Chapter 1688  Dragon G.o.d Festival Details

Long Yejun and the others looked at Long Wu Qing with nervous gazes, seemingly waiting for her reaction. n.o.body has ever dared to ask her to suppress her presence since she killed the last one who did.

In the Primal Expanse, displaying one"s presence was a way of flaunting their status and prowess. The more powerful the presence, the better. To be told to stop, even if it was a reasonable request, could be interpreted as disrespect. It was akin to telling a wealthy man to stop showing off their jewelry in public because they were reflecting the sunlight and bothering those around him.

"…"

After a long moment of silence, Long Wu Qing"s tyrannical presence unexpectedly began to weaken until it was barely noticeable. Her oddly obedient behavior greatly shocked everyone there, with some even wondering if she was truly the feared Unrivaled Tyrant.

"There. You happy now, little human?" Long Wu Qing glared at Yuan.

He nodded and said, "That"s perfect. Let me show you how to use the seasoning."

After teaching her the basics, Long Wu Qing began testing other combinations on her own. Sometime later, she"d managed to somewhat replicate the meat skewers" flavor.

"Hey, do you have any more seasoning? This isn"t enough to recreate the taste of those skewers you gave me," she said.

"Sorry, but that"s all I have right now."

"When can you get more?" she inquired.

"When I return to the human world, but once I do that… I won"t be returning."

"..."

Long Wu Qing fell silent again.

"What a pity," she muttered a moment later and continued to eat in silence.

"I can"t believe it! That tyrant is actually have a peaceful meal with everyone!" Long Yejun swallowed nervously, feeling like he was living a dream.

When he pinched himself and sensed pain, Long Yejun nearly cried tears of joy.

"As expected of Brother Yuan… If anyone can tame that monster, it"s him!" he glared at Yuan with a profound gaze.

Yuan"s spine s.h.i.+vered at Long Yejun"s gaze.

"What is this ominous feeling?" he wondered inwardly.

For the next few days, Yuan and the others continued to feast until all of the food was devoured, leaving not even the bones. Of course, it was the beasts who consumed all of the bones. As big as his appet.i.te was, Yuan wouldn"t eat bones.

For the next few days, Yuan and the others continued to feast until all of the food was devoured, leaving not even the bones. Of course, it was the beasts who consumed all of the bones. As big as his appet.i.te was, Yuan wouldn"t eat bones.

Shortly after they finished eating, a powerful presence suddenly appeared in the Endless Arena, alerting everyone there.

"We greet the almighty Dragon G.o.d!" The beings there respectfully greeted upon noticing him.

The Dragon G.o.d remained silent.

A few moments later, he opened his mouth and spoke, his voice resounding throughout the entire Divine Dragon Sanctuary.

"Heed my words. I will be announcing the details for this year"s Dragon G.o.d Festival."

The entire Divine Sanctuary became dead silent without a single ent.i.ty making a sound.

"This year"s Dragon G.o.d Festival will consist of three separate trials, each requiring the completion of the previous to partic.i.p.ate."

"The first trial shall be a one-on-one deathmatch. In order to make things as fair as possible, your cultivation must be suppressed to Perfect Chaotic Commander. Those of you with a lower cultivation will have to deal with the difference if your opponent has a higher cultivation. Once you partic.i.p.ate, you will not be able to forfeit. In other words, half of the partic.i.p.ants will die!"

The first trial left everyone speechless. While death was not uncommon during the Dragon G.o.d Festival, with many peris.h.i.+ng in each event, this trial had been the deadliest to date—and it was only the first of three trials. The sheer brutality of it shocked even the most seasoned partic.i.p.ants.

"Why did the Dragon G.o.d make such a trial?" Long Yejun wondered, his gaze subconsciously s.h.i.+fting toward Yuan.

Yuan was only a Perfect Chaotic Master. If he were unlucky with his opponent, he"d need to fight a Perfect Chaotic Commander in a worst-case scenario.

Although the atmosphere remained quiet, a significant portion of the partic.i.p.ants had already made the decision to skip this year"s Dragon G.o.d Festival. Whether it was due to insufficient cultivation or simply an unwillingness to risk their lives, many chose to withdraw rather than face the deadly trial ahead.

The Dragon G.o.d continued to speak after giving the listeners a moment to think about the first trial.

"Those of you who survived the deathmatch will be qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the second trial. In the second trial, you will be given a Blood Reservoir containing my blood. If you are able to absorb and refine more than 90 percent of my blood within 30 days, you will pa.s.s the second trial."

"The Dragon G.o.d"s blood?!" Countless beings exclaimed in a shocked voice after hearing the details of the second trial.

Even if it wasn"t his Blood Essence, the Dragon G.o.d"s blood was an invaluable treasure, capable of strengthening bloodlines and even transforming a mere snake into a true dragon. Most beings present would willingly start a war over such a precious resource, let alone risk everything in a one-on-one deathmatch.

"We only need to pa.s.s the first trial to absorb the Dragon G.o.d"s blood in the second? Even if we only manage to absorb a drop of his blood in the second trial, it"s completely worth it!"

Those who had already decided to skip this year"s Dragon G.o.d Festival immediately had a change of heart. They have decided to partic.i.p.ate even if they had to risk their lives, including those with a lower cultivation.

"Why is the Dragon G.o.d being so generous for this year"s Dragon G.o.d Festival…? No… this is a little too generous. I doubt he"d really let so many people absorb his blood with so little risks." Long Yejun and the Seven Dragon Monarchs stared at the Dragon G.o.d with suspicious faces.

The Dragon G.o.d suddenly laughed, "You lot sure seem eager to absorb my blood. However, did you think it would be so simple?"

"I knew it!" Long Yejun cried inwardly after the Dragon G.o.d proved his worries to be correct so quickly.
