Chapter 934: Chapter 935: Offend If We Must, What’s There to Fear?

Thus, the dragon and the Dragon God Core Fragment once again sensed each other’s presence. 10 seconds later, the Dragon God Core Fragment in front of him disappeared, appearing within Chu You’s backpack space and occupying six slots.

After checking it over, Chu You was very satisfied. The Dragon God Core Fragment itself contained 100,000 units of The Power of Dragon Language, and there was no need to take it out to absorb.

The fully charged dragon swept the area clean and continued to fly deeper.

Here, the Black Holes sometimes did not appear on the ground; they were completely abstract and irregular existences. Sometimes they would materialize in mid-air, the space on the side appearing to cave in abstractly, followed by a massive suckling force, pulling everything around into it.

Guided by its uncanny inner warning system, the dragon avoided crisis after crisis. As for the Dragon Grudge Monster, Chu You chose flight over fight; he believed that killing them was only worthwhile if he encountered the Dragon God Core Fragment. Otherwise, he would opt to flee. Although killing Dragon Grudge Monsters could yield a great amount of experience, the Curse of the Dragon God would significantly increase.

To Chu You, this place was filled with wealth and treasures; mere experience points couldn’t lure him.

Having been here for so long, Chu You had already deduced that there must be a core area, but the map was too big, the environment too dark and dangerous, and the effect of The Eye of Demon Emperor severely limited; thus, this excursion was mainly for exploration, to chart the map, and to gather the needed quantity of Dragon Crystal Stones.

Dragon God Core Fragments were apparently very rare; even now, Chu You had not encountered this wondrous item again.

However, the amount of Dragon Crystal Stones kept increasing, almost reaching a collection of 100 stones.

Just then, the dragon noticed the outline of a tall spire in the distance!

The spire seemed massive, likely thousands of meters tall, but its form was still blurred and indistinct.

With both curiosity and caution, the dragon flew towards it.

As it drew closer, an inexplicable sense of terror began to emerge. The source of this feeling was none other than the dark silhouette of the spire in the distance.

Could it be there was a powerful presence within the tower?!

The feeling of alertness in his heart intensified as Chu You inched closer. If he discovered Dragon Crystal Stones along the way, the dragon would stop to collect them, vigilantly surveying the surroundings, with even Yu Guang keeping watch on the dark spire afar.

Approaching the dark spire closer and closer, as it became clearer, a trace of peculiarity surfaced in his vision.

Because, no matter how he looked at it, the tower seemed like an infinitely magnified Dragon Crystal Stone!

If his guess was right, then damn, that was a huge find!!

At that moment, one-fifth of his health vanished without explanation, and at the same time a grey light sphere, like a meteor, appeared out of nowhere in the sky.

After dodging the meteor, the dragon began to use The Power of Dragon Language to transform vitality and absorbed more of The Power of Dragon Language.

Chu You had figured out the pattern behind the unexplained loss of health: it was that every 8-10 minutes, this phenomenon would occur again!

The dragon, fully charged, soared off again...

Wahaha, who could have imagined, who would have thought, that he would be gathering wealth in this form of a dragon.

When Chu You was not far from the towering spire, he could clearly see that it was indeed a Dragon Crystal Stone!

As for that terrifying presence, it came from a dragon inside the spire stone, its body facing upwards. The dragon was obscured by the crystal stone, its form indistinct, but it appeared to be even larger than Chu You’s own body, at an estimated length of over 800 meters.

Astonishingly massive!

Even from this perspective, the sight was awe-inspiring, highlighting his own insignificance.

Chu You felt no such insignificance; he now calmly approached, and soon was only 100 meters from the spire, its towering form even clearer and more imposing up close.

Seconds later, Chu You could fix his gaze on the spire’s Dragon Crystal Stone, which revealed its information.

The Awakened Dragon Crystal Stone of the Arrogant Dragon God!

Meaning, this massive spire-shaped Dragon Crystal Stone that reached a kilometer in height was in fact: The Awakened Dragon Crystal Stone of the Arrogant Dragon God!

Holy shit!

He had never heard of such a large raw material in his previous life!

But what was the deal with the real dragon inside the crystal stone?!

Wasn’t this place supposed to be the Dragon Tomb, so how could there be a living creature?!

Could it be that this massive Dragon Crystal Stone was its ’source’?!

Like the ancient powerful beings from the outer world that sealed their own bodies in a bid to extend their lives?!

The dragon could only lock on to the front Dragon Crystal Stone; it could not lock on to the dragon inside, so it was impossible to see its basic information—Chu You wasn’t even sure if it was dead or alive.

No matter, it was time to try and see if anything unexpected would happen in the process of absorption.

While remaining vigilant, the dragon’s breath began to collect, resonating with this segment of the Dragon Crystal Stone spire, which also released its essence, merging together with the dragon’s.

System: You have obtained The Awakened Dragon Crystal Stone of the Arrogant Dragon God ×6!

System: You have obtained The Awakened Dragon Crystal Stone of the Arrogant Dragon God ×4!

System: You have obtained The Awakened Dragon Crystal Stone of the Arrogant Dragon God ×5!

Chu You noticed that there was no progress bar for the gathering process; previous collections of Dragon Crystal Stones had a 10-second Reading Bar, after which the stone would disappear, but this time it was different. The gathering was continuous, and every 10 seconds he would get a prompt showing a portion of the stone had been collected.

