1549 Chapter 1549 Disparity
"Whooosh."
In a split-second, one figure after another appeared from the arched door under the gaze of the crowd.
Those cultivators had obviously just ended a fierce battle. Some of them looked exhausted, some of them were covered in blood, and some of them had incomplete bodies. Just like when they first entered this space not long ago, all of them held weapons in their hands, their faces full of vigilance, as if they were ready to fight at any moment.
"Junior Sister Mi!"
"Senior Brother Zhang!"
"..."
After a while, waves of shouts came from the crowd. Many people shot towards that direction. It was obvious that they had discovered their fellow sect members from the group of figures that had just entered.
When the cultivators sensed the situation in this space, they couldn't help but be stunned.
Soon after, after realizing that there was no danger in this place, everyone's expressions couldn't help but relax. Looking at their fellow sect members who were running over, they were all wild with joy.
Even though they were only acquaintances in the sect, at this moment, after surviving a calamity, they were reunited once again. Excitement surged uncontrollably from the bottom of their hearts. After experiencing the dangers of being surrounded by killing intent, they knew very well how rare it was to be able to live to see each other here.
For a time, all sorts of excited voices rang out in the palace.
After a long while, regardless of whether it was the cultivators who had been here for a while or the people who had just entered, they finally calmed down a little.
After sizing each other up for a moment, both sides were stunned.
"Senior brother Guo, why are there so few of you?"
A True Martial Immortal Sect disciple who entered first couldn't help but ask.
Right now, the arched door had already disappeared, but the number of cultivators that had appeared from the arched door was actually less than a thousand. Compared to the four thousand of them, it was indeed pitifully small, not even half of them. Could it be that the passageway was even more dangerous than the one they had passed through?
"Yeah, there are only eight hundred people who came here? What about the others, are they all dead? "
"Impossible, our tunnel only has a few tens of thousands of people, but the other tunnels each have more than a hundred thousand people."
"More than a hundred thousand people went in, but so few survived?"
"..."
The rest of the people were also extremely surprised.
"Sigh, don't mention it."
The black-clothed man who was addressed as' Senior Brother Guo 'smiled bitterly. "Although there were more than a hundred thousand people who entered our passage, they were blocked by a gigantic stone monster halfway through."
"After fighting with it for a long time, although we succeeded in killing it in the end, only half of the cultivators who entered the 'Beginner Immortal Encyclopedia' alive were left. After that, we encountered all sorts of monsters on the stairs and in the Nine Stage Palace. Our numbers also continued to decrease, and in the end, only eight hundred or so survived!"
"…"
When the hundreds of cultivators who had just entered this space heard this, their faces were filled with bitterness. Some of them couldn't help but burst into tears. It seemed that their close friends and family had died on the way here.
The disciples of the True Martial Immortal Sect looked at each other in dismay. A storm was brewing in their chests.
Half of the hundred thousand people, that was fifty to sixty thousand people, had died in the passageway. This was a staggering number. The Giant Rock Monster that they encountered was probably not weaker than the Giant Black Tree. According to the death ratio, if they really fought with the Giant Black Tree in the passageway, wouldn't the tens of thousands of people who entered the passageway be completely annihilated?
"What about you guys?"
Senior Brother Guo glanced around, "I took a look, there are more than four thousand people alive in this passage, five times more than us, but it's less dangerous?"
The other cultivators who had just entered also looked at their fellow sect members who had arrived first. They were puzzled and curious.
"Our passage is also very dangerous."
The True Martial Immortal Sect disciple sighed, "When we first entered, we encountered a black tree that blocked the entire passage, but …" However … "At this point, the True Martial Immortal Sect disciple looked rather awkward. He coughed twice and said," We only lost about a thousand people there. "
"A thousand people? How is this possible? "
"How did you do it?"
"You must be joking!"
"..."
Hearing this, the cultivators from the various sects who had just entered could not believe their ears. They immediately started shouting at the same time, their expressions filled with shock.
Fifty to sixty thousand people had died in his passage, but only a thousand had died in theirs.
The difference was too great!
The disparity was unbelievable, especially since there were only a few tens of thousands of cultivators who had entered the passageway. Compared to the fifty to sixty thousand deaths, the price of a thousand people was negligible. Passing through the passageway with such a small loss was simply unimaginable.
"This..." This... "
The True Martial Immortal Sect disciple was stuttering, while the other cultivators from the True Martial Immortal Sect and the Purple Cloud Sword Sect also had embarrassed expressions.
When they saw their expressions, the cultivators who had come later were even more surprised.
"How could they still have the face to say such a shameful thing!"
A sneer rang out. The one who spoke was Mei Xuan from the Spring Dragon's Immortal Sect. Amongst the eight hundred cultivators who had just entered, there were also many who came from the Spring Dragon's Immortal Sect.
Attracting everyone's attention, the ridicule in Mei Xuan's eyes became even stronger. She did not care about the ugly expressions of the cultivators from the True Martial Immortal Sect and the Purple Cloud Sword Sect, "Our Junior Brother Gu Ying of the Spring Dragon Immortal Sect, used his own strength to absorb the power of the giant black tree and opened the entrance passage, allowing tens of thousands of people to enter the 'Beginning Immortal Encyclopedia' without any effort."
"After that, Junior Brother Gu completely suppressed that ferocious plant creature in the ninth layer of space, reducing the casualties of the various sects to a minimum. However, it's fine if the people from the True Martial Immortal Sect and the Purple Cloud Sword Sect aren't grateful, but they actually want to gather a crowd to snatch the treasures on Junior Brother Gu Ying's body. They are truly shameless to the extreme!"
"There's such a thing?"
"Absorbing the power of the monster in the entrance passage by himself? This... That's impossible, right? "
"The people from the True Martial Immortal Sect and the Purple Cloud Sword Sect are actually so ungrateful?"
"..."
The cultivators from the various sects who had just arrived all cried out in alarm, their hearts filled with indescribable shock.
What Mei Xuan had said was indeed extremely inconceivable. However, looking at the expressions of the cultivators from the True Martial Immortal Sect and the Purple Cloud Sword Sect, everyone knew that what she said was probably true.
To be able to do such a thing, it was truly despicable.
However, at the same time that they were looking down on him, everyone was extremely surprised by the cultivator called "Gu Ying". They were extremely clear on how terrifying the monster guarding the entrance was, and that Gu Ying was actually able to absorb its power and open up a path, allowing tens of thousands of people to enter the "Beginning Immortal Encyclopedia" unscathed. This was simply a miracle. If there were such people among them, how could they have paid such a heavy price in the entrance passage?
