Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System Chapter 2023: Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor
Previously on Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System...
The genuine might of a Heavenly Emperor!
The Eternal Emperor, a figure wielding dominion over a specific domain, stands as an emperor and paramount overlord within the mortal realm.
As for those traversing the heavens, that designation does not apply.
This is because individuals within the heavens have transcended worldly limitations, no longer bound by earthly constraints.
Within the celestial realm, the imperial domain already signifies the absolute highest echelon, possessing considerable authority in decision-making.
After all, those in the heavens are exalted and detached from worldly affairs, rarely intervening, even in the slaying of a Heavenly Emperor from this world.
They view life as inconsequential unless directly provoked.
Consequently, the most paramount conflict within the celestial realm is the battle of the imperial domain, whereas a war among the heavens represents a confrontation transcending the mortal world.
Now, formidable figures from the martial world, brimming with murderous intent, have arrived to hold Chu Yuan accountable.
This constitutes a form of dignity for a powerful force within the celestial realm; the loss of the celestial stone is trivial.
The crucial aspect is that Chu Yuan assassinated their king.
The optimal method to preserve dignity is to eliminate all who dare challenge them.
"Heavenly Emperor, he must be the one who killed our martial world's king. He even remains here. I detect the aura of the heavens on him. He’s refining the celestial stone!"
"Arrogant, truly arrogant, he shows utter disregard for our martial world. Even if he belongs to the imperial realm, he cannot exhibit such arrogance!"
Seven kings encircled a single individual, their expressions exceedingly severe.
"You are exceedingly arrogant. You murdered individuals from the mighty martial world and yet did not depart. Remaining here, you too should be of the imperial realm, but even within the imperial realm, you remain insignificant before my martial world."
A towering and robust Heavenly Emperor stepped forward.
His countenance was resolute, like unyielding stone, a Martial Arts Grandmaster, a deity of martial arts, his eyes emitting an intense divine radiance, scrutinizing Chu Yuan from head to toe, attempting to discern his essence.
However, Chu Yuan exuded a supreme majesty that even he could not penetrate.
Yet, the more this was the case, the more intense the fighting spirit of this Heavenly Emperor became, with a blazing fire of true martial arts surging, ascending into the heavens, piercing through vast time and space.
"State your name, I am the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor!"
This Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor declared his name, acknowledging the individual's strength, deeming him worthy of serious consideration.
Those who accompanied him were the Xuanwu Seven Monarchs, all belonging to a single lineage within the martial world, having once achieved glorious feats; the seven of them together once repelled a Heavenly Emperor.
Surviving and repelling from the imperial realm are two fundamentally distinct concepts.
Experts in the martial world are numerous, with many imperial realms under their command, each forming a unique lineage.
Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor’s 'Xuanwu' does not refer to the mythical beast Xuanwu, but rather symbolizes profound and enigmatic martial arts.
This Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor, within the imperial realm category, is by no means weak.
"A mere minor Heavenly Emperor."
Chu Yuan’s fierce gaze settled upon the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor; his presence was dominant, standing there, he embodied the sky, imparting an overwhelming sensation of invincibility.
"What arrogance, Your Excellency, this individual is excessively arrogant, there is no need for you to act, we Xuanwu Seven Monarchs can strike simultaneously, and we can repel him. Does he believe that merely being in the imperial realm grants him the right to be arrogant?"
The Xuanwu Seven Monarchs stated, incensed.
"This individual differs from ordinary Heavenly Emperors; leave him for me to handle."
Individuals in the martial world are inherently combative; those capable of cultivating to a Heavenly Emperor have endured countless battles, fearing no adversary.
The Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor’s imperial body trembled, unleashing an boundless aura.
He also perceived that Chu Yuan possessed an unmatched demeanor, yet still craved a confrontation!
[Option 1: Depart the Heavenly Battlefield, acquire five million Destiny Points, randomly receive an Eternal Imperial Weapon x1.]
[Option 2: Slay the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor, acquire five million Destiny Points, thirty Celestial Stones.]
The System's choice was issued.
Provided he slays the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor, he can obtain as many as thirty Celestial Stones, which would cost at least 150 billion Destiny Points to exchange.
The System has been with him for so many years, acutely aware of his decision-making tendencies.
If he were to leave now, there would assuredly be no subsequent choices, and he would not acquire so many Celestial Stones.
Furthermore, although he has slain numerous kings, he has not yet slain an individual from the imperial realm.
Very well, since this Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor dares to provoke him, Chu Yuan will demonstrate his capabilities.
The imperial realm remains insignificant before him; only the heavens can present a true challenge.
"I offer you an opportunity."
Chu Yuan’s calm tone was the greatest provocation to the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor’s ears.
Having battled throughout his entire life, the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor immediately radiated imperial prestige, revealing the supreme dignity of unparalleled martial arts; every fragment of his aura possessed the most potent power in the heavens.
The strongest of the heavens, yet only confined within the heavens.
"Allow this Emperor to witness your strength!"
The Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor’s martial divine fist, each strike possessed the domineering force to cleave the firmament, controlling the world, advancing, in lofty and triumphant glory, directly before Chu Yuan.
As an Eternal Emperor, he could not compare to Chu Yuan.
"What kind of being is the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor? He is the pride of our martial world, even among the imperial realm, he is an absolute powerhouse, surpassed only by a few martial gods who have existed since the inception of our martial world."
"Indeed, Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor is an unparalleled existence; even an ancient relic at the peak of the imperial realm in the Thunder Realm cannot kill him!"
"He’s doomed; the Heavenly Emperor’s action is certain to kill, there is no other possibility!"
"This is the consequence of provoking our martial world; how can he act so recklessly!"
"The Heavenly Emperor is slaying one powerhouse after another, to become the Supreme Heavenly Emperor, the strongest Heavenly Emperor!"
The Xuanwu Seven Monarchs, observing the eruption of the imperial realm battle, each harbored strong pride and confidence, nurtured within a powerful celestial realm.
Confronting the opponent’s assault, Chu Yuan raised a palm.
Clang! With a violent reverberation, the instant Chu Yuan’s hand collided with the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor, the entire body of the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor shuddered, and the true essence of martial arts was torn asunder.
He delivered another punch, but Chu Yuan merely lifted his palm slightly.
An endless storm, before the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor could draw near, he was instantly repelled.
Surprise registered in his eyes; the individual's strength caused even his adept offensive tactics to falter, yet he also sensed that it wasn't merely brute force.
"You are formidable, but the stronger you are, the more it ignites my fighting spirit. A martial artist can only reach the pinnacle by defeating opponents one by one; cultivation behind closed doors cannot forge martial arts!"
The fighting spirit of the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor was exceptionally intense.
His entire being ignited with battle flames, delivering a punch with martial fire entwined around his arm, intensely boiling; the power capable of incinerating everything.
A colossal martial deity demonstrated mysterious martial arts.
The divine abilities of martial arts launched a potent offensive against Chu Yuan; even a Heavenly Emperor would retreat before his might.
But in Chu Yuan’s estimation, no matter how enigmatic the power, it would be obliterated by absolute force.
He cast his gaze, the will of the Emperor permeating the world, with a fist reaching the heavens, piercing forth with an incomparably divine radiance, colliding with the divine light demonstrating martial arts.
The mysterious martial arts of the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor were instantly shattered, unable to persist.
Chu Yuan looked down upon the Xuanwu Heavenly Emperor, seemingly somewhat disappointed by his prowess.
