Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System Chapter 2078: God

The god is undeniably a horrifying presence, standing as the second Sovereign of the Divine Realm.

He was the one who inherited the Sovereign King’s profound wisdom.

It was this very god who commanded a multitude of powerful experts to wage war against the Sovereign, ultimately toppling the Sovereign King from his throne.

By doing so, the god reaped massive rewards, securing his current level of dominion and prestige.

Across the heavens and the earth, his vast ambitions are common knowledge; he seeks to evolve into an existence even more supreme than the Sovereign King.

Nevertheless, the sheer scale of his power instills deep-seated terror in all.

The god actually embraces the abrupt rise of Chu Yuan and the dawn of the third era; in fact, he has been anticipating its arrival.

Is it that the god has no desire to start the third era himself?

Certainly, he does.

However, he has internalized the bitter lessons left by the Sovereign King.

He understands that if he were the one to trigger it, no matter his individual strength, he could not withstand a unified assault from the many Sovereigns.

To do so is a forbidden taboo.

But now, Chu Yuan has emerged on the stage.

Through his cold calculations, the god intends to let this newcomer initiate the era and commit the great taboo. He might even stoke the fires, ensuring the flames of war burn with greater intensity.

His plan is to eventually step in as the terminator and savior, bringing the third era to a close and ushering in a more powerful fourth era.

Utilizing his supreme authority to rally the strong, he could once again launch a crusade similar to the one against the Sovereign King.

In this manner, he would maximize his personal gains.

Chu Yuan is well aware of the god’s schemes, yet the third era must be set in motion; sometimes, the most daunting trials yield the most magnificent rewards.

If one is not consumed by the fires of conflict, one will grow powerful within them.

This follows the ancient principle of destruction preceding true establishment.

"I am fully aware of the god’s designs," Chu Yuan stated calmly.

"Emperor, no world barriers exist within the Divine Realm; it remains an entirely open domain," Baodao observed.

"A world without boundaries or restrictions means that entering the Divine Realm is effortless; even Sovereigns can come and go as they please," Chu Yuan remarked.

Typically, every Sovereign Realm employs world barriers to prevent sudden incursions by other Sovereigns, which could wreak havoc on their home world.

Yet, the god possesses no fear.

Neither does Chu Yuan.

No Sovereign would be foolish enough to cause a disturbance inside the Divine Realm, as it would provide the god with a perfect excuse to annihilate them.

Furthermore, the god wields enough might to suppress any rebellion.

"As the third era commences, the god remains welcoming. Should any Sovereign wish to achieve a heavenly state within the Divine Realm, he will offer them refuge and inclusion," Chu Yuan continued.

"That god," Yanran said with a cold tone, "wants to use our efforts and the fire we kindle to bolster his own strength. He hasn't changed a bit."

"The god is indeed calculating, yet he lacks the nerve to reveal the third era himself. In contrast, the Emperor possesses a fearless resolve and courage that the god can never hope to match!" Baodao exclaimed.

This represents the fundamental difference between the Divine Martial Emperor and the god!

A true emperor knows no fear!

As Bao grew to understand and admire Chu Yuan’s grand ambitions, he realized just how magnificent they truly were.

"Divine Martial Emperor."

Suddenly, a voice echoed from the depths of the void.

"God."

Standing outside the Sovereign Realm, Chu Yuan sensed a cryptic force manifest into a shape amidst an infinite radiance of divine light.

This figure was enveloped in the god’s distinct aura.

He represented dignity, power, supremacy, and wisdom—it was as if every noble word in existence was fashioned to describe him.

This was the god, though not his physical body; rather, it was a manifestation of his Sovereign will.

Chu Yuan’s vision pierced through time as he locked eyes with the god.

In the space outside the Sovereign Realm, where no world previously existed, the power of a Sovereign could perpetually forge new worlds to sustain their presence.

"God, do you not even dare to show your true self?" Yanran asked, her face devoid of emotion and her voice freezing.

"There is no distinction between my will and my true self," the god replied.

His voice was completely hollow of emotion, differing from Yanran’s icy tone; it was the sound of a being indifferent to all things, a figure meant to inspire blind faith in all living souls.

He was no longer just a typical Sovereign.

"I have no desire to trade words with you," Yanran said. "I know your goal is simply to repeat the war against the Sovereign King. Fine, you were victorious then, but the result of this struggle is yet to be decided."

"Catastrophe is the fate of those who seek to disrupt the natural order; your presence only serves to further the evolution of the Sovereign Realm," the god declared.

"Enough talk. Indeed, god, your will is exceptionally potent, and there is no difference between your self and your intent. Let us settle this with a clash of wills," Chu Yuan said.

Chu Yuan stared at the god, choosing not to strike with his physical body, but instead condensing his own immense will.

He recognized the god’s objective: a battle on the mental plane to avoid a direct physical confrontation.

His will was glorious and dominant, the mark of a supreme emperor. As it solidified, it transcended worlds, birthing new realms wherever his intent reached.

"You are worthy of being my rival," the god’s will noted as it assessed Chu Yuan.

As the catalyst for the third era, this man held significant weight in the god’s mind.

The god looked down upon other Sovereigns, but he could not ignore this one.

Within the Divine Martial Empire, he detected a power that was both familiar and alien; Chu Yuan shared the Sovereign King’s grand ideals but utilized a completely different, extreme methodology.

The god also desired to seize all of Chu Yuan's power, using it as a stepping stone to eventually rule over every realm.

He felt a strong premonition that by absorbing Chu Yuan’s essence and power, he would not just be the strongest in the Sovereign Realm, but invincible above all the heavens.

The concepts of being the "strongest" and being "invincible" were worlds apart.

The Sovereign King had been the strongest, yet he was still cast down.

Invincibility meant being totally unbeatable, where no alliance could ever hope to suppress him.

He knew the Sovereign Realm could not stay fractured forever; unification was inevitable.

"A battle of will against will!"

Bao also focused intensely on the collision of these two massive wills occurring outside the Sovereign Realm.

This was an unprecedented event throughout history; the god had remained inactive for so long that no one knew the true depth of his power.

Meanwhile, the Emperor was a legendary figure rarely seen in any age.

Two titans were crashing together.

"The god cannot simply defeat Chu Yuan, so he plans to use this clash of wills to covertly grasp Chu Yuan’s wisdom and power. However, Chu Yuan is also using this chance to probe the god’s strength. Both have the same underlying motive," Yanran observed, seeing through everything.

This was a conflict born of nature.

The opposing paths of Chu Yuan and the god made them certain enemies who could not exist together in the same Sovereign Realm; one would inevitably have to be destroyed.
