Emperor Dragon

The warm winter light shines sparsely through the dense coniferous forest.

On the planet Azeroth, among the mountains covered with white snow, Saga and the clones of the god Saga and Sargeras, who had returned to normal size, arrived.

Saga looked around.

The wind and snow swept across the sky and the earth, filling it with the luster of Yingying's soul. While dancing with it, it slowly settled into the core of the planet, forming a strange dream-like scene.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and lowered his eyes to look down.

Saga could clearly see that the seemingly endless soul energy coming from the stars in the universe converged into a vast river, compressing at the end like a substantial sphere, constantly nourishing and strengthening the magical life inside, making it It thrives, and its illusory body continues to solidify.

Saga saw it clearly.

Inside the cocoon-like ball of soul energy is a special life that looks like a giant dragon.

It has shining silver scales with a structure like diamonds. There are three pairs of dragon horns on the top of its head that grow upwards. However, they are not majestic. Instead, they look beautiful and cute. Only the short tips, dragon wings, and limbs are exposed. The tails are also short and thick.

This is a star soul that looks like a young dragon.

And as the soul energy is absorbed, it gradually grows at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"The consciousness I left behind in the Well of Eternity affected the star soul, causing it to identify itself as a dragon."

Looking at the star soul that looked like a silver young dragon, Saga thought silently.

The babbling consciousness in the Well of Eternity is only part of the star soul's consciousness.

Nowadays, almost all intelligent creatures in Azeroth are praying to the moon god related to the star soul. During this prayer process, the thoughts of different intelligent creatures are also shaping the cognition of the star soul.

However, the prayers of these intelligent creatures are very shallow compared to the direct and close influence of Saga.

Among all the shaping of self-awareness, the consciousness of babbling occupies the largest part, so it is not surprising to become a dragon.

"Gee, I'm proud of you."

Saga smiled softly, and his will instantly passed through the obstacles of the planet's earth, stone and soul energy, caressing the little dragon that was growing and gestating in the deepest part, sending out gentle and joyful spiritual fluctuations.

The perception of normal demigods simply cannot penetrate the soul energy that is now everywhere.

but.

The blockade that all the Titans once set up in Azeroth could not restrict Saga, who was stronger than all of them combined. This was not the material world of the Great Circle, and the oppression and restraint were very limited.

Buzz.

The sphere like a cocoon egg shook slightly.

The little dragon didn't wake up, but when he felt the familiar mental fluctuations, he emitted the emotional reaction of Rumu's dependence.

After spending thousands of years with a ray of Saga's consciousness in the Well of Eternity, and with the constant teachings of Saga's consciousness, Yiya's consciousness gradually developed a feeling for Saga that an offspring has for its parents.

"Leave everything else to me. You can grow up well. We will officially meet soon."

It became stable again. From Saga's words, the little dragon was able to concentrate on absorbing the soul energy with peace of mind. It grew faster, from a young dragon to a young dragon, and continued to grow into a young dragon. It grows rapidly, and its body posture changes obviously with almost every breath.

"Ontology, congratulations on your promotion and breakthrough, entering the realm of high-level gods."

"Well, you are now at the limit of a medium-sized god. If you eat more ancient gods, will you have a chance to break through?"

"The chance is not great. At my level, pure quantity is no longer very effective. Quality is needed."

"In other words, do you need an ancient god who is similar to a high-level god?"

"Yes, but the highest level of the Ancient Gods is medium-level spiritual creatures, and the higher ones are not the Ancient Gods, but their creators, the Void Lords."

Because consciousness is connected.

The conversation between Saga and his clone is more like asking and answering questions.

Before the other person says the question and answer, the other person actually already knows it in his heart.

"Lord of the Void, I'm afraid this kind of creature is not simple. I've heard of it not only in Azeroth."

"If there is a chance, I will get you a void lord to eat, so that your life will be upgraded."

Saga stroked his chin and said thoughtfully.

"This couldn't be better for me."

Shen Saga grinned and said: "I really want to taste the Void Lord. I am tired of tools like the Ancient God."

The current clone of God Saga is still an ancient god in essence. Although it has escaped the control of the Void Lord, it is still far inferior to the opponent in terms of personality. If there are no accidents, it will be difficult to break through its own personality and reach the realm of higher gods. .

The most effective way is to devour a void lord.

but.

In the multiverse of Azeroth, the Void Lord has never really arrived. He has been sending the ancient gods to achieve his goals. He is not so easy to meet. As for leaving the multiverse and reaching the realm between multiverses to hunt the void Lord, Saga doesn't think this is a very good idea.

