A New Era Arrives! The Three Races Emerge

This day.

The Primordial World was peaceful and sunny.

Suddenly.

Above the sky.

A sound of shattering from the Unseen suddenly resounded throughout the entire Primordial World.

Above the Primordial World.

Even mortals and wild beasts without cultivation inexplicably looked up at the sky at this moment.

However, after only one glance, these creatures, along with the mindless beasts, lowered their heads again and went about their business.

Only the cultivators in the Primordial World showed excitement in their eyes and cheered.

Especially those cultivators born in this era who struggled so hard.

The moment they felt that unprecedented clarity of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the bottleneck that had trapped them for who knows how long was instantly broken through.

"It's over... This damned era of broken paths is finally over."

From an unnamed sacred mountain in the Primordial World, a deep, excited laugh suddenly emanated. The next moment, this lush, verdant mountain peak abruptly rose from the ground.

A giant rock formation, hundreds of thousands of feet tall, stood on the Primordial World land, laughing excitedly.

"Haha, the Great Dao, it is the Great Dao! The clear Great Dao..."

A mighty river that had flowed across this Primordial World for hundreds of millions of years suddenly surged and churned.

The next moment.

This long river, which has been used by countless living beings to draw water and nourish the vast land for countless years, suddenly floated up.

It transformed into a large water sphere in mid-air.

"That damned era of severed paths has finally ended, and I can finally feel the clear Great Dao of Water once again."

A roaring sound, like a raging flood, echoed from within the water sphere.

Such scenes were almost everywhere in the Primordial World.

Sacred mountains that have stood for countless ages since the beginning of Primordial World, rivers that have nourished the earth for billions of years, an inconspicuous rock here, an ordinary old tree there.

At this moment, they all transformed into cultivators, some at the Taiyi, some at the Daluo, and reappeared in the Primordial World.

Strange roars filled with excitement echoed across the vast Primordial World sky.

However, at that very moment...

A phoenix cry suddenly drowned out the excited roars that echoed throughout the entire Primordial World.

This familiar yet unfamiliar voice startled countless powerful beings throughout the Primordial World, causing them to all turn in the same direction.

That is...

The Primordial World southern continent.

It is a continent that looks like it has green mountains and clear waters, but in reality, nearly 60% of the area is a continent with continuous volcanoes that have been dormant for hundreds of millions of years.

At this moment.

Across the entire continent, those Undying Volcano that had been dormant for hundreds of millions of years began to boil.

Within the craters of volcanoes, magma boiled, and then, phoenixes and dragons, their bodies ablaze with flames, soared into the sky.

Following closely behind.

A resounding dragon roar came from the East Sea, instantly echoing Primordial World and drowning out the phoenix's cry.

The far easternmost land of the Primordial World.

The end of the vast East Sea.

A massive void rift spanning billions of miles suddenly appeared in the void.

Countless dragons leaped out of the void, their scales bristling and whiskers flying as they soared freely in mid-air.

A phoenix's cry and a dragon's roar shook the Primordial World.

This heralds the return of the Dragon and Phoenix clans in this new era.

The entire Primordial World was filled with wondrous sights of dragons and phoenixes soaring and dancing, scenes that not only shocked all living beings.

At the same time, it also caused countless powerful beings in the Primordial World to tremble.

"This is... the Dragon and Phoenix clans?"

"Didn't they say that the Dragon and Phoenix clans had declined?"

Throughout the Primordial World, powerful beings used methods similar to high-beam binoculars to observe these two locations from afar.

Looking at the Phoenix soaring freely over the southern continent of the Primordial World, and at the countless dragons roaming freely in the vast East Sea.

And the volcano and the void where Phoenix and dragons continued to emerge, countless powerful beings of the Primordial World remained silent.

It's not just this astonishing number.

The cultivation levels of the Phoenix and the dragon were equally astonishing to them.

Those unrestrained auras of the Daluo were, at a glance, numbering over a thousand from both the Dragon and Phoenix clans.

Even the aura of Quasi-Sage surpassing that of Daluo.

