Chapter 1688  Dragon God Festival Details

Long Yejun and the others looked at Long Wu Qing with nervous gazes, seemingly waiting for her reaction. Nobody has ever dared to ask her to suppress her presence since she killed the last one who did.

In the Primal Expanse, displaying oneʼs 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 Qingʼs 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, ”Thatʼs 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, sheʼd managed to somewhat replicate the meat skewersʼ flavor.

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

”Sorry, but thatʼs 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 wonʼt be returning.”

”...”

Long Wu Qing fell silent again.

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

ʼI canʼt believe it! That tyrant is actually have a peaceful meal with everyone!ʼ 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.

ʼAs expected of Brother Yuan… If anyone can tame that monster, itʼs him!ʼ he glared at Yuan with a profound gaze.

Yuanʼs spine shivered at Long Yejunʼs gaze.

ʼWhat is this ominous feeling?ʼ 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 appetite was, Yuan wouldnʼt 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 appetite was, Yuan wouldnʼt eat bones.

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

”We greet the almighty Dragon God!” The beings there respectfully greeted upon noticing him.

The Dragon God 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 yearʼs Dragon God Festival.”

The entire Divine Sanctuary became dead silent without a single entity making a sound.

”This yearʼs Dragon God Festival will consist of three separate trials, each requiring the completion of the previous to participate.”

”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 participate, you will not be able to forfeit. In other words, half of the participants will die!”

The first trial left everyone speechless. While death was not uncommon during the Dragon God Festival, with many perishing 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 participants.

ʼWhy did the Dragon God make such a trial?ʼ Long Yejun wondered, his gaze subconsciously shifting toward Yuan.

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

Although the atmosphere remained quiet, a significant portion of the participants had already made the decision to skip this yearʼs Dragon God 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 God 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 participate 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 pass the second trial.”

”The Dragon Godʼs blood?!” Countless beings exclaimed in a shocked voice after hearing the details of the second trial.

Even if it wasnʼt his Blood Essence, the Dragon Godʼs 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.

ʼWe only need to pass the first trial to absorb the Dragon Godʼs blood in the second? Even if we only manage to absorb a drop of his blood in the second trial, itʼs completely worth it!ʼ

Those who had already decided to skip this yearʼs Dragon God Festival immediately had a change of heart. They have decided to participate even if they had to risk their lives, including those with a lower cultivation.

ʼWhy is the Dragon God being so generous for this yearʼs Dragon God Festival…? No… this is a little too generous. I doubt heʼd really let so many people absorb his blood with so little risks.ʼ Long Yejun and the Seven Dragon Monarchs stared at the Dragon God with suspicious faces.

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

ʼI knew it!ʼ Long Yejun cried inwardly after the Dragon God proved his worries to be correct so quickly.
