World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

The Spiritual Power Mutual Aid Alliance is brimming with talent.

Between Lan Ning Temple, Heavenly Demon Palace, and Bihai Palace, the major sects have over a dozen cultivators in the Mahayana Realm, and even more in the Body Fusion Realm. The combined might of these top-tier combatants is enough to conquer any large sect in the current age.

Not to mention Wang Chong, a super Mahayana cultivator who can take on ten opponents by himself.

When fighting against Lan Ning Temple, Wang Chong had to exert some effort;

But by the time he faced Heavenly Demon Palace, his strength was overwhelmingly dominant;

And when it came to Bihai Palace, it was a walk in the park. He didn't even need the assistance of other Mahayana cultivators—Wang Chong single-handedly took down Bihai Palace.

Mahayana cultivators like Zhuo Shao'an and Hong Ren didn't dare to act rashly anymore. They had never seen such bizarre and rapid growth. Wang Chong's demonstrated combat power had already surpassed that of the Mahayana Realm…

What about Buddha's disciples, Demon's children?

No one was competing for these titles anymore.

The Mahayana cultivators gathered around Du Ge now shared a common belief: if anyone in the world could break through the path to ascension, it would undoubtedly be Wang Chong.

As for Du Ge's habit of stripping people to perform surgeries on them, they now saw it as normal behavior.

Successful people, who doesn't have their quirks?

Besides, didn't he put all the organs back in the end?

Perhaps surgery was a way for Wang Chong to relieve stress as he grew so rapidly…

In short.

Whatever the strong do is right.

Along the way.

The Seven Stars Sect, Medicine Immortal Sect, and supervisory institution that had grown alongside Du Ge now looked up to him with great admiration. Little junior sister, Li Anjiang, and others even felt embarrassed to approach Du Ge.

However.

They didn't have time to flock to Wang Chong either, because Du Ge hadn't forgotten them. Whenever they broke through realms, he would infuse them with spiritual power.

Looting must be done, but nobility must also be maintained.

Selflessness is precisely a part of nobility. Every cultivator in the Spiritual Power Mutual Aid Alliance was the foundation of Du Ge's strength, ensuring he wouldn't lose his attributes…

For the current Du Ge, filling up those below the Void Refinement Realm with spiritual power was easy. In a place rich with spiritual power, he could replenish it in just a few breaths.

Most of the time, Du Ge's followers were in seclusion. Little junior sister had already reached the Elemental Infant Realm, while the seventh junior brother was heading straight for the Void Refinement Realm. As for Li Anjiang, he was already a big shot in the Body Fusion Realm…

In the past, they wouldn't have even dared to dream of such progress.

Therefore.

Even if Du Ge was no longer their third senior brother, even if he had deceived them with reasons like using medical skills for prosperity.

But everyone who followed him had no regrets. Such is the charm of a noble character.

…

Du Ge's influence was so immense that on the Alien Star Battlefield rankings, his title had long changed to the leader of the Spiritual Power Mutual Aid Alliance.

One day, while Du Ge was discussing with over a dozen Mahayana cultivators about recruiting Heaven's Path Institute into the alliance, Principal Liu of the supervisory institution suddenly approached Du Ge with a troubled expression: "Leader, Yan Country is in chaos, and the public is suffering. Shouldn't we try to calm things down?"

"Our current goal is to unify the entire cultivation world to seek a breakthrough. Why bother with those commoners?" the master of the Heavenly Demon Palace said impatiently, "Reopening the ancient path to ascension is a great fortune for every cultivator."

"…"

Principal Liu glanced at Du Ge with an awkward look and turned to leave, feeling dejected.

He knew that bringing up Yan Country's issues at this time would distract Du Ge.

But having been worshipped by Yan Country for a thousand years, he couldn't bear to see its people plunge into chaos.

Moreover.

The key point was that the chaos in Yan Country was entirely caused by their leader. If he hadn't initiated the idea of sects going public and issuing stocks, Yan Country wouldn't have descended into such disorder.

Principal Liu didn't even understand what use their leader had for all the worldly money he had collected?

The supervisory institution had the most members and was responsible for surveillance across various regions. They had learned from some men of chaos that people like Wang Chong and Dan Cong needed certain methods to enhance themselves.

Therefore.

