“Fire Dragon Brother, aren’t you the guardian beast of the Fire Clan Secret Realm? Why aren’t you helping the Fire Tribe and instead are eating their people?” Wei Chen asked.
The Fire Dragon replied, “Helping is one thing, but as long as the Fire Tribe isn’t facing an extinction crisis, I won’t intervene. Eating a few of their people? What does that matter?”
“Alright, what do you think about me having killed so many Fire Tribe members before?” Wei Chen inquired.
The Fire Dragon was taken aback. “Brother, as a brother, you wouldn’t be so cruel, would you? Do you want me to eat those dead Fire Tribe members? Let me tell you, I don’t eat dirty things. Once they’re dead, they’re dirty; I only eat the living.”
Well, Wei Chen was completely speechless. What he wanted to ask was why the Fire Dragon had no reaction to so many deaths or if it had ever considered helping when the Fire Tribe was on the brink of extinction. But the Fire Dragon was so oblivious that it wasn’t even on the same wavelength. Better not to ask; it was just too bizarre!
Not eating dead things was somewhat normal, but it became a bit disgusting when the Fire Dragon brought it up.
To have such a natural habit of eating people, the Fire Dragon was truly something else.
“Brother, let me tell you, I won’t eat those from the Fire Tribe once they’re dead. If they’re weak, I won’t eat them either; eating someone too weak just makes my stomach hurt and serves no purpose. In this godforsaken place, I’m picky too. At least they have to be Fifth-Level Deity or above for me to consider swallowing them.”
The Fire Dragon’s comments grew increasingly repulsive, prompting Wei Chen to quickly say, “Stop, stop! You’re making me nauseous.”
“Hehe, don’t worry, brother; I won’t eat you. You have a trace of demon energy in you, and demons are already very rare; I can’t eat that. The human race is too numerous; eating some of them is fine.” The Fire Dragon looked at Wei Chen and chuckled.
Wei Chen waved his hand and said, “Alright then, let’s drop the topic of you eating people. If you come with me to the Endless Divine Realm, you must follow my orders and absolutely cannot eat people at random anymore.”
“Can’t eat at random? So that means I can still eat some? Don’t worry, brother; those whom you can’t defeat will be my targets. Rest assured; no problem at all. Until you grow stronger, I’ll take care of your enemies for you.”
“Fine, fine.” Wei Chen really didn’t want to continue this topic; thinking about eating people was just revolting. These so-called divine beasts and dragons were really no different from wild beasts!
“Fire Dragon, is your current clan leader from the first generation of dragons?” Wei Chen quickly shifted the topic back to something serious; he absolutely couldn’t keep discussing those cannibalistic matters with the Fire Dragon.
The Fire Dragon shook its head and said, "Indeed, our Fire Dragon Clan's leader is the first Divine Dragon created by the Beast God, born after intermarriage with the first Fire Tribe created by the Lord of Fire. Therefore, he is the first generation of the Fire Tribe, not the first generation of dragons. The so-called first generation of dragons only has one, and that is our Dragon God."
"Where is the Dragon God now?" Wei Chen asked.
"I don't know. Perhaps in the legendary First-Level Spatial Plane? The Ancestral Gods are also in that Spatial Plane."
"What about the other divine beasts created by the Beast God?"
"As long as they are first generation, they should be in the First-Level Spatial Plane. Intermarriage, whether within the same clan or with other races, produces what we now refer to as the first generation of ancestors. Those ancestors are in the Great Realm, holding positions like clan leaders among various great clans. In our Divine Beast Clan, many true first-generation ancestors have followed the Ancestral God to the First-Level Spatial Plane."
Wei Chen understood; at this point, he had basically grasped White Out.
The Ancestral Gods—namely, the Beast God, Gold God, Wood God, Water God, Earth God, Fire God, and Demon God—created the first primitive humans and beast races. The demon race refers to beings like flowers, plants, and trees in nature, while the beast race encompasses all "animals" except humans.
Those first-generation ancestors were all very powerful and qualified to follow the Ancestral Gods to the First-Level Spatial Plane. Their offspring from intermarriage—such as between the first human of the Fire Tribe and the first dragon—resulted in what became known as the leader of the Fire Dragon Clan. Similarly, offspring from that dragon and the first Golden Clan produced golden dragons...
The true first generation went to the First-Level Spatial Plane; their descendants are what exist in the Great Realm.
The Great Realm is a world with relatively pure bloodlines and formidable strength. It is also where Bloodshed Shop is located within that Spatial Plane. It is dominated by humans with complex bloodlines who can only cultivate within that realm. Only those who break through their shackles and become Third-Level Deities qualify to enter the Great Realm. Anyone or any beast or demon within the Great Realm does not have access to where the Ancestral Gods and first-generation descendants reside in the First-Level Spatial Plane.
The humans and beasts created later by the Ancestral Gods were not as strong as those from the first generation; their bloodline power diminished over time and spread throughout that universe.
Over time, a complex human world was formed.
Without a doubt, humans possess the greatest power; among the seven Ancestral Gods, humans occupy five of them.
The power of the Beast Clan ranks second. In many Spatial Planes, there are numerous beasts, both ordinary and divine, with a significant overall population. However, compared to the Human Clan, there is a vast disparity. After all, the Human Clan has five Ancestral Gods!
