"Reincarnation of the Dragon God? No."
Noah heard his adoptive mother’s remark and transformed into a gold-gobbling giant beast, devouring a vast amount of precious resources, replenishing the deficit and consumption of his body while still managing a reply.
"Then tell me, what are you?"
The mage looked at the Golden Giant Dragon in front of her, whose body was gradually being filled, scales beginning to shine, and flames starting to ignite between its horns. Her expression became increasingly peculiar; at this point, it was hard for her to ignore the abnormalities in this fellow because it had already surpassed the knowledge of a Legendary Mage.
This dragon’s mother and father were also her close friends. The talents of these two Golden Dragons were absolutely above the average standard within their clan.
They could also be called prodigies, but these two geniuses appeared utterly unremarkable compared to their son, an ordinary dragon clan of no comparison.
"For decades, have you ever stopped evolving for a moment? You’ve already become an Ancestor Dragon, yet you still haven’t stopped. Tell me, aside from the reincarnation of the Dragon God, what other reason can explain your current transformation? I’ve never seen a dragon like you!"
"Maybe I’m the reincarnation of the Dragon King?"
Noah felt the Magic Power within him gradually filling up, beginning to actively restrain his power because he noticed the pure gold flames starting to burn on him were already eroding the surrounding structures.
Even the Alchemy Matrix drawn by his adoptive mother was melting under him. The flames rising from him not only had an extremely high temperature but also possessed extraordinarily dominant extraordinary attributes, just like the Sun.
"Does a Dragon King need to reincarnate?"
The girl rolled her eyes.
"But the Dragon God doesn’t need to reincarnate either."
"Who says the Dragon God doesn’t need to? Among all gods, the dragon clan’s deities are the laziest."
Noah was slightly taken aback; this was something never mentioned in his inheritance. But thinking about it, it makes sense. This is a negative evaluation. Which dragon would record negative information about themselves in the inheritance left for their descendants?
"Of course, don’t you find it strange? The strongest deity in your dragon clan’s history was only Medium Divine Power. Not even a single one reached Strong Divine Power. Do you find that reasonable?"
"It’s because there are few believers of the dragon clan, and the faith of the dragon species isn’t devout."
Noah explained that any Professional mastering extraordinary power through their own efforts could at most be light believers, even if they believed in gods. It’s hard to find devout believers unless they are clergy bestowed power by those deities.
The vast majority of devout believers and saints are born from the mundane because they desperately need power that transcends the secular to bestow blessings and provide protection.
"In the mundane, aren’t there few mortals who believe in alien gods? Such a reason is too far-fetched. It is simply because your dragon clan’s deities are unwilling to fight. Even the strongest deities haven’t taken on any significant divine duties."
"It seems that is true."
Noah recalled the situation and found that indeed, as far as he knew, most dragon gods were quite laid-back. They weren’t interested in vying for more powerful divine positions, much less motivated to ascend into stronger deities. They were quite passive.
If explaining the dragon gods’ limited dragon clan faith was the only reason, it seems too far-fetched. Because once becoming a deity, unless constrained as a racial god, the followers shouldn’t be limited to one clan but spread across various intelligent races.
"So you’re really not the Dragon God?"
Noah was quite certain. He might have some little anomalies and uniqueness, but he was sure he had no copper coin’s worth of connection with the Dragon God.
Hearing the Golden Dragon’s unwavering answer, the mage in girl’s form sighed in slight disappointment. Her eyes then roamed over the golden dragon, roughly estimating this guy’s size and couldn’t hold back.
"Then can you tell me, what’s going on with your evolution this time? Don’t you think the changes are too exaggerated?"
"Are they? I don’t feel like my changes are that substantial."
At this moment, Noah’s body was full, restored to its rightful strength and grandeur. The scales shone splendidly, more regal and noble than before.
The Golden Dragon looked back, assessing his dragon form, and didn’t find anything particularly special, other than having grown a bit larger.
The realm hasn’t improved much. In terms of the extraordinary system, the Skill’s Extreme Intent and Magic Extreme Intent have barely progressed. The Extreme Intent of Qi is now only at the Third Rank, at most a Fourth Rank standard. However, Soul’s Extreme Intent, Life’s Extreme Intent, and Power Extreme Intent are close to reaching the pinnacle of this realm.
"Your size is almost approaching that of an Ancient Dragon. Is this the size you should have at your age?"
Selena questioned, previously respecting her foster son’s privacy. As a Transcendent, who doesn’t have their own little secrets?
But this fellow’s body length now exceeds fifty meters, to such an extent that there’s no way she could ignore it?
This can no longer be explained. Previously, as an ancestral dragon, although special, a few could still be found in various nearby planes.
Even becoming an ancestral dragon species ten years ago was barely acceptable. After all, being exceptionally gifted, a genius must show above-average performance for his kind.
