The '''Ethereal serpent''' is a golden Asian dragon, the first of its kind to appear in the series. Lacking the gracious wisdom of real life ''Lung'' and ''Ryu'', there isn't much to distinguish it from its European styled contemporaries aside from its slender body and perpetual levitation. In other words, [[Xenlon|keep looking]] if you expect your wish to be granted.

The ethereal serpent originates in this game, and can be fought at the [[Tower of Transcendence]], as well as on the overworld map between [[Mur]] and [[Jipang]] and in the dense forest continent where [[Erdrick]] might find an [[Yggdrasil leaf]]. Later on, variants of the [[Dragon family|dragon]] are encountered, including the divine dragon, [[Xenlon]].

The ethereal serpent, translated in {{GBC}} releases ask SkyDragon, is a [[teleportal]] boss enemy of the [[Dragon family]] at the bottom of the Gate of Wisdom. The ethereal serpent's boss floor design is a reference to the [[Tower of Transcendence]] and the [[Fifer's Spire]], two dungeons in the {{Dragon Quest III}} that utilize tight-rope puzzles like the later Gate of Wisdom. Of note, the first location where ethereal serpents can fought in that game is at the Tower of Transcendence. Ethereal serpents can be synthesized by breeding a member of the [[Dragon family]] with a [[Firebird]]. Of note, the ethereal serpent is necessary for synthesizing it's more powerful color variant, [[Xenlon]].
