Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System Chapter 2036: Yanran’s Support

It was true.

Forged by the King of Heaven himself, the mudstone slab was a vessel for his profound wisdom.

Because of this, it remained indestructible on the Eternal Road, surviving even through the cycles of multiple great extinctions.

"The Heavenly Tablet is a Supreme Divine Artifact from endless ages past. The King of Heaven used his own wisdom to engrave it, inscribing many heavenly laws upon its surface. During that era, countless living beings sought to meditate on the Heavenly Tablet to discover their own path to heaven," Yanran explained.

She continued, "However, the tablet was shattered during the great wars. Some fragments were gathered by the heavens, while others were lost, scattered across the vast lands."

With a casual flick of her wrist, she manifested a massive illusion of the Heavenly Tablet. It was a majestic sight, shrouded in swirling mists of energy, with lines of complex rules manifesting as heavenly characters.

Yet, within the cycling images of the past, Chu Yuan witnessed various divine beings striking and shattering this ancient monument.

"What a tragic waste."

Chu Yuan shook his head slowly; a Heavenly Tablet containing the infinite wisdom of the King of Heaven had been destroyed in such a manner.

This act highlighted the selfless nature of the King of Heaven. He had generously shared his personal insights, hoping that other divine beings would leave their own laws upon it so that future generations could study them and gain experience.

He possessed a selfless heart, but others were not so noble.

"Chu Yuan, you are now aware of why the Heavenly War broke out. What are your feelings on this?"

Yanran turned her gaze toward him.

"I have no other thoughts; it was simply a war fueled by conflicting goals. I also wish to discover if the creation of the heavenly realm is truly infinite or if it has a limit. The purpose of the King of Heaven is now my purpose as well."

Chu Yuan’s resolve was unshakable.

"Good. You carry the ideals of the King of Heaven," Yanran remarked.

"Yanran, you are mistaken. While our goals may align, the King of Heaven was too much of an idealist. His visions were too difficult to realize and were ultimately doomed to fail. Without slaughter and without war, peace cannot exist. Whether on the Eternal Road or within the heavenly realm, regardless of one's status or strength, all paths eventually converge into the same conflict. In the end, it is all for oneself," Chu Yuan stated firmly.

From small worlds to large worlds, no matter how the enemies differ or how the battles are fought, the core nature of conflict never changes.

If a person does not wipe out all opposition, how can they hope to create infinite worlds?

"The path of war dictates that only through war can results be achieved. In the face of absolute power, words are meaningless. When my will reigns over the heavens and I maintain my peak state, everything shall bend to my desires," Chu Yuan declared.

He then added a final sentence.

"Strength dictates all."

"Strength dictates all..."

Yanran murmured softly, "Indeed, strength can dictate everything."

She looked at Chu Yuan intently.

Even though Chu Yuan had not yet reached divine status, he spoke such audacious words. He intended to use raw power and conquest to dominate the entire heavenly realm.

Yet, there was an undeniable charisma surrounding him. He had repeatedly performed impossible miracles, forcing others to believe in his potential.

His current power was indeed formidable; even the strongest warriors found themselves unable to suppress him.

This was the mindset of one who is invincible.

"I can offer you my support," Yanran said suddenly.

"Oh? Yanran, you wish to back me?" Chu Yuan asked.

"I will support you. If the current state of the heavenly realm continues as it is, with endless fighting, the fundamental situation will never change. As I said before, my only wish is to see if the creation of the heavenly realm is infinite or if it reaches a boundary. That is why I once stood with the King of Heaven. I am weary of this never-ending internal strife," Yanran explained.

She had no interest in petty disputes.

"So, that is the reason for your support," Chu Yuan replied.

"Currently, even though the various worlds of the heavens are at war, the overall pattern remains static. No one has the power to break this deadlock. You may not be of the heavens yet, but I have watched you ascend this path step by step. Only by forging a new path through your imperial way can the impossible be achieved and this stalemate be ended."

A peculiar light flickered in Yanran’s eyes.

She found Chu Yuan to be a very unique individual.

His burning ambition proved he was not someone who would settle for things as they were; he possessed the sheer guts to trigger a massive upheaval in the heavenly realm.

"I shall use the power of the empire to sweep across everything, ensuring there is only one voice in the heavenly realm."

Chu Yuan’s aura surged outward.

Yanran had made her position clear; she would stand by his side and assist him in his conquest of the heavens.

"Very well. Since you possess such ambition and spirit, I shall support you. I hope to shatter the current status quo, but any strategy or conquest requires you to first become of the heavens. Once you reach that stage, your strength will surpass that of either a warrior or thunder," Yanran noted.

It was true; without reaching the level of the heavens, everything was merely a dream. However, Yanran could see that there were no obstacles preventing Chu Yuan from achieving divine status.

"You are right, Yanran. I must first become of the heavens. Only with divine status will I have the necessary power to implement my plans."

Chu Yuan nodded in agreement.

"Your empire is currently within the Heavenly Tomb, consuming all worlds. The Heavenly Tomb houses the celestial corpses of fallen divine beings. However, by devouring these remains, you will inherit their lingering grievances, which will surely explode during your moment of ascension," Yanran warned. "Furthermore, the environment in the Heavenly Tomb is treacherous; besides the corpses, there are other dangers to contend with."

"That is a minor concern. If I could not handle such a thing, I would have no right to speak of grander designs. I have absolute faith in my success," Chu Yuan replied.

Yanran nodded; it was precisely this level of ambition that led her to choose him. She disliked the current state of the world; the only solution was to tear it down.

"There are no bottlenecks for me to achieve divine status. My only limitation is the need to elevate my nation, allowing the Eternal Kingdom to ascend into the divine realms. To accomplish this, a staggering amount of energy is required. I am currently using every possible method to gather this power, including the consumption of the Heavenly Tomb and Supreme Divine Stones."

Chu Yuan laid out his current situation.

"Devouring everything to elevate a nation—using plunder to accumulate energy is indeed the most efficient and direct path. If one has the willpower to suppress the consequences, then plundering is the way."

Yanran approved of Chu Yuan’s ruthless strategy.

Worrying about a weak foundation was for the cowardly; those with true power ignored such trifles.

The path of plunder meant seizing everything from others to fuel one's own rise.

"Chu Yuan, although the Heavenly Tomb is filled with many divine corpses, their inner worlds are ruined and their souls have vanished. They are merely powerful husks, lacking the true essence of a living divine being. Their value is significantly lower compared to the real thing," Yanran continued.

"Unless it is a true divine being," Chu Yuan said, his sharp eyes locking onto Yanran.

"A true divine being is the heavens themselves. A destroyed realm cannot compare to a living one. Only a living divine being controls a vast world; divine stones are just minor treasures in comparison."

As one of the heavens herself, Yanran understood this better than anyone.

"The swiftest path is for us to join forces, hunt down a few true divine beings, and sacrifice them to your Eternal Kingdom. Only the essence of true divine beings can trigger a transformation in your Eternal Kingdom in the shortest possible time!"
