How to Become an Emperor
I finished the game in multiple paths and I found that becoming an Emperor is like a true ending since it is the last ending to do.
Here’s what I did:
- Follow the main quest and become a disciple of the nameless sect (the one that guides you)
- Win the daliang city arena and win the peak debate (top of jianghu ending)
- Win the arena contest for marriage of the princess and marry the princess, a long the way in the enlightenment tower obtain the seal of the people.
- Trade and obtain the seal of the people from duke wang ki
- Have a high fame and continue the main quest of the nameless sect.
- Rescue the emperor but don’t go inside the Yan iron army main camp to avoid killing the general early, the emperor will die but you will obtain the imperial token which makes your life easier later.
- At this point you will receive a news while you’re travelling in the world map that the Yan iron army will invade chuxiang city, prepare to defend it in 10days.
- Defeat the Yan iron army and it’s general during their invasion and the nine faction sect. After defeating the Yan iron army, chuxiang city will erect your statue replacing your grandmaster’s statue. Note: do not talk with the general in his mansion to have a banquet otherwise from a great hero you will become a traitor instantly because he will frame you up as a spy on the Yan army.
- During this point there will be 2 emperor, go back to the Yan palace main camp and obtain one of the imperial seal.
- Continue the main quest of nameless sect and cross the border in the nameless area, you can do the scholar quest but it will be faster if you will just show them the imperial token you obtain from the emperor.
- Go to the deserted refeguee camp, help melody house on the fight.
- Enter the melody house and go directly to the spring to restore your master’s meridian and kungfu.
- Help melody house again and rescue one of their people from the julli clan, after rescuing go back to the julli clan where you rescue the girl and at the back of the statue obtain the seal of the nation and fight the girl from dragonfly city and persuade or use medical to know the purpose and how to craft the imperial seal. Craft the imperial seal afterwards.
- Subjugate and make the 6 big sect surrender to you and become the jianghu master.
- Ye battalion family will be summoned on the supreme court, help them clean their name and show the imperial token to halt the execution. Subjugate the remaining Yan iron army, use the Yan iron army map to find their hidden camps.
- Clear the name of the Ye family on the emperor in the imperial palace and defeat the master of the nine sect there.
- Become the Ye army leader, with or without costume will do.
- Finish the buddah tower quest and free all of the martial artist from the nine sect.
- At this point continue the nameless sect quest and free lao maotou, the hideout of the nine sect will also be revealed.
- Eliminate the nine sect and continue the game and become it’s new leader, don’t forget to obtain the nine unification ultimate move from your master and full reversal from lao moatou.
- Your wife and woman you’re protecting will be abducted on the fish island, you will fight the dragonfly city leader and members, choose to spare them after winning.
- At this point the you will receive a quest to go somewhere to talk with prince chai. You will also receive a decree from the two emperor, accept the decree from wang ki emperor and eliminate the other emperor.
- Bring your princess wife with you and subjugate emperor wang ki, your wife will try to talk with emperor wang ki about stepping from his throne but he will refuse to you will need to eliminate him and his guards and minister.
- Now that the 2 emperor is gone, prince chai will summon you and explain that he used a rebel like you to become an Emperor, defeat him and his supporters.
- After defeating prince chai, if you are the jianghu master, peak debate winner, has the legendary crafted imperial seal, leader of the elite ye family battalion army and husband of the princess, she will talk to you about no one is going to inherit the throne and how the world will be in chaos and you will become an Emperor yourself. Provided you spared the people from dragonfly city, they will submit to you including all sects and all regions and has a very strong elite army, you will become the true emperor. Note: If you missed one of the criterias written above there’s an alternate ending which shows that you’ve been deceived for trying to do good things and your decisions to meddle in the political wars only brought chaos to the world.
The reason why becoming the true emperor is the true ending for me is because I unified every single sect and eliminated the political war, and has a very strong elite army to defend the nation.
Plus you have a hero statue in chuxiang.
Thx for the guide. I totally forgot to go back to the Ye Family Batallion to become their leader and was confused why having the complete seal etc wasn’t enough to change the ending for me 😛
I do hope that they add an achievement and reward for getting this ending in the future though. Kinda feels weird that helping another person become emperor gives such a good passive, but you get nothing for becoming one yourself :’)
