Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 136 - 116: The Elemental Ocean, The Monarch Lies Dormant

"Weren’t you forbidding me from looking, right?"

Noah muttered a complaint while gazing at the wall-high bookshelves filled with Dark Forbidden Books before him.

The resentment and sinister omens naturally emanating from these books formed a curse that made the Golden Dragon feel physically uncomfortable and disgusted. The collection of books here far exceeded what his foster father had given him back then.

"All things in the world are in a state of change; nothing remains unchanging forever. When you were forbidden to see them, it was because Casius and I held divergent opinions.

But now, he and I have reached an agreement, so the previous ban naturally has been lifted. You should study these books well now, and after I break through to the Legendary Rank, you’ll assist me in setting up the array."

Selena warned the Golden Dragon, explaining the changed requirement.

"Aunt, are you confident of breaking through to the Legendary Rank now?"

Noah’s eyes lit up, quickly grasping the critical point.

"Yes, I will attempt the advancement when Mage City is completed."

The Duchess nodded calmly, as if discussing a trivial matter, without a hint of emotion.

"That’s great!"

Noah couldn’t help but celebrate, his eyes revealing a joyful emotion.

If his foster mother ascended, even with his foster father’s abandonment of the bloodline leading to an unstable Legendary Rank power, it would still be enough to deter everything, for in most people’s perception, a Legendary Spellcaster can easily crush a close-combat Legend.

Of course, more importantly, as a Legendary Spellcaster, the benefits she could create would bring economic gains far exceeding those brought by a warrior, which would be the true foundation for stabilizing power.

For Noah, his foster mother’s advancement held greater significance compared to his foster father’s ascension to the Legendary Rank. The most fundamental reason being that Selena would never be like Casius, running around everywhere, spending most of her time away from home.

"I might still fail in my advancement, so don’t be too cheerful too soon."

"If you fail, then try again. With your foundation, you are capable of making continuous attempts over a short period; success is inevitable."

Noah had full confidence in his foster mother.

"Focus on reading your books; don’t let your mind wander. This isn’t your concern."

Selena gave the overexcited Golden Dragon a minor knock, reminding him that he wasn’t the one advancing to Legend; this dragon was more restless and complacent than she was.

"Aunt, haven’t you gathered quite a few mage followers? You could let them get involved!"

Noah shook his head and suggested.

Selena’s influence had grown immensely, especially after spearheading the conquest of the Dark Territory, her might approached that of a Legendary Mage.

In this war, too many profits were looted from underground to the surface, with treasures accumulated by the Dark Clans for centuries, as well as the clans themselves, being taken as war spoils to the surface.

Under such vast temptation, even many conceited spellcasters couldn’t help but pledge themselves to the Augustus family.

They claimed to follow the esteemed Extreme Intent Mage, Dark Raider, Dark Slave Master, and War Mage, Selena, with hopes of securing a foothold in the mage city, possibly developing into a Holy Land for Casters, that was about to be completed.

"Matters concerning Casius’s life? How could I possibly trust them? I only trust you."

Selena gave Noah another knock, rebuking him for suggesting such an unreliable idea,

"Oh, well, I’m truly honored then."

Noah mumbled and then settled down in this room filled with darkness, ominousness, and curses, picking up a few books to read.

Stimulated by these dark and negative auras, the Dragon Scale radiance on the Golden Dragon immediately became more dazzling, occasionally solidifying into tangible curses that recklessly lunged at him. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Upon touching the golden radiance, the curses immediately emitted sizzling sounds similar to roasting meat, let out piercing wails and screams, and then dissolved into nothingness. The Dragonoids’ innate resistance was already extraordinarily strong, and as an Ancestor Return Golden Dragon, Noah stood out exceptionally in this regard.

"Designing a Bloodline Stripping Array that requires no prayer to any Evil God and does not draw upon the power of any ancient entities is indeed quite challenging!"

Noah tossed aside a black leather book with extremely intricate page textures, which immediately let out a soft gasp upon hitting the ground, then got flicked into the corner by the Golden Dragon’s tail.

This was a Book of Darkness crafted from the hides of several Zor Priests, tanned, and filled with various evil techniques recorded in blood, giving off a nauseating stench.

Extracting and stripping the bloodline of powerful creatures not only requires meticulous detail but also an immensely extensive and cumbersome process, thus often requiring the invocation of higher-level entities to succeed.

The only ones willing to lend power for such unscrupulous deeds, aside from the well-known Evil Gods, were some ancient entities whose names have been forgotten by the world, yet their intimidating presence remains unaffected.

These beings cannot be judged or distinguished using human concepts of good and evil. Applying human-created rules and frameworks to these entities is ludicrous.

Consequently, their actions are often beyond human comprehension, and seemingly illogical, while in fact, many times, their decisions are simply made out of a fleeting whim.

"Though there is a piece of good news, as my foster father is willing to cooperate, but can the resistance of the Titan Bloodline be suppressed?"
