Chapter 338: Chapter 339: Breeding Supremacy

"Ancestor, Andeta... he... he has a descendant?"

The news sent the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon into a violent tremor, his scales opening and closing, vibrating uncontrollably.

"If I recall correctly, Andeta has been around since the moment the Wizard Ancestral Land was established, right? That was a full thirty billion Star Realm years ago."

"And that’s just the time he’s spent in the Star Realm. If you factor in any Time Secret Realms, plus the time before the Wizard Ancestral Land was even founded, he must have already been at least ten billion years old by then, right?"

The Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon was finally, truly afraid. He kept glancing around, terrified that Andeta would suddenly appear and drag him back to the Tower of Black Stone.

Others might be reluctant to fight him because of the path he walked, but in Andeta’s eyes, he was nothing more than an endless supply of draconic materials.

His Path of Life was the perfect ingredient for Andeta to forge all sorts of draconic Witchcraft Artifacts.

"He was only discovered by the Ancestor after his Bloodline awakened."

Antameno waved his hand at the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon.

"Oh, is that so? You scared me to death!"

Seeing that Andeta hadn’t appeared, the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon finally breathed a sigh of relief.

’If Andeta himself had come, I’d have no choice but to surrender. But with only Antameno here, I can still get away.’

"Heh heh, it’s been tens of thousands of years since we last met. Don’t be in such a hurry to leave!"

Looking at the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon, Antameno knew exactly what he was planning.

"Your family’s descendant enslaved my descendant as a Battle Pet. That’s a debt I have to settle with you."

At this, the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon looked at Seven Rings standing beside Andre, his confidence suddenly bolstered.

"Seven Rings was originally a Mixed-blood Dragon Beast. Under my care, he underwent a gradual transformation and ultimately chose the Bloodline of a Life Giant Dragon."

"If he had followed his original Bloodline, he never would have become a Life Giant Dragon!"

Having recovered, Andre’s expression turned cold as he faced the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon.

After Andre spoke, Seven Rings also opened his mouth and called out twice at his ancestor, as if to say Andre was right.

This gesture from Seven Rings infuriated the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon.

"I am your ancestor! Whose side are you on?!"

The Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon stared wide-eyed at Seven Rings, who clearly favored Andre.

"Heh heh, you can’t blame anyone else for that. If you want to blame something, blame the method of procreation your Giant Dragon Race decided on back then."

Antameno chuckled as he watched the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon. Hearing this, the dragon’s furious expression instantly fell.

Antameno wasn’t wrong.

From the very beginning of their existence, the Giant Dragon Race’s special Bloodline meant they were born as powerful beings.

But all things in the world have their own balance. When it came to procreation, the Giant Dragon Race was much weaker than other races.

In fact, the more powerful a Giant Dragon was, the weaker their reproductive ability became!

After noticing this, the upper echelons of the Giant Dragon Race realized this was unacceptable.

’If this keeps up, won’t our Giant Dragon Race go extinct?’

Even though new Giant Dragons would occasionally be born in other worlds, their numbers were far outstripped by the number of those who died.

And so, the race began to make changes to address this trait. Their first idea was to find partners from races with strong reproductive capabilities.

They hoped to solve the problem by leveraging the reproductive abilities of another race.

Once the upper echelons of the Giant Dragon Race settled on this strategy, all Giant Dragons of breeding age were sent out to find mates and produce offspring. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

Soon, news began to trickle back from the Giant Dragons who had been sent out.

The results reported in this news met the expectations of the Giant Dragon Race’s leadership.

Indeed, partnering with races that had high fertility did solve the Giant Dragon Race’s problem of weak reproductive ability.

But a new problem arose. Because these pairings were not between two Giant Dragons, the offspring of those sent to solve the problem were all Dragon Beasts, not true Giant Dragons.

Only the offspring of a few Giant Dragons with extremely powerful Bloodlines were born as true Giant Dragons, but even then, their bodies exhibited traits from the other races.

To solve the problem of impure Bloodlines, the leaders of the Giant Dragon Race began researching how to purify and fuse Bloodlines.

Thus, Potions and Magic Plants that could help increase the concentration of one’s Bloodline, like the Dragon Transformation Fruit and the Metamorphosis Potion, were gradually discovered by the dragon leaders and then promoted on a large scale.

After solving the issue of Bloodline impurity, the leaders of the Giant Dragon Race discovered that, even so, their population remained small.

To further address the low population, the Giant Dragon Race began to collect and purchase items from all over the Endless Star Realm that could enhance Bloodline concentration.

While collecting these items, a few of the Giant Dragon leaders came up with a new idea.

This idea was the reason why Dragon Beasts later became more and more numerous.

’They thought something like this: The Giant Dragon Race no longer lacked methods to enhance Bloodlines, only numbers. So, why not let the Giant Dragons procreate indiscriminately?’

’As long as they had enough items to enhance Bloodlines, the more Dragon Beasts, the better.’

’Even better, if the Giant Dragon Race ever suffered a major loss in the future, they could recall these Dragon Beasts born from unions with other races.’

’Then, using Potions and Magic Plants, they could elevate their Bloodlines, transform them back into Giant Dragons, and replenish the race’s strength.’

After this idea was approved, a campaign the Giant Dragon Race called "Procreation Above All" began to spread throughout their kind.

The leaders of the Giant Dragon lineage offered up vast treasures and precious artifacts to encourage the race to participate in this special campaign for racial improvement.

Against this backdrop, the Giant Dragon Race began to pursue even better methods of procreation.

It was also during this period that the Life Giant Dragon lineage received special cultivation from the Giant Dragon Race.

And as the progenitor of the Life Giant Dragon lineage, he, with the support of the entire Giant Dragon Race, ascended to become a Level 7 Creature. He then used the Power of Law to further enhance the reproductive capabilities of the Giant Dragon Race.

After this enhancement was complete, the Giant Dragon Race began to roam across various worlds, continuously mating with other races and leaving offspring behind.

Once they confirmed their partner was pregnant, they would leave that world and move on to the next.

Over time, this led to a situation where the figures of Dragon Beasts could be seen in the vast majority of worlds throughout the Endless Star Realm.

Naturally, the Ancestor of the Life Giant Dragon played an essential role in this special procreation campaign.
