Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

Having accomplished their mission, they departed abruptly.

The Dawu forces arrived aggressively and exercised their dominance, completely annihilating the populace of King He's City, then disappeared just as ruthlessly. They left behind nothing but wreckage and countless skeletons, a grim testament to the horrific scene they had enacted.

Countless people looked upon the still-warm skeletons scattered across the ground, a chill coursing through their feet.

Dawu was too dominant. They repelled all of King He's City's elite forces, numbering in the millions, effortlessly. Even the presence of two True Gods couldn't stop them, there was no mercy, they showed no respect to the Imperial Dynasty.

King He's City believed they were sublime and invincible with the backing of the Imperial Dynasty, so they tried to provoke Dawu and test out their strength for the Imperial Dynasty.

Their strength was indeed tested, but at a cost of complete annihilation, the scene was brutal and unbearable.

The emperor, still stationed in Dongyucheng City, was chillingly ruthless. Although he wasn't personally responsible for the killings, it was under his orders that they were carried out.

A single imperial decree, a simple command, millions were slaughtered in an instant.

This was the potent power of an emperor, with just one remark, he could create a holocaust, with another, he could send countless lives to their end.

The emperor's will is tantamount to the heavens.

"Dawu isn't to be trifled with, provoking them will undoubtedly invite calamity. Even the king of Hell is a safer foe than Dawu!"

Among the Five Mysterious Domains, several neutral forces who had been wavering nervously quivered.

Before there emerged a clear victor between Dawu and the Imperial Dynasty, they did not wish to pick sides. In the five-domains struggle, some had intended to ostracize the Dawu forces, but witnessing such a scene, they one after another abandoned such thoughts.

To obliterate a king's city forces was as simple for Dawu as sweeping fallen leaves in the breeze. It was as effortless as eradicating mere rubbish.

It was clear to everyone that Dawu had not exhausted their full strength, their most horrific moves were yet to come.

The Dawu Emperor was displaying his might, as a warning not to hastily pick sides. By keeping to themselves, they could live, but if they chose to align themselves, they may experience a similar fate.

The events that took place in Xuwang City and King He's City were frightful.

Xuanzhao and Xuanyu, the two True Gods, looked incredibly dismayed.

They had been alive for tens of thousands of years, but never had they ever felt so frustrated. They'd been tasked twice and stumbled twice, having never gained an upper hand against the Martial Emperor.

It wasn't that they didn't want to save King He's City earlier, it was Xue Eleven who stopped them, and the men in King He's City had been inept, and were obliterated too quickly.

"The Martial Emperor's power is even more terrifying than it was in the Artifact Refining City!"

Just now, a single voice command, even without a physical presence, had given them an overwhelming sense directly of the might and immovability of a mountain range.

"He has truly become a menace." XuanYu, the True God, remarked gravely: "If we can eradicate his elite forces in the five-domains struggle, like severing his arm. The red-clothed woman just now was terrifyingly powerful."

"We will discuss all this after the five-domains struggle concludes."

The two True Gods departed.

With the decimation of King He's City, the might of Dawu was once again displayed, and no force dared to provoke them again.

Although Chu Yuan's base was desolate and visited by no one, it had become a no-go area.

However, some had sent messages to Chu Yuan in secrecy, expressing they would not antagonize Dawu during the five-domains struggle and hoped Dawu would not target them when the time came.

Chu Yuan was satisfied with the effect. The shock tactic had worked and now it was time to wait for the five-domains struggle.

A few days passed.

A solemn bell chimed from within the five-domains city.

The sound signified the beginning of the five-domains struggle, a warning to all the forces to prepare for the ensuing battle.

"Dawu, prepare for battle." Chu Yuan commanded.

Boom! The sky warship flashed, its lights casting a rainbow. The soldiers boarded, ready to set off at any moment.

"Martial Emperor, every time before the start of the Five Domains struggle, all the forces gather." Luo Yueying said.

Luo Yueying, clad in her battle armor, exuded a daunting, fierce aura. She was a picture of majestic gallantry rivalling any man, her presence contrasting starkly from her previous demeanor. Her sight was pleasing to Chu Yuan's eyes.

