual tranquility.

"Without my Divine Power, I am already exhausted. Without the balance of Divine Power, the Power of the Primordial in my body will make me explode. This, you understand better than I do."

Lin Yi stayed mute.

Via "Reincarnation Vision," he'd already discerned the Ram-Head Divine Envoy's condition long ago. Its claims held no deceit.

"I have no such intentions," the Ram-Head Divine Envoy went on, voice remarkably composed.

"I just want to help you. I have grown weary of this unfeeling Three Realms and Six Paths. Perhaps one day, you may truly break the rules set by the gods of the heavens, allowing us ants at the bottom to choose the meaning of our existence."

Lin Yi felt baffled; could one mere defeat in combat plunge a Divine Envoy into such profound despair?

Furthermore, he never could have dreamed that the deity, who had been howling for his life only moments before, would utter such words.

"Why are you helping me?" Lin Yi whispered, brimming with suspicion.

The Ram-Head Divine Envoy let out a chuckle, its grin laced with sorrow and resignation. "I have existed far too long, seen countless regulations and bindings. The clashes between gods, the toils of humans, amount to nothing but a perpetual loop. I used to think power meant everything, that sufficient might would let one seize their fate. Yet I was mistaken."

Its tone softened bit by bit, like it was dredging up ancient memories.

"Power fails to grant real liberty. Instead, it chains one tighter to restrictions. I'm weary of everything, weary of a existence ruled by edicts. And you, Lin Yi, could be the one to shatter them all."

Lin Yi stayed silent, extending his hand to grasp the ’Heart of Earth’ and the Divine Power Elixir.

The instant his fingers met the Divine Power Elixir, a cozy surge flowed through him, like myriad specks of light twirling in his hand. This was the purified core of the Ram-Head Divine Envoy’s entire might.

"Thanks."

The reasoning felt flimsy yet somewhat plausible. Besides, this elixir carried huge importance for Lin Yi right then.

Once the Divine Power Elixir slipped away, the Ram-Head Divine Envoy’s form started fading into translucence, on the verge of vanishing into thin air.

"Oh, one more thing I nearly forgot to mention. Another Divine Envoy arrived on Blue Star this time too. He didn’t intervene in my peril and just bolted instead. Be sure to deal with him on my behalf."

With those words spoken, the Ram-Head Divine Envoy’s silhouette fully dissolved, scattering as golden motes that blended into the ambient air.

Lin Yi remained rooted in place, his expression packed with shock.

Multiple Divine Envoys had invaded Blue Star?!

Unease promptly flooded Lin Yi’s mind.

Serving as minions to the heavenly gods’ authority, Divine Envoys constantly monitor the affairs across All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

Unraveling Xia’s arrangements, Lin Yi’s family setup, and potential dangers to him would pose no challenge.

Although Blue Star’s collective power has surged ahead, simplifying fights against outside foes compared to earlier times, facing off against a Divine Envoy using a mere War God’s strength remains almost hopeless.

With these thoughts racing, Lin Yi wasted no time and bolted straight out of the "Ancient Desolate Ridge" dungeon.

"Junior, you nearly frightened me to death!"

The moment he exited the dungeon, a gentle wave of fragrant warmth enveloped him.

Those soft whimpers left even Lin Yi feeling a touch awkward to listen to.
