There is no different?

Hello!

I have a quick question.

Is that sentence correct?

1. There is no different

2. There is no differently

I think 1 is correct, but not sure. If 1 is correct, is that mean 'no' is used as adjective in that sentence?

Thank you!

The adjective and the adverb don't work as a complement (or modifier) to the verb in the " there is " structure. You need a noun: There is no difference . She is no different.
