The luck of the nation had been drained, utterly vanished from the Dawu Imperial Dynasty!
The Dawu Emperor was the first to perceive this change.
Although visually there seemed to be no difference, he could sense that the empire was now an empty shell, like a soulless man, devoid of its vitality, starting to stagnate.
He absolutely could not believe that Chu Yuan could actually drain the luck of the nation, but the cruel reality was already before his eyes.
Without the luck of the nation, it meant losing the blessing of national destiny. He didn't know how much time it would take to reconsolidate.
At this moment, his eyes were full of boundless hatred!
"Martial Emperor, you are ruthless indeed! You actually drained my luck of the nation. Even though I do not know how you did it, I ascertain, you will be my eternal enemy. The deeper the hatred today, the harder the revenge tomorrow!"
The Dawu Emperor's face was distorted, letting out a roar in anger.
At this moment, he even wanted to abandon the Imperial City and escape.
He knew, with Fang He being killed and the luck of the nation being drained, despite possessing the mighty Dawu Sword, it was no longer possible for him to continue fighting against Chu Yuan. If he persisted, he himself might likely perish here.
He knew better, Chu Yuan would not spare him. This time, he had thoroughly offended Martial Emperor.
To abandon the Imperial City was a tough decision. It meant becoming a traitor king, abandoning his own subjects.
But he had no other choice, death here or retreat first. He planned to go directly to the Suspended Imperial City and seek the aid of the strong ones in the Suspended Dynasty to restore his reign.
The Dawu Emperor, with the strength of the second Tier of God Position, twisted the void and in an instant was about to leave.
"If you don't die, Dawu's demise is not settled yet, and the purpose of killing a chicken to warn the monkey has not been fulfilled. Stop running, come to me!"
Chu Yuan watched the direction Dawu Emperor intended to escape and raised his fist.
Bang! The world started to shake. Without the protection of national fortune, even the Imperial City of Dawu had become vulnerable. His punch directly targeted the escaping Dawu Emperor through a distorted void.
Blood splashed in the sky!
The Dawu Emperor spat out a mouthful of blood, roaring, "Martial Emperor, are you going to fight me to the death?"
"To the death? You don't have the chance. Rather than letting you go find the Suspended Dynasty, I would like to kill you right here."
Chu Yuan seemed to stand at the center of the universe, his supreme power spreading fiercely, turning into lightning bolts that struck out.
These bolts of lightning carried Chu Yuan's powerful Mana, striking the Dawu Emperor. Even as a being of the God Position, he cried out in pain incessantly.
"Could it be that I will really die here? How is it possible? This is an impossible thing!"
The eyes of the Dawu Emperor were bursting with vindictive strength, like heavenly pillars. The rules of the God Position were swept out repeatedly, crossing the void and tearing apart Chu Yuan's power.
"In the eight wastelands, I am the only supreme one!"
Chu Yuan's move was exceedingly domineering, like the only emperor between heaven and earth, shredding everything that dared to go against him.
Even if the Dawu Emperor defended himself using the rules of the God Position, he could only succumb.
"How could this be, why can't I even escape with my God Position second Tier strength. Suspended Dynasty, what kind of enemy did you bring upon us!"
Seeing Chu Yuan approaching step by step, Dawu Emperor's hairs stood on end. Even as a high-level existence like him, to give birth to fear showed how oppressive Chu Yuan was to him.
"Die! You are merely a sacrificial pawn for the Suspended Dynasty."
Chu Yuan strode forth, mighty like the sky itself, his majesty indisputable.
"I do not want to die! I want to reverse the heavens!" bellowed the Dawu Emperor hysterically, full of regret for his previous involvement.
"You dare to defy me? Even a God Position has to die!"
The Grip of the War God reached out directly, Chu Yuan pounded it upon the body of the great Emperor. The terrifying power was earth-shattering, and although the Emperor roared and struggled desperately, it was all in vain. He was about to burst.
The Will of the War God!
The Grip of the War God!
Chu Yuan's giant hand firmly caught the struggling Emperor, subjecting him to judgement.
Innumerable people within the Imperial City watched as a golden hand grasped the struggling Emperor, their voices filled with desperation. Some even tried to fly out to save the Emperor but were torn apart by Chu Yuan's power.
The Emperor's entire body exploded, the rules of the God Position, several times greater than the first level, seeped into Chu Yuan's body along with a mist of blood essence.
Into the Devouring Vortex, a set of God Position rules and the Qi Meridian of the nation were also sent into Chu Yuan's body.
In an instant, Chu Yuan's soul glowed like a divine being, with a mysterious aura spreading out like primordial chaos.
The Realm of God Embodiment meant cultivating one's divine spirit, it was the sublimation of soul power.
Upon reaching this realm, even if the body perishes, the soul can exist for a long time and will gradually form a divine residence with the increase in mana.
After absorbing the Emperor, Fang He and that Qi Meridian of the nation, Chu Yuan's cultivation underwent a drastic change and broke through to the Realm of God Embodiment.
But Chu Yuan didn't seem surprised at all. Having absorbed two God Positions and one Qi Dragon of destiny, the accumulated energy was already enough for his breakthrough, especially the Qi Meridian of the nation, which was the national destiny of the Imperial Dynasty accumulated over thousands of years.
Every individual cultivates a divine spirit that has unique abilities.
Those skilled with the sword would cultivate a divine spirit with a sharp Sword Qi.
Those whose cultivation techniques are dark would have a divine spirit of darkness.
But at this moment, Chu Yuan's soul was the most powerful emperor, a conquering deity, the supreme being among humans.
His terrifying aura of supreme authority was released, and no one dared to resist. The only thought in their hearts was to submit, as Chu Yuan's realm and combat power was comparable to that of a divine being with the augmentation of the Sword of Man's Subjugation.
Chu Yuan saw people trying to escape from the Imperial City, with a flick of his finger their heads were detached from their bodies.
"From today onwards, there is no longer the Imperial Dynasty in the Sky-Dangling Domain, this place belongs to my Dawu!"
Chu descended upon the city wall, gazing at the panicked crowd.
"The Sky-Dangling Imperial Dynasty will not let you go, Warrior Emperor, you have destroyed us, the Sky-Dangling Imperial Dynasty will also destroy your Dawu!"
Someone howled at Chu Yuan with deep-seated hatred in their eyes.
"You won't live to see that day."
Chu Yuan flicked his fingers repeatedly, and the screaming people below exploded into a mist of blood. This was a war of extinction; the victor is the king and the loser is the bandit. Although it was merely a phrase, it hid a horrible amount of bloodshed.
Chu Yuan showed no mercy.
There's no justice in a war of extinction, only winners and losers.
"Occupy the Imperial City."
Chu Yuan gave the order, and the emblem of the Imperial City, the symbol of the Imperial Dynasty, was occupied by the Divine Warrior Legion.
The banner of Dawu was raised high on the wall of the Imperial City.
The heart of the Imperial Dynasty, the imperial court, was wiped out by Chu Yuan.
This signified the fall of the Imperial Dynasty!
"Ding! It has been detected that the host's national prestige has met the requirements for a four-star Imperial Dynasty, do you wish to ascend to a four-star Imperial Dynasty?"
[Option 1: Ascend to a four-star Imperial Dynasty, and gain three hundred Destiny Points.]
[Option 2: Do not ascend to a four-star Imperial Dynasty for now, and gain three hundred Destiny Points.]
