Chapter 544 - 279: A Discussion About Dragons (Part 3)
"I don’t know what your secret technique is all about. The Bailong Civilization did leave behind a lot of bizarre things. It’s all due to those Dragon Ancestors. But never mind that, anyway, this egg of yours, it’s the new Sea Dragon Ancestor now.
Akuya’s fair hand caressed the Sea Dragon Egg, coming into contact with the most powerful incarnation. The Sea Dragon Ancestor, a spirit-body derived from the same source as the Water Dragon, smoothly absorbed power from her. The water patterns on the eggshell transformed into ocean waves, and the edges of the shell began to grow rapidly, transforming into crystalline fin-like spikes.
This moment revealed that this Demon Egg was anything but ordinary. Even those unfamiliar with such matters would believe that it was nurturing an extraordinary being within.
"First of all, it will grow quickly, becoming a powerful ally for you. Now, with your team being connected to the fate of the world, helping you isn’t too much of a burden. But if it really becomes something like that—"
The pink-haired young girl’s words stuttered a bit.
"I won’t see it that way. I will respect the reborn Sea Dragon Ancestor just as I respect Lord Water Dragon."
Akuya, her face a bit flushed, looked at him for a moment and reluctantly nodded.
This issue was put to rest, as neither he nor Akuya could say for certain what the reborn Sea Dragon Ancestor would be like, whether it would fully obey Li Ang’s commands or break free using the divine authority.
He was trying to cultivate and domesticate demons through the system for the first time and was unsure of the outcome.
He found a previous point of confusion and shifted the topic.
"I had a question earlier, if finding the Creation Wedge allows one to traverse different parallel, ah no, ’Calculation Worlds,’ shouldn’t there be many like them?"
When he first learned about Meimei and Meluna’s background, he didn’t give it much thought, but later he realized the issue.
If there could be the two of them, and they themselves said that the Creation Wedge allowed viewing all calculation records, it indicated that the world had encountered countless destructed outcomes.
If that’s the case, haven’t other "Saviors" attempted the same thing?
Akuya replied, "Since we Six Dragons are part of the world itself, we never have the notion of crossing worlds. But from my knowledge, the biggest reason is that the Creation Wedge cannot be found.
"It’s hidden away by the Eldest Sons. Don’t underestimate them, do you think the fragments of the Creation power held by the Six Dragons and the Dragon Ancestors could compare to the first race created by the gods? They can even develop tools and magic like the current human powerhouses. Or rather, you are like them. In essence, they are the divine spirits depicted in your various mythological stories.
"Although an individual Eldest Son cannot match up to the Six Dragons and Dragon Ancestors, gathering their race’s strength enables them to do things on par with us.
"So, finding the Creation Wedge is a challenge for both us Six Dragons and the Dragon Ancestors. As for Meimei’s side, it was when the world was being destroyed, and its concealment was breached that the Light and Dark Dragon on that side found it."
Li Ang understood her meaning. She implied that the vast majority of "Saviors" failed because they could not even find the Creation Wedge.
Considering it makes sense, as each Calculation World represents failure and destruction. If the Creation Wedge had been found earlier, the fate could have been rewritten. Since they all failed, it means none were found.
"Also, the stronger an individual is, the more difficult it is to cross into another Calculation World due to the significant impact they cause, which would be rejected by the Creation Wedge," the Water Dragon added.
Li Ang nodded; it seemed reasonable and served as a supplementary explanation for why various existences haven’t traversed worlds.
He then thought, "Have the Dragon Gods not communicated directly with the Creator God, how do they know about these things?"
The Water Dragon pointed to its head, "It’s like a remnant thought left by the gods, things we naturally know."
That’s all the information it had to convey. Afterward, Li Ang asked her to share more about the Elf Country, recording the details.
After finishing the talk with the Water Dragon, there was no need for the group to stay together, and they could return to their various tasks.
Li Ang, with his team members, noticed Meluna, lurking nearby, feeling a headache just looking at her.
Fortunately, she began considering his mood, noticing he didn’t want to deal with her, and refrained from charging directly up to him.
Once back at the treetop sanctuary, Li Ang, still a bit dizzy from the sudden revelations, tried contemplating the next specific steps, when Meimei visited him again.
