Absorbing Dragon Blood

Seeing the boulders fly at it, the dragon hit them away with it's tail. But once it turned back around, Vance had already disappeared within the numerous pillars of earth that he had created. Using the darkness source, he absorbed his odor and the sound of his footsteps. The dragon, who was unable to smell or hear Vance, began to destroy pillars in order to find him. However, Vance had already ended up behind the dragon. He began to compress his powers into his fist in order to incapacitate the dragon. He then sprinted up the dragon's tail, all the way to it's head, and punched it. This punch sent a shockwave through it's scales and skull to it's brain, knocking it unconscious.

"See, you didn't have to go through all of that. Could have just given me some blood. But no, now you had to have me knock you out. Such a damn hassle."

Complaining about the fact that he had to fight when he wanted to do things peacefully, Vance walked towards the leg of the unconscious dragon. As he got closer, he began to summon his shadow blade. Upon reaching the leg, Vance made a small cut, which quickly began to bleed. He then created a tube and collected the blood.

"Just in case I need more, I guess I'll absorb it here."

Saying this, Vance sat down next to the unconscious dragon, looked at his palm, and made a small incision. He then poured the dragons blood into his palm. However, instead of spilling out of his hands like one may expect, it seemed like the blood was being sucked into his palm. Almost as if, something was consuming it.

"Ooo. That's an interesting feeling. So this is what it's like for your blood to consume other blood."

As the dragon blood was fully sucked into the cut on Vance's palm, Vance felt a vague feeling of needing more. Almost as if the very blood in his body was telling him to absorb more.

"Guess I need more. Well then big ol dragon, I guess I'll be borrowing more of your blood."

Vance created a large bucket, and cut into the dragon once again, noticing that the previous cut had healed. He placed the bucket under the wound and watched as it filled up. After it had filled up, Vance made a larger cut on his hand, and then put it in the bucket. Mere seconds after he touched the blood, he could feel it all being absorbed into him.
