Chapter 1708 Fighting Long Wu Qing "Hey, stop messing around and fight me seriously. You don't have the leisure to hold back against me. Just come at me with your full strength." Long Wu Qing said to him with a disappointed frown on her face. This was the first time she faced an opponent who didn't immediately go all out against her. It was a weird feeling being on the receiving end since she would often be the one to hold back. "Sorry, it's a bad habit of mine to slowly ramp things up as I get used to my opponent's strength." Yuan apologized. He was used to slowly increasing his strength to match his opponent so he wouldn't end the fight too quickly. However, Long Wu Qing was an opponent who could easily fight someone several realms above her own strength, just like Yuan. "That said… I can also say the same for you." Yuan said, and his aura suddenly skyrocketed. He entered his dragon transformation and abruptly unleashed Heaven Splitting Sword Strike on Long Wu Qing, instantly engulfing her body. "..." However, Long Wu Qing didn't try to escape from his strike and stood still until the very end. Once Heaven Splitting Sword Strike ended, Yuan could see that one of the three barriers around Long Wu Qing was heavily cracked. "Hm. You're right. I should probably heed my own advice. As an apology, I'll give you one of my lives." Long Wu Qing swung her arm, destroying the cracked barrier. "You really didn't need to do that." "Well, it's done now, so there's no point lingering on it." Long Wu Qing's aura suddenly intensified and began surging toward the clouds. Not only did she release her full presence, but she also transformed, causing iridescent, rainbow-colored scales to appear across her body, shimmering with powerful and otherworldly energy. "Allow me to introduce myself again. I am Long Wu Qing, a Sublime Elemental Dragon, the eldest of the Dragon God's descendants." "I am Yuan, a human." After their greeting, Yuan and Long Wu Qing clashed with each other, their collusions sending powerful shockwaves in every direction. If the Dragon God hadn't covered the Endless Arena with a barrier to prevent their destruction from spreading too far, the nearby beings would've been affected by the shockwaves of their energy clashing. Although their cultivation was only at the Perfect Chaotic Master, their prowess far exceeded their cultivation by several realms. In reality, they were displaying the strength of a Perfect Chaotic King, a power comparable to the Divine Ancestor Realm in human cultivation. [Nine Supreme Swords!] "Nine Dragons Purgatory!" [Immortal Rending Sword Strike!] "Tyrant's Grand Sunder!" Yuan and Long Wu Qing continued exchanging techniques for several hours without pause, each move met with equal skill and power, with neither gaining an advantage over the other. The onlookers were absolutely gobsmacked by the spectacle. None of them had ever seen Long Wu Qing locked in a stalemate before, much less struggling to overpower her opponent. However, Yuan and Long Wu Qing suddenly stopped moving after half a day of fighting. "Hey, what do you think?" Long Wu Qing asked him with a suggestive smile on her face. "I think neither of us will be able to truly go all out because we don't want to kill each other." "That's obvious. I'm asking what you think about tossing that rule out of the window and we fight each other to the death—without actually fighting to the death?" "I don't mind," he said. "Then…" Long Wu Qing removed the barriers around her and transformed again, entering her true dragon form—an iridescent-colored dragon with six beautiful wings on her back. To match her increased size, Yuan activated God of War's Astral Arts—enhancing its prowess with chaotic essence. "This is more like it! Hahaha!" Long Wu Qing laughed out loud as they resumed their fight. However, Yuan was not done yet, and he retrieved Dragon God's Vengeance, wielding it in his left hand while using Number One Under Heaven in his right. Long Wu Qing narrowed her eyes at the Dragon God's Vengeance, her instincts sensing something unpleasant about it. Yuan's eyes flickered viciously, and he suddenly lunged the Dragon God's Vengeance at Long Wu Qing. Long Wu Qing's instincts warned her not to touch the spear, so she avoided it. Not giving her any time to breathe, Yuan attacked with Number One Under Heaven next. Long Wu Qing used her claws to block the strike, but even with her durable scales, Yuan was able to leave behind somewhat deep scratches on them. Unfortunately, that was the extent of the damage he could inflict on her, even with Enhanced Sword Aura. As the fight continued, Long Wu Qing began pushing Yuan back slowly but surely. If he hadn't received a boost in power from the Dragon God Festival, he wouldn't have been able to last more than ten minutes against Long Wu Qing. Suddenly, Yuan's eyes flickered. [Dragon's Gaze!] However, he didn't stop there and also used Immortal Monarch's Dominion at the same time. "Halt!" Although Yuan's efforts didn't stop Long Wu Qing for even a second, they weren't in vain. He managed to make her flinch, distracting her for a split second. In that brief moment, he seized the opportunity and controlled the Dragon God's Vengeance to strike her from behind. The Dragon God's Vengeance barely penetrated her scales and drew a drop of blood from her. Long Wu Qing instantly felt something had changed within her, but she wasn't sure what. "What did you do just now?" she inquired. "It's nothing much. I just sealed your bloodline," he answered truthfully. "Oh, I see." Long Wu Qing's bland response caused Yuan to raise an eyebrow. "That's all you have to say?" Long Wu Qing chuckled and said, "Do you even know anything about my bloodline? It only helps my training, allowing me to master all elements with ease. Even if you seal it, it won't have any effect on my ability to fight, as my prowess does not come from my bloodline." "Seriously…?" Yuan was dumbfounded by this revelation.
