The surging spiritual pressure caused the sky to darken. Everyone turned their heads to look a thousand meters away.
In the north, dozens of figures sped past like sharp swords, leaving traces in the air. Leading them was a weathered old man. This old man was the patriarch of the Dragon Clan, Long Xuan.
Behind Long Xuan were dozens of Dragon Clan disciples. Qin Shi recognized a few of them. They were Dragon Fang and the others he had met at the Cold Spring Waterfall.
"Looks like what's coming has come."
Qin Shi let out a light snort. His black eyes suddenly focused, and he fiercely looked towards a corner behind Long Xuan. At that position, Qin Shi was looking at a young man dressed in ordinary clothes. The young man's presence was very weak. Ordinary people would not even notice him, but he firmly attracted Qin Shi's attention.
For some reason, although the young man did not speak, Qin Shi felt an unprecedented sense of danger. He frowned, "Looks like this person is the genius of the Hundred Races, Long Bai?"
As if feeling Qin Shi's gaze, the young man looked up. The moment his eyes met Qin Shi's, a faint smile appeared on his face.
This smile made Qin Shi's heart go cold.
The Dragon Clan's appearance caused the atmosphere to become serious. Even though they had lived in seclusion for a hundred years, the people present could not forget the terrifying family that had dominated the Hundred Races a hundred years ago.
"The Dragon Clan, why are they here?" The Flame Clan next to the Qilin Clan frowned.
"Could it be that they are coming back?"
"If that's the case, it's going to be lively this time."
The group of small families discussed among themselves, but the whispers disappeared when the Dragon Clan approached.
Long Xuan was still wearing a simple robe, but even that could not hide his threatening aura. He coughed lightly and the crowd cleared up. "Cough cough!
Everyone, long time no see? "
Creak!
Yin Hong's face turned ugly. He clenched his fists. "Hehe, so it's Patriarch Long Xuan. I didn't think you would come as well."
"Of course. Today is the most important day of the Hundred Races. As a member of one of the Hundred Races, how could I miss this?"
"If you're just here to watch the show, then just watch from the side. But before that, please hand over the Dragon Key of your Dragon Clan." Lin Yi and Yin Hong said side by side, making their positions clear.
Under the cooperation of the two family heads, Long Xuan's expression didn't change. "In the past, I was just watching the fun. This year, I'm not going to watch it anymore. Without my Dragon Clan, there's really nothing to see in the Hundred Clan Competition."
"Long Xuan, what do you mean by that?" The patriarch of the Yan Clan was enraged.
"Nothing much. It's just that this year, our Dragon Tribe is also preparing to participate in the Hundred Tribe Hero Competition. What do you think?"
Long Xuan spoke calmly in the face of the Yan Clan's fury. His words were like a question, but they were filled with the meaning of an order.
"The Dragon Clan is participating as well?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere boiled.
"Indeed, the Dragon race is going to make a comeback. Seems like it's going to be an unknown as to who will be able to come out on top this time around."
"Yes, although I don't know how the Dragon Clan has developed in the past hundred years, just the number one genius of the Hundred Tribe, Long Bai, is probably enough to sweep everyone. This time, even the Yin Clan might not be able to gain any advantage, right?"
To this, Qin Shi snorted disdainfully. He didn't know why he hated this old fellow.
"Boy, don't look down on this old fellow. Out of everyone here, he's the strongest. Even if the four family heads of the Yin Lin, Marquis, and Marquis joined forces, they might not be his opponent."
Evil Demon suddenly spoke, causing Qin Shi to blink his eyes and look at Long Xuan in disbelief. "You're saying that this old fellow is so powerful?"
"Yes, and I can feel that not far from this old fellow, there's an even more terrifying power than him. It's just that it hasn't shown itself yet."
"What?
An even more terrifying power than Long Xuan? "
Disbelief turned into shock. Only now did Qin Shi realize that the situation was not good. "If that's the case, then isn't it dangerous?"
"Yes. However, there's one thing you don't need to worry about. That guy who hasn't shown himself is at least a hundred years old. It's definitely impossible for him to be a participant in the Hundred Race Competition. You should calm down first and take the championship. It won't be too late to think of a solution then."
Helpless, Qin Shi could only nod his head. However, he felt strangely pressured inside. It looked like he had still underestimated the Hundred Tribe Competition. Originally, he thought that the five Heavens realm was the limit. Even if he could not sweep through them with the Evil Demon, he would not be threatened. However, it seemed like he had been dreaming.
Sensing Qin Shi's strangeness, the Evil Demon did not speak again. This was because it knew that this was not necessarily a bad thing for Qin Shi. At the very least, it could make Qin Shi exercise some restraint.
"As one of the Hundred Tribes, the Dragon Clan obviously has the right to participate in the Hundred Tribe Competition. Hand over the dragon key." Yin Hong sucked in a deep breath and gradually adjusted his emotions. Only then did he force a smile.
"That's for the best."
Long Xuan smiled gently. With heavy footsteps, he walked to Yin Hong's side step by step, placing himself under the last square on the chessboard.
Stopping there, his withered hand reached into the void. A few cracks appeared in the space in front of him, and a key engraved with ancient dragon patterns appeared from within.
"This is … the power of space-time?"
Throughout the entire process, Qin Shi was shocked. He could not be more familiar with this ability of Long Xuan's. Wasn't this the technique used by the Blood Shaman back then?
"Little guy, don't be too excited. He can't really control space-time. He only relies on a quick and violent attack to tear space apart. There's a fundamental difference between him and the Void Ancient Demon." The Evil Demon saw through Qin Shi's worries and said.
