Chapter 964 Dragon Supremacy.Chapter 964 Dragon Supremacy.
Dragons with bloodlines are even more unreasonable in how they accumulate strength. Not only do they have ancestral memories they can also borrow power from their ancestors.
He on the other hand has to eat and get life force for him to grow his stats. He can't just sit somewhere and continue to grow stronger. He has to be proactive to take advantage of his lack of limits. A dragon beats him in that aspect.
What's worse is that a dragon beats him in the aspect of his POWER stat too. He can't even boast of that to a dragon because Dragons have that too. Theirs is even better. Normally, paragons gain a boost from external sources. Dragons are very different in that aspect. They gain their boost on their own by relying on their dragon heart.
A dragon's heart is their weakness and also their source of the POWER stat. It is like a core within the dragon. It is similar to the inner world of a world beast but it doesn't contain an empty space.
The dragon heart distills a force called the dragon force. It amplifies their stats and enables them to dominate mana and origin energy. They can use their dragon force to cast spells without the need for spell structures. That's why they are called the dominators of magic.
Dragons are better in everything. They would have been better than him too were he not a reincarnated being. A dragon his age cannot match him in power and strength. That is if the dragon decides to sleep instead of actively cultivating.
Dragons are on another level. They are not called the supreme race for nothing. He can't lay claim to having superior experience over a young dragon. A dragon descendent with a royal bloodline can give him a run for his money when it comes to experience.
They have bloodlines on top of their innate superiority. They also have something that other races don't get from their bloodlines. They have what is called an ancestral bestowal. It is possibly an ability unique to dragons in the entire void universe.
They gain this bestowal from any dragon in their lineage that is still alive. This bestowal is also more complete than the instincts gained from bloodlines. It contains clear and vivid memories. Its only weakness is that it doesn't give them instincts. But it gives them clear information about a wide range of things.
They gain skills and special abilities directly from their ancestors. And if that is not enough, they can be bestowed power from their ancestors for a short while so a young dragon cannot be easily bullied by someone stronger.
It is not an understatement to say that dragons are almost without weakness. They would be perfect if not for the weakness of their fragile heart. Even with that weakness, It is almost as if the other races are trying to catch up to them. If not for that weakness then no one would stand a chance against them.
Dragons are surely terrifying, but no matter what, a dragon his age can't match him in the power of the soul. That is something that is exclusively his. That is something he gained from the hard work of his previous self.
"No dragon can match me in the area of the soul. Unless that dragon is Legion-8. Then I am no match." Then he chuckled and said, "In my own defense, Legion-8 is not a dragon."
Legion-8 is the dragon clone. He has all the advantages of a dragon and more. He doesn't have the weakness of dragons and he also has Ragnarok's soul power. So Ragnarok can't compare himself to Legion-8.
He shouldn't compare himself to a dragon anyway. There are no dragons in this plane. What he can and should compare himself to are Vampires. Those are some of his strongest enemies in this plane.
Unlike wood elves who have a limit on stats, Vampires don't have limits on their stats. Sacrificing their origin has unlocked their potential. A young fledgling equal to a mana entity can engorge on so much blood that they can compare to a king of law in terms of raw stats. Vampires are terrifying parasites.
They are in this plane where he is and they will also be his enemies. This in itself is more than enough reason for him to cherish the fact that he doesn't have a limit on his stats either He mustn't complain about it at all. Without it, he wouldn't be able to come close to the mythical races in potential at all. He is also better than Vampires in that his diet is not limited to blood.
------
He spent his days just flying and growing stronger. This continued for a few months. He didn't experience anything different until he came close to the edge of the plane. He is thick in the midst of the frozen tundra at that point. The air was frigid and all form of water was frozen including the vapor in the air.
It made breathing very difficult for him. The very air could freeze his nose, airway, and lungs. He had to create a domain of fire around him to heat the air.
"This is not a place for life." He observed idly.
It is also completely dark here. The light of the sun that reaches this part of the plane is sparse, to begin with. The eclipse of the sun has plunged it into total darkness.
There should be no life here and he likes things as they are. But it was here that he began to sense life. It made him pause his flight.
"There are signs of life. Am I in trouble?" He asked himself.
It is expected that this cold and dark location should have no life. So he was surprised that he sensed life. At first, he thought they were his pursuers. But he changed his mind when he sensed the life force to be very weak. They are also in front of him, not behind him. Their life force is too weak for someone that can overtake him. They couldn't be his pursuers
