"Abel The Blue Dragon, you haven't unlocked your bloodline inheritance. That's a problem. You know, without it, you will never be able to learn the training method of the dragons!" Blue Dragon Emmanuel lowered his voice, feeling a little guilty.
"Blue Dragon Emmanuel, what do I need to do to unlock my bloodline inheritance?" Abel asked. He knew his identity as a blue dragon was not real, and he had never heard of bloodline inheritance before.
"Bloodline inheritance is when the ancestors of the dragons infuse their knowledge into their bloodline," Blue Dragon Emmanuel couldn't help but ask, "Abel The Blue Dragon, how old are you?"
"I'm going to be 18 soon!" Abel immediately replied.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel's eyes widened. They were so big that they had broken the limit of a human. The nerves on his face couldn't help but twitch.
18 years old. What was Blue Dragon Emmanuel doing when he was 18 years old?
They should still be lying on the ground playing with mud. He thought of those newborn dragons and couldn't help but compare them to each other.
Abel, on the other hand, was only 18 years old. Even if he was not a dragon but a human, he was still a genius.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel thought about Abel's energy. A rank 15 wizard. This was too powerful. Dragons were already powerful when they were born, and they could even surpass elite wizards.
However, dragons had to go through their infancy stage first. A dragon's infancy stage was 100 years, which meant an 18 year old giant dragon at Abel's age would only be a little sturdier.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel was not surprised that Abel had the energy of a dual element Knight. With the body of a dragon, a Knight would only need to train his combat qi.
However, Abel was only 18 years old, and he could already train his combat qi to become a dual element Knight. This was something that Blue Dragon Emmanuel could not imagine.
Especially the aura of the Master Alchemist Rune. As for the Master Alchemist Rune, any race would show respect to it. Even the Dragon Race would look at the Master Alchemist Rune differently. The reason was very simple. There were too few Master Alchemists, and the works of Master Alchemists were very important.
"Abel The Blue Dragon, I know why you don't have a bloodline inheritance now!" Blue Dragon Emmanuel hesitated a little and said.
"What is it?" Abel quickly asked.
The bloodline inheritance of a dragon was something very powerful. If he could learn it, he might be able to break through to the level of a giant dragon.
Take Blue Dragon Emmanuel for example. Under the analysis of Abel's world stone fragment, even if Blue Dragon Emmanuel did not move, he would not be able to hurt him with his super exploding balls or magic cannons.
The super exploding ball and the magic cannon could only hurt Emmanuel. It was a blue dragon, after all. Once a blue dragon began to defend, it would be very hard to hurt itself.
"Abel The Blue Dragon, you are too young. The bloodline inheritance of a dragon will only be activated when you are 100 years old!" Blue Dragon Emmanuel smiled.
He was very confident in his answer. He believed that this was the reason why Abel was so young.
He didn't know why Abel had such a strong bloodline of a blue dragon. The dragons never asked about it, as long as the bloodline was real.
However, Abel was only eighteen years old. What could he do in eighteen years? For a giant dragon that had a lifespan of ten thousand years, eighteen years was just a short period of time.
"A bloodline inheritance can only be activated when you are 100 years old!" Abel mumbled in disappointment.
He thought to himself. If a bloodline inheritance could only be activated when he was 100 years old, it might not be useful to him at all.
With his current training speed, he might be able to surpass all the wizards in the Holy Continent in a few decades.
He was confident that he could beat Blue Dragon Emmanuel in 100 years.
"Abel The Blue Dragon, don't be disappointed. How about this, I'll teach you our special ice crystal breathing technique. It's the foundation of our training!" Blue Dragon Emmanuel saw Abel's disappointment, so he smiled.
For Abel, this special ice crystal breathing technique was not important. Once a new blue dragon was born, it would be taught to the young blue dragons so that they could start learning it.
Actually, Blue Dragon Emmanuel would've taught Abel the ice crystal breathing technique even if Abel didn't ask. Abel was already a genius among the blue dragons. Although this genius was a bit strange and couldn't transform into a real giant dragon, as long as his bloodline was real, it was fine.