"Alright, let's go take part in this gathering of major forces and see their expressions."

Chu Yuan nodded, attired in a black imperial robe, exerting strong authority and dominance, "King of Loyalty and Bravery will stay here for instant access to the battleground of the Five Domains. Commander Feng and Li Rong, you two will accompany me to the forthcoming gathering of powerhouses."

The gathering was organized in a garden, where many seats had been set with exquisite wine and dishes. Beautiful and extraordinary maidservants stood by to serve.

At this point, many people had arrived and seated themselves.

Some, who were on good terms, discussed the day's events.

"The Martial Emperor has arrived!"

A figure adorned in black imperial robes entered the garden, instantly silencing everyone in his presence. Eyes were fixated on Chu Yuan.

Even though the Martial Emperor was well-known, only a few people had actually seen him.

The reputation of the Martial Emperor reverberated like thunder. Witnessing him firsthand left the crowd thinking he was more akin to an infinite sky—an embodiment of grandeur and not a mere man.

This Martial Emperor was a ruthless figure—destroying Xuwang City, seizing Artifact Refining City, demolishing King He's City. His actions were intended to disrupt the existing balance of the Five Domains, proving he was adamant about opposing the Imperial Dynasty.

Now, he seemed calm. But everyone knew once he was provoked, the death toll could fill entire mountains.

As Chu Yuan walked, nobody dared to converse with him. They feared being mistaken as a member of the Dawu faction by the Imperial Dynasty.

"Let's sit here."

Chu Yuan arbitrarily chose a seat and sat down.

Luo Yueying also seated herself next to him.

Li Rong and Zhu Fengfeng stood behind Chu Yuan, surveying the scene with a cold demeanor.

"The competition for the Five Domains is about to begin. Before this, our Imperial Dynasty intends to organize a competition amongst all generals and potentially even amongst the kings."

After the arrival of all major forces, members of the Imperial Dynasty started making appearances. Three individuals emerged—a formidable middle-aged man dressed in red, alongside Xuanzhao and Xuanyu who were already present.

The middle-aged man had an extremely imposing appearance, with glowing red eyes that could see through everything. His gaze landed on Chu Yuan, aiming to discern his depths.

"He is Xuanzhen, a True God of the Imperial Dynasty, the King of the Imperial Border, and the right-hand man of the Imperial Monarch!"

"Such a terrifying aura. True God Xuanzhen has kept a low profile for at least five thousand years. His reappearance at this competition for the Five Domains is evidently to confront the Martial Emperor!"

"True God Xuanzhen has an incredibly strong combat ability. He has killed a True God—an extraterritorial True God at that, with his hands stained with the blood of a True God."

...

Many leaders of these forces looked gravely at True God Xuanzhen, including several True God powerhouses who were present. They understood that Xuanzhen was powerful and challenging to deal with.

"Third Level True God, or even Fourth Level."

Chu Yuan sensed True God Xuanzhen's aura—he was far stronger than Fire Phoenix Emperor and Ao Shiri.

In the True God Realm, each level was heaven and earth.

If True God Xuanzhen was at the fourth level, even ten Ao Shiris wouldn't stand a chance against him.

"During this grand competition, everyone can send someone to compete."

When True God Xuanzhen spoke, he cast a glance at Chu Yuan.

Indeed, his cultivation had reached the Fourth Level of a True God.

"True God Xuanzhen, are there any rules for this competition?" someone asked.

"No rules. The winner becomes the king, the loser the bandit. If you die, you can only blame yourself. After all, those who came here should be prepared for death."

True God Xuanzhen spoke.

"Is there any prize?" another person asked.

"Since it's a competition, there should be rewards. Without benefits, where's the fun? Whoever gains the first place in this competition will obtain this bottle of Divine Essence Fluid."

True God Xuanzhen took out a jade bottle.

Inside the bottle, a jade-like fluid was rippling brilliantly, emanating a refreshing fragrance. Just a whiff was enough to invigorate one's spirit.
