This kingdom, founded with the support of eight Legendary Gold Dragons, had existed for over thirteen thousand years.

The nation's original founders had been humans who followed Dragonkind.

Yet after such a long time, there were no longer any pure-blooded humans within this kingdom protected by Gold Dragons.

After ten thousand years of evolution, the beings living in this region all possessed Bloodline Power to varying degrees.

On this land, its faith had also gradually shifted from polytheism to monotheism.

Although that deity had little need for faith, the billions of beings in the Holy Dragon Kingdom had continuously served it for thousands of years, moving the Platinum Dragon God to bestow blessings upon the nation.

Under their parents' steadfast faith, their descendants could receive the gift of Dragonkind bloodlines, extending their lifespans to three to five times that of pure-blooded humans.

The price was a drastic decline in fertility.

According to records, the Holy Dragon Kingdom had possessed more than seven billion citizens five thousand years ago.

But according to a public record from a century ago, the Holy Dragon Kingdom now had only around 120 million people, less than one-fiftieth of its population five thousand years earlier.

However, ordinary beings here were exceptionally powerful, far surpassing ordinary humans.

Several thousand years ago, the Holy Dragon Kingdom had still used a provincial system.

But because of the drastic population decline, the provincial system had gradually been phased out and replaced by a lord-region system, also known as the Legendary Gold Dragon rule system. The entire Holy Dragon Kingdom was divided into twelve regions, each guarded by a Legendary Gold Dragon.

Within each region, the Legendary Gold Dragons were responsible only for military force, while governance was entirely entrusted to the Dragonkin living there.
