These three divine abilities are very powerful. Unfortunately, Legion-5 can't use them. This is because of his dragon heart. Lightning is highly destructive so it doesn't go well with regenerative divine abilities.

It would have been a perfect combination if there was lightning hydra. Unfortunately, there isn't. In fact, lightning is one of the weaknesses of Hydras. They can't heal injuries created by Lightning. So assimilating the Life duplication divine ability of Hydras with his dragon heart is asking for trouble.

While Legion-7 can overcome the resistance of some divine abilities to his dragon heart without destroying their function, they won't be able to get enhancement between the divine abilities if they are not compatible.

If they want to fuse a divine ability with the dragon heart and they want them to amplify each other, then it must be one that must work with lightning. This narrowed their options for recovery divine abilities to two.

Legion-5 said, "We have lightning elemental bodies and time-based recoveries. I assume we will be taking the time-based recovery."

Legion-7 agreed. "Yes. That's the best we can get."

Time-based recovery divine abilities are not actually the best recovery divine ability or the best of the options they are limited to. Lightning elemental divine ability will grant them the fastest recovery. It will be directly amplified by the dragon heart and it will grant them a certain level of physical transmutation.

The physical transmutation will grant them an elemental body that will allow physical attacks to pass through them. So they will gain partial immunity to physical attacks. Its weakness is that they will become highly susceptible to magical attacks but that can be fixed by their immunity gained from the divine giant of order.

It is a great divine ability but it is unfortunate that it is not completely compatible with them and it will reduce the overall defensive capabilities of the other defensive divine abilities like the Origin diamond divine ability. It will be a waste of the Origin diamond divine ability if they go with this option.

Most importantly, the Lightning elemental divine ability is directly rejected by the liquid graviton divine ability. The two of them cannot work together even if they are fused much less amplify each other. Legion-7 won't allow anything to reduce his defense so they are not taking it.

So they are going with time-based divine abilities. These divine abilities are compatible with almost every other divine ability. They make the body recover from injuries but don't recover energy. In fact, they consume a lot of energy and they are also very difficult to combine with other divine abilities. This is because the law of time is very difficult to comprehend.

The best time-based recovery divine ability is the one from a race of time worms. They are a very powerful race that recovers from injuries by reverting their state of existence. They can revert from near-death situations to total and complete health because of it.

This reversion happens nearly instantly. One moment they are almost dead and the next they are whole and hearty. They can't recover after death like the extra life divine ability but they can always recover for as long as they want and as long as they have energy.

So they are not limited to the amount of hearts that they have. If not for the fact that they have a weakness to ice, then the time worm race wouldn't have been defeated by the Supreme Alliance.

For some weird reason, frozen parts of the time worm don't recover when they revert their state of existence. Any concept that freezes them renders their recovery ability useless. They will still recover if they are not completely frozen but they will permanently lose the frozen part which will injure them more than the damage they sustained from the ice.

Ice makes it so that it is better for them to suffer the freezing than to try and recover only for them to lose the injured part forever. It will be as if a large part of them was cut off when they reverted. This weakness led to their defeat and subjugation. Legion-7 lamented for them. "It seems no race is safe from the Supreme alliance. Even such a powerful and near-immortal race were enslaved successfully."

Legion-5 was also moved. "It makes the eye of weakness tempting but we can't afford a slot for it."

That made Legion-7 chuckle. "If we had our way, then we would get every divine ability. No amount of slots would be enough to quench our greediness."

"That's true. We can only comfort ourselves with the fact that the eye of weakness has no path forward."

The dazzling array of divine abilities in the list is a temptation beyond any other. They want to get everything on it and not only the eye of weakness. With the eye of weakness, they would be able to identify the weakness of a race just by looking at them. Unfortunately for Legion-5, they only have 9 slots so they can't have everything they want.

It is painful to look and not be able to take whatever divine ability they want but they alleviate their pain with some mollifying information. One such mollifying information is that the eye of weakness is a dead end.

Every Supreme beast that has ever used it couldn't bring it to the Origin god stage. They lost it because they couldn't comprehend the law needed to fuse it completely. If not for this weakness then the eye of weakness would become the next great divine ability.

The conjecture is that the race it belongs to are descendants or creations of a world god and the law in their divine ability is a false law. Since false laws can't be comprehended without direct access to the Supreme law that they come from, the Supreme Alliance couldn't comprehend it.

They are like Vampires in that way with a unique path of power. Their path of power is similar to the path of perfection but it relies on a false law.
