Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

The front lines at Jinhe Mountain were constantly embroiled in warfare.

Within a month, ten major battles had erupted, averaging one every three days.

Compared to the first battle, the subsequent ones required much more caution.

Even though Dawu suffered significant damages and several Celestial Gods had fallen, the casualties on the side of the Eastern Forbidden Lands were evidently graver, with more than a dozen Celestial Gods dying in combat.

Most of these fallen Celestial Gods were killed by the sacred puppets using Shooting God Bows.

The Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty, a seven-star imperial dynasty, only had dozens of Celestial Gods, roughly equivalent to the number of fallen seven-star powers.

Even if the Eastern Forbidden Lands had profound resources, it could not endure such losses in a short time.

Dongchen Xuan God, Cheng Law Xuan God, Zhong Ling Xuan God, and an elder Xuan God sat firmly here, but without over double their count of Xuan Gods, it's very difficult to use strong attack methods to break through Dawu's front-line deployment at Jinhe Mountain.

Besides.

If the Demon Horde does not appear, the Eastern Forbidden Lands cannot accurately estimate their numbers, and would not dare act recklessly.

Thus, a month later, the large army of the Eastern Forbidden Lands retreated, not to surrender, but to strategically retreat.

"Your Majesty, the entire Eastern Forbidden Lands is retreating and garrisoning at another location within the Divine Mountain, but not reducing their troops. Instead, more and more powerful beings continue to gather," reported the court officials to Chu Yuan in the city of Wuchu.

"Your Majesty, the retreat of the Eastern Forbidden Lands is definitely not to give up. Instead, they are becoming increasingly covetous of Dawu. After all, Dawu's display of strength deters them from further battles, but it is mostly due to the suppression of the sacred puppets, which act as a restraint. To replenish their resources, swallowing Dawu is a very good choice."

"The power of Xuan Gods on both sides is deterrent to each other. Below the Xuan Gods, the Eastern Forbidden Lands cannot gain any advantage, instead suffering immense losses. They have withdrawn for now, intending to accumulate more power, like a tightly clenched fist, once they strike again, the damage will be even greater."

"There are many who want to lay hands on us, such as the Qingmu Everlasting Empire, and the Yanmo Cave Heaven is also not behaving. The Eastern Forbidden Lands now do not want to fight a losing battle with Dawu and let them reap the benefits."

...

The crowd discussed and analyzed the current situation.

"The goal of the Eastern Forbidden Lands is very clear. But at the moment, we don't have many countermeasures. Although I can withstand their attack, like them, I cannot completely crush them either. By stationing their troops to engage Dawu in a stalemate, their strategy is not bad."

After hearing the analysis of all these ministers and officials, Chu Yuan nodded, "Move the royal vehicle forward, and order the Construction Department to build a large city on Jinhe Mountain. I will personally sit in Jinhe City."

"Your Majesty is going to be stationed in Jinhe City?" said the surprised officials.

"The Casting Department will dispatch people to Jinhe City to smelt materials on site, go and prepare."

Once the order was issued, half a day later, Chu Yuan's royal vehicle moved to Jinhe City.

Amidst divine light, Chu Yuan, riding on an ancient imperial war chariot and a grown Void Overlord fish radiating colors of the void, arrived along with the Divine Army.

"Your Majesty!"

Upon their arrival, the various army units within Jinhe City knelt down, looking at the majestic being, reverence sprung from their hearts.

"Rise."

Chu Yuan's ancient imperial chariot landed in Jinhe City and came directly to the newly built palace, and he sat down there: "With me stationed here, it saves the time wasted on the transmission of various news."

"We await your command, Your Majesty," said the assembled generals.

"With me here, some of our military power can be deployed, hence, there's no need to guard against the Eastern Forbidden Lands."

The purpose of Chu Yuan coming here was to release most of the military power, rather than wasting it on a standoff with the Eastern Forbidden Lands. He said, "The King of Loyalty and Bravery will continue to command Dawu's military forces. He will listen to his deployment. The Five Elements Five Corps, the Light, and the Dark Legions will stay put.

