Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 993 - 544

When they saw the Golden Dragon Claw descending from the vast, glowing sky, although they sensed its divine and immortal aura, the Snake-men struggling amidst the chaos felt utterly hopeless.

For anyone with even a sliver of understanding could guess the source of the calamities they were facing; how could such an existence be descending to save them?

Yet the reality turned out to be the exact opposite of their expectations. The Dragon Claw descending from the golden sky did not harm them; instead, it stopped the apocalypse as they had hoped.

The land ceased to shatter, the seas calmed their roaring, and the raging elements were gradually appeased or rather suppressed. The world, on the verge of collapse, about to fall into the Lower Plane and become part of the Abyss, had its destruction halted.

Amid the complex emotions of fear and slight confusion among the remaining Snake-men, the golden brilliance similar to an endless sky, accompanied by the descending Golden Dragon Claw, enveloped their world entirely.

Roar～

As the dragon's roar echoed through the Void, this world, pierced by unknown forces, trembled, and the Material Realm that once stood firm in the Void, operating along its defined orbit, was shaken.

"Noah!"

A voice filled with furious will resounded as the world was shaken, but as golden arcs slashed through the Void, the voice abruptly ceased. The Void, left vacant, stood where the world once existed, now vanished without a trace.

The intensity of the war escalated with the successful development of the Sky-based Star-Killing Cannon by the Dragon-man Holy Court, reaching a higher grade of magnitude. Previously, wars only reached their most brutal state when both sides deployed dual sets of strategic war fortresses or invoked the power of outside Divine beings, which alone had the potential to lead to the Material World's downfall, with the risk of falling into the Lower Plane.

But now, that is no longer necessary. With the Dragon-man Holy Court having completed the Star-Killing Cannon, all that is required is a precise coordinate, and the light from the Star-Killing Cannon can cross the vast Void to deliver a devastating strike to a target world.

However, the Star-Killing Cannon is not without weaknesses. For instance, this Taboo Weapon, designed with Divine beings as its initial target, consumes an extraordinary amount of energy. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Energy supply is the biggest issue, hence each activation of the Star-Killing Cannon must achieve a decisive outcome. In other words, it can only target high-value worlds.

As for ordinary worlds, there is no need to bother; even if the Dragon-men are wealthy, they cannot afford to waste all their money on firing the cannon. They simply do not have that kind of foundation.

Due to its significant consumption issue, the Dragon-men are extremely cautious when deploying the Star-Killing Cannon, repeatedly verifying their target worlds, collecting information by all means, to ensure the benefits of destruction outweigh the energy consumed by the Star-Killing Cannon.

Despite its various drawbacks, there is no denying that with the completion of the Star-Killing Cannon, Noah's advancement to become the Lord of the World has also accelerated dramatically.

In the process of collecting and annexing world after world, the Mother Realm's attitude towards Noah gradually changed until, naturally, everything fell into place.

"Is that all it takes?!"

Noah felt the mark he just integrated, or rather the supreme authority originating from the world itself. Upon mastering this authority, as Dragon King, Noah instantly experienced a sense of omniscience and omnipotence.

Omniscient and omnipotent

This is how mortals perceive Divine beings, but in reality, no deity can meet such standards, not even the Great Divine Power of legend.

Of course, correspondingly, even the creator on the Epic Path cannot be omniscient or omnipotent. Yet Noah can now do so, but within a restricted range. Only within the Mother Realm's scope can Noah achieve omniscience and omnipotence; beyond the world, he can only exert the authority and power of the Dragon King.

Although Noah had long been prepared for this day, for he walked this lonely path alone, with no competition, eventually reaching the end.

Yet suddenly obtaining what he had longed for brought a sense of emptiness, though mingled with a certain prideful satisfaction.

This is all?

Faced with Noah swiftly pulling remnants of worlds, whose rules were about to Shattered and collapse, time and again, the Dragon Realm Will simply chose to let things slide, delegating full authority to Noah, the initiator, allowing Noah complete access to handle everything.

Over the past centuries, Noah's actions have demonstrated just how vital his existence is to the world's prosperity and development. The operation of the world is inseparable from him.

Therefore, after consecutive impacts, the World Will chose to relinquish authority, for even if it didn't, it could not sustain much longer.

The World Will was already severely corroded by Noah; the bloodline of all beings flowed with the essence originating from him. More so as he integrated many Shattered worlds, fracturing and diminishing the Mother Realm's awareness.

All arrangements were entirely reasonable, yet upon obtaining everything he desired, Noah did not undergo a complete and overwhelming transformation.
