Chapter 1540: The Background of the Dragon Church
Nine-faced Dragon God Io.
It is the true ancestor of dragons, also known as "the creator of all dragons" and "the eternal wheel".
At the same time, Io is also the supreme dragon god above Tiamat, the mother of five-color dragons, and Bahamut, who represents the metal dragon camp.
You should know that Tiamat has the titles of gods such as "Colorful Dragon", "Dark Lady", "Queen of Chaos", "Queen of Immortality", and "Greed".
Not only is he the god of all five-color dragons, but he is also worshipped by most evil dragons.
His style of behavior is evil and weird.
Bahamut has more titles such as "Guardian Angel of the Seven Heavens", "Dragon God", "King of Good Dragons", "Creator of Justice", "Lord of the North Wind", "Platinum Dragon", etc.
It is the king of good dragons and the head of good dragons.
Follow the ancient way and maintain justice and fairness.
They represent the light and dark sides of the dragon god respectively.
They all originated from the creation of the Supreme Dragon God Io.
Therefore, when it comes to dragon gods, Io is the well-deserved pinnacle of true dragons.
It is said that all dragons originated from Io.
It shaped the origin of dragons.
This is equivalent to creating a complete genealogy, not just a simple bloodline inheritance.
If all the secrets of the Dragon Nest come from the shell of Io, then many problems can be explained.
The shell of the Dragon God means that it carries the power of the birth of the Dragon God.
It stands to reason that dragons will devour eggshells to replenish their strength after hatching.
But I don’t know why they ended up here?
Everyone was surprised for a while, and finally Jeanne was the first to come to her senses.
She is not a local "native".
Although she knew what the Nine-Faced Dragon God was, she was not as shocked as the two locals, Lan Xiaodai and Rexxar.
"The Nine-Faced Dragon God is so powerful."
"Even if it is an eggshell, I'm afraid it can't be carried here."
She raised a new question.
Zong Shen nodded with approval.
"You are right."
"The Io shell that fell here in the Dragon Nest is only about one percent of its complete state."
"Perhaps it is the debris left behind when Io swallowed the shell."
"How that piece of Io's shell fell into the Endless Continent is no longer known."
"Even if it is only one percent, it has unimaginable power."
"And I have reason to suspect that there are more relics or items left by Io in the Kingdom of Avalon, which may explain why the Pendragon royal family and the Dragon Church both worship Io."
Zong Shen put forward his own opinion.
The strategy module does not know everything beyond the Endless Continent.
Many times, Zong Shen needs to reason and think about it himself.
What can be confirmed at present is that the Io shell hidden in the Dragon Nest is definitely not that big.
Otherwise, this place will definitely not be as calm as it looks on the surface.
As the ancestor of all dragons, Io's power is extremely powerful.
The eggshell that hatched it also has unparalleled original power.
Therefore, it is not surprising that it makes this place produce the effect of dragonization.
Zong Shen knows even more truth than the Dragonization Church.
In ancient times, the Dragonization Church discovered an unusual real dragon power hidden here through special inheritance and rituals.
The high-level leaders of the Dragonization Church at that time finally determined that this place was related to Io.
The dragonization rituals performed here not only have a higher success rate, but also the degree of stimulation of dragonization power will be much higher.
In addition, the area and airspace of the Dragonization Nest have changed significantly.
The church has conducted several downward excavations, but has not found the burial place of the Io power.
At the same time, they also explored the sky, but unfortunately still found nothing.
As for the space here, it cannot be broken.
It seems that the entire space barrier is solidified by some rules.
Therefore, no space effect can be activated within the range of the Dragonization Nest.
Of course, Zong Shen's [Phantom Flash] can still be used as a field shuttle skill.
But it is also subject to certain restrictions.
There will be a delay of about one second each time the flash is activated.
This is just the outer area. It is conceivable that when he goes to the central area of the Dragon Nest, the flashing effect will inevitably be more severely suppressed.
The above all proves the strangeness of this place.
But for so many years, no force, including the Dragon Church, has been able to discover the secret.
Occasionally, wandering dragons will sense the fluctuations of the laws here and come to explore, but the results are always the same.
After thousands of years of erosion, the Dragon Nest has become a singularity that is recognized as having little exploration value.
The Dragon Church also tactfully declared that this place has only symbolic significance, but no practical significance.
Over time, it has become the current situation.
