BXBX NOVEL Chapter 539: 533: God of Nature
As the thunder stopped and the clouds dispersed, Goldy reverted to its original appearance. However, its body had become slimmer and more streamlined, moving towards the appearance of a golden pig.
The surface of its body was covered with layers of spotless jade-like scales, around the edges of the glimmering golden scales, which added a touch of mystery and dignity to Goldy.
Smelling the refreshing fragrance of mature medicine around him, David Jones slowly approached Goldy under the protection of the little guys.
“Gurgle?” Goldy spat out a series of bubbles from its mouth, looking around blankly as if searching for the mysterious enemy that Rainbow and the others were guarding against.
Little did it know that the opponent they were guarding against was actually itself.
“Have you forgotten the memories of before?”
Looking at the puzzled Goldy, David Jones was somewhat speechless in his heart.
What kind of taste did that transcendent existence, who claimed to be the nature itself, have to choose to reincarnate as a common and weak Red-tailed Goldfish in the reservoir of Flowery Kingdom?
“Can you find any information about the nature-related Beast?” David Jones turned to look at Gluttonous Beast.
“Roar!” (Please wait a moment, the information about nature is being searched in the database.)
The Gluttonous Beast’s black pupils flickered with light.
“According to the records in the database, the only transcendent existence related to nature, the [‘God of Nature’], existed before the ancient times and enjoyed the worship and offerings of the entire Elf Forest. It was one of the strongest existences of that era.
The territory it governed was vast, covering the present-day Flowery Kingdom and even the Holy Europe Alliance among the six poles of the world. In fact, many scholars believed that the God of Nature was an existence above the Immortals. However, there was no evidence to prove this.”
“There were many races living and thriving in the Elf Forest, one of which was humans. Under the blessing of the God of Nature, humans often seized Beast bloodlines for cultivation, imitating the daily movements of Beasts to gain extraordinary powers for resisting Beasts.”
“However, after the cataclysm, the God of Nature mysteriously disappeared, along with the entire natural zone covering the Elf Forest. As a result, many Beasts invaded the Elf Forest, causing countless races inside the forest to start competing and merging for resources. In the end, humans emerged as one of the outstanding races.”
“There are no records of the appearance of the God of Nature in the information. It is only known that its divine power is transcendent, immeasurable, and possesses the power to dominate the entire world of nature. Even the Ocean Deity from the boundless deep sea has to bow down under its divine power and become its subordinate Beast.”
David Jones: “Ocean Deity?”
If he remembered correctly, the Horned Dragon of the deep sea, which reached the ninth-order Immortal in the Middle Ages, was regarded as the Ocean Deity by the coastal people. The Glaze Dragon he encountered during military training was one of many descendants of the Ocean Deity.
Being able to rule the entire boundless deep sea and have the title of Ocean Deity in the ancient times, the transcendent existence must not be weaker than the ninth-order Immortal Horned Dragon. In other words, the God of Nature is at least an Immortal, or even the Eternal True God that the Origin Emperor had pursued for years without any chance to see.
David Jones looked at the bewildered Goldy with strange eyes.
It was impossible for the God of Nature, who had such high status and possessed subordinate divine beasts, to reincarnate as a salted fish. Could it be that Goldy’s previous life was a follower of the God of Nature?
After all, Goldy’s previous identity announcement was only about half finished.
The more David Jones thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed.
With Goldy’s touching intelligence, the fact that it was a follower of the God of Nature in its previous life and an immortal existence comparable to the Ocean Deity was already exaggerated enough!
David Jones hesitated for a moment and asked Rainbow and the others for their opinions before implementing his idea.
“I want to form a Beast Taming Contract with Goldy. What do you think?”
“Yii!” (Won’t it be too dangerous!)
Rainbow’s Dragon Eyes were a little wary.
It was possible for Goldy’s previous situation to happen again. If it transformed a second time and caused a Trainer’s Arcane Star to burst, everyone would be finished.
“Roar!” (Maybe I should eat it after all!)
The Gluttonous Beast raised its dragon claw, indicating that it wanted to taste the Immortal.
However, Daphne and Lolo objected.
They had been together for so long and developed feelings for each other. It was fine to eat a small piece of Goldy’s scale, but eating the entire fish was emotionally unacceptable.
“Meh!” (Why not kill it and avoid the risk!)
Prudent Loona suggested the safest option.
In her view, since she hadn’t seen Goldy in the future visions, it meant that Goldy’s future would be nonexistent, and today would be its destined doom!
David Jones looked at the little creatures with different opinions and hesitated.
Rainbow was right; if the Arcane Star’s level was not high enough, signing a contract with a high-level creature would be a curse rather than a blessing.
Otherwise, he would have signed a Beast Taming Contract with Lolo when he had broken through the fifth order of the Arcane Star. Instead, he planned to sign a contract with Lolo at the peak of the fifth order, using the massive pure energy feedback from Lolo’s Beast Taming Contract to shorten his cultivation time and quickly advance to the sixth order King realm.
“Fine, let’s keep Goldy in the Mesona Space for now and consider whether to sign a contract later!” David Jones made up his mind.
He shared the same feelings as Daphne and Lolo. After spending so many years with Goldy, he couldn’t bear to kill it and waste its unlimited potential.
Now that he had only one contract position left, he could sign a contract with Lolo first, and once he successfully promoted to King, he would have enough strength to suppress Goldy if he wanted to sign a contract with it.
“Gurgle?”
Goldy, unaware of the thoughts of the others, saw that no one was paying attention to it, so it jumped into the creek and began to playfully spray water at the Gluttonous Beast.
“Pet Name”: ??? (Goldy)
“Pet Type”: Dragon, Earth
“Species Level”: Dazzling King (Bloodline mutation in progress)
“Species Skill”: Water Jump, Dragon Water Absorption, Scale Shedding, Earth Escape, Hidden Dragon Body, Earth Dragon Force, Ripping and Uprooting
“Grade”: Class III Upper Level
“Profile”: Unknown reincarnation of a Giant Red-tailed Goldfish. It is an unparalleled existence and King in a certain part of the waters. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to think so and retains a submissive character, believing itself to be a weakling.
“A Hidden Dragon Ball allowed Goldy to leap two major levels and two minor levels, and also comprehend three skills!”
Looking at Goldy’s completely different information with his Illusion-Piercing Eye, David Jones felt a surge of impulse.
If he fed Goldy all the high-level resources and Dazzling Dragon’s right claw in the Star Ring, could he foster a legendary warrior in the shortest time possible?
Unfortunately, the idea was too risky. David Jones dismissed it after contemplating it and then curiously observed Goldy’s new skills.
“Skill”: Hidden Dragon Body
“Level”: Class VII Rock, Dragon Dual Type Passive Skill
“Profile”: After absorbing the power of the Hidden Dragon Ball, the Fish-Dragon body surprisingly transformed, giving the weak fish body a defense comparable to some Rock-type True Dragons. The Hidden Dragon Scales covering the surface can even ignore any skill’s power below Class VI.
