This time, the emperor who appeared in front of Aaron felt a little strange.

Compared to Aaron's impression of the sacred, glittering golden face, covered with endless miracles and light, only half of the emperor's body and half of his face were in this state, while the other half of the emperor was in a gray appearance, his facial features were still divine and handsome, but no longer shrouded in golden light, his hair was still black and shiny, but not as full of vitality as when he once walked on the earth, on the contrary, there was an indescribable energy covering half of the emperor's body.

What is that?

Aaron carefully examined the energy above the Emperor's form.

What's that, the spark of divinity? Subspace energy? Priesthood? Or does it represent the secret of the birth of the emperor...... Origin?

Aaron didn't know that the existence of the emperor in front of him had surpassed Aaron's understanding, and the complexity of this energy was beyond Aaron's knowledge, he couldn't parse the changes that appeared in the emperor's body, and he couldn't use the power of chaos to analyze the source of these existences.

There was a voice in his heart warning him, danger, very, very dangerous, don't come close.

The emperor's body was cold.

It was very cold, and this cold was a systematic shock that froze his bones, chilled his soul, and numbed his mind.

The icy white flames burned along the half of the Emperor's body covered in pale energy, and the Lord of Humanity was looking at him, but Aaron couldn't see any emotion in the slightest from the half of the Pale Emperor's face, and it wasn't until Aaron looked at the half of the Golden Emperor that he finally saw a familiar expression on his face.

If the original human lord represents extreme rationality and wisdom, then there is not even reason left on the pale side, and all Aaron can feel is "nothing", and a blurry picture flashes before his eyes, the once magnificent and magnificent Slaanesh Theater that spans hundreds of star fields is now only charred rubble wrapped in white ashes.

The Prince of Darkness had a white sword in his chest and died on his throne of the Six Rings.

The sky was black, and in every direction there were traces of lightning, whipping, flickering, moving, burning, and utterly silent. It was as if he were alone on the Arctic plains, under the cover of night, in the stillness of a great storm that had formed around him and stopped.

No, there's no ***, there's no iniquity, it's all over.

There are no stars. The sweeping scenery emitted a languid white smoke. The cold air was filled with withered volcanic ash, and particles of energy in the darkness shimmered like electric sparks.

The Emperor's state reminded Aaron of the Night Lady Shar, who and the Pale Emperor had similar visions in their eyes—the cold and infinite void, the utterly dark and lonely universe, and the completely still, silent space-time.

Lord of Darkness?

"Where are we, Your Majesty?" Aaron looked around and found that they were standing in a void, not far away, a series of silver steps were located in the middle of the Great Wheel Universe, looking upwards Aaron could see at least 20,000 meters away the stairs that continued to go up, and down was also a spiral that continued to descend 20,000 meters away.

"The gates of hell." The Pale Emperor and the Golden Light Emperor spoke at the same time, their voices strangely forming an ensemble: "In the ancient Terra language, this place is called Yggdrasil, the World Tree of Norse Europa mythology, which runs through the multiverse plane from top to bottom, and through the path formed by the trunk, people can use it to set off to other universes or other planes, in the realm, it is also called the 'Endless Ladder'."

"I see, I've heard about the Endless Ladder from some books...... How magnificent." Aaron looked at the miracle building in the void: "May this trip finally reach the stars."

"You're better than I thought you would, pull." The Emperor's voice carried two emotions at the same time, one was completely empty and dry, and the other was cold with a slight appreciation: "I never thought that you would choose to release Dorne's Chaos Origin and let him reincarnate, which may not be the ending I expected, but it is this uncertainty that proves that I did not choose the wrong person, pull, I am very happy."

"If only there was more proof of your happiness.

Aaron's perspective saw that the Pale Emperor was always in a state of "no anger", and he struggled to find a familiar figure among the other half of the Golden Light Emperor: "So, this is actually your origin...... Lord of Darkness?"

"Chaos Bamang, only four gods." The emperor spoke: "Before the birth of Slaanesh, there were only three gods, Ra, we have always been wrong, we mistakenly thought that there were only four gods of Chaos, and the birth of Slaanesh represented the completion of the realm of Chaos, and since then a stable quadrilateral structure has been formed."

"We're all wrong, pull, since Chaos can use an entire Spirit Empire as a trigger and trigger to create a Chaos God, is it possible that Chaos can also use an entire Human Empire as a trigger and trigger to create another Chaos God?"

