As a Legendary-mage with an enormous amount of mental strength, Lin Li had a body almost filled with endless mana. Since coming to Anril, Lin Li had never been troubled by the lack of mana in every battle he had. However, he had overestimated his abilities this time. The baby Elemental Wyrm was like an endless hole, and had absorbed almost all of his mana already.

Lin Li groaned internally. While the mana used up was refillable, exhausting all mana was detrimental to a mage. However, Lin Li didn’t have control over the current situation. His inner mana was totally out of control, and he could only pray that the baby Elemental Wyrm could be merciful.

However, the baby Elemental Wyrm evidently hadn’t heard Lin Li’s prayer. It shifted its focus to Lin Li and absorbed his mana with higher intensity.

Lin Li didn’t even have time to think of strategies before his mana totally ran out. He directly blacked out and fainted with rage and sorrow.

Not knowing how long had passed, Lin Li gradually regained his consciousness. He felt something wet tickling his face as if a cool and slippery little thing was sliding on his cheek. Images flashed across Lin Li’s mind. Thinking of where he was now, Lin Li suddenly sat up in shock.

This was the Haiga Mountain Range—the valley of the baby Elemental Wyrm! How could he faint here? Not to mention any magical beast, even a random wild beast could eat him up!

Lin Li still remembered how he had fainted. He couldn’t care about anything else, and checked his body’s condition first. He wanted to know if he had already fallen out of the Legendary-realm since all his mana had been absorbed by the baby Elemental Wyrm.

Lin Li was overjoyed to realize that not only was he still a level-21 Legendary-mage, all of his mana that had been absorbed by the baby Elemental Wyrm had recovered.

While Lin Li was thinking about this, he suddenly felt an itchy sensation on his arm. He turned around, and realized that a petite little thing was staring at him with a pair of large innocent eyes.

Lin Li thought, Damn it! Isn’t this that baby Elemental Wyrm from the halo? What’s the situation now? 

He couldn’t believe his eyes. This palm-sized little thing was very similar in appearance to the Elemental Wyrm’s projected avatar. Obviously, the baby Elemental Wyrm in the halo had been successfully awakened.

 However, didn’t it have the projected avatar’s memories already? Why would it wiggle its tail and lick Lin Li’s arm like a pet now? Lin Li couldn’t figure out what had happened to this baby Elemental Wyrm during the period that he had fainted. However, judging from the situation now, this baby Elemental Wyrm was evidently very reliant on Lin Li, just like how kittens and puppies relied on their masters.

Lin Li felt as if he had seen light at the end of the tunnel. Today should be his lucky day instead. All his efforts weren’t in vain, and he hadn’t endured the pain from the Heart-piercing Potion for nothing.

That baby Elemental Wyrm seemed to be frightened by Lin Li’s abrupt movement, and moved back a little. It seemed reluctant to part with Lin Li, but was too afraid to get close to him. It could only look at Lin Li with pitiful eyes, not behaving like a legendary Elemental Wyrm at all. Compared to that fierce and flaming projected avatar, this baby Elemental Wyrm was totally different.

Lin Li hooked his fingers, signaling the baby Elemental Wyrm to come towards him. Given the baby Elemental Wyrm’s intelligence that was much higher than that of kittens and puppies, it immediately understood what Lin Li meant and yelped happily. Flapping its colorful wings joyfully, it landed on Lin Li’s shoulder.

Lin Li was very happy now as well. Though it just hatched, this baby Elemental Wyrm could grow up to become an Elemental Wyrm as powerful as the Dragon of Dream! After all, the Dragon of Dream possessed the four elements’ Rules and endless mana. It was no doubt the king of all prehistoric Wyrms.

Although it would take an extremely long time for this baby Elemental Wyrm to grow into something like the Dragon of Dream, Lin Li believed that it would bring more benefits to him than just being a fighter.

Elemental Wyrms possessed the four elements’ Rules innately. The Dragon of Dream had taken possession of the four elements’ Rules and didn’t allow any other powerhouses to touch them. This baby Elemental Wyrm might not be very strong now, but its understanding of the four elements’ Rules wouldn’t decrease with the increase in levels given its innate talent to grasp the elemental Rules.

As a Legendary-mage, Lin Li aspired to understand the Rule Power of this world. Although this baby Elemental Wyrm couldn’t be his helper in battles, it was extremely likely to provide important hints to help him understand the four elements’ Rules.

