Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

"I am not sure, Your Majesty. What would you like to discuss with me?"

Wei Shen appeared nervous. The Chu Yuan standing before him was no longer the weak and ineffectual young emperor he had imagined, but a terrifying presence capable of leading his divine warriors to slay the Purple Lightning Serpent.

[Option One: Execute Wei Shen. The dignity of the imperial throne will not tolerate any offense, nor will it allow anyone with sinister intentions to persist. Earn 100 Destiny Points and increase the construction progress of the Divine Cannon by 20%, current progress is at 60%.]

[Option Two: Spare Wei Shen. This action serves to avoid offending King Wei and prevents an open confrontation. Earn 100 Destiny Points and increase the construction progress of the Armored Flying Boat schematic by 20%.]

"Prince, there is no need for me to explicitly state what you've done,"

Chu Yuan watched Wei Shen indifferently.

"I unintentionally attracted more giant beasts while trying to save Your Majesty earlier. It was my mistake for which I deserve to die. However, it was not intentional. I beg Your Majesty to understand,"

Wei Shen was soaked with sweat, feeling like a prey under Chu Yuan's intense gaze. He feared punishment and reckoning.

"Do understand that you deserve to die."

Chu Yuan had made his choice: "Wei Shen, for your scheme of bringing in the giant beasts to hurt me, under the laws of Dawu, you should be put to death. However, considering that you're the son of King Wei, I am offering you a chance to die with dignity, allowing your body to remain whole."

"What! Your Majesty wants to kill me?" Wei Shen would never have expected this. He roared desperately: "No! You can't kill me, Your Majesty. Although I have committed a crime, it is not enough to warrant death! Besides, my father is King Wei.

He commands millions of soldiers!"

"Are you using King Wei to threaten me?" Chu Yuan's eyes turned cold.

"I... I dare not," Wei Shen stuttered.

"Your Majesty, even though Wei Shen has committed an offense, his father is ultimately King Wei as he said. Given the current unstable situation, there will not be any benefits from killing him. Instead we could imprison him in the Sky Prison, forcing him to reflect on his actions. I believe Wei Shen did not possess the intent to harm Your Majesty."

Li Yun sensed something was off and immediately began pleading on Wei Shen's behalf.

"Even the Prime Minister believes Wei Shen shouldn't be killed." Chu Yuan's eyes remained lowered, then suddenly spoke, "Wei Shen, I am giving you a chance."

"What kind of chance?"

"If you can escape from me, I will spare your life."

Chu Yuan beckoned towards Wei Shen.

"This is Your Majesty's decree!"

With his head hung low, Wei Shen suddenly roared: "Your Majesty's decree forces me to fight and so I must fight. The king must not jest!"

"Heaven-scorching Palm Strike!"

At this moment of life and death, Wei Shen had no choice but to unleash his strongest move. His hands sharply rubbed together to generate searing flames, resembling a fiery rainbow cascading from the sky, directly heading towards Chu Yuan's head.

Chu Yuan's face remained unchanged even as Wei Shen attacked. The seventh form of his Divine Fighting Technique instantly broke through Wei Shen's attack. Despite being at the seventh tier of divine abilities, he himself was at the sixth tier of divine spirit, comparable to the sixth tier of divine abilities, and had many strategies up his sleeve.

The magnificent radiance of the seventh form of his fighting technique broke through the Heaven-scorching Palm and transformed into a gigantic palm print that bombarded Wei Shen.

"Ah! If you want to take my life, I will take yours!"

Wei Shen was fighting with his life at stake.

Completely disregarding any possible consequences, his divine spirit burned violently, his face twisted as he mustered all his strength for a desperate attack.

Bang!

He charged forward in a frenzy, but Chu Yuan merely stretched his palm, and an inexhaustible force of absorption appeared, effortlessly nullifying this fierce attack.

"I shall personally send you on your way."

Chu Yuan turned around, reached out in defiance, and grabbed Wei Shen's neck. Utilizing his body, he performed the Great Devouring Technique to absorb the desperate power he was putting out, immediately lifting his struggling body into the air.

