Chapter 143 The Development of the Three Clans' Power
While Zhen Yuanzi was diligently refining the Qiankun Cauldron and repairing the origin of the supreme treasure within the Wuzhuang Temple, the primordial land outside did not halt its surging forward momentum due to the fall of a Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
The river of time continues to flow relentlessly, all things flourish, and all races prosper. A glorious era belonging to scaled creatures, birds, and beasts is sweeping across the primordial world at an unprecedented speed. Its protagonists are the three races of dragons, phoenixes, and qilin, who are born with innate energy.
On the shores of the East China Sea, the dragon race rises. Beneath the azure waters lies a world far more vast, profound, and mysterious than the land.
The Dragon Clan, a race born from the essence of water and naturally able to control all waters, is integrating all the water forces of the primordial world at an unprecedented speed under the brilliant leadership of the Ancestral Dragon.
The First Dragon resides in the Dragon Palace, a forbidden area deep within the East Sea, which is not the magnificent and resplendent place one might imagine.
Instead, it is a blue crystal palace formed by the confluence of countless enormous innate water veins, with each brick containing the vast laws of water.
With each breath of his enormous dragon body, he caused the tides of the four seas to rise and fall.
Zhulong hides in the secret realm of time deep within the Dragon Palace, using his unique perspective on time to avoid risks for the expansion of the dragon race and to glimpse a corner of the future.
The dragons' conquests were not solely based on brute force; they employed a combination of benevolence and coercion.
For powerful aquatic creatures, such as the Xuan Turtle Clan, which carries the Immortal Island and has a long lifespan, the Dragon Clan offers them high positions, shares water resources, and allows them autonomy, requiring only that they cooperate in battle under the Dragon Clan's command.
The dragons provide shelter to the gentle but numerous Spirit Shell Clan, protecting them from the ferocious beasts of the deep sea. In return, the Spirit Shell Clan uses their unique spiritual energy to cultivate pearls for the dragons and purify the waters.
For those unruly groups that attempt to challenge the authority of the dragons, the dragons' iron fist is revealed.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale clan is enormous in size and possesses immense magical power; they once dominated remote sea areas.
Several golden dragons, each ten thousand feet tall, joined forces to set up the "Ten Thousand Dragons Overturning the Sea Formation," triggering thunderstorms and tsunamis that forced the Demon Whale King and his main force into a desperate situation, ultimately forcing them to either submit or be annihilated.
The hydra, the venomous sea monster, and other ferocious aquatic creatures were either destroyed or subjugated by the dragon clan's elite forces.
Gradually, wherever water flows, whether it be the vast ocean or inland rivers and lakes, the banner of the dragon race is raised.
Hundreds of millions of aquatic creatures, from the colossal monsters that wreak havoc on the seas to the bewildered water spirits, all revere the dragon race as their common lord.
The dragon race established a strict system of aquatic rule, dividing the seas, appointing dragon kings, and constructing a vast aquatic empire with the dragons at its core and many powerful races as its support. All creatures, regardless of scales or armor, bowed before it.
Meanwhile, in the boundless sky and vast forests surrounding the Immortal Volcano in the south, the Phoenix Clan, under the guidance of Yuan Feng, is creating a legend belonging to birds.
The Nirvana Temple, where Yuan Feng resides, is located inside the largest crater of the Immortal Volcano, surrounded by the eternally burning yet vibrant Nanming Fire.
She rules the Phoenix Clan, placing even greater emphasis on the nobility of bloodlines and the order of the skies. The Phoenix Clan itself is the symbol of the leaders of birds, and its majesty is almost imprinted deep within the bloodlines of all birds.
For races with ancient bloodlines and great potential, such as the Golden-Winged Roc, whose speed is as fast as lightning and whose claws can tear through the sky, the Phoenix Clan treats them with respect, bestowing upon them feathers containing the true fire of the phoenix to help purify their bloodline and absorb them as a sharp blade to conquer the sky.
