Chapter 143: Chapter 143 The Three Star Imperial Dynasty_1
Chu Yuan's gaze hardened. After he had exterminated the Heiming Kingdom, the system had unexpectedly popped up with this option.
This was something that hadn't happened when he was promoted to a two-star.
He was well aware that while his national strength had reached three stars, his prestige had not. Much like having great power but remaining unknown.
However, by wiping out the Heiming Kingdom, Great Wu's prestige soared, triggering the opportunity to ascend to a three-star imperial dynasty.
Although the Void Territory was just a region in the eternal world, its vastness was immeasurable.
Though the number of one and two-star forces might not be as numerous as crucian carps crossing a river, when added together, there were still thousands of them. However, there were only about a hundred to two hundred three-star dynasties, and even fewer four-star dynasties, each of which was almost universally known.
In the past, the Great Wu was still a two-star dynasty. Despite its uniqueness, the attention it attracted wasn't much due to it being merely two stars. However, as it escalated to three stars, even the overarching imperial dynasty of the Void Territory would take special note of it.
To ascend or not to ascend?
"Ascend to a three-star imperial dynasty."
Chu Yuan decided to ascend to a three-star imperial dynasty.
The advancement of an imperial dynasty was not just about letting others know that your national strength had reached three stars. It was also a measure of prestige. The citizens of the Great Wu could proudly proclaim that they were from a three-star dynasty when they ventured out.
In this unspoken way, there would be an inherent deterrent effect on one and two-star forces.
All departments of the Imperial Court and all provinces and counties of the Great Wu set in motion, distributing the order to elevate their national strength to three stars. Like flakes of snow, an array of news disseminated.
Not only did this news spread amongst the neighboring countries, but it also sent the entire Void Territory into an uproar.
Although Chu Yuan's army had been battling the Heiming imperial dynasty for several months, not many were paying attention. Given the vastness of the Void Territory and its frequent wars, many did not imagine the Heiming imperial dynasty would be so easily extinguished.

However, news from the Great Wu proclaimed that the Heiming imperial dynasty had been eliminated.
"How could this be possible, the Heiming imperial dynasty only lasted a few months before they were extinguished?"
"Didn't the Great Wu just ascend to two stars recently? How'd they get to three stars so soon?"
"Many nations with profound heritage would have difficulty ascending to a three-star within centuries, so what exactly is the origin of this Great Wu?"
"There's no mistake. Several parties have gone to investigate, and indeed the Heiming imperial dynasty has been eliminated; Heiming's imperial city is now full of the Great Wu's flag!"
"The founding monarch of the Great Wu has passed away, the new reigning monarch is the Martial Emperor Chu Yuan. The Great Wu kingdom leaped from one star to three stars within a mere few years after he ascended the throne, a feat rarely seen. In addition, in the battle against the Heiming, many divine beings emerged, including several mythical beasts!"
...
In just a few days, the news had spread far and wide.
The leap from one to three stars was achieved in just a few years, a pace practically unheard of in the Void Territory. As a result, all attention converged on Chu Yuan.
But no one doubted that false news had been disseminated by the Great Wu. The bloody reality of the demise of the Heiming imperial dynasty was laid bare before them.
While the outside world was discussing this, the entire Great Wu dynasty was filled with joyous ambiance. Thanks to the significant number of treasures obtained from the national treasury of the Heiming imperial dynasty, the court was able to distribute an exceptional amount of resources.
"Ding! The host has made a selection. Great Wu's national strength has advanced to three stars, granting three hundred Destiny Points."
"Ding! Upon advancing the national power to three stars, congratulations host on acquiring thirty thousand Destiny Points, a Geng Metal Slaying God Flag x1, a Divine Ability Fruit x1, the second Yinlei Cave Treasure Map x1."
"There are even extra rewards for the advancement to a three-star dynasty. The advancement to a two-star didn't even trigger this; it seems that even the system believes that two stars are just a non-mainstream dynasty. Only a three-star is considered a force to be reckoned with."
Chu Yuan's face lit up with an immense grin.
That would mean, as the imperial dynasty raises a star level in the future, he would be able to gain a large number of Destiny Points as a reward.
