Chapter 747 - 342: Run! The God of Magic Is a Maniac!!!

"Is this really your Divine Country? Are you kidding me?"

Looking at the big golden egg, which seemed to be the image of the Dragon God’s Harmonization Dao, Lu Wenwu’s doubts grew louder.

He pointed in the direction outside the Dragon Bone Celestial Tower and asked, "No, man, look at the scenery outside, is there anything here that matches your Divine Country as described in the Dragon Race legends?"

"Hmm... it doesn’t match and that’s exactly what I intended," the Dragon God’s voice carried a hint of pride, "I heard your conversation with my descendants, the notion of an information anchor point is interesting."

"Is this the truth?" Lu Wenwu raised an eyebrow, "That whole time theory is just a pretense, right?"

"At least part of it is the truth."

The Dragon God had no intention of hiding, he just held it back directly.

"Then why don’t you tell them the real situation?" Lu Wenwu crossed his arms and continued to ask, "Legend creates faith, faith condenses myth. When one becomes a part of history, it forms an information anchor point, myth begins to take shape, and one ascends to immortality as a god through it?"

"If I’m not mistaken, even if a god dies in the Divine War, as long as legends still spread in the world, the god is not dead, and will eventually return from the legend one day?"

"I don’t know how you obtained this secret, the path to Divinity Transformation should have been erased by now. Not to mention the secret of the immortality of gods... I took a long time to understand this matter myself."

The Dragon God did not respond directly.

But his words already counted as acknowledging everything.

"Many times, the less you know, the safer you are. It’s a form of protection for them, no creature should ascend to divinity again, it’s not a path of evolution, it can only bring destruction."

"Reason? Surely you’re not from a place still under K knowledge, where the more you know, the quicker you die." Lu Wenwu said with a hint of sarcasm, "Hope you can tell me truthfully, otherwise you must fight me."

Though he knew the Dragon God wouldn’t understand, he still wanted to make some snarky comments.

The Dragon God indeed didn’t get it, but he had already learned in a few brief exchanges not to pay attention to such nonsensical words.

"No need to threaten me, you haven’t truly ascended to divinity and yet you already have such astonishing combat strength, you are naturally qualified to know this."

"I can’t guarantee that everything I know is entirely correct, but I will try my best to inform you of all the knowledge and memories in my mind."

"Just hope that when the Second Gods’ War breaks out, you will slightly protect the Dragon Race due to this knowledge."

"That’s a small matter, although you don’t believe it, I do actually carry part of your Dragon Race bloodline."

Lu Wenwu sat cross-legged in the void, reaching a position level with the big gold ball, and said with a smile.

"Tell me more about the Gods’ War, I’m very interested."

The Dragon God didn’t have the habit of being a riddler, he went straight to the topic: "Before talking about the Gods’ War, first I need to ask you a question. What do you think magic really is?"

"My Power of Thought, the power of my mind, what you wish through your heart," Lu Wenwu replied without hesitation, "But I’m not sure about ancient magic, why is there a distinction between the Heavenly Son and Child of the Earth, as well as Dragon Language Magic and Divine Art categories."

"Unfortunately, for the former, I don’t understand either."

The Dragon God’s body shook slightly, like he was shaking his head in response.

"For the latter, I can clearly inform you, this occurs when an individual’s power is enhanced by the collective mindset and becomes extraordinarily powerful, thus giving birth to divine power."

"In other words, gods are powerful beings who grasp laws and concepts, and can manifest abstract concepts into reality to a certain extent, even warp reality to some degree."

"Just like the Dragon Language Magic I created, which is inherited through bloodline, and the Holy Light Court’s iconic forbidden divine art—the Great Resurrection Skill, both are created by gods forcibly twisting reality."

"In their mortal days, the Heavenly Son already possessed powers that could mildly warp reality. When the Heavenly Son ascends to divinity within the collective mindset, this power to warp reality is amplified to an unbelievable degree."

"And such power that can rewrite reality is called Divine Power."

"Divine Power transforms the god’s power into miracles, miracles become part of the god’s myths and legends among the common folk, making the faith of believers more devout, the mindset more pure."

"If it continues, the two form a complete cycle."

"The stronger the believers’ mindset, the stronger the god, the stronger the miracle power, the stronger the believers’ mindset."

"This is the power of gods."

"Oh! I completely get it!"

Lu Wenwu suddenly saw the light and punched his leg.

"So the essence of gods is really coming from the crowd and returning to the crowd, right? That’s just like the emperor in a feudal dynasty, where the ruler is the boat and the people are the water, the water can carry the boat as well as overturn it."

"If legends end, myths change, believers’ faith in gods isn’t devout anymore, and people no longer sing stories and epics in the streets, ultimately, the gods who gained power through believers will thoroughly perish as well, right?"

This time, the Dragon God truly fell silent.

This was something he had silently pondered for many years after "Harmonization Dao" that he barely scratched the surface of.

The somewhat crazy fellow before him just... completely understood it!?
