The Star Flower Travel Corps already knows about those Primordial Beings, so Agni continued.
"Until today, the purpose of the Bailong Sect has been pure, which is to seize the power of the Creator God. They seem to respect the Dragon Ancestor and have even tried worshiping us, the Six Dragons, but their purpose is not to serve us but to discover a method to forge a Dragon God and reshape the world."
Li Ang glanced at Farina, even the Dragon Witch looked shocked, unaware that Bailong Sect had such a real purpose.
As of today, Bailong Sect as a cult has become nothing compared to the Ancient Era, hiding in dark corners under the guild’s management like a lost dog, unlikely to restore its ancient glory.
But this also means they will be more crazy and twisted, more dangerous.
Farina looked serious, Li Ang could sense she realized Agni spoke of something she didn’t even know, indicating that what the Fire Dragon was about to say was even more crucial.
"Why didn’t you go and destroy them?" Zoe asked.
"That was after the world fractured, the Six Dragons had to maintain the world from being torn apart, busier than today. And the Dragon Ancestors were a group of chaotic bastards themselves; having mortals worship them made them very happy, their offspring even more so."
Li Ang said to the young girl, "What the Dragon Gods care about is the continuation of the world. The level of Bailong Civilization is far beyond that of the Primordial Beings, and they don’t need to take action personally."
"At that time, I had already decided to destroy them, and with Thanatos, unlocked the Fire and Dark Lock, but before we took action, the island of that civilization had already sunk."
Agni chuckled: "At the peak of Bailong Civilization, they really created a vessel attempting to contain the descent of the ’Creator God.’ What was beyond the understanding of us Six Dragons and the Dragon Ancestors was that Father God really descended."
Dorothy was surprised: "Does He still exist? I mean no disrespect, I want to ask..."
Li Ang said: "It should be similar to the ’Star Soul Prototype Bahamut’ we’ve seen."
"That’s right," nodded the Fire Dragon, "that vessel combined with some unexpected force, transformed into an Alien Dragon God, whose power seemed specifically born to target the Dragon Race. The Bailong Civilization built on the Power of Dragon was completely unable to resist its flames, with the civilization’s center being scorched by the Alien Dragon God’s breath, and even the entire island being pierced through."
Agni said: "Mentioning this is primarily to say, I have already detected a similar aura lingering around you."
His words made everyone’s expressions serious.
"Yes, I can summon that Great Dragon," Zoe said directly.
"Hmm..."
Agni pinched his chin, observing Zoe.
"Little girl, you have multiple forces swirling within you. The origins of some of these forces are even uncertain to me; you are not a regular person."
Zoe didn’t show much change in expression, just glanced at Li Ang, while Meimei wore a "I told you so" expression.
"When I came, I also flew over the island built by mortals and sensed residual parts of the Creator God’s power, undoubtedly."
Agni said: "But even we do not understand why Father God suddenly manifested; we are merely fragments of Him. These manifestations have less total power than us, but their form of power is quite advanced."
He said seriously: "Whatever the case, each time Bahamut manifests, it involves a world-impacting situation. Since you can summon one of His incarnations, it shows you are closely connected with the world, precisely why I intend to reveal some things to you."
Agni was about to continue, but Zoe suddenly said: "I can’t summon Bahamut alone; there’s also Ivynis. You are so powerful; can you rescue her?"
"Where is she?"
"I don’t know."
"I see. Oh, thank you."
ALulu brought tea, served it to the guests, and then sat down beside them.
"We only know she’s controlled by a force behind the Empire, involving demons," Li Ang said.
"Demons... they might be hiding in another dimension, making it hard for me to act without pinpointing them."
The Fire Dragon appeared willing to help with busy matters, but Farina quickly explained that the true bodies of the Six Dragons are constantly in the Divine Hall maintaining the world’s operation. Without their regulation, the already fractured world would continue to collapse, so unless there’s a genuinely great disaster, they won’t appear in their main body, as any random action might spark chaos among the world elements.
