The Mighty Dragons Are Dead

If this is the remnant of an Elemental Dragon, then the type of Elemental Dragon it represents has become clear, the blue and white Superior Magic on the remnants is unmistakably Water Attribute Super Magic.

So it seems,

The remains of this dragon are most likely left by a Water Dragon.

"Wow, with no minerals this deep, it proves it's not a Metal Dragon nor a Gemstone Dragon, and it's definitely not a Sacred Dragon, even less likely an Evil Dragon... So it must be the remains of a Water Dragon!" Liszt concluded. As for why the remains of a Water Dragon would support a secret realm devoid of water, he still couldn't figure out the reason.

The soil in the secret realm was very loose, making it easy and pleasant to excavate with the Bone Dragon. After several hours of work, he had dug a huge pit over a hundred meters deep and unearthed the entire skeleton of the Water Dragon.

All the bones had already scattered, but with his knowledge of dragons, he was still able to piece together all the bone fragments. From the reconstructed skeleton, it could be determined that this Water Dragon had a rather slender build, with the longest neck of all known dragons. Its total body length was eighty-five meters, with a wingspan of ninety meters.

Larger than a Light Dragon with an eighty-meter wingspan, but smaller than a Fire Dragon with a one hundred meter wingspan.

The size of a dragon is not the standard by which its combat power is judged; however, usually, the larger the size, the stronger the combat power is likely to be, and the Water Dragon's combat power obviously appears very formidable.

"The Superior Magic is still within the dragon bones; the degree of decay of these remains is much less than that of the Remains of the Fire Dragon on Black Horse Island." Looking at the bone skeleton brimming with magical energy, Liszt's heartbeat quickened again, and he couldn't help but breathe more rapidly, "If a Fire Dragon can be reborn from its remains, why not a Water Dragon?"

His eyes sparkled brilliantly as he took several deep breaths while looking at the skeleton.

He slowly calmed his restless emotions, "Now, I just need to find a way to resurrect the Water Dragon... I have the experience of successfully reviving the Fire Dragon, so I can do it again... Or, I could leave it to Ach!"

After all, this concerned an Elemental Dragon whose value was immeasurable. Liszt preferred to trust Ach's expertise rather than probe uncertainly on his own.

To be honest, Liszt still had no clear idea why Little Fire Dragon Leo was able to be born.

Since he had taught Ach all he knew, he had become too lazy to think and left the research to the professionals, just waiting to reap the results.

He tapped on the dragon bones.

The Dragon's Super Magic within the bones shivered, as if, like the few large bones remaining from the Fire Dragon, there was life being nurtured amongst the magic.

...

Leaving the secret realm.

Liszt quickly followed the Mermaids back to the Overmarine Laboratory, then he told Ach about the Water Dragon remains in the secret realm, and Ach quickly halted her current Devil research work—or rather, the research of the Cursed Dragon, as she had recently been analyzing the power of the Cursed Dragon.

She was close to concluding a new categorization of magical elements—Soul.

Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Light, Ice, Darkness, those are the eight basic magical elements recognized; Metal, some Magicians believe that the magic of the Metal Dragon, even that of the Gemstone Dragon, is the Metal element; Wood, some Magicians believe that the magic of the Elfs represents the Wood element, or the Nature element, Druid Magic is roughly similar to this.

Additionally, the Space element is the magic of the Formless Dragon, and the Time element should be the magic of the Twilight Dragon.

The fate represented by the Smoke Dragon, the mind or dreams represented by the Jade Dragon, the life represented by the Immortal Dragon, whether these are considered as concepts of magical elements, is uncertain.

Now.

Ach's research into the power of the Cursed Dragon has gradually unified her perception of the Soul, believing it to be a special kind of magical element, the Soul Element. And curses are but one application of the Soul Element; other things like Lich, Ghost Ship, and so on, are all branched applications of the Soul Element.

