It was rumored that the power of a Three-Headed Golden Dragon could rival the Ancient Gods.
There had only been three Three-Headed Golden Dragons in Noscent's history, and they had been the supreme existences among the Chromatic Dragons. Their power was far more superior than what any human could have imagined. One breath could destroy a city and wipe out a race.
Even at the end of the Nesser Dynasty, no Three-Headed Golden Dragon had fallen. When facing the unmatched Charles the Emperor and his powerful subordinates, the three Three-Headed Golden Dragons still managed to tear the void and flee with the remaining Chromatic Dragons to an unknown plane.
It could be said that the Three-Headed Dragons were already legends in Noscent, they were true unparalleled existences. There were even some legends saying that if a Golden Dragon had three heads, it meant that it had stepped into the Eternal Realm.
Of course, legends were just legends. It was unclear whether Three-Headed Golden Dragons were truly eternal.
But one thing was certain, the Three-Headed Golden Dragons could rival Ancient Gods.
And now, an existence on par with an Ancient God was floating amidst the void, not one breath of life in its body, its radiance and power already lost in the river of time.
Indeed, this was a Three-Headed Golden Dragon's corpse.
Lin Yun had seen plenty of corpses on the way. Archmages, Heaven Mages, Elves, Chromatic Dragons... But Lin Yun never imagined to see the corpse of such a powerful existence.
That existence could be said to be able to match a God, there is no force present in Noscent capable of killing it.
How could such a powerful existence fall?
Lin Yun was stunned.
'Wait…' Before Lin Yun could even recover, a shadow rushed over from the void.
'Could it be…'
Lin Yun stood there with a blank expression. He was looking at the shadow floating over and even forgot to control the Planar Path Fragment.
Fortunately, he didn't need to control the Planar Path at the moment as it only calmly floated in the void, waiting for the shadow to arrive.
It drew closer and closer.
As it approached, Lin Yun could see that the shadow had the same dimension as the Golden Dragon, sporting the size of a small hill in the boundless void. As the shadow came ever closer, Lin Yun was able to make out a silhouette.
That was a giant over one hundred meters tall. His lofty and majestic body drifted through the void, motionless as if it had sank in an eternal sleep.
'No way…' Lin Yun couldn't react this time. He was looking in front of him with wide eyes while gasping, speechless.
'That's an Ancient God!'
One of the creatures born alongside the world, appearing when heaven and earth were created. They had the most profound knowledge and the strongest power. They were the start of the world and its original rulers.
In the very old Golden Era, the Gods had created the glorious Ascian Dynasty, bringing about a civilization that could only be described as miraculous. That was the most famous and fascinating period of Noscent, an era of legends.
Unfortunately, in the blank period before the start of the Nesser Dynasty, the glorious Ascian Dynasty fell to its end, as if every god had disappeared overnight, only leaving behind the big Noscent world. Each major race rose one after the other before the Elves and the Dragons ended up sitting on the Throne of Life.
But...
Even the prideful Elves and Dragons didn't dare to say that their Nesser Dynasty could rival the Ascian Dynasty.
Indeed, Three-Headed Golden Dragons were truly unparalleled existences, but that was in the Nesser Dynasty.
The Ancient Gods had already thoroughly disappeared then and the Three-Headed Golden Dragons had no rivals.
Before the Nesser Dynasty, the Ancient Gods were the ultimate existences!
Lin Yun was completely stunned as he watched that scene.
A Three-Headed Golden Dragon's corpse, an Ancient God's corpse...
'What the hell is going on in the Heaven Enlightening Plane?'
'Did a war happen?'
'A war between the Ancient Gods and the Chromatic Dragons?'
There might be no other way to explain the situation. Whether it was the Three-Headed Golden Dragon or the Ancient God, they were both almost unkillable existences, Lin Yun wouldn't believe that someone else killed them. This kind of power was above Noscent. If it truly existed...
