Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler-Chapter 398: Dream God Palace

--- Chapter 395 ---

The next day.

After preparing themselves for the Dream God Planet, Yunlong and his companions confronted the Odd-Eyed Clan's Patriarch.

Arum Kai has lived with anxiety for the past week. Because of his idiotic and now crippled son, the Odd-Eyed Clan almost has a deep conflict with a group of Royal Elvens.

In the past, Arum Kai has covered for his son's misdemeanors several times. However, this time, his son really struck an iron plate.

Not only did Arum Kom offend a group of Royal Elvens, but he also didn't notice the power difference.

These Royal Elvens aren't weak.

One of them was enough to make Arum Kai nervous, that being Sieg a week ago. The sword-wielding elf exudes such a frightening aura despite not showing his cultivation level.

A week passed, and Arum Kai didn't dare to observe these Royal Elvens with his King's Guards. He knew doing that would be different than sending King's Guards to hell.

Sighing helplessly, Arum Kai remembered the deal he made with the current leader of the Elven.

The Dream God Trials are about to appear, which means the Eight Great Clans will send some people to use the 'Key.' and open it.

"I hope my decision is correct." Arum Kai poured himself a cup of wine to ease his mood and gazed into the distance.

"Oh, how casual of you, patriarch. Enjoying wine on this lovely evening?" A voice comes out of nowhere.

Still, Arum Kai recognized this voice immediately.

Cough!

Arum Kai panicked and choked on his wine, spitting it all over his expensive table.

"What's with that face? I won't do anything to your clan, Clan Head Arum Kai." Yunlong stood behind Arum Kai and smiled at this guy's bewilderment.

"We have buried the hatchet, after all. I heard your son will stay on the bed for the rest of his life. Quite a tough love you had there." He added casually.

Arum Kai's emotions are in turmoil. As much as he loathed this royal elven, his son really deserved a good beating.

That's why Arum Kai beat his son physically to stay in bed for a few years and temper his spoiled personality.

Arum Kai wiped wine from his mouth and responded, "I just hope my son learned something from this, Lord Yun."

Hearing Arum Kai call him 'Lord Yun' makes Yunlong admire this patriarch even more. He actually resigned, unlike those scheming evil fathers in the cultivation world.

Yunlong shook his head and returned, 'Well, let's go straight to the point."

"We are ready for the Dream God Trials."

"Give me the key."

"Wait a moment." Arum Kai nodded and sighed.

The Odd-Eyed Clan's Patriarch let out disturbance energy as the third eye on his forehead opened. The third eye shone with a dreamy color, slowly revealing a tree branch.

The tree branch is around 30 centimeters and 5 centimeters wide, entirely black, like charred by something. It's shaped like a 'Y' and exudes an otherworldly presence.

Yunlong felt Rukh's Will inside his body warm up slightly. He frowned but didn't say anything.

"Here is the key." Arum Kai handed the tree branch to Yunlong.

[Name: Dream God Trials' Key]

[Type: Unsealing Key(Incomplete)]

[Grade: Unknown]

[Description: One of the eight secret keys needed to open the Dream God Trials. It possessed a deep history and was 'unfortunately' forgotten due to the corrosion of time. Using it will teleport everyone within a meter radius to the Dream God's Palace]

[Activation Chant: Garnt!]

'Oh?' Yunlong used Neo to scan the key.

He grabbed the key and felt the smooth sensation, tracing it with his finger.

He could feel the trace of divine power inside this branch. It was weak but definitely made by God-level individuals.

Unfortunately, since the energy within it is weak, Yunlong couldn't discern the power of the person who made this key.

Arum Kai peeked at Arum Nok(Kang Tei) behind Yunlong and felt assured, knowing his clan's members have such a powerful supporter.

With this, Odd-Eyed Clan will be the biggest winner in the Dream God Trials of this period.

"Lord Yun, although you and your people are strong. I strongly advise you not to look down on other Great Clans. Just like our Odd-Eyed Clan, they are the descendants of Gods after all." Arum Kai warned Yunlong.

"Especially the Seven-Headed Serpent Clan."

"Okay." Yunlong returned nonchalantly.

"Then, see you later, Clan Head Kai."

"Garnt!"

Chanting the activation word, Yunlong covered Arum Kai with the God of Miracle's authority, preventing the teleportation to take the Odd-Eyed Clan's Head along to the Dream God's Palace.

Swoosh!

Yunlong and five others disappeared from Arum Kai's vision.

Arum Kai blinked his eyes in surprise.

"How did he..."

"I haven't even told him about the activation chant..."

"And I wasn't affected by the key's teleportation power." Arum Kai was in disbelief.

"How could someone possess such a strong rule over Spatial Element."

"Unless..." Arum Kai's red skin paled upon the thought of it.

"Fuck, that son of mine actually offended a deity!"

"Huu... I was lucky he didn't press further about the offense."

Arum Kai's body trembled as he murmured, "M-Maybe I should beat my son more, making sure he wouldn't make the same mistake."

In the far corner of the Odd-Eyed Clan's House, Arum Kom shivered on his bed. He was still dreaming about having a new wife when reality hit him like a truck, shivering instinctively.

Oh boy, he would never guess what's coming after him.

...

Yunlong felt an unknown force pull him to another realm. He could destroy it with ease but let it away out of curiosity.

Soon, they arrived at a large field of flowers. Besides Yunlong's group, which just appeared, there are seven more groups in this area.

"Elf?" The seven groups were surprised by Yunlong's appearance.

"The Odd-Eyed Clan actually sends elves to the Dream God Trials."

"Arum Kai, that fellow... How could he be so lucky to strike a deal with a pure elven?" Someone uttered in envy.

Yunlong ignored these gazes and observed the surroundings instead. His divine sense spread over the area, finding them in a confined space far from the Dream God Planet.

The key actually sent them to another planet.

Yunlong thought it would be a genuine secret realm. He was 'slightly' disappointed.

"Yunlong-sama." Ren Shuyi stepped forward and presented a memory crystal to Yunlong. "Here is the information about the other Great Clans."

"Good job." Yunlong nodded, checking the crystal.

A brief but detailed information entered Yunlong's head.

His lips curved and formed a smile.

In the Dream God Planet, Eight Great Clans reside. They are the overlords and hold near absolute authority over the minority and monopolize the star fields.

Those clans are also descendants of Gods.

Odd-Eyed Clan.

Star Heart Clan.

Heaven Beetle Clan.

Thunder Peacock Clan.

Titan Crocodile Clan.

Sky Born Clan.

Eternal Oceanid Clan.

And lastly, the Seven-Headed Serpent Clan.

Out of the eight, the Seven-Headed Serpent Clan has the best purity in terms of bloodline, making it the strongest clan in the Dream God Planet.

However, little snakes with a bunch of heads couldn't possibly Divine Dragon, no?

Yunlong snorted indifferently when the members of the Seven-Headed Serpent Clan tried to probe something from his body.

"I felt such a massive vitality from that handsome elf." A beautiful woman in black licked her lips. One could see a seven-headed serpent tattoo on her neck.

"And it's not that of nature... It's much more like a dragon!"

Yunlong waved his hand and caused the beautiful woman to fall on her knee, groaning in pain. "I don't like your gaze. Keep it down, or I'll kill you..." He said emotionlessly.

He moved his gaze to the center of the flower field and sensed a pulse of energy coming out.

An image of a chubby appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Welcome to the Dream God Trials."

"I'm the Trials' Spirit."

"And I'll be the monitor of your performance."
