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

[When you walked into the room, you were stunned, because aside from you, there were exactly ten Legendary Level powerhouses here.]

[Even the Great Emperor powerhouse was among them!]

[You understood that this seemed to be the place where the strongest of the Human Race gathered.]

[So naturally, there was no need for heavy guards…]

[These Human Race powerhouses seemed to be quite old, with the youngest being over two hundred years old, and the Great Emperor powerhouse openly admitted to guarding the Demon-Subduing Pass for a millennium.]

[From their mouths, you learned the history of the Demon-Subduing Pass and the City of End under your feet.]

[The Demon-Subduing Pass did not originally exist, but was brought out from a “forbidden-level” dungeon by a top-tier Human Race powerhouse thousands of years ago.]

[After thousands of years of construction and reinforcement, this majestic city was formed, becoming the greatest reliance of the Human Race against the Demon Race.]

[The Great Emperor powerhouse looked at you and said that your current power was sufficient, and you could ask any questions. They would try to answer as best as they could.]

[You were shocked, thinking that moving the entire Demon-Subduing Pass with human strength would be impossible even for a Great Emperor level powerhouse.]

[So, you asked your first question: was the Great Emperor level the strongest in the current Great Xia Country.]

[They confirmed it for you; indeed, the Great Emperor level was the strongest power of the Human Race at present.]

[You were suspicious and felt it didn’t make sense, so you continued to ask questions.]

[Finally, they told you a secret.]

[It turned out that a thousand years ago, aside from having Great Emperor level powerhouses, the Human Race also had Saint Level and even nearly God Level powerhouses!]

[But later, for some unknown reason, all the Saint and God level powerhouses disappeared overnight.]

[No one knew where they went, nor did anyone know why they left.]

[This phenomenon not only occurred in the Great Xia Country but also in countries like America, Huangdao Country, and Australia. All the top-tier powerhouses vanished overnight!]

[Since then, whenever a powerhouse broke through to the Saint Level, they disappeared mysteriously, never to be heard of again.]

[In the past century, it was not only the Saint Level powerhouses but also the Great Emperor level powerhouses who disappeared frequently.]

[And most of their disappearance locations were on Blue Star.]

[Therefore, to be safe, all official Legendary, Great Emperor level powerhouses no longer returned to Blue Star, spending their lives guarding the Demon-Subduing Pass to protect the Human Race.]

Su Xing furrowed his brows after seeing this text.

So, the fact that the Great Emperor and Saint level powerhouses did not descend to Blue Star had such reasons behind it.

“No wonder I saw records of Saint level powerhouses in the library’s history notes… but never encountered them in simulations. So, this was the reason!”

“This also explains why the Human Race has held the Demon-Subduing Pass for thousands of years but could not hold on after over twenty years… because the top-tier powerhouses of the Human Race had all disappeared!”

Su Xing felt puzzled as to why those top-tier powerhouses had left without a word.

At that level, a powerhouse should not easily die… and all the powerhouses disappeared overnight!

This… had to be an intervention of some supernatural force.

“Besides the Demon-Subduing Pass in the Great Xia Country… America has an Endless Abyss…”

“It seems that the situation in every country is not optimistic!”

Su Xing sighed lightly, feeling somewhat worried.

“Great Emperor level powerhouses don’t stay in the real world… then if I break through to the Integration Phase, will I also disappear mysteriously?”

Su Xing’s brows furrowed as he disliked these unpredictable circumstances.

However, since he was still some way from the Integration Phase, he did not need to worry for now.

He turned his gaze to the Simulation Panel.

[You continued to ask the top-tier powerhouse seniors some more questions.]

[During this time, you learned that the Human Emperor reached the peak of the Great Emperor level hundreds of years ago and was always on the brink of advancing to the Saint level.]

[But for fear of mysteriously disappearing, leaving the Human Race without its only Great Emperor, he never broke through.]

[Next, you asked about the situation in other countries and why they didn’t come to aid the Great Xia Country.]

[As expected, you learned that aside from the Great Xia Country, each of the Twelve Domains of Blue Star had their dungeons to guard.]

[A century ago, the Endless Abyss in America had almost been breached, and as the strongest country on Blue Star, the Great Xia Country had sent two Great Emperor level powerhouses to barely hold it.]

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

[Those two Great Emperor level powerhouses from the Great Xia Country stayed in the Endless Abyss for the safety of the Human Race.]

[From these top-tier Human Race powerhouses, you learned numerous secrets.]

[But you knew that your primary task was still to strive to increase your strength.]

[Days turned into years as you persisted in your training, and in the blink of an eye, two more years passed.]

[In the twenty-third year, you successfully developed the Rebirth Pill, capable of enhancing the power of Heavenly King level powerhouses.]

[You mass-produced this elixir, and in just one year, the power of the Human Race’s Heavenly King level powerhouses increased by nearly fifty percent.]

[Some of the exceptional ones among them even broke into the Martial Emperor level.]

[In the same year, your Protective Gang Qi divine skill approached the Perfection level but had yet to take that final step.]

[Thus, two more years went by.]

[In the twenty-fifth year, the demonic beast army invaded the Demon-Subduing Pass, resulting in heavy casualties among the Human Race powerhouses. You fought with all your strength to evenly match a Legendary Level giant beast.]

[In the end, the Demon-Subduing Pass was breached. Knowing you couldn’t die so easily, as your mission was not yet complete, you retreated to the real world with several Legendary Level powerhouses, quietly awaiting the arrival of the giant beast…]

[Several months later, that giant beast, obscuring the sky and earth with a body comparable to a planet, finally arrived.]

[The last few Legendary Level powerhouses of the Great Xia Country flew into the sky, attempting to stop the beast, but unsurprisingly, they couldn’t even break through its defenses.]

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