As for the Demon Clan, due to the disappearance of the Demon God, they have left behind very few descendants, making their strength the weakest. It's like in the Endless Divine Realm; for flowers, plants, and trees to cultivate into humanoid forms is incredibly difficult. Only in some special Spatial Planes does the power of the Demon Clan become slightly stronger. Regardless, wherever they are, the Demon Clan remains the weakest, which is related to the disappearance of the Demon God. Otherwise, their strength should be comparable to that of the Beast Clan.
Is Wei Chen's Demon Lotus Bloodline truly a Demon God Bloodline? This question can only be answered by the Fire God.
Wei Chen thought it was likely true. Unfortunately, his current Mental Strength was still too weak; he didn't possess enough power to converse extensively with the Fire God. Moreover, given the Fire God's disdain mixed with pity towards Wei Chen, he probably wouldn't share much information. The fact that the Fire God could summon this fire dragon to assist Wei Chen was already a significant favor.
The Fire God could only help Wei Chen three times on his future path. Wei Chen didn't plan to use such opportunities lightly; each use would diminish his chances. There was no need for it in the Endless Divine Realm or even in the realm where the Bloodshed Shop was located.
He would wait until he reached the Great Realm.
Since he possessed such a bloodline within him, he would eventually have to go to the Great Realm.
After pondering for a while, Wei Chen asked the fire dragon, "Fire Dragon Brother, does your body exhibit ancestral traits that allow you to approach the strength of the first-generation fire dragon or even the first-generation Dragon God?"
"That's right," the fire dragon nodded.
Wei Chen continued to inquire, "What are these ancestral traits like?"
"Typically, a Young Dragon has only two arms before reaching adulthood, but I currently have four. My belly itches quite a bit; perhaps soon I will grow six arms. If I can grow eight arms by adulthood, then there's no doubt I have returned to my ancestral form. Among our clan's powerful elders, they only have eight arms after cultivating for countless billions of years. As for our Patriarch, having ten arms means he is a first-generation fire dragon. The Dragon God created by the Beast God possesses twelve arms."
As the fire dragon spoke these words, a sense of pride gradually shone in its eyes.
Wei Chen didn’t fully understand but decided to wish him well since this fire dragon had achieved so much already.
But why does it feel so strange? The Fire Dragon's way seems a bit off.
Hand?
That gigantic claw, is it a hand?
What the hell!
Wei Chen didn't argue, but his eyes were filled with disbelief.
If that thing can be considered a hand, then what is my hand?
The Fire Dragon was clever; from Wei Chen's expression, it guessed what he was thinking.
"Brother, let me tell you, all the divine beasts that can speak refer to their claws as hands. Humans are the strongest; that's a consensus. Once we reach adulthood, we can transform into human form, and generally, we appear in a normal human shape. If we dragged around such a massive body everywhere, it would take up too much space!"
After hearing the Fire Dragon's explanation, Wei Chen didn't know how to respond. This Fire Dragon had some truly bizarre viewpoints.
What should have been a normal situation turned comical in its presence.
"Fire Dragon Brother, are you saying that you can only transform into human form when you reach adulthood? But your combat power is already so strong," Wei Chen asked.
The Fire Dragon replied, "That's right. Generally speaking, we can only transform into human form during adulthood. However, for the Fire Dragon Clan, adulthood is at the Twelfth Level Divine Realm, and I am already stronger than an ordinary Twelfth Level Divine Realm. So I don't even know when I will be able to transform into human form."
"What about speaking like a human?" Wei Chen asked again.
The Fire Dragon explained, "For noble divine beasts like us, we can speak as soon as we are born. However, for ordinary beast tribes, they can only utter human words once they reach adulthood, and only when they enter true maturity, which is during their middle age, can they transform into human form."
The Dragon Clan is much stronger than those ordinary beast tribes, a fact that Wei Chen could understand.
"Alright, I have no more questions. You go into my True God World and open that barrier; then we can leave. It's really strange how you didn't bother to set up a barrier while I was exterminating so many of the Fire Tribe. Only after everything was over did you create a barrier to block me. It's pointless!" Wei Chen complained.
The Fire Dragon replied, "That wasn't something I did on purpose; it was a Crisis Awareness within the Fire Clan Secret Realm that activated automatically."
"Can you remove it?" Wei Chen asked with a frown.
The Fire Dragon bared its teeth and said, "Isn't that a silly question? The barriers of the Fire Clan Secret Realm were created by me. I can control them however I want; it's just that the Crisis Awareness is something I let be."
With that, the Fire Dragon rolled its eyes and glanced around suspiciously, as if feeling guilty. "Brother, actually, all the Five Ancient Human Gods are female..."
In truth, this was communicated through divine consciousness, so there was no risk of being overheard. Yet the Fire Dragon felt guilty while saying this and instinctively looked around. However, if the Fire God wanted to eavesdrop on Wei Chen and the Fire Dragon's conversation, it would be quite easy for them to remain undetected.
Is the Fire God listening?
"Uh... they're all female? What about the Beast God and Demon God?" Wei Chen asked in astonishment. He had already encountered the fact that the Fire God was female; it was strange that the other gods like the Gold God, Wood God, Water God, and Earth God were also female.
The Fire Dragon nodded. "They're all female; only the Demon God is male. The Beast God has no gender distinction and doesn't have a specific form."
