Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

Another powerful entity initiated an attack on Dawu.

Although it didn't arrive in person, it activated a mighty Divine Artifact and launched an attack towards Dawu across the void.

This divine long knife, transcending infinite distances, collapsed the void in front of it. The fierce blade light could split a star, halve a Celestial God instantly, and set off an endless river of blade energy.

"An Emperor-class Divine Artifact!"

Everyone was shocked.

Only an Emperor-class Divine Artifact could have such a might to slaughter across the void.

"Eastern Initial Divine Knife!" Xiao Yang exclaimed, "Your Majesty Dawu, this is the Eastern Initial Divine Knife from the forbidden area of Eastern Initial, a true Emperor-class Divine Artifact!"

"Eastern Initial Forbidden Area!"

Chu Yuan's eyes flickered.

A Forbidden Area meant a territory where ordinary people were forbidden from entering. Discover more stories at empire

He also knew that any place deemed such would be garrisoned by at least a dozen or more Gods, some of whose ancestors were Gods themselves. These places would be suppressed by Emperor-class Divine Artifacts deep within their foundations.

He understood how Forbidden Areas came into being.

Over numerous millennia in the eternal world, many powerful forces had been born, many of which had vanished into the river of history, while some had been preserved.

For instance, the Everlasting Empire had disintegrated after the departure of the Everlasting Great Emperor, and some of its forces withdrew into the Immortal Forbidden Area.

Some ancient and powerful forces, pre-empting the inevitable, withdrew from the world, sealed themselves off, evading the onrush of the changing times. They became Forbidden Areas, off-limits to outsiders.

These Forbidden Areas were ancient, and all harbored powerful remnants.

However, Dawu was not adjacent to the Eastern Initial Forbidden Area and had never interacted with anyone from there before.

"Eastern Initial Forbidden Area, Demon Abyss Imperial Family!"

In an instant, Chu Yuan made the connection.

The Demon Abyss Imperial Family, which left Imperial City before its fall, reportedly went to the Eastern Initial Forbidden Area. It seemed they sought the help of powerful entities from the Forbidden Area to attack Dawu.

Forbidden Areas were powerful, there wouldn't be any reason for them to intervene without cause.

"Emperor-class Divine Artifact, I have one too!"

Chu Yuan swung his hand, and thousands of long swords dispersed, transforming into an endless river of Sword Qi. Suddenly, all swords merged into one, slashing towards the Eastern Initial Divine Knife.

The Sound Thunder Sword also directly flew into the vast sky to block the Eastern Initial Divine Knife.

Bang!

The knife and the sword clashed fiercely. The void split, and a vast light radiated. The Eastern Initial Divine Knife did not fall as expected but was blocked by the Sound Thunder Sword.

Chu Yuan waved his hand, the Sound Thunder Swords dispersed to form a sword formation, emitting the sound of thunder, forming a thunder net, trapping the Eastern Initial Divine Knife.

The Eastern Initial Divine Knife was slashing furiously against the Sound Thunder Sword, but it couldn't break through the sword formation.

"Sword Formation!"

Xiao Yang and Meng Tian were also surprised, "When combined, they form an Emperor-class Divine Artifact, Dawu has a treasure comparable to an Emperor-class Divine Artifact!"

Power enough to seriously injure a divine figure.

An Emperor-class Divine Artifact capable of repelling the Eastern Initial Divine Knife.

Adding these two together, Xiao Yang could not help but wildly speculate.

Could Dawu also be an ancient powerful force that emerged in this era, established an Imperial Dynasty, and had a powerful force backing it? No wonder it was not afraid of the Everlasting Empire.

Meng Tian's hair was flying wildly, he clapped his hands together, and two light columns forcefully bombarded.

"Go!"

In an instant, another surge of divine power emerged.

This power was unstoppable and directly broke through Meng Tian's defenses, slamming him into the ground. This divine figure fell and was deeply buried, emerging in a terrible state, his face pale.

