World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others -
Chapter 558: Real Human Emperor
The Eastern Emperor Donghua disappeared with Du Ge in front of everyone.
The Western Emperor was uneasy, glancing several times at the Central Emperor, wanting to speak but holding back.
The Central Emperor seemed oblivious, closing his eyes to rest, saying nothing. The more you say, the more mistakes you make; the Central Emperor was well-versed in the art of governance.
The demon king Lin Xiaotian's gaze was wandering, looking at the Central Emperor, then at the Western Emperor, wanting to leave but not daring, or perhaps unwilling.
In his heart, he believed that the Human Emperor's legacy should not end here. Seeing hope for the demon race's rise, he didn't want to miss this opportunity.
The Eastern Emperor Donghua didn't immediately kill Du Ge, which gave Ning Xianping and Feng Xuan a bad feeling.
As time ticked by, their hearts sank, growing more bitter. The longer it dragged on, the less likely Du Ge would die.
Especially Ning Xianping, whose ranking hadn't changed, indicating Du Ge was still around. What a terrifying guy!
...
As everyone was in turmoil, suddenly, a blur appeared before their eyes, and the Eastern Emperor Donghua and Du Ge reappeared.Du Ge was surrounded by Dao resonance, and the Eastern Emperor Donghua stood respectfully behind him, all his majesty gone, looking more like a disciple.
The Central Emperor was stunned.
The Western Emperor felt a mix of emotions, while Lin Xiaotian was full of joy, clenching his fists tightly. He had bet correctly; the Human Emperor's legacy wasn't so easily severed!
Ning Xianping and Feng Xuan exchanged glances, sighed, and no longer looked at the Eastern Emperor Donghua, but at Du Ge, saying in succession:
"Zhong Tian Star Alien Star warrior Ning Xianping greets the Human Emperor."
"Ziyin Planet Alien Star warrior Feng Xuan greets the Human Emperor."
The two Alien Star warriors had long identified Human Emperor Qingcheng as Du Ge.
Seeing the Eastern Emperor Donghua standing with him, they knew what had happened and naturally chose to align themselves with the new power.
Other Alien Star warriors didn't dare to gamble, but Du Ge's integrity was worth the risk.
Du Ge didn't reveal his identity when facing the Eastern Emperor Donghua, and they were happy to play along with Du Ge's act, a basic quality of Alien Star warriors.
"What are your keywords?" Du Ge glanced at them and asked.
"To the Human Emperor, my keyword is 'Pull.'" Ning Xianping said.
Pull?
In Du Ge's mind, the meanings of "pull" flashed: to draw towards oneself; to raise; to support; to collude; to involve.
This word had at least five meanings, both physical and extended. No wonder this guy had the qualifications to break into the top ten and become the Eastern Emperor Donghua's captive.
"What skill did you awaken?" Du Ge asked again.
"East Pull West Tug." Ning Xianping was particularly honest, "During conversations, I can pull unrelated people into the discussion, making them relevant to the topic."
What kind of skill is that?
A causality-type skill?
Du Ge was momentarily stunned and asked, "If you steer the conversation towards the Eastern Emperor, what would happen?"
"I think the Eastern Emperor should also be interested in the Human Emperor's legacy." Ning Xianping looked at Du Ge, smiled sheepishly, and said.
"With the Eastern Emperor Donghua's endorsement, he naturally can't be separated from the Human Emperor's legacy." Du Ge instinctively replied.
"If the Eastern Emperor also supports the Human Emperor's legacy, then four of the Five Sacred Mountains would be under the Human Emperor." The Western Emperor smiled at the Central Emperor and said.
"If he refuses, I'll lead the demon army to destroy him." Lin Xiaotian said.
"He wouldn't dare." The Eastern Emperor Donghua said.
After saying that, everyone was stunned.