"Where do demons actually come from?" Andasu suddenly asked.
The red-haired man, with flame eyes flickering firelight, glanced at Andasu, making her tremble all over, suddenly unable to move, only to breathe a sigh of relief after his gaze shifted away.
"The original demons are the culprits causing the world to be on the verge of collapse, thus receiving the curse of the Creator God, unable to easily enter the Material and Magic Power Dimension of Nebis."
"Are they Primordial Beings?"
"Yes."
Agni nodded, looking at Li Ang’s left arm, "With your current strength, it’s still better to break off all relations with them."
"That might not be easy," Li Ang chuckled, "the empire currently causing trouble has a demon with an eye characteristic behind it."
"An eye? I haven’t heard of that, should not be an original demon."
"Are there subsequent beings cursed into demons?" Li Ang realized this was important information.
"Yes."
Agni provided valuable information, but he didn’t understand the "Demon of the Eye," unable to offer more about the Eye of God.
The Fire Dragon steered the topic back to what he originally intended to discuss: "You are key mortals, the more crucial thing at present may not be demons, but that flames are awakening."
Flames are awakening?
Everyone looked at each other, even Farina did the same.
"Aren’t you the flame itself?" Li Ang spoke up.
"Not the flame itself; usually, mortals refer to us Six Dragons as the ’Six Extremes Supporting the World.’" Agni slowly recounted the creation myth when the world was formed.
After the Creation Dragon God forged the world, power diffused, with those parts maintaining the world’s continuation forming the supportive forces of the Earth, Fire, Water, Wind Light, and Dark Dragon Gods. Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind are the primary elements constituting the world, Light and Dark are cyclical entities from outside the world and will return there.
Those negative forces became the Dragon Ancestors, inauspicious entities expelled when the world was formed, and only by returning to the luminous Material Dimension can they supplement towards the complete power of the Creator God, hence the invasion of Material Dimension from the Magic Power Dimension is their innate instinct.
"Besides the positive and negative forces, there are leftover powers of the Creator God."
Agni said: "Whether it be the Six Dragons or Dragon Ancestors, they lean more towards the ’Dragon’ side of the Creator God, as His ’God’ side manifested as the world itself. The flowers, soil, rivers, living beings you see are of this origin.
"The ultimate spirit nurtured by the Material World, the greatest spirits, also exist in the form of the Four Elements.
"They are Ignis, the Great Spirit of Fire, Sable, the Great Spirit of Earth, Flos, the Great Spirit of Wind, and Gorasis, the Great Spirit of Water."
Meimei gasped: "Isn’t this..."
"The names of the Four Major Aerial Realms?" the young girls echoed.
Even Li Ang couldn’t sit still, his eyebrows twitched a few times: "Are you saying the aerial realms themselves are divine spirits?"
"The aerial realms are not them; the aerial realms exist in this form due to them."
Zoe nodded: "So the Six Dragons aren’t that strong... Ouch!"
Li Ang withdrew his hand after tapping her head, awkwardly smiled at Agni.
Agni scratched his head: "Well, to put it simply, Earth, Fire, Water, Wind, the Four Major Elements, four of us Six Dragons act as controllers, akin to the brain of the entire Nebis Element, while the Great Spirits are the body, especially since they have no consciousness after sleeping."
Farina helplessly glanced at Zoe; even she felt the actions of the cat were somewhat hasty in front of the Dragon God she respects.
"The Dragon Gods’ power is half elemental, half Dragon’s Power, definitely not shallow."
Agni laughed: "Alright, we often make fun of ourselves like this."
"Listen well, when I say the fire is awakening, I mean Ignis is awakening, and His awakening may also lead to the awakening of other Great Spirits."
The Fire Dragon folded his arms: "They will deeply involve mortals, especially those mortals connected to the Star Soul, after all, they have a nickname known as the ’Great Star Spirit,’ and the Alulu you know is deeply related to them."
