Chapter 984: Chapter 412 Logic of the Abyss Chapter 984: Chapter 412 Logic of the Abyss The power of bloodline, the path to the sublimation of bloodline, sounds very similar to the Divine Blood flowing through the bodies of demigods in the Mortal Realm.

Yet the Dragon Mother was very clear in her heart, that whether it was the life from the Abyss or the bloodline of the Dragon Clan, both were utterly different from it.

The Divine Blood of All Gods is merely an external inheritance, while the bloodlines of the Abyss and the Dragon Clan possess a highly unified and ascendable complete system.

The simplest manifestation of this is that the offspring of gods almost never change their appearance due to Divine Blood, nor will they truly master the Lower Divine Authority equal to that of Deities.

The children of Zeus could be close to thunder, but it would never be through controlling Thunder that they gained the power of a Demigod. Even, they could be completely unrelated to Thunder, and the same goes for other progeny of Deities.

After all, the authority of a deity is controlled through Godhood, and such authority from the world cannot be inherited and divided through bloodlines.

In contrast, members of the Dragon Clan and Abyss Demons would not be like this.

Beings with Dragon Blood would, as their bloodline turns back to its origins, continually have their life forms approach that of their Ancestor, with their strength and abilities changing along with it.

Different kinds of demons also can complete a change in the essence of life during the process of bloodline sublimation, and even directly undergo a race transition under the chaotic rules.

Deities of today cannot comprehend such a state of affairs, for in their view, Divine Level Power, especially the Source Power that constructs authority, could not possibly ‘spring out of nowhere’.

No matter how one looks at it, simple bloodline sublimation within the domain of life cannot create Godhood or the unique abilities involving rules themselves inherited from the Great Divine Power of Great Demons.

However, the Dragon Mother agrees with this point because Source Power indeed cannot be created out of thin air.

What the gods do not know though, is that it can also reassemble, allowing the scattered to return to the origin, and this is the essence of bloodline sublimation for Divine Level existences.

Take herself, for example, if one day in the future the Dragon Mother were to perish, the bloodline shackles of the Dragon Clan she spawned would be unlocked.

The strongest among them could possibly use this opportunity to complete their sublimation and metamorphosis, thereby stepping into the domain of a Dragon God.

And in this process, the power they would obtain obviously does not come out of nowhere but from that part scattered deep within the bloodline of the Dragon Clan after the death of the Dragon Mother.

Scattered and then reassembled, with a single race as the main body, allowing strength to pass down through bloodline generation by generation, even without the essence of immortality, it is as if this race has obtained an alternative form of ‘eternal power’. This is the path of bloodline sublimation.

In comparison, the gods are undying, and the Divine Authority lasts forever, so for Deities, this is something they could never understand or achieve.

“However, the bloodline’s path also has its drawbacks; on one hand, as the source of the bloodline, creating a race by oneself is not an easy task.”

“On the other hand, as the beneficiaries of bloodline privileges, they cannot surpass the source of their bloodline while it is still alive. And even if the source is dead, it does not mean that everything is fine.”

“Just like those descendants who carry my bloodline… If one day I truly die, whether they inherit my strength and become the new Dragon God or if after successfully sublimating their bloodline, they become the vessel for my resurrection, it will depend on their own abilities…”

Musing in her heart, the elongated pupils in her eyes twinkled slightly.

This is why the Dragon Mother could be certain that her creator only provided a portion of strength, and in her perception, she herself should be the true origin of the bloodline of the Five-color Dragon Clan.

Otherwise, as an innate Evil God like Hypnos, nobody knows what she might end up doing.

However, as the source of the bloodline, while no longer needing to worry about oppression from above, if the Dragon Mother wishes to continue strengthening her power, she can only seek it from the outside world.

This is also one of her purposes for entering the Abyss because the path of bloodline in the Abyss is in fact more twisted.

The so-called ‘bloodline sources’ of Abyss Demons, many can be traced back to the inception of the first six Demon Gods, while the rest are simply a conglomeration of Alien Chaotic Source Force.

There was once a Great Demon in the [Myriad Abyss Plains] on the verge of unifying the realm, which chose the direction of bloodline sublimation to be the Alien Forces that even Tartarus could not digest, and attempted to advance to new Demon God through this.

This is common in the Abyss, and it is not always necessary for a Great Demon on the brink of unifying a realm layer to be able to ascend this way.

Perhaps it’s just a bloodline mutation, and a demon from the Abyss could directly become a new Demon God with a part of the mixed origins of an Alien Deity. Then under the power of Tartarus, evolve into a corresponding demon race, adding a new type of existence to the diversity of species in the Abyss.

Of course, leaping to the heavens and the path to Ascension sounds great, but there can’t possibly be purely good things in the Abyss.

Because these demons who chose the dangerous path are more likely to be directly destroyed in the process of ascension due to the conflicting mixed origins, and their bodies become nothing more than a lowly feast for Abyss Demons.

Even if a demon that unified a realm layer could receive the blessing of the Abyss Will during ascension, thus greatly increasing the chances of success, this probability is still not absolute, which is why today’s [Myriad Abyss Plains] still remains without a Lord.

Even more bluntly, according to the display in the Lord Seal, the sum of demon lords who have died in wars with Hell, might not even compare to a fraction of those who have failed in their ascensions.