“Little thing, I’ve suffered so much because of you,” said Lin Li as he carried the baby Elemental Wyrm from his shoulder and examined this legendary little creature closely.

The baby Elemental Wyrm let Lin Li carry it by the wings. Dangling its thin limbs, it looked at Lin Li with innocent eyes.

“You’ll stay with me from now on whether you like it or not. Speaking of this, let me give you a name first. Should I call you Kitty or Doggy… Damn it! Why is your expression like this? I’m calling you that for your own good! The more lowly the name, the easier it is to take care of you…” Lin Li wasn’t an expert in naming, and couldn’t be bothered to think of any nice names for it. Seeing that there were white spots on the baby Elemental Wyrm’s tail, he said, “How about Xiao Hua1?”

The baby Elemental Wyrm wasn’t too bothered by how it was called; knowing that Lin Li was calling it with much affection was enough to make it happy.

Lin Li put the baby Elemental Wyrm back on his shoulder, and flicked the dust off his clothes. Although his trip was totally worth it after obtaining this baby Elemental Wyrm, he still didn’t know if the battle outside the valley had ended, and so he prepared to leave this valley.

However, seeing that Lin Li was walking towards the exit of the valley, the baby Elemental Wyrm got anxious, and suddenly flew away from Lin Li’s shoulder towards its birthplace while yelping continuously.

 Lin Li was confused at first, but he saw the baby Elemental Wyrm circling around its birthplace as if yearning for something. He then realized that this was the place that bred this baby Elemental Wyrm. Although he didn’t know the relationship between Xiao Hua and the Dragon of Dream, it was definitely not an ordinary pet given its status as an Elemental Wyrm. There might be something peculiar at the birthplace of this baby Elemental Wyrm.

Nobody would think that they had gained too much. Although Lin Li already had this baby Elemental Wyrm, he was still very excited by Xiao Hua’s reaction. What treasure was hidden in its birthplace?

The baby Elemental Wyrm flew around its birthplace aimlessly like a headless fly, not knowing what it was looking for. Soon, it lost its patience, and started to bombard the area with magic directly.

Lin Li was stunned by what he saw. The Elemental Wyrms lived up to its title of being the king of prehistoric Wyrms. Xiao Hua was just a newborn, yet it could release magic below level-10 instantaneously. How powerful would it be when it grew up?

After a period of bombardment, the last piece of green finally disappeared from the valley. The whole valley turned into a mess because of the magic. Xiao Hua flew towards one of the valley walls and yelped happily at Lin Li.

 Lin Li realized that there was a dark crack in that smooth valley wall only after walking close to it. The crack was very narrow, and only allowed one person to go in. Who knew where it led to.

Upon seeing Lin Li come closer, Xiao Hua flew into the crack, popped its head out, and yelped at Lin Li.

Lin Li knew that Xiao Hua was signaling for him to follow. Thinking that this little creature wouldn’t harm him, Lin Li followed Xiao Hua to see what was hidden in the crack for it to have such a big reaction.

Luckily, Xiao Hua was only palm-sized. If it had been any other prehistoric Wyrm, it would have bombed the entire valley’s wall. Lin Li followed Xiao Hua into the crack. It was pitch-dark inside, but Xiao Hua’s body radiated a soft magic flow like a floating torch.

If this baby Elemental Wyrm wanted to harm Lin Li, it could have killed him with a single blow back when he was unconscious. Although the baby Elemental Wyrm was a newborn, its level-10 magic could easily kill off a defenseless mage. Lin Li wasn’t worried that Xiao Hua would harm him, but a place that could attract a baby Elemental Wyrm wouldn’t necessarily be totally danger-free.

It was always better to be cautious. Lin Li didn’t ignite the place directly with magic, but examined the walls of the crack carefully with the light from the baby Elemental Wyrm’s body. Seeing that there were no signs of human excavation, Lin Li was more cautious of what lay in the crack.

It was impossible that human treasures could attract a baby Elemental Wyrm. Although legends said that Wyrms liked shiny objects, how could something like an Elemental Wyrm have such lowly preferences? Thus, it was very likely that some precious herb or something grew in this crack. This brought another problem: there were always powerful guardians beside natural treasures.

The more valuable the treasure was, the more powerful its guardian would be. How could some ordinary treasure attract an Elemental Wyrm? Of course, Lin Li wouldn’t give up this opportunity no matter how much danger he would face. He was just much more cautious than before.
