This is not the only function of the dragon spirit. If he is captured and in a terrible situation, the dragon spirit will be made aware of it, and help will be sent to him.
The connection to the dragon spirit ans that it is aware of every dragon that dies and knows their killers. That ans dragons will always be able to identify dragon slayers and avenge their deaths.
Those are probable and passive benefits. The active benefit, and probably the most important one he received from the dragon spirit, is that his ancestral bestowals have beco active now. The dragon spirit is what makes the imprint he received from his ancestors function.
He has an ancestral bestowal, which he gained from his father. But it isn't his father who will make it work, despite how powerful he is. If it were so, then other races would be able to bestow their young ones with power.
It is the dragon spirit that will allow the ancestral bestowal to function wherever he is, regardless of distance. The power of his father will be transferred across any distance to him when he needs it, and it won't harm him at all.
If his father becos an Origin god, then the imprint will also beco more powerful. But even an imprint from a re king of law will still be able to assist dragonlings regardless of distance because of the dragon spirit.
Fourth felt the changes in his body, but there is very little of it apart from the activated imprints. The increase in control of his dragon force because of his descent into his inner world is not obvious until he fights or practices. So he is eager to try it through a fight. Fortunately, the opportunity for fighting will co soon.
He looked around and noticed that the naming ceremony was not easy for others. So dragonlings were alive, but stunned by the experience. But so dragonlings lay on the ground, unable to rise ever again.
He observed silently. "It looks like so people overestimated themselves."
The naming ceremony is dangerous to dragonlings. The intrusion of the dragon spirit into their inner world is not without side effects. Most problems co from the instinctive resistance of the dragonlings to the intrusion. If they can't control their dragon force, then they will die when the dragon spirit attempts to descend into their dragon heart.
The other problem is the inability of the dragon heart to bear the burden of the intrusion. The dragonlings can reduce their resistance to the intrusion of the dragon spirit, but their inner world might be too weak to accept the presence of the dragon spirit, so they die.
The second option rarely causes deaths because dragonlings are fed well. As long as a dragonling is a hundred years old before the naming ceremony, then this shouldn't happen, even if they don't eat anything. Natural mana will strengthen them enough to bear the weight.
Now that they have died, it ans they were lacking in control. It is not a must for them to co for the naming ceremony now. They could have waited for the remaining 900 years before the next cycle. Even if they didn't co, they would still be invaded by the dragon spirit when it performs the plane-wide inspection, which makes eggs hatch.
So they didn't have to co for the naming ceremony at all. But they chose to co for the first naming ceremony. That ans they wanted to participate in the trial afterward and gain the support of the dragon spirit in controlling more than one elent.
It is clear that they overestimated themselves. He has no pity for them. But it did remind him of Third, who died yesterday. If Third had decided to participate in this naming ceremony, she would have probably died too.
Father said to him, "Prepare yourself for what is to co next. If you want to realize your full potential, you must win and get the assistance of the dragon spirit."
Fourth nodded and removed every distracting thought from his mind. He remained standing in front of the dragon spirit horde while so other dragons took off with their dragonlings. Most of the dragons that decided to leave were leaving with their dead dragonlings. What is about to happen doesn't concern them anymore. They are leaving to incinerate their dragonlings for their burial.
As for the others who are leaving with their living dragonlings, they must have lost confidence when they saw the struggle the dragonlings went through to survive the naming ceremony.
If they are already struggling in the naming ceremony, then their failure in the trial is certain. Only the best of the best dragonlings will succeed and get the help of the dragon spirit.
Fourth asked himself. "Am I the best of the best?"
He got his answer quickly during the fight against the other dragonlings, and 900 years later during the fight after the last naming ceremony. No one could stand in his way during the trial. He beat every challenger to his might up to the last fight 900 years later to decide who the best of the best would be.
First also joined the trial after 300 years of training. Her performance was excellent, but she couldn't compare to soone who had been fighting for 300 years. Second on the other hand didn't join the competition to gain the dragon spirit's help. He claid that he didn't need it.
Only fourth went far in the competition. He did more than survive. He was unstoppable. His performance was so eye catching that he got a title before he beca a titan of law. He was called the Little Lightning Tyrant. It is the title given to him by all the dragons for his excellent performance.
He wielded lightning like the wrathful incarnation of the heavens. His wrath was the punishnt of heaven's will. None of his agemates could bear it without being burned within an inch of their lives.