Ning Xianping smiled sheepishly and said, "Human Emperor, this is the effect of East Pull West Tug. Without knowing the skill's effect, the topic would unknowingly be led astray by me, and no one would notice. As long as I want, I can change the topic's direction at any time. But once the skill's effect is known, there will be some awareness."
An indirect guiding skill, it can change the course of some things to a certain extent, can see through invisibility, and can increase one's influence through topics, enhancing attributes. It has some use in the world of cultivation, but not much, considered a chicken-rib skill.
Du Ge nodded and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"No more." Ning Xianping glanced at the Eastern Emperor Donghua and said, "Later, I was kept by the Emperor, with hardly any room to use my skill."
"You can try to develop it in a physical direction." Du Ge thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, your keyword won't be of much use."
"Can I stay?" Ning Xianping was overjoyed and asked.
"Of course." Du Ge nodded, "You know my character, truly help me, and you'll naturally live to the end. As for resources, it all depends on your luck."
"Thank you, Du... Your Majesty." Ning Xianping hurriedly thanked Du Ge.
"And you, what's your keyword?" Du Ge turned to Feng Xuan and asked.
"Reluctance." Feng Xuan said.
"Which reluctance?" Du Ge asked.
"The one everyone knows." Feng Xuan smiled bitterly, "Human Emperor, I haven't awakened any skills yet."
"Don't force yourself, just live well!" Du Ge looked at him, thought for a moment, and decided not to undermine his confidence, saying, "You can stay too, try to awaken Literary Heart and Martial Courage in New Moon. Once your strength grows, you might even be able to reluctantly challenge others. Don't lose heart, everyone has their use, and you might find the right way to use your keyword someday."
"Thank you, Human Emperor."
Feng Xuan smiled bitterly again, thanking him. No matter what, Du Ge keeping him was already saving him from the sea of suffering.
At least in the mortal realm, he could freely brush up on keywords. In the Eastern Emperor Donghua's overseas immortal mountain, the lowest realm was True Immortal. Besides forcing himself, who dared he force?
...
The characteristics of the demonic had long been exposed.
But the conversation between Du Ge and the others made the Western Emperor and Lin Xiaotian realize for the first time that the demonic might not be as simple as the world rumored. They frowned but didn't question anything in this setting.
When they stopped talking, the Western Emperor looked at the Eastern Emperor Donghua, while Lin Xiaotian looked at Du Ge.
Du Ge looked at the two and smiled, "From this moment, the Eastern Emperor Donghua is my Dao protector."
With these words, everyone was stunned, turning to the Eastern Emperor Donghua with surprise.
"That's right, from this moment, I will protect the Human Emperor's path and support the revival of the human race." The Eastern Emperor Donghua declared without hesitation. In the space he created, Du Ge had told him the subsequent plans, and he had become Du Ge's loyal follower.
Ning Xianping and Feng Xuan exchanged glances, feeling puzzled. Again? What exactly is Du Ge's keyword? Why can he always create miracles?
"Emperor, the Human Emperor is against the celestial realm, how should we respond to the celestial court?" The Central Emperor asked, trembling.
"Emperor, don't ask how to respond to the celestial court?" Du Ge looked at the Central Emperor and said, "The Celestial Emperor is nearing the twilight tribulation, and with or without the Human Emperor, he will surely unleash a catastrophe, slaughtering celestial beings to release their spiritual power back to heaven and earth.
When that happens, rivers of blood will flow, and the celestial beings and demon race stationed in the mortal realm will bear the brunt. Instead of worrying about the celestial court, why not think about self-preservation?"
"..." The Central Emperor was stunned.
"If the Celestial Emperor can be killed, the spiritual power accumulated over eons in his body will nourish the heavens." Du Ge looked around and continued, "With the revival of spiritual power, True Immortals can become Heavenly Immortals, Heavenly Immortals can become Golden Immortals, and Golden Immortals can achieve the Great Luo. The Way of Heaven takes from the excess to fill the lacking."