A powerful spell, three divine figures of the sixth level attacking with full force, was akin to a death-defying force.

"Meng Tian is seriously injured!"

Xiao Yang's eyes flickered.

"I just can't believe you can continue to explode!"

Meng Tian, at this moment, was also extremely aggrieved.

Originally, with his divine power, dealing with Dawu would have been easy. With his power, even if Dawu had state power, he could still turn it upside down, leaving no room for retaliation.

But who could have imagined that Dawu would unleash two bursts of power and seriously injure him.

"You can continue trying."

Chu Yuan looked indifferent, making it hard for people to read him as he effortlessly unleashed a surge of profound divine power, striking a deadly blow.

Innumerable eyes were focusing on Chu Yuan. How many times could he strike with such power of Dawu?

They then turned to Meng Tian. Even facing this seemingly infinite card up Chu Yuan's sleeve, would this profound god dare to risk everything and clash with Dawu again?

"I...!"

Meng Tian felt cornered as he was caught between a rock and a hard place.

If he could launch another strike like the previous one, he could ensure his own survival but it would certainly damage his profound divine foundation and inflict severe injuries.

In the Immortal Forbidden Area, he wasn't afraid of serious injuries, but here, he was.

He didn't dare to gamble, gamble if Dawu could strike as harshly as before.

"Ha-ha, Dawu's strength is truly astounding." Xiaoyang voiced out.

"You've been ruthless this time, old man yields!"

Profound gods are indeed afraid to die.

Meng Tian would rather lose face than continue the fight with Dawu here.

He could see that Xiaoyang was like a vicious wolf.

Xiaoyang might not have made a move yet, but he would surely swoop in for a lethal strike the moment Meng Tian was severely injured, possibly even killing him.

Up to this point in their war with the Holy Sky Empire, although no profound god had fallen, some Celestial Gods had perished.

Meng Tian took his leave.

Dongchu Divine Knife also withdrew as it could not penetrate the Sound Thunder Sword formation.

Xiaoyang's comment was not meant to aid Dawu but he had his own calculus.

Dawu was mysterious and formidable, capable of slaying the Celestial God of the Everlasting Empire of Qingmu. After the battle with Meng Tian, it was clear that he was hostile towards this empire.

The enemy of his enemy could be his friend.

Xiaoyang was also troubled by their war with the Everlasting Empire of Qingmu.

He recognized that the Emperor of Dawu was not easy to deal with. If Dawu could distract some forces of Qingmu's Everlasting Empire, then it would be advantageous for him.

The witnesses were also astounded.

Dawu had successfully driven back a profound god.

This kind of strength was too formidable.

From the calm demeanor of the Emperor of Dawu, it seemed he still had other aces up his sleeve.

Zhenyan Xuanshen also felt some concern. His previous caution was justified. Fortunately, he had not taken action, as his strength was not even close to Meng Tian's.

"This god bids his farewell!"

Zhenyan Xuanshen hurriedly left.

A large number of people followed suit.

"King Pingding, won't you stay in my Imperial City for a few days?" Chu Yuan asked.

As it appeared that the Holy Sky Empire intended to befriend him, Chu Yuan certainly would not refuse this gesture of goodwill.

"Ha-ha, if Emperor Dawu is personally inviting me, I will certainly stay for a few more days."

Xiaoyang did not leave.

"Dongchu Forbidden Area!"

Chu Yuan was looking in the direction where Dongchu Divine Knife had left, noticing a powerful presence.

He did not show anger or resentment.

This was quite normal.

Among different nations and powers, unlike individuals, there is no distinction of right or wrong. Interest comes first.

There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

Now, Xiaoyang could be friendly to him, but someday for the sake of the Holy Sky Empire, he could turn into an enemy in the blink of an eye.

If Chu Yuan wished to expand and any power tried to stop him, he would eliminate it right away.

Should anyone display friendliness towards him now, Chu Yuan would gladly accept it.

However, Chu Yuan also noted that Dongchu Forbidden Area had made a move against him.