"Save... save me!" Wei Shen cried for help: "Prime Minister, General Dawu, my father gave you....."

"Wei Shen plots against the Emperor, he deserves to die a thousand deaths!"

Li Yun retorted angrily.

Crack!

Wei Shen's neck was broken, his soul was pulled straight out of his head by Chu Yuan, casually thrown aside: "Loyal and Valiant Marquis, return his body to King Wei Wu. In respect for King Wei Wu, I have left his body intact."

Upon hearing Chu Yuan's words, the corners of the government officials' mouths twitched harshly. How audacious to say it was out of respect, after killing the man's son.

They suddenly got a feeling that this current Emperor was even more ruthless than the previous one.

"Ding! The host has made choice one, awarded with one hundred Destiny Points, and a twenty percent progress in designs for the Heaven Shaking Cannon, with current progress at eighty percent."

"Chaos, Poor Strange, Huge Man, and Gluttonous Camp Leaders, there are still remnants of dangerous beasts in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range. At any time, another beast tide could be launched, requiring constant monitoring by the four of you."

Chu Yuan said: "This time, the one who emerged first in the Imperial Dynasty's hunting seems to be Commander Zhu Fengfeng of the Vermilion Bird. In addition to the head start, there will be weapons and armor constructed from the Purple Thunder Flood Dragon. I'll have the Ministry of Works deliver them to Commander Vermilion Bird shortly."

"Thank you for bestowing this, Your Majesty."

Zhu Fengfeng, her face remaining cold throughout the reward announcement, showed no change in expression.

Chu Yuan didn't mind. While dealing with the magical beast just now, the other four camp leaders still held back, but Zhu Fengfeng was always at the forefront of the fight, a fact he had noticed.

"Now that the Imperial Dynasty Hunt is over, all the ministers may return to their respective residencies." Chu Yuan said: "Eunuch Wei, prepare the carriage for the Shen Yang Palace."

"Ding! The host has completed the event, the Imperial Dynasty Hunt, and received one thousand five hundred Destiny Points, and one Giant Spirit Guard."

"Current Destiny Points balance: two thousand seven hundred points."

Giant Spirit Guard: Extraordinarily powerful, a replica of the giant spirit god.

A guardian constructed from extraterrestrial fine iron, inscribed with countless inscriptions, capable of defending against all attacks from the Divine Realm and above, but its attack power is only equivalent to the first level of the Divine Realm.

Upon seeing the giant puppet appearing in the System Space, three feet tall, tower-like, Chu Yuan's expression was full of astonishment.

Especially after seeing the introduction, his mouth twitched a bit.

Able to defend against divine realm attacks, but with attack strength equivalent to only the first level of the divine realm. It was a defense god, but attack ghost, a typical tank with high defense and health.

Even though its attack strength was very pitiful, as long as it was used in the right place, it could be stronger than something with a terrifying attack power.

"Return to the Shen Yang Palace."

Accompanied by Eunuch Wei's high-pitched voice, the ceremonial team returned to the royal palace, and the thirty thousand divine military also returned, leaving the scene in chaos.

"Our Emperor is quite terrifying indeed."

Li Yun took a deep breath, somewhat apprehensive: "I previously thought he was just a child, controllable in my hands. But he is more terrifying than I imagined, even more chilling than the previous Emperor. However, now that the plan has reached this stage, there is absolutely no turning back!"

"But his killing of Wei Shen was his biggest mistake!" Shangguan Qingyun coldly interjected: "King Wei Wu has already taken half a step into the divine realm. With such power, he is already capable of founding an imperial dynasty. Having murdered his son, will King Wu Wei let it be? This is the perfect excuse to start a war!"

"An arrow never returns to its bow. At this time, we must be more vigilant." said Li Yun.

"I know. I refuse to believe that an Emperor who has only ascended the throne for a few months can stem this overwhelming tide!"

Shangguan Qingyun's face became somewhat fierce: "Time, we can't give him more time!"
