2494 Little Cottage In the River of Destiny, First Generation Master of Destiny
The Infinity War had reached its climax.
Primal Kingdom and Pan Gu Kingdom sent their best soldiers to war, fighting each other in different universes.
Not only were the two kingdoms involved, but the other tribes across the Infiniverse also joined the battle by choosing either side.
Some tribes chose to stay out of it, but it was almost impossible. The scale of the war was too large to avoid.
Once the Overlord joined the battle, there would be no place to hide or run to.
Other than that, the Slaughter Kingdom also joined the war.
Since Liu Tianxue had become the new king, she naturally joined Chu Kuangren.
Although war was cruel, it was also a great opportunity for one to grow.
Multiple powerful cultivators were born from the war.
Lan Yu, Chu Hong, and the other Black Heaven Nine Stars, as well as the ancient ones from the Pan Gu Universe, performed amazingly in the war.
They were already seeing a boost in cultivation speed with Chu Kuangren's help, and with the Infinity War, their cultivation skyrocketed.
After Chu Hong fought against Primal Flame with Primal Phoenix, she came back and continued her cultivation, easily breaking through to the Overlord Realm.
Lan Yu made a name for herself in the war. She traversed across universes in the name of the Radiant Valkyrie, fighting off enemies from the Primal Kingdom.
She managed to break through to the Overlord Realm after multiple battles, becoming the first Overlord of the Radiant Dao.
Mingyue Wuxia, Three Clarities, Fuxi, Nuwa, and the others also saw great improvements and had always been the center of support of the Pan Gu Kingdom.
Besides that, Chu Kuangren got quite a number of good prizes from the Fantasy Roulette, and they helped the Pan Gu Kingdom a lot in the war.
The war between the two kingdoms separated the Infiniverse into two.
Several hundred years passed.
Chu Kuangren continued to cultivate the Destiny Dao. After many years of hard work, he started to see a chance of a breakthrough in his Destiny Dao, and the opportunity lay in the River of Fate.
With that, he decided to pay a visit to the River of Fate.
He summoned Lan Yu and the others to leave them in charge before going into the River of Fate.
The River of Fate was a profound and mystical place.
The river held the fates of all lives. Not even the first Master of Destiny could see through all of them.
Chu Kuangren walked on the river alone, searching through the fates of all life.
He followed his feelings and ventured deep into the river.
At the same time, in the Primal Kingdom, Reversal God was cultivating and sitting with his legs crossed.
Suddenly, his body released a bright burst of Immortal Sparks, and a powerful Daoist law energy erupted.
"I did it! I did it!"
Reversal God was extremely excited by his achievement. "My Fate Defiant Art has been perfected!"
The Fate Defiant Art was created to counter the first-generation Master of Destiny.
However, after the fall of the first Master of Destiny, Reversal God did not get the chance to perfect it.
Only in the final era did he get the opportunity to perfect the technique.
"Maybe this is fate as well. The first Master of Destiny may be dead, but there's Chu Kuangren. I shall use him to test my perfected Fate Defiant Art."
Reversal God grinned before he vanished from the spot.
He opened a crack in the void and entered the River of Fate.
He did not want to fight Chu Kuangren face-to-face.
He planned to destroy Chu Kuangren's fate first before going to him in person. After all, Reversal God was good at targeting people's fate.
Chu Kuangren, who had no idea that Reversal God was going after his fate, was wandering along the endless River of Fate, going where his feelings guided him.
He soon found himself in a mysterious place with a little cottage.
There was a little cottage floating in the River of Fate, which was unbelievable.
No one would believe it unless they saw it themselves.
Chu Kuangren felt tempted by the cottage. He felt like something inside was calling to him.
After a quick consideration, he went up and opened the door.
A blinding light shone from within, and Chu Kuangren was sucked into it.
Then, he found himself on a battlefield with countless cultivators fighting each other.
The cultivators from the Primal Kingdom and Pan Gu Kingdom were all there.
Lan Yu, Chu Hong, Gu Linglong, Three Clarities, and everyone was fighting the enemies, including himself.
He was fighting a man in golden robes and with golden hair, who was extremely powerful.
The golden-haired man might be the strongest opponent Chu Kuangren had ever faced or would ever face.
The man's name terrorized the past and present and was considered invincible.
One sliver of his aura could destroy universes and instill fear in all life.
Chu Kuangren recognized the man with just one glance — the God Emperor, the invincible and the oldest Primal God.
The God Emperor was much more powerful than he could imagine.
Chu Kuangren was overpowered by the man. Sword Twenty-six was useless, all his other cultivation techniques were useless, and even his three thousand Daoist laws were useless.
Every attack he did was canceled out perfectly.
In the end, the God Emperor launched a fist carrying endless God Emperor qi, and it struck Chu Kuangren, blasting him into a cloud of blood mist.
His body disintegrated into light particles and faded into nothingness.
Just like that, he was killed and died for good.
Chu Kuangren watched calmly and was not surprised by what he saw.
"Is this an illusion?"
"No, this is your future."
Suddenly, the God Emperor looked at him as if he had noticed him. The golden eyes were glued to him, staring at him deeply and condescendingly.
His words felt like a sentence, announcing the death penalty to all who opposed him.
"My future?" Chu Kuangren murmured.
He chuckled and then released a rampant qi. "I can defy the universe, let alone fate. I am the Master of Destiny. Who shall determine my fate?"
Then, the illusory battlefield he was on started to crack like a mirror before it shattered into pieces.
His surroundings changed drastically, and before he knew it, he was standing inside the cottage.
In front of him was a tea table with a man in white robes.
The man poured himself some aromatic tea, filling the room with its fragrance.
"That is the fate that I deduced for you. It shows that you will lose to the God Emperor."
"Is that so? I'd like to find out how he defeats me."
Chu Kuangren sized up the man before him and asked, "You're the first Master of Destiny?"
"I am."
The man nodded and then said, "Tea?"
"Thanks."
Chu Kuangren sat down and lifted the cup of tea. The tea was clear, but it seemed to have runes floating inside. Although the fragrance of the tea was unusual, he finished it nonetheless.
Suddenly, a strange energy erupted in his body and filled every muscle and bone. The Destiny Dao that he had been working on reacted strongly and skyrocketed.
