…
A single stone raised a thousand ripples.
Duge’s declaration had thoroughly pushed him and the Thorne Divine Tribe to opposite sides.
The Thorne God-king had flipped the table at that moment, his rage uncontainable, confronting Duge directly and threatening to shred him into pieces.
At the same time, he negated the claim that the Rad Divine Clan had helped the Ballard Clan steal the Origin of Mankind.
The Thorne God-king said that the Rad Divine Clan had almost been annihilated by the Heavenly Gods Clan, and it was the Thorne Divine Tribe that had timely intervened to prevent their destruction.
The Thorne Divine Tribe and Rad Divine Clan had always been allies.
Allies do not betray allies, so, according to him, Duge was simply slinging mud.
But in reality, what true allies exist between races?
Thirty years ago, the Origin of Mankind was stolen, and suspicions had persisted.
It was virtually impossible for Kaska and other downtrodden planets to break through the Thorne Divine Tribe’s heavy defenses and steal the Origin of Mankind, yet they had succeeded. If there hadn’t been help from behind the scenes, it would have been impossible.
The First Saint of the Rad Tribe, who happened to master the Way of Space, was always the primary suspect of the Thorne Divine Tribe, who had also been secretly investigating but struggled with the lack of evidence and not wanting to make the loss of the Origin of Mankind widely known. They refrained from declaring war on the Rad Divine Clan.
For once they waged war, the Heavenly Gods Clan would inevitably attack them.
With the loss of the Origin of Mankind and the Thorne Divine Tribe at war with the Heavenly Gods Clan, situated beneath them, the Rad Divine Clan stood to gain, fitting well with Duge’s theory.
But at that time, they and the Heavenly Gods Clan were inseparably intertwined in battle, and to drag the Rad Divine Clan into the fray would mean the Thorne Divine Tribe was not far from ruin.
Therefore, even though they firmly believed that the Rad Divine Clan was the root cause of it all, the Thorne Divine Tribe could only swallow their anger.
Once they retrieved the Origin of Mankind and ensured the continuation of the Thorne Divine Tribe, then would be the time to settle scores with all races…
…
The Thorne Divine Tribe’s friendly gestures toward the Rad Divine Clan were ignored.
The First Saint did not respond to the Thorne God-king about anything regarding the Origin of Mankind; he only announced one thing, appointing Joseline as the chief Regent of the Rad Divine Clan, responsible for all political and economic affairs of the Rad civilization.
After taking office, Joseline’s first act was to revisit his previously suggested notion that “when two powerful parties fight, the third party benefits”, putting it back on the agenda, and he requested a journey to the Giant Clan to seek an alliance between the two races, aiming for the greatest benefit in the war.
…
The Heavenly Gods’ God-king was overjoyed after seeing Duge’s stance and immediately declared he would send more people to support the Thunder War God and help the Ballard Clan and other civilizations oppressed by the Thorne Divine Tribe seek justice.
…
As the world situation became utterly chaotic, a new message quietly spread across the star network:
“Duge has developed a method to obtain all the abilities of the Origin of Mankind, and it is for this reason that Raite and Cheson have surrendered to Duge.”
“To obtain all the abilities of the Origin of Mankind is to possess the potential to surpass a God-king and become the true Ruler of the Universe.”
“Duge will eventually leave, and if one can grasp the method to activate all abilities of the Origin of Mankind before he departs, there is a chance to become the true God-king.”
“Alien Warriors with miraculous skills and keywords, by gathering more Alien Warriors and utilizing their combined skills, might stand a chance to defeat Duge and seize the Origin of Mankind before the Heavenly Gods Clan.”
…
“He who obtains the Origin of Mankind and Duge will rule the world.”
This proverb quickly spread across the star network within a mere couple of days, reaching every civilization with access to the star network.
For a moment,
all civilizations were invigorated. Caught between the colossal war of the Heavenly Gods Clan and the Thorne Divine Tribe, they had no standing to intervene.
Yet the talk of Alien Warriors gave them hope.
Regardless, it was worth the attempt to seek out Alien Warriors; with such magical keywords, they might actually manage to seize the Origin of Mankind from the clutches of the two major Divine Clans.
Opportunity is reserved for those who are prepared…
For a moment,
Alien Warriors dispersed among various civilizations became highly sought after.
