Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 478 I Will Be Promoted to Dragon King
"Creator!"

Noah once heard the elves' goddess of nature describe to him a Titan who could create the world single-handedly. At that time, Noah found this scenario hard to imagine. How powerful must one be to be able to create the world?
How many rules does a complete material world need to support? The priesthood that the gods compete for is essentially rules, but that is just one of the rules that supports the operation of the world.

Gods, even powerful ones, do not have the ability to create the world on their own. The kingdom of gods is essentially a special demiplane that relies on faith and needs the support of a complete world.

The kingdom of righteous gods often falls in upper planes such as heaven, Mount Paradise, and the realm of heroes, while the kingdom of evil gods falls in the abyss or even hell.

Don't the gods want a material world that belongs entirely to them? It's not that they don't want to, it's just that they can't do it. However, the great power above the great power, known as the existence of the god above the gods, may be able to do it.

But it is only a possibility, because in the inherited information Noah has, there is not much description about this kind of existence, and the gods can only look up to the God above all gods.

That was something that was difficult for Noah and even the gods to understand. But even so, Noah was still very curious and asked one more question.
“Above the Creator, is there anything else?”

"Of course, I told you, this road has no end."

"What is above creation?"

"You ask too many questions, Dragon Clan. Even if you know now, what can you do? The person you should ask the most is Rongyuan."

"Yes."

"If you really want to know, then come in and I'll show you everything."

The fog covering the boundless forest parted to the sides, revealing a wide corridor. The civil engineering giant standing on the edge of the fog extended an invitation to Noah, and Noah stepped forward without any hesitation.

It was just an incarnation of will, so what if it was destroyed? Compared to knowing how to walk the road ahead, this risk was nothing.

Even though this giant, who had a very deep connection with the Titans, was a little too generous, he was able to tell all the top-secret information that was not recorded in any of the major higher races and that even the gods were unknown to them.

Seeing Noah preparing to enter the Forest of the Gods, Urnos and Tydel wanted to follow him, but the Earth Giant turned around and refused to follow.

"The Dragon Clan can come in. They are qualified to understand this path. The rest of you don't have to come in. For you, this path is too far."

"I'm just an avatar, it's okay."

Seeing Taidel frowning, Noah said something to comfort him, and then walked towards the Forest of Divine Evil which had a passage open to him alone.

Tread~tap~
The moment he entered the fog, even though the feedback from his senses was the same as before and the feeling under his feet had not changed at all, Noah still paused.

Noah's spiritual perception made him aware of something incongruous. He felt like an ignorant mortal who had accidentally walked into the open mouth of a sleeping ancient beast.

"Are you afraid?"

The giant who had already entered the depths of the fog looked back at Noah. His face made of dark brown wood should not have any expression, but Noah found that the giant seemed to be smiling.

It was not a malicious smile, but more like the smile of a pioneer looking at the latecomer who was frustrated, which was full of amusement, appreciation and ridicule.

"I'm just an incarnation, how could I be afraid? I just think this place is very special."

Noah looked around and it seemed to be no different from the outside world. There were not many special mountains, rivers or plants. He could see many curious eyes cast at him.

These are the creatures living in the Forest of Divine Evil. They are all of huge size. Noah also saw creatures similar to flower fairies, but compared to the little flower fairies he raised in his childhood, the flower fairies here are incredibly large, even larger than the fully transformed dragon fairies.

But these were not the reasons for Noah to stay, because in Noah's perception, everything around him was alive.

But when Noah paid attention to it and tried to perceive and explore it carefully, he found that they were just plants and creatures full of spirituality, and there was nothing special about them that was worthy of his attention.

"That's because you are standing on my body now."

Without letting Noah guess, the giant told him the reason directly.

"Your body? You mean what I see in front of me?"

Faced with Noah's confusion, the giant did not answer, but disintegrated in front of Noah's eyes. The next moment, accompanied by the roar and shaking of the mountains and the earth, like a pillar of heaven, a pillar made of some kind of wood and flesh pierced through the surface of the earth and appeared in front of Noah.

The moment he appeared, this giant pillar exerted an incomparable and terrifying attraction on everything around it, and everything around it also actively attached itself to this pillar.

The rocks, plants, flowing clouds and howling wind were all swept up in it and gathered on this giant pillar, right in front of Noah, forming a "palm" that was even larger than the giant that had just disintegrated.

This is a palm with rocks and the earth as its flesh and blood, and tree roots as its meridians. When it began to rise, the mountains not far away also roared, and two golden suns lit up in the mist. Those were the eyes of a revived being.

"Titan!"

Seeing the being in front of him who had simply sat up from the ground with its head towering into the sky, Noah raised his head and couldn't help but shout out the being that had disappeared in the world for a long time.

Although Noah was clearly aware that the being before him was not the legendary Titan, because it was by no means a creature of flesh and blood, but more like some kind of earth spirit, Noah believed that this earth spirit must have received the favor of the Titan, otherwise it would not have been possible to condense into such a form.

"Dragon Clan, you are very lucky. If you had come a little later, I would have started another deep sleep, perhaps for a thousand years, or perhaps ten thousand years. During this period, you would never have been able to see me."

“Very lucky indeed.”

Noah nodded in agreement, then carefully looked at the body shown to him by the being in front of him. At his level, he could understand many beings at a glance.

"Do you understand?"

