Elemental Transformation.
It was one of the most mysterious powers known to Immortal Practitioners — a state only the most gifted and enlightened could achieve.
When an immortal practitioner with a Fire Affinity reached the Divine Seeker Stage, their entire body could transform into pure elemental essence — flame, in that case. They could become intangible, avoiding physical damage entirely. They would no longer be bound by mortal flesh, existing instead as a living embodiment of their element.
But not everyone could reach such a level.
Elemental Transformation was among the most difficult arts to master. Only those with unmatched control over their spiritual essence — and absolute harmony with their element — could achieve it.
And those who possessed multiple affinities could, in theory, shift between several elemental forms. Yet even then, mastering just one form was a near-impossible feat.
Which made the Mist Dragon before them nothing short of a genius.