The two armies, the God of War and the Demon God, will spread out from Jinhe Mountain to collect resources, but they cannot go too far from Jinhe Mountain."

"The two armies, the God of War and the Demon God, although not weak, would still have difficulty if they encounter exceptional beings."

Lu Qianfu nodded.

If they encountered strong forces on the front lines of Jinhe Mountain, support could be swiftly provided.

"Ning Xiuchen," Chu Yuan looked at Ning Xiuchen.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"You are a Xuan God, and the control of the Sound Thunder Sword Formations is given to you. I will hand over the three armies - the Army of the War God, the Jail-suppressing Army, and the Divine Army - to you to lead. In the Divine Mountain, search for resources for the Empire and also hunt down Celestial God experts."

Said Chu Yuan.

With him in Jinhe City, he no longer needed Ning Xiuchen's defense.

"I understand," said Ning Xiuchen, "It's quite chaotic within the Divine Mountain, losing a few Celestial Gods is insignificant, even if a Xuan God falls, it's normal. In ancient times, when the Divine Mountain appeared, even Transcendent Gods have fallen."

"Void Overlord Fish, you also move along with the Divine Army, responsible for scouting out intelligence."

Said Chu Yuan.

...

Once all the deployment was done, Ning Xiuchen took the lead and went deep into the Divine Mountain.

All kinds of resources and ores were continuously brought into Jinhe City, and Chu Yuan directly refined them on the spot, turning them into various treasures for the grand army.

The Eastern Forbidden Lands, knowing that the Emperor of Dawu had stationed himself in Jinhe City, dared not act rashly. They knew that the strength of Dawu was brought about by this Martial Emperor.

Chu Yuan allocated two Starry Sky Battleships to Ning Xiuchen.

At this moment, in the high heavens, the Starry Sky Battleships were hidden, making no trace of their presence.

"Void Overlord Fish, using your spatial talent, quickly find those Celestial Gods for me. This time, I want to hunt these Celestial Gods for His Majesty!"

Said Ning Xiuchen.

Celestial Gods are extremely important strategic reserves, killing them not only gains a large amount of God Liquid but also helps extract the laws of Celestial Gods to cultivate more powerhouses.

The Void Overlord Fish made a humming sound, shaking its tail. In an instant, it merged into the void and disappeared.

"What a Void Overlord Fish, a Void Overlord that takes advantage of its peculiar Spatial Gifts. Even if I were to take action now, it would be difficult to capture it. If it continues to evolve into a Xuan God, it would be something!"

At this moment, the Void Overlord Fish made Ning Xiuchen lose his senses.

He stood in place, silently waiting for the news to come.

The Divine Mountain had opened, and forces from the entire Eternal World have arrived from all directions, not to mention Celestial Gods, even the number of Xuan Gods was not small.

"Have you found any trace of a Celestial God?"

Ning Xiuchen didn't have to wait too long. After only a few days, the Void Overlord Fish appeared in front of him, conveying news.

"You guys wait here, hunting Celestial Gods is the most important thing as per His Majesty's orders!"

Ning Xiuchen and the Void Overlord Fish disappeared together.

Inside the Divine Mountain ruins, some unknown force's Celestial God was moving cautiously.

In this ruin where even Xuan Gods could be seen, even if one practiced to become a Celestial God, they often faced the risk of being hunted down.

Suddenly, the sky cracked open, a terrifying and enormous Xuan God hand reached out.

"A Xuan God, a powerful being is coming, we have to escape quickly!"

The Celestial Gods saw the hand of the Xuan God, their faces distorted with horror, and they began to flee in all directions.

But a Xuan God hunting ordinary Celestial Gods was an easy task. The bodies of these Celestial Gods exploded with a bang, turned into a rolling torrent, and then were transported by Ning Xiuchen into the Heavenly Furnace.

This energy of these Celestial Gods was also immediately refined and controlled by Chu Yuan, sent back to Dawu.

"Void Overlord Fish, continue searching. Inside the Divine Mountain, we need to hunt down many more Celestial Gods."

Ning Xiuchen became a hunter, hunting down the strong inside the Divine Mountain.
