Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

The Demon Abyss is incredibly vast, unimaginably long, and spans more than just the Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty.

The distance on both sides is also very wide.

Terrible black Qi emanates from the Demon Abyss, darkening the entire sky as if it has arrived in the demon world, and black flames continuously spurt from the bottom of the abyss.

This abyss divides the Great Wu army and the Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty, leaving them only capable of looking at each other from afar.

This is a natural defensive line, filled with a unique power, and a space barrier exists. Any power that bombards the Demon Abyss will be obstructed.

At this moment, the retreating army of the Demon Abyss has gathered on one side of the abyss, poised as the defenders against the attack of the Great Wu Dynasty's army.

"The Demon Abyss."

A rare solemnity appeared on Ning Xiuchen's face: "This abyss spans an endless distance across the eternal great world, permeated with a terrifying power. It is rumored that peerless demonic creatures are sealed here. Even the mysterious gods who venture into the deepest part of the Demon Abyss need to be extremely careful.

As they cannot shuttle through the void here; flying above the Demon Abyss drains twice the usual amount of mana."

"This Demon Abyss."

Lu Qian swung his hand, prompting men to bring in several heavenly calamity cannons.

Immediately, the cannons fired, and endless black Qi spread within the Demon Abyss, as if conjuring images resembling demon gods.

However, by the time they reached the opposite bank, their power had been reduced by at least half.

"It's reduced by half; the power of the cannons is greatly compromised. If we want to reach the other side, we can only launch a full-scale assault, but the loss will be immeasurable," he concluded.

Lu Qian knew well that the greatest strength of Great Wu lay in their cannons.

The Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty intentionally selected this location for a decisive battle, aiming to neutralize the threat of their cannons by using the natural defensive line.

The Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty could afford to delay, but Great Wu could not.

If the army is halted, the other clans will surely take action.

"Prepare the whole army and report the news to His Majesty. My command has been issued and I must be ready for the attack at any moment," Lu Qian ordered.

...

Within the military strategy department of the Demon Abyss.

For the Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty, they could afford to abandon their cities and territories—except for the Demon Abyss.

"Your Majesty, the Great Wu army has arrived opposite the Demon Abyss. Although they have not launched a full-scale assault, their army is continuously gathering."

The Demon Abyss Ruler sat in the strategy department, his face impassive.

He was the one who ordered the entire army's deployment to the Demon Abyss.

"The Demon Abyss cannot be breached. More than eighty percent of our country's army must defend the abyss. If it is not broken, the Great Wu Dynasty cannot intrude into our territory. If it is breached, only the Imperial City is left as the final defensive line, so this battle is a decisive one against Great Wu!" he declared.

The Demon Abyss Ruler understood very well: if their defense was pushed back to the Imperial City, the risk of their country's destruction would be imminent.

"Your Majesty, I swear I will defend the Demon Abyss to the death. The Celestial Gods have all gone to the Demon Abyss, we will absolutely not let the Great Wu army cross a single step!" the ministers declared their stance.

"No, this is not enough. As this war is decisive, I will personally sit in the Demon Abyss to confront the Martial Emperor of Great Wu."

The Demon Abyss Ruler stood up and said coldly: "After I leave the Imperial City, the Crown Prince shall supervise the country's affairs. If any accident happens to me, the Crown Prince should immediately succeed to the throne and may even lead the royal family away from the Abyss in order to preserve the royal lineage."

"Your Majesty, is it really that severe?" a minister asked bleakly.

"We have to consider the worst-case scenario. If the Demon Abyss cannot hold up, neither will the Imperial City," he answered.

The Lord of the Demon Abyss said, "This will be an extremely difficult battle, and I'm not even sure what cards the Martial Emperor still keeps up his sleeve."

Though the Demon Abyss serves as a natural fortress, the Lord of the Demon Abyss does not believe that this fort can entirely hold back the forces of Dawu; Jinan City, for example, was quickly conquered.

The Lord of the Demon Abyss leads the battle personally, overseeing the Demon Abyss himself. This news spread like wildfire, a testament to the severity of the situation.

"The Demon Abyss is naturally unbreachable with swirling demonic qi that is truly terrifying. It would be incredibly hard to push through without overwhelming force."

"Even if we manage to push through, the casualties would be severe, but I haven't even included Dawu in my predictions."

"In the battle of Jinan City, Dawu unleashed a bizarre Celestial God being. It was this being that breached the city walls, allowing Dawu to advance all the way to the Demon Abyss."

"Dawu's elite forces consist of the Divine Martial Army, the Demon Army, and a newly emerged Doomsday Army. Besides, terrifying legions like the Divine Army still stand by the Martial Emperor's side."

...

This battle is being watched by countless forces around. Managing to force an entire nation to retreat to their lines of defense, unable to retaliate, Dawu is truly formidable.

Recently, there have been too many major events happening in the Eternal World.

The people of the Everlasting Empire, which vanished in ancient times, have reappeared from the Forbidden Everlasting Area and are already at war with the Holy Sky Empire.

Here, Dawu is fighting fiercely with the Demon Abyss.

At this moment, no force dares to intervene in this war, not even the powerful Tianhong Clan. They all know that the Lord of the Demon Abyss is leading the battle personally, and Dawu's forced assault will surely come at a severe price.

They all want to wait until both sides are severely injured.

Moreover...

Their greatest fear is the Martial Emperor.

The Martial Emperor is a man who either stays inactive or causes profound shock with every move he makes.

Without witnessing his combat power for themselves, no one dares to act rashly.

"The Lord of the Demon Abyss is campaigning personally and overseeing the Demon Abyss. Is he suggesting an imminent decisive battle?"

Chu Yuan had also received the news from the front line.

This time, the Demon Abyss Dynasty voluntarily gave up a large amount of territory. By having the Lord of the Demon Abyss personally oversee the Demon Abyss, their intent is to be heavily wounded along with Dawu.

"Your Majesty, the Loyal and Brave King has prepared the battle formation. But given the strangeness of the Demon Abyss, the strength of our heavy artillery will be reduced by the demonic qi. Now, the Loyal and Brave King dares not to attack casually. The longer the stalemate, the more likely the soldiers will get restless."

Someone reported to Chu Yuan.

"Hmm, it's true that we can't prolong the stalemate at the Demon Abyss. We must disperse the demonic qi and make a passage that the army cannot block."

Chu Yuan's finger slowly tapped on the table, "The Lord of the Demon Abyss is campaigning personally. Seems I can't just sit back and watch the battlefield from behind. Pass on my order, tell the Loyal and Brave King to be prepared. He must not take any action before I arrive. I will also campaign personally. We are going into a battle between emperors!"

If the Lord of the Demon Abyss did not campaign personally, Chu Yuan would not have either.

But now that the Lord of the Demon Abyss has acted, Chu Yuan couldn't possibly stand still. He must also station himself in the Demon Abyss.

"The Demon Abyss Dynasty must be destroyed. Even this formidable natural fort, I will flatten it!"

Chu Yuan opened the void with his formidable mana, and directly passed through it.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

The news of Chu Yuan's personal campaign was not a secret. The army stationed in the Demon Abyss had been waiting for a long time. As soon as they saw the distinguished figure emerging from the void, they all greeted him.

"You may rise."

Upon arriving at the Demon Abyss, Chu Yuan looked ahead with his eyes, "So this is the Demon Abyss. It's indeed a formidable natural fort. But it cannot stop my determination to destroy the Demon Abyss Dynasty. The Lord of the Demon Abyss is right there. I am going to have a decisive battle with him."
