The Combo does not work.
The effect from Undying evil only lasts until you sacrifice the Dragon for the first time. The Dragon will enter the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter due to the triggered effect of the undying ability he had when he left but WITHOUT undying ability since he enters as a new object.
This is similar to the Combos with Cauldron of souls. You Need to untap/tap them anew each time the creature re-entered the battlefield to grant persist again.

This works with Mikaeus, the Unhallowed which grants undying as a "static" ability.

However it comes to play recognized as the original creature i targeted until end of turn. Then remove it's counter and it would go yo grave with undying again would it not? Since i removed its +1+1 counter.

He is right, we've gone over this with persist and that Cauldron. Same thing with Undying.

If a Llanowar Elf is in play. You play Giant Growth on it, making it get +3/+3 and it is now a 4/4. Someone terrors it (I don't care who). You bring it back into play with Zombify/Resurrection/Unburial Rites. How big is the Elf? It is a 1/1.

Giant Growth, like Undying Evil, says "until the end of turn". This effect is still nullified if the creature leaves the battlefield. Yes, even blinking a creature will get rid of this stuff, so beware.
Now PHASING.... luckily there is no card that currently exists that would make us have to deal with such a conundrum (since phasing creatures don't technically leave the battlefield, but they aren't technically on it either.)
