"Yeah, but it cannot be called complete." Adam looked Ian up and down. "Before a god, you were a vampire. Indeed, that guy must be your Ancestor."
"Actually, there are also vampires in other Universes, and most of them aren’t as strong as vampires in your Universe."
"Why so?" Ian asked in response.
"First of all, even with the same races. There are differences between vampire races across Universes. For instance, vampires like you in this Universe can grow stronger through aging and aren’t afraid of the sun. On the other side of the fourth Universe, vampires cannot grow stronger through aging, and they’re fearful of the sun, silver, garlic, and holy water.
Hearing this, Ian inwardly snickered. ’Aren’t these the usual characteristics of vampires? Just as I thought, vampires in the Curtained Imperium are really abnormal.’
"Why are there huge differences between the same race across the Universe, though?"
Adam knew that Ian was naturally curious. He couldn’t help but admire his thirst for knowledge and willingness to learn, rather than being ignorant. "It’s ..."
As Ian listened, he couldn’t help but be thankful that he had transmigrated into the body of a vampire from the first Universe. Why so? Because the vampires from other universes, except for the 18th Universe, were a bunch of trash. A downgraded version that was so weak they’re barely better than humans. Not only that, but they also have several weaknesses.
More importantly, Ian finally understood why there are such differences. The thing is, the upper limit and lower limit of a race depend on its ancestors. The stronger the ancestor of a race or the higher their life level, the higher the lower limit and upper limit of the race. It was that simple.
Xenos had a terrifying strength before he founded the Blood Empire. He was already very strong. Thanks to that, the humans he turned had crazy high potential, and the subsequent descendants had no weaknesses of the usual vampires of other Universes.
"Xenos had mastered Blood Divine Ki. Normally, his strength is only planetary level, which was really low for a god, right?"
Ian nodded in agreement. ’That’s really low for a god. Also, something doesn’t make sense... Xenos had lived for a millions of fucking years, right? His blood purity should be terrifying. How could he only have a planetary-scale power level? Something doesn’t add up.’
Seeing Ian’s troubled expression, Adam guessed what he was thinking and so:
"That’s right. Xenos had mastered a technique that lets him transfer his special characteristics to a new form. Far more potent than his normal form. As older he is, the stronger that transformation becomes. Even I can’t understand Xenos’ depth. Although he’s not yet a True God, he might be hiding his strength, and no one has forced him to reveal the true extent of his form."
Adam crossed his arms behind his back and continued.
"His transformation is also known as the Blood God Form. He had defeated True Gods consecutively, yet it was generally agreed that wasn’t the limit of his Blood God Form..."
’That’s it. It would be suspicious if he were only planetary after living for a million years. Still, to be able to ascend to godhood through blood purity after a million years. That’s kinda rough and time-consuming path.’
Ian sighed. As with his system, he only took what? 300 years to become a God and another 200 years to master Divine Ki.
As Ian called out, a familiar panel appeared in front that even Adam couldn’t see. Even Gods and Devils couldn’t see his system, which made Ian wonder. Just where did his system originate from? Even higher existences couldn’t perceive its presence at all. This made Ian understand that the system must have an unfathomable background.
On the North Galaxy, which was under Ian’s jurisdiction. A ship suddenly appeared in a blink. The speed at which it travels has reached lightspeed.
"Master Zero, the one in front seems to be our target planet. Should we fire the Electro-Plasma Gun?" A green-skinned humanoid alien with five eyes and orange hair looked at the screen inside the spaceship that displayed a large red-velvet planet.
Around him, there were different kinds of aliens, each with distinct skin color and appearance. Yellow-skinned, and there’s even an alien with dark brown eyes, with the head of an octopus.
The one they addressed as Lord Zero was a sleek figure with explosive muscle, standing at 6 feet height. His face wore a playful smile as he eyed the red planet with amusement. "Hoho, it’s not the time yet. We need to collect the 3rd and 6th Helix first, and I’ll personally end this planet." He softly chuckled with a devilish grin.
As he said this, his long white tail moved around behind him. Zero had a pair of red pupils and a shiny, dark, bald head. His face seems to look like an evil warlord robot with a villainous, playful smile fixed on his face.
"A foreign spaceship had appeared outside the Planet with unknown intentions."
Meanwhile, a blaring alarm and AI announcement started as Zero’s spaceship became nearer and nearer to the planet.
The inhabitants of the Zoa Planet began to flee in panic as they heard the announcement that had reached every corner of their world.
"What’s happening? Are we under attack?"
"Look at that spaceship? It seems that was what AI Milette had discovered with the sensor."
"Not good! That’s the symbol of Zero’s Destruction Legion! We’re done for!"
"Zero? The one who calls himself the Emperor of the Universe? Who had conquered the East and South Zone of the Universe within a few years? Is he planning to expand his influence again and occupy our North Zone? Why is he eyeing the North!?"
"Damn it! Fucking Zero! He had destroyed countless planets just because of his whim!"
"What an evil bastard. Hurry, let’s escape out of the space or we won’t end well."
The native inhabitants began to run in different directions. The look of horror could be seen on their faces as they recognized the invader.
Suddenly, a blue barrier enveloped the entire planet, which prevented the spaceship’s advancement.
"These monkeys want to resist? Hoho..." Zero chuckled mischievously.
"Lord Zero, let’s fire the Plasma Gun." An alien beside him suggested.
Zero stood up, his tail constantly hitting the pavement. "Go on..." He looked at the inhabitants of the planet below scurrying everywhere. He regarded them with disdain.
