I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

Blind Chen frowned, a little confused, but didn't say much at this time.

Then, Zhao Qi looked at the team members and asked:

"Is that Chilong sealed in the Dragon Locking Well?"

The team members nodded one after another, and Han Feng told Zhao Qi everything that had happened in the past few days.

After listening to this, Zhao Qi let out a breath and asked:
"Did Chilong encounter any changes during this process, or did he leave anything in your body?"

This question left the team members a little confused.

Pan Zi seemed to have thought of something, took a few steps forward uncertainly, and said:
"Commander, something seems to have changed inside me. A few drops of dragon blood entered my body, and later, in order to save me, Qilin also forced a drop of blood into my body. Now I don't feel any discomfort, but I feel full of energy and my strength is much greater than before."

Zhao Qi looked at Pan Zi deeply, and then said meaningfully:

"This is your chance. If it were an ordinary person, the dragon blood would have broken their meridians. The military power in your body is emitted from the inside out. Your meridians have been much stronger than those of ordinary people due to the destruction and repair of the military power. That's why there is time for the Qilin to force a drop of Qilin blood into your body, forming a three-way balance. In other words, if this opportunity happened to anyone else, it would be an unsolvable disaster. But only you can get the opportunity in this disaster. However, you haven't completely merged the dragon blood and the Qilin blood yet. They are only temporarily balanced in the checks and balances. So you have to concentrate on practicing and completely merge the power of the dragon blood and the Qilin blood with the military power, so that there will be no hidden dangers."

After listening to this, Pan Zi nodded seriously. He did feel a surge of heat in his body from time to time, making it impossible for him to remain calm. It was as if an inexplicable force was controlling him. Now that Zhao Qi said this, Pan Zi finally understood what was going on.

At this time, Zhu Qingyang's voice came over:
"If the dragon blood in Pan Zi's body is not counted, then it seems that there is nothing special about it..."

Zhao Qi looked at the team members, thought for a while, then looked at Blind Chen and said:
"Blind Chen, please go to Lingbao Pavilion and borrow the Ancestral Dragon's Reverse Scale."

Blind Chen nodded and left.

The team members were all very puzzled. Looking at Zhao Qi's expression, it seemed as if he wanted to verify something.

Han Feng asked directly:
"Commander, what happened? Is it related to Chilong?"

Zhao Qi looked at Han Feng, thought for a while, then nodded and said:

"Those beings deep in the Kunlun Mountains have been awakened... Perhaps, this awakening is aimed at you."

This made the team members even more confused. They looked at each other, and no one could figure out what was going on.

Fortunately, Blind Chen soon returned with the Ancestral Dragon's Reverse Scale. It can be seen that Blind Chen got along well with these spiritual treasures with spiritual awareness during this period. In addition to Zhao Qi, only Blind Chen could talk to these spiritual treasures.

Now the Ancestral Dragon's Reverse Scale is in the hands of Blind Chen, but the spirit of the Reverse Scale has transformed into a small black dragon, coiled around Blind Chen's head.

At this moment, the little black dragon's eyes accidentally fell on Han Feng and the others, and he immediately showed a surprised expression. Then, as if instinctively, a hostile force burst out from the little black dragon. Although this force was quickly suppressed by the reverse scale, this point seemed to verify Zhao Qi's guess.

"Nilin, are there any marks left on their bodies?" Zhao Qi asked directly.

Ni Lin's voice seemed to come from the void:
"They have Dragon Taboo, which is a unique ability of the dragon race. When a dragon is in danger, it will add this power to its enemy. If other dragons sense it, they can take revenge. This power consumes the dragon's essence and blood, so only when they are desperate will they choose to leave Dragon Taboo on their enemies. All of them have been marked with Dragon Taboo."

Ni Lin's words surprised the team members.

At this moment, Zhu Qingyang also remembered that when the Chilong stared at them, tears of blood flowed from its eyes. At that time, several people felt dizzy, but no one took it seriously. Although Zhu Qingyang had read in ancient books that dragons have a strong desire for revenge, he didn't pay much attention to it. Unexpectedly, they were all left with dragon taboos by the Chilong.

But after thinking about it carefully, Zhu Qingyang felt strange again. What was there to be afraid of? That Chilong could basically be said to be the last dragon in the world. Even if there was a dragon taboo, it would be impossible for the dragon clan to come for revenge. In this case, what was there to be afraid of?
But Zhao Qi's next words made the team members stand there in a daze as if they were struck by lightning.

"It seems that this is the reason. No wonder they were awakened when they were supposed to be asleep. You have probably been targeted by the dragons."

