Chapter 583: Heavenly Dao's arrangement, not a drop of water leaks
"He put a golden hoop on us," the Celestial Emperor's face was ashen. "Holy Mother, to permanently resolve the Twilight of the Gods tribulation, we must rely on him. This is his way of ensuring his survival. He's got the ambition of a wolf."
The Celestial Emperor had always been bothered by the words used to describe him in the Human Race Daily, and he gritted his teeth as he applied those words to Du Ge.
The Queen Mother looked at the Celestial Emperor, remained silent for a while, and then said, "What is his purpose in doing this? To disrupt the world, planting the Twilight of the Gods tribulation among the world's top powerhouses, from top to bottom, he's offended everyone in the world. Isn't he afraid we'll fight to the death?"
"Holy Mother, would you kill him for this?" the Celestial Emperor asked with a dry laugh.
"I..." The Queen Mother hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "No."
"That's what he's betting on," the Celestial Emperor said. "I didn't believe he was the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao before, but now I do.
From beginning to end, he has been fearless. It's just an incarnation; if it dies, it dies. It doesn't affect his true self. If he succeeds, it will be a great gain.
He's wagering an insignificant incarnation, but he's betting on the future of all of us."
"Is his goal really to manipulate the keyword rules of Pan-Universal Entertainment?" the Queen Mother frowned.
"It should be," the Celestial Emperor replied."If Pan-Universal Entertainment ends this game early and summons him back, wouldn't it all be for nothing, and he'll have dragged us all down with him?" the Queen Mother said angrily. "He's truly despicable."
"..." The Celestial Emperor was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said, "I understand."
"What?" The Queen Mother was still in a state of anger, forgetting to use formal language.
"He's deliberately adding highlights to the game, extending the so-called Alien Star Battlefield time," the Celestial Emperor said. "The so-called becoming a saint, the so-called splitting the human race, all serve this purpose..."
"Everyone is his pawn," the Queen Mother murmured.
"The Heavenly Dao's layout is no different," the Celestial Emperor sighed deeply. "The most terrifying thing is that we know this is the script he set, yet we still have to act according to it. Otherwise, this damn Twilight of the Gods tribulation will accompany us for life."
The two fell silent.
Taking a deep breath, the Queen Mother said, "I wonder if the Dao Ancestor has been affected?"
"The Dao Ancestor is just a saint and has not transcended. I'm afraid he can't escape the calculations of the Twilight of the Gods tribulation!" the Celestial Emperor said uncertainly.
"How will the Dao Ancestor respond?" the Queen Mother asked.
The Celestial Emperor shook his head.
"How should we respond? Should we go talk to Du Ge?" the Queen Mother asked again.
"We can't talk," the Celestial Emperor said coldly. "Deliberately setting the celestial court as the enemy is to make this game exciting.
Pan-Universal Entertainment can watch the world through the Alien Star warriors. If we go to negotiate with Du Ge, everything will be exposed.
What's the point of a game without suspense?
Once Pan-Universal Entertainment forcibly ends the Alien Star Battlefield, there will be no solution to the Twilight of the Gods tribulation."
"Do we have to suffer this silently?" The Queen Mother became increasingly angry.
"Holy Mother, we are ultimately the rulers of the three realms. On one hand, we accompany him in acting, helping him extend this game; on the other hand, we seek the path of transcendence.
You and I have been stuck at the quasi-saint level for too long. Perhaps Pan-Universal Entertainment is also our opportunity to break through."
The Celestial Emperor looked at the towering Jianmu behind him, his pupils flickering with a faint purple, and said, "Once we find a way to break the Twilight of the Gods tribulation, it will be his end.
We can cooperate with him, but not in this threatening way.
An incarnation of the Heavenly Dao is not the true Heavenly Dao. If we can control him, why not make the game more exciting in another way..."
...
Central Extreme Continent, an unnamed high mountain.
In the middle of the mountain, there was a cave, complete with stone tables and chairs.
Twelve Alien Star warriors from Qi Yuan Star sat cross-legged, and in the center of them was an open stone book.
On the open page of the stone book, many golden symbols floated.
Upon closer inspection, these golden symbols bore some resemblance to the Dao resonance on Du Ge, but they were much simplified.
The twelve warriors from Qi Yuan Star were positioned differently, and from their respective angles, the golden symbols they saw were not the same.
The warriors from Qi Yuan Star were engrossed in observing the golden symbols before them, completely absorbed.
Below the stone book was a small pool, filled with thick purple liquid.
The purple liquid divided into twelve streams, merging into their bodies, rapidly enhancing their power...
Outside the cave.
A young man sat cross-legged on a floating golden lotus, cultivating with his eyes closed. Faint traces of Dao resonance could be seen on him.
As the Underworld Emperor and Celestial Emperor sensed the Twilight of the Gods tribulation, the young man's eyes suddenly opened.
