Chapter 1402: Full potential
The spirit weavers' path proved to be more valuable than anyone could have imagined, so it didn't take long for a lot of people to power up. At the same time, Rain kept looking around the world for spots where he found the spirits of the dragons.
He found a lot of them in the places where he fought them, but it was getting hard to find the spirits of the previous dragon gods, thanks to the time they died.
"At this rate, I won't be able to level up the other paths… but maybe I should focus on maxing out the dragon slayer path," Rain thought. "The previous fight was a total failure… wasting so much time against only ten or so of them…"
Since making everyone stronger would make things easier for Rain as well, he decided to focus on that for a while longer… During the next few days, they didn't have any meetings either since Rain was busy with that.
As the spirit weaver path leveled up, Rain kept it equipped while using the pocket dimension to see how it would affect it, but nothing major happened. Aside from the fact that Rain was able to bring spirits from outside to the inside… after thinking for a while, Rain assumed that even if some skills could affect others, things like compatibility still play an important role.
Since one was the space path and the other was the spirit path, it made sense that they wouldn't agree well together.
In any case, making the path became easier when Rain began to find older spirits. The next dragon god didn't like Rain and even tried to test him, but since he was a moron, it only told Rain to endure some place scorching… Rain was teleported to mercury, and that did the trick.
Level 70: Dragon Aspect Transformation - Assume a partial draconic form temporarily, gaining heightened senses, strength, and resilience during combat. You can boost one of your parameters by one hundred points multiplied by the level of the skill.
Level 75: Wyrmcleave Mastery - A powerful technique specifically designed to cleave through thick dragonhide, bypassing their defenses. Causes one hundred points of true damage per attack no matter what multiplied by the level of this skill.
Level 80: Dragon Sealing Rune - Craft runes capable of temporarily sealing a dragon's powers or limiting its movement within a defined area. Debuff all of their parameters by one hundred points per level.
Level 85: Dragon's Banishment Invoke ancient runes to banish or expel a dragon from a specific region, disrupting its influence.
"This isn't so bad, but the cost of mana is just insane…" Rain thought. "I should think of other ways to capitalize the spirit weaver's path."
While Rain was thinking about that, he wondered why the power of the dragon gods helped the dragon slayer path… it should have created a new path in the style that the dragons would fight. Still, it made sense that the system would ignore those since they were fighting agaisnt the dragons… in any case, Rain was just curious if he would be able to use authority magic if he were to pull that off.
"Come to think of it… that power should be something that the machine gods gave the dragons to stand ahead of others," Rain thought. "It is starting to feel like they did the same thing as the Saiyans… they sent some of their underlings here to take over Earth with that ability in order to increase the size of their army… it isn't working, apparently."
While Rain was thinking about that, he found the spirit of another dragon god. That one wanted to pick a fight with Rain, but without a body, it couldn't do that. So, in the end, it was satisfied by making Rain do something else… like clearing the area where Rain found the spirit since some flying bases fell there…
Level 90: Dragon's Last Stand - Unleash a concentrated and devastating assault against a dragon, targeting its weaknesses for a potentially fatal strike. Causes critical damage multiplied by the percentage of health you have lost
Level 95: Dragon Dominion - Establish temporary control over a dragon's mind, influencing its actions or persuading it to withdraw from combat. The level of the skill added with the strength of the enemy determines the duration that the target will be under this effect.
Level 100: Dragonbane Sovereignty - Attain the ultimate mastery over dragonkind, becoming a beacon of their downfall, commanding respect and fear among dragons, and wielding unparalleled power against them. All parameters + 1000 agaisnt dragons multiplied by the level of the skill.
"I guess one more and I will unlock all of the skills of the dragon slayer path… the number of dragon gods should be limited, but some of them still will be left behind at this rate," Rain thought. "What do you think, Elizabetha?"
"I don't know," Elisabetha said. "Since the system has that kind of power, once you max out this path, you probably will be able to break the limits of the skills, but you still will need to slay dragons or use their spirits to level up."
That made sense… While it was a bit limiting, it was fine since Rain was already too busy and was using all of his stamina on countless skills. In any case, around that time, Rain was able to enchant the weapons of around ten thousand warriors to wish the dragon's spirits.
Since they lived for so long and they didn't reproduce that much, Rain was starting to think that if they were lucky, they would find ten thousand spirits, if even that…
"I don't think that we will fight over this, but I guess I should find a solution," Rain thought.
Alongside the dragon spirits, Rain found a bunch of others. In theory, those should outnumber the dragons by a large margin, but things weren't so simple… the reason for that was the fact that the spirits could remain as spirits for as long as their mana could last.
