KYAAH~
Elric could hear the resounding echo of the guardian Eels chasing after them. After quite a while, they seem to have finally awakened from being stunned and are now madly charging towards Elric"s location.
If he wanted, Elric could have just ended the lives of those guardian Eels with his Spear of fire. However, Elric wanted to enter this world with the least killing as much as possible. Ever since the power of the Ancestral Dragon was sealed with the G.o.d Reckoning Tribulation, Elric has found himself in this peaceful enlightenment and his hostile and killing nature seems to have disappeared as well.
Despite this, it doesn"t mean he wasn"t capable of killing anymore, It just happens that Elric would rather learn to control himself and back away from troubles or risk forcing himself to get hurt or lose control of the sealed Ancestral Dragon"s Essence again.
As much as possible, Elric would rather use the power of Authority of Fire than using the power of the Dragon inside him. He knew that every time he transforms into a Dragon, the power of the sealed corrupted Ancestral Essence would slowly seep out as well, bringing forth not just unspeakable power, but an unwanted corruption of soul as well. As much as possible, Elric would want to live in peace. The memory of such destruction was not something anyone can handle, not even him despite his newfound disposition.
Elric owed his current state to the G.o.d Reckoning tribulation and that mysterious voice that helped him regain back his consciousness. If it did not come just at the right time, the world could have gone to great danger because of him.
"They"re getting closer..." OMG Dash reminded Elric while tapping his head with his little flippers.
"I know. I need time to concentrate. Is there any way you can hold them for some time?"
"How do you expect me to fight them? With my current form, they could just swallow me like a fly!"
"But you can transform right?"
"You know how big my actual size right? How am I supposed to move? And don"t forget, it is you they are after not me! My cute little sh.e.l.l is not something they fancy a lot yah know."
"Sigh, all right then."
Under the shaking walls of the coral tunnel, Elric closed his eyes and immersed himself in the utmost concentration. Slowly, his mind drifted in darkness until he reached a door.
This door was pitch black smoking with a terrible aura of corruption. This is the representation of the sealed power inside him. Using the purifying technique he learned from the shared knowledge of Great Seer Mhata, Elric started to touch the pitch-black door.
WOooOOOm~
A pulling force suddenly engulfed Elric. He felt like his consciousness is being absorbed by the black door reminiscent of a powerful black hole. Not just his mind, but his sanity as well is being sucked forcefully.
Elric was reminded by this powerful force and he stelled his heart to maintain his ground. Slowly, the corrupting smoke crawled out of the cracks from the door and crept slowly at Elric"s body.
Realizing the corruption is starting to get a hold of him again, Elric"s eyes glared with unyielding determination. Casting the Authority of Fire with his will, he covered his whole essence with white purifying fire!
SHUT!
The door was pushed forcefully and the crawling smoke of corruption dissipated in instant.
"I own this mind, you shall follow me. Only light shall bind me."
With this small chant, Elric"s hand shone in blinding light of the white fire and the pitch-black door was instantly lit.
Elric"s body in his mind shone brightly as the black door"s power was suppressed. The door slowly opened but not a single smoke of corruption came out. Like shadow meeting light, the corruption behaved like a little dog.
Courage was not enough to face this darkness but confidence in your mind. With nothing to lose, Elric has every bit of courage he needed and the cleansing light brought by the G.o.d Reckoning Tribulation circulated in his body.
Elric went inside this door while covered in blinding light like a s.h.i.+ning heavenly being in a small room of darkness. The door immediately shut, and its pitch black color turns to white.
***
Back in his physical body, Elric"s eyes opened slowly. After a few rounds of deep breathing, he stood up to face the reflecting rock before him not minding the distant screech of the Eels.
Elric clenched his fist and his hand instantly transformed that resembles a Dragon"s arm.
The harder he clenched this dragon arm, the more power he was acc.u.mulating. Thanks to his newfound enlightenment and only using a small part of the dragon essence"s power, the corruption of his mind did not come out.

The small turtle looked at Elric"s arm with a gaping mouth.
Elric has slowly started to control the power of the Ancestral Dragon!
BOOOOM!~
With the resounding shock and power, Elric smashed the reflecting rock that blocked his way with a single blow. The power of his punch reverberated all over the tunnel and the shock eventually reached the incoming Eels and scared them away as well.
Elric stood proudly as the dust settled, revealing a beautiful horizon of colorful gra.s.s seaweeds and aquatic flora and fauna, he has never seen before.
Focusing his eyes in a distance, Elric could see a city made of corals and a giant coral-like-palace that was as big as the mountains! Just as Elric was about to step out, his instincts kicked in and he immediately jumped forward and avoided an unexpected attack!
Fwooosh-BOOOOM!~
Elric managed to grab the little turtle with him before the tunnel exit was further destroyed by an unseen power. Quickly, Elric scanned his surroundings and finally saw the culprit of the deadly attack.
The destructive attempt came from a gigantic Octopus who was guarding the exit. Thank"s to Elric"s sensitiveness to temperature brought to him by Dragon"s eyes, he finally saw the well-camouflaged giant octopus staring back at him with hostility.
"Giant snakes, giant turtles, giant eels and now giant octopus? Why am I always seeing giants this past few days? What"s next? Giant Mermaid?" Elric complained.