He currently has no understanding of the boundaries between multiverses.

If you get involved rashly, you may get yourself into big trouble.

Although Saga is keen on taking risks, he rarely does things that are completely uncertain. Moreover, he has not yet reached the stage where he needs to take risks outside the multiverse to improve himself, so he does not need to take risks.

Suddenly he seemed to sense something.

Saga raised his head, his eyes penetrated the snowy sky and reached the distant starry sky. His eyes narrowed slightly, as if he saw something.

"If the Void Lord himself comes to the multiverse, the situation will be different."

In the star field thousands of light-years away, a hazy purple light appeared at some unknown time, and was reflected in the pupils of the golden dragon who sensed the abnormality and sensed this place.

Saga is very familiar with this hazy purple feeling.

He had seen it before in the conscious world of Y'Shaarj.

Turning to look at the silent Sargeras, Saga said: "Sargeras, you and my clones stay near the planet Azeroth in case something unexpected happens."

"I'm going to meet an old friend."

Sargeras was slightly startled.

After reacting, he asked solemnly: "So many ancient gods have died, isn't it over yet?"

Saga shook his head slightly and said no more to Sargeras. With a wave of his dragon wings, his body disappeared from the place instantly.

The crystal clear snowflakes are still swirling and falling with the cold wind.

Lifting the dragon's claw and letting the snowflakes fall, the god Saga chuckled and said to Sargeras: "How could the ancient gods end so easily after so many deaths?"

Hearing this, Sargeras was silent for a moment, and then asked slowly:

"The Void Lord is here?"

Shen Saga nodded slowly.

The Old Gods destroyed by Saga are all the Old Gods that exist in the multiverse of Azeroth.

These minions were wiped out all at once. If the Void Lord had not given up on the idea of ​​​​this multiverse, he could only take the risk and come in person.

Once the star soul has grown up, the ancient gods at the mid-level god level are basically useless, and there is no point in creating new ones. Coupled with the strong foreign aid of Saga, it will be more difficult for the void lords who covet this place to attack. Now it is The Void Lord's last chance.

at the same time.

In the vast and silent starry sky, billions of stars shone with faint brilliance, but none of them were as bright as the dazzling scales of the golden dragon.

Ahead is a mysterious star field that is coated with a layer of purple luster.

The golden dragon hovered motionless, watching quietly without making any rash move.

As time goes by, the purple that originally only had a shallow layer on the surface of the starry sky becomes darker and darker, corroding and eroding deeper, turning into a rich and deep purple.

suddenly.

The purple light rolled up like mist, and a whisper of surprise and appreciation came from inside.

"We meet again, magical creatures."

"Now you are qualified to know my name."

call!

Countless purple lights rolled and spread around, and a huge purple eye like a star squeezed out from inside.

It was the Void Lord that Saga had seen in Y'Shaarj's consciousness.

In fact, it's not just Y'Shaarj.

All the Old Gods of the Azeroth multiverse are the creations of this Void Lord, and are his tentacles and minions extending into the Azeroth multiverse.

Now these tentacles and minions have all been cut off by Saga.

As a last resort, it came in person.

However, facing Saga who ruined his plan, the void lord did not show any anger. Instead, his words contained a kind of pure curiosity, like a scholar's curiosity about the unknown.

There was a pause.

More bodies of the Void Lord squeezed in.

A special substance that looks like cuticle and bone wraps the big purple eye, which is as huge as a star. Directly above the big purple eye, there are three much smaller, but also celestial-level eyeballs, one big, three small and four. Together they stared at the golden dragon opposite.

"My name is Vel'Koz, and some creatures who fear me respect me as the Eye of the Void."

As he spoke, more bodies from the Eye of the Void came in.

Behind its eyeballs, from behind the horny bone layer surrounding the eyeballs, three huge and slender tentacles extend from different directions, swimming and twisting irregularly in the starry sky.

Just an eyeball is like the largest star.

Although it was not intentional, every corner of his body exuded a terrifying sense of oppression.

The previous ancient gods, as well as the giant gods Saga and Sargeras, compared their fully expanded sizes with this void lord, and the gap was wider than the gap between a baby and an adult.

"I'm curious as to why you can improve so quickly."

"I see a hidden secret in you."

The Eye of the Void stared at the golden dragon as small as dust in front of him and whispered.

"Want to know the secrets of me? Use your knowledge in exchange."

