Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System
Chapter 49 - 49: The God of Damnation_1

Pang Yuan knew Chu Yuan was very strong, far beyond what his level indicated.

But, when their actual confrontation occurred, Pang Yuan realized all his previous estimates were incorrect, and incredibly so.

This power was even more terrifying than what he had displayed in the Wanshou Mountain Range. His Mana-infused punch immediately disintegrated.

Boom!

Chu Yuan's earth-shattering blow landed heavily on him, making his ears ring, the blood within his body roiled, and he could barely maintain his balance.

"So terrifying!"

Pang Yuan slid back hundreds of steps before stabilizing himself, his eyes fixated on Chu Yuan, "Your stage is still at the level of the Primordial Spirit, yet your combat power is immense. This definitely couldn't have been the foundation left to you by the previous emperor. If he had such resources, the five countries would have been unified long ago!"

"Pang Yuan, as the Minister of War, you have rebelled against your superior. Today, I will capture you alive and execute you publicly at noon!"

Chu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, dressed in a deep black robe symbolic of ancient battlefields, but didn't respond to Pang Yuan's query.

"Are you dreaming of capturing me alive?"

Pang Yuan laughed scornfully.

His knife was like a magical weapon, eerie and cunning. Numerous wisps of nebulous knife energy descended in an odd, floating manner with every step he took, symbolizing three slashes, continuous as a river and extraordinarily profound.

"Magical knife." Chu Yuan spoke in a subdued tone: "I have encountered your magical knife's power before."

However, despite the oddity of the Knife, Chu Yuan only had to glide slightly for the blade's radiance to slip past him. In Pang Yuan's eyes, Chu Yuan seemed to be as elusive as a current of electricity and almost impossible to track.

"What's happening?" Pang Yuan was growing increasingly impatient.

"Great Thunder Technique, God-killing Thunder."

Chu Yuan uttered softly.

As he harmonized his breath, the dark clouds rolled in overhead, with thunder rumbling. Arm-thick thunderbolts fell, soon followed by a storm of lightning filling the heavens and earth.

He was the God of Thunder, controlling all thunder and lightning.

A sweep of the lightning brought forth a righteous power, banishing all darkness. He stood there, wielding the Divine Thunder, his grandeur akin to a deity. He held a thunder pillar and pressed it towards Pang Yuan.

"The power of thunder!"

Such terrifying might made Pang Yuan's complexion change drastically. He was horrified, and without the slightest hesitation, the Mana just swept out, but upon touching the lightning, it violently disintegrated.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Thunder pillars came crashing down one by one. Then, those awe-inspiring divine machine cannons within a radius of dozens of miles suddenly exploded.

"The Wrath of Heaven!" Innumerable people looked up at Chu Yuan.

"People say that the previous emperor died of celestial punishment, but in my view, the previous emperor might have encountered an irresistible powerhouse. As the Emperor of Dawu, I will investigate and restore the previous emperor's innocence!"

Chu Yuan's booming voice echoed throughout the Imperial City.

His current demeanor, seeming to control the heavenly punishment, was akin to a mighty deity, wasn't it?

"Long live the Emperor!"

"Long live the Emperor!"

Chu Yuan's formidable figure inspired the soldiers, boosting their morale significantly.

"Crush the rebellion!"

Chu Yuan's five fingers, each carrying a sturdy lightning bolt like a massive mountain, ruthlessly swept towards Pang Yuan. The accumulation of countless soldiers' morale seemed to transform into Chu Yuan's strength, making him unstoppable.

As the ruler of the Imperial Dynasty, he was naturally favored by the Dynasty's destiny, enough to transform it into his strength.

"Grave-digging Hand!"

Pang Yuan roared, his energy surging forth, stimulating his Mana, forming a thick layer of dark clouds, as if it could destroy the world. An enormous hand came crashing down.

However, when this hand touched Chu Yuan's lightning, it crackled and fizzled, like fatty meat being fried in oil. The Grave-digging Hand was instantly breached by the lightning, and the Thunderous Hand struck him directly.

Pang Yuan's armor was about to split apart. He violently coughed up mouthfuls of blood, and his eyes lost their sparkle.

His injuries weren't light in this encounter. The power of the lightning had already seeped into his body.

"Pang Yuan."

As Chu Yuan called out his name, a huge shockwave was sent rippling through their souls. He walked in mid-air, every step resounding as if he was beating a drum.

The dense thunderbolt around him made him seem unimaginably majestic.

The Human Emperor is supreme among mortals, his royal aura increases by 100% in front of the humans, and his deterrence is enhanced by 100%!

The Human Emperor is not just the monarch of humanity, he is also the progenitor of humanity!

Against Chu Yuan, who seemed like the progenitor of humanity, Pang Yuan, in fact, began to feel insignificant. He struggled and said, "It seems I've miscalculated. You've concealed your abilities deeper than I thought."

"Are you aware of your sins?" Chu Yuan said.

"Ha-ha, good birds choose their trees to nest. The great benefits that the Devouring Domain provide to me, why wouldn't I inherit it? Today's defeat does not mean eternal defeat. You deliberately prevented the commanders of the Eight Army Camps from coming here, which has provided me with an opportunity to escape!"

Pang Yuan laughed loudly: "Chu Yuan, the next time we meet, it will be the time when I lead millions of Devouring Domain's army to attack the Imperial City!"

He propelled himself into the air and attempted his escape by breaking through the city's gate.

If an expert of the nine-fold level wanted to depart, it would be hard to stop them, even for a ten-fold expert like Shangguan Qingyun.

"But you think you can escape, you don't stand a chance!"

Chu Yuan stepped forward, swiping his palm, and suddenly a dense network of thunder formed in front of Pang Yuan. The endless thunderbolts kept slamming into him, while the Devouring Domain's power encapsulated the space around him.

"You can't stop me!"

Flames of anger spouted from Pang Yuan's eyes, and he turned to deliver a punch.

But Chu Yuan had no intention of dodging. Instead, he chose to take Pang Yuan's punch head on.

The majesty of the Human Emperor was suddenly activated, and Pang Yuan's eyes showed a faint dizziness. The outcome could be determined in the blink of an eye during a battle between experts. Suddenly, he exclaimed inwardly, "Something's wrong, what's he going to do!"

All he could see was Chu Yuan's hand growing larger in his vision, even the air in front of him became a vortex.

"Get away from me!"

Pang Yuan pushed hard with both hands, attempting to push Chu Yuan away.

He didn't know why, but in this instant, he felt an intense sense of danger.

But at the moment of his push, Chu Yuan's hand had already grabbed his arm. A suction force started running directly, and the power of the Devouring Technique started to absorb and strip away Pang Yuan's strength.

"My strength!"

Pang Yuan could distinctly feel his inner power rapidly fading away.

"Devouring Technique, Devour everything!"

Chu Yuan was a Devouring God who would devour any energy that he captured. Despite Pang Yuan's struggle, he was consistently trapped within Chu Yuan's Devouring Domain.

Moreover, as Chu Yuan consumed more and more of Pang Yuan's power, his struggle grew weaker. In the end, his body completely weakened, devoid of strength, and hollow inside, not a trace of Mana left.

The Devouring Technique did not only devour his Mana but also his level.

"Bring someone, take Pang Yuan away!"

Chu Yuan tossed the Pang Yuan, who was now as feeble as a dead dog, away. Immediately, numerous soldiers from the Forbidden Army gathered around and took him into custody.
