"Today is the day of the competition between the nine clans. You want to start a war before entering the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss? Are you looking down on the Saint's authority?" High up in the sky, the white-robed old man spoke in a dignified voice.
"We dare not!" Xue Xing quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at the Saint.
Yan Wuzun and Lieyan Jiufeng also lowered their heads, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.
When Nie Tian saw this scene, he couldn't help but wonder, "Who is this white-robed old man? Even Lieyan Jiufeng is so respectful?"
He knew Lieyan Jiufeng's character very well. The fact that the latter could show such respect proved that the white-robed old man's identity was not to be underestimated.
"Ninth Princess, who is this Saint?" Nie Tian quietly came to Mu Xi's side and couldn't help but ask.
Mu Xi looked back at Nie Tian and seemed a little impatient, but still said, "This is Lord Saint of the nine ancient clans. He is the arbiter jointly elected by the nine ancient clans. He does not belong to the nine ancient clans, but his status and position are higher than the nine ancient clans' patriarchs!
"Lord Saint has the qualifications to intervene in any matter that happens between the nine ancient clans. He can also make the final decision."
When Nie Tian heard Mu Xi's words, he couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect this white-robed old man's status to be so high.
The Saint of the nine ancient clans, this identity was a little interesting.
The white-robed old man's status was higher than the nine ancient clans' patriarchs. It was no wonder that when he appeared, everyone looked at him with reverence.
At this time, the sky above the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss was filled with people, but there was not the slightest sound. The entire place was deathly silent.
This kind of atmosphere set off the majesty of the nine ancient clans' Saint.
Nie Tian looked at the Saint, waiting for him to speak.
The Saint swept his gaze across the crowd, wanting to say something, but he didn't. After a moment of silence, he said loudly, "This old man, as the Saint, announces that the competition between the nine ancient clans has officially begun!"
Everyone participating in the Battle of the Nine Clans knew the rules. Thus, the Saint Adjudicator did not waste any time and directly announced the start of the battle.
However, when he finished speaking, the crowd was stunned for a moment. Strange expressions appeared on their faces, and they began to whisper to each other.
"How strange. Why didn't Lord Saint talk about the Nine Dawn Stele this time?" Mu Xi's delicate face was filled with doubt. She couldn't help but mutter.
"Nine Dawn Stele?" Nie Tian heard Mu Xi's muttering and couldn't help but ask, "What's that?"
Mu Xi glanced at Nie Tian again with an impatient expression, but she still said, "The Nine Dawn Stele is an abyss stabilizing stone in the Myriad Level Devil Abyss. When the Nine Dawn Stele is activated, it will resonate with the Myriad Level Devil Abyss. Primordial totems will appear in the abyss."
"However, for millions of years, there has only been one person who has triggered the Nine Li Stele in the Nine Li Demon Region, and that was the Emperor of the Underworld of the Ancient Ming Clan."
"Rumor has it that the person capable of activating the Nine Li Stele is the person capable of changing the fate of the Ancient Era's Nine Clans."
"The last time the Underworld Emperor activated the Nine Li Stele, he almost led the Ancient Era's Nine Clans to destruction."
"Lord Saint believes that the next person to trigger the Nine Li Stele will lead the Ancient Era's Nine Clans to glory."
"However, for hundreds of thousands of years, no one has been able to trigger the Nine Li Stele among the Ancient Era's Nine Clans."
"In the past, Lord Saint would always talk about the Nine Li Stele and encourage the Ancient Era's Nine Li Stele to trigger it."
"However, he didn't mention the Nine Li Stele this time. Instead, he directly announced the start of the Competition of the Nine Clans. It's very strange."
Mu Xi couldn't help but sigh. "Perhaps Lord Saint has already given up and doesn't hold any hope for the Ancient Era's Nine Li Stele. That's why he didn't mention the Nine Li Stele."
After saying that, Mu Xi couldn't help shaking her head. Her expression was very ugly.
She originally had the ambition to challenge the Nine Dawn Stone Stele. However, the attitude of the Lord Saint Arbiter had caused her to become disheartened.
She knew that every time the Competition of the Nine Clans began, Lord Saint would secretly pay attention to the participants with talent. Then, he would evaluate whether or not those people had the potential to trigger the Nine Li Stele.
But this time, Lord Saint didn't mention the Nine Li Stele at all. He clearly felt that it was impossible for someone to trigger the Nine Li Stele this time.
Even Lord Saint had given up. How could Mu Xi not be disappointed?
Nie Tian faintly smiled after hearing Mu Xi's words. He didn't think too much about it.
According to Mu Xi, the Nine Li Stele was the foundation stone of the Ten Thousand Degree Devil Abyss. Furthermore, from a certain perspective, it hinted at the fate of the Ancient Era's Nine Li Stele. It was extremely mysterious.
However, that was the matter of the Ancient Era's Nine Clans. It had nothing to do with Nie Tian.
He had only come to the Nine Li Devil Region to fulfill his promise. In the end, he was just an outsider. So the Nine Li Stele had nothing to do with him.
"That's strange. Why didn't Lord Saint say anything about the Nine Li Stele?" At this time, Xue Xing, who had been stunned for a long time, finally couldn't bear it anymore and said unhappily.
"Lord Saint didn't say anything about the Nine Li Stele. He must be too disappointed in us." Mu Xi muttered with a disappointed expression.
"This time, I, Yan Wuzun, will be the one to trigger the Nine Li Stele. Lord Saint, watch carefully." Yan Wuzun was very confident and nodded heavily.
"You think a piece of trash from the Fire Elf Clan is worthy?" Xue Xing sneered and turned to leave.
Yan Wuzun's expression was extremely ugly, but he didn't say anything. His figure flashed and he directly left, preparing to enter the Ten Thousand Degree Devil Abyss.
Lieyan Jiufeng's expression was very strange. He muttered, "The Nine Li Stele, is it? I really want to see what this stone that determines the fate of the Nine Clans looks like. "
When Mu Xi heard Lieyan Jiufeng's words, her eyes trembled. She looked at the latter and saw the ambition in his eyes.
It was obvious that Lieyan Jiufeng wanted to use the Nine Li Stele.
Mu Xi frowned and looked at Lieyan Jiufeng with her deep blue eyes. She thought, "The last person to trigger the Nine Li Stele was from the Ancient Ming Clan. This guy is also from the Ancient Ming Clan. Moreover, there is a very strange aura in his body. Maybe he really can trigger the Nine Li Stele! "
Mu Xi thought so in his heart, his eyes couldn't help but reveal a blazing expression.
At this time, in the sky, the Saint was preparing to leave, but his eyes suddenly seemed to have discovered something. He suddenly turned around and locked his eyes on a silver-haired young man.
"This young man, why is his body …" The Saint stared at the silver-haired young man with a strange expression. His expression changed rapidly and in the end, he actually froze.
"Hmm? What's wrong with this old man? Why is he looking at me like that? "Below, Nie Tian frowned and thought to himself.
The person the Saint had locked his eyes on was none other than Nie Tian!