Seeing that the other party had a desire to communicate, Saga was not in a hurry and started attacking directly, and said calmly.

"I have been to more worlds than you can imagine, and I have endless knowledge. What do you want to know?"

Compared to fighting, or even compared to this multiverse, the Eye of the Void is more curious about Saga itself.

"Where are you from?"

"Void."

"The Void? Is it a realm outside the multiverse?"

"Yes, it seems that you already have a certain understanding of the void. The void is like an infinite ocean, and the finite multiverse is an isolated island existing on the void ocean."

After hearing this answer, even Saga's mood fluctuated a bit.

According to the Eye of the Void, the void is the main body, and the multiverse is just an embellishment? So, how many void creatures like the Eye of the Void exist in this ocean called the Void?

Saga suddenly shuddered.

"With your wisdom, you will definitely understand the greatness of the void."

The purple eyes flickered slightly, and the Eye of the Void invited Saga: "Embrace the Void, you can become a part of the Void, and I will be happy to lead you to the embrace of the Void and become one of us."

Saga did not agree, nor did he refuse directly.

"What does the void look like?"

He changed the subject and asked again.

The Eye of the Void is easy to talk to. It shoots out beams of light from its eyes and interweaves into a purple light curtain, inside which is the scene of the Void.

Boundless, purple and hazy, except for the void creatures of various shapes wandering around inside, and the multiverse that isolates the void and looks like a sphere or bubble from the outside, there is no other life or existence. Matter, nothingness and loneliness.

"It looks boring."

Saga said truthfully.

"No, you can't understand the void."

Eye of the Void asked in a cognitive tone: "What do you think is the ultimate pursuit of life?"

Without waiting for Saga to answer, Eye of the Void asked and answered himself, saying: "Is it eternal immortality? Is it true freedom? Is it infinite power? No, it is growth, it is evolution!"

“No matter what you want or pursue, as long as you keep evolving and evolve in the direction you want, you will eventually be able to achieve it.”

"Pursuit is just the surface, evolution is the truth!"

"Only through extreme evolution can an individual be on par with the universe, or even with the great void, and become the ultimate being that controls everything."

Eye of the Void's rational voice was tainted with a hint of fanaticism.

Saga was silent and lost in thought.

The Eye of the Void recovered and said seriously: "Becoming a creature of the void allows you to gain unlimited power of devouring evolution, get rid of the original shackles, and gain unlimited possibilities."

It's just that the minions created by the Ancient God have what Saga considers to be terrifying and powerful evolutionary abilities.

Saga does not doubt the infinite evolution power mentioned by the Eye of the Void.

But there is no perfect thing?

After pondering for a moment, Saga stared at the Eye of the Void and said, "What is the cost of becoming a void creature?"

The tentacles of the Eye of the Void swayed gently.

"Mainly living in the void, feeding on the multiverse and each other, and once evolution starts, it cannot be stopped. The boiling and surging evolutionary instinct will drive you to devour everything."

"Compared to the infinite potential of becoming an ultimate creature, this price is negligible."

negligible?

Saga couldn't agree.

Living mainly in the void means that the color of life will only be the purple of the void, and will no longer be colorful and exciting.

Feeding on the multiverse and feeding on each other cannot stop, which is even more unacceptable. It means endless fighting and fighting. Although Saga loves fighting, his life is not just about fighting.

As for the evolutionary capabilities gained at these costs.

Saga carefully looked at the Eye of the Void and sneered:

"What you said is very good, but in my opinion, your so-called evolutionary power is only average."

"If it is true that you can evolve infinitely, why are you still like a higher god? You have been stagnant in this field for a long time without growing to a higher level. The infinite evolutionary power you talk about must also have limitations."

Saga was still a legend when he first arrived in Azeroth.

At that time, the Eye of the Void that frightened and corrupted Sargeras already existed, and it was akin to a higher god.

And Saga quickly crossed several huge life chasms from legend, became a high-level god, and caught up with the Eye of the Void. This shows that the opponent's evolutionary ability is also very limited. At the very least, its evolution speed is definitely not as fast as Saga. growth rate.

If it were a normal creature, it might be very emotional, even ecstatic.

But for Saga, the words of the Eye of the Void are not very tempting.

Already like a higher god, Saga still doesn't feel his limit.

Perhaps when he feels that his limit has been reached and it is difficult to make further progress, Saga will consider accepting the invitation of the Eye of the Void, but now Saga does not have much interest.

but.

Letting the clone become a void creature can be considered. (End of chapter)