"What? Dragon Clan?" Han Feng asked in disbelief, "Chief, there are still dragon clans in this world?"

Zhao Qi nodded seriously, then pointed to the Kunlun Mountains behind him and said:

"That's right, and the dragon clan is in the Tianchi Lake deep in the Kunlun Mountains!"

The team members stared with eyes wide open, looking shocked. They never thought that they would hear such incredible things from Zhao Qi. Dragon, a concept that has been closely associated with China since ancient times, is just an illusion to most people.

Now, Zhao Qi told them that there really were dragons in this world, and they were right in front of them in the Tianchi Lake of Kunlun Mountain. This news was simply hard for the team members to accept.

"Commander, have we made a mistake? This... how is it possible?" Yang Xueli pursed her lips slightly, her eyes full of doubt.

Zhao Qi shook his head slightly and said:

"I have always known about the dragon race. So when Han Feng and the others entered Kunlun Mountain, I reminded them many times not to go too deep. The Emperor of Man has issued an order that the world will be united and there will be no real dragons within a hundred years. Under this order, the sky dragons will return to the Tianchi Lake, be bound by the laws of heaven, and sleep forever. The earth dragons will enter the mountains, lose their nature and become dragon veins, connected with the fate of the country. The sea dragons will return to the sea, the Three Gorges Dam will be built, and the Dragon Gate will be sealed, and there will be no more dragons leaping over the Dragon Gate. All things in the world are reincarnated, and the dragon race will reappear in the next era of the Dharma, when Maitreya will become a Buddha under the Longhua Tree and the spiritual energy of the world will revive. That will be a long time in the future, so long that we can completely ignore it. But the Chilong accidentally awakened the sky dragons in the Tianchi Lake. They sensed the dragon taboo and I am afraid they will not sit idly by..."

"Rumble..."

As if to confirm Zhao Qi's words, dark clouds began to gather in the sky deep in Kunlun Mountain. The Kunlun Military Region was already under the calamity cloud and had not seen the sun for a long time. Now the distance was also covered by dark clouds, and the military region suddenly fell into darkness.

Along with the thunder, the team members seemed to hear strange roars mixed in the thunder.

"From now on, no one is allowed to leave the Kunlun Military Region without my order. As long as we are in this military region, the sky will not fall..." Zhao Qi looked at the team members, his voice firm and powerful, "If the dragon tribe is dormant, this matter will be regarded as nothing. But if the dragon tribe acts recklessly, the Kunlun Military Region will be your strongest backing. There is no need to be afraid, no need to be anxious, just train with peace of mind!"

These twelve words brought the team members peace of mind. Although the world had changed, as long as Zhao Qi was there, the team members felt at ease.

The team members nodded one after another. They were more surprised that there were dragons in the world, and they were in the Tianchi Lake of Kunlun Mountain. After Zhao Qi finished speaking, he let the team members disperse. He stood there, looking back at the thick dark clouds above the depths of Kunlun Mountain, his face was terrifyingly calm.

"I am the ancestor dragon, so why should I be afraid of the mere dragon clan?"

As if sensing the breath in the air, the scales' reaction became stronger and stronger. But Zhao Qi exerted a force on the scales, calming their restlessness instantly.

After the team members dispersed, Blind Chen looked at Zhao Qi in confusion and asked:
"Commander Zhao, from what you said, isn't this the catastrophe of life and death predicted in Shaobing's book?"

Zhao Qi shook his head slightly and said:

"Although the unexpected awakening of the dragon clan is troublesome, it is not so serious that it is not worth the appearance of the Shaobing Book. The life-and-death catastrophe that I can't even see through may be impossible to predict. Although the dragon clan is a crisis, it is not so serious."

Blind Chen heaved a sigh of relief and said:

"I see. I was really shocked. I thought..."

At this point, Blind Chen sighed deeply and continued:
"But then again, Commander Zhao, if the Dragon Clan really takes their anger out on the Kunlun Military Region because of Long Ji, it might cause unnecessary trouble, right?"

Zhao Qi nodded and said:

"That's right, so this matter must be resolved as soon as possible. And I don't intend to give the Dragon Clan a chance to vent their anger on the Kunlun Military Region."

Blind Chen was startled and asked:
"Commander Zhao, what do you mean? Are you saying..."

Before Blind Chen could finish, Zhao Qi's calm voice came:
"The dragons woke up when they shouldn't have. No matter what the reason is, it is a huge crisis for China now. Even if the dragons don't vent their anger on the Kunlun Military Region, I don't intend to let them go. They must sleep again until they wake up when they should. This is the bottom line!"

