Chapter 2: Chapter 2 God-level Destiny Selection System_1
"The host is smart, each person represts one point of Collective Will of All Living Beings." replied the system.
"The Great Wu Dynasty was established thirty years ago. It has be blessed with good weather and prosperity. The population has long exceeded one billion. Shouldn't the second seal on the Human Emperor Sword have be unsealed?"
Chu Yuan expressed slight confusion.
"Some citizs do not belong to the Great Wu Dynasty; hce, the host cannot obtain their Collective Will." explained the system.
"I see."
Chu Yuan had a sudd realization, "Ostsibly, there are billions of citizs under my Great Wu Dynasty. Still, only sev hundred million are of the Great Wu while the rest belong to various lords, feudallords, wealthy aristocratic families. After the death of the previous emperor, these lords harbored rebellious inttions, probably proclaiming themselves as kings.
The audice did not belong to the Great Wu. If I wish to unseal the second seal on the Human Emperor Sword, I have to eliminate these lords."
He chuckled coldly, reminiscing about his experices over the past three years.
During the reign of the previous emperor, they were granted lands and resources.
The momt the previous emperor died, instead of safeguarding the Great Wu Dynasty, they broke faith and decisively stabbed us in the back. This left us struggling amid internal strife and external aggression, a situation that the Great Wu Dynasty should never have countered.
Eighte years of memories have be fully integrated into the laws of this world.
"Th exterminate all these lords and retrieve all the population!"
Chu Yuan chuckled coldly.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the title "Master of Thunder Dao "-- boosting the power of your thunder-related divine abilities by t perct!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the title "Supreme Being of Mankind"-- increasing your aura of majesty by one hundred perct in front of humanity, influcing and intimidating them by one hundred perct!"
At this momt, two extremely pleasant dings echoed in Chu Yuan's ears, causing his face to slightly change. He didn't expect to obtain titles after acquiring the Great Thunder Technique and the Human Emperor Sword- the choices made by this god-level Destiny system were indeed terrifying.
"Destiny Points can be used to purchase treasures from the store, and the host has three thousand Destiny Points. The system store is op."
"Shua!"
Along with the voice of the system, the word "store" appeared in front of Chu Yuan's eyes, who th instantly clicked to op it.
"Basic Healing Pill!"
"Basic Experice Potion!"
"Grid-Walking Steps!"
"Sky-Crushing Palm!"
"One-time Invisibility Talisman!"
"Soul Forging Pill."
...
Inside the store were dazzling treasures, a good hundred of them, causing Chu Yuan's eyes to blur.
"With ough Destiny Points, any item can be purchased. The opportunity to grow rich is now." The system reminded. "The purchased items can be stored in the System Space."
"This Soul Forging Pill?"
Chu Yuan touched it with his thought and instantly received all the information.
Soul Forging Pill: Five hundred Destiny Points per pill. A Soul Forging Pill can directly upgrade one from the ninth layer of the Meridian Realm to the Soul Forging Realm, rdering painful momts unnecessary and perfectly forging the soul.
"The host's realm is detected to be at the tth level of the Meridian Realm. Recommded exchange for Soul Forging Pill." The system voice reminded.
"Really? An instant upgrade to the Soul Forging Realm and the soul can be trained to perfection?"
Without a second thought, Chu Yuan immediately spt five hundred Destiny Points to exchange for one Soul Forging pill. Suddly, in his hand appeared a pitch black, chilling pill that resembled a deadly poison.
"Host, please take the medicine."
Thinking about the wondrous capabilities of the system, Chu Yuan swallowed the pill without hesitation.
Upon swallowing the pill, Chu Yuan did not feel any discomfort. Instead, he felt a cold currt gulfing him, and his soul seemed to have ascded like a feather. He was immersed in this feeling.
An instant later, the feeling disappeared.
"Soul Forging Realm!"
Chu Yuan's lips twitched slightly.
