Chapter 351: The Soul of the Ocean Whale and the Promise of the Ray Saint
Chapter 351: The Soul of the Ocean Whale and the Promise of the Ray Saint
In the imperial capital, Dragon City, the world between reality and fantasy persisted.
This time, the towering figure that had stood there before was not at the top of the tall tower where reality and fantasy intersected. Instead, it slowly strolled to a special place.
The surging sound of water seemed to come from all directions, and the figure slowly walked into it, sinking beneath the surface. Soon, it arrived at a special world beneath the water's surface.
The gurgling water sounds filled the air, but the figure didn't seem to mind at all. Instead, it sat down on one of the large thrones in the underwater palace.
The next moment, another ethereal figure appeared, curled up in an extremely peculiar posture on a separate throne.
It seemed to be fused with the underwater body that glowed with a faint blue light, and the purest water element seemed to be gathered on it.
A voice spoke from within the figure:
"Why has the Holy Dragon come to the Water Palace?"
The voice hummed with an indescribable peculiar feeling.
The words spoken were in the ancient and intuitive language of Snake Script.
The man's figure extended his palm, and something extra appeared.
It was a turquoise bead.
The bead itself didn't seem particularly precious or magical.
However, within the bead, there seemed to be a very special soul fluctuation.
"This is..."
The ethereal figure, merged with the water element, also paused for a moment upon seeing the bead, seemingly unsure of what it was.
The man's figure then spoke:
"The Water Saint has been here."
As his words fell, an ethereal figure condensed at the bottom of the water.
It was none other than the figure resembling a beautiful mermaid.
Although the man's words were spoken in the language of the Dragon Kingdom, the effect of his words becoming law still made it hard for others to comprehend.
"Oh, so this is the legendary Water Element's apology?"
The Water Dragon's ethereal figure glanced at the bead in the man's hand, then continued to speak in the ancient language:
"It doesn't seem extraordinary, but it's indeed not a big deal. However, after so many years in the Boundless Sea, apart from the Snake Kingdom, the other kingdoms have indeed become closer to us.
Having such an ancient legend come here will indeed be helpful for the Boundless Sea. The Holy Dragon didn't stop the resurrection ritual, probably for this reason?"
The man didn't answer the Water Dragon's question. Instead, he continued:
"This is a Monarch-grade Soul Orb and a Saint-grade Soul Anchor Wick."
The man's words didn't surprise the Water Dragon.
It merely glanced at the bead once more.
The Soul Orb, an Imperial-grade resource, could contain a soul.
The Soul Anchor Wick, a Saint-grade resource, was even more remarkable, as it could preserve the vitality and wisdom of a soul indefinitely.
Su Ping had used the latter when cultivating an external incarnation.
However, it was evident that these items in the man's possession weren't valued for their resourcefulness.
The Water Dragon's ethereal figure seemed to understand the man's intention. It extended its dragon claw and held the Soul Orb in its palm, sensing it for a moment before its blue eyes widened slightly:
"The soul of an Ocean Whale that was only Monarch-grade in its lifetime? Such a grand gesture for just this item? Although Ocean Whales are rare and precious pets, with Imperial-grade potential as adults, it's still not quite like this."
Moreover, if this item were to be discussed normally, it should be sent to the Burial Ground, where it would be of more interest.
The man blinked and then spoke concisely:
"This is the Soul Orb of the Ocean Whale pet..."
"Hmm?"
The Water Dragon paused for a second, seemingly recalling who the man had mentioned.
Then, silence filled the air.
After a while, the Water Dragon continued:
"The Water Saint has indeed been thoughtful. I didn't expect that those fish offspring influenced by the Sea God, would still be of some use. This is indeed a grand gift. What do you plan to do with it?"
The man didn't rush to answer, but after a pause, he continued:
"I want to restore the 'Sea Embrace' cultivation method. Zhu Hong has also been in Dragon City during this time, and I'll ask him to help you in the Water Palace."
Upon hearing this, the Water Dragon's ethereal figure brightened:
"Then, we must thank the Holy Dragon."
The man shook his head:
"The Water Saint also has conditions. It wants to search for traces of the Phoenix Resurrectionist in the Dragon Kingdom and promises not to harm commoners. I've made a pact with it to fulfill this condition."
"I see... but even if..."
