Chapter 129: Chapter 112 Noah, do you think I’ve reached my limit?_2

Today, this little guy has transformed into a Giant, beating a few Cloud Giant youths of similar size to the ground. The blood on his fists is shocking to behold.

"The Titan Bloodline is truly powerful!"

Noah watched his nephew’s performance in the training field, unable to help but sigh in admiration.

"It is indeed a very powerful bloodline."

A calm and slightly magnetic voice came from behind. Noah turned his head and saw a familiar man.

However, this man no longer possessed the terrifying aura that seemed to crush the Sky Dome when he returned bearing a mountain. He appeared plain and ordinary, just like any young man, without the overwhelming pressure. Instead, he exuded a sense of simplicity and genuineness.

"Uncle, you’re back? Have the underground battles ended?"

Noah was somewhat surprised and a bit puzzled.

"I just finished a battle. I brought back some spoils and stopped by to have a look. I will return later."

Casius replied, his wife had initiated a bold war, supported mainly by him. Without him, such a war would be suicidal and couldn’t be initiated. He was the only advantage the surface had over the underground.

"Oh."

"You have been training Uranos for so long. What is your evaluation of him? How far do you think he can go with the Titan Bloodline?"

Noah immediately began to ponder. Undoubtedly, it was a very challenging question.

"Just say it directly, no need to worry."

"Becoming the Extreme Intent should be a natural matter. Legend might have some challenges, but I think it won’t be a big issue."

The Golden Dragon gave its answer.

"So, you think his ultimate limit will be Legend?"

"Barring any surprises, yes."

Noah nodded. After all, with Uranos being diligent aside from his talent, and not afraid of shedding blood or getting injured on the training field, he naturally had a great chance of becoming a Legend.

"What about me? Do you view my ascent to Legend solely as a result of the Titan Bloodline?"

Casius suddenly asked, causing the Golden Dragon to momentarily freeze.

"Hahaha, Noah, I’m not making things difficult for you. Just chatting casually, relax a bit."

"Uh, Uncle, why would you think that? Talent, bloodline, personal effort, all are indispensable factors for ascending to Legend. Even without the Titan Bloodline, with your talent and effort, it would just be a matter of time to become a Legend."

Noah felt puzzled, wondering where his foster father had been provoked?

Was it because the Shattering of Life’s Extreme Intent had taken away half of his life?

"But what if my talent comes from the Titan Bloodline? Do you think I would still have the potential to become a Legend with mere personal effort?"

"This..."

Noah was at a loss for words, unsure how to respond. Although it was cruel, the fact was that if effort alone worked, what need would there be for talent?

"Effort is an ordinary, universal yet extraordinarily rare quality. To persist in doing something that yields no immediate reward requires immense perseverance and will."

Casius spoke, preventing the atmosphere from descending into silence,

"Those who possess this quality, if not too unlucky, often achieve something significant. Even if I don’t possess talent or bloodline, I should be similar.

However, the bloodline and talent allowed me to achieve greater heights, providing more returns for my efforts and struggles.

The Titan Bloodline has given me everything I have now, without a doubt.

I won’t avoid or be ashamed to mention this. My achievements today are because of the Titan Bloodline."

The man spoke candidly. As Noah was at a loss for words, the previous question was brought up again, albeit with some differences,

"Since you believe Uranos has a great chance of breaking through to become a Legend, to what extent do you think he could go within Legend?"

"That’s hard to say!"

It was another incredibly difficult question to respond to.

The difference between Legends is self-evident—a newly ascended Legend, an extraordinary Legend who has comprehended the Realm for hundreds of years, a near-saint Legend who has condensed Divinity, a Demigod who has ignited the Divine Fire, an Ascender preparing for the Divine Enthronement Ceremony—all belong to the Legendary Realm.

But are these the same?

Of course not.

The disparity in this Realm is vast.

"If it were a true Titan, you probably wouldn’t have such hesitation."

Seeing Noah’s troubled expression, Casius teased with a smile,

"True Titans have nearly infinite lifespans, and each Titan has the potential to challenge the Divine. As long as they don’t fall by accident, they will eventually become entities that stand shoulder to shoulder with the gods."

"Indeed."

Noah dryly echoed, this was what the Dragon Clan’s legacy recorded of Titans. So powerful, they could indeed be called a species of the Divine Race.

They vanished from many Material Planes tens of thousands of years ago, leaving no trace. Whether this was fortunate or unfortunate for the countless beings on these Planes remains unknown.

"Unfortunately, Uranos and I are merely mortals fortunate enough to bear the Titan Bloodline. Our achievements cannot compare to true Titans. The Titan Bloodline grants us a higher starting point, but it also imposes unfathomable shackles upon us."

Under the puzzled gaze of the Golden Dragon, Casius provided his assessment of his grandson,

"In the future, Uranos has a great chance of ascending to Legend with the Titan Bloodline. However, if he cannot, like me, induce a second and third awakening of the Titan Bloodline, making it more complete.

Then, his future accomplishments will end there, forever remaining at the first or second stage of Legend, unable to advance further."

Bloodline shackles?!

Noah was struck spiritually. This was a shackle hanging over the heads of many creatures, the most famous being Bloodline Mages.

They often require nothing, just eat and sleep normally to effortlessly gain the power envied by other Extraordinary Professionals.

Yet, they cannot decide what power they possess. More importantly, when the power in their bloodline is exhausted, the rest of their life is spent pursuing the origin of their bloodline, striving to perfect and elevate it with all their might.

Beyond that, they can do nothing more, as their cultivation and efforts become nearly futile.

This is the Bloodline Shackle!

"How can it be?"

Noah was initially dumbfounded, then had a moment of realization.

Titans are supreme, but an incomplete Titan Bloodline is not equivalent to supremacy.

"Noah, do you think I’ve reached my limit?"

Casius once again posed a question that made Noah feel particularly uncomfortable, virtually unanswerable.

What did he know? He didn’t even know how far his foster father’s Titan Bloodline had awakened, nor where its limits lay.

"Do you know? The most miraculous aspect of the Titan Bloodline lies in its activation and boiling during battles when challenging formidable foes. I can feel the blood flowing within me, sense the continuous strengthening of my muscles and bones. Each battle leaves me stronger."

Casius looked towards Noah, revealing the secrets contained within the Titan Bloodline,

"Unfortunately, my Titan Bloodline has reached its limit. The last battle was the most brutal I have ever fought.

Yet, my power’s growth was minimal. After all, it’s an incomplete bloodline. I am not a true Titan; such results are only to be expected."

The man’s tone was quite open-minded, indifferent, with no sense of disappointment or depression. Noah even sensed an upward surge of fighting spirit within him,

"But that’s my bloodline reaching its limit, not me reaching mine.

My path lies further ahead!"