"Blue Dragon Emmanuel, thank you so much!" Abel bowed in gratitude.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel reached out his finger and gently touched Abel's eyes. It was right where the world stone fragment was. If Abel didn't suppress it, the world stone fragment would've ignited on its own.
A message entered Abel's brain. It wasn't a lot, but it was a way to adjust one's breathing before sleep. The process was very complicated, and it must be very troublesome to practice.
"Ice crystal breathing technique. It's good to start with a young dragon. At that time, the young dragon will not be curious about this world, and it will be the most focused time. After learning it, the ice crystal breathing technique will become second nature to the young dragon!" Blue Dragon Emmanuel gazed at Abel and continued, "But it's not a good thing for you. You might have to spend years or even decades to learn it slowly. Only then can you reach the point where you can still use the ice crystal breathing technique in your sleep."
Abel nodded and opened the ice crystal breathing technique in his brain. He then turned on the world stone fragment's dynamic vision and data analysis ability.
The Ice Crystal Breathing Technique divided every breath into 18 segments, and each segment had a different rhythm. Furthermore, one had to pay attention to the fact that every 18 rounds of breathing had to be switched to a different breathing method. This breathing method also divided every breath into 18 segments.
There were 18 different breathing techniques, and you had to change to a different one every 18 rounds. It was a huge project.
What Blue Dragon Emmanuel didn't tell Abel was that many young dragons also needed years or even decades to master the ice crystal breathing technique.
Only the most talented Blue Dragons could learn the Ice Crystal Kokyu-ho within a year when they were young. This kind of Blue Dragon would basically become a true dragon powerhouse when they grew up.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel was one of these geniuses. It took him only a year to master the ice crystal breathing technique. It was the proudest thing in his life.
After Abel turned on the world stone fragment's ability, the complicated ice crystal breathing technique turned into simple numbers in his eyes. He knew how many seconds it took to breathe, and how many seconds it took to change to a different breathing technique.
Without realizing it, he began to try the ice crystal breathing technique in his brain. When the ice crystal breathing technique started, his main soul felt like it was falling asleep.
Suddenly, the Druil soul replaced his main soul and took over the control of the ice crystal breathing technique.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel smiled as he looked at Abel. He couldn't help but think of the little ones from the dragon race. They were the same. They fell asleep as they practiced, and the ice crystal breathing technique was messed up. In the end, the ice crystal breathing technique was a failure.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel had failed countless times like this before he slowly mastered the ice crystal breathing technique.
Although Abel had fallen asleep, little ice crystals began to form around him and spin around his body.
"Puff!" Blue Dragon Emmanuel spat out the grandmaster wine he was drinking. He didn't have time to be sad about it. Instead, he stared at Abel, who was practicing the ice crystal breathing technique.
God knew, Blue Dragon Emmanuel taught Abel the ice crystal breathing technique in order to temper Abel's personality. Abel was too impatient. He was only 18 years old, and he was already thinking about activating his bloodline.
Of course, Blue Dragon Emmanuel also wanted to strengthen Abel's body, and at least increase the power of Abel's ice elements. He didn't want to see the genius of a blue dragon die so young.
But what was going on in front of him? He had just taught Abel the Ice Crystal Breathing Technique, and he had only just learned how to use it in front of him.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel didn't say anything. He didn't drink anymore. He just watched Abel quietly. His long life had taught him how to wait.
There weren't many ice crystals on Abel's body. This was because they were in the sea. If they were on land, they wouldn't even be able to activate the ice crystals.
Yes, the ice crystal breathing technique required blue gems. Blue gems were the gems that dragons needed to train according to their elements.
The most common gems were basically useless to dragons. Only intermediate gems were useful to dragons. Since top-level gems were rare, most dragons would use intermediate gems.
Intermediate gems also meant that they wouldn't be able to train for too long, unless they had an assistant who could give them intermediate gems.
On the other hand, normal magic gems contained too little mana. It was not enough for a giant dragon to use.
Of course, the poorer dragons would also have their own methods. The main problem was that there were too few magic gems. The fire dragons would choose volcanoes or places with underground fire to train. The blue dragons would choose a pure water source to train. The other dragons would choose a location with the relevant energy to train.
