Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Chapter 262 - 170: Secrets of Demon-Subduing Pass, The Mysterious Disappearance of a Top Expert (5k)_3

[After you entered the room, you were taken aback because, apart from you, there were ten Legendary Level powerhouses here.]

[Even that Great Emperor powerhouse was among them!]

[You realized that this seemed to be the place where the strongest of the Human Race would stay.]

[Therefore, heavy guards were naturally unnecessary...]

[These Human Race powerhouses all seemed to be of considerable age, even the youngest was over two hundred years old, and that Great Emperor powerhouse openly stated that he had been guarding Demon-Subduing Pass for a thousand years.]

[From their conversations, you learned about the origins of Demon-Subduing Pass and this city beneath your feet, known as the City of the End.]

[Demon-Subduing Pass wasn't originally there, but was brought over by a top-notch powerhouse of the Human Race from a "taboo-level" dungeon thousands of years ago.]

[Afterwards, through thousands of years of construction and fortification, there now stood this majestic city, which was also the Human Race's greatest reliance against the Demon Race.]

[The Great Emperor powerhouse looked at you and said that your strength was now sufficient, and you were free to ask questions. As long as they knew the answers, they would try their best to respond.]

[You were shocked in your heart, thinking that if even a Great Emperor Level powerhouse could not bring Demon-Subduing Pass over, then who could?]

[Thus, the first question you asked was whether the Emperor Level powerhouses were currently the strongest in the Great Xia Country.]

[To this question, they gave you an affirmative answer. Indeed, the Great Emperor Level is currently the strongest force of the Human Race.]

[You were puzzled and felt this was unreasonable, so you continued to press for answers.]

[Eventually, they told you a secret.]

[Originally, a thousand years ago, the Human Race not only had Great Emperor powerhouses, but also gave birth to even higher Saint Level and even close to God Level powerhouses!]

[But then, for some unknown reason, all the Saints and God Level powerhouses vanished overnight.]

[No one knew where they went or what had happened to them.]

[This phenomenon was not limited to the Great Xia Country but included America, Huangdao Country, Australia, and many other countries. All the top powerhouses disappeared overnight!]

[Since then, whenever a powerhouse reached the Saint Level, they would mysteriously disappear, never to be heard from again.]

[And in the recent century, not only Saints but even Great Emperor Level powerhouses began to go missing frequently.]

[Most of their disappearances took place on Blue Star.]

[Therefore, for safety, all the official Legendary and Great Emperor Level powerhouses no longer returned to Blue Star and spent their lives in Demon-Subduing Pass, guarding the Human Race.]

Su Xing's brows furrowed after reading this text.

Great Emperors, Saint Level powerhouses not descending on Blue Star, there was such a secret.

"No wonder in the historical records I saw in the library, I once came across accounts of Saint Level powerhouses... but they were never mentioned in simulations, so there was such a reason!"

"This also explains why the Human Race has been holding Demon-Subduing Pass for thousands of years but cannot hold out after more than twenty years... because all the top powerhouses of the Human Race had disappeared!"

Su Xing was somewhat puzzled as to why those top powerhouses would leave without a trace.

Powerhouses of that level shouldn't die so easily... and all of them vanished overnight!

This... was definitely an intervention of supernatural forces.

"Besides the Demon-Subduing Pass guarded by the Great Xia Country... America has an Endless Abyss..."

"It seems the situation in every country is not optimistic now!"

Su Xing sighed softly and was a bit worried.

"If Great Emperor Level powerhouses avoid staying in the real world... would I also mysteriously disappear once I breakthrough to the Body Integration Realm?"

Su Xing's brows were slightly furrowed; he disliked such unpredictable situations.

However, Su Xing was still far from reaching the Body Integration Realm, so there was no need to worry for now.

His gaze shifted to the simulation panel.

[You then asked some more questions to these top powerhouses, the seniors.]

[During the exchange, you learned that this Human Emperor had reached the peak of Emperor Level hundreds of years ago and could have broken through to Saint Level at any moment.]

[But for fear of mysteriously disappearing and thus causing the Human Race to lose its only Great Emperor, he never made the breakthrough.]

[Next, you inquired about the situations in other countries, why they don't come to aid the Great Xia Country in guarding.]

[Sure enough, you found out that besides the Great Xia Country, the entire Blue Star's Seven Countries and Twelve Domains each have their own dungeons that need guarding.]

[Even a hundred years ago, America's Endless Abyss almost broke through, and as the strongest country of Blue Star, Great Xia Country sent two Great Emperor Level powerhouses to barely hold the line.]

[Otherwise, if the Endless Abyss dungeon had been breached, the real world would have been doomed as well.]

[And those two Great Emperor powerhouses of Great Xia Country, for the safety of the Human Race, have also been guarding within the Endless Abyss ever since.]

[From the mouths of these top Human Race powerhouses, you learned quite a few secrets.]

[But you knew what you needed to do now was still to strive to improve your strength.]

[Days of cultivation passed and, in the blink of an eye, two more years had gone by.]

[In the twenty-third year, you successfully developed a Rebirth Pill that could enhance the strength of Heavenly King Level powerhouses.]

[You refined a large number of these elixirs, and in just one year, you increased the strength of the Human Race's Heavenly King Level powerhouses by nearly fifty percent.]

[And some of them even successfully broke through to Martial Emperor Level.]

[That same year, your Protective Gang Qi Divine Skill was nearing perfection, but you still refrained from taking that final step.]

[Thus, another two years passed.]

[In the twenty-fifth year, Demonic Beasts invaded Demon-Subduing Pass, and the Human Race powerhouses suffered heavy casualties. You struggled with all your might but only managed to be on par with a Legendary Level monster.]

[Eventually, Demon-Subduing Pass fell, and you knew you couldn't die so easily, your mission was not yet complete!]

[So, you retreated back to the real world with a few Legendary Level powerhouses, quietly waiting for the day the colossal beast would descend...]

[A few months later, the beast that blotted out the sky and rivaled planets in size finally descended.]

[The last few Legendary powerhouses of Great Xia Country flew out, trying to stop the beast, but as expected, they couldn't even break its defenses.]

[The beast opened its mouth and swallowed the entire Great Xia Country in one gulp.]
