I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

We have to go to Tianchi to visit the dragon clan and find out how many dragons have awakened so that we can know how much time we have.

The things in these boxes are our last guarantee.

The items you brought back last time have never been activated, and the national fortune in that area has never been restored.

Just for today.”

After saying that, Zhao Qi walked towards Tianchi again. The team members looked at each other, and a hint of determination flashed in their eyes.

This means that they cannot fail. If they fail, they may accelerate a historical process that should not exist.

As Zhao Qi said before, everything in the world has its destiny.

Who would have thought that all the connections had quietly emerged since the North Sea.

Ni Lin's roar awakened the Chilong, and the Chilong pushed the entire world to the brink of destruction.

The majesty of heaven can be seen...

The team members' emotions became extremely heavy, as if a huge rock was pressing on their hearts, making it almost impossible for them to breathe.

They suddenly realized that this operation was far more complicated than they had imagined, and that the fate of the entire Dharma Ending Age rested on their shoulders.

This matter has nothing to do with the good or bad of the dragon clan, nor does it have anything to do with the dragon clan’s attitude towards the Dharma Ending Age.

It’s just that the dragon clan shouldn’t have appeared in this era. This was the boundary set by heaven long ago. However, now, due to a series of coincidences, this boundary was quietly broken.

And precisely because this is the Dharma-Ending Age, the Way of Heaven is no longer a fixed and unchanging law.

Zhao Qi led the team members to continue moving up the mountain. The higher they went, the more desolate the environment became.

Without the shelter of the trees, the biting cold wind penetrated into the bone marrow. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably have been unable to move forward.

The snow was already up to the team members' knees, making every step they took extremely difficult.

In addition, they were each carrying a large box, and the weight of the box made it even more inconvenient for them to move.

Finally, the team members arrived near Tianchi. The water of Tianchi not far away was boiling, as if foreshadowing the coming of some disaster.

However, what puzzled the team members was that they never saw any dragon.

According to the team members' idea, the dragon is so huge that it should be visible at a glance.

But when they got here, they saw only desolation all around, and no trace of the dragon.

"What's going on? I thought I would see a shocking scene..." Zhu Qingyang murmured to himself, and his words also expressed the thoughts of the other team members.

However, Zhao Qi looked towards Tianchi meaningfully: "We have entered their territory. Next, we should use courtesy before force..."

As soon as Zhao Qi finished speaking, a muffled thunder suddenly sounded in the sky.

A deep and old voice was heard amidst the thunder: "Humans, we haven't seen humans here for a long time..."

When the sound came, the team members looked around vigilantly, but could not find the source of the sound.

Zhao Qi seemed exceptionally calm. He looked towards the direction of Tianchi and said calmly and firmly, "The dragon race shouldn't have awakened at this time. The spiritual energy here can no longer support a large dragon race.

We are here to seek a peaceful solution on behalf of humanity and the entire Dharma Ending Age."

Zhao Qi stated his purpose and position directly.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the voice disappeared, and the team members couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, not knowing what would happen next.

"Crack!"

At this moment, Kunlun Mountain suddenly shook violently without any warning, and even bigger cracks appeared on the already cracked ground.

The water in Tianchi Lake became more turbulent, and the team members had to quickly steady themselves while holding on to the boxes in their hands tightly.

Then, in front of the team members’ wide eyes, a ten-meter-long dragon hovered on a mountain not far away and slowly opened its eyes.

When the dragon was motionless, it seemed to have merged with the mountain, and the team members did not notice anything unusual.

It was not until now that the earth-brown dragon began to swim, causing the entire Kunlun Mountains to tremble violently, that the team members realized the existence of the dragon.

This dragon is similar to the Chilong seen previously, but its size is nearly twice as large.

Moreover, the pressure emanating from this dragon was obviously stronger. Just the pair of dragon eyes made the team members feel short of breath.

"You have dragon taboos on you. How dare a mere human slay a dragon!"

Apparently, the earth-brown dragon discovered the marks left by the Chilong on the team members' bodies.

As a member of the dragon clan, it has an extremely keen sense of dragon taboos.

The moment it woke up, the dragon sensed Long Ji's presence, but because it had just woken up, its body was still very weak, and the thin spiritual energy could not support its activities for a long time, so it remained silent.

Therefore, the earth-brown dragon was very angry at this time.

