Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1923 Entering

Finally, after waiting for so long, the day that the Ethereal Valley would open drew near.

The valley was at the bottom of the Ethereal Mountain, which was the holy land of the spiritual race.Since it was very important and sacred, it was being guarded by the parliament.

The parliament was comprised of the patriarch of the spiritual race and twelve other elders. It wasconsidered the highest authority in the entire spiritual race. Compared to the Shura Race that washeavily submissive to the royal family—as well as the human race that had several conflicting sectsand clans—the spiritual race was seen to be the most unified one. In fact, all major decisions thatwould likely affect the future of the race would be voted upon by the parliament. Even the patriarchdid not have the power to overturn what the parliament had decided.

At this moment, the teams formed by the five largest clans of the spiritual race were alreadyprepared to set out and enter the Ethereal Valley.

Aside from the Wankong Clan, the other four greatest clans included the Lingji Clan, the Xiayu Clan,the Bilong Clan, and the Hongling Clan.

They were actually the five greatest tribes of the spiritual race that had existed since ancient times.The most powerful one among them was the Lingji Clan, who originated from a famous andpowerful matriarchal tribe. Although the disparity in terms of gender was mitigated upon theestablishment of the clan, they still kept its matriarchal system. All their previous leaders werewomen, and most of their warriors were female.

The Hongling Clan was second to the Lingji Clan in terms of overall power. However, compared tothe other four great clans, it possessed the longest history. It also had abundant resources andseveral talented disciples.

On the other hand, the Xiayu Clan and the Bilong Clan were about equal in strength.

Lastly, was the weakest among the five—the Wankong Clan.

Nonetheless, they still deserved to be a part of the five greatest clans due to their superb medicalskills that no one in the spiritual race could match. If it wasn't for this, the parliament might havealready expelled them from the five greatest clans, especially because of its recent decline.However, if the Wankong Clan could not replace a way to stop their decline, the parliament mighteventually consider removing their status and looking for a more deserving clan.

Three days later, the teams of the five clans gathered at the foot of the Ethereal Mountain beforethey set out to the Ethereal Valley.

Interestingly, it seemed that no one knew what the specific requirements of entering the valleywere. It was as though the valley had its own mind that could decide who could only enter. Thosewho were judged as unqualified wouldn't be able to pass through even if they had strong spiritualroots. However, if one was allowed to enter, he would not replace any difficulty of getting inside at all.Since then, it had been a puzzle to the members of the spiritual race how the Ethereal Valleydecided to grant passage to its visitors.

Moreover, some areas inside the valley were restricted. One could only explore them if he had acertain level of attribute of the spiritual root. It meant that even if one tried his hardest to break intothe restricted areas, he would have no chance of succeeding if he did not meet the requirements.This was the main reason why the Wankong Clan extremely valued Rocky. As the chosen one with aspiritual root with five attributes, he had high chances of getting into every restricted area in theEthereal Valley.

Being the young master of the Wankong Clan, Alex was tasked to lead her clan's team. Her spiritualroot was at the second grade of the Earth Stage, which was actually one of the best in their entireclan. However, for some unknown reason, she still remained as a Spiritual King and failed to breakthrough to the Emperor Realm.

Aside from Alex, the strongest members in their team were Jeffrey, who was at the premium stageof the Emperor Realm, and three medium-stage Spiritual Emperors. These Spiritual Emperors hadalready entered the valley several times back then. Hence, their only role in this quest was to escortthe team and protect the younger members from impending dangers.

At the same time, the four other clans also had veteran Spiritual Emperors in their teams that weretasked to ensure the safety of the rest of their members.

As soon as the teams arrived at the entrance of the Ethereal Valley, they were welcomed by an elderand other Spiritual Emperors from the parliament.

"The Ethereal Valley is going to be open for a whole month. Everyone that can enter the valley canfreely explore the place. However, be warned that some parts of the valley can only be accessed bythose who possess a spiritual root of the required level and attributes. Therefore, if you replaceyourselves unable to enter these areas, it is wise not to forcibly break into them. Otherwise, beprepared to suffer the consequences of your actions,” the elder sternly warned.

"Now, if everyone is ready, go and begin the quest! The Lingji Clan will go first," the elder declaredright after he glanced at all the participants in the area.

Upon hearing this, the warriors of the Lingji Clan walked towards the entrance of the Ethereal Valley.As soon as they stepped inside, some of their members were instantly teleported back outside. Itmeant that these people were deemed unqualified by the valley, and they would not be able to goinside no matter what they did.

After a few minutes, all of the team members of the Lingji Clan had finally tried to enter the valley.About a third of them were sent back, while the rest were able to successfully get inside.

Then, it was the turn of the Hongling Clan to enter the valley.

Their warriors had also tried getting in. The number of those who were able to get in was quiteclose to that of the Lingji Clan. Thus, both clans had about thirty warriors that had successfullygotten in.

Next in line were the warriors of the Xiayu Clan and the Bilong Clan.

Compared to the first two clans, the Xiayu Clan and Bilong Clan had fewer warriors who managed tomake it inside the valley. Nonetheless, the gap in number was not too big.

Finally, it was the turn of the Wankong Clan's team.

"Spiritual Emperor Jeffrey, we'll go after you!" Alex told Jeffrey, signaling the Spiritual Emperor tolead the way.

Jeffrey immediately nodded and headed to the entrance of the Ethereal Valley.

The moment he got in, the other Spiritual Emperors of the Wankong Clan also followed behind him.After that, Alex ordered the other members of the team to go inside one after another. However,this was where things got a bit frustrating. Most of the members of their team were immediatelysent back, and compared to the four clans, only a few managed to enter the valley successfully.Seeing this, Alex couldn't help but show a hint of depression on her face. Although she had alreadyexpected that something like this would likely happen, she still felt rather upset upon witnessing theharsh reality.

At the same time, even the elder and the Spiritual Emperors from the parliament just shook theirheads and sighed as they expressed their disappointment.

"I guess this is their last chance. If the Wankong Clan cannot gain anything from this quest, I'mafraid we'll have to consider removing them from the five greatest clans of our race," the elder saidin a low and gloomy voice.

"Who knew that they could fall to such an extent? I can still vividly remember the days wheneveryone admired them because of their outstanding medical skills. But look at how thingssuddenly changed. It seems that not everything can last forever,” a senior Spiritual Emperor of theparliament chimed in and remarked with a sigh.

The other Spiritual Emperors just kept quiet but still nodded in agreement.

Almost all of the warriors from the Wankong Clan had already tried getting in, but only a dozenwere able to successfully enter. At this moment, the only ones left who would try their luck wereAlex, Rocky, and Vivian.

"All right, let's go." After heaving a deep breath, Alex called for Rocky and Vivian, then headedtowards the entrance first.

Rocky and Vivian followed her closely, and the rest of the members who failed to get in justwatched them carefully.

Then, the moment Rocky and Vivian passed through the entrance, they immediately sensed aspecial warmth and energy that enveloped them.

At the same time, the God-killing Sword in Rocky's Magic Spiritual Space suddenly vibrated asthough it was responding to something inside the valley.