"It was never what I wanted, I never thought about betrayal, we created an era together. But you have betrayed me, betrayed me as a human being...... Let the sea of stars boil, let the stars fall, and if I can't save it from your failure, father, then let the galaxy burn." Aaron replied to the emperor in Horus's original words.

"There has always been a vacant chair in the Pantheon of Chaos with a label that reads 'Destruction, that chair has been waiting for me...... Horus was convinced that I would sacrifice the Human Empire to ascend to the throne of God, and the Primordial and the Praetorian Army often criticized Horus for not being strong enough in his faith, and he easily believed in the illusion of Chaos, and chose to betray." The Emperor nodded indifferently, and he showed the illusion to Aaron, "But is it possible that Horus has my genes in him? Is it possible that of all the primordials, Horus is the closest to me, so he is convinced of this illusion?"

"Because he knows it's true!" Aaron's eyes widened, "It is precisely because he is the closest to you, his genes are the most perfect, he has experienced life and death with you in Ulanor, and witnessed your infinite power with his own eyes, so he knows that this is true?"

"Exactly." The Emperor nodded indifferently, "It is precisely because he is most like me, and most closely related to me, that Horus was able to peek into one of my truths in my thousands of lies, and perhaps Conrad, but his genetic defects themselves represent my destructive side."

"The emperor must be brilliant, he must be supreme, but this is only your side...... The side you showed to the Empire of Humanity." Aaron hesitated for a moment, then said tentatively, "Is the pale, the destroyer, the dark, the silent, the nothing, the real you?"

"Yes and no." The Emperor thought for a moment, "Ancient Europa of Terra once had a very famous battle called the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest."

"The ancient Roman Empire conquered Gaul under the military miracle of Caesar, the Black Forest of the Germanic people was forced to bend the sun of the Apennine Peninsula, and a large number of children of the Germanic nobility entered Rome to serve and learn how to be a pure Roman."

"One of them, named Arminius, was the son of the western tribe of Cherus, who served in the Roman army, was a good soldier, a brave warrior, and became the captain of the Germanic auxiliary cavalry, and the most trusted lieutenant of the governor and captain of the Rhine army, Varus."

Aaron knew that "Arminius had already received the status of an honorary Roman, received the most complete Roman education, and was Varus's most trusted lieutenant, but he betrayed Varus as a Roman citizen and finally annihilated Varus and his three most elite Roman legions at the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest."

"Arminius was destined to serve ancient Rome as an honorary Roman knight until he personally returned to the Black Forest of Germany and witnessed Varus conquer the Germanic people in the name of Rome, and I, who was destined to sit on the throne of the Lord of Darkness and become a member of the Pantheon of Chaos, came to Terra and witnessed the miracle of the human race and the destruction brought about by Chaos." The Emperor said lightly, "So, from that moment on, I decided that I would not become the Lord of Darkness, I would only become the Lord of Mankind."

"And how did you win your battle for the Teutonic Forest?" Aaron got it perfectly.

Converts fanaticism, converts fanaticism?!

Aaron had a hard time putting the word

He is so divine, so great, that he has led humanity, dragged this race back from the brink of destruction, and single-handedly recast humanity to its glory again.

The side he presents to humanity is pure and majestic like the Chosen One, but underneath his disguise is the ultimate darkness destined to become the Fifth God of Chaos.

Throw away all the mistakes, and the most unlikely option is the answer.

Humanity has moved the gods of chaos!

"There will be no winner in the duel with Horus, the duel on the Vengeful Spirit is the Dark King's enthronement ceremony, if I defeat Horus, I will ascend to the god, if Horus defeats me, then Horus, who has my genes in his body and inherited my power, will become the Lord of Darkness." The golden light on the emperor's body gradually faded, leaving only a phantom of nothingness: "In any case, the enthronement ceremony will be completed, before Chaos used the Spirit Empire as a trigger to make Slaanesh born in the eyes of fear, then now with the Human Empire as a medicine, the Lord of Darkness will also return to his throne."

For the first time, the emperor revealed his true nature to Aaron.

A huge black sphere seemed to sit in the vast depths of the universe, its scale impossible to judge, it was like a polished black moon resting at the end of the universe, white ring-like halos burning on its jet-black surface, silent lightning reflecting off its smooth shell.