Slaying a dragon is something the dragon clan cannot tolerate, not to mention that this group of people who fear dragons actually came to their doorstep. Isn't this a blatant provocation to the dragon clan?

Zhao Qi slowly took a step forward and stood between the team members and the real dragon.

Compared with this dragon, Zhao Qi seemed too small, but for some reason, when the team members saw Zhao Qi's back, they felt at ease.

"We came here with sincerity. Why didn't the Dragon King show up in person, but sent you, a mountain dragon?"

Hearing this, the team members all gasped.

It has to be said that Zhao Qi's words were too arrogant. To Shanlong, this was undoubtedly a naked provocation.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Qi finished speaking, the mountain dragon roared, and then the air around it began to become turbulent.

With the naked eye, it can be seen that a large amount of white spiritual energy flows into the mountain dragon's body, and then the mountain dragon circles up, as if it will rush forward in the next second.

The team members were all on alert as if they were facing a great enemy. They knew in their hearts that with their current strength, they would never be able to fight against this dragon.

But at this time, no one has time to think too much.

Looking at Shanlong's actions, Zhao Qi remained calm and just raised his leg and stomped lightly on the ground.

"boom!"

A dazzling golden light emanated from Zhao Qi, and then a Dharma image condensed behind him.

Zhao Qi’s figure is tiny, but his image stands tall and upright, and his aura is no less imposing than that of a mountain dragon.

The Dharmadhatu stood behind Zhao Qi with angry eyes, wearing golden armor and with the heavenly eye on his forehead wide open.

The aura emanating from this statue immediately made Shanlong feel threatened, and he quickly stopped his original intention to rush forward.

This mountain dragon does not have a high status in the dragon clan, it is just a guard.

But the pride in the dragon's blood made it never take these humans seriously.

However, when the Dharma image behind Zhao Qi appeared, Shanlong finally realized the unusualness of these people.

Zhao Qi still stood there without any movement, but the tall statue of the Dharmadhatu was enough to intimidate the mountain dragon and prevent it from acting rashly.

"Come on, step back, let them in..."

Just when the atmosphere was at a stalemate, a voice suddenly came out and the team members looked at each other.

They looked around again, and apart from this mountain dragon, they could indeed not see any other dragons.

But the voice was clearly talking to the mountain dragon, and the team members also learned the name of the mountain dragon from this sentence - Aolai.

Aolai was obviously unwilling to give up, and stared at Zhao Qi and the others fiercely, but in the end, he suddenly raised his head towards the sky and opened his bloody mouth. As Aolai opened his mouth to bite something, and then pulled it down hard, the team members clearly saw that the space around them was like water, and ripples appeared.

This made the team members immediately realize that there was a secret place on Kunlun Mountain!

Because they had seen this kind of ripples before when they entered the secret realms of various sects.

Sure enough, at the place where Aolai had just bitten, it was as if a door opened, revealing another scene.

Then Ao went in on his own and soon disappeared without a trace.

The team members could clearly see that the trees in the secret world were lush and full of vitality...

This vitality formed a sharp contrast with the desolation deep in the Kunlun Mountains at this time.

Looking at this scene, Zhao Qi sighed softly: "That is the secret place where the dragon clan has been sleeping. The mountain dragon you saw just now is just a guard of the lowest level of the dragon clan."

It is hidden in the embrace of the Kunlun Mountains and blends seamlessly with the mountains.

This mountain dragon alone has almost drained the spiritual energy of the entire Kunlun Mountain. It is hard to imagine that if all the dragons in the secret realm were to go out, this Dharma Ending Age would probably be reduced to purgatory in an instant."

The team members deeply resonated with Zhao Qi's words. Along the way, they were terrified by the current situation of Kunlun Mountain.

"Captain, can these dragons speak?" Han Feng was puzzled. Zhao Qi nodded gently:

“That’s right, dragons are advanced creatures. Not only can they speak human language, they also possess extraordinary wisdom.

After all, they were once the masters of this world and the supreme beings.

But later, the dragons became numerous and unruly in nature, and their bloodline became extremely mixed.

The situation changed only when the Emperor of Heaven issued an amnesty."

Zhao Qi spoke as he waved his hand gently, then walked towards the entrance to the secret realm.

Although the team members felt uneasy, they did not think too much and quickly followed because Zhao Qi was there.

The moment the team members followed Zhao Qi into the secret realm, the entrance behind them disappeared in an instant.