For Zong Shen, this is a good opportunity.
Now he only needs to deal with the Dragon Church alone, without worrying about any messy disputes.
At this moment, the sky above everyone's head is bright.
The continuous mountains are covered by a layer of light shadow, as if a huge cloud is floating by.
Zong Shen threw away the branch in his hand and raised his hand to pat it lightly.
[Gravity] was activated instantly, pressing the place where he had just written into a pit.
"Xiao Dai, you temporarily return to your original form."
"I have to ride you to the center."
Lan Xiaodai had maintained his human form for a long time, and suddenly asked to ride, which made Zong Shen feel a little awkward.
After all, she grew up directly from a young dragon, unlike Xiao Heizi, who was often driven as a mount by someone from the clan when she first joined the territory.
But Lan Xiaodai didn't have any objections to this.
Zong Shen was both a master and a father to him.
The extremely old dragon-level dragon's body is so huge that it can carry several humans without feeling.
After Lan Xiaodai nodded in agreement, Zong Shen turned his head and looked at Lexa.
"Lexxa, advance from the ground."
"Summons Hofer the Porcupine as a mount."
"I want you to create chaos on the edge of the central area and attract the attention of the Dragon Transformation Church."
"When a battle occurs, please be sure to pay attention to those dragon beasts with special mutations."
Zong Shen warned seriously.
Lexa, who was listening sideways, nodded solemnly: "Please rest assured, sir."
Finally, Zong Shen turned to look at Jeanne.
"Jane, please follow me."
There are two main reasons for bringing Joan of Arc this time.
The first is to exercise her practical combat and exploration abilities.
The second is to use Joan of Arc's powerful self-healing aura to match the [True Ring Red Ring (lower demigod level)] that Zong Shen had previously obtained.
"Okay sir."
Jeanne nodded.
After confirming the preliminary plan, Zong Shen waved his hand.
Everyone immediately took action.
Lan Xiaodai, who was still there, immediately became energetic.
She was feeling bored and wanted an exciting adventure.
She jumped up and jumped to a height of 100 meters with a powerful monster body.
Then her body suddenly changed, expanded instantly, and transformed into a huge true dragon form.
The dark blue scales are shiny in the sunlight, and the huge body is even more oppressive.
"Let's go."
Zong Shen activated [Gravity Technique] to generate two even repulsive forces, pushing himself and Joan of Arc upwards, and landed very accurately on the back of Lan Xiaodai's neck.
Her true dragon form has a ferocious back, with large and small thorns and inverted scales scattered on it.
Without a special saddle, only the back of the neck is relatively flat.
After sitting firmly, Zong Shen guided Lan Xiaodai to fly towards the central area.
On the ground, Beast King Rexxar watched Zong Shen and others go away.
Then Hofer was summoned.
Porcupine Hofer, who is comparable to a large truck, has legendary strength.
There are many hard bristles on both sides of its back that are comparable to short spears.
Those bristles can be fired out as a long-range attack against enemies.
At this time, it is somewhat hindering riding.
But Lexa didn't take it seriously.
Please...you...collect_6_9_书_Bar (Six//Nine//Books//Bar)
He didn't intend to ride on Hofer's back either.
Instead, he jumped onto a curved fang on the side.
Although sitting like this hinders your balance, Hofer's strength is enough to bear it easily.
Porcupine Hofer snorted and raised his muzzle slightly.
Then it dug its front hooves into the ground and began a heroic and reckless charge along the hillside at its feet.
Its thick crust and sharp bristles make it look like a giant wire brush brushing roughly through the forest.
Wherever they passed, the ground shook, the mountains shook, and the trees tilted and fell.
With such momentum, it would be difficult for Longhua Church not to notice it.
…
At the same time, deep in the Dragon Transformation Nest.
It is located among the mountains and seems to be isolated from the world.
The Longhua Church built temples and a large number of magnificent dragon god statues here.
At the intersection of the central valley stands a giant nine-headed dragon statue hundreds of meters high.
The nine dragon behaviors of the Nine-Faced Dragon God are all reflected.
The dragon's neck is curved and combined with the dragon's body to form an arch.
They love the Dragon God and they want the Dragon God to be everywhere.
The statues vary from small to large, scattered from the periphery to the center.
Pious church monks often come here for retreat with the idea of pilgrimage and admiration.
