Long Chen's position was close to the center of the astrolabe, so he was also affected. He was pushed back by the crowd. From the reverence in everyone's eyes, it seemed that the power of the nine great clans was truly terrifying.
After the Nine Great Clans appeared, they were divided into three factions. Long Chen looked around and saw that the Five Element Alliance had the most people. There were more than six hundred people in total. As for the remaining warriors, there were about three hundred people each from the Wind Divine Bloodline and the Thunder Demon Bloodline. According to their characteristics, Long Chen could roughly distinguish which were from the Wind Divine Bloodline and which were from the Thunder Demon Bloodline.
The people in the Five Element Union had a very strong characteristic. The Five Element Union was the direct descendant of the legendary Five Emperors. The Battle Skills they cultivated were all biased towards their respective attributes. They were divided into five branches: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Each branch had many experts. Their combined strength was stronger than the Wind God and the Thunder Demon.
Long Chen discovered that the people of the Five Element Alliance had a very distinct characteristic. On their foreheads, there was a pattern of golden light, green wood, flame, water droplet, and yellow earth. This should be the unique mark of their race when they were born. This mark seemed to have quite a bit of power. It was likely that some powerful techniques needed this mark to be used.
After looking at the Five Element League, Long Chen's gaze landed on the Thunder Devil Clan. There were two clans here, and it was easy to distinguish them. The Thunder Devil Clan didn't have a symbol like the Five Element League, but it might be a rule. Among the Thunder Devil Clan, all the members of the Thunder Clan were tall and had a dense thunder aura, similar to Lei Zhen. As for the Devil Clan, their figures were very normal. They all wore black clothes, and their faces looked a bit paler than ordinary people. They also looked a lot more sinister.
As for the Wind God's bloodline, Long Chen was very careful. He had killed Feng Xuan before, and Feng Xuan seemed to have left an imprint on his body, so he did not dare to approach the Wind Clan, in case he was discovered. If he was discovered on this Star Plate, he would definitely die without a burial, and he would not even know where to run to.
As for the Wind God clan, Long Chen was very careful. He had killed Feng Xuan, and Feng Xuan seemed to have left a mark on him. Therefore, he didn't dare to approach the Wind God clan in case he was discovered. If he was discovered on the astrolabe, he would definitely die without a burial ground.
The Wind God clan didn't have any obvious differences. However, the Wind God clan's clothes were mostly the color of green bamboo. They looked simple and elegant. As for the so-called God Clan, they were all handsome men and beautiful women. Their clothes were mostly white and pure.
The overall strength of the Nine Great Clans was much higher than that of ordinary people. This was especially true for the God Clan and the Demon Clan. Although their population was small, each and every one of them was an elite. Whether it was their temperament or strength, they were far superior to ordinary warriors.
As for the current Long Chen, in terms of cultivation realms, he couldn't even compare to these ordinary warriors.
It could be seen that the competition for the magic treasures in the Archaic Cemetery was actually a competition between the Nine Great Clans. Among these eight thousand ordinary warriors, there must be many hidden dragons and crouching tigers. However, most of them would definitely be cannon fodder for the Nine Great Clans.
The real battle would definitely take place among the Nine Great Clans. The real treasures would be monopolized by them. Ordinary people wouldn't be qualified to get involved at all.
"The Nine Great Clans are really going all out this time. They've actually sent out so many people …"
"Yeah, how many chances do we have under the watchful eyes of these experts?"
"We can only go all out. If we don't kill enough people, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to even get out. How can we talk about obtaining the treasures and bringing glory to our ancestors?"
Looking at the appearance of the Nine Great Clans, many people clenched their teeth and prepared to hold on.
In their eyes, the reverence they had for the Nine Great Clans was the same as when Long Chen first went to the Wushu Sage Empire and saw the reverence the ordinary people had for the Wushu Alliance. This reverence was exchanged for the other party's bloody killing methods.
"This is a competition between the Nine Great Clans. I can't get close to the Wind Clan. I'll move to another place first."
Thinking of this, Long Chen was about to leave. Suddenly, someone stood beside him. Long Chen raised his head and looked. It was the fat man from before. Because of the crowd just now, Long Chen had already walked to his side unknowingly.
"Brother, are you going to the Archaic Cemetery alone? You're really bold."
The fat man looked at Long Chen in surprise. Compared to him, Long Chen's body was really too thin.
"Yeah."
Long Chen nodded and looked at the fat man carefully. If the fat man had evil intentions, he would definitely not continue to pester him.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. My name is Shao Yu. You can call me Fatty Yu. What about you?" The fat man said with some enthusiasm.
When a person spoke, it could be seen from his eyes whether he was sincere or not. Long Chen had this kind of ability to see through people. This fat man asked Long Chen this question purely because Long Chen had helped him just now.
