<strong>Chapter 1199: Chapter 1190: Come With Me</strong>


    “Ugh!” Xiao Youer spat out a mouthful of old blood and crashed heavily to the ground, instantly creating a crater five meters in diameter and three meters deep. Xiao Youer was probably done for. The entire process took only a few seconds. Xiao Yifei saw only a sh of a figure and then a dark shadow crashed heavily to the ground. He couldn’t help but exim, “Is this the power of breaking through to the Golden Elixir Realm? So powerful!”


    Ci Xin gracefullynded and raised an eyebrow at Xiao Yifei, saying, “That one ran away. Should we give chase?”


    Only then did Xiao Yifei react as he saw Xiao Wushuang, having witnessed his father being fatally beaten, bolt away without a word. It was truly like father, like son in battle. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Wushuang had run several hundred meters away, where the woods were dense, and his figure could only be faintly seen. Xiao Yifei sighed and said, “Forget it, let him run. I’m toozy to chase.”


    Ci Xin didn’t pay any mind either. To her now, these people were just children from insignificant ns. Besides, the long-distance stepping in the air was too exhausting for someone who had just broken through the Golden Elixir Realm. She let him flee. Turning, she raised an eyebrow at the parchment on the ground, “Pick it up and follow me.”


    Having said that, she swept her sleeve and left.


    The two arrived at a clearing. Ci Xin let out a light chortle, tearing open a space rift with both hands and said, “Follow me,” then stepped sideways into it. Xiao Yifei followed Ci Xin into the space rift without much thought. In an instant, he felt a dizzying sensation, and his vision was filled with colorful halos. Instinctively, he grabbed Ci Xin’s arm. Ci Xin was momentarily stunned, but didn’t resist, and in an instant, she brought him before the Bronze Gate.


    Smoothing over the rift with her hand, Ci Xin sat down on the ground without speaking.


    Finally, Xiao Yifei had the time to carefully examine the face so simr to Qianxi’s. Though not as youthful as Qianxi, it carried a mature charm. Her chest heaved as she struggled to calm the unfamiliar True Qi within her. A deep valleyy between the two high peaks, her brows slightly furrowed, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead, making one’s imagination run wild.


    Suppressing the fire of desire in his heart, Xiao Yifei channeled a sliver of True Qi into his eyes to observe this first peak strong person to break through the Golden Elixir Realm in Huaxia. Indeed, apart from the surrounding ethereal aura, it was hard to sense any True Qi from her. Xiao Yifei enhanced the True Qi in his eyes to the utmost and discovered that Ci Xin’s entire body was covered with a light yellow energyyer, enveloping her slender limbs and torso in a muscle-like form.


    Every part of her muscles was brimming with explosive energy. “So this is the form after breaking through the Golden Elixir – so strong! If it were me, I definitely couldn’t withstand her punch.” At this thought, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but remember Xiao Youer, who had been beaten to death by her, feeling a shiver of fear.


    After some breathing adjustment, Ci Xin had recovered mostly. She opened her eyes to look at Xiao Yifei, but her tightly knitted brows showed no sign of rxing, as if a battle was raging in her heart.


    Cold sweat immediately broke out on Xiao Yifei, “Bi…Big sister, you’re not going to kill me to silence me, are you? Although little brother did not achieve much, I’ve had my share of hardship too.”


    Ci Xin’s tense expression instantly softened, and sheughed, “If I wanted to kill you, would you still be here?”


    She then collected her emotions and said with seriousness, “I brought you here to tell you a secret. A secret our family has guarded for generations.”


    “You already see this Bronze Gate, don’t you?”


    Hearing this, Xiao Yifei finally remembered the enormous structure in front of him that he hadn’t studied yet, preupied as he was with studying the woman. He then began to carefully examine the gate.


    The gate was entirely greenish in color, as its name suggested, made of bronze. It stood eight meters high and five meters wide. The header was a bronze te inscribed with strange symbols, and on the face of the door were some bizarre words that looked like text. Xiao Yifei guessed from a first nce that it was probably saying something to scare people off, like “ordinary people don’t enter; entering means death.”


    The two shutters were adorned with various figures, each with different appearances. Some looked like regr humans; others had blue faces and fangs, or various beast-like features. On the door, Xiao Yifei even discovered a creature resembling a mermaid.


    Xiao Yifei spected this could be the whimsical creation of an ancient emperor inspired by the ssic of Mountains and Seas. But the more he looked, the stranger it appeared. The clothing and adornments of these figures didn’t align with the definition of ancient attire, and there were even ones wearing spacesuits and tuxedos, which puzzled Xiao Yifei greatly.


    Surrounding the door panels were countless door nails, each as thick as an arm. At the very center were tworge door rings, emitting a slight chill.


    The entire door exuded a sense of eeriness. The structure screamed ancient craftsmanship, yet the carvings defied easy eptance. Xiao Yifei thought if this door were discovered by the world, archaeologists would probably throw in all their tools to remake them – it was simply mind-boggling.


    Looking back at Ci Xin, Xiao Yifei asked even before she could respond, “This door must be worth a lot, right?”


    Ci Xin was shocked, thinking it’s bold to even think of making money from bronzeware. If the Central Academy sent Old Master Hua to bring you to justice, wouldn’t you be blindsided?


    Then she calmly said, “The secret I want to tell you is about this door.”<fn3a8c> The rightful source is find?novel</fn3a8c>


    Ci Xin adjusted a strand of her hair and began narrating her story and secret slowly.


    In ancient times, human strength was still weak, and the natural world operated under extremely harshws. No creature could transcend thews of nature and humans were positioned at a rather awkward ce in the food chain, constantly preyed upon by higher-level species every day.


    However, the only advantage humans had was their innate wisdom. To escape the torment of their aggressors, humans began seeking the patterns of nature and founded their own cultivation methods based on their observations of these patterns. In other words, humans found ways to pursue power by harnessing thews of nature and systematically breaking through these means until powerful individuals emerged above the natural limits.


    At that time, most people’s minds were pure and untainted. After gaining power, they did not be tyrannical to dominate nature. Instead, people, seeking to avoid conflict, decided after much discussion to create a new space devoid of the survival of the fittest, a ce of absolute peace.


    Thus, the top human warriors devoted all their strength to using Space Power to create a dust-free Pure Land. Just as humanity prepared to migrate as a whole, the Earth experienced an unprecedented cataclysm. Dark clouds covered the sky, the heavens and earth crumbled; the entire Earth became shrouded in ash and fire, with the destructive force sweeping away all visible species.


    Some said it was humanity provoking the Heavenly Dao, drawing divine retribution, while others imed nature was no longer satisfied with being overridden by humans, starting a reshuffle of the Earth. Such were the varied ounts, throwing humanity into panic.


    Fortunately, the five strong warriors who opened the space together managed to protect the entrance to the Pure Land. Humanity began its greatest migration in history. But who could have foreseen, the force of nature was beyond human reach. Even the five strongest, at humanity’s peak, could not withstand such overwhelming power and soon grew exhausted.


    And there were still a small number of humans who did notplete the migration, but the five warriors were at the end of their strength, unable to offer resistance. Reluctantly, those remaining had to stay on Earth. The five warriors used their lives to forge a barrier, allowing the remaining humans to survive the catastrophe.