The Dragon Abyss was one of these strange places. Most dragons could find a place to train in.
Before he knew it, 5 hours had passed. His body had just completed a full cycle of the ice crystal breathing technique. His main soul had also woken up. Of course, if he were to continue with the ice crystal breathing technique, he would have to do another 5 hours of ice crystal breathing technique training.
Abel opened his eyes and saw Blue Dragon Emmanuel looking at him. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Blue Dragon Emmanuel, I'm sorry. I didn't know I was training. I'm so sorry!" He bowed.
"Abel The Blue Dragon, please don't say that. You are a true genius. The ice crystal breathing technique requires a lot of gems. If you don't have enough, you should go to the Dragon Abyss and register your information with the dragons. Then you can get a set of gems every year for your training!" Blue Dragon Emmanuel suggested.
Abel hesitated. Blue Dragon Emmanuel was very nice, but he didn't know if the other dragons were as nice as him. He looked like a human, and he really was a human.
He really didn't lack gems. If he could give the perfect gems Flying Flame used for training to Blue Dragon Emmanuel, maybe Blue Dragon Emmanuel would want to become his summon.
"Blue Dragon Emmanuel, thank you. I have a duchy in the human world. I'm also a grandmaster blacksmith and a master alchemist, so I don't lack training resources!" Abel explained.
He didn't hide his grandmaster blacksmith status. Even if he didn't, Blue Dragon Emmanuel could ask around. He might as well say it now.
"Grandmaster blacksmith?" Blue Dragon Emmanuel was speechless. A Master Alchemist was already too much for him to handle, and now there was a Grandmaster Blacksmith as well. How could he not be shocked?
Blue Dragon Emmanuel thought about what he just thought. He thought he was a blue dragon genius, but in front of this eighteen year old blue dragon, he was nothing.
I have to be good friends with him!
That was what Blue Dragon Emmanuel thought. Although the dragons didn't have much in the world, it was still very important to be good friends with a powerful figure in the future.
Maybe he would need Abel's help in the future. Especially with his identity as a master alchemist, his talent for training, and now that he was a grandmaster blacksmith and the king of a duchy, it was not easy to add all of this together.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel quickly said, "Then when can I visit your duchy? According to the rules of the Dragon Abyss, I'm not allowed to go to the continent outside of the Dragon Abyss. But if you invite me, I can go!"
The reason why he explained so clearly was because he wanted to become a true friend with Abel. He knew that Abel had always lived in the human world, so according to his understanding of the human world, friends had to visit each other. That was the only way to deepen their relationship.
"When I get back to the Duchy of Carmel, I'll definitely invite you!" Abel promised.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel placed a small scale in Abel's hand and said, "Abel The Blue Dragon, this is one of my scales. I have some power of the will on it. If you need to contact me, just use your power of the will to activate it, and I'll know where you are. No matter where you are in the Holy Continent, I'll be there in half a day!"
Abel also took out a contact card and gave it to Blue Dragon Emmanuel, "Blue Dragon Emmanuel, this is my contact card. You can activate it in any teleportation circle, and you can contact my tower spirit. I'll know you're looking for me. Maybe I won't be there in time, but I'll try my best to help you if you need help!"
The contact card was an identification item. It could be used to contact Abel's magic tower spirit Flora through any teleportation circle. It was Abel's identity, and it meant that he could contact Abel anytime.
Abel always had a contact card like this, but he never gave it out. Because of his identity, anyone he thought was important could contact him directly. He didn't want to give it out to other people because it would only make things more troublesome.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel was different. Abel could feel friendship from him, and the friendship of a giant dragon was very important to him.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel's promise was like a talisman. If he was in danger, he just needed to hold on for half a day, and Blue Dragon Emmanuel would come to his rescue.
Abel and Blue Dragon Emmanuel had a great conversation. In the end, Blue Dragon Emmanuel took away two barrels of grandmaster wine and jumped up from Bai Yun's body. He transformed back into his giant dragon form and flew away after saying goodbye to Abel.
Abel held the blue dragon scale in his hand and thought back to everything that had just happened. He didn't expect to gain so much from this trip. He hadn't even reached his destination, but there were already so many things that happened.