Geng Metal Slaying God Flag: a top-tier divine artifact.
Forged by one among the ancient martial emperors, Emperor Gengjin, possessing the strength to annihilate devils and Gods.
Divine Artifact Skill: The Geng Metal Slaying God thrusts forward with overwhelming mana, bursting out with countless piercing golden lights. Amplified power could be achieved by invoking the Geng Metal Art.
As Chu Yuan casually waved his hand, a pole with a golden flag immediately emerged, like billions of golden rays converging, and the words "Geng Metal" were etched onto the flag face!
Yinlei Cave's Treasure Map: Map two, Collect five treasure maps to unlock the Yinlei Cave.
"What a splendid flag!" Chu Yuan could not help but exclaimed.
There was also a Divine Ability Fruit. Regarding its effects, Chu Yuan was already crystal clear. His primary concern now was which divine ability he would enhance.
The Great Battle Technique!
Compared to the other great techniques, the enhancement in power resulting from upgrading the Great Battle Technique spanned across all aspects.
As he consumed the Divine Ability Fruit, Chu Yuan seemed to be soaring through the ocean of battle, witnessing the battlefield of the ancient times, experiencing the terrifying fighting will, countless powerhouses slaughtering each other, and sensing the terrifying belief of being unbeatable in battle, conquering all obstacles in the fight.
The Great Battle Technique, born for battle.
When the effect of the Divine Ability Fruit was over, Chu Yuan's Great Battle Technique also advanced.
"Ding! The Great Battle Technique has advanced. The host has earned the title 'Battle Frenzied King'!"
"Battle Frenzied King: An upgrade from a battle Frenzied Man, a king in battle, understands the nine styles of the Battle King, each style more potent than the previous, accumulating to the ninth stroke, hence erupting the power 'No Kings in Heaven and Earth'."
"The 'Battle Frenzied Man' upgraded to 'Battle Frenzied King', and even the 'Battle Seven Styles' had advanced to 'Battle King Nine Styles'. The power of the seventh style was already terrifying; the force of the ninth style could even directly annihilate opponents like the Heiming King!"
Chu Yuan was energized. His judgment was precise.
"At present, My status is merely at the sixth level of Peering into God Territory. Just directly upgrade it to the tenth level of Peering into God Territory!"
"Burn Destiny Points, upgrade four levels!"
"Seventh in Peering into God Territory!"
"Eighth in Peering into God Territory!"
"Ninth in Peering into God Territory!"
"Tenth in Peering into God Territory!"
At this moment, Chu Yuan suddenly felt an overwhelmingly majestic surge of energy in the void around him. It appeared as an endlessly broad wave, carrying an energy so pure it surged into his body.
This energy seemed to be obtained through an exchange. Chu Yuan used Destiny Points to draw this energy from the rivers of predestined karma in the vastness of the void.
"This is an exchange of some sort of power."
Chu Yuan carefully savored this transforming energy. After consuming sixteen thousand points, his status had been elevated to the tenth level in Peering into God Territory.
To break into the Illuminating God Territory, he could not use Destiny Points to advance.
The promotion of the imperial dynasty to three stars brought enormous benefits to Chu Yuan. It directly boosted his rank to the tenth level in Peering into God Territory, just one step away from breaking into the Illuminating God Territory and illuminating his divine path.
With the increased attributes of the Imperial Sword, Chu Yuan is as powerful as those at the tenth level of Illuminating God Territory in terms of his divine ranking alone. With the variety of measures at his disposal, he could deal with even the powerhouses in the realm of Concealed Divinity.
The most crucial task now is to break through to the Illuminating God Territory and use the remaining Destiny Points to further advance in leaps and bounds within this minor realm.
"Draw up a decree. Issue my order: all who've contributed in this war of elimination are to be grandly rewarded. Loyal Valor Marquis has devotedly served the empire for many years. Grant him the title of King, bestowing upon him the title Loyal Valor King. As for the God Martial Army, the five major armies, and the Beast Corps, depending on their military merit, they are to be promoted and ennobled.
The greater the contributions, the more they'll be blessed by the destiny of Great Wu!"
Chu Yuan's order was issued to each army stationed far away in the Heiming Imperial City.
