Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 133 The Third Transformation, Ancestral Appearance
"You're finally getting started. I thought you planned on entering your teenage years after your fortieth birthday."

When she learned that Noah was about to enter a deep sleep period, Serena looked even more excited than Jin Long himself.
"Come on, take these with you."

"This is too much, too expensive!"

Seeing the many treasures that his adoptive mother stuffed into his hands, although Noah had already received quite a few, he still felt flattered at this moment.

The Earth Fire Marrow is a rare fire treasure that can only be found in the deepest part of the earth, in the hottest lava sea. If you throw it anywhere at random, it can create something out of nothing and create an endless flowing lava river.

Solar Dust is a rare treasure originating from the sun. At first glance, it is just a floating ball of light dust. Its preciousness does not lie in its rarity, but in the very high threshold for collection. The amount that can be collected each time is extremely small.

The amount Noah got would take a thousand years if collected by a legendary wizard himself. Although it was not collected every moment, it would take a thousand years to accumulate slowly.

In addition, there are the breath of morning light from heaven, the sacred spirit, and the immortal fire that accompanies the phoenix's rebirth, as well as many other treasures that are of great benefit to his transformation.

"Since you think it's too valuable, then don't disappoint Cassius and I. When you wake up, you must give us a surprise."

Selina looked at Jin Long's reaction, feeling satisfied, but her tone was nonchalant.

"I try my best."

Although a blood-source fruit had been successfully grown on the golden tree, and its potency was stronger than any previous one, Noah had no idea whether he could use this fruit to return to his ancestral state and transform into an ancestral dragon.

"You can't just try your best. You have to try your best. The sooner you transform, the better. Otherwise, once you grow up and have stronger power, the difficulty will only increase."

The wizard's voice suddenly became serious, and Noah nodded repeatedly.

"I'll do my best."

"Some of these were prepared for you by Cassius, and some were collected by me. But you don't need to pay attention to them. You just need to absorb them all when you transform. As long as you can integrate these powers, when you wake up, even if you don't become an ancestral dragon, you won't be far behind."

Jin Long immediately felt a huge pressure, but this pressure was within his tolerance. He could indeed take advantage of this opportunity to try to impact his ancestral bloodline.

Noah himself was prepared, but the treasures that his adoptive parents prepared for him were completely beyond his expectations. With such expectations, the golden dragon entered the Mage City, where he would sleep and enter adolescence.

This is the most suitable place for him to sleep. The magic power gathered in the Mage City is so dense that even mortal eyes can see it. In some particularly dense areas, creatures that move unconsciously are formed.

"Your Highness Noah!"

The great fairy Sifrea, whose dragon features were becoming more and more obvious, bowed slightly to Noah. Beside her were two other fairies, Lutetia and Alfino.

These three great fairies that evolved earliest have been with Noah for the longest time, so their dragon-like characteristics are the most obvious among all the great fairies.

Especially Sifrea, a pair of small and delicate dragon horns have grown on her forehead, which is cute yet majestic.

"I am about to fall asleep. You will assign all the tasks you are responsible for to other great fairies and accompany me to sleep."

"Yes."

Even Elfino, the most power-obsessed of the three great goblins, had no resistance to this order. He agreed immediately with joy in his eyes.

They have long understood some truths in the world: power comes from strength, and power without strength to support it is just false. With support, even little goblins can rely on them to bully others.

"I wonder how long I will need to sleep this time?"

Noah was originally quite optimistic about the duration of his sleep this time, estimating that he would wake up in no more than two years. However, if he really had to absorb the pile of treasures that his adoptive mother stuffed in his hands, the time would be hard to calculate.

Having said that, Noah was still particularly looking forward to it. After basically handling all the external affairs, Noah walked into the sleeping place specially opened for him.

This is a demi-plane space connected to the Mage City. The space is not large, and it is only a few thousand meters away. The ground is covered with elemental crystals, mixed with a lot of crystal cores produced by elemental creatures.

“What a luxury!”

Even the Golden Dragon couldn't help but sigh at this moment. Even if you don't look at the crystals covering the ground, the value of this half-plane space under his feet alone is inestimable.

This is not a temporary space, but a demiplane with a stable structure, which was opened up by a legendary wizard himself. It has great strategic significance for any national power.

Now, the control of this space has fallen into Noah's hands. Even if there is an extremely terrible turmoil in the outside world, even if the Mage City is hit and fallen, it is difficult to affect here.

However, this situation is almost impossible to happen. Unless it is a catastrophe era when the gods will also descend in the form of saints, such a sensational event is impossible to happen.

"Your Highness Noah, what do we need to do?"

The three great goblins who followed the golden dragon into the demiplane were both nervous and excited.

"You don't need to do anything. You just need to absorb my aura and try to evolve and advance. I hope that when I wake up, you will also be able to complete the transformation in life form like me and advance to a higher level of goblin."

"We will definitely not let you down."

Amid the assurances and encouragements from the great goblins, Noah stretched out his twenty-four-meter-long dragon body, lazily lying on a hill made of fire element crystals, lazily closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

Not knowing how many years had passed, and unable to sense the passage of time, when Noah saw the golden tree standing in front of him, he hesitated for a long time before he picked the dark fruit hanging on it.

“Bitterness comes first, sweetness comes later!”

The fruit, which seemed to be the source of darkness, turned into a pool of black liquid the moment it left the treetop. As if they were afraid that Noah would go back on his word, they rushed towards the golden dragon and actually dyed the dragon arm that Noah had picked the fruit into the darkest black.

"Fuck!" No matter how well-mannered Noah was, he couldn't help but curse out loud at this moment, because the many negative emotions such as despair and pain caused by death had surged up like a tide, one after another, trying to engulf his mind.

