Chapter 1231 What''s Blue And Sounds Like Thunder?
??It is a good idea to try and create a system of resurrection independent of the void universe as it will grant them the ability to resurrect like Origin gods without being Origin gods and they won''t lose this ability if the void universe is destroyed. But Legion-7 himself who is to be the foundation of this system is vulnerable.
If he is to try to eliminate Legion-7''s weakness then it will take a lot more of his divine ability slots which will disrupt his n for the other clones. Hence why Legion-5 is not sure they should do it.
Legion-7 made his point. "I don''t think we have to think much about it because it will benefit all of Legion and eliminate a very important weakness. After all, if you are unkible that means I am unkible. And if I am unkible then we are all unkible. If we are all unkible, then whatever doesn''t kill us will only make us stronger."
"That is true. But are we even sure that you can do it?" Legion-5 asked as he moved to take what he exchanged for.
He opened the door of the portal room to find arge crystal within it. The crystal is round and blue. It has a rough jagged surface so it looks more like a rock. If not for the fact that it is transparent then it would be considered a crystal.
Because it is transparent, Legion-5 could see that there are faint white streaks of energy within it that branch out like roots and flicker rhythmically. If the white roots of the crystal are considered blood vessels then the flickering can be considered the pulsing of blood as it is pumped.
Legion-5 carried the crystal out with both of his hands. The crystal was that heavy. It is about 10 meters tall and very heavy. He had to use both his arms.
Legion-7 observed, "It is beautiful and powerful. What a wonder it is."
Legion-5 grunted. "And heavy."
"It is the source of dragon Supremacy so it should be heavy."
"And now it shall be ours."
Theyughed about the prospect.
"It wouldn''t even be the only one. It is just the first step towards greatness."
"Many more will fall and serve as nutrition to our obsession."
The crystal is bigger than him in his normal state but he is more than strong enough to carry it. Even so, he still treated it with care. This is because, despite how powerful it is, the heart of a dragon is fragile. So he used both of his hands to carry it back to the central room. It is the most secure location in the whole base.
Legion-5 said. "Witt this we will gain some immunity to lightning. Legion is counting on you for the first step of unity. It will be a waste if you fail."
Legion-7 promised. "I won''t fail as long as you are unkible. We should be able to match Legion-8 if we work together."
Legion-5 ced the blue crystal heart on the ground gently. He tapped it lightly. It made a sound like that of thunder. Legion-5 winced at the sound.
"Lightning is truly violent. This is not going to be easy to assimte."
Legion-7mented dryly. "I expect this to be very painful for you. It is not going to be easy at all."
Legion-5 sighed. "I guess there is no use dying."
Then he began to assimte the dragon heart. His form copsed into a blob of whitish fluid. He spread his fluid form all over the blue crystal and engulfed it. Then his form reverted to his humanoid form. He has shrunk and the dragon heart shrunk with him.
Legion-7 observed, "That didn''t seem so difficult."
Legion-5 shook his head. "It is just the beginning."
He felt the heart buckle within him just as he said that. It made him stumble. The dragon that the heart belongs to is dead so the heart is not the one resisting the assimtion. The resistancees from his existence needing to shift to amodate such a powerful and foreign object.
After all, as a post-origin dragon heart, it must havee from dragon that was a titan ofw or Sovereign ofw. It is has made it extremely tasking for his existence to shift to try and match the requirements of the dragon heart.
It took a while to stabilize himself. But he couldn''t remain standing. He had to sit because of the fatigue. He felt as if he was suffocating, burning, drowning, and tired from lifting a mountain all at the same time.
He said to Legion-7. "I feel so sleepy."
"Don''t worry. I''ll be here to protect you."
Legion-5 slept off at that point. He couldn''t maintain the awareness of his consciousness anymore. It is amon urrence for Supreme Beasts when they are assimting divine abilities. He is stronger than his peers but he is absorbing two divine abilities at the same time so sleep cannot be evaded.
In fact, assimting Legion-7 is more than enough for him to sleep. Legion-7 alone is more tasking than absorbing 10 divine abilities at once. After all, Legion-7 has his consciousness intact while seeds of powers are dead things.
If not for the fact that Legion-7 is not resisting then he would never be able to assimte Legion-7. It is more likely for him to be assimted if the two of them were enemies. This is because Legion-7 is more experienced in eating and assimting others.
Things went without a hitch despite the weird changes that Legion-5 went through during the assimtion process. His existence didn''t break down due to Legion-7 like the poor boy who was possessed. But his existence had to make a lot of changes for Legion-7 and the dragon heart.
So it was perfectly normal that his body expanded and became horrifically mutated during the assimtion. He grew several arms, legs, and many tentacles. Those are due to Legion-7. But even those changes were not as weird as the effect the dragon heart had on him.