"Brother, Soul Element is different from the ordinary magic elements; after all, the soul involves the spirit, it's the third basic foundation of the world beyond matter and magic power," Ach shared her speculation with Liszt while swimming in the ocean, "Reviving the Fire Dragon must have been where you inadvertently touched the Soul Element."

"Having heard what you said, I suddenly recall how tapping on the Fire Dragon's remains had no effect. However, when I used materials from the Ghost Ship as fuel, Leo was quickly born... It seems that for reviving an Elemental Dragon, the most crucial factor is the involvement of the Soul Element!"

"Yes."

"So now that we are out of Ghost Ship materials, Ach, how are we going to resolve the Soul Element?"

Ach smiled cheekily, "Has brother forgotten? Ach has been researching the power of the Cursed Dragon recently and has collected a lot of pure Soul Elements. If the Water Dragon's resurrection principle is the same as the Fire Dragon's, surely these Soul Elements can be used to resurrect a Little Water Dragon for brother."

Seeing Ach's confidence, Liszt was elated, "Haha, once you resurrect the Little Water Dragon, I will have my seventh dragon."

And as an Elemental Dragon, the Water Dragon would have no problem traversing the great seas.

It meant that once he rode the Water Dragon, he could roam the seas too, and as a Water Dragon Knight, he would no longer be confined to the skies.

They arrived at the center of the secret realm.

Ach quickly started examining the Water Dragon skeleton on the ground.

This study took a whole day and night, and finally, Ach concluded, "The Remains of the Water Dragon are full of Superior Magic, but like what I told brother about the Remains of the Fire Dragon, the Soul Element has been exhausted. Now, with the injection of the Soul Element and subsequent resonance, the remaining life force of the Fire Dragon can be awakened."

In fact, the theory was very complicated, and Ach's short explanation was just for Liszt's easy understanding, "Now, how can I assist?"

"Brother just needs to initiate the Dragon's Super Magic resonance, and Ach will inject the Soul Elements collected during this time, then, using a Magic Array to amplify the effect, I believe the Water Dragon can be resurrected quickly... In fact, Elemental Dragons are quite miraculous, they must have considered the issue of resurrection when they died, having long stored their life force deep within their bones."

"Understood!"

So, Ach started to collect and arrange the materials for the Magic Array.

Although Liszt had nothing to do, he wasn't idle either, trying to transplant three secret realm plants respectively named "Earth Banana," "Nameless Flower," and "Bare Tree" to the ground. The transplantation was naturally taken over by the Magicians from the Magic Guild, who found suitable planting environments.

In this way, by mid-May, when the weather turned hot,

Liszt stood in the center of the already prepared Magic Array, keeping company with the Water Dragon remains, while Ach stood beside, holding a large glass bottle with a faint wisp of smoke swirling inside—it was the pure Soul Element collected from the Cursed Dragon and other sources.

"Ach, are you ready?"

"Mhm."

"Then let's begin." Liszt took a deep breath, his Superior Magic Dragon Dou Qi began to circulate, and he started drumming on the Water Dragon remains to provoke the vibration of the Dragon's Super Magic.

The vibration got more and more intense, quickly reaching the degree of resonance.

At that moment, Ach pulled the stopper from the bottle and poured out the Soul Element. The next instant, the Dragon's Super Magic began resonating. That miraculous reaction happened swiftly - the Dragon's Super Magic permeated out of the dragon bones and merged with the spreading Soul Element smoke, forming a blue and white Magic Form of a little dragon.

The little dragon let out a "yoho" cry of infancy, before plunging into Liszt's body.

Boom!

A wondrous Mind Connection rippled through Liszt's mind, and he quickly felt an affectionate little creature burrowing into his abdomen, hiding in his left kidney. However, the creature seemed uncomfortable, so it swiftly switched to the right kidney, but still didn't feel right.

Then,

It split in two, half taking residence in the left kidney, half in the right, linking the two parts together with Magic Power.

"Yoho!"

This time, it let out a joyous cry.