The powerful dragon body, majestic magic power, complex spells, and even exquisite words were all useless at this moment. Noah was like a drowning man, struggling helplessly in the dark deep water with no shore in sight.

But every time he finally came out of the water to breathe a sigh of relief, he would be thrown back under the water by a huge wave. This cycle repeated endlessly with no end in sight, as if it lasted forever.

An unknown amount of time passed, but when Noah came to his senses from the endless darkness, looking at the golden tree in front of him which was even more dazzling than after he had plucked the dark fruit, he suddenly felt a sense of ease and comfort from within, as if he had been freed from all the shackles.

Noah felt that his mind and will had undergone an all-round sublimation, just like the golden tree in front of him that was growing more and more prosperous.

"I finally made it through. Now, it's time to enjoy myself!"

Noah was not at all depressed because of his previous sinking into darkness. He was still full of confidence and expectation. He picked the largest red fruit on the treetop and swallowed it in one gulp.

Gum!

The Golden Dragon felt as if he had swallowed a huge piece of charcoal. A scorching hot current erupted from his chest and abdomen, sweeping across his body. Wrapped in this warm warmth, Noah felt unprecedented satisfaction.

However, when the golden dragon was immersed in spiritual relaxation and joy, the dragon body in the material world had undergone earth-shaking changes because he swallowed two fruits.

"what should we do?"

The three big goblins waiting beside the golden dragon were all at a loss at this moment. They surrounded the dragon's body, which had dull scales, shriveled skin, and looked like it had run out of vitality. They circled back and forth in the sky anxiously, but did not know what to do.

Because this half-plane space has been completely closed with Noah's sleep, it is impossible for these big goblins who do not have the authority to inform the outside world.

"Look!"

Just when these big goblins were so anxious that they were about to bang their heads on the ground, Lutetia pointed excitedly at the golden dragon that had changed again.

A lustrous red light burst out from the gaps between the dragon's scales, and as the red light spread, this dragon body, which seemed to have gone through something unknown and had consumed a lot of its vitality, and looked somewhat terrifying, was recovering rapidly, just like a whale sucking water, absorbing everything around it to replenish its recovery. The glowing crystal cores lost their luster at a speed visible to the naked eye and turned into powder.

"Great!"

"Your Highness Noah is fine."

Although they didn't know the root cause of the changes, and they completely didn't understand the reasons for these changes, the great goblins could understand why the sect master's aura was gradually filling up and becoming more and more powerful.

While the goblins were cheering, Noah, who thought he had entered the stage of enjoyment, was a little dazed because the golden tree had disappeared, and he once again entered an illusion that was so real that it was unbelievable.

However, this time the illusion was not caused by the fruit. Of course, the fruit was indeed the trigger, but tracing its source, it came from himself, or in other words, his own golden dragon bloodline.

"Is this the ancestral golden dragon?"

Noah looked at the giant golden dragon flying through the clouds in front of him. Even though there was nothing to measure or reference in the sky, he could imagine how huge its body was just by looking at the shadow it cast on the ground.

This is a mythical creature that is as big as the Sky Curtain Beast. The ordinary material world cannot tolerate the existence of such a creature. Even if it does not have any malicious intent, its every move will bring irresistible and terrible disasters to the creatures in the mortal world. Even natural disasters cannot describe its destructive power.

“How majestic!”

Noah was amazed by the posture of the ancestral golden dragon. Whether it was the golden scales shining with divine luster, the winding and slender dragon body that stretched like mountains, or the dragon beard with a graceful and elegant style, all made Noah yearn for it.

This is exactly the power and attitude he wants to master, but there is a slight flaw:

"Why don't you have wings?"

This ancestral golden dragon is different from the modern golden dragon. It does not have fish-fin-like dragon wings extending from the head to the tail on both sides of its body. To be more precise, there is no wing-like structure at all.

The ancestral golden dragon relies entirely on its innate extraordinary power to soar in the sky, and does not need to follow the biological rule that only wings can fly.

“It was almost there!”

Although Noah envied the ancestral golden dragon's size and strength like a sky-curtain behemoth, he was reluctant to give up his existing dragon wings if he really evolved into this appearance.

He really likes his dragon wings. Even when he needs to transform into a human form to attend a dragon gathering, he will not hide his dragon wings.

As Noah had this thought, the ancestral golden dragon that was flying between heaven and earth, which should be an illusion, seemed to glance at Noah unintentionally, and then his figure began to dim and slowly disappeared.

Just when Noah thought it was over, another slightly different ancestral golden dragon appeared in front of him, an ancestor that was swimming in the ocean, creating huge waves.

The difference is that this golden dragon has wings, but his dragon wings look like the source of the modern golden dragon's dragon wings, appearing more complete and extremely vicissitudes of life and retro temperament, so Noah's evaluation of this is,
“This isn’t my type.”

The golden dragon that was fighting with the offspring of the evil god in the deep sea also looked back. Noah felt his heart skip a beat, but fortunately nothing happened.

The ancestral golden dragon that was fighting also disappeared. The next moment, another ancestral golden dragon appeared. At this time, Noah didn't dare to force it anymore.

Because Noah discovered that these ancestral golden dragons that showed up in front of him did not seem to have died, and were most likely still alive. They were now active in a certain world, and now, because of some kind of attraction from their blood, they showed their bodies to him.

Only in this way could it be explained why his previous mumblings could have caused these powerful ancestors to respond.

However, even if he stopped muttering, the ancestral golden dragon that appeared in front of him only lasted for a while before disappearing, and then another one appeared in front of him.

From this, Noah discovered that the ancestral golden dragons did not have a unified morphological template. They all had their own characteristics. If they had to say the same characteristics, it would be that their scales were golden and their bodies were larger than modern dragons could understand.