He frowned slightly and floated down from the golden lotus.
As his feet touched the ground, the golden lotus seamlessly merged into his body.
The young man turned his head towards the direction of the Southern Zen Continent and murmured softly, "Twilight of the Gods tribulation? Who are you really?"
He shook his head and turned to enter the cave.
The moment he entered the cave, it was as if a stone had been thrown into a pond, ripples spreading out, disturbing the twelve people in closed-door cultivation.
The twelve people opened their eyes and, in unison, performed the same action, opening their personal interfaces and looking at the rankings, collectively sighing in relief.
"Master, how many years have passed? Why hasn't the number of Alien Star warriors decreased?" Gao Ming asked.
In this battlefield, he had possessed a middle-aged farmer in his thirties living in the Southern Zen Continent, with the keyword being imbalance.
He was the first to be accepted as a disciple by the Dao Ancestor.
At that time.
Promoting the Human Emperor's path in the Southern Zen Continent quickly made him realize that the Human Emperor was Du Ge, and he intended to seek refuge with Du Ge.
But the Southern Zen Continent was vast and distant, and with his pace, he didn't know how long it would take to reach Mount Sumeru.
Helplessly, Gao Ming could only first cultivate the keyword, hoping to quickly grow stronger, attract official attention, and be taken to Mount Sumeru.
He chose to focus on the imbalance of supply and demand, as well as physical imbalance.
For this purpose.
Gao Ming even created an entertainment project called the Swinging Bridge.
The goal was to let everyone who stepped onto the bridge quickly experience the joy of imbalance.
He even awakened a skill because of the Swinging Bridge, called "I'm the Most Swinging." When he swayed, no one within his field of vision could stand steadily.
Gao Ming used the skill to attract the attention of the authorities, but before they could come to him, the Dao Ancestor found him and took him away directly.
After that, the Dao Ancestor brought him many senior and junior brothers from Qi Yuan Star one after another.
Because the people from Qi Yuan Star were initially low-key, their rankings were not high when the Dao Ancestor found them.
Therefore.
When everyone woke up, they first paid attention to their personal interfaces.
"Don't worry, you've only been cultivating for less than three days," the Dao Ancestor smiled. "In the world, a day is like a thousand years in the cave. This is the law of time. Disciples, your cultivation time is sufficient. It's time to leave the mountain."
"Leave the mountain?" Yin Erchuan was stunned for a moment, only then noticing that his cultivation level had unknowingly broken through to the Great Golden Immortal.
"Yes, leave the mountain, go assist the Celestial Emperor, and conquer Du Ge," the Dao Ancestor nodded with a smile.
"Master, can't we not be enemies with Du Ge?" Yu Xia asked.
"Du Ge stands alone, and Qi Yuan Star now has you twelve Great Golden Immortals, far ahead of the Alien Star warriors from other planets," the Dao Ancestor looked around at everyone and smiled. "If you unite, it wouldn't be difficult to eliminate the Alien Star warriors from other planets in a short time."
Gao Ming and the others exchanged glances. Initially agreeing to be enemies with Du Ge was just a pretense, thinking to survive first.
But now that they had become Great Golden Immortals, they naturally didn't want to be enemies with Du Ge, who had greatly benefited them.
"Have you ever thought about what Du Ge's goal is, to get rewards?" the Dao Ancestor saw through their thoughts and smiled.
"To escape the control of Pan-Universal Entertainment," Gao Ming swallowed, suddenly realizing the Dao Ancestor's purpose.
"That's right. If you go to help Du Ge, this Alien Star Battlefield will have no suspense and will end quickly," the Dao Ancestor smiled. "All of Du Ge's plans will come to nothing, and he has exposed too much information in this world. You should know how Pan-Universal Entertainment will treat him once he leaves?"
As soon as he finished speaking.
The faces of the twelve Alien Star warriors changed instantly.
"Being his enemy helps him, being his friend harms him," the Dao Ancestor smiled and continued, "The reason I chose you as my disciples is because of this. People from other planets have already been subdued by Du Ge, and even if I forcibly enhance their cultivation, they don't have the courage to be enemies with Du Ge.
They will only think about ending the Alien Star Battlefield quickly, but you are different. The rewards of the Alien Star Battlefield are no longer important to you; Du Ge's dream is the most important.
So, I believe you will make the right choice. That's all I have to say, take care of yourselves."
After speaking, the Dao Ancestor's figure gradually faded and then disappeared.
Along with him, the heavenly book that everyone had just comprehended also disappeared.
However, in the place of the heavenly book, twelve golden plaques and twelve magical treasures such as swords, spears, and gourds appeared.
"Disciples, the twelve golden plaques are proof of being my disciples. With these tokens, you can gain the trust of the Celestial Emperor." After saying the last sentence, the Dao Ancestor's figure completely disappeared.
The mysterious aura in the cave vanished along with the Dao Ancestor's departure, leaving only the pool in the center still exuding a rich spiritual power.