For others, breaking through to the Soul Forging Realm felt like having thousands of blades slicing through their soul—it was excruciatingly painful. This time, a simple pill allowed for an easy breakthrough; it was like comparing apples and oranges.
These pills from the system's store cannot be found anywhere in this tire empire.
"With my currt realm in the Soul Forging Realm, ev those in the Original Spirit Realm wouldn't be my match."
Chu Yuan gauged his own soul and indeed, it had be forged to perfection.
If you make a comparison, the soul of a martial artist who just broke through to the Soul-Forging Realm would be as soft as cotton, but his soul was as hard as steel.
"In addition to redeeming treasures from the system store, the host may use Destiny Points to boost his realm. For the Soul-Forging Realm, each incremt in realm costs five hundred Destiny Points. Furthermore, each choice that the host makes will grant him Destiny Points."
System spoke.
"Destiny Points can also hance the realm?" Chu Yuan's mouth curved into a smile, "Spd one thousand five hundred Destiny Points to exchange for three realm increases."
Th, he pointed a finger towards the consumption page.
"Sou Forging Second Level!"
"Soul Forging Third Level!"
"Soul Forging Fourth Level!"
A series of system notifications reached his ears.
Chu Yuan had just brok through to the Soul-Forging Realm and usually would take some time to stabilize his realm, but Chu Yuan directly spt Destiny Points to upgrade by three levels. It was rocketing at such a speed that it was unceasing.
However, he was left with only a thousand Destiny Points.
"Cultivating feels like riding a rocket. So exhilarating!"
Chu Yuan exclaimed.
"The host may op the personal panel to check his attributes." The system instructed.
Upon oping the personal panel, Chu Yuan's information was stunningly on display.
Name: Chu Yuan.
Idtity: Emperor of the Great Wu.
Realm: Soul Forging Fourth Level.
Cultivation Technique: Human Emperor Scripture.
Equipmt: Human Emperor Sword (Paramount Rank).
Divine Abilities: Great Thunder Technique.
Title: Supreme Being of Mankind, Master of Thunder Dao.
Destiny Points: One thousand.
Currt Main Line: Within three years, destroy the Great Submerged Dynasty, the Great Geral Shangguan Qingyun, the Prime Minister Li Yun, sweep across the lords in the country, unify all forces in the nation. If completed, reward??? if failed, vanquished into ashes.
"Compared with my previous life, this start could not be any more perfect, not only do I have the memories of three years, but I also have the system!"
Looking at the panel, Chu Yuan was quite satisfied.
"Your Majesty, it is time for the court meeting."
At this time, a shrill voice, similar to a drake's, came in, "Today is your Majesty's first real court meeting. The Great Geral, Prime Minister, the Chiefs of Staff of six departmts, sior officials from each departmt, and all the civil and military officials are waiting for your Majesty in the Divine Martial Hall."
The currt timeline is three months after the death of the previous emperor.
Although Chu Yuan had ascded to the throne three months ago, dealing with the tombmt of the previous emperor, the compsation for the various aftermath related to the three hundred thousand Divine Martial Army had left the various departmts of the Great Wu Dynasty in total chaos.
Usually, he would only receive the officials in his own royal study and had yet to hold a proper court meeting.
"[Option One: Attd the court and ascd to the throne, intimidate the sior officials with the might of the Martial Emperor, and obtain a hundred Destiny Points.]
"[Option Two: Refuse to attd the court, give the sior officials a taste of rejection, seclude yourself to study the system, and obtain one hundred Destiny Points.]"
The Destiny Points rewarded by the two options seem to be the same.
"Attd the court and ascd to the throne. Today is my first court meeting. I want to meet these ministers."
Chu Yuan made his choice. Although he had arrived in this fantasy world, he had not expericed a court meeting in this world.
"I know."
Chu Yuan announced assertively, "Eunuch Wei, prepare my clothes. I will go to the Divine Martial Hall right away to start the first court meeting of my Great Wu Dynasty after three months."
