Chapter 1300: Chapter 1302: Dragon God's Blessing Chapter 1300: Chapter 1302: Dragon God's Blessing Within the Dragon God Hall, several Giant Dragon Priests all looked at Song Jian, and it was quite evident that their attitude towards him had become much friendlier.
“Song Jian, I am Giant Dragon Priest Kanwadia; Kamata is of my kin. I'm delighted that you've joined the Dragon Clan!” said the Giant Dragon Priest with two horns on his head, his face brimming with a smile.
Kanwadia was also a Black Dragon, but he was over three thousand years old, a true Giant Dragon possessing the strength of the Legendary Realm.
Previously, it was Black Dragon Kamata who followed him into the Dragon God Altar and received the Dragon God's Blessing, activating the power of the Dragon Bloodline inheritance.
“Song Jian, I am Giant Dragon Priest Aita. Are you interested in having a fight with me? Don't worry, I will suppress my strength to match your realm!” said a beautiful man with purple hair and wearing silver armor with a smile.
“Ignore him, Song Jian. Aita is a battle maniac. Every fight he's in is like battling a mortal enemy. Even in friendly sparring, he'll drag his opponent down with him…” A white-haired old man laughed heartily, “Although his strength is only above average among the Giant Dragon Priests, his combat power is definitely ranked first!”
“Welcome, Song Jian. I am Giant Dragon Priest Gel. Your bravery is comparable to the legendary heroes of ancient times!” the old man with white hair opened his arms and embraced Song Jian, then said, “By the way, what happened to Kamata? Is she injured? Why didn't I see her during the battle?”
The trial given to Song Jian by the Giant Dragon Priests had included the combat power of the newly advanced Black Dragon Kamata, and they had expected that with her help, killing a newly inducted Necromancer of the Legendary Realm should pose no problem. What the Giant Dragon Priests did not know was that beneath the hills and plains of the Dragon Bone Wasteland lurked an Evil Fire Phoenix.
“Oh, Kamata, she… she got drunk. Yes, that's it, drunk…” said Song Jian calmly to the Giant Dragon Priests.
In fact, Song Jian was somewhat flustered inside. Judging by Kamata's human-transformed appearance, she was really just a thirteen- or fourteen-year-old girl. Giving her alcohol and being found out by an elder of the same clan made Song Jian feel a bit embarrassed.
However, as long as a member of the Dragon Clan could transform, they were considered adults, although they would undergo second and third transformations as they aged.
Seeing the Giant Dragon Priests' surprised expressions, Song Jian sighed inwardly and summoned the soundly sleeping Kamata from his Pet Space.
The over ten-meter-long Black Dragon suddenly appeared in front of the Giant Dragon Priests, her body exuding a strong smell of alcohol, sleeping and drooling, with a strange smile hanging on her face.
On seeing the state of Black Dragon Kamata, the Giant Dragon Priests looked at each other in disbelief. Considering the physical constitution of the Dragon Clan, how much alcohol had she consumed to become so drunk that she was completely unconscious?
“Er, alright then, let her rest for a while. After all, she has just successfully advanced…” Gel said helplessly.
Song Jian gave an awkward smile and returned Black Dragon Kamata back to the Pet Space to rest, looking somewhat embarrassed at the Giant Dragon Priests.
“You don't need to feel embarrassed. In fact, for the Dragon Clan, who have such long lifespans, a few small hobbies are not a big deal, cough cough~” Gel gave Song Jian a glance and said with a smile, “Song Jian, you are now a member of the Dragon Clan, but there's still one final step to complete. That is to go to the Dragon God Altar and receive the Dragon God's Blessing. Only those of the Dragon Clan who have the Dragon God's Blessing are considered true members of the Dragon Clan!”
“Dragon God's Blessing? Isn't that something only those with the Dragon Bloodline can receive?” asked Song Jian, puzzled.
You should know, Song Jian had merely garnered recognition from a few Giant Dragon priests. In actuality, he was still an unequivocal human player. How could the Dragon God possibly bestow a blessing upon him?
“Of course, there is a difference between you and a true Giant Dragon, but since you've earned the recognition of the Dragon Clan, the Dragon God will also regard you as a member and grant you a blessing!” Gel said with a smile, “At the very least, it could increase your lifespan by several decades, or even a hundred years. Wouldn't that be great?”
Song Jian nodded. This was an unexpected joy. The most important thing was that he was a player, not an NPC in the game. If any disadvantageous events were to occur, he would receive a system prompt in advance, and based on that prompt, make the correct choices.
Following the white-haired Gel into the depths of the cave, a colossal altar over a thousand square meters in area and more than thirty meters high, appeared before Song Jian.
What was astonishing was that all the materials used to construct this altar were made of pristine bones as white as jade.
“Are, are all these bones from dragons?” Song Jian asked, his face full of amazement.
“These are the remains of the elite within the Dragon Clan. To be able to merge a part of one's body into the Dragon God Altar after death is the highest honor for the Dragon Clan!” Gel's eyes gleamed peculiarly, staring intently at the Dragon God Altar with an excited expression. It seemed he was eagerly anticipating that a bone from his own body might appear in the altar after his death.
Song Jian was somewhat speechless. He could never fully understand this kind of fanatical worship and belief, but it was a tradition of the Dragon Clan, not something he could casually comment on.
Ascending the steps step by step, Song Jian climbed onto the Dragon God Altar, while the Giant Dragon Mage Gel respectfully stood below the altar. This altar was such that members of the Dragon Clan had only three opportunities in their lifetimes to ascend, each time only when their strength had peaked and they needed to break through in their bloodline lineage.
Gel had already ascended three times, and likely, he would never have another opportunity to climb this altar in his lifetime. His gaze followed Song Jian's back, his eyes reflecting a complex mix of emotions.
As soon as Song Jian set foot on the Dragon God Altar, unsurprisingly, he immediately received a system prompt.
System: You have discovered a special area, the Dragon God Altar. Only members of the Dragon Clan with a reputation of 'Respected' or higher are permitted entry, or else you will be ruthlessly hunted by the Dragon Clan!
System: You have stepped onto the Dragon God Altar. Please offer an item at minimum of gold quality. The Dragon God will grant you a corresponding blessing. The higher the quality of the offered item, the stronger the Dragon God's Blessing effect you will receive!
Song Jian was stunned and looked up incredulously at the Dragon God Altar.
“Eh, what's going on? Wasn't I supposed to come here and then receive the Dragon God's blessing? Why do I need to offer an item? Could there have been some mistake? Am I being discriminated against here?”
The Black Dragon pet didn't offer anything when it came here, and Song Jian, as the owner, would know if Kamata had any such treasures. Why did it become necessary for him to offer items when it was his turn?
“I, Song Jian, cannot accept this indignity!” Song Jian's face turned sour as he opened his inventory and began rummaging for items he didn't need, and of course, they had to be of high quality!
