Simulating Endless Possibilities: Invincible Once I Act

[You dive deeper into the river!]

[Hundreds of meters, thousands of meters, tens of thousands of meters...]

[As you dive deeper and deeper, you find it somewhat unbelievable!]

[You've already descended hundreds of thousands of meters, haven't you?]

[And yet, you still haven't reached the bottom!]

[Is this what rivers were like in ancient times?]

[It's truly unimaginable.]

[As you go deeper into the water, you become increasingly cautious!]

[After all, the deeper the water, the more likely you are to encounter powerful fierce beasts.]

[This is the territory of the Azure Flood Dragon, and no other water beasts linger here.]

[A few minutes later, you reach the bottom without any danger.]

[You clearly see a massive dragon palace structure at the bottom.]

[Could this be the Azure Flood Dragon's palace?]

[You gradually approach, softly calling out, "Azure Flood Dragon King."]

[But there's still no response.]

[Finally, you decide to step into the underwater dragon palace.]

["Creak!" You push open the dragon palace door without any hindrance.]

[Contrary to the grandeur outside, the scene inside the palace is filled with silence and desolation!]

[Not a single figure is in sight!]

[You continue to venture deeper.]

[After a long while, you finally hear a faint sound.]

[You cautiously move toward the source of the sound.]

["Roar!" Suddenly, you hear a dragon roar.]

[You see an azure giant dragon not far from you.]

[It is curled up, seemingly in pain.]

[You instinctively call out softly, "Azure Dragon?"]

[You never expected that in your search for the Azure Flood Dragon, you would encounter the Azure Dragon!]

[You wonder if the Azure Flood Dragon has successfully transformed into a dragon.]

["You say I'm a dragon? Am I really considered a dragon?"]

[Your soft call did not escape the Azure Dragon's ears.]

[It asks you incredulously.]

[It seems to want your confirmation.]

[The Azure Dragon's reaction leaves you puzzled!]

[But you still instinctively ask, "You're not a dragon? Then what are you?"]

["What am I? What am I? I don't know either! But they all say I'm not a true dragon!"]

["Roar!" A mournful dragon roar echoes.]

[The Azure Dragon's body stretches out.]

[You witness a terrifying sight!]

[You notice that more than half of the azure scales on the Azure Dragon's body have been removed.]

[No wonder it was curled up before, occasionally showing signs of pain.]

[Then, the Azure Dragon speaks again, "True dragons have golden scales, but me? I'm azure, I'm... I'm not a true dragon!"]

[The words of the Azure Dragon reveal a strong sense of sorrow.]

[And you sense something amiss.]

[It seems there's a dramatic story here!]

[Could it be that there are no Azure Dragons in this world?]

[So, the Azure Dragon was ostracized?]

[Is that why it feels resentment? Desolation?]

[You're even wondering now if the Azure Dragon might actually be the Azure Flood Dragon.]

[But because there are no azure dragons in this world, its origin is considered an anomaly, so others call it a flood dragon?]

[Even it doesn't consider itself a dragon?]

[The more you think about it, the more plausible it seems!]

[As a transmigrator from the 21st century, you feel the need to enlighten the Azure Dragon.]

[You slowly speak, "Camel head, deer antlers, snake body, fish scales, tiger mouth, eagle claws, ox ears, lion nose, goldfish tail; you possess all the features that symbolize a dragon, why wouldn't you be considered a dragon?"] R

["But, but I don't have golden scales!"]

["Who said dragons must have golden scales?"]

["But the Ancestral Dragon said only those like it, with golden scales, are true dragons; those like me with azure scales, and others with different colored scales, are called anomalies."]

[Upon hearing the Azure Dragon's words, you understand.]

[Indeed! It's a classic tale of racial ethics.]

[Clearly, the Ancestral Dragon is an old stubborn one.]

[It only acknowledges the status of golden dragons, and all other colored dragons are ostracized.]

[The Azure Dragon is evidently one of them.]

[At this moment, you look at the Azure Dragon with nearly half of its azure scales removed!]

[You can already imagine that this was done by the Azure Dragon itself.]

[It hates its azure scales, hoping to gain recognition from its kin and the Ancestral Dragon.]

[But clearly, this approach is futile!]

[This is the Azure Dragon, the leader of the four sacred beasts in legends; far more powerful than ordinary golden dragons; who would have thought it would be ostracized in this world!]

[Thinking of this, you can't help but say, "Why seek its recognition? As long as you're strong enough, if you say you're a dragon, the Ancestral Dragon wouldn't dare deny it!"]

[Your words seem to give the Azure Dragon a new perspective.]

[Instantly, it falls silent.]

[It had never considered surpassing the Ancestral Dragon one day.]

[If it truly surpasses the Ancestral Dragon in strength, would it then be recognized by its kin?]

[Perhaps it's really possible!]

[After all, it knows that this world still respects strength above all.]

[After a long time, the Azure Dragon seems to have figured it out and solemnly says to you, "Thank you!"]

[Through a brief exchange, you gain the friendship of the Azure Dragon.]

[Afterward, you begin to inquire about the Azure Flood Dragon.]

[You're still not sure if the Azure Flood Dragon is the Azure Dragon!]

[Finally, you receive a definite answer.]

[The Azure Dragon is indeed the Azure Flood Dragon.]

[However, it's not that the people of the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe mistook it for a flood dragon!]

[But rather, its dragon identity is not recognized by the Dragon Clan, so it calls itself a flood dragon to the outside world.]

[Afterward, you ask many questions.]

[Such as the situation beyond the Endless Mountains.]

[Where there are human settlements, and so on!]

[Unfortunately, the Azure Dragon says: Since it was ostracized by its race and expelled from the Dragon Clan, it has been hiding in the river within the mountains.]

[So it knows nothing about the world beyond the Endless Mountains.]

[It only knows that the Endless Mountains are vast, with many small settlements like the Azure Flood Dragon Tribe.]

[But it doesn't know about large human settlements either.]

[However, there is good news, which is that the Azure Dragon knows many dangerous places within the Endless Mountains.]

[It informs you of all these locations.]

[After obtaining the information you need, you don't linger.]

[Instead, you say to the Azure Dragon, "You are a dragon, a one-of-a-kind Azure Dragon, I look forward to hearing your legend!"]

[Then you bid farewell and leave.]

[Unbeknownst to you, after you leave, the Azure Dragon holds out a dragon egg; softly murmuring, "Child, did you hear? We are dragons, someone acknowledged us as dragons!"]

[Afterward, the Azure Dragon performs a series of spells on the dragon egg.]

[Then it murmurs, "Child, wait a little longer, wait until I make everyone acknowledge our identity as Azure Dragons, then be born!"]
