Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 923 509: Noah

"The Dawn Light tears through the darkness, the Sword of Justice cleaves the evil, my lord Iliad, you are the light of Order, the edge of Courage—"
"May your holy flame burn away evil, may your laws forge the Eternal!"
"Master of Light, avatar of the sacred, you shall exalt the Divine Throne, gloriously eternal!"
The devout prayers emerging from the Material Realm, even in the Void, are perceived, as faith converging from multiple worlds is forging an eternal, immortal Divine.
The birth of a True God causes disturbances in the Root Rules, attracting many gazes, yet these gazes quickly withdraw, avoiding unnecessary misunderstandings by not peering into the world where this True God is born.
For outside the Void of this world, numerous powerful entities stand, their immortal radiant light visible even billions of miles away.
From Heaven comes the Blazing Sky God, the ancient Divine who has returned to the Divine King's position, and a Sun Dragon King ruling over domains as vast as three hundred worlds.
There are few entities protecting the New God, only three, yet each can cause stars to tremble and silence the Void, so this Divine Enthronement ceremony proceeds unusually smoothly, without any Divine obstructing.
Of course, more importantly, before the divine sealing, the path for this New God had already been paved, the Divine Position Domain he wants to tread upon has been vacated, allowing him easy entry, without causing any resistance or suppression.
Unfortunately, this effortlessly smooth Divine Enthronement ceremony did not satisfy a certain entity protecting in the Void, rather it caused raging flames to surge and roll in the Void,
"Light, sacredness, order, courage, four Divine Position Domains, weak Divine Power—"
Noah gazed down at his offspring slowly elevating the Divine Country into the Void within the Material World, instantly discerning the Divine Power Level of his offspring and his Divine essence.
The essence so weak it's absurd made Noah glance at his father-in-law and Odin beside him, showing a helpless expression, then sneered,
"Such a well-mannered god, offending no one!"
"Ha!"
Above the Sun, drifting and shimmering fiery storm, and the thunder ripping through the Void, all revealing the unsettled state of mind of the Dragon King.
"Noah—"
Also descended to guard Iliad's Ascension, the Blazing Sky God Solophis looked at the somewhat agitated Sun,
"This is Iliad's own choice, you must respect him, not everything can unfold according to your expectations, moreover, his choice isn't wrong."
"Not wrong? How many have run tirelessly for him, and how many Battle Groups serve him? Yet he now chooses merely to become a mere weak Divine Power, forgetting everything else, does he stand proud before his Favored, before his followers?"
Noah was both furious and exasperated; his eldest son should be a model, but instead of any model, he chooses to be a moral model, a good man praised by all gods.
Offending no one, befriending everyone, thus resulting in this situation.
"Successfully ascending to become a True God is already a coveted achievement sought by multitudes in the Material Realm, even weak Divine Power is quite good. Noah, you are too harsh on your offspring."
"If he had solely depended on himself, prepared the Sealing God Ceremony, and succeeded in Ascension, even for merely weak Divine Power, I would celebrate for him.
But he did not rely solely on himself; how many resources have I poured into him? Thirteen Battle Groups served him; three thousand Dragon-man warriors died for him, yet what he returns is this, he obviously could become a lesser Divine Power, attempt to break through to medium Divine Power!"
"Is it that easy? Noah, I admit that Divines in every aspect are inferior to Epics, but becoming a Divine isn't as easy as you imagine.
I could, at the moment of Divine Enthronement, swiftly become a medium Divine Power due to my accumulated foundation; does your child want to be like me? I fear he still needs to sediment for tens of thousands of years; he is far from it."
Odin couldn't help but speak up; Noah inadvertently subjected him to implications as well; if becoming Divine were so easily accomplished, then what would be his tens of thousands of years of accumulation?
"I know, but to become a lesser Divine Power is a piece of cake; believers surpassing a hundred million believers, a million devout believers, how many Divines among the gods can claim such accumulation?"
For most Ascenders, achieving Divine Enthronement characterizes success; never mind lesser Divine Power, even becoming a circus god, music god, or art god among the fish-like gods would be willingly embraced, for simply becoming Divine grants eternity and immortality.
However, Noah's demands of his offspring differ; he insists that Iliad ventures into potent Divine Position Domains while also aiming to ascend to higher Divine Power levels, rather than lingering at the tail end, being a spare tire of the Divine system.
Noah not only puts forth demands but also provides corresponding resource support, precisely due to this; seeing his offspring choosing not to seize the opportunity, choosing to be a good man, ignited his wrath.
"Noah, you are too aggressive; Iliad's Divine Country ultimately must ascend into Heaven; if per your assumptions, even if Iliad becomes a medium Divine Power, how could he stand in Heaven?"