Hearing this, Qin Shi frowned, "Relies on an attack to tear space apart?"
"Yes. When ordinary people reach the Ascending Heaven realm, they can use elemental energy as a medium and possess the power to tear space apart." The Evil Demon said indifferently.
"Doesn't that mean that Long Xuan has the cultivation of the Ascending Heaven realm?"
Qin Shi's black pupils shrank and he could no longer remain calm. One must know that the Ascending Heaven realm was the Seven Heavens realm. At that level, one could possess the power to surpass the heavens.
"How is that possible? Do you think it's that easy to break through to the Ascending Heaven realm?
This Long Xuan has only broken through six days ago. Furthermore, his Spiritual Energy has not stabilized yet. "
"Then how can he tear space apart?" Qin Shi expressed his confusion.
"I'm not too sure either. However, I can feel a strong bloodline from the body of this dragon. If I'm not wrong, the body of this dragon should have inherited some of the true dragon's bloodline. That's why their attacks are so sharp, and they can even tear apart space in the Heaven's Equal Region."
Speaking up to here, the Evil Demon paused for a moment before continuing, "You must know that the True Dragon is the head of the Wild Beasts. They have the innate ability to tear space apart."
"True Dragon's bloodline?"
Hearing this name, Qin Shi could not help but be surprised, "So that's how it is. The clans within the Hundred Clan Territory all have their own unique characteristics. It seems that the uniqueness of the Dragon Clan is the True Dragon's bloodline, right?"
Tearing space apart, the Dragon Xuan's void trembled. The Dragon Inscription Key was like an arrow leaving the heavens, piercing through the small square in the center of the chessboard.
Boom!
The square was shattered and the surroundings of the grotto immediately rippled. An extremely terrifying power encircled from all directions, forming hundreds of different types of power. Finally, they gathered at the entrance of the grotto.
These hundreds of different powers came from the hundreds of keys that the Hundred Clans had sacrificed. These powers and the ripples on the grotto formed an inexplicable opportunity.
Buzz!
Just as the hundreds of powers poured in, a strange vortex suddenly appeared in the originally pitch-black cave. The vortex fused the hundreds of powers into a ball, finally forming a bottomless white ball of light.
"The Hundred Clan Sacred Land has opened."
As soon as the ball of light appeared, the crowd clamored. Yin Hong, Long Xuan, and the other Patriarchs were the first to stand up. Yin Hong and Long Xuan did not give way to each other and leaped towards the ball of light in the center.
More and more people disappeared on the ball of light.
Qin Shi squinted his eyes. "Is the Hundred Clan Sacred Land inside?"
"Yes, let's go in as well."
Yin Fenghao and the disciples of the other two clans gathered towards Qin Shi. Naturally, this included the troublemaker, Blood Dragon.
The sixteen of them gathered again. The corner of Qin Shi's mouth curled up slightly, emitting a strange aura. "Good. Next, let's make a big mess in the Hundred Clan Sacred Land."
"Let's go!"
Passing through the ball of light, it was a ten thousand meters wide landscape.
There was almost no difference between the inside of the barrier and the outside world. The sky was also azure, but the spiritual power here was unusually dense. It was so dense that Qin Shi was shocked.
"I remember last time, there was not even a bit of spiritual power in the center of the space barrier in the Barren Forest. Who would have thought that there would be such dense spiritual power in this space barrier?" Qin Shi gasped in amazement.
In the Hundred Clan Sacred Land, there was an extremely ancient battle platform. This platform was built for the Hundred Clan Competition. In the past, the battles were carried out on this platform.
Only then did the Hundred Clan Sacred Land enter the Hundred Clan Sacred Land. Only then did Yin Hong stand on the platform and clear his throat.
"I'm sure everyone knows that this year's Hundred Clan Sacred Land is slightly different from the previous ones. There will be four individual competitions. So, I won't waste any more time. The first competition will be a competition of attack. Patriarchs, please prepare with me."
Yin Hong's voice was very loud and clear, resounding through the entire Hundred Clan Sacred Land. Then, he made way for the other patriarchs of the Hundred Clan Sacred Land.
The hundred patriarchs stood on the platform. It was clear that they had already planned this clearly. They formed a circle and released their dense spiritual power at the same time. The hundred Heaven realm experts exerted their strength at the same time, creating a natural ripple. The ripple quickly formed a whirlpool, and in the center of the whirlpool was a clear pressure point. Behind the pressure point, a thousand metal shields materialized from spiritual power appeared.
After everything was prepared, Yin Hong turned around and announced the rules of the competition. "Participating disciples, the next competition will be an attack competition. Everyone can see this pressure point and the metal shields behind it. You should have noticed that there is a spiritual line on these metal shields that connects to the pressure point. In the competition later, you only need to attack the pressure point with all your strength. The power will be transmitted to the metal shields behind through these spiritual lines. As long as you have enough power, the metal shields will be destroyed. In the end, we will calculate the number of metal shields destroyed by each person. The one who destroys the most metal shields will be the winner!"
Hearing this, many disciples were eager to give it a try.
Qin Shi calculated from his surroundings. His spiritual power had already spread out invisibly. When his spiritual power came into contact with the metal shields, he could not help but frown. "Hah, these metal shields are all mixed with elemental power. It would be extremely difficult for a normal Third Heaven realm expert to break through three of them. Looks like the Hundred Clan Sacred Land has put in a lot of effort to prepare for this Hundred Clan Sacred Land Sacred Land."
"Of course. The rules this time were all decided by the patriarchs after a long discussion." Yin Fenghao nodded.
