Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System Chapter 2034: The Truth of the Battle of the Celestials

"Reincarnation Heaven!"

Wu launched the most formidable martial arts known to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Each of his strikes possessed the power to forge new worlds and cleave through the fabric of eternity.

However, as his fist collided with the gate of reincarnation, the peculiar energy of that realm distorted his martial might.

"The power of reincarnation!"

As Reincarnation Heaven and the enigmatic Heavenly Emperor made their exit, both Wu and Lei watched them go, falling into a state of profound reflection.

"I never imagined that Reincarnation Heaven still walked this world. My assumption was that she had fallen alongside the Celestial King during the great Heavenly Battle. That power of reincarnation is truly as bizarre and cryptic as they say."

This was the Martial Dao.

He was a master of the direct approach, utilizing sheer strength to crush all opposition.

He was well aware that in a simple contest of force, Reincarnation Heaven could not hope to rival him; yet, the elusive nature of her reincarnation Dao was something he could not grasp.

Reincarnation Heaven stood as one of the premier Supreme Heavens.

"It does not shock me," Lei remarked. "The essence of reincarnation is woven into the heavens themselves. With the reincarnation of the heavens active, her manifestation is clearly for the sake of that mysterious Heavenly Emperor. He must share a deep bond with Reincarnation Heaven. Furthermore, back in the old days, she never stood on the same side as us."

Even though Lei and Wu were fierce rivals, they had been allies during the rebellion to topple the Celestial King.

The return of reincarnation, embodied by someone outside their faction, naturally forced them to be wary.

"So what if Reincarnation Heaven has returned? The era of the Celestial King is long gone!"

Wu radiated an aura of absolute dominance over the heavens. "Can that reincarnation truly flip the heavens upside down? There can only be one Celestial King for all eternity; he was the primary supreme, and his passing was final!"

Years ago, a coalition of many powerful Supreme Heavens had to unite and pay a staggering price just to bring down the Celestial King.

With the Celestial King gone, they all breathed easier, liberated from his overwhelming weight and restrictions.

"Reincarnation alone cannot overturn the heavens," Lei’s voice boomed like thunder.

"Life without the Celestial King is far better for us. Tell me, Lei, do you truly wish to return to the age when he ruled?" Wu questioned.

"Hardly anyone yearns for the Celestial King; his demise was the ultimate gift. The conflict between us must also be paused for the time being."

Lei’s physical form blurred, transforming into a massive storm of lightning before vanishing entirely.

Initially, Lei had intended to force Chu Yuan into submission, but after seeing his ties to Reincarnation Heaven, he realized such an outcome was no longer feasible.

"Yanran, since your return to the Heaven Realm, you have reclaimed your status as a Supreme. This is your genuine strength—the very peak of a Supreme. Even Lei and Wu are powerless against you now."

At that moment, Chu Yuan and the divine woman Yanran had already departed from the Heavenly Battlefield, strolling together through the empty void.

Despite being aware of Yanran’s true identity and her terrifying capabilities, Chu Yuan continued to call her Yanran out of habit, rather than addressing her as Reincarnation Heaven.

In the same way, the divine woman Yanran frequently addressed him simply as Chu Yuan.

"I have merely regained the level of a Supreme. I suffered grievous wounds during the Heavenly Battle, but because the heavens themselves reincarnate, I can manifest across all planes. Wherever reincarnation exists, I exist. Lei and Wu’s attacks are fierce, but they cannot truly harm me while I wield this power."

The divine woman Yanran spoke with an air of profound serenity.

This was her majestic presence—an existence that could not be extinguished even by the fires of the Heavenly Battle.

"Wu and Lei are truly among the highest tier of Supreme Heavens," Chu Yuan noted.

"Those two are indeed exceptional. They were the primary leaders behind the Celestial King's fall, and they managed to seize a portion of his power for themselves."

The divine woman Yanran gave a slight nod.

She turned her gaze toward Chu Yuan.

She had known him for a long time, witnessing his steady rise to his current level of cultivation.

Though he was a newcomer to the Heaven Realm, his power was already at the summit of the Supreme level. He was peerless within the emperor realm and held two Supreme Divine Artifacts; even Wu could not end him in a single encounter.

She was certain of it.

Even without her help, he possessed the capability to escape on his own.

"Seizing the power of the Celestial King..."

Chu Yuan grew quiet, reflecting on those words. After a long pause, he said, "Yanran, your memories have fully returned. Meeting here in the Heaven’s Domain, you must have things to tell me. The truth of the Heavenly Battle remains a mystery to me."

"Chu Yuan, you have spent some time in these heavens. In your opinion, what caused the Heavenly Battle to begin?"

The divine woman Yanran posed the question back to him.

"I wasn't there to witness the Heavenly Battle myself. Everything I've heard is just rumors and stories. Much of the truth has likely been buried or twisted, so I can't believe everything, but I can't ignore it all either," Chu Yuan answered her.

"The story goes that the Celestial King defied the natural order, attempting to build his own Heavenly Divine Dynasty and wiping out any Supremes who stood in his way. To submit to him was to become a servant, allowing him to rule as the eternal, sole voice of heaven and earth. Driven by desperation, many Supremes joined forces to start the Heavenly Battle, sacrificing much to bring him down."

Chu Yuan added, "At least, that is the version I was told."

"And how much of that do you actually trust?" Yanran asked.

"The battle was real, and the cost for the Supremes was definitely high. The Celestial King was defeated, but the actual reasons for starting such a war seem suspicious to me."

Chu Yuan looked at her intently.

He sensed that the veil surrounding the secrets of the Heavenly Battle was finally about to be lifted.

"During that era, the Heavenly Battle was fought between two sides. I belonged to the Celestial King’s faction. On the other side were the ancient top Supremes of God, demon, monster, hell, thunder, and martial arts, all united to destroy him."

Yanran explained.

"A clash of two massive factions that led to the deaths of many Supremes," Chu Yuan remarked. "If I had to guess, the Celestial King’s side had fewer numbers, but they were incredibly fierce because of his individual strength."

"The Celestial King was the mightiest Supreme; no one could stand against him alone. But even the strongest cannot fight everyone at once. His vision was grand and beautiful, yet it stood in direct opposition to the goals of the other Supremes. When they all laid siege to him, he finally fell. In his final moments, he used what remained of his power to open up an even greater world."

As she spoke, her reincarnation power seemed to flicker, illustrating the sheer scale of that ancient war.

"So the Celestial King had his own ideals. The Heavenly Battle was essentially a war over conflicting paths and beliefs."

Chu Yuan remained silent as the weight of history settled on him.

He continued, "I think I understand now. The Celestial King had his vision, but the other Supremes had their own worlds and goals to protect. These paths couldn't coexist, so killing the Celestial King was the only way for them to thrive. With him dead, the survivors reaped massive rewards."

"You must realize that the Celestial King was the very first Supreme. The others only rose to that level later, and the Celestial King actually helped many of them achieve their Supreme status."

The divine woman Yanran concluded, "It was an inevitable conflict. The other Supremes refused to accept his vision, but he certainly wasn't trying to destroy nature or wipe out the other Supremes."
