Blasphemous Twins!
World Calendar Year 422.
The Outer Sea Continent and the Central Continent have entered a period of cold war. 009 and his companions had previously suffered from magic. On the surface, people from both the Outer Sea Continent and the Central Continent have begun to secretly cultivate magic.
However, the war only ceased in the open.
Ye Long threw out his fifth and sixth sons, who were twins and were known as the Blasphemous Twins.
They were a pair of Child of God who were never publicly revealed, so they were not given the surname Dragon.
The fifth son Nage, and the sixth son Yebu.
They do not have the physical form of humans, but they have the ability to imitate the forms of all things, and they often travel by imitating the appearance of some humans.
Their true forms were indescribable, unidentified organisms.
They were born with two fleshy tumors.
Ye Long's expression was indescribable; they were so ugly, they didn't look like normal creatures at all.
If any of them had a dragon's head, Ye Long could hold his nose and tell his people that they were also true dragons.
Aside from the brothers and sisters who Blasphemous Twins, the only person who had ever seen them was the archbishop of the Twin Dragons Church.
The archbishop pleaded with God not to let the two children be born.
Their appearance is utterly blasphemous to the true dragon!
If something like this can be called a dragon, then does that mean any wild or unrefined creature would dare to call itself a true dragon?
It's important to know that there are many Dragon Blood Descendant within the Dragon Empire.
Although he wasn't born to Ye Long, but rather through the continuation of his offspring, the root cause ultimately lies with him.
This number is enormous, and the Twin Dragons Cult's previous advocacy of the 'pure-blood theory' was specifically aimed at them.
However, the Twin Dragons Church did not know how to explain the Blasphemous Twins' form.
If these two things can also be explained as true dragon bloodline, then why can't those Dragon Blood Descendant, who are more like dragons than them, call themselves true dragon bloodline?
This would shake the foundational beliefs of the Twin Dragons Cult.
Especially now that another sect has emerged within the Dragon Empire, the Church of the Mother Goddess.
This is a new sect that evolved after 004 merged into the Dragon Empire.
Because the original status of the twin dragons born from Ye Long and humans was diminished, the status of the Twin Dragons Cult also declined.
However, His Majesty the present and the first emperor were indeed Son of Twin Dragons and of true dragon blood, so the Twin Dragons Cult is still the largest cult within the Dragon Empire.
However, as time went on, Emperor Long Qi lost power, which led to the rapid development of the Church of the Mother Goddess.
The Church of Mother Goddess worships 004 and Ye Long as the main gods, and claims that the child born of the union of the two gods is the descendant of the true god and should rightfully rule the country.
They not only venerate the dragon image, but also worship the original form of the Mother of the Black Goat.
They painted many portraits, but those portraits were difficult for the world to accept; they were not aesthetically pleasing to normal people.
Coincidentally, the Blasphemous Twins perfectly match the image of the Divine Descendant described by the Church of the Mother Goddess. Based on this, the bishops of the Twin Dragons Cult strongly opposed the birth of the twins.
Even the title of "Blasphemous Twins" was given to him by him.
But in the end, these were all minor matters. Ye Long didn't care about sectarian disputes; the emperor could handle them.
His main problem now is some hidden dangers within the league.
Why do I say that? Take the people around him as an example. Even if they formed an alliance, they still harbored their own selfish motives.
Isis seemed honest, but Ye Long had sensed something was off about her a long time ago.
However, she didn't join the alliance willingly; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was coerced into joining.
Meng Qing's casual mention of Isis last time confirmed Ye Long's previous guess.
Meng Qing also suddenly evolved for unknown reasons. Later, he came to him with a crown to form an alliance, but whose crown was it?
Ye Long had the answer, but he didn't reveal it.
"There's a 70% chance that the crown belongs to Death Gun."
Before Death Gun went to chase Lin Feng, he encountered Thousand Throat and died on the way, but he passed by Meng Qing's Sky City on the way.
He couldn't be sure that Meng Qing had snatched the crown, but Meng Qing somehow ended up with an extra crown.
This is tantamount to admitting guilt without being asked.
But since the crown was used to form an alliance, Ye Long couldn't very well break off relations and make things awkward. After all, they were allies, and there was no need to make things too ugly.
Meng Qing concealed many things, but so did the Golden King.
He had always claimed that he was not good at fighting, but when 009 assassinated him, the strength he displayed was completely different from what he described himself to be.
Even within the same alliance, there is a lack of openness and honesty among members, demonstrating just how fragile trust can be between different factions.
However, this is still within an acceptable range, after all, Ye Long has also done the same thing of hiding his trump cards.
Even if someone is a teammate, it doesn't mean you can completely trust them.
So, the problem ultimately lies with 004 Shala.
Ye Long and 004 had a total of six children, but that doesn't mean 004 had six children.
004 thought Ye Long wouldn't find out, but in fact Ye Long had already discovered that 004 had other illegitimate children.
It's unclear who her father was; in any case, she never told Ye Long about it.
Ye Long's attitude was the same as his attitude towards Meng Qing; although he knew the truth, he never pointed it out to her.
Because once things escalate to a point of no return, it will ultimately end badly for everyone.
On the Outer Sea Continent.
Nairasojin, wearing glasses, was still studying the magic book that Lin Feng had given to 009.
Although he had received professional training, even the most professional Qin Leng at the time was only a dabbler, and could not compare with the professional level described in this book.
"It's really profound... The magic we practiced before is incomparable to this."
Although the author of this book is very considerate, he provides a step-by-step tutorial on magic formulas.
However, these magical formulas are too difficult to put into practice, as they are completely different from their previous spellcasting methods.
Especially in intermediate-level magical studies, there is something called performative formulas.
The meaning of this formula is to establish spatial lines, from changes in time to variables of energy, to shape magic into more complex forms.
The description says this thing is very important, but in Nairasojin's opinion, it's just something to make his magic look more impressive.
However, this is indeed a necessary theory for intermediate to advanced levels.
For example, regarding one of the spells, 'Water Dragon King,' which is close to the fifth rank.
The Mental Energy element is transformed into water, but it must also incorporate the separate applications of wind and ice elements, while simultaneously establishing 136 spatial lines with 3776 points of change in between.
At the same time, the control of energy release and absorption must be accurate to the particle level, and the time must be compressed to be completed within 30 seconds to be considered barely acceptable.
Only in this way can the so-called water dragon shape be constructed.
So what would magic look like if we abandoned this so-called performance formula?
It's very simple; it's just a sphere or a line. Those are the most basic formulas for spheres and lines.
Nairasojin scratched his head and then vaguely noticed that he was showing signs of hair loss.
"Sigh... why did I take this job?"