"My name is Long Chen." Long Chen nodded and the coldness on his face relaxed.
Shao Yu chuckled. When he was about to talk about other things with Long Chen, the surroundings suddenly became quiet. It turned out that the Nine Great Clans in the center of the Astrolabe were talking. There were many people around. Seeing that everyone was looking in that direction, Long Chen also looked in that direction.
At that moment, among the three camps, many people walked to the forefront. Needless to say, Long Chen knew that these people were definitely the leaders of the three forces. They were existences that Long Chen could not touch at the moment.
Among the Five Elements Alliance, five elders appeared. They represented the Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth Clans respectively. Every one of them looked quite old. At the first level of the Earth Martial Arts Realm, he had a lifespan of more than a hundred years. Every level of the Earth Martial Arts Realm would increase his lifespan by five years. If he reached the ninth level of the Earth Martial Arts Realm, he would have a lifespan of more than five hundred or even six hundred years.
These five old men were like very ordinary old men. They did not have the slightest bit of power on their bodies, but it was precisely because of this that Long Chen knew how terrifying they were. The Earth Martial Arts Realm was about the control of power. The smaller the fluctuations on the body of a person, the more robust his strength was. These five old men had already reached the realm of returning to one's natural state. It could be seen how profound their strength was.
Although there was no fluctuation of power on their bodies, when their calm eyes swept past the crowd, everyone felt their blood run cold. Long Chen felt the same. Although they did not look at him and only swept past him, there was a strong pressure in those calm eyes, which directly stopped the True Qi in Long Chen's body from circulating.
"What a terrifying expert. If I were to fight against them, they wouldn't even need to make a move. They could directly subdue me with just a look. The top warriors of the Myriad Kingdoms Domain are actually this powerful." Long Chen was secretly speechless.
"The old patriarchs of the five clans are all more than four hundred years old. They have led the Five Element Alliance for nearly two hundred years. I didn't expect them to still be like this. They are old but strong," said Shao Yu, who was next to him.
"What is their strength?"
Long Chen asked in a low voice. He noticed that there were still many things he didn't understand about the nine great clans and the Primeval Cemetery, whereas amongst the nine great dynasties, this information would probably circulate the most. Since this Shao Yu had actually delivered himself to his doorstep, Long Chen didn't mind asking him a few more questions.
"The old patriarchs of the Five Element Alliance should be above the ninth level of the Earth Martial Arts Realm. It has been a long time since anyone has seen them fight. Thinking back, the achievements of the five of them really shocked the entire Myriad Kingdoms Domain. The entire Five Element Alliance is mostly supported by these five patriarchs. When the five of them work together, they are simply invincible," said Shao Yu in a low voice.
He could see that Long Chen should be from a relatively remote place, so he asked, "Little brother, I am from the Tianfeng Sacred Dynasty of the Five Element Alliance. What about you?"
"It's just a small country. Even if I told you, you wouldn't know," said Long Chen with a faint smile.
Shao Yu nodded. What Long Chen said was within his expectations.
"You're really brave to come to the Ancient Cemetery like this. Don't you know how dangerous the Ancient Cemetery is? If we didn't work together, we wouldn't have dared to come to this damned place."
Fatty Shao Yu pointed at his dozen or so fiendish companions and said to Long Chen. Among their group, only this Shao Yu could speak.
At this time, the Wind God and Thunder Devil lineages each had someone walk to the front. Long Chen looked over and saw a middle-aged man and a youth from the Thunder Devil lineage. The middle-aged man wore a purple brocade robe embroidered with a huge beast covered in lightning. The beast roared at the sky. The middle-aged man's physique was also quite robust, similar to Lei Zhen's. However, this person was much stronger than Lei Zhen. He had an inch long hair and a pair of dark purple eyes. At this moment, many blue lightning bolts were flashing in his eyes. His two small eyes seemed to contain all the lightning in the world.
The purple-robed middle-aged man narrowed his eyes. That huge pressure was even stronger than the Five Element Alliance's clan leader.
As for the other youth, Long Chen found it strange. Logically speaking, the purple-robed middle-aged man should be the clan leader of the Thunder Devil lineage. As for this youth, he should be the clan leader of the Devil lineage. However, how could a mere youth become the clan leader?
After taking a closer look, Long Chen realized that he had seen wrongly.
Although this person looked like a youth, his eyes were as deep as a bottomless pit. Everyone's gazes fell into them and even lost consciousness for a moment. Just from this point, it could be seen that this person's age was definitely not as young as his appearance suggested.
This youth gave the Dragon Clan a rather strange feeling. His face was deathly pale, and he looked like a sickly youth, as if he could not withstand a single blow. He also did not have the deterrence of the purple-robed middle-aged man beside him, but Long Chen felt that he was very terrifying. He just stood there casually, as if he was the center of the world, and everything around him was under his control.
