Chapter 302 – The Devil Territory! The Nether Territory! The Demon Territory! (1/2)
There was a mountain 500km away from Ancient Domain City, and the mountain towered into the clouds. When looked at from afar, the mountain seemed like a pillar the supported the heavens and the earth! It was exactly Heaven Tower Mountain that was renowned throughout Profounder Continent! It was also the barrier between the devil territory and the southern territory. If it wasn’t for this mountain, then the southern territory wouldn’t belong to humans anymore!
Of course, the true barrier to the young men of the devil territory wasn’t the mountain, and it was the restriction set up on the mountain! There was a mysterious and formidable restriction on this mountain. The restriction was a type of force that caused one to endure a greater gravitational force the greater one’s cultivation was! For example, if experts at the First Heaven Realm ascended this mountain, then they had to endure 10 times the ordinary strength of gravity. But if it were King Realm experts instead, then they would endure 30 times the normal strength of gravity! Moreover, the greater their cultivations, the stronger the force of gravity would be….
However, if the youths of the devil race were able to endure the gravity on Heaven Tower Mountain, surmount it, and arrive at the southern territory, then they would obtain extraordinarily great benefits! Because after they endured the gravity, which was multiples times stronger than normal, no matter if it was their own strength or mental state, it would obtain great improvement because of this!
The Devil Race was a race that respected the strong. Strength was equivalent to life to the youths of the devil race! So long as they could become stronger, then they could give everything up, including their lives! So, countless youths of the devil race would try successively to climb over Heaven Tower Mountain every single time that the fight for Karmic Luck at the Hidden Dragon PaG.o.da was held! However, only a pitiable few were actually able to climb over Heaven Tower Mountain!
At this moment, a few hundred youths with tall and robust figures were walking step by step from the mountainside of Heaven Tower Mountain towards its peak. The appearance of these youths was extremely similar to humans, and if it wasn’t for their figures that were clearly much more robust than humans and the pair of horns that grew out of their heads, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that they were human!
There was an especially striking young man at the front of this group of youths. Why was he said to be especially striking? Because the horns on the heads of all the other youths were black, yet his horns were violet! Moreover, when the youths behind him gazed at him occasionally, all their gazes were filled with extreme respect!
Right at this moment, one of the youths walked over to the side of the violet horned youth and said, “Mo Ke, rest a little or don’t obstruct the gravity for us!”
“Yeah, Big Brother Mo Ke. If you hadn’t been helping to relieve us of the gravity we suffered, then you would have climbed over Heaven Tower Mountain a long time ago. Just forget about us, otherwise, we’ll truly become sinners of the entire devil race if we drag you down with us!”
“Just forget about us. Big Brother, go on ahead….”
The young man called Mo Ke stopped, and then he turned around to glance at them. As he gazed at their completely red eyes, Mo Ke took a deep breath and said, “How many came to climb over Heaven Tower Mountain with us this time?”
Their expressions instantly dimmed down when they heard this, and they remained silent for a moment before someone answered. “1,300 brothers!”
“What about now?” asked Mo Ke once more.
All of them lowered their heads and fell silent.
“There are only 432 now!” Mo Ke’s eyes narrowed slightly as he said, “1,300 elites of my devil race left with me, yet only 432 remain while we haven’t even arrived at Hidden Dragon PaG.o.da. If even all of you die on Heaven Tower Mountain, then it would be utterly meaningless even if I, Mo Ke, obtain the first on the Hidden Dragon List and seize countless amounts of Karmic Luck for the devil race! Your ability to arrive here is sufficient proof of the potential all of you possess. So long as all of you survive, then countless extraordinary experts would surge into appearance from my devil race in the future! However, if all of you perish, then there’ll be a gap in the cultivation of experts within our devil race for a certain period of time in the future! At that time, our devil race would be in danger!”
“We understand all of that!” The youth by Mo Ke’s side said, “However, Heaven Tower Mountain is truly too terrifying. The gravity we’re enduring now is already 46 times that of what we usually endure. If you weren’t enduring most of the gravity for us, then we would have already been unable to hold on before this 46 times of gravity. But now, we’ve only arrived at the mountainside of Heaven Tower Mountain….”
Mo Ke took a deep breath, and then he suddenly turned around to gaze at the mountain, and a wisp of a savage expression flashed in his eyes as he gazed at this mountain that shot into the clouds. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand, pointed a finger towards the peak of the mountain, and shouted furiously. “What? Why must my devil race live in such an adverse environment? Why isn’t my devil race allowed to enter the world of the humans? Why?”
The youths behind Mo Ke fell silent. They naturally understood who Mo Ke was asking these questions too, and it was naturally the extraordinary expert who’d set up these terrifying restrictions all those years ago.
The devil territory was covered in snow and ice all year round, and the weather there was extremely adverse. Because of that, most things were unable to survive there, and it caused the devil territory to have a severe lack of food!
It could be said that amongst 10 infants in the devil territory, there were at least four that would be unable to grow up. Because practically all four of them would die of starvation! It was exactly because of this that the youths of the devil territory had an extremely high regard towards martial strength. After all, if they possessed strength, then they wouldn’t have to starve to death! Under such circ.u.mstances, the youths of the devil territory would naturally do all they could to become stronger….
If the human profounders wanted to become experts for all sorts of various desires and reasons, then the devils of the devil race wanted to become experts purely for the sake of survival! This was also the reason why the strength of the devil race far surpa.s.sed the human race!
On the other hand, the one that made the devil race suffer such hards.h.i.+ps for thousands of years was naturally the extraordinary expert who set up the restrictions on Heaven Tower Mountain! The youths of the devil race naturally hated this human expert, but they couldn’t do anything about it even if they hated him. Because that extraordinary expert seemed to have left this world already….
Of course, even if he was still in this world, they would be helpless against him. Just a restriction that the extraordinary expert had created thousands of years ago had trapped their devil race until now.
The devil race hadn’t produced such an expert for the last 10,000 years!
The wind here grew stronger and stronger, and it was to the extent that these youths from the devil race were on the verge of being unable to endure it even with the formidable physical bodies they possessed!
