Chapter 700 - Five Element Alliance

The differences between each clan of the Five Element Alliance was apparent. According to the others, they were the descendents of the Five Emperors. Their martial techniques corresponded to the elements of their respective clans, which were the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Each of the clans was strong to begin with, but they were stronger than the Divine Wind faction and the Thunder Demon faction if all five of them worked together.

Long Chen saw that the people from the Five Element Alliance had a distinctive feature. Their heads had markings with the symbol of gold, wood, fire, water, and earth depending on their clan. It must be a mark that they are born with. There’s probably certain martial techniques that only they can use through the marks on their foreheads.

Long Chen then looked at the Thunder Demon faction. There were two clans in that faction, being the Thunder clan and the Demon clan. They didn’t have any markings, but their appearance was distinct enough. Those from the Thunder clan all sported large frames with electrifying auras enveloping their bodies just like Lei Zhen, while those from the Demon clan looked like regular people. They wore black overalls, but their faces were paler and more sinister-looking.

Long Chen was more wary of the Divine Wind faction since he had killed Feng Xuan. She had left a mark on his body, so he dared not get close to them. He would be dead if they discovered him on the starplate since there was nowhere to run to.

The Divine Wind faction looked similar to each other, with the people from the Wind clan all wearing green overalls. They looked elegant and haughty, while those from the Divine clan were all of extreme beauty. They wore pure-white overalls without a hint of dirt on them.

But there were few truly pure people in this world. The Divine clan wouldn’t have grown this strong if they hadn’t used tricks or massacred people.

Both the Demon and Divine clans were slightly stronger than the other clans. They only had several people with them, but each of them were elites amongst the elites. Their auras and strength were beyond regular cultivators.

Long Chen was now weaker than the most unremarkable cultivators on the starplate.

The Ancient Graveyard was clearly an event where the Nine Great Clans would contest each other for treasures. While there were quite a few strong people among the eight thousand regular cultivators, they would be no match for the Nine Great Clans.

The final battle for the real treasures would almost certainly be between the Nine Great Clans. The other cultivators weren’t qualified to even get close to them.

“Looking at how many people they sent, the Nine Great Clans are going all-out this time ...”

“I wonder if we have any chance with so many strong cultivators here.”

“We can only do our best. I fear that we won’t be able to get out if we don’t kill enough people, much less find treasures of our own.”

Everyone prepared themselves when the Nine Great Clans showed up.

The awe in their eyes reminded Long Chen of how he was in awe of the regular cultivators the first time he arrived in the Divine Martial Empire.

Since the fight between the Nine Great Clans doesn’t concern me, I should stand somewhere further away, especially from the Wind clan. Long Chen was about to leave when someone stopped him. It was the plump man from before. Because of how the people moved just now, Long Chen had approached the man unknowingly.

“Brother, are you really going to the Ancient Graveyard alone? You have guts.” The man was shocked to see that Long Chen was not only alone, but also much weaker than himself!

“Yes.” Long Chen nodded before he stared at the man in front of him. If the man had ill intentions, Long Chen decided that he would stop talking to him.

“Don’t worry, I’m not aiming for your neck. My name is Shao Yu. You can just call me Big Yu. What about you?” Big Yu was surprisingly friendly.

One could tell if a person was sincere or not through their eyes. Long Chen could tell that Big Yu was worried about him after he had saved the latter from falling away.

“I’m Long Chen.” His icy expression softened a little.

Shao Yu chuckled and wanted to talk to Long Chen about other things, but their surroundings suddenly turned silent. That was because the Nine Great Clans were talking in the center of the starplate. Long Chen and the others tried eavesdropping on their conversation.

Several people walked to the front of the three factions. Long Chen assumed that those were the leaders of their respective groups, the people that Long Chen could not afford to offend for now.

Five elders appeared from the Five Element Alliance, each of them representing the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth clans. They were all extremely ancient. Those at the First Earthly Martial Stage have a lifespan of a hundred years, while every increase in a stage increases their lifespan by fifty years. If they are at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage, they can live for up to five or six hundred years.

The five elders looked like regular old men, not emitting any sort of aura, but Long Chen knew how scary they were, seeing as they could perfectly control their power. The less one’s aura fluctuated, the more adept one was at controlling it. The five elders were, without a doubt, ancient monsters capable of controlling their auras perfectly.

Even though there weren’t any auras, their calm eyes paralyzed the others from fear. When they looked around and saw Long Chen, the calm but oppressive feeling actually forced Long Chen’s essence to stop circulating for a moment.

What incredible masters. They could’ve suppressed me with just a single glance. Are the strongest cultivators from the Ten Thousand Nations Territory that strong?

“The five patriarchs of the Five Element Alliance. Each of them is more than four hundred years old and has ruled the Five Element Alliance for more than two hundred years. To think they are still so strong,” Shao Yu commented.

“How strong are they?” Long Chen whispered. He realized there were still a lot of things he didn’t know. The Nine Divine Empires was where information traveled quickly, and Long Chen did not hesitate to ask Shao Yu questions.

“They are probably stronger than most Ninth Earthly Martial Stage cultivators, but it’s been a long time since anyone saw them fight. The heroic deeds they accomplished in the past are still being circulated around the Ten Thousand Nations Territory even right now. They are the pillars of the Five Element Alliance. Their combined attacks are extremely powerful!” Shao Yu whispered back.

Shao Yu noticed that Long Chen appeared to have come from a more remote place, “Hey, I come from the Heavenly Wind Empire of the Five Elemental Alliance. Where did you come from?”

“Just a small nation. You wouldn’t know the name,” Long Chen said plainly.

Shao Yu nodded as if it was within his calculations.

“Then you are very reckless to come to the Ancient Graveyard on your own. Don’t you know how dangerous that place is? I wouldn’t have come here without allies.” Shao Yu then pointed at the several fierce-looking people that were his allies. Long Chen assumed that Shao Yu was the only talkative one in their group.

Just then, the Divine Wind faction and the Thunder Demon faction each sent someone to the front. Long Chen continued to observe them. The Thunder Demon faction had sent a middle-aged man and a youth. The middle-aged man was wearing a purple brocade embroidered with several lightning beasts. The man was bulky like Lei Zhen, but he was several times stronger! He had short hair and deep, purple eyes. Long Chen also noticed sparks of blue lightning in the man’s eyes, as if the heavens’ lightning was all contained within them.

The man squinted, and the pressure coming off him was more barbaric and stronger than the five patriarchs of the Five Element Alliance.

But Long Chen was confused by the youth at his side. If the middle-aged man was the patriarch of the Thunder clan, then the youth would be the patriarch of the Demon clan. How is he the patriarch if he’s so young?

Long Chen then realized he was wrong.

Even though the man looked young, his eyes were like dark, bottomless pits that could make someone unconscious. Long Chen realized that the youth was not as weak as he had thought.

The youth gave off a bizarre impression. His face was pale and looked sickly. He didn’t look as strong as the patriarch of the Thunder clan, but Long Chen felt a primal fear coming from his heart when he looked at the youth. The youth stood casually, but the world somehow appeared to revolve around him, as if he could control everything.