Holy shit, who knows when he would be able to completely gather such a massively voluminous spire of Dragon Crystal Stone.

And at the same time... Wahahaha, jackpot, jackpot!!

He opened his backpack, focusing his gaze on the newly acquired variety of Dragon Crystal Stones.

(Special Holy Items) The Awakened Dragon Crystal Stone of the Arrogant Dragon God: Dragon Language Attribute: Creation!

It was apparent that the Awakened Dragon Crystal Stones were of a higher grade than the active ones, their name now in a deep purple color, a shade reserved for items within the Divine Artifact sequence.

To reiterate, the grade of Dragon Crystal Stones merely indicates the level of attributes contained, not the strength of the attributes themselves.

He closed his backpack; the collection was still ongoing, and every 10 seconds, he would obtain a few Dragon Crystal Stones.

At the same time, Chu You hadn’t noticed any change in size or any anomalies with the spire’s Dragon Crystal Stone despite the continuous collection—it remained unchanged.

Wahaha! If not now, when should I give it my all?

System: You have obtained 5 Arrogant Dragon God’s Awakened Dragon Crystal Stones!

System: ...

At that moment, meteors suddenly appeared in the sky and quickly plummeted down. Chu You sensed them immediately and halted the collection process, flicking his body sideways to evade the sneak attack. The grey sphere hit the Dragon Crystal Stone without causing an explosion, only producing a bit of mist, which quickly dissipated.

Then the dragon resumed the collection of the spire’s Dragon Crystal Stones.

In mere 10 seconds, he could obtain some Dragon Crystal Stones, which meant he could collect 6 times in a minute; taking the average of 5 per collection, he would acquire 30 Awakened-level Dragon Crystal Stones every minute.

Thus, when 10 minutes had passed, the dragon already had 288 Awakened Dragon Crystal Stones when suddenly, an unexpected change occurred!

Before his eyes, the surface of the Dragon Crystal Stone began to pulse with spatial fluctuations, but Chu You’s heart sensed no danger.

Subsequently, a huge dragon eye emerged following the spatial fluctuations. The eye was cold and Ruthless, its inner structures more complex than those of Chu You’s dragon form, seemingly complicated yet resonating with absolute order!

The Dragon Eye fixed its gaze on the dragon before it.

This gaze finally gave Chu You an ominous feeling.

"Enough!" A cold voice sounded directly in his mind, and the oppressive aura around him intensified.

After that, there was no follow-up, which made Chu You pause slightly as he had been expecting the other party to continue speaking.

Why is there no more to say?

The scene at that moment was a stare-down, eyes locked onto one another.

A few seconds later, the dragon’s tail swished gently a few times, almost as if trying to curry favor?!

Chu You found it quite amusing.

"Who are you?" Chu You mentally responded while continuing to wag his tail.

However, the other party remained silent, the enormous dragon eye still fixated on him.

"I have a mission to complete, may I collect for a few more minutes and then leave?"

"Hello?"

"If you don’t speak, then I’ll continue collecting."

"You dare!!"

The icy voice erupted once more, still filled with cold Ruthlessness and an air of undeniable arrogance and disdain, as though Chu You was nothing but an ant in its presence.

"Dare?" There’s nothing I wouldn’t dare!"

Stiffening his tail in defiance, Chu You’s heart surged with bravado, and he replied with contemptuous puff of breath.

"You!!"

After the other issued a furious ’you’, it fell silent again, continuing to stare intensely at Chu You and the dragon before it.

The dragon stared back at the eye, and so they remained locked in each other’s gaze.

seconds passed...

System: You have successfully collected 6 Arrogant Dragon God’s Awakened Dragon Crystal Stones!

"I will remember your scent, and the day I regain my freedom, I will seek you out first!" The voice had turned bone-chillingly cold.

"Seek me out? Do you know who my backer is? She is the Dragon Emperor, and I am her Forbidden Embroidery. Would you dare seek me out?"

The other seemed to fall into silence, not speaking again.

Collect, collect, collect. Chu You realized that at this moment, only collecting was the right path.

When 30 minutes had passed, having collected nearly 900 Awakened Dragon Crystal Stones, a system prompt arrived.

System: You have been tainted with too much of the Dragon Tomb’s essence. The effect of the Dragon God’s Curse on you has reached level 3! Warning! You are at risk of encountering severe danger at any moment.

Not only that, but another system prompt followed closely.

System: The Fourth Dragon Emperor Meslandis is undergoing forced revival.

Shit, seriously! The other party turned out to be a Dragon Emperor, a true Dragon Emperor!

Considering this, it seemed best to end this expedition here. Pushing any further might be dangerous, as even one tier of the Dragon Emperor’s recovered strength could be more than he could handle, and a level 3 Dragon God’s Curse could cause significant trouble!

The level 3 Dragon God’s Curse caused Chu You to feel restless and uneasy.

With that in mind, Chu You decisively stopped the collection process and used the teleportation spell to return home.

The rules upon entry, which had vanished an hour after arrival, allowed him to choose to return home at any moment.

Typically a 3-second countdown sufficed for a return home, but here it took 10 seconds to truly teleport back.

Regardless, this expedition was a grand success—Chu You had hit the jackpot!