This made the team members panic, as it meant that their only way of retreat had been cut off.

What's more, the secret realm was originally the territory of the dragon clan. They were already at a disadvantage. The 543 exploration team had no advantage of time and place in this territory that did not belong to them.

How can the team members relax when facing the unfathomable and powerful dragon clan?
However, after entering the secret realm, the team members were soon stunned, because they found that the scenery inside the secret realm was extremely similar to the Kunlun Mountains outside, except that everything was magnified several times.

Especially the Tianchi Lake in the secret realm is exactly the same as the one outside, except that the Tianchi Lake here is vast and boundless.

After seeing this Tianchi Lake, the team members all felt that the Tianchi Lake here was more worthy of its name.

"Huh...huh..."

Gusts of wind came from not far away, mixed with a hint of fishy smell.

The team members subconsciously looked in the direction where the wind came from, and saw a huge dragon head coming into view.

This is a blue dragon, lying on the ground, its body blocked by the mountains, only its huge head showing, its eyes closed, and it is sleeping soundly.

"Look over there!" Aning exclaimed, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and only then did they truly appreciate the extraordinary nature of the secret realm.

The trees are several meters high and lush, with several giant green dragons looming among them.

Inside the cave, a brown mountain dragon stood still like a sculpture.

In the Tianchi Lake, blue water dragons appear and disappear from time to time, some are still sleeping, and some have shown signs of waking up.

Looking around, one can see at least ten dragons in this world, and who knows how many are hidden in the unseen places.

“They have been sleeping here for thousands of years. The concentration of spiritual energy here is extremely high, so the trees are lush and the grass is verdant.

The spiritual energy nourishes the dragon race, and the dragon race in turn absorbs and exhales abundant spiritual energy, forming a virtuous cycle that allows this secret realm to exist for a long time..."

Zhao Qi looked around and calmly explained to the team members.

The team members nodded one after another, finally understanding the current situation.

"Humanity?"

Just as the team members were looking around, a voice came from somewhere, and then the three awakened dragons opened their eyes wide, circled in the air, and let out angry growls.

Seeing this, the team members became nervous, gripped their weapons tightly, and prepared for battle.

Zhao Qi did not react much. He just stood with his hands behind his back and looked up quietly at the huge creature hovering in the air.

A water dragon was surrounded by dark clouds, a mountain dragon glared at it, and the ground began to tremble slightly.

There is also a green dragon with lightning wrapped around its body. It is obvious that these three dragons are not good guys.

However, Zhao Qi looked calm, as if he was not afraid of danger.

But the team members behind Zhao Qi were extremely nervous. They could clearly feel the powerful pressure emanating from the three dragons. This was the most obvious gap in strength.

They finally realized how lucky they were to have captured Chilong at that time.

The Chilong is only one step away from the real dragon, but they are two completely different existences.

The scales on the Chilong are not real dragon scales, and its body has not been struck by lightning, so its defense has not reached its strongest state.

But it is not the case with a real dragon. In a thunder catastrophe, all its scales are destroyed, and its tendons and veins are destroyed and then reshaped to form a dragon body.

It is conceivable how strong the dragon scales and dragon body formed under such circumstances are.

More importantly, true dragons can often see through some of the secrets of heaven and master the power of elements.

As a result, the team members had almost no ability to fight back.

Facing such an opponent, all the efforts of the players seemed in vain.

More and more spiritual energy gathered around, and white light enveloped the three dragons.

Obviously, the three dragons are ready to launch a fatal attack at any time.

"Ok?"

At this critical moment, Zhu Qingyang suddenly noticed something strange.

He looked at his hands in astonishment, a feeling of powerlessness spreading through his body.

"Master Dog, what's wrong with you?"

The team members looked at Zhu Qingyang in astonishment. When he raised his head, he showed the same expression.

"Your faces..."

"your face……"

The team members pointed at each other in surprise and spoke in unison.

Then, the team members touched their faces one after another. Although there was no change in their sense of touch, they knew that something must be different...

The members of Team Two looked at the members of Team One in surprise. They found that veins bulged on the eyebrows and eyes of Han Feng and the others, and the veins gradually turned black, forming a pattern similar to dragon scales.

This abnormal change greatly surprised the members of Team 2.

This situation only happened to the first team members, while the second team members were not affected at all. (End of this chapter)
