Chapter 2980: Historical Turning Point

~8 min read 1,547 words

The Holy Golden Dragon Empire also has a god, referred to by the gold dragons as the 【Golden Dragon God】, but that is merely a fabricated Golden Dragon God; after the dragons defeated the elves and the gold dragons won the dragon civil war, the 【Golden Dragon God】 was born.

Saville had seen theological treatises regarding the 【Golden Dragon God】 in the Golden Dragon City Library, which mentioned the origin of the dragon god; later dragons studied it with an academic mindset rather than worshipping it as a god that could not be looked upon directly.

Indeed, in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, the faith in the Golden Dragon God is already very common, but it is more like the religions on Earth, serving as a spiritual sustenance for the gold dragons.

It is even closer to a lifestyle habit or a traditional custom, being more secular rather than sacred.

The priests of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire have also never demonstrated Divine Magic; rather than being priests, they are more like theological researchers, and because there is no True God, the gold dragons of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire have never thought of becoming a True God.

In all likelihood, there is also no such god-making technology as the Ascension Ritual.

But the Main Plane is different; the Main Plane has gods, and there are even mortals who have ascended to godhood. The Princess is a confirmed case of a mortal ascending to godhood, and the Elf Main God is a case of mortal ascension to godhood that Xia Duo suspects.

When the Main Plane is invaded, the Lord of Radiance might not intervene, but the Princess and the Elf Main God, who likes to interfere in the mortal world, will not fail to act.

This is the absolute advantage of the Main Plane.

The reason why there is such a huge difference between the two planes in the field of 【God】, besides the differences in the development of the planes themselves, is that the existence of elves is also a reason that cannot be ignored!

As for why the two known small Habitable Planes both naturally evolved intelligent beings like humans, elves, and dragons, Xia Shao also has no answer.

Even the War Spells of my Floating City are only 11th Circle; it is not that they cannot be higher, but considering the overall efficiency, 11th Circle is the optimal solution I can achieve at present, and this solution is enough to deal with the vast majority of situations.

It is assumed that the Holy Golden Dragon Empire is not much higher than 13th Circle.

Only Divine Power can perform dimensional strikes; the advancement that the Great Arcanists of the Netheril Dragon God are desperately pursuing now is actually reaching a realm close to a god through purely arcane paths. (The Ascension Ritual is an alternative)

For example, the 【Blue Crystal Plane】 has native murlocs but no native humans, because there is no environment for humans to survive there, and no matter how it evolves, it cannot evolve them.

In this regard, because of the existence of gods, the Main Plane might even be progressing faster than the Holy Golden Dragon Empire!

It is used by the Red Heart Alliance Projection Plane to manufacture the Ultimate Arcane String.

If the elves there possessed a True God, or could contact an Elf True God, then the history of that plane would not be what it is now.

After all, one side has already seen a tangible ceiling, while the other is still under an intangible ceiling.

The native elves of the Main Plane are Wood Elves, and there are some other elves that are now very rare; the same goes for dragons, which are numerous in variety.

From the moment the elves from the Other Plane arrived at the Main Plane, the history of the Main Plane experienced an extraordinarily huge turning point.

Spells start from the 10th Circle, and for every circle level increased, the complexity goes up another step; the general trend is exponential growth, and the highest circle spell Xia Shao knows is only 13th Circle.

But for some reason, the Ruier of this plane was sealed by the dragon race, and the elves picked up a bargain, which led to the later Dragon Madness Mythallar; until now, that Ancient Dragon God is still in a state of being sealed, which is the King-Slaying Star.

It is also because of the real existence of gods that Xia Shao is confident in believing that the Holy Golden Dragon Empire will not be much higher than the Main Plane in terms of Magic Theory.

In the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, the most numerous are gold dragons, but in the Main Plane, the number of gold dragons is the fewest; of course, this is the current number, and Xia Shao has no relevant data for ancient times.

The intelligent life forms such as humans, elves, and dragons on various planes are actually not exactly the same; under the major races, there are many branches, such as the Gold Elves and Moon Elves of the elves, which come from the elves' homeland.

Like the Netheril Dragon God, although 11th and 12th Circle spells were developed, they are essentially 10th Circle spells under the existing theoretical framework, which is also the limit of the Magic Net.

The environment creates the race; Habitable Planes will produce humans, elves, and dragons, Elemental Planes will produce Elemental Creatures, and those between the two will produce creatures between the two.

Of course, the Ascension Ritual of the Main Plane was not brought by the elves from the Other Plane; Xia Shao once came into contact with an ancient elf in the Feres Fortress under the Far North Ice Sheet.

The Ascension Ritual that the Netheril Dragon God obtained from Keman was likely invented by the elves studying Dragon Magic after the ancient war, and it only succeeded in one case until the elf civil war, which is the Elf Main God.

Xia Shao also obtained the coordinates of that plane from the ancient elf at Feres Fortress, but considering that the plane might have been destroyed, or if it was not destroyed, it might contain immense disasters, he did not conduct exploration.

In the era before the other party entered the fortress seal, the elves only had the cultural concept of the "Creation Mother Goddess" but no True God; only the dragon race of that plane at that time had gods.

Currently, the gold dragons of the Main Plane almost only appear in elf countries; the Elf Dragon Cavalry mounts are gold dragons, not other dragon species. The elves use dragons in a way similar to how warplanes are used, except that in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, the warplanes themselves are the masters.

The dragon race of the Main Plane has gods, but in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire plane, the dragon race did not have the concept of gods at the beginning, until the dragons unified the plane, and the concept of gods emerged during the dragon civil war.

After the Elf Main God, no new elf gods have appeared.

These three planes all have intelligent life forms such as humans, elves, and dragons, which should not be a coincidence; Xia Shao speculates that it might be some kind of convergence in Plane Evolution.

It is not even limited to these two planes; there is also the homeland of the Main Plane elves that may have been destroyed, where there were also dragons and humans, only the elves occupied absolute dominance.

Even if the Holy Golden Dragon Empire develops spells to the 100th Circle, this point of essence will not change; in fact, it is almost impossible to develop to the 100th Circle.

The elves of that plane are the same; they did not have the concept of gods at the beginning, and later the gold dragons created the concept of the Golden Ruier, making it even more impossible to give them the opportunity to create elf gods.

If this Universe is large enough, Xia Shao feels that he may very well encounter planes occupied by dwarves and gnomes in the future, and even if the environment is suitable, it is not impossible for Goblins to develop high Wisdom and become the masters of the plane.

Under the existing theoretical framework, the energy consumption and power of 100th Circle standard spells, these basic parameters can be calculated, but as soon as they are calculated, one knows that this spell is basically impossible to appear in the Main Plane.

Or it is just like the Anthropic Principle on Earth; only with the environment that gives birth to these intelligent beings can such intelligent beings be born.

The Mythallar cannot support such spells; even in the Red Heart Alliance Projection Plane, it can only support 13th Circle spells, and spells below this circle level cannot exert a crushing effect on the 11th Circle. (Essentially, they are all 10th Circle)

……

The Holy Golden Dragon Empire plane also has elves, but the elves of that plane are the native creatures of that plane, while in the Main Plane, although native elves existed, the native elves were assimilated by outside elves countless years ago.