Energy dots lit up one after another on the giant's body. They were energy cores of different colors. At a glance, there were three thousand of them, as if all the stars were shining in the sky, incomparably bright. The energy dots were independent of each other, but they were also connected to each other.

"This is the immortal body that an epic should have. Even if it is worn out and only a little bit of residue is left, it can be revived again through this."

“This shouldn’t be all you have.”

Noah looked greedily at the Titan giant, whose upper body was only visible and whose head towered into the sky. He eagerly tried to spy on the energy circulation routes inside the body that the giant showed him, and imprinted each one firmly in his mind.

"Of course, even if I show you everything, you won't be able to see it, and you're not a Titan. This is just a reference for you. You can only use it for reference."

"I understand." Noah nodded. Whether the other party wanted to hide something or was just as he said, even if he showed everything, Noah couldn't see everything. At this moment, Noah was grateful. After all, the question he just asked was a little presumptuous and crossed the line, but Noah was still very curious.
"I want to know, if you put all your effort into it, how big a body can you maintain?"

"Under the fog, everything is my body. What you see now is only a small part of me."

"!?"

Even now, Noah couldn't help but feel his mind stagnate, with an expression of disbelief and shock in his eyes, looking at the forest in front of him shrouded in fog. Although the thick fog could block the mental power, Noah could still see part of it.

Not to mention that when he looked down from the sky before, he had a rough idea of ​​how big this land shrouded in fog was. If this giant was not lying and this area was all his body, then his body probably could not be measured in hundreds or kilometers.

"Unbelievable?"

Seeing Noah's undisguised shock, the Titan giant descended from the sky, and on his face filled with tree roots, rocks and soil, a smile appeared that Noah could sense and perceive.

"I have never seen a being more massive than you in the material world."

If the world will is revived and has its own will, then the world is its body. However, such a form of existence is meaningless. Having an entity that can move at will is truly terrifying.

"That's natural. My existence is more special than you think."

“Are you epic?”

Noah was extremely curious, and at the same time his heart was tense. He had an extremely terrible guess in his mind.

"No, I am just an earth spirit that was born by chance when a Titan was trying to create something. Although I have inherited the Titan's legacy, I have not met his expectations."

There was a hint of loneliness in Mikhail's voice. He denied Noah's guess, and also dashed Noah's expectations.

"Okay, Dragon, you've got the answer you wanted. Is there anything else you want to ask? If not, you can leave now. I'm going to bed now."

"I have one last question."

"Go ahead."

"Why are you so generous to me? I haven't promised you anything, and you've shown it all to me without reservation."

This is Noah's biggest confusion. Although the existence in front of him is just like the Titan in the rumors, it is too generous and magnanimous.

"You were guided here by the Titans. Isn't that reason enough?"

"Every living being guided by the Titan bloodline can get your guidance?"

"Of course not. You can see me because you are qualified to embark on the epic journey. More importantly, you are favored and loved by more than one material world. You are a natural guardian."

"protector?"

Noah seemed to understand something. According to the legend, the Titans all embarked on the epic journey as saviors. They were undoubtedly an opposing group to the destroyers who chose to destroy the world. Noah also couldn't stand it. Perhaps his harvest today was due to the choice of path.

"It has been a long time since a new epic was born in this void. It is gradually becoming silent. I hope you can be the next one."

"I try my best."

Noah did not finish his words, although he was already thinking about how to build his own immortal body of the Dragon King, and his ideas were gradually becoming clearer.

"Okay, I'm going to sleep. By the way, tell the little guy named Urnos outside not to bother me again for at least a thousand years, otherwise I will definitely throw him out."

"I'll pass it on."

When Noah walked out of the Forest of Doom, the fog behind him made a roaring sound like a landslide or tsunami. The passage that was just wide enough for Noah to pass through was instantly submerged and disappeared.

Not only that, the fog, which originally allowed one to at least see some vague outlines and shadows inside, became even thicker and turned into a wall of fog that stretched from the sky to the ground, completely isolating the outside world from prying eyes.

"Noah, what's going on?"

Seeing Noah walk out safely, even though it was just an incarnation, Teddel still looked worried. When he saw Noah for the first time, he immediately greeted him with a happy smile.

"I'm ready to be promoted to Dragon King!"

Noah's words were earth-shattering. When the father and son were stunned, Noah spoke again,

"But I need your help."

"How do you want us to help you?"

"I need you to plunder sacrifices from other worlds for me that can activate the will of the world."

"Aren't we doing this now?"

"Not enough, far from enough."

The immortal body inherited from the Titans cannot be constructed in the material world, or in other words, simple high-density energy is far from enough. It must be the root power of the world to create an immortal body that is comparable to or even surpasses the gods.

Because the immortal body needs to bear the power of containing rules, this is also the key to being promoted to a creator in the future. If the creator himself cannot bear the compatible rules, how can he open up the void?

"Father, I can help you."

Urnos spoke from the side, his eyes revealing a strong desire to fight.

Nominating Noah to become the Dragon King would bring only benefits to the Augustus family. Of course, there is one thing that has not been said but is known to everyone: once Noah is promoted to the Dragon King, the former head of the Augustus family will have the hope of returning.

Once the first generation returns, the Augustus family, whose development has now reached a bottleneck and can only rely on the expansion of the Holy Dragon Order to maintain its survival and scale, will reach a new peak and usher in glory beyond all its past.