The Phoenix Clan placed the Seven-Colored Spirit Parrots, who were exceptionally intelligent and skilled at weaving clouds, in the spiritually rich Wutong Forest, ordering them to manage the palace and convey imperial decrees.
For those fierce and territorial birds of prey, such as the Rending Wind Eagle and the Howling Falcon, the Phoenix Clan demonstrates its absolute power as the overlord of the skies.
Yuan Feng's Fire Phoenix Guard, riding on raging flames, sets up the "Burning Heaven Feather Formation." Wherever they pass, the clouds turn red, and those who dare to challenge them are often reduced to ashes under the endless blazing divine feathers.
The Night Owl King attempted to use the darkness to fight against treachery, but the Phoenix Clan used their supreme divine power to ignite the Great Sun True Fire, illuminating the gloomy mountain range where its lair was located as bright as day, ultimately forcing it to submit.
The phoenix clan's rule extends to almost all birds of prey, from the snowy owls of the far north to the peacocks of the southern rainforests; from the vultures of the western Gobi Desert to the seagulls of the eastern coast.
The sky became the territory where the Phoenix Clan and its vassal Feather Clan could freely soar.
They established observation points on the highest mountain peaks, built palaces deep within the sea of clouds, and wove an invisible network covering the vast expanse of the sky.
Qilin Cliff, the ruler of all beasts. On the vast and boundless primordial land, the Qilin clan, the king of beasts, under the guidance of the primordial Qilin, both kind and majestic, is also writing its own chapter as the overlord of the land.
Qilin Cliff is not steep or precipitous, but rather a peaceful and sacred place shrouded in auspicious clouds and countless wisps of mist. The primordial Qilin embodies the benevolent spirit of the earth, and its method of governance is more gentle, yet not without its swift and decisive measures. It emphasizes both "subduing with virtue" and "comparing with authority."
The Qilin treated auspicious beasts such as the Nine-Colored Deer, which symbolized good fortune and whose path was similar to that of the Qilin, as friends. They were often invited to Qilin Cliff to discuss the Dao and explore the mysteries of the earth. These beasts became the most steadfast allies of the Qilin clan.
The Qilin tribe provides shelter to the numerous wildebeest, spirit sheep, and other tribes that form the cornerstone of the beast world, designating fertile grasslands for them to thrive. These tribes, in turn, become the foundation of the Qilin tribe's military strength and resources.
However, the land is never short of ferocity and wildness. The saber-toothed tiger king rules the western jungles, its claws capable of tearing mountains apart;
Ancient mammoths roam the northern snowfields, their long trunks capable of stirring up rivers; Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell, guards the entrance to the underworld, its demonic flames reaching the heavens.
The First Qilin first sent messengers to explain the advantages and disadvantages of these unruly and ferocious beast kings, expressing its willingness to accept them with benevolence and virtue.
If they remain obstinate, he will personally lead the Black Qilin and many auspicious beasts, drawing upon the power of the earth to set up the "Nine Mountains Demon-Suppressing Formation," using its unparalleled weight and power to completely suppress them. Those who stubbornly resist, such as the ferocious Taotie beast, will be eternally imprisoned deep within the earth's veins beneath Qilin Cliff as an example to others.
Thanks to the efforts of the First Qilin, all kinds of beasts, whether they were foxes and wolves in the deep mountains and forests, lions and leopards on the grasslands, or venomous pythons and giant lizards in the swamps, gradually acknowledged the Qilin clan's status as the supreme ruler.
The Qilin clan established a system of tribute and protection based on blood ties and territorial boundaries. The order on land was promulgated and maintained by Qilin Cliff.
With the Dragon Clan ruling over the waters and all creatures submitting to them; the Phoenix Clan dominating the skies and all birds submitting to them; and the Qilin Clan ruling the land and all beasts revering them, the power structure of the primordial world underwent a dramatic transformation.
Apart from the mysterious and unpredictable territory of the Demon Ancestor Luo, which entrenched itself in the west, and some scattered lairs of unruly ancient ferocious beasts and dojos of innate deities, the vast primordial land, sky, and sea were almost entirely divided up by the three races.
