Chu Yuan watched as three choices appeared before him. Instead of deciding imdiately, he opened the system shop. He rembered spotting sothing once while purchasing the Primary Healing Potion.
And soon, he found it!
Star Core Bomb: A rune bomb made from an exploding celestial body, it has a great force capable of decimating everything in miles around it. To get it, one has to spend four hundred Destiny Points!
This very item could annihilate armies within seconds.
By Chu Yuan's estimation, the crater before him was about a mile and a half in diater. With the Star Core Bomb, he thought, hmph!
At the cost of four hundred Destiny Points, his balance was back to zero.
Suddenly, a black bomb appeared in his hand. Small enough to be held in one hand, it was reminiscent of a hand grenade and radiated intense heat. Despite its small size, it was quite heavy, weighing about a hundred pounds.
The cost of a Primary Healing Potion for treating injuries below the Divine Realm was only a hundred Destiny Points, but this single bomb cost him four tis that. It was quite costly.
He took a step forward, made a few movents, and descended into the pit like a giant bird spreading its wings. His vision gradually cleared, and he could now see not a group of bandits but a well-organized army.
"Ding! You chose option three. You've gained a hundred Destiny Points, leaving you with a current balance of a hundred points."
"Soone has invaded the camp!"
"Who dares to breach our camp? What happened to our lookout? Why didn't they notice?"
"Could it be soone from the Dawu Court?"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! No matter who it is, kill anyone who dares infiltrate!"
....
The arrival of Chu Yuan was like dropping a piece of ice into a boiling pan of oil, instantly causing chaos. From within the camp, thousands of enraged soldiers, weapons in hand, rushed out to surround the intruder.
"Who are you?"
A sturdy man in red armor asked, his eyes sharp as he scrutinized Chu Yuan's face, pondering the identity of this young man.
"Chu Yuan."
With his resonant voice, Chu Yuan replied nonchalantly, sending a powerful pressure across the field.
"Chu Yuan!"
But as soon as the na had been spoken, there was an uproar. A man appeared before Chu Yuan, flying through the air. He stared at Chu Yuan with disbelief and exclaid, "Second Emperor of Dawu, you've actually left the Royal Palace!"
A master in the Divine Realm, this man's strength was at the first level of the Divine Realm—a level of strength which, even among the elite God-Martial Troops, qualified one to be a junior general commanding thousands of soldiers.
"I am indeed the Emperor of Dawu!"
As Chu Yuan George spoke, an aura of a Supre God surged out from him, coldly saying: "Jiang Ying, a brave and strong general by King Wei Wu's side. So, these so-called bandits an are just your diversion, and my thousand imperial troops died by your hands. Are you gathering soldiers here, ready to rebel and storm the Imperial City in the midst of chaos?"
"I was not expecting to be recognized by the emperor."
Jiang Ying laughed: "It is remarkable that the emperor has thoroughly investigated our arrangent."
King Wei Wu was indeed the most powerful of the eighteen Lords of the Dawu Kingdom, not only leading a large and proficient army, but also being at the tenth level of the Divine Realm.
Chu Yuan knew of Jiang Ying because, in his mory, Jiang Ying was the vanguard when King Wei Wu besieged the Imperial City.
"Hahaha, how courageous of the emperor, coming to Southern Mountain without any guards!"
Jiang Ying was excited: "Originally, the plan of King Wei Wu was to infiltrate the Imperial City and capture the emperor when all four nations attacked together. But I never thought that you, the emperor, would dare to show up in front of . It seems this great honor is going to fall into my hands!"
"Are you sure you can handle it?" Chu Yuan said disdainfully.
"General, I have never faced the Emperor of Dawu. Allow to test his power."
A brawny man, demonstrating the strength of the Original Spirit Realm, stepped forward with a grimace on his face.
[Choice 1: Kill all. A failure to kill even one would an defeat. Reward: one hundred Destiny Points.]
[Choice 2: Show up and leave. There is only one of him against so many. Barely maintaining a balance against several hands would be impossible. Award: one hundred Destiny Points and one Escape Talisman which doubles your speed for an hour.]
Looking at the brawny man, Chu Yuan beckoned him with a finger. "Co here."
"Hmph! The Emperor of Dawu is just a fifteen-year-old brat!"
The brawny man was still speaking when, in the next instant, he rushed at Chu Yuan with two enormous hamr weapons as heavy as Mount Tai, and launched a fierce attack.
"Don't kill him. Spare his life. I want to take him to King Wei Wu."
As soon as Jiang Ying finished his sentence, his face suddenly changed.
The mont the brawny man reached Chu Yuan, a palm appeared on his head, breaking his neck in a grotesque manner, and he dropped to the ground, limp.
"He is dead!" exclaid Jiang Ying in shock. "How can that be? King Wei Wu said Chu Yuan's realm is only at the ridian Passage Stage, and even with the imperial family's secret techniques to forge his soul's warfare spirit, he shouldn't be this formidable!"
"Your intelligence is outdated," said Chu Yuan.
"Surround him! Don't let this Dawu's second emperor escape. If he is captured alive, no one will succeed him to the Dawu throne. Our day to establish a new dynasty is close at hand! We are all dragons who have made ritorious deeds; our ti for being titled as Lords and Generals is near!"
Jiang Ying roared. If they could seize the Imperial City of Dawu, he would be one of the founding mbers of the new kingdom and enjoy eternal glory!
Imdiately, an army of three thousand soldiers sward out of the camp and encircled Chu Yuan.
"Let send you all to Heaven!"
Upon seeing the approaching soldiers gathered around him within a narrow radius of half a mile, a slight smile appeared on Chu Yuan's face.
With a push of his hand, sparks burst out and a tallic sphere smaller than a fist dropped at his feet. A puff of purple gunpowder smoke then hovered around him.
As controlled by Chu Yuan, the Star Core Bomb exploded instantly without any delay. The vast amount of sparks looked like a swarm of locusts scattering in the air; it was terrifying.
The mont the Star Core Bomb was detonated, a blast wave stretched out in all directions for several miles.
"Aaaaaaaaah!"
The army was caught off guard, and the whole three thousand soldiers were swept up. Having no ti to react, they had no chance of escape. When a Star Core Bomb exploded, even a split second delay was unlikely.
Blood and gore filled the air along with flying body parts!
In an instant, the area spanning several miles transford into an Asura Field hell.
A re dozen or so of the three thousand soldiers managed to stay standing, all strong individuals above the Original Spirit Realm.
The rest—those at the ridian Passage, Soul Forging stages—were all blown to bits. The powerful destructive force was not sothing they could withstand. There wasn't even a complete corpse left to find.
"This is the power of a Star Core Bomb!"
Even though Chu Yuan's expression remained unchanged, he was quite shocked inwardly when he saw the result.
Although the bomb was ineffective against those at or above the Original Spirit Realm, its effect on a wide range was impressive. If he had a dozen or so of these bombs, he could annihilate any low-level army within tens of miles. Even a million-strong army would be devastated.
