Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System Chapter 2071: 2071: Drawing In Allies

The Blood of the Heavens has been offered as a sacrifice.

His world-shaking Cultivation was entirely bestowed upon Chu Yuan, and every ounce of the power he relinquished was funneled into the empire, forging a strength even more profound.

While Chu Yuan must forge the world through his own will, this stolen power could propel the empire to its absolute zenith, stabilizing its foundations.

Chu Yuan felt a massive surge in his own capabilities with every celestial being he devoured.

The essence of the Blood of the Heavens served as an incomparable supplement; it was so vast that he felt his own power bypass the need for billions of years of arduous Cultivation.

Truly, the most efficient path of Cultivation is the consumption of celestial beings, plundering the entirety of their strength for oneself.

Chu Yuan existed in a unique state, aiming to become the supreme heavenly being—the very heaven that reigns above all other celestials.

This is the true rank of a celestial sovereign, a position where every heaven must bow to his decrees.

Within the borders of the empire.

In an eternal instant, the passage of time felt both fleeting and endless.

Following the sacrifice of the Blood of the Heavens, the resulting energy allowed the empire’s powerhouses—such as Tumeng, Immortal, Universe, and the Poison Ancestor, all famous figures on the eternal path—to finally reach the eternal emperor realm.

Furthermore, a vast multitude of monarchs achieved their own breakthroughs.

Consider the nobility of a celestial being; if such a being is completely refined, the resulting boost is nearly impossible to calculate.

“This is the true power of the Blood of the Heavens!”

Hulu, a prominent expert within the empire, also reaped massive rewards. The celestial power was infused into him, triggering a monumental transformation.

He understood that if the Emperor continued this path of slaughter, there was a high probability he could become a celestial himself.

“Chu Yuan has successfully slain the Blood of the Heavens.”

Yanran looked toward the Celestial Realm. The Blood Domain had been wiped away, the curtain had closed on that era, and the fires of a new war had been lit.

At that same moment, Chu Yuan made his return to the empire.

Boom!

The Celestial Realm trembled violently at this instant, reeling from the immense impact.

In a mere blink of eye, three celestial beings had perished one after another. Such a rate of death was unheard of outside the era of great celestial wars.

And every single one of these falls was connected to a single man.

The Blood of the Heavens was no minor celestial; his demise sent even greater shockwaves through the world.

“The Blood of the Heavens has been struck down! It was the Divine Martial Emperor, that newly risen celestial, who ended him!”

“A new celestial possesses the strength to kill the Blood of the Heavens? Just how terrifying is he? It isn't that the Blood of the Heavens was weak, but that his power is simply too overwhelming!”

“What is his ultimate goal?”

The divine wills of various celestials clashed in the void.

The Celestial Realm had lost its peace. Chu Yuan’s deeds shattered a deadlock that had lasted for eons, as an invincible figure showcased his dominance and overbearing ambition.

“He kills celestials to sacrifice them. With every one he slays, his strength multiplies. If he continues, by the time he has killed all the celestials, his power will reach an unmatched summit!”

As they speculated on his motives, the celestials grew restless. Someone was attempting to consume all the heavens and establish a total dominion.

His resolve was even more cold-blooded than that of the King of Celestials.

In truth, what celestial has not dreamed of swallowing all the heavens? However, reality dictated that anyone who tried would be hunted by all the others. No one could survive that cost.

Yet now, someone had the audacity to try.

“Does he believe he is the King of Celestials, invincible among the heavens? Even the King of Celestials was toppled by our combined strength. His current path will lead only to his destruction!”

“The fact that he could slay the Blood of the Heavens proves his strength is exceptionally high.”

Even though many celestials now recognize Chu Yuan’s hunger for power, each celestial is an isolated power. Given his strength, they cannot immediately coordinate a unified response.

But one thing was certain: the name of the Divine Martial Emperor was burned into the minds of every celestial.

“Now that the Blood of the Heavens is dead, I will be targeted by all celestials. Some may already be plotting the destruction of my heaven, but I will not stop my advance.”

Chu Yuan announced this upon his return to the empire.

“The minds of the celestials are in conflict, Chu Yuan. They won't permit the rise of another figure like the King of Celestials and will surely take action.”

Yanran spoke.

Killing the Blood of the Heavens had indeed stirred a massive hornet’s nest.

“I am aware,” Chu Yuan replied with indifference. “Yanran, but this is a necessary step, is it not?”

“It is. Divinity, demons, monsters, hell, evil, law, martial, thunder, light, primordial, and the rest... though they disagree with one another, that is only a relative state. Once a common threat appears, they will unite to strike the Divine Martial Empire. Celestials are the heavens themselves; if they fall, they vanish like smoke.”

Yanran continued: “They haven't moved yet because the combined power of you and I is too formidable, making them extremely cautious. But this hesitation won't last forever.”

“I see everything clearly, and I have noticed something else as well.”

Chu Yuan reflected for a moment before saying: “In reality, the peak celestials are also tired of the status quo. They won't move against me immediately as I break this deadlock; instead, they have their own agendas.”

“I understand. Everyone wants to absorb other celestials to grow stronger. In the current Celestial Realm, celestials are the highest tier of existence, but it has been stagnant. Anyone who tried to rise was ganged up on. But you, Chu Yuan, have shattered that stalemate and muddied the waters.”

Chu Yuan and Yanran were both incredibly perceptive; they saw the truth of the situation.

Despite Chu Yuan's shocking feats, the top-tier celestials were all harboring their own schemes.

They plan to let Chu Yuan become the primary target so that when war erupts, every attack is directed at him. Then, they will make their move to devour the ordinary and powerful celestials in the chaos.

They used to fear that anyone attempting this would be besieged.

Now that a figure like Chu Yuan has appeared, those old rules no longer apply.

“Yanran, I see it. It is highly likely the situation will evolve this way.”

Chu Yuan went on: “Once I spark the flames of war in the Celestial Realm, the ancient, powerful celestials will use the opportunity to expand, swallowing the weaker heavens. Eventually, only a few massive celestial territories will remain, the weak will be gone, and then they will turn their full attention to me.”

One must not underestimate those celestials; they are masters at seizing the moment to do what they have desired for ages but previously couldn't achieve.

“Your assessment is accurate,” Yanran agreed.

“However, regardless of their choices, our initiative has made us the center of attention. Whether things happen as you say or not, war is certain, and our enemies will be incredibly powerful.”

“Everything is proceeding as I expected,” Chu Yuan stated.

“Chu Yuan, not every celestial will be our foe. I believe there are those we can bring to our side, making them a part of the Divine Martial Empire.”

Yanran suggested.
