Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 163 Black Sun, Second True Form

Noah swallowed six blood-origin fruits in a row. Judging from the quantity alone, it was comparable to all the blood-origin fruits he had swallowed before. Noah thought that this time, he could still get guidance from his ancestors' bloodline.

But he waited for a long time, but there was no movement. After all, he saw a creature that looked like a dragon god last time, maybe it was a dragon king.

But no matter what it was, it was a great existence that was currently beyond his reach. Even if he could just take a look and observe its true form, that would be good.

The most important thing is that he doesn't have to pay any extra price, and there will be unexpected surprises. Unfortunately, perhaps because of his last sleep transformation, his bloodline promotion was too special, so he received many guidances from the ancestral golden dragons related to his bloodline.

This time, although his bloodline also evolved, it did not involve the roots, so he could not obtain the ancient gift from his bloodline.

"If you don't give me any guidance, I'll find it myself!"

The crisp and sweet fruit breaks in the mouth, and an indescribable sweetness and freshness, accompanied by a rich vitality, spreads throughout the body.

The golden dragon's whole body involuntarily relaxed. This was a fruit completely different from the blood-origin fruit, and it brought Noah a completely different kind of pleasure.

The rich life energy quietly repaired the few hidden injuries and minor damages on the golden dragon's body, and promoted the further growth and strengthening of its scales, teeth, claws and nails.

However, this was only a side effect. The familiar feeling of falling that Noah had experienced once came over him. A vast, primitive, ancient world replaced the nebula and golden tree that were slowly rotating in front of Noah's eyes.

"What is it this time?"

Noah was searching the earth with familiarity for some ancient beast that could give him guidance. Those beasts that could reshape mountains and rivers and transform the terrain just by moving were too conspicuous. However, each one was so blurry that it was difficult to see its full appearance. Only vague shapes could be seen.

Only when Noah concentrates, the images of these giant beasts will become clear in his eyes. Without any clear target or direction, the Golden Dragon relies entirely on his own feelings to find ancient beasts for reference.

Finally, Noah found a volcanic area where magma was flowing everywhere and flames were burning in the air. Scarlet lightning kept falling from the sky. The chaotic elements caused wind, mist, and blizzards to fall. This harsh environment was like hell.

"It's up to you!"

In such a harsh environment, there was a giant beast moving around in it, behaving casually and calmly. It was a giant beast with a roughly black and red color. As Noah's eyes locked on it, the image of this giant beast suddenly became clear.

With four legs and two wings, and a body structure similar to that of an ancient dragon, this did not surprise Noah at all. There were many creatures with similar appearances to dragons in all the material worlds.

These dragon-like creatures are called dragon-like creatures, pseudo-dragons, and dragon-like creatures. Among them, the extremely powerful species, even more powerful than most true dragon species, are called native dragon species, or primitive dragons.

Therefore, dragon is not a stereotyped definition. It is a general term for a certain type of giant beast that has reached the extreme in the biological field. Even if these huge monsters have no blood relationship with each other, they can all be called dragons.

At this moment, according to this standard, the giant beast that Noah was staring at was undoubtedly a true dragon. It was an evil beast that made Noah think of concepts such as destruction, devastation, natural disasters, and death at the first sight.

That volcanic area that is like hell, or perhaps even worse than hell, may have come into being because of its existence.

"What a monster!"

When the image of this monster became clear in front of Noah's eyes, the golden dragon looked carefully at its shape and the composition of its body tissues, and couldn't help but sigh.

Because every part of its body seemed to be born for killing and destruction, with sharp blade scales growing day by day, covering the entire body of this terrifying monster.

It can be imagined that anything that comes into contact with it, whether it is a living thing or something else, will be torn apart by this body of terrifying blade scales. It is just like having countless sharp blades cast on the body. It is hard to imagine how a living thing can grow such a structure.

Not only scales, but also a dragon horn structure similar to that of dragon clan's dragon horns on its forehead. The difference is that the dragon horns of dragon clan are mostly symbolic decorations and have no practical use. Although the dragon horns are very hard, no dragon will use them in actual combat, not even the most warlike red dragon.

However, the horns on the giant beast's head were like countless spears and swords overlapping each other, forming two pairs of huge dragon horns that curved forward and toward the sky. There were so many sharp thorns on them that it made one's scalp tingle, and these thorns combined into even larger horns.

It is hard to imagine what the scene would be like when this giant beast charges and pierces its horns into the opponent's body. I'm afraid no creature would be able to withstand such a penetration, and even mountains and the earth would be torn apart easily.

This terrifying monster was born for destruction. It had strong and powerful limbs and fierce and sharp claws. Even a light tap could easily penetrate the volcano.

However, what caught Noah's attention the most was this ferocious monster of destruction, which had a pair of huge black wings that could perfectly wrap around its body.

As it soared in the sky, it looked like the darkness that was about to spread to the world, or like a dark sun emitting an ominous light, making people wonder whether it would tear the sky apart, shatter the earth, and destroy all living things in the world.

How bad must the environment be to be like this? Or how strong must the desire for destruction be to evolve into such a form?
Noah could not imagine it, and it was difficult for him to understand it, but that did not stop him from concentrating on observing every detail of the giant beast. There were many things he could learn from this evil beast.

Spells and words are certainly useful, and appear elegant and calm when used in actual combat. However, in the most dangerous and worst battlefields, the survival rate of spellcasters is most worrying.

Not only are they vulnerable to targeted attacks from the enemy, but more importantly, casting spells consumes too much energy. Once their strength is excessively depleted and not replenished in time, they lose the ability to protect themselves, and the outcome on the battlefield can be imagined.