One of the aspects of meditation is to gain insights and carve them into a statue of the Dragon God.
Many strong men from the church who understand the Dragon God's rules will come here to understand them.
In terms of foundation, Longhua Church is much stronger than Calamity Raven Church.
After all, they worship the Supreme Dragon God.
Both faith feedback and power acquisition are much stronger.
However, the Longhua Church is not the only church that worships the Dragon God in the Endless Continent.
The most famous is the Dragon God Church.
It is directly named after the Dragon God, which makes it even more orthodox.
This is also true.
The Dragon God Church is a super-first-class church in the Endless Continent.
Believers even include some dragons.
The church enshrines the Dragon Ancestor Altar, and it is said that divine gifts are quite frequent.
Their soldiers are also called Dragon God Warriors.
Compared with this, Longhua Church is much worse.
But the two are still somewhat related.
Dating back to ancient times, the founder of the Dragon Transformation Church was a certain high-ranking bishop in the Dragon God Church.
Therefore, although the Dragon God Church does not publicly take care of the Longhua Church.
But there is definitely a lot of help secretly.
This is also one of the important reasons why the Dragon Transformation Church can gain a firm foothold in the Kingdom of Avalon.
From this point of view, the Calamity Raven Church can only be regarded as a second- or third-rate small church in the end.
No wonder even those planning to build a huge city are eager to move out.
This is the reason why the foundation is weak.
On the other hand, the foundation of Longhua Church is much deeper.
Dragonization Homecoming is the second most important area in the church besides the base camp.
There are two dragonization legions stationed here.
They are the Blood Dragon Legion and the Ringing Legion.
In addition, there are often ascetic apostles who come here to take turns.
There are dozens of powerful people above the legendary level, and there are also two high priests with demigod strength.
This includes several real dragons with good strength.
There are both five-color dragons and metal dragons.
In addition, there are various dragonized beasts.
The scope of application of the dragonization ceremony is very wide, and many creatures can be affected by it.
Whether it is the church's foundation or its comprehensive strength, the Dragonization Church is firmly at the top of the second-rate level.
Its full strength is enough to shake part of a kingdom.
Every continental year, a grand dragonization celebration will be held here.
The time is the first day of autumn in the continental era, which is a week later.
Although the Endless Continent is vast, the climate in various places is unpredictable and has its own characteristics.
But there are still solar terms units that use the change of seasons across the entire continent as the year.
When the continental era enters autumn.
Most areas will gradually cool down, and places like the North, where snow falls all year round, will be even colder.
A large number of frost magic elements will be more abundant.
After autumn, there will be a good harvest.
At this time, the original vitality of the Dragon Nest will be more intense.
At this moment, busy believers can be seen everywhere in the entire central area. They often have different degrees of dragonization, and their body strength is far beyond that of ordinary humans.
Heavy stones are carried by hand.
There are also a large number of carvers and magic pattern masters who are responsible for arranging large ritual arrays.
There are several huge dragons in the sky, at least at the level of old dragons, flying and wandering.
The dragon-like ground beast with a ridge of hundreds of meters high on its back carries a palace and lies dormant on the ground.
There are ascetics meditating next to the statues scattered near the central area.
Their aura is obscure, and no one can tell how strong they are.
Each ascetic monk has a different body shape, the big one is comparable to a behemoth, and the small one is about the same as a dwarf or a gnome.
These ascetics were all wearing hooded robes, and from time to time one or two of them would suddenly have a feeling and stand up.
Either half of a dragon wing would emerge, or a dragon thorn would pierce out.
The path of dragon transformation is to imitate the real dragon, take its essence, and integrate it into oneself.
What is perceived is also the rules of the real dragon.
The busy believers nearby have long been accustomed to these strange scenes.
In order to obtain the blessing of powerful power, most believers have more or less dragon characteristics.
Therefore, even the lowest-level believers in the Dragon Transformation Church who are responsible for doing chores are much stronger than ordinary human farmers.
There are special aromas of oil floating in the air in the central area, which can eliminate fatigue.
Because there is a huge brazier in each of the four directions.
There are pieces of burning oil in it.
Mysterious chanting echoes in the distance.
It sounds like dragon language, but it is not.
The most peculiar thing is the elemental magic here.
They alternated in an orderly manner, no longer mixed and scattered like the outside world.
Above all this, two figures floated side by side, observing the progress below. (End of this chapter)
