Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System Chapter 2010: Sacrifice to the Supreme

The scale of the Upper Realm is truly beyond comparison when measured against the Eternal Road.

Chu Yuan traversed the Upper Realm, a place where a limitless world was formed by the merging of countless fractured planes.

Vast continents drifted through the cosmos like gargantuan islands, many of them teeming with life.

Wherever civilization thrives, a martial world exists, weaving together endless tales of vengeance and devotion.

Everywhere he looked, Chu Yuan witnessed the unfolding of slaughter and conflict as residents of various planes clashed in relentless warfare.

The hostilities here were significantly more savage than those found on the Eternal Road; entire armies were composed of Origin Gods, and numerous Eternal experts fought with desperate ferocity.

"A realm defined by combat, a storm drenched in blood."

Chu Yuan watched these skirmishes with a cold, detached heart; to him, this was the ideal environment to forge his grand destiny.

The Eternal Divine Martial Empire had been tempered in the forge of war and tested through the trials of blood and fire.

It could be said that the empire did not merely endure war; rather, it thrived upon it and was intimately familiar with its rhythms.

"The Upper Realm is a far more expansive domain, where infinite beings engage in eternal struggle!"

Utilizing the strength of his divine will, he projected images of these Upper Realm conflicts back to his own empire.

Witnessing these scenes, the blood of the empire’s citizens began to boil with fervor as they found a new summit to climb. They hungered for battle and yearned for the fray, knowing that growth was only possible through the crucible of war.

Their only desire was to march out of the empire immediately, mobilize their legions, and become an unstoppable tide following their Emperor into glorious combat.

Naturally, all such movements were dependent upon the Emperor’s strategic commands.

The most vital change, however, was that they now possessed a clear objective.

Chu Yuan signaled his approval of the empire's progress; the soldiers were training with renewed intensity, and powerful masters were continuously emerging from the ranks.

As he explored the Upper Realm, he also channeled various ancient legacies back to his people.

He encountered numerous bizarre entities, many of which shared similarities with creatures he had faced on the Eternal Road.

This was to be expected.

Multiple Upper Realms combined to form a greater whole, yet within each one, smaller Upper Realms were manifested.

In essence, the Eternal Road served as a miniature reflection of the true Upper Realm.

"Even the Upper Realm possesses its boundaries."

Chu Yuan remarked with an indifferent tone.

The territory of the Upper Realm is not truly infinite. Though it is staggeringly vast and has limits, it can appear boundless to the observer.

This is because the Upper Realm is in a state of constant expansion, birthed from the potent mana of the Upper Realms.

An ocean as deep and blue as the Temporal Sea was formed by the convergence of the endless river of space and the flow of time; when Chu Yuan set foot upon these waters, a savage, gargantuan beast suddenly lunged at him.

This massive creature resembled a tiger shark of the deep, possessing blood-red eyes and rows of jagged, lethal teeth.

Detecting Chu Yuan’s aura, it lunged forward with murderous intent.

Chu Yuan’s gaze swept across the azure depths, noting that the sea was populated by many such predatory monsters.

This was the nature of the planes within the Upper Realms. While their wars created expansive worlds, they also tore them apart, leaving hidden dangers lurking in every corner.

Even so, Chu Yuan observed that the fundamental structure of the Upper Realms remained stable.

Of course, inhabiting the Upper Realms meant being under the constant surveillance of the Upper Realms themselves.

The strength of this tiger shark beast was on par with an Eternal Heavenly Sovereign—chaotic and violent—yet Chu Yuan merely extended a finger as it charged.

Radiant layers of eternal divine light erupted from his fingertip, instantly trapping the beast within a bubble where the sheer power of the world snuffed out its life.

The gap in their power was insurmountable, for Chu Yuan already commanded the spiritual will of the Upper Realms.

He swiftly moved past the ocean.

Boom!

At that moment, in a distant sector of the Upper Realm, two majestic auras surged toward the heavens as two figures manifested.

Clouds swirled and winds howled as they unleashed the devastating divine power of Eternal Kings—a rank that commanded the status of dukes and overlords in this realm.

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Their clashing energies radiated outward, turning the massive battlefield into a zone of destruction where layers of planes crumbled and inhabitants of smaller worlds were sucked into the vortex of death.

A confrontation between Eternal Kings was a spectacle of immense proportions.

"I shall end your life this day!"

A regal figure stood suspended in the firmament.

"Hahaha! You believe such meager power can slay me? You are a mere novice king, while I have reigned for billions of Upper Realm years; the chasm between us is vast!"

The other king let out a boisterous laugh.

"I will strike you down to pave my Dao."

Just as the two kings prepared for a lethal exchange, they suddenly froze.

In the far distance, a figure emerged as if stepping out of a mythical dimension; his peerless, unrivaled will caused the surrounding chaos to instantly fall silent.

Confronted by such an overwhelming presence...

They abandoned all thought of combat; they remained motionless, barely daring to breathe, terrified that this being might erase them with a casual wave of his hand.

Only after the figure had vanished into the distance did they finally find relief.

"Was that... could that have been an Upper Realm?"

The sheer grandeur of that presence surpassed heaven and earth, leaving them paralyzed. Only after he was gone did they find the courage to speak, wondering if an Upper Realm had manifested in human form.

"Likely not. It may have been a being on the verge of attaining Upper Realm status, but regardless, it is not someone mere kings like us should provoke."

The other king noted somberly.

"Do we proceed with our duel?"

"We shall settle this another time!"

The kings immediately halted their conflict. There was no point in continuing; if their struggle drew the attention of that heavenly emperor again, it would be an invitation to death.

"Throughout the Upper Realm, the fires of war burn everywhere."

Chu Yuan had seen countless skirmishes during his travels.

However, he had yet to see Eternal Emperors in combat, which suggested that such figures were rare even within the Upper Realm.

In short, the harshness of this environment was no place for the weak; their only hope for survival lay within the sheltered worlds crafted by an Upper Realm.

He pushed forward on his journey.

Suddenly, a powerful resonance reached him, warping the fabric of time and space. It was the concentrated will of a being far above an emperor—the will of an Upper Realm heaven.

Chu Yuan came to a stop.

He looked upon a massive plane filled with sprawling cities and teeming with countless souls, the most powerful of whom was an Eternal King.

Naturally.

This was not what had caught Chu Yuan’s eye.

"An Altar!"

Chu Yuan’s vision pierced through the dimensions, settling on an altar as massive as a star. It was ancient in hue and carved with intricate patterns that formed the shapes of humanoid beings.

These depictions looked incredibly vivid, as if they might step off the stone at any moment.

As waves of tremendous power descended, the figures on the altar began performing worldly martial arts, revealing the fundamental truths of the martial path.

Surrounding the altar, an enormous crowd moved in perfect synchronization, mimicking those divine movements.

Led by the Eternal King, a multitude of Eternal beings were fervently conducting sacrifices at the altar, presenting their tributes to a mysterious and ancient Great Existence.

"Sacrificial rites to the Upper Realm," Chu Yuan observed.