"Bai Yun, let's go back to our original route!" Abel said to Bai Yun.
The map in his mind showed that he had deviated far from his original route. He passed the map to White Cloud through the soul chain, then sat back in his chair.
Only now did he have the time to take a closer look at his condition. Just now, he discovered that his body seemed to have undergone a slight change.
As expected, his vitality, which had been stagnant for a long time, increased from 55 to 55.01. Although it was only a 0.01 increase, the meaning was completely different.
His vitality had long surpassed the limit of a human. A human Knight's vitality limit was 50. Because of all the things that happened to him, he was able to reach 55, which was the limit of a human Knight. Since then, his vitality had not changed.
But now, after just one practice of the Ice Crystal Breathing Technique, his vitality had increased once again. He also had a feeling that the Ice Crystal Breathing Technique didn't absorb too much energy this time. If he practiced it for a long time, his strength and agility would also change.
Although the ice crystal breathing technique didn't change his strength and dexterity, the data analysis ability of the world stone allowed him to clearly sense a slight increase in his strength and dexterity. Although this increase wasn't reflected in the numbers, it was a real increase.
This Ice Crystal Breathing Technique would replace the Knight's Breathing Technique in the future. He just didn't know if he could teach it to others.
With that in mind, he turned to Flying Flame and asked, "Flying Flame, can other races use the dragon's training method?"
Flying Flame was already a young dragon, but it leveled up. It had already received part of the dragon's heritage during its leveling up process, which was why Abel was asking about it.
Flying Flame replied through the soul chain, "Unless you have the bloodline of a dragon, you will die. Perhaps master's descendants will have the bloodline of a dragon, and they will be able to practice it as well."
Abel's first thought was that he really did have the bloodline of a dragon. Otherwise, he would've died as soon as he started practicing the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique.
However, Blue Dragon Emmanuel never said that only those with the bloodline of a dragon could practice it. If he knew that, he wouldn't have dared to risk his life.
But then again, Blue Dragon Emmanuel could tell that Abel had the bloodline of a blue dragon. That was why he taught the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique to Abel.
After hearing Flying Flame's explanation, Abel gave up on the idea of using the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique as his family's training method. It seemed like he could only use this powerful training method himself.
Abel looked up at the sky. It was getting dark. He couldn't enter the Dark World on the surface of the sea. If he went in from here, he might just fall into the sea.
Abel took out a small mana gathering circle and placed it on Bai Yun's back. He then took out 200 perfect blue gems and prepared to practice the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique.
Although the conditions were a bit harsh, and it was not as good as the conditions in his own magic tower, this was the best he could prepare.
Of course, if Blue Dragon Emmanuel knew what he was thinking, he would probably spit ice mist in his face. 200 perfect blue gems. Most giant dragons would not be able to meet this condition.
Although giant dragons had a long lifespan, perfect blue gems were too rare. Although they had been collecting them, they were also constantly using them. Of course, they couldn't just store them like decorations.
Luckily, there was enough space on Bai Yun's back. Abel was able to set up a small mana gathering circle with Flying Flame and Snow White.
Flying Flame had a few hundred perfect red gems beside it, but Snow White just leveled up. It needed to stabilize its condition, so it could only slowly get used to its power.
The Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique appeared in Abel's mind again. When he slowly closed his eyes and relaxed his mind, he fell into a deep sleep. The sub-soul of the Druil quickly took over the main soul's job and continued to operate the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique.
Unlike what he did in front of Blue Dragon Emmanuel, he had a small mana gathering circle and 200 perfect blue gems around him. As soon as he went to sleep, countless ice crystals began to appear around him. The density of the crystals was shocking.
As time passed, these ice crystals slowly gathered together and formed a giant ice crystal. Abel was wrapped in this giant ice crystal. If he wasn't still breathing inside, he might have thought he was dead.
As the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique was running, pure ice elements entered his body. If it was anyone else, even a Head Knight, they would have been injured by the ice elements. This ice element was too pure.
However, Abel's body welcomed it. Every single cell of his was devouring it.
