Chapter 830 The Dragon Spirit And The Origin Of Dragons.
His father didn\'t see a problem with him wasting his time. He declared with too much joy, "It was fun for me so I allowed it."
"I think that I should just give up." Dylganihl said sullenly. "I am not the ignorant origin god I used to be. I have a supreme law so I should know that it is impossible to sneak up on a world god. Maybe I should give up on pranking you entirely."
"We both know that you won\'t stop trying. Don\'t worry though, you will have a much better chance when you become a world god. Then you will be able to sneak up on me." His father encouraged him.
"You really think so?"
His father answered with certainty, "I am certain of it."
Dylganihl became excited at the prospect of sneaking up on his father. He is surprised or excited that his father thinks he will become a world god. That is a foregone conclusion. If he can\'t become a world god, then no one can. On the other hand, the fact that he will be able to sneak up on his father means he is not a mediocre world god. After all, there are very few world gods that can sneak up on him.
"Now, tell me why you have come?" Tssandulighafan asked.
"I have made some progress in the preparation for the era of conquest."
He came to inform his father of his progress in the preparation for the era of conquest. Dragons are scattered throughout the realm of high heaven. They have a home plane but it is overpopulated and dragons don\'t like to share territory so they leave the plane when they become young adults to find their own turf.
It means they are a scattered force. Bringing them together is difficult without the aid of the dragon spirit. Dylganihl had to painstakingly gather his friends and acquaintances over a period of 3 origin cycles before he accumulated enough dragons for his cause. It would have taken longer if not for his ability to bypass divine planes and go to any plane.
"That is good. You are doing well. I am sure that you won\'t have any problems making a high enough contribution to the success of the era of conquest." Tssandulighafan said.
"I won\'t be a problem at all." Dylganilh agreed. "I wish we could have used the dragon spirit. Things would be so much easier and more fun."
Tssandulighafan disagreed. "What you have is already enough. The dragon spirit cannot be controlled by a single person and it cannot be taken lightly. It will only move when there is something important to the entire dragon race. A mere era of conquest is not enough to rouse it."
The dragon spirit is the residual spirit of the dragon ancestor. Dragons are not a race that was created in the high-heaven realm. They were introduced into the realm by the dragon ancestor who left behind his Will when he was leaving the realm. That Will became the dragon spirit.
The dragon spirit is connected to every dragon and it serves the function of overseeing and ensuring the safety of the entire dragon race that originated from the realm of high heaven. It is the only one that can do so since no dragon is worthy of leading other dragons. Dragons can\'t have dragon gods because of their pride. Their pride also won\'t let them elect someone to make rules for them.
The dragon spirit can call all the dragons to arms when they are threatened but the era of conquest is not enough for the dragon spirit to become agitated. Frankly, the era of conquest is not a threat to the dragon race. The destruction of the entire realm won\'t affect dragons much. Most of them are already in the upper realm and the rest can escape. The weak dragons can be protected and moved away.
The dragon spirit is too objective to care about the destruction of the realm of high heaven. The destruction of high heaven is certainly bad but it is only bad because it is the home plane of the dragon. They will certainly miss their home plane if it gets destroyed. But dragons have become too powerful a race to be bothered by the destruction of one realm tree regardless of whether it is their home plane or not.
The dragons of high heaven are not the only dragons in the void universe so dragons won\'t cease to exist in the universe if the realm of high heaven is destroyed. The dragon ancestor was so powerful that he seeded several realm trees with his descendants. And to top it off, dragons are just like world beasts, they can become world gods without the assistance of the realm tree.
Dylganihl said wistfully, "It would have been cool to have the dragon spirit on our side though. All the dragons will take flight. I have heard of it but I have never experienced it. We will crush realm after realm in our wake. We dragons will be unstoppable."
If the dragon spirit were to support the high heaven realm then no amount of scheming by disgruntled world gods can make the realm lose in the era of conquest.
Tssandulighafan sighed as he reminisced. "Ahh. I have experienced two of the wars initiated by the dragon spirit. That was ages ago when I was very young. The dragon spirit has fewer and fewer reasons to call us to arms because there have been fewer things that can threaten us. We all raced to the skies and answered the call. Then we congregated on a nasty parasitic race. We burned down plane after plane the last time to eliminate that race. It was so exciting. I saw some of my old uncles and aunts that I thought were dead."