The subtle influence of "Tireless Destruction" was activated, bringing out the greed in everyone's hearts.
"But the celestial court is powerful." The Central Emperor said hesitantly.
"The human race is equally powerful." Du Ge interrupted him, "Literary Heart and Martial Courage don't require spiritual power. There are countless scholars across the five continents. If one in ten thousand awakens a Literary Heart, the human race can resist the celestial court's million celestial soldiers. Moreover, we have the demon race's assistance."
"Your Majesty, Lin will do his utmost to facilitate the alliance between the human race and the demon race." Lin Xiaotian was overjoyed and quickly expressed his support. It was settled; the demon race's rise was settled.
"Good, demon king, go ahead." Du Ge looked at Lin Xiaotian and nodded, "The Eastern Emperor Donghua and I will first integrate the human race. Once the human race's matters are settled, we will naturally visit the Demon Emperor."
"Human Emperor, Emperor, Lin Xiaotian takes his leave." Lin Xiaotian bowed to everyone, finally taking a deep look at the Dao resonance around Du Ge before returning to the Golden Throne Hall, leaving with several demon race protectors.
"..." The Central Emperor was full of doubts, but seeing the expressionless face of the Eastern Emperor Donghua, he swallowed all his questions. Even if he didn't like the Human Emperor, it wasn't suitable to confront him in this setting.
"Chongzhi, Daowen." The Eastern Emperor Donghua looked at the two emperors and instructed, "You two quickly return, integrate your Night Touring Ghosts and cultivators, and propagate the Human Emperor's teachings in the mortal realm without error. If you find any demonic, capture them and send them to the Human Emperor."
"By the Emperor's command." The two emperors accepted the order, each giving Du Ge a look before leaving separately.
In an instant.
Only the Eastern Emperor Donghua and Du Ge remained in the sky.
"Emperor, please demonstrate a miracle." Du Ge smiled at the Eastern Emperor Donghua, gesturing, then used transformation to return to the appearance of the Human Emperor.
The Eastern Emperor Donghua nodded, dispersing the clouds and revealing his true form above New Moon.
Wearing a purple-gold crown and a black imperial robe, with three flowers gathered at the top and golden light radiating, he immediately drew everyone's attention.
There were temples dedicated to the Emperor throughout the mortal realm, and the public naturally recognized the Eastern Emperor Donghua's appearance. In surprise, they knelt down, especially since rumors said the Eastern Emperor Donghua was the true inheritor of the Human Emperor.
Previously, the Eastern Emperor Donghua hadn't appeared, leading many to doubt that the Human Emperor was borrowing the Emperor's name. But with the Emperor's presence and the Human Emperor by his side, all doubts were dispelled.
"Greetings, Emperor."
"Salutations, Emperor."
The yin deities, City Gods, and Night Touring Ghosts hurriedly appeared to welcome the Eastern Emperor Donghua.
"Rise." The Eastern Emperor Donghua looked down and said calmly, "This Emperor is here to welcome the Human Emperor's return. Previous rumors were incorrect; I am not the inheritor of the Human Emperor, but his Dao protector. The Human Emperor Xuanyuan Qingcheng borrowed my name for convenience in spreading his teachings. Now that the Human Emperor has returned, all citizens should unite to support the Human Emperor and revive the human race."
The Eastern Emperor Donghua's voice was solemn and majestic, like rolling thunder echoing for miles.
At the same time.
Du Ge released the Sun God power, bathing the mortal realm in golden light, healing the sick and strengthening the healthy.
The miracle displayed was no less than that of the Eastern Emperor Donghua.
As the sunlight shone, a wave of exclamations rose below, with cries of "Long live the Human Emperor, may he live as long as the heavens" echoing endlessly. Many who were healed by the holy light were moved to tears.
Seeing this, Ning Xianping and Feng Xuan were dumbfounded. At this moment, they suddenly didn't recognize Du Ge. They couldn't find a suitable keyword to match the power he was displaying.
