I'm not sure Dr. Julien knew he was a descendant, if he was one. He might have just found or have inherited Zane's power source. I think that his power source is definitely behind his power, but as far as what it is or where it comes from, I have no idea.

It might be that the original master of ice was dying and Julien found him, but there was nothing he could do to help him. So fearing his power would be lost forever, because he didn't have descendants, he created the power source and asked The Dr. to make sure it would live on. Hence Zane being created to help people.

But this raises another question... How'd he still have powers after he was destroyed? Did his half of the power source survive? Or was Pixal's half enough?
