The Broken Dao Race has only emerged for less than two years, and prodigies have sprung up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Recently, especially, they have been flocking to climb the Earth Ranking. This mysterious race has already become the topic of idle chatter and gossip over tea.
"I heard some news from a little insider source. It’s said that the Clan Leader of the Broken Dao Race is preparing to find an outstandingly gifted successor. The requirement is that the clan’s younger members must ascend the Heaven and Earth Ranking to qualify as candidates for the clan leader!"
"Your information isn’t reliable. The news I got from a remnant cultivator of an ancient god tribe is more accurate. This time, it’s said that the saintess of the Broken Dao Race is looking for a cultivation partner, and the minimum requirement for the suitor is the Heaven and Earth Ranking, which has prompted the talents within the Broken Dao Race to come out and prove themselves!"
"That’s right! I heard the same thing. It’s said that the saintess of the Broken Dao Race is extraordinarily beautiful, which has led countless young talents of the Broken Dao Race to bend over backward for her."
"What are you guys talking about? The real situation is this: A master of the Broken Dao Race, eighty thousand years ago, was betrothed to a predecessor from a powerful race. At the time, people from that powerful race didn’t know what the Broken Dao Race was, thinking it was just a joke. Later, the saintess of that major race became a prodigy on the Earth Ranking. The young master of the Broken Dao Race came to fulfill the marriage contract but was looked down upon by the saintess. Then the saintess annulled the engagement!
This enraged the young master of the Broken Dao Race, who furiously exclaimed: ’Thirty years on the east of the river, thirty years on the west, don’t bully a poor young man!’ Then with one divorce letter, he actually annulled the engagement with the saintess!
I heard the scene was extremely heated!
The other young prodigies of the Broken Dao Race, to relieve the young master’s anger, also began to climb the Heaven and Earth Ranking, all going to challenge the saintess who annulled the engagement. That saintess is quite capable; even if she is knocked down, she can climb back up the ranking. But as soon as she climbs up, another genius from the Broken Dao Race would challenge her, preventing her from staying on the ranking! Now, the saintess of that major race is almost dying of regret!"
"Ah? The story of the young master of the Broken Dao Race turned out to be so inspiring! Starting with getting a broken engagement, then rising in adversity, it’s like writing a novel! My goodness! I’m actually a bit interested in knowing what happens next! Quick, tell me! What’s the situation afterward?"
The Broken Dao Race is truly too mysterious. Everyone only hears of them but has never met them, relying only on speculation. As a result, countless bizarre versions have emerged. Now, there are at least a thousand versions circulating in the Edge Corner Airspace about the reason the Broken Dao Race suddenly dominated the Earth Ranking.
Since no one from the Broken Dao Race has come forward to clarify the rumors, they just spread independently. Everyone confidently propagates the version they believe in. As long as one person recounts the story slightly differently, there’s no correcting it afterward.
But one undeniable point is that the strength of the Broken Dao Race is beyond doubt.
No one knows how the Broken Dao Race managed it, for the Earth Ranking only accommodates two hundred prodigies, and this single race occupies fifty-one of them!
The symbol of authority and strength, the "Earth Ranking," is almost about to be renamed the "Broken Dao Ranking!"
Most importantly, so far, except for one appearance, none of the Broken Dao Race has shown themselves! Those defeated prodigies were suddenly dragged out and beaten up during secluded cultivation, unable to even see their opponent’s face, with their Dao Palace imprint changed hands!
Many prodigies felt unwilling to accept their defeat, but there was nothing they could do. Being a prodigy on the Heaven and Earth Ranking means constantly being ready for challenges, even sneak attacks are normal!
The enigmatic Broken Dao Race has subtly become a potential threat in the Edge Corner Airspace. Many races’ Earth Ranking prodigies are now on edge because of the Broken Dao Race, requiring the company of elders even for a trip to the toilet, in fear of being clubbed by someone with the surname "Po" in the lavatory.
Meanwhile, a few Dao Stones have quietly flowed into the market of the Edge Corner Airspace!

A tall young man stands there. This man has long hair, each strand rippling like a sound wave in the air, even without wind, faintly echoing a melodious string sound from the tips of his hair.
He is named Qian Yinqiu, a prodigy of the Sound Dao Race, ranked first on the Earth Ranking!
Qian Yinqiu practices the Dao of Sound, where any sound in the world can be turned into a lethal weapon by them.
The power of sound is extremely bizarre because when fighting against them, you can’t block the sound at all.
Even if you block your ears and sever your Perception of sound, every movement you make, every sweeping sound of your sleeves, every sound of your breathing, the sharp sound of your fingertips slicing through the void... all become their attacking force.
When facing the Sound Dao Race, opponents often lose not to the various soul-piercing sounds created by the Sound Dao Race but to the sounds made by their own body!
The strength of the Sound Dao Race is undeniable, and in the Edge Corner Airspace, they are an existence that many races dare not provoke. Every member of their race is extremely powerful, and Qian Yinqiu is even hailed as a once-in-ten-thousand-years genius of the Sound Dao Race!
At the age of one hundred and ninety-seven, he reached the Eternity stage of cultivation, and now, at just six hundred years old, he has already stepped into the Inquiring Dao initial stage!
Currently, he is the absolute prodigy ranked first on the Earth Ranking and possesses the capability to challenge the Heavenly Ranking!
Following Qian Yinqiu are two elders, one named Qianyin Wuchang and the other Qianyin Yazhu, both renowned experts within the Sound Dao Race, having lived for tens of thousands of years and possessing late Inquiring Dao stage strength, specifically there to protect him, preventing Qian Yinqiu from suddenly running into someone from the Broken Dao Race and losing the title of first on the Earth Ranking.