"Rest assured, its arrival is just a special avatar. Although its abilities are unique, it can't escape my restrictions.
Upon hearing the man's words, the Water Dragon's virtual image finally let out a sigh of relief:
"Since the Holy Dragon is confident, I won't say more. Nie Chuan was once the Dragon Trainer of the Four Seas Dragon Palace, and now it's a case of returning to its rightful owner. Back then, Nie Chuan's main research was on whether the Ocean Embrace skill could be cultivated on the Water Dragon, but unfortunately, he failed to achieve it before his death.
Now, with Zhu Hong's help and the Ocean Whale's memories, it's possible to complete his unfinished work."
The man didn't say anything else and disappeared from the Water Dragon's sight, leaving the special underwater dragon palace within the Dragon City.
Only the faint Water Dragon virtual image remained, still coiled in the palace. It gazed at the Soul Orb in its claws, lost in thought.
After a while, it revealed a smile and whispered to itself:
"The Four Seas Dragon Palace has been dormant for many years, and it's time for it to rise again. If not, the people of Dragon City will forget that our palace has also produced talented individuals, like Meng Yao, the only human Dragon Trainer to reach the Saint Spirit rank."
However, a strange glow flashed across the Water Dragon's face, and its eyes sparkled with an unusual light.
The next moment, a virtual screen made of water flows appeared before it, and a voice came from the screen:
"Sea Elder!"
The Water Dragon virtual image responded, "Oh? Is that you, young Meng Yao? I thought you were in the Jiang Hai region. Have you returned to Dragon City? Ha ha, you're quite lucky. I have some good news to share with you."
This time, the Water Dragon virtual image used the Dragon Language instead of the snake script to communicate.
It was unavoidable, as using the Dragon Language when facing certain individuals could make one susceptible to their influence, becoming a puppet under their control.
But facing Meng Yao, the Water Dragon didn't need to worry about such things.
"I also have some good news to share with you!" Meng Yao's voice, coming from the other side of the screen, was equally excited, causing the Water Dragon virtual image to raise an eyebrow:
"Oh? What news?"
"The evolution of the Rainbow Dragon has made new breakthroughs and progress!" Meng Yao exclaimed.
The Water Dragon King was taken aback: "Rainbow Dragon?"
What progress could there be on this matter?
The Rainbow Coral Worm, the Rainbow Dragon's existence, how could it not know?
After all, when the Dragon Gate detected the Rainbow Coral Worm's dragon genes, which could evolve into a dragon, and its rare dual attributes of water and light, it was a big deal.
The Water Dragon had even personally participated in the research and evolution of the Rainbow Dragon.
But unfortunately, the final result was somewhat disappointing.
It had cost a huge price to obtain over a dozen Rainbow Coral Worms, only to find that not a single one showed any signs of evolution.
And now, Meng Yao told it that there had been progress outside, without any breakthroughs in research and evolution in Dragon City?
Wasn't that just nonsense?
"You're talking nonsense. There are barely any Rainbow Coral Worms outside, let alone evolving into a dragon. If it were that simple, the Breeding Association would have done it already."
The Water Dragon virtual image retorted, unamused.
"Really, and this person has the Dragon Emblem, which will allow them to enter Dragon City and choose a dragon companion and corresponding dragon heritage in the future! Sea Elder, this is a talented individual, and we can't let them slip away!" Meng Yao's words made the Water Dragon King realize that the young man wasn't joking.
The Water Dragon King wasn't in a hurry to discuss Nie Chuan's Ocean Whale soul with Meng Yao and instead asked:
"What's going on?"
"Do you remember Su Ping? His family raised a Rainbow Coral Worm, and I gave him the dragon palace's breeding methods. As a result, in just over half a month, he's made a new breakthrough in the evolution of the Rainbow Coral Worm. I have a feeling that this evolved Rainbow Coral Worm has a higher chance of successfully evolving into a Rainbow Dragon compared to the ones we've produced in Dragon City!" Meng Yao's voice came quickly.
"Su Ping..."
The Water Dragon King thought for a moment before responding:
"Isn't he the one who applied for the Dragon Emblem, claiming to be the youngest Dragon Emblem holder?"
The old ghost from the Burial Ground had previously announced that a particular young man was his chosen successor.
"Yes! That's him! Not only is Su Ping naturally gifted in raising ordinary pets, but he's also quite skilled in dragon pet research!"
