Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

```

The cycle of heaven and earth is mystifying beyond compare.

Chu Yuan applied it on Jiuyou, constructing a space-time of reincarnation with immense mana, experiencing lifetimes of reincarnation. The most terrifying aspect was simulating one's life in the form of an illusion.

But this surpassed the art of illusions by an unknowable margin.

Within the cycle of heaven and earth, everything you experience is real; you cannot feel any difference, yet to the outside world, it is but a brief moment.

Chu Yuan let Jiuyou undergo the cycle of heaven and earth, which also served as a tempering of her disposition.

When the light of reincarnation that enveloped her dissolved away, Jiuyou slowly opened her eyes, exhaled a long breath, and inquired, "How much time has passed? I felt as though I had spent millions of years within this cycle of reincarnation. Awakening feels like emerging from a dream; everything before me is as it was, but I am still me—I am very clear on that."

"Barely ten breaths have passed," Chu Yuan said with a smile.

The power of the cycle of heaven and earth is peculiarly special; it can aid the mighty in their cultivation when gentle, or plunge people into downfall when furious.

The most powerful aspect is the dominion over the cycle of heaven and earth.

"Just ten breaths," Jiuyou sighed.

"How confident are you that you can break through to immortality?"

Chu Yuan asked.

"I am now fifty percent confident. The biggest difficulty is that the Blood Moon Empress will seize my will. Any carelessness, and all will be lost. Originally, I had only a ten percent chance, but with the power of the cycle of heaven and earth, I now have fifty percent,"

Jiuyou reflected and then answered truthfully.

"That's not enough, nowhere near enough. I have reached immortality and can help you gain complete control over the Blood Moon Divine Artifact, and you can suppress the Blood Moon Empress with the power of the cycle of heaven and earth during the battle of wills,"

Chu Yuan said.

"I understand,"

Jiuyou sighed softly.

She looked at the figure before her—who was smiling gently at her yet in truth, was a Great Emperor standing above heaven and earth, supreme in the cosmos, wielding the power of the Divine Martial—with the undying image fixed forever in her mind.

"Your servant thanks Your Majesty for the gift of the divine crystal; for the sake of the empire, I would die a thousand deaths!"

Chu Yuan encouraged Jiuyou to continue striving for immortality, then awarded a piece of the immortal divine crystal to the Enlightenment Book.

The Enlightenment Book's accumulation was profound; its accumulation of laws and will was already enough. What it lacked now was the substance of immortality.

"Cultivate diligently. The great battle approaches; the empire needs your strength,"

Chu Yuan said to it.

In the thirty-seventh year of the Divine Martial,

Two months after Chu Yuan broke through to immortality and summoned the immortal Divine Artifacts.

Hum!

A horrifyingly dark and oppressive aura swept through cosmic space-time like a storm. Everything it struck corroded instantly, and a vast sea of cursed power submerged the Divine Martial Empire.

The last Curse Artifact had been summoned!

Boom!

The Gate of Curses that Chu Yuan held was violently trembling, with a backlash of power roaring within, explosively multiplying a hundredfold, a thousandfold, threatening to burst forth from within the Divine Martial Empire.

Chu Yuan's gaze hardened as he looked into the void.

He saw a dark scepter, a vague figure wielding it, striking a blow at his empire.

"So it has finally come? I have been waiting for a long time,"

Chu Yuan, whose reach spanned the heavens, held the Gate of Curses and stepped out into the void to confront the wielder of the cursed scepter.

Although he had been able to summon a Curse Artifact for quite some time, he refrained, knowing that the gathering of all nine would form a perfection, a surge of power remarkable beyond measure.

However, once controlled, the benefits to be gained were immeasurable.

```

The time had come, and Chu Yuan now possessed enough power to suppress the Curse Gate.

The power of the Scepter struck Chu Yuan's body with pinpoint accuracy.

However, he was unmoved and unaffected.

But the Curse Gate underwent a shocking transformation; the eight Divine Artifacts erupted with a power far more terrifying than before, seemingly ready to disperse the gateway.

Chu Yuan fiercely exerted his strength.

Now, he was not aiming to directly control the nine Curse Artifacts, but to use his own immense power to reunify them into a whole once again.

Crack! The Curse Gate shattered into pieces, the eight Curse Artifacts flew off, converging with the Cursed Scepter.

In an instant, an inconceivable scene occurred; a thick aura sprayed out from the Curse Pot first.

Following that, the cursed skeleton revived, crowned with a divine circlet, draped in a divine robe, wielding the Scepter, and the powers of the other Artifacts transformed into a torrent of cursed energy that merged into the cursed skeleton, augmenting its power.

This was the ultimate form of the Curse Artifacts, a figure of an ancient Curse King emerged.

The gods and demons trembled with fear as the Curse King descended upon the world; his eyes opened, casting a horrified divine light onto Chu Yuan.

"This... This is the legendary Curse King! The last time he appeared was when he assaulted the gods, only to be dispersed by them. Now he has reappeared in the cosmos, and furthermore, he was directly summoned by His Majesty!"

The Enlightenment Book witnessed the great marvel in the cosmos, feeling both terrified and excited.

"The Curse King? Very well, I have long been awaiting your appearance," said Chu Yuan.

His eyes were vast, with the fluctuations of cosmic reincarnation.

He clearly understood that without the nine united, there could never be a power to curse the immortal.

"To curse..."

The Curse King's voice emitted a strange cursed sound; standing amidst the stars, he tapped with the Scepter, and the power to curse fell directly onto Chu Yuan from across the void.

This kind of curse was almost impossible to dodge; one could only passively endure it.

But Chu Yuan appeared very calm. He made no move, and as soon as the curse touched him, a vortex akin to the stars emerged, dissolving into nothingness.

The Dark Scythe suddenly materialized, aiming to directly decapitate Chu Yuan's head, and at the same time, the Cursed Axe approached head-on from the front.

However, with a wave of his hand, Chu Yuan fully displayed the power of an immortal god, earth-shatteringly mighty; regardless of how the Curse King attacked him, whether openly or in secret, all were rendered ineffective and dissipated.

The terror of the Curse King lay in his cursed power that could invade your body, spreading like a deadly poison. Moreover, each time he cursed a powerful being, his own power would become even more dreadful.

Nonetheless, Chu Yuan was too powerful.

He was not frightened by the curse's strangeness; all could be suppressed by him.

"Curse!"

The Curse King seemed to be enraged as well.

His aura turned the world upside down, the curse's corroding flow pervading the infinite cosmos, unbearable for even an immortal of the lowest realm who stepped into it.

Bang! The torrential flood of the curse slammed against him, yet he did not move an inch.

"The control of reincarnation!"

Whoosh.

Chu Yuan reached out with his great hand, constructing a domain of control over reincarnation within his grasp; the Curse King was immediately trapped inside.

The Curse King roared in anger.

He meant to demonstrate his formidable majesty anew to all the heavens, his hands moving in frenzied dances, but no matter how he bombarded, he could not break the cosmic space-time controlled by Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan no longer wished to toy with the Curse King.

As he brought his hands together, the immortal aura spread out, immediately compressing the cursed breath, once again reshaping it into something like a Curse Gate. Inside it was the Curse King, becoming the focal point of the curse.
