Slowly, his body absorbed the purest form of water essence from the pearl inside him and he had experienced another form of euphoria. A liberating feeling that seems to bring him unstoppable calmness, joy, and confidence.
With a clear mind and body, Elric could feel that the future is in his hands. His eyes gleamed with clarity, his body even perfectly toned. His now pure-black hair waved with grace and shone in vibrancy.
His normal power has almost doubled compared before even without using his Dragon strength. He felt his spirit releasing its wings on its back and he could fly any moment. Wherever his sight landed, the details were as clear as to the point of the magnified level. Even the dust from the small rocks one kilometer away was finely detailed in his perception.
Noticing the changes in his body, Elric felt his senses reaching a deeper level of sensitivity. His nose could decern more scent and trace them. His ears could hear and pick specific sounds without being distracted from the other noises. His skin jumped in electrifying power that traveled across every cell making his body.
With his eyes close, the senses even peaked in sharpness, clearly revealing the sound, smell and even intentions of different creatures nearby. He could almost hear and smell their thoughts.
With such power, Elric knew he is now ready for bigger challenges. With such capacity, reaching full potential in using the Ancestral Dragon would not be impossible in the future. Elric knew his body needed these kinds of things. Those that would help him push forward in spiritual resistance is the key in unlocking his full power and defeat the bomb ticking inside him in the form of the Ancestral Dragon Essence.
With this power, Elric can now go forward.
He felt unstoppable.
"The water tribulation..." Elric scanned the whole area again and assessed the damage he did in the area.
From the place he was standing, the fine sand reached as far as two kilometers.
"I guess the God of Destruction is my past life best friend." Elric sighed. It seems wherever he goes, destruction follows. Even taking a small pearl caused such destruction. He realizes that he must avoid sticking with people as long as he can. With the curse of destruction he brings, he is not sure how he could maintain to have normal friends anymore.
Deep inside, Elric decided he will avoid to have a more intimate relationship or contact anyone as much as possible. He must finish what he needs to do fast and leave as quietly as possible.
Watching the massive scale of the water tribulation, Elric finally made up his mind.
With the authority of water in him and as well as the wisdom from the "World Knowledge" given to him by the Great Seer Matha, Elric clasped his hands as his body released a brilliant glow.
"With the Authority of water, I command thee heal thy land." Elric channeled as he released his aura of the Authority of Water.
A wave of healing power just as King Mahar did to save and revive his people also flowed across the area, covering the entire now-desert field in just mere seconds.
With each passing seconds, the sand hardened to become its former rock state. Colors started to appear and beautiful flowers and corals sprouted from here and there.
With Elric's renewed wisdom and power, the whole area recovered in just a few minutes. Although not looking exactly as before, but the recovered land is slowly making new adjustments towards its former glory.
"Done!" Elric smiled as he watched the land recover its color and life in no time. His clear eyes reflected the new life it has received and he could not help but laugh in happiness.
The healing wave took some significant energy from him and he felt a little dizzy. Despite such a draining spell, Elric still did what he must to fix the damage he has done.
Truly, the gift of the Great Seer Mhata was something that he never knew would help him a lot in his future endeavors. But despite of the sheer knowledge himself, there are still pieces of wisdom that Elric needs to find out.
A good example is the Healing Wave ability. Without the spiritual breakthrough, the Authority of Water in him and physical cleansing, using such power is near to impossible.
So far, only those who have survived the water Tribulation summoned by the Spirit Cleansing Pearl is capable of using the Healing Wave. Thus, in the history of the water realm, only the late King Mahar and Elric had managed to use such an incredible spell.
The previous lord Aghus could only blow his head trying to do it without the Spiritual Cleansing Pearl. Even Dash is not capable of doing such until he survives the Water Tribulation as well.
Despite the extraordinary benefit brought by the "World Knowledge", without the required tools and bases, Elric would still not able to apply that knowledge.
Basically speaking, the majority of the knowledge Elric found at the World Knowlege is just like textbooks of an unknown language. Unless he found the proper way of understanding their letters and purpose, Elric still has a long way to go.
Right now, he still has the Authority of Earth, Wind, and Lightning to collect and be able to conjure more skills revealed to him by the World Knowledge. Thinking of future potential, Elric could not help but shudder in excitement.
Just as he was about to leave to go back at the Golden Palace to bade his farewell, Elric's face suddenly frowned with his senses noticing a familiar aura.
Quickly, he looked towards a certain direction and said:
"What isn't this Diana and her pet's aura?" Elric's face suddenly frowned.
"Wait... How come there is another Lord aura nearby?"
Elric closed his eyes to focus on his senses. With his renewed spiritual ability, his mental senses were like a modern war radar capable of scanning the area hundreds of kilometers in just a few seconds.
He continued to observe the aura of the creatures nearby especially on a certain powerful aura comparable to a Lord's. He followed it and suddenly realized a dangerous motive.
"...It is aiming for Diana?!"
BOOOOM!~
And just like that, Elric left the area leaving towering dust of his sudden burst of speed.