By disrupting their businesses, it was possible to weaken them to some extent.

But with the economy that Wang Chong had built being thrown into complete disarray, their leader seemed unaffected and even more formidable, leading Principal Liu to dismiss this idea.

"Principal Liu, wait," Du Ge called out to him.

"Leader, your orders?" Principal Liu quickly stopped.

"Principal Liu, the situation indeed started because of me, but my intention was to improve the lives of Yan Country's people. Who knew those men of chaos would stop at nothing to strike at the public," Du Ge sighed, "If I just provide money to appease the people for now, I fear the country will still fall into chaos. My reason for wanting to quickly unify the cultivation world is to leverage its power to swiftly eliminate the men of chaos hiding among the populace."

Was he being rejected? Principal Liu sighed, "Leader, I understand."

"Principal Liu, how about this?" Du Ge changed the subject with a smile, "The supervisory institution and Yan Country's law enforcement will work together, mobilizing the public to report any hidden men of chaos. I'll tell you their characteristics later. As soon as we clear a region of these men of chaos, I'll send someone to reopen the stock market and credit services there. What do you think?"

"Of course, that would be great," Principal Liu replied joyfully, "Thank you, Leader."

"No need to thank me," Du Ge said with a hint of anger, "To be honest, I'm angrier than anyone that the business I've worked hard to build has been destroyed. It's one thing to target me, but it's unacceptable to harm innocent people. They've gone too far."

Dan Cong's eyes widened in shock, feeling a chill run down his spine. Was Wang Chong planning to help Yan Country restore order?

Wasn't he afraid of weakening himself?

Could it be that Wang Chong's keyword wasn't chaos?

He established the stock market, then allowed it to be sabotaged, all to unite the public and flush out the hidden Alien Star warriors?

This…

Such a far-reaching scheme!

But if not chaos, what was Wang Chong's keyword?

What was fueling the relentless growth of his attributes?

Economy, chaos, order, medicine…

Du Ge's experiences flashed through Dan Cong's mind, but he couldn't find a keyword that matched.

Without knowing the keyword, it was impossible to deconstruct and replicate Wang Chong's actions!

Terrifying!

If he couldn't decipher Wang Chong's use of the keyword and went back to the battlefield a second time, with such extreme disguise and frenzied tactics, probably no one could contain him!

Once Wang Chong spread his tactics and trained a group of similar warriors, how could other planets' warriors compete with them for resources?

No!

He must figure out what Wang Chong's keyword was.

Dan Cong clenched his fists quietly.

Otherwise.

Even if he obtained enough resources for his planet's survival by following Du Ge this time, it would all be in vain upon his return; he couldn't always be this lucky…

…

"Alright, I'll go and reply to the monarch of Yan Country," Principal Liu said.

"No rush," Du Ge stopped him again, "I have one more condition."

"Please speak, Leader," Principal Liu said.

"Tell the monarch of Yan Country that I can help him settle the chaos, but from now on, I want twenty percent of Yan Country's tax revenue to maintain the turnover of Seven Stars Mountain's shares and to distribute benefits to the shareholders," Du Ge said with a smile, revealing his condition.

Capital plundering was too slow; he had finally set his sights on tax revenue.

Du Ge wanted to see just how strong one could become by developing a keyword to its extreme.

"…" Principal Liu was stunned, "We cultivators have no use for worldly wealth!"

"The money isn't for me," Du Ge shook his head, righteously declaring, "After this turmoil, Yan Country's people have lost faith in the stock market. Once we reopen the exchange, there will likely be a run on the banks, leading to a loss of trust in stocks.

The industrial chain driven by the stock market can quickly prosper a country, so it would be a pity to give up. Only by tying stock trading to the nation can we rebuild confidence for the shareholders, quickly revitalize the market, and benefit both the country and its people."

Principal Liu frowned slightly and asked, "Leader, if there's a run on the banks, the funds from Seven Stars Mountain's industries might not be enough to compensate them, right?"

"No worries, we have so many Mahayana cultivators; we can just borrow some money from neighboring countries for the time being. They won't refuse," Du Ge said nonchalantly, "Once we get the turnover going, we can always pay them back…"

Plundering was also a fundamental part of Du Ge's base, and he couldn't lose that. Whether it's the cultivation sects or the nations, who to plunder if not them?