Beneath the volcano, and beyond the void, a dozen or so threads were revealed on each side.

For some reason, it did not appear in the Primordial World.

In the Primordial World, countless powerful beings fell silent at this moment.

Is this what you call decline?

What are they then?

It's always been declining, never rising again?

It doesn't even deserve to be called declining.

However, during this moment of shock and silence, countless Primordial World beings in the Primordial World were also filled with curiosity.

The Dragon and Phoenix clans have both emerged, so what about the Qilin Race, which was once on par with them?

The Phoenix Clan originated from their former territory Undying Volcano.

The Dragon Race also originated from the easternmost part of the East Sea they once ruled.

Then wouldn't the Qilin Race be...?

Thinking of this, many powerful beings from the Primordial World couldn't help but turn their curious gazes to the former territory of the Qilin Race.

The Primordial World Central Continent.

Then...

Then they saw the Nine Provinces Barrier that suppressed eight or nine tenths of the Primordial World Central Continent.

In a short time...

Countless powerful beings in the Primordial World suddenly understood.

Why hasn't the Qilin Race appeared yet?

Just as countless powerful beings from the Primordial World era were gaining enlightenment.

"Ahhh--"

"Who, who is so audacious as to suppress the spatial passage of my Qilin Race?"

An angry voice resounded throughout the Primordial World.

Then, a deafening roar was heard.

The moment the sound rang out, many powerful beings from the Primordial World eras immediately located its location.

Above, or rather, below, the territory of Liang Province, one of the Nine Provinces of the Human Race.

The exit of the Phoenix Clan's hidden world is at the crater of the Undying Volcano, while the exit of the Dragon Race's hidden world is at the East Sea.

The hidden exit of the Qilin Race's world lies beneath the earth.

In truth, the Qilin Race was wronged.

When the three races fought, all three were severely injured. The Qilin Race understood that the Primordial World Central Continent would no longer belong entirely to them.

But the Qilin Race was once a dominant race, even if they didn't occupy the entire Primordial World Central Continent.

But when it is born in the future, it will surely occupy a small portion.

Therefore, the location of the secluded world's exit was set in a slightly remote area of the Primordial World Central Continent.

They planned to declare this territory theirs immediately upon its birth.

But...

How could they have foreseen this?

A Human Race has emerged in this era.

They lack martial ethics.

They directly used a barrier to suppress and occupy eight or nine tenths of the Primordial World Central Continent.

The remote areas favored by the Qilin Race belonged to Liang Province, now the capital of the Human Race, so...

Below Liang Province.

Deep in the earth.

A Qilin with a head that was hundreds of thousands of feet long looked up at the earth above, which was filled with countless divine runes, its eyes filled with rage.

Behind him.

It was an abyss of unknown depth, beneath which lay the world where his Qilin Race lived in seclusion.

As they sensed Primordial World passing of the previous era and the arrival of the new one, the Qilin Race prepared to unleash their power.

As they prepared to announce the return of the Qilin Race to the Primordial World.

The many Qilin ventured out of the world and into the Primordial World discovered that the exit connecting their Qilin Race to the Primordial World was blocked.

Moreover, the barrier blocking the exit of the Qilin Race is enormous, making it difficult for them to find a way out.

They would probably have to travel hundreds of millions of miles to get out.

Then.

The patriarch of the Qilin Race, who was originally scheduled to make a grand entrance, appeared.

He prepared to forcefully break through the seal above and powerfully announce the return of his Qilin Race to the Primordial World.

But...

It's obvious.

He failed.

Even with his Late-Stage Hunyuan Golden Immortal cultivation, his full-force attack failed to budge the seal in the slightest.

(All three races cultivate the Hunyuan Daluo, and only when Hunyuan Golden Immortal breaks through will Heavenly Punishment descend upon the world.)

"Damn it!" the Qilin Race roared, his eyes blazing with fury. "Form the Qilin Grand Array!"

"Form the Qilin Grand Array!"

"Form the Qilin Grand Array!"

The sound reached the abyss of the earth, from which countless Qilin flew out and landed behind the Qilin Race.