Although the sphere is flowing black, it is the source of all light, it is dazzlingly black, so dazzling that Aaron cannot look at it directly, it represents "nothing", a symbol of chaos and self-destruction, the final end of the universe - the tranquility and nothingness that follows the heat death.

"The victory in the duel made me about to ascend to the gods, and I was seriously injured and dying, and in this weakened state, the enthronement ceremony could not continue, and it was at this moment that the Golden Throne played its original role—absorbing the divine power that I had begun to overflow." The Emperor reverted back to the appearance of a six-meter-tall Ancient Asian Minor man who was used to confuse mortals: "If I use the balance of human faith for 10,000 years to fill my body, I will ascend, but I will not ascend, I will die, but I will not die, then the Lord of Darkness will not be born."

"You must be a top programmer." Aaron couldn't help but praise, "No wonder you easily conquered the oil guys of Mars, and revered you as the embodiment of Omnisaiah! Your Majesty, you have found the only possibility, a paradox, a bug."

"But this state of affairs cannot last forever." The Emperor remained expressionless, he only nodded in approval: "Whether it is ascending to the gods to become the Lord of Darkness, or further filling the self with the power of the subspace projection formed by the people's faith in me, the balance will eventually collapse, and at that time, whether it is the Lord of Darkness or the Human God Emperor who rises on the Golden Throne, the rotten and shriveled body on the throne will have nothing to do with humanity."

"So, I chose you, Ra." The emperor looked directly at Aaron with a half-nothing, half-rational face: "You will become the fifth god of chaos, take my place as the god, you will become the lord of reincarnation, you represent both destruction and rebirth, you represent both 'nothing' and 'being', I will transfer my authority to you, so that I can take off the burden, the scale of deviation will return to the original point, the Lord of Darkness will never be born, and the lord of reincarnation will take his place."

"You, Ra, combine with my authority to fulfill the mission I have given you, climb upward, become the Lord of Samsara and the God of the Kingdom, continue this cycle while I rise from the Golden Throne and continue to guard this race as the Lord of Humanity."

"Pull, I ask you, would you like to?"

"It's come to this, I don't have any reason to refuse, I promise." Aaron agreed very readily, and now that he had come to this point, why would he refuse?

"As I expected." There was a faint sigh in the Emperor's voice, "Prepare to accept my authority as Lord of Darkness, Aaron, and may my authority help you to defeat your enemies."

The void was flickering, and Aaron realized that something was flowing out of the corner of the emperor's eye.

The pale emperor's side, the lord of humanity, the white light pulsating, slowly dimming, from the emperor's body, from his empty eyes,

From within his pale and dying roots, wisps of flame flowed towards Aaron.

The flames went from painful blood, to fiery orange, from vivid red, to flawless white.

"This is the authority of the Lord of Darkness, White Flame, who can give any living being the concept of death, and after defining the end of that being in the Roots of Chaos, White Flame will help you kill everything."

The flow of light slowly poured into Aaron's body: "In this way, the other side of your golden law, the death of destiny will also be completely completed, the road belonging to reincarnation will be opened in front of you, and my power and your power will give birth to new gods, and the ascension ceremony of the Lord of Darkness, which has lasted for 10,000 years and 1,000 years, will end here......

Aaron received the power of the Emperor, and he could clearly see the painful look on the Emperor's face, and it would undoubtedly be torture for the Lord of Humanity to strip a part of his own power, but he did it anyway.

The tribune of the Imperial Forbidden Army, the hero of the cyber warfare, and the man who carried Draconion on his back knelt down on one knee before the Emperor for the last time, showing his respect with the Aquila salute and asking the question that had been buried in his heart all along.

"Your Majesty, you have sacrificed so much, you have to give up a part of your godly nature, you have been tortured on the Golden Throne for 11,000 years in order to refuse to ascend to the gods, only to return to humanity without perishing...... Is it really worth it?"

The emperor was stunned, as if surprised that Aaron would ask such a question.

This person has chosen the right one.

For the first time, and possibly for the last, a smile appeared on the corner of the Human Lord's mouth.

"It's worth it."

"It is my own choice to sit on the golden throne, so the burden cannot weigh me down, because it is a sacrifice for everyone."

"Just as Machado chose to ascend the Golden Throne in my place, then we will not feel pitiful, limited, selfish pleasures, our happiness will belong to hundreds of billions of people, and the cause that Machado and I have built with our lives will live on silently but eternally, and noble people will shed tears in the face of heroic sacrifices."
