Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System Chapter 11: Chapter 11: The Falling Star Bomb_1

Chu Yuan observed the three options manifesting before him. Rather than making a hasty choice, he accessed the system shop, recalling a specific item he had glimpsed while previously buying a Primary Healing Potion.

It didn't take long for him to locate it!

Star Core Bomb: A runic explosive forged from the remnants of a detonated celestial body. It possesses a devastating force capable of obliterating everything within a mile radius. Acquiring it requires a sacrifice of four hundred Destiny Points!

This single weapon had the potential to wipe out entire legions in the blink of an eye.

By Chu Yuan's calculations, the basin stretched roughly a mile and a half across. With the Star Core Bomb in hand, he thought, hmph!

After spending the four hundred Destiny Points, his current balance plummeted back to zero.

In an instant, a dark sphere materialized in his palm. Though it was small enough to be gripped like a hand grenade and emitted a scorching heat, it possessed a surprising heft, weighing nearly a hundred pounds.

Considering a Primary Healing Potion for wounds below the Divine Realm cost a mere hundred Destiny Points, this lone bomb was four times as expensive. It was truly a premium expenditure.

Stepping forward, he executed a series of fluid movements, descending into the hollow like a massive bird unfurling its wings. As his sight sharpened, he realized these were no mere bandits, but a highly disciplined military force.

"Ding! You have selected option three. You have been rewarded with one hundred Destiny Points, bringing your total balance to one hundred points."

"An intruder has breached the perimeter!"

"Who has the audacity to invade our camp? Where are the sentries? Why was no warning given?"

"Could this be an operative from the Dawu Court?"

"Kill him! Kill! Kill! Eliminate anyone who dares to infiltrate our grounds!"

....

Chu Yuan's sudden arrival was akin to tossing a block of ice into a vat of searing oil, sparking immediate pandemonium. Thousands of furious soldiers emerged from the tents, brandishing weapons as they swarmed to encircle the trespasser.

"Who are you?"

A burly man clad in crimson armor interrogated him. His piercing gaze scanned Chu Yuan’s features, trying to deduce the identity of the bold youth.

"Chu Yuan."

His voice rang out with authority. Chu Yuan answered with total indifference, though a heavy pressure radiated from him across the clearing.

"Chu Yuan!"

The mention of his name ignited a firestorm of whispers. A figure suddenly ascended into the air, hovering before Chu Yuan. Staring with sheer amazement, he shouted, "The Second Emperor of Dawu! You actually dared to leave the safety of the Royal Palace!"

This man was a master of the Divine Realm, specifically at the first level. Such strength, even within the prestigious God-Martial Troops, was sufficient to hold the rank of a junior general in command of thousands.

"I am indeed the Emperor of Dawu!"

As Chu Yuan spoke, the majestic aura of a Supreme God erupted from his body. He remarked coldly: "Jiang Ying, the esteemed general serving under King Wei Wu. It seems these 'bandits' were merely a smokescreen, and my thousand imperial guards perished at your hands. Are you mobilizing troops here, plotting to rebel and seize the Imperial City while chaos reigns?"

"I didn't expect the emperor to recognize me."

Jiang Ying let out a sharp laugh: "It is quite impressive that the emperor has unraveled our entire strategy."

King Wei Wu was undoubtedly the most formidable of the eighteen Lords of the Dawu Kingdom. He not only commanded a massive, battle-hardened army but was also a peak cultivator at the tenth level of the Divine Realm.

Chu Yuan recognized Jiang Ying because his memories revealed that this general had served as the vanguard when King Wei Wu eventually laid siege to the capital.

"Hahaha, how bold of the emperor to venture into the Southern Mountain without a single bodyguard!"

Jiang Ying's excitement was palpable: "King Wei Wu’s original intent was to slip into the Imperial City and seize the emperor once the four nations launched their joint assault. I never imagined you, the emperor, would deliver yourself directly to me. It appears this magnificent achievement will be mine alone!"

"Are you certain you can handle such a task?" Chu Yuan asked with a sneer.

"General, I have never tested myself against the Emperor of Dawu. Permit me to gauge his strength."

A muscular warrior, radiating the power of the Original Spirit Realm, stepped out with a savage grin.

[Choice 1: Slay everyone. Failing to kill even a single person results in defeat. Reward: one hundred Destiny Points.]

[Choice 2: Reveal yourself and retreat. Facing such overwhelming numbers alone is impossible. Award: one hundred Destiny Points and one Escape Talisman that grants double speed for one hour.]

Glancing at the brawny warrior, Chu Yuan beckoned him with a single finger. "Step forward."

"Hmph! The Emperor of Dawu is nothing more than a fifteen-year-old child!"

The man’s words were barely out of his mouth when he lunged at Chu Yuan. He swung two massive hammers, each as heavy as Mount Tai, launching a devastating strike.

"Do not kill him. Keep him alive. I intend to present him to King Wei Wu."

The moment Jiang Ying finished his command, his expression twisted in horror.

The second the warrior reached Chu Yuan, a hand clamped down on his skull. With a sickening crack, his neck was snapped, and his body collapsed into a lifeless heap on the ground.

"He's dead!" Jiang Ying cried out, stunned. "How is this possible? King Wei Wu claimed Chu Yuan was only at the Meridian Passage Stage! Even with the royal family's secret techniques for Soul Forging, he shouldn't be this powerful!"

"Your information is obsolete," Chu Yuan stated calmly.

"Encircle him! Do not let Dawu's second emperor escape! If we take him alive, there will be no heir to the throne. The day we establish our new dynasty is at hand! We shall all be the founding dragons of this era; our titles as Lords and Generals are within reach!"

Jiang Ying bellowed his orders. If they could capture the heart of the Dawu Kingdom, he would become a founding father of the new regime, securing eternal prestige!

Instantly, a force of three thousand soldiers surged from the camp, locking Chu Yuan in a tight circle.

"Allow me to send you all to the heavens!"

Watching the soldiers close in until they were packed within a half-mile radius, a faint smirk played on Chu Yuan's lips.

With a flick of his wrist, sparks ignited as a metallic ball smaller than a fist dropped to the earth. A haze of purple smoke began to swirl around his feet.

Under Chu Yuan's mental command, the Star Core Bomb detonated without a moment's delay. A deluge of sparks erupted like a plague of locusts, filling the air with terrifying brilliance.

The instant the Star Core Bomb blew, a shockwave rippled outward, tearing through everything for miles.

"Aaaaaaaaah!"

The army was completely blindsided. All three thousand soldiers were caught in the blast. They had no time to process the danger, let alone flee. In the wake of a Star Core Bomb, even a millisecond of hesitation meant death.

The atmosphere was suddenly choked with blood, gore, and severed limbs!

In a heartbeat, the surrounding miles were transformed into a gruesome Asura Field.

Out of the three thousand men, only a dozen or so remained standing—all of them powerful experts at or above the Original Spirit Realm.

The rest—those still in the Meridian Passage or Soul Forging stages—had been reduced to dust. The cataclysmic force was far beyond their ability to endure. Not a single intact corpse could be found.

"Such is the might of a Star Core Bomb!"

While Chu Yuan maintained a stoic facade, he was privately stunned by the carnage.

Though the bomb struggled to kill those at the Original Spirit Realm, its area-of-effect destruction was breathtaking. If he possessed a dozen such bombs, he could wipe out any standard army within a massive territory. Even a force of a million would be decimated.
