Chapter 1168 The Backup Divine Ability.
1168 The Backup Divine Ability.
Fortunately, he is not alone in this thought. The other clones agreed to let him and Legion-8 hatch first before they begin another round of dangerous experimentation. They didn't know that the previous one was going to be so dangerous. If they did, they would have prepared better before they tried it.
Now they know that the shards of power are powerful but also capable of random things. They won't risk what they have in Legion-5 and Legion-8 for something that is not certain.
Legion-5's tune changed after the agreement. He began looking forward to controlling the shard of power. "I want to hatch quickly so that we can start working on the shard of power."
He doesn't want his near-death experience to be in vain. He has already been through the dangerous moment but nothing has come out of it for him. He can bear with it for now since he is not the only one who can't use the shard of power for anything.
"There's me, Legion-8, and the tree father. We can be patient till we hatch."
His patience thinned when the tree father got something from it. He has lost the restriction of domains. He doesn't need to fuse domains to possess them so he can have more than one domain as a Celestial.
"That's fine too. There's still Legion-8. We can be patient until we hatch."
But things didn't go according to plan. Legion-5 was pushed to the limit of his patience.
Helios started, "About that..."
Legion-5 interrupted him, "Don't say it."
He was willing to bear with being unable to get anything out of the shard of power because he was not the only one who hadn't gotten anything. So it came to him as an unpleasant shock when Legion-8 also got something. What Legion-8 got surprised all of them. It even affected Soverick.
"This is unprecedented," Soverick muttered. "I have gotten access to the law of creation through you. Let me comprehend it so that we can see how it will affect Legion-8."
"This is not fair. I am not the one with the highest potential anymore." Legion-5 complained.
The others were not saddened by the change to Legion-8. They are greedy so the more the merrier.
Helios said with anticipation, "This is great. We will surely be able to punish the dragons for their impudence now."
The reason why Gehaldirah chose to make a dragon clone is because of their power and because he wanted an insider amongst the dragons. With someone on their home plane, Legion will be able to find the dragon's breeding grounds.
Legion has not given up on their revenge on the dragons. They hate dragons and also covet their power. Reincarnation has given them the opportunity to do both. But now the shard of power has given them more than they can ever imagine. Legion-8's inner world suddenly gained access to some laws that none of them has the talent for such as the law of creation and destruction.
Things progressed rapidly and beyond their expectations from there. Helios gained cosmic energy and used it to strengthen Legion-1's inner world so Legion-1 got something from the shards of power too. The only one who hadn't gotten anything yet was still Legion-5.
His jealousy reached its peak when Soverick finally comprehended the full law of creation. That invoked the law matrix and made cosmic energy agitated. It swarmed from Helios to every clone. Legion-1 exploded. Aeternus reached level 10 immediately.
Legion-7 began using cosmic energy to devour laws. Legion-8's inner world also changed with the comprehension of the law of creation and cosmic energy flowed into his world to strengthen it too.
Legion-5 had to watch all these happen without gaining anything. It didn't even end there. Legion-8 made another breakthrough. His inner world evolved yet again after the law of creation was added to it. He can now add more laws to it. So instead of his inner world weakening with the addition of more laws it was strengthening.
Legion-5 couldn't take it anymore.
"Let me give it a try. We are both unborn in eggs. I can't just watch without gaining anything." He said said with determination.
"But what law should I try to add?" He asked the others.
Legion-2 proposed, "Add the law of devouring. It goes well with the law of life. We also have the schematics for the divine concept from Ragnarok. It will be good if we have a backup since Ragnarok is probably going to die."
"Even if you can't replicate Ragnarok's divine ability, the law of devour should unlock your limits on stats." Legion-1 said.
"That sounds like a good idea," Legion-5 said in agreement.
Then he asked, "But the law of creation and destruction is good too. Shouldn't I use one of them?"
Soverick advised him, "Leave those ones to Legion-8. We don't know their effects yet and adding laws to a divine ability is very dangerous. It is best to use Ragnarok as a model to reduce the risk."
Soverick's advice was sound so he had to listen to it. He had to give up on trying to emulate Legion-8. It is already too dangerous to add a law to a divine ability intentionally. A divine ability is not a concept which he is free to add laws and this addition is not the natural mutation caused by Origin essence. Anything can go wrong with it if he is not careful.
In fact, some might say he is courting death trying to change his divine ability in the egg. The other clones certainly think so but they are not telling him not to try it because are truly prepared to replace him with another Supreme beast if he dies. They were not kidding about that.
Even so, they don't want him to try something too dangerous. They would rather he die trying to create a backup of Ragnarok's divine ability since Ragnarok is unlikely to survive the Lumen plane.
