Arin on the other side was who was waiting for his chance looked at the water ball and smirked. As soon as he found that the water ball is about to hit Rick, he immediately took action. He quickly came near to Rick and immediately punched the Inner Will barrier which Rick casted around his body. He then disappeared from the scene.

But he felt something was wrong. Because the Inner Will barrier which Rick casted this time was very easy to break. It could be easily broke by a simple punch. It was as delicate as a gla.s.s.

As he was wondering, he looked at Rick's direction. He found that there was another Inner Will barrier around Rick's body.

This made Arin speechless. Because Rick already predicted this shameless action from Arin and intentionally casted a weak and fragile barrier. And as soon as he appeared, Arin shattered the fragile barrier and disappeared. And in the meanwhile, Rick casted a strong and st.u.r.dy Inner Will barrier once again. This time it was the strong one.

But Rick didn't care though. As soon as he recasted the strong inner Will barrier, the water ball clashed against it. Immediately the Inner Will barrier broke from the impact. But it also minimised the impact of the water ball.

The minimised water ball clashed against the wind barrier The Wind barrier broke and the might of the Water Ball further minimised. The minimised version of water ball finally hit Rick. But instead of dispersing, the water ball became a spear ball. And it pushed Rick in the middle of it.

Rick who was trapped inside the spherical water ball couldn't breath. Because the water forced him from taking breath. Rick held his breath and stood motionless. But he was excited inwardly. Because the more he was suffering from suffocation, he felt that his strength is increasing. He felt as if his Divine Power is rising in quant.i.ty.

After around five minutes of suffering, the water spherical ball disappeared. Rick took a huge breath. Immediately another water ball came from the sky and healed him completely.

As Arin thought that it was over, he heard the sound of the familiar thunderstorm once again. This was the signal for the tribulation for third element.

This made Arin stunned. If he was in the G.o.d Realm, then he would come under one of those rare people who has immunity with three natural elements. This was not a joke. This made him even more resolute to kill Rick. The more genius he was, the bigger threat he was for the a.s.sa.s.sin Organisation. He had to kill him at any cost.

He dashed forward and tried to hit Rick who seemed to be distracted. As soon as his reddish palm was about to hit his opponent, Rick suddenly turned back in a flash and caught his palm with his bare hands.

"Impossible!" , Arin shouted loudly in shock. No one even among his peers would dare to touch him when he was glowing with reddish aura. But Rick who was in the middle of the stage with no awakening and the first awakening actually caught his reddish palm with his bare hand. How could he not be shocked?

"Impossible?" , Rick smirked, " Why would you think that it is impossible? Don't forget that I am actually a dragon! And the defence of a dragon is always very tough. Do you think that your power will have any effect on me at this stage?"

Immediately after saying this, he immediately clenched his fist. The wind element of a dragon generated around his fists. But what stunned Arin the most is that he found a very thin transparent Dragon Scales on different random part of his body.

"AAAHHHH!!!"

Rick gave a loud shout. His aura rose vigorously. His s.h.i.+rt torn apart from his body. A blue colour wings generated from his back shoulder. The scales on his body which were transparent earlier became more and more visible. His nails turned into claws. His eyes turned gold in colour. He felt as if his senses became much more sensitive.

"So is this the pleasant surprise boss was talking about?" , Rick smiled inwardly in excitement. He never expected that the surprise would be for a human like him to actually turn into a real dragon. This was truly a pleasant surprise.

Dragons are mightiest creatures in the universe. There was no doubt about it. Be it in offence or defence, they were matchless. This was the reason why dragons could overpower a human.

With the new upgrade in his Divine Art, Rick was confident in taking Arin down. He engulfed his dragon's claws with the Wind Element and forced it against Arin's heart.

"No! Don't do it!" , Arin who sensed what Rick was doing immediately started to plead for mercy. But Rick didn't even bother to listen what Arin has to say. He punched Arin on his chest where a human's heart lies.

Immediately his claws pierced through Arin's chest and came out from other side of his body. Arin was stunned for a moment. He hated to accept this harsh reality. But he knew that his bitter journey has come to an end. He slowly closed his eyes and slept just like that permanently.

But the one who stunned the most is Rick himself. He knew that after formation of Dragon's Scales on his body, he will become strong. He was very confident in defeating Arin in short time possible. That's why he applied full power in that last punch.

But he never in his wildest dream ever imagined that he could kill Arin who caused him a lot of trouble that easily. His claws pierced through his opponent's chest as if a knife was cutting through a cake. This was totally out of his imagination.

"No wonder dragons are quoted to be the mightiest creatures in the universe!" , Rick thought, " Their offence and defence are the best!"

After a moment of rest, he resumed his heavenly tribulation. Even though he killed his opponent, he can't stop what he has started. The heavenly tribulation was not his friend where he can start or stop whenever he wants. Even though he started in the middle of the battle, he needs to overcome the tribulation.

So he stopped the solo celebration for his first victory and resumed his heavenly tribulation.

After around two hours, he overcame the tribulation for all the 10 natural elements and broke the barrier that was stopping him from reaching the first awakening. He finally stepped into the realm of first awakening.

He glanced at the dead body of Arin one final time and quietly left the place.