A surge of Law Power erupted from within each of the Qilin.

In an instant, countless profound runes surged forth, rapidly connecting and merging with each Qilin as a node.

Soon, a terrifying Qilin of unimaginable size appeared beneath this Primordial World land.

If it weren't for the Qilin Race manipulating the enormous Qilin within the formation to unleash his Divine Ability, the surrounding land would not have been affected.

Otherwise, a new pillar of heaven would probably have risen directly from this Primordial World land.

"Die!"

The Qilin Race roared, and his right hoof slammed out, gathering boundless power upon it, accompanied by the Great Dao.

The terrifying divine power was unleashed without reservation, striking the Nine Provinces Barrier above.

"Boom--"

A deafening roar echoed throughout the Primordial World.

The vast, Primordial World Central Continent and the boundless Nine Provinces of Human Race trembled at this moment.

But...

All that remained was trembling.

"This..."

Within the Qilin Grand Array, countless Qilin were stunned, not expecting the restrictions above to be so sturdy.

"No, that's not right..."

Suddenly, the Qilin Race's expression hardened, and a look of seriousness appeared in his eyes.

Previously, driven by rage, he only wanted to destroy the restrictions above without thoroughly investigating, but now he is manipulating the Qilin Grand Array.

Its power is limitless.

Even without consciously looking, he still noticed that something was wrong earlier.

Especially during the attack just now, he actually felt that he was attacking not the restriction above his head, but the vast Primordial World Continent.

And...

This restriction doesn't seem to be specifically designed to block or suppress his Qilin Race; it's more like...

"Could this restriction connect to the entire Primordial World Central Continent?" A terrifying thought suddenly arose in the mind of the Qilin Race.

The Qilin Race looked rather grim.

If, as he suspected, the restriction truly connects the entire Primordial World Central Continent, let alone whether he could blast it open and overturn it.

Even if it were possible.

They wouldn't dare to do that at all.

"Snort!"

Looking at the terrifying restriction above his head, the Qilin Race snorted coldly and immediately unleashed his Divine Ability without hesitation.

They bypassed the restriction and appeared in the Primordial World.

A few breaths later, the Qilin Race, whose expression was not good, appeared in the Primordial World, riding the Qilin Grand Array.

Now that they've guessed the restrictions above their heads might be connected to the Primordial World land, forming a terrifying array...

The Qilin Race naturally wouldn't easily control the Qilin Grand Array and step into the formation.

Across an extremely vast distance, a colossal Qilin, its feet firmly planted on the earth and its head reaching for the heavens, appeared outside the Nine Provinces Barrier.

Looking at the enormous barrier that covered eight or nine tenths of the Primordial World Central Continent, the Qilin Race's face was extremely grim.

Although he had suspected it before, seeing it with his own eyes still infuriated the Qilin Race.

This ignited a burning rage in the hearts of countless Qilin Race.

Eight or nine out of ten Primordial World Central Continent are covered by this barrier. Isn't this behavior a clear declaration that this is their territory?

Moreover, the area that the Qilin Race had decided to return to as their ancestral home millions of years ago was completely enveloped by this barrier.

"Chieftain, let's fight!"

"Shatter this barrier and announce the return of my Qilin Race!"

Within the grand formation.

Many kings or elders of the Qilin Race at the Hunyuan Golden Immortal level roared in anger.

"Good!"

The Qilin Race gave a deep, low shout.

Although the barrier before us is incredibly vast, the race that could establish such a barrier must be extremely powerful.

However, when the Qilin Race once dominated the Primordial World, all other races on the Primordial World land were either subordinate to or even food for them.

Who has the Qilin Race ever feared?

Moreover...

A new era has just begun.

Even if the overlords of the Primordial World have not perished, they must have suffered heavy losses in the Immeasurable Tribulation of the previous era.

Thinking of this.

Without further hesitation, the Qilin Race manipulated the Qilin divine body formed by the Qilin Grand Array Formation and began to move.

Carrying terrifying power, it crashed directly into the Nine Provinces Barrier.