…
The situation across the universe had rapidly descended into chaos within just a few days, and Duge was aggressively harvesting its chaotic attributes.
This time, the Multiverse was extremely powerful.
Pan-Universe Entertainment had created a scene on the Alien Battlefield that was somewhat too grand, and Duge always felt that many aspects of it were not quite normal.
But where exactly was the abnormality? He couldn’t point it out.
It felt as though Pan-Universe Entertainment had lost control over the Alien Battlefield.
Up to now, all the rules previously established in the Alien Battlefield had been voided—there were no more top ten rankings, no last-place elimination…
This was not normal.
To verify his thoughts and suspicions,
Duge decisively played his trump card, muddying the waters completely. In a pool of muddy water, all conspiracies and tricks would eventually float to the surface.
Moreover, his keyword this time was “chaos”: the more chaotic the situation, the greater the benefits he would gain.
Previously, Duge had never tested the limits of a keyword.
This time he also planned to stir things up…
The Origin of Mankind had created the Thorne Divine Tribe, but the universe shouldn’t have just one Divine Artifact…
Perhaps he really could use this universe to escape the control of Pan-Universe Entertainment, or even form a force to resist it.
…
Rad Divine Clan Temple.
The saints who had comprehended various Taoist Fruits were now unable to calm their minds due to the messy situation.
The saint who had comprehended the Time Tao Fruits asked, “Teacher, did you have anything to do with the Origin of Mankind?”
“No,” the First Saint replied, “I certainly have that capability, but doing so would draw the wrath of the Thorne Divine Tribe to us, which would not benefit the Rad Divine Clan. Moreover, the Thorne Divine Tribe also has a Main God who masters the power of space. I couldn’t silently send in the remnants of the Ballard Clan and steal the Origin of Mankind for thirty years without being noticed…”
He paused for a moment, “There exists within the universe a power unknown to us that influences the development of various civilizations. The individual who orchestrated the loss of the Origin of Mankind has more powerful control over space than I do.”
“Teacher, do you know who did it? Is there someone in the universe who has a stronger grasp of the power of space than you?” asked the saint who had comprehended the Fire Tao Fruits, astonished.
The First Saint said, “A hundred years ago, I sensed a spatial fluctuation; at that moment, I perceived the existence of another universe. By the time I got there, all the fluctuations had disappeared. It was at that time…
I realized that my understanding of the Way of Space was not profound enough. Only those who possess the power to break through the universe can truly master the Primordial Tao Fruit of Space.”
Hiss!
Everyone gasped in awe.
“So, a hundred years ago, you chose to gather us for seclusion,” said the Time Saint.
“Correct,” the First Saint said, “This time, Pan-Universe Entertainment’s invasion was silent; they deployed Alien Warriors without causing any spatial fluctuations.
This means, the technology or Divine Power controlled by Pan-Universe Entertainment far surpasses ours. The Daoist Ancestor was right; the keyword of Pan-Universe Entertainment is our opportunity for a breakthrough.”
“So, you let Duge slander you without offering any clarification,” said the saint of the Fire Tao Fruit.
“Correct,” the First Saint said, “The spatial fluctuation a hundred years ago left me bewildered about the Taoist Fruit, and the emergence of Pan-Universe Entertainment obscured my view of the direction of this world. All we can do is observe quietly and wait. When everything develops to its climax, perhaps the truth will emerge.”
…
“Duge, why did you leak the news about the Origin of Mankind?” Jannie asked leisurely, sitting beside Duge, “You know that doing so will bring us greater danger.”
Dark God Power enveloped the two, isolating them from everyone else’s perception, allowing them to converse freely.
“I’m not doing it, others would,” Duge replied nonchalantly with a smile, “Besides, since we’re not really planning to flee to the Heavenly Gods Clan, why not let me stir up the waters? "
“Have you already given up your keyword?” Jannie asked curiously, looking over at Duge, “What you are doing now has nothing to do with freedom.”
“I do what I want; isn’t that freedom enough?” Duge looked back at Jannie and sighed, “You’re right; I’m trapped by freedom—a puppet controlled by Pan-Universe Entertainment, what right do I have to dream of freedom?
Perhaps only when I truly break free from Pan-Universe Entertainment one day, I might be able to obtain the skill of freedom!”