Zhao Qi's words fell softly, his voice as calm as a windless lake, but the chill contained in it was like an ice blade, piercing Blind Chen's heart.

“I, Zhao Qi, swear to point my sword at the Tianchi Dragon Clan in Kunlun Mountain. With my mortal body, I will challenge the legendary real dragon.” Zhao Qi’s eyes were firm, as if he had already seen the moment when he would confront the real dragon.

Upon hearing this, Blind Chen's face suddenly changed, and shock surged in his eyes. He trembled in his voice, and could hardly believe his ears: "Zhao Qi, you... do you know what you are talking about? That is the dragon clan of Kunlun Mountain Tianchi, a real dragon! How can a mortal compete with it?"

Zhao Qi smiled slightly, his smile was full of determination and confidence. "I know what I am saying and what I am doing. Blind Chen, the dragon scale in your hand is proof of that. I took it from a dragonborn who was trying to bring disaster to the world. If a dragonborn dares to be so arrogant, then what should I, Zhao Qi, be afraid of?"

Blind Chen looked at the dragon scale in his hand. The scale shone with mysterious light as if telling unknown secrets. He took a deep breath and tried to calm down his inner shock: "Zhao Qi, I admire your courage, but this is not a problem that can be solved by courage. The power of a real dragon is far beyond our imagination."

Zhao Qi shook his head, his eyes more determined: "Blind Chen, you are wrong. Strength is not everything, faith and determination are equally important. I, Zhao Qi, am willing to write a legend with my mortal body. Even if I fail in the end, I will have no regrets."

Blind Chen was deeply moved by Zhao Qi's words. He was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Zhao Qi, I understand your determination. But this matter is too dangerous. I must remind you to be careful."

After that, Blind Chen took the dragon scale and walked towards Lingbao Pavilion without saying a word. His back looked a little lonely, but his steps were unusually firm.

Zhao Qi still stood there, looking in the direction where Blind Chen left. Between heaven and earth, he was like a god of war, standing tall and unshakable. His heart was filled with expectations for the future and determination to challenge the real dragon. No matter how difficult the road ahead was, he would move forward courageously.

"Rumble..."

A muffled thunder roared, causing pain in the eardrums. At this time, the area around Kunlun Mountain Tianchi was already covered with dark clouds. Although it was daytime, it was so dark that one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.

Strong winds raged across the Kunlun Mountains, blowing up the old snow and spreading the cold everywhere. The residents at the foot of the mountain put on thick clothes and hid in their houses, shivering.

It's like the end of the world here, and every villager is filled with fear, not knowing what exactly is going on.

At this moment, in the rarely visited Tianchi Lake, the water kept rolling, and a huge creature was looming in the white mist. In the dark cave, pairs of eyes were as big as copper bells, and the dull breathing sound echoed in the mountains.

Every breath was accompanied by a violent wind and thunder in the sky. The birds and animals on the mountain seemed to have smelled the smell and fled in all directions, as if they were frightened.

The Way of Heaven is like a stream that flows continuously in one direction. The sudden awakening of the dragon race caused a branch to appear in the river. No one could predict how big the basin would eventually become, nor did anyone know what impact the branch would have on the original river.

The whole of China is still kept in the dark. The only ones who know about this and understand its seriousness are Zhao Qi and the members of the 543 Exploration Team.

So even though Zhao Qi didn't say it, he had already regarded this matter as a top priority.

The team members have also been gathering together to discuss this matter.

"Do you think the Dragon Clan will really attack the city and attack the leader?" Pan Zi asked the other team members in confusion. But the other team members naturally couldn't give an accurate answer.

"What abilities do dragons have? Can they really call the wind and rain as the legend says?" Aning blinked her big eyes and asked Zhu Qingyang in confusion.

Only Zhu Qingyang could possibly know about this. He said:
"The Chilong we encountered is not a real dragon. It can only be regarded as an existence of the same level as the Jiaolong. The real dragons in Tianchi are different. They really have the ability to call the wind and rain. They are even more powerful than the legend. If the dragon clan really comes to punish us one day and we cannot handle it properly, it will be a disaster. China today cannot resist such a disaster..."

Zhu Qingyang hit the nail on the head and pointed out the seriousness of the matter. The team members began to get anxious after hearing this.

Zhao Qi didn't seem to want them to get involved in this matter, but after roughly understanding the terrifying power of the dragon clan, the team members were unwilling to let Zhao Qi bear it alone.

But on second thought, with their current abilities, what can they do to help Zhao Qi? (End of this chapter)