The Eastern Emperor Donghua looked at Du Ge with a knowing expression. As an embodiment of the Heavenly Dao with four types of Dao resonance, if he couldn't even simultaneously care for tens of thousands, he wouldn't be worthy of being the Heavenly Dao.
"Indeed." In the political hall, Chi Muzhi looked up at the dazzling figure in the sky, whose brilliance overshadowed the Eastern Emperor Donghua, and was moved to tears. He had long suspected that the Human Emperor wasn't the Eastern Emperor Donghua; otherwise, the dragon vein wouldn't have manifested on Du Ge during his coronation.
Yan Zian looked at Du Ge in the sky, his eye twitching uncontrollably. Was that guy really Du Ge?
What keyword could cause such an effect?
How did he do it?
Could this one have truly found the Human Emperor's legacy?
"The human race shall rise, and all compatriots should strive diligently to awaken Literary Heart and Martial Courage as soon as possible." Du Ge, imitating the Eastern Emperor Donghua, advised, "The fortune of the human race has fully revived. We must work together to overthrow the celestial realm's oppression and restore the ancient glory of the human race."
"We obey the Human Emperor's decree."
"We obey the Human Emperor's decree."
The response from below was uneven at first, but gradually, the voices became unified, forming a deafening roar.
The performance by the Eastern Emperor Donghua and Du Ge firmly established the Human Emperor's legacy.
With the people's praises, it felt as if a clear stream flowed into Du Ge's body, solidifying the dragon vein's shadow within him and elevating his divine power by a level.
The Eastern Emperor Donghua observed the changes in Du Ge and marveled silently. Fortune actively gathered; truly worthy of being the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao. Who knew if awakening the human race counted as sanctifying through fortune or through enlightenment?
But among the Three Thousand Great Dao, which path would he choose to sanctify?
At this moment.
The Eastern Emperor Donghua felt a sense of confusion.
...
Dozens of miles away.
Changning, a disciple of the Underworld Emperor, who had come from the underworld and mingled among the crowd, looked up at Du Ge and the Eastern Emperor Donghua in the sky. After hesitating for a moment, his figure quietly faded and disappeared among the crowd.
The moment Changning disappeared.
Both the Eastern Emperor Donghua and Du Ge's gazes turned towards where he had stood.
"Human Emperor, judging by the magic, it's a spy from the underworld." The Eastern Emperor Donghua transmitted to Du Ge.
"No matter." Du Ge smiled and replied, "Once the catastrophe begins, no one can escape it. The Underworld Emperor will eventually be drawn in as well. Let's go to your overseas immortal mountain, so I can study the cultivation methods and quickly enhance my strength to deal with the upcoming changes..."
"Good."
The Eastern Emperor Donghua responded, using the golden light technique to take Du Ge directly back to the overseas immortal mountain, leaving Ning Xianping and Feng Xuan in the New Moon palace.
Du Ge intended to make good use of the two Alien Star warriors, and the Eastern Emperor Donghua naturally wanted to give them the opportunity to grow.
After landing.
Ning Xianping and Feng Xuan looked at each other, with Feng Xuan incredulous: "Brother Ning, did Du Ge just leave us behind?"
Ning Xianping looked up at the sky and smiled bitterly, "Brother, find a way to brush up on keywords. Du Ge is no longer on the same level as us. If we don't make ourselves useful, we might not even have the chance to be used by him. Du Ge doesn't even need to lift a finger; just a word from him could end us."
"..." Feng Xuan swallowed, "With over three million mental power, I once thought I could compete with Du Ge?"
"Who didn't!" Ning Xianping looked desolate, "Du Ge always said he wanted to escape Pan-Universal Entertainment. He might really succeed this time. With his abilities, what Alien Star battlefield could challenge him? Being on the same battlefield as him is the tragedy of all Alien Star warriors..."
