Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System-Chapter 1254 - : The Overall Situation is Settled
Chapter 1254: Chapter 1254: The Overall Situation is Settled
The War God’s moves were ferocious, bearing the crushing pressure of an ancient giant deity, with golden light bursting forth in all directions.
With every strike, he channeled his power to the limit, thundering down like a fierce storm.
Even the strong Luo Tian could only barely resist.
So formidable!
This was the consensus of everyone who witnessed the War God’s might.
The force Luo Tian faced was like a vast ocean, and he was but a small boat, constantly at risk of capsizing amidst its power.
“No choice left, I have to use this move. You’ve forced my hand!”
His face twisted into a vicious and fierce expression.
Suddenly, his brow split open, and a crystal-like eyeball appeared, instantly radiating a hazy aura like a long river.
“Time stands still, the power of Heavenly Dao!”
Luo Tian shouted.

This was actually a power of the Heavenly Dao, but it didn’t belong to him, it was stimulated from within the eyeball.
It was his ultimate trump card.
This eyeball was the greatest opportunity of his life, a special Divine Artifact forged by some ancient existence from the eye of a Heavenly Dao deity.
However, activating it each time came with the cost of consuming his own life force.
It was with this eyeball that he had survived more than a dozen life-threatening crises.
He believed it would be the same this time.
The suspension of time and space was so defying, that when the War God was caught in its beam, he actually stopped moving.
His consciousness was clear, but his body was completely unable to move; all of time and space had frozen around him.
If it had been a true Heavenly Dao deity wielding the power, even his consciousness would be unable to function.
“With this one strike I unleash now, I can freeze you for one second. It’s a brief moment, but it’s enough!”
Luo Tian proclaimed fiercely.
Forget about one second, in a clash between fighters of this level, even a fraction of an instant is enough to determine life or death.
“Die!”
He pushed the power of the temporal standstill to its max, and a purple spear appeared in his hand, ablaze with primordial purple flames. He thrust forward, shaking heaven and earth, aiming straight for the War God’s head.
“He’s going to die!”
Everyone held their breath.
Gu Xuan said coldly, “With just the strength from this Divine Artifact, you think you can kill the War God?”
He wasn’t worried at all.
Boom!
Just when everyone thought the War God couldn’t retaliate while time was halted, he shattered the void with one step, his hand of the War God suddenly reaching out, carrying his will to destroy the heavens.
Luo Tian had a bad feeling.
But it was too late.
The heavens and the firmament could only shatter; all of time and space were under the command of the War God.
With one blast of his power, Luo Tian’s body was swept away; he appeared uninjured on the outside, but his insides were shattered.
“Your strength!”
Luo Tian was horrified; he had never encountered such a terrifying opponent before, “Retreat, retreat, retreat; I must not continue fighting him. My life is incomparably more valuable than the entirety of the Thirteen Cities!”
He was going to flee.
“Run then!”
The moment Luo Tian started his retreat, the other people of the Thirteen Cities were also retreating in fear; such an opponent was simply beyond their ability to contend with.
“Kill, spare not a single one!”
Naturally, Gu Xuan and the others would not let their enemies escape.
“You won’t escape!”
The hand of the War God commanded time and space, striding boldly forward. In an instant, he was in front of Luo Tian, striking like a flash of lightning, his hand directly piercing Luo Tian’s skull.
His hand reached directly for the Heavenly Dao’s Eye.
“Agh! Don’t force me into a corner!”
Luo Tian screamed in agony.
It was as if he saw the Grim Reaper approaching him.
“You think you’re qualified to struggle against me to the death!”
The War God brutally clawed out the still-gushing Eye of the Heavenly Dao.
With his domineering strength, he struck down with his palm once more, like the savagery of ancient wilderness, and Luo Tian’s divine body was completely shattered, as his rolling vital essence was seized by the War God.
The vital essence of a peak sovereign, once integrated into the nation’s destiny, was an immense offering.
With Luo Tian dead, could the others escape?
Everything had already been predestined.
“Luo Tian has perished, and Thirteen City has been annihilated. From now on, the sovereign of this region will be Wushen City!”
“How could they possess such formidable strength? That War God, that divine armored gold-clad man, and that sea of blood… Each one of them has the strength to rank on the Semi-Heavenly charts.”
“That War God will soon be listed on the Semi-Heavenly charts!”
“Luckily, we did not act against Wushen City like Thirteen City did; otherwise, it would be us who met our end!”
“Indeed, if these people are so powerful, how strong must the master behind Wushen City be? It is simply unimaginable!”
The downfall of Thirteen City, a bloody spectacle, was deeply etched into the souls of everyone, leaving them in utter shock and trembling with fear.
“It seems my name will soon rise on the Semi-Heavenly charts.”
The War God surveyed his surroundings with his gaze.
The Semi-Heavenly charts is a list that can fairly assess the strength of sovereigns.
It is said to have been established by an ancient deity from another dimension, recording myriad battles and determining the rankings.
Although the charts couldn’t fully display one’s strength—after all, there are ancient and mysterious beings who rarely take action—it could still provide a rough idea.
The War God called back his troops, leaving behind Thirteen City in ruins.
Despite Thirteen City being backed by thirteen powerful clans, who would dare retaliate after witnessing the strength of the War God and his forces?
“What should we do now?”
Apart from Thirteen City, there were another fifteen cities in this vast region with sovereign-level strengths, whose leaders gathered together, looking at each other in bewilderment, momentarily losing their bearings.
“Let’s go, let’s pay our respects to the War God. His annihilation of Thirteen City has shown us there’s only a dead end in opposing Wushen City. We can only survive by collaborating with them!”
The sovereigns of Thirteen City did not wish to leave.
Although the vast Divine Bloodstone mining region was large, all the valuable places had been taken, and some areas were even beyond their means to tread.
Inside Wushen City.
“We pay our respects to Lord War God.”
The sovereigns of the fifteen cities were extremely nervous as they gazed upon the War God seated upon his throne; they could even vaguely sense an even greater presence from the depths of Wushen City, instilling awe.
They knew this was the master behind the scenes.
“You have done very well.”
The War God looked at them with an authoritative gaze.
“My Lord, having eradicated Thirteen City, you’ve become the ruler of this region. May I ask how you intend to arrange things for us?”
They spoke with bitterness, their fate now in another’s hands.
“I, the Sovereign, welcome any force willing to cooperate with us. Whatever resources you fifteen cities may have, you can bring them to Wushen City and exchange for various things—Divine Elixer, Divine Artifact, even Divine Bloodstone, we have it all.”
The War God’s words carried an irrefutable command, “But whoever dares to make any sly moves behind our backs, they should cease to exist.”
The strong ones of the fifteen cities sighed internally.
They had come to understand.
Wushen City intended to turn them into vassals, losing their former status as rulers.
From then on, they were to toil for Wushen City, exchanging their hard-earned resources, where the lion’s share would belong to others, and they would merely do the grunt work.
But faced with overwhelming strength, what choice did they have but to submit?
They all knew, by heeding Wushen City, they might still enjoy some benefits; otherwise, they would get nothing at all.
“We understand, we shall obey your commands, my Lord.” The leaders of the fifteen cities nodded their agreement.
“Very well, I am fair and just,” declared the War God, content with their subservience.
In the Divine Bloodstone mining region, the aim of the Celestial Empire was to gather resources, attract powerful warriors, and explore forbidden zones. Having these people at their service would save them much trouble.