The Ray Saint quickly interjected.
The Sea Dragon King's eyebrows furrowed.
"That little guy doesn't even know himself, but in fact, many in Dragon City are keeping an eye on him. And didn't you say that he's quite interested in the Jade Dreamland?"
You should know that the owner of the Dragon Emblem entering Dragon City is different from the Beast Tamers who directly receive dragon pets as rewards for various achievements in the Dragon Kingdom. In this regard, we can't force our will on them.
By the way, how did that little guy do it, and what form of pet did he evolve into?"
He didn't pursue the matter of Ray Saint casually handing over the Four Seas Dragon Palace's pet cultivation to someone else.
Meng Yao was a man who knew what he was doing, and the evolution and cultivation of the Rainbow Dragon had indeed been almost completely abandoned by the Four Seas Dragon Palace, and it wasn't that important in itself.
It was precisely because of this that Su Ping was able to create a brand new evolved form, which also piqued the interest of the Sea Dragon King.
After that, he told the Sea Dragon King about the Rainbow Prism Butterfly that Su Ping had evolved earlier, as well as the theory he had mentioned before about the failed evolution of the Rainbow Coral Worm in Dragon City.
As expected, after hearing these words, the Dragon King of the Four Seas Dragon Palace also seemed a bit lost.
However, it must be said that if the Rainbow Dragon were to succeed, it would represent a brand new special dragon breed in the Four Seas Dragon Palace's heritage.
The significance of this was undoubtedly immense.
Then, the Sea Dragon King, from the Four Seas Dragon Palace in Dragon City, suddenly became excited:
"Good! Meng Yao, this matter is up to you! No matter what, we can't let a suitable dragon pet cultivator for my Four Seas Dragon Palace slip away! If there's anything you need or any help required, you can contact me at any time..."
"Good!"
He put down the special communicator in his hand.
Ray Saint let out a long sigh.
Then, he summoned his Water Dragon 'Shangshan' with a thought:
"Ashan, Su Ping is quite interested in you. You're the most handsome Water Dragon in our Four Seas Dragon Palace. These days, you should stay outside and observe the Rainbow Prism Butterfly for a while. I estimate that he'll be observing it for a few days.
You should sacrifice yourself and spend more time with him in the water, playing and protecting his safety. Who knows, maybe because of this, the little guy will want a Water Dragon too? Did you hear me?"
"Argh!" Water Dragon Shangshan glared, he was the future Dragon King! The future pillar dragon of the Four Seas Dragon Palace!
Was this a sacrifice?
Even if it was his master's order, he would never agree!
However, it was quite clear that Ray Saint had already anticipated this stubbornness,
So, he paused for a moment before continuing:
"This matter, the Sea Lord has just instructed!"
Water Dragon Shangshan didn't care at all. The Sea Lord? The old Sea Lord! Even if the Saint Dragon Legend came, he wouldn't sacrifice himself to please a human.
No way! But the next moment, Ray Saint continued:
"Ashan, the Sea Lord is the blood relative of the Ice Dragon King in our Four Seas Dragon Palace."
Water Dragon Shangshan's eyes widened: "Argh?"
Ice Dragon King? Which Ice Dragon King? "In our Four Seas Dragon Palace, there's another Ice Dragon King? Moreover, in the entire Dragon City, when the name Ice Dragon King is mentioned, isn't it referring to our Dragon King?"
Although the reputation wasn't that good.
Ray Saint smiled slyly.
Suddenly, at a visible speed, the Water Dragon, who had just argued for his integrity, swallowed his saliva, as if he had thought of something. His deep blue eyes blinked.
Ten minutes later, Water Dragon Shangshan, who seemed to have all his strength drained, followed Ray Saint and returned to Su Ping's side by the Water Heart.
Su Ping glanced at the two of them: "Have you finished your business?"
Ray Saint nodded:
"That's right, the Dragon King is quite surprised by your research on the Rainbow Dragon, Su Ping. As a token of appreciation, Su Ping, would you like me to help modify your Water Heart? At the same time, you can study Ashan more during this period, which might be helpful for the next stage of your Rainbow Dragon's cultivation and evolution."
As he spoke, he patted the Water Dragon Shangshan beside him, who quickly let out a loud howl, indicating that he was also looking forward to it and approved.
Upon hearing this, Su Ping's eyes lit up.