"Gao Ming, what should we do?" Yin Erchuan asked, "Follow the Dao Ancestor's arrangement and help the Celestial Emperor fight Du Ge?"
"The Dao Ancestor is right. Du Ge's dream has always been to escape the control of Pan-Universal Entertainment. If we all go to him, the world's forces might instantly become imbalanced," Gao Ming said with a bitter smile. "If the Alien Star Battlefield really ends, that would truly harm Du Ge."
"During the Abyss incident, Pan-Universal Entertainment suddenly ended it once," Yu Xia said.
"Pan-Universal Entertainment clearly knows Du Ge's plan. Why haven't they ended the Alien Star Battlefield and are still watching Du Ge continue?"
A scholar-like Alien Star warrior said, "Don't you think this is a bit contradictory? Moreover, Pan-Universal Entertainment has been monitoring us. They should have known about the Dao Ancestor's arrangement immediately."
"Maybe Pan-Universal Entertainment doesn't take Du Ge seriously, thinking that in the end, Du Ge can't escape their control.
After all, in our eyes, Du Ge is very powerful, but in the eyes of Pan-Universal Entertainment, he's just a more skilled actor," Yin Erchuan said. "They want ratings. Us fighting against Du Ge is more interesting."
Everyone fell silent.
"Do you think Du Ge has a plan this time?" another Qi Yuan Star warrior said. "If he can really escape Pan-Universal Entertainment, will he take us with him?"
"There's no doubt about that. Du Ge's character would definitely take us with him," Gao Ming said.
"But this time we have to be enemies with Du Ge!" the Qi Yuan Star warrior said hesitantly. "We're helping the celestial court, we can't reveal our identities, right? What if, I mean, what if Du Ge attacks us seriously?
Gao Ming, I really don't want to be enemies with Du Ge. Actually, ending the Alien Star Battlefield early would be good. Maybe Pan-Universal Entertainment won't take action against Du Ge!
After all, he's so powerful, as long as there's an Alien Star Battlefield with him, there will be ratings..."
Everyone exchanged glances, falling into silence again. Du Ge's prowess was recognized, and if possible, no one wanted to be enemies with him.
"The Dao Ancestor is, after all, a native of this world. Maybe he just wants to use us to secretly plot against Du Ge!" another Alien Star warrior said. "We can't completely trust the Dao Ancestor either. Who knows what he's planning?"
"Du Ge rarely kills people," Yu Xia suddenly said.
"He rarely kills his own people, but he's ruthless to his enemies," the Alien Star warrior who spoke earlier said. "In the first Alien Star Battlefield, he killed everyone, leaving only ten."
This statement made the atmosphere in the cave even quieter.
"Let's go to the celestial court! It will be fine," Gao Ming raised his head, looked around at everyone, and said, "If Du Ge really attacks you, reveal your identity to save your life. But don't reveal anyone else, especially not my identity..."
"Gao Ming, I know you have a good relationship with Du Ge, but by doing this, you might really be accidentally killed by Du Ge," the Alien Star warrior who spoke earlier said. "At first, you can gain Du Ge's trust, but if too many people surrender, all using the same reason, Du Ge won't believe it in the end!"
"Without Du Ge, I would have died long ago," Gao Ming smiled. "If I can do something for him, I'll consider it repaying him with my life!"
"Count me in. You can seek refuge with Du Ge to save your life, but don't reveal my identity either," Yu Xia said.
"Count me in too," Yin Erchuan smiled and stood alongside Gao Ming and the others, saying with a bitter smile, "Damn it, I never thought there would be a day I'd be enemies with Du Ge! This messed-up fate..."
"You guys..." The remaining nine Alien Star warriors were moved, looking at Gao Ming and the others, speechless, with all words stuck in their throats.
"That's settled," Gao Ming looked around at everyone and said, "If anyone betrays me, and if something happens to Du Ge, I'll come after you outside, mark my words."
"Old Gao, don't say such discouraging things. We are twelve Great Golden Immortals, with a total of twenty-four skills. How many nails can Du Ge hammer with his iron body?" Yin Erchuan laughed. "Maybe Du Ge will be defeated by us!"
"Let's hope so!" Gao Ming reached for his token, then took down a purple gourd to fill it with the spiritual water from the small pool, saying, "This is good stuff, can't waste it.
Guys, don't think too much. The Dao Ancestor is watching from behind, who knows how things will develop later? Let's take it one step at a time!"
"Exactly, one step at a time," Yin Erchuan said. "We're living people, each of us learned from following Du Ge's lead, can't we adapt? Before going to the celestial court, we should complete our skills. Without skills, it always feels like something's missing."
"And we need to figure out what exactly Du Ge has been doing these days," Yu Xia said. "Our cultivation was suddenly interrupted by the Dao Ancestor, something major must have happened that we don't know about..."