A real Blue Dragon wouldn't have much of an effect when using the Ice Crystal Breathing Technique. The Ice Crystal Breathing Technique was a gradual process for a Blue Dragon.
However, Abel was different. His body was more like a human, but at the same time, he had the characteristics of a Blue Dragon. This made his body much weaker than a real Blue Dragon, but he could still accept the effects of the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique.
Therefore, the effect of the Ice Crystal Breathing Technique was very obvious. His body, strength, and dexterity were all changing.
Five hours had passed, and the first round of training had ended. Just as he was about to continue the second round of training, he realized that his spirit sense was giving him a warning, which made him wake up with a start and stop the ice crystal breathing technique.
After he opened his eyes, he once again tried to understand the warning from his spirit sense. He found that his spirit sense had calmed down again, as if it was there to prevent him from using the second round of the Ice Crystal Breathing Technique.
He scanned his body with his psychic power and discovered that the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique had increased his Vitality, Strength, and Dexterity by a little bit. This was not to be underestimated. Right now, it was extremely difficult for his body to improve even a little bit.
Most importantly, his body felt like it was full. With the world stone's data analysis ability and his analysis, he would need at least five days to recover his body's saturation state.
During this time, he couldn't train the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique again. If he used it again, his body would be severely damaged.
Even if he had the "full recovery vitality potion," he wouldn't use it in his training. It was powerful, but it wasn't omnipotent. The ice crystal breathing technique was the training method of the dragons. He didn't know what kind of accident would happen if he forced himself to train, so it was best to train according to his body's limit.
Abel felt the increase in his attributes, so he kept hitting the air. He wanted to learn how to control his new attributes better.
The rest of the journey was very smooth. With Bai Yun's invisibility ability, and sometimes Abel would release his dragon essence to scare away the spiritual beasts that were in his way.
5 days later, when Abel trained the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique for the second time, he realized that this training method didn't have the same effect as the first time. It only increased his body, strength, and dexterity by 0.5 points.
He had already thought of this situation. Any kind of cultivation method would have a significant effect at the beginning of cultivation. Then, as time passed, the effect would slowly weaken and eventually stop at a point of equilibrium.
Abel had just started training the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique, so it was still declining. He didn't know what the balance point was for him. It would take some time to find out.
On the sixth day, Abel was already close to the location marked on the map given to him by the dwarfs.
He had been searching for two whole days, but he still couldn't find the island. He didn't think the dwarfs were playing with him. He believed that if the island could exist in the middle of the ocean, it must have its own means of protection.
This was the world of the sea spirit beasts. There were a lot of powerful sea spirit beasts. According to Blue Dragon Emmanuel, this area was still the territory of the dragons, so any spirit beasts that were too powerful would be chased away by the dragons.
Even so, those top-level spiritual beasts were still very destructive. At least with Abel's current ability, he couldn't win against them.
"Commander spirit, start scanning. Find a small island!" Abel commanded with his power of the will.
"Yes, headmaster!" The commander spirit replied.
The scanning ability of the commander spirit was very energy-consuming. Even in ancient times, it would only be activated during wartime. It was not like Abel, who would ask to be activated whenever he wanted to find something.
Abel didn't care about energy. This was his advantage, and the commander spirit could be used to its fullest potential.
At the same time, Abel let Flying Flame and Snow White leave Bai Yun and fly around at a low altitude. At the same time, he unleashed all of his dragon essence.
Although the dragon aura wasn't that strong, it was still a few times stronger than before Emmanuel the blue dragon.
This was also due to the Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique. The Blue Dragon Ice Crystal Breathing Technique had transformed his body to become even more powerful, and the dragon's aura he emitted was also related to his physique.
Another day had passed. Abel and his summons had almost turned the entire ocean upside down, but they still couldn't find that small island.
"Could it be under the ocean?" Abel thought of a possibility.
However, he wasn't good at searching under the ocean. His summons didn't have an advantage in this area.
Bai Yun and Snow White were birds, so they couldn't enter the water. Although Flying Flame could enter the water, it was a young fire dragon.
Even the fighting power of a young fire dragon would be suppressed on the surface of the ocean. Once it entered the ocean, it would be lucky if it could even unleash 20% of its power.