Therefore, a body strong enough to crush and tear everything is the greatest guarantee of survival on the battlefield. In a harsh battlefield where there is no escape, the only one who can hold on to the end and survive must be a warrior.

However, although Noah had many ideas, he was definitely unwilling to give up his kingly and noble golden dragon form.

Let alone the question of practicality or whether it can fight, the importance of appearance in the dragon race is no less than that of any other race, and even more important. The red dragon, the leader of the color dragons, even as a golden dragon, has to admit that it is the most beautiful of the color dragons, and its appearance is really that of an evil dragon.

The two little dragons he raised, Baal and Aurora, were able to gather a group of monster tribes in the mountains with their looks when they were just young dragons. If the white dragon tried the same thing, he would probably be thrown into the pot and stewed on the spot.

Not to mention the Color Dragon, even he himself has enjoyed the benefits of good looks. The Gemological Society can be successfully established, and Noah can serve as the head of the society. As a golden dragon, his good looks played a vital role in it.

Although his appearance, especially his pair of dragon wings, is considered unorthodox in the eyes of Dragon Father Angelis, beauty is beauty, and his majesty and domineering will not change because of any dragon's aesthetic.

There are now more young dragons in the Gemological Society than when it was first established, and every dragon has experienced battlefield training.

Although some dragons died in the war because of their fight against evil, this did not damage Noah's prestige. Instead, it further established Noah's majesty, because Noah completed revenge for them, and everything he did was impeccable.

"Perhaps, I can evolve into a second form that is made for war!"

Since he couldn't make a choice, Noah chose to take it all. How could bloodline evolution be so inconvenient? If he had to give up some of the advantages that had already been determined, what kind of evolution was that?
If Tidel can have a second form, why can't he have a second form?
For a golden dragon that is about to transform its transfiguration into an innate ability, evolving a second form is not a difficult task. However, if it wants to evolve a second form with combat power equal to that of its original form, the difficulty level will be maxed out.

As for changing into a combat form that is stronger than the original form, don't even think about it. It is simply impossible. It is like a mortal without any extraordinary abilities trying to fly into the sky by stepping on his left foot with his right foot. It is absurd and violates the basic rules.

Although it is impossible to be stronger than the original form, it is possible to sacrifice some basic abilities and strengthen other abilities in a targeted manner, evolving into a second form that is more suitable for the battlefield, thus strengthening itself in disguise.

"In a truly high-level battlefield, even legendary mages cannot summon elements on a large scale. Therefore, they can weaken or even give up their perception and control of the elements and strengthen their bodies in all directions... Isn't this the Red Dragon route?"

Noah gradually sorted out his thoughts, but as he was sorting them out, the golden dragon suddenly felt something was wrong. It seemed that his thoughts had deviated from the orthodox path of the metal dragon.

"No, we cannot deny each other just because we are hostile. The fact that the colored dragons are still active in various planes is enough to prove that their evolution and reproduction path is by no means wrong, but represents another different kind of correctness."

Jin Long quickly reflected on himself and stopped himself from denying the other party because of the opposition.
"Red dragons are indeed a species of dragons born for the battlefield. I need a second form that fits the battlefield, so it is inevitable that I will overlap with it."

"But even if we overlap, I will be superior to the Red Dragon in all aspects!"

The Golden Dragon made the final decision and began to make targeted changes and adjustments. The red blood flame burned on his body, providing the most basic driving force for Noah's ideas.

Even the most absurd idea can become reality at this moment, because there is enough power to support and verify all the ideas proposed by Noah, not to mention that there are real cases right in front of Noah, providing reference for his ideas.

"Not enough, not enough!"

Noah was not satisfied with just one case reference, but he soon discovered that he was not excluded and his consciousness still remained in this primitive and wild land.

"profound!"

Noah understood that this was the natural fruit that he had gradually accumulated over the past five years. It was impossible for it to be consumed so easily like the first time. He still had more opportunities.

So Noah's eyes began to scan the earth again, looking for more references for existences that were similar or close to this destructive beast.

It didn't take long before Noah found another evil beast with a pair of pale horns and thorn-like scales all over its body. It also had a skeletal structure similar to that of a dragon. Judging from its strength and performance, it could also be identified as a dragon.

The densely packed bones would make any living creature retreat. The terrifying bone spurs could not conceal its muscular muscles and strong limbs. Even its dragon wings had extremely developed muscles and contained the terrifying power to split mountains. The thick and long dragon tail was its most powerful weapon of attack.

"He abandoned the ability to control the elements and influence nature, and only pursued extreme physical strength!"

According to modern standards, monsters that don't have even the slightest elemental perception and control ability are basically classified as wild beasts.

Judging from Noah's vision, the monster in front of him is worthy of being called a dragon. It is a giant beast hunter, the embodiment of a certain natural will, and an existence used to maintain balance.

"Really? There are all kinds of monsters!"

Noah was amazed at this monster that had strengthened its flesh and blood to the extreme. Even now that he had his own ideas, he felt that the existence of this monster was too extreme.

In this wild land, monsters of similar nature can be found everywhere. Noah also saw giant beasts that devoured metal veins. Their body structures were even more peculiar, with bones, flesh, and the outermost layer of scales that looked like armor, all mixed together with almost no clear distinction.

But even this monster with biological characteristics but also metallic properties, even if its body is as heavy as a mountain, it can fly from the ground with its innate power.

"What a magical creature! Could it really have evolved naturally?"

Although he had seen many ancestral dragons and even an ancestor that was suspected to be the Dragon King, the giant beasts that roamed in this wild world still amazed Noah and gave him countless enlightenment and inspiration.

"I know what kind of second form I need."

It is not advisable to copy and paste. What Noah needs is to extract the essence and learn from its strengths, and a brand new form will gradually grow and take shape.
