Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System Chapter 2078: God
Previously on Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System...
The god is undeniably a terrifying entity, standing as the second Sovereign of the Divine Realm.
He inherited the profound wisdom of the Sovereign King.
It was this very god who commanded numerous powerful figures to launch the uprising against the Sovereign, ultimately toppling the Sovereign King from his throne.
By doing so, the god secured immense advantages, attaining his current level of authority and prestige.
Across the heavens and the earth, it is common knowledge that the god harbors massive ambitions, seeking to surpass the legacy of the Sovereign King.
Nevertheless, his sheer might instills deep-seated fear in others.
The god actually embraces the sudden rise of Chu Yuan and the dawn of the third era; in truth, he has been anticipating its arrival.
Does the god not wish to ignite the third era himself?
Of course he does.
However, he took a vital lesson from the fate of the Sovereign King.
He understands that if he were the one to initiate it, no matter how formidable his Cultivation, he could not survive the collective assault of the other Sovereigns.
Such an act is a total taboo.
But now, Chu Yuan has stepped onto the stage.
In his cold calculations, the god intends for this newcomer to trigger the era and commit the great taboo. He might even stoke the fires of conflict to ensure the war rages more violently.
Then, he would emerge as the ultimate terminator and savior, bringing the third era to a close and ushering in a more powerful fourth era.
By wielding his authority to rally the strong, he could once again orchestrate a war similar to the one against the Sovereign King.
Through this strategy, he will maximize his personal gains.
Chu Yuan is fully aware of the god’s schemes, yet the third era must begin. Sometimes, confronting the most daunting trials yields the most significant rewards.
If one is not consumed by the flames of war, one will grow powerful within them.
This follows the law of destruction preceding establishment.
“I am well aware of the god’s plans,” Chu Yuan stated calmly.
“Emperor, no world barriers are established within the Divine Realm; it remains an entirely open world,” Baodao remarked.
“An entirely open world without constraints means that entering the Divine Realm requires no effort, allowing even Sovereigns to come and go as they please,” Chu Yuan observed.
Typically, every Sovereign Realm utilizes world barriers to prevent sudden incursions by other Sovereigns, which could inflict catastrophic damage on their domain.
Yet, the god has no such fears.
Neither does Chu Yuan.
No Sovereign is reckless enough to cause chaos inside the Divine Realm, as it would provide the god with a perfect excuse to wipe them out.
Furthermore, the god possesses sufficient strength to suppress any disturbance.
“As the third era commences, the god remains welcoming. Should any Sovereign desire to achieve heavenly status within the Divine Realm, he will offer them protection and a place within his order,” Chu Yuan added.
“This god,” Yanran said with a cold tone, “intends to use our efforts and the fire we start to strengthen himself. He hasn't changed a bit.”
“While the god is calculating, he lacks the bravery to reveal the third era himself. The Emperor, however, possesses a fearless resolve and courage that the god simply cannot match!” Baodao exclaimed.
This represents the fundamental difference between the Divine Martial Emperor and the god!
An emperor knows no fear!
The more Baodao recognizes Chu Yuan’s grand vision, the more he admires its scale.
“Divine Martial Emperor.”
Suddenly, a voice echoed from the void.
“God.”
Beyond the Sovereign Realm, Chu Yuan sensed a mysterious energy condensing into a shape amidst an infinite divine glow.
This figure was enveloped in the god’s unique aura.
He represented dignity, power, supremacy, and wisdom—it was as if every exaltation in existence was crafted specifically for him.
This was the god, though not his physical body, but rather his Sovereign will taking form.
Chu Yuan’s eyes pierced through time, fixing his gaze upon the god.
In the space outside the Sovereign Realm, where no world should exist, the power of a Sovereign can manifest reality, allowing one to exist in the nothingness.
“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’s voice was hollow of emotion, yet unlike Yanran’s frostiness, it sounded exactly as a god should—utterly indifferent to all things, yet inspiring absolute faith in his followers.
He had transcended the status of an ordinary Sovereign.
“I have no desire to trade words with you,” Yanran stated. “I know your goal is to recreate the war against the Sovereign King. You were victorious then, but the conclusion of this battle is far from certain.”
“Those who seek to disrupt the natural order will face an unavoidable disaster; your presence merely serves as a catalyst for the Sovereign Realm’s evolution,” the god replied.
“There is no need for further talk. Indeed, god, your will is exceptionally potent, and your true self is reflected perfectly within it. Let us test our wills against one another,” Chu Yuan declared.
Chu Yuan stared at the god, choosing not to strike with his physical body, but instead manifesting his own will.
He understood the god’s intent: a duel on the mental plane to avoid an immediate physical clash.
His will was grand and imperial, befitting the greatest emperor. As it solidified, it stepped beyond world boundaries, birthing new realms in its wake.
“You are a worthy adversary,” the god’s will noted as it observed Chu Yuan.
As the catalyst of the third era, this person held significant weight in the god’s perspective.
He looked down upon other Sovereigns, but he took this one seriously.
Within the Divine Martial Empire, he detected a power that was both familiar and alien. This individual held the same ideals as the Sovereign King but pursued them through entirely different methods.
He also desired to seize all of Chu Yuan’s power, using it as a stepping stone to eventually rule all realms as the ultimate Sovereign.
He felt strongly that by absorbing Chu Yuan’s essence and power, he would not just be the strongest in the Sovereign Realm, but truly invincible across all heavens.
The terms "strongest" and "invincible" are worlds apart.
The Sovereign King was the strongest, yet he was still defeated.
Invincibility implies being globally unbeatable, where no alliance can stand against you and all are easily crushed.
He was well aware that the Sovereign Realm could not stay fractured forever; unification was inevitable.
“A battle of will against will!”
Baodao also focused intently on the clash of these two massive wills outside the Sovereign Realm.
This was a historic event; the god had remained inactive for so long that no one truly knew the depth of his power.
Meanwhile, the Emperor was a figure the likes of which are rarely seen in any age.
Two legendary figures were now colliding.
“The god cannot simply defeat Chu Yuan, so he intends to use this clash of wills to surreptitiously grasp Chu Yuan’s secrets and wisdom. However, Chu Yuan is also using this chance to analyze the god’s strength. Both have the same objective,” Yanran observed, understanding the situation perfectly.
This was a natural conflict.
The fundamental paths of Chu Yuan and the god made them certain enemies who could not coexist in the same Sovereign Realm. Eventually, one must be destroyed.
