Chapter 1538 - Cloud End Immortal Barrier

And then, just as he had expected, the black tree was indeed shrinking.

Although the shrinking speed was extremely slow, once everyone focused all of their attention on it, they could still easily notice the change.

As long as the countless tree roots no longer blocked the entire passageway, they would be able to slip past the edges of the passage.

After realizing this, the tens of thousands of cultivators in the tunnel were all very excited.

Time flew. Everyone took pills from time to time to replenish their lost Tian Yuan. No matter which sect the Heavenly Monarch came from, he had already made sufficient preparations before setting out with many other healing or recovery pills. He did not need to worry about his pills running out in the near future.

Unknowingly, the giant tree had already shrunk to nearly twice its original size. Even if it were to extend its longest whiskers to their limits, it would still only be able to touch the side wall of the tunnel.

As long as they shrank another ten meters, they would be able to see a safe zone on both sides of the passage.

They had already discovered that the tree was shrinking faster and faster. Before long, everyone would be able to pass through the tunnel and arrive at the Immortal ruins within.

In their excitement, everyone's gaze swept across the figure at the bottom of the tree from time to time. Their hearts were filled with emotion.

All those fourth-grade, fifth-grade, sixth-grade, and even peak sixth-grade Heavenly Lords were helpless against the black tree. However, in the end, a third-grade Heavenly Lord had opened a path for them to enter the "Beginning Immortal Summoning". Before entering this passage, no one had expected such a situation to occur.

"The reason why that tree can shrink is because Gu Ying is absorbing its power."

A white clothed man with a slightly effeminate expression narrowed his eyes and spoke slowly, "No matter how strong a third grade Heavenly Lord's flesh body is, it is impossible for it to contain such boundless strength. On Gu Ying's body, there must be some treasure that can store a large amount of power, so that it could store such a large amount of power for itself. "

The dozen or so cultivators by the side subconsciously nodded their heads.

They had long since thought of this possibility. Only by doing this could they explain the unforeseen event that occurred in front of their eyes. The more they understood the reason, the greater the envy and jealousy of Tang Huan that many cultivators felt from the bottom of their hearts.

The huge black tree was brutal and ruthless. Its might overflowed into the heavens and it seemed as if it did not care about the ten thousand heavenly lords. The majesty and power it contained had already been experienced by everyone. If such a terrifying power were to be completely refined by one person, how terrifying would its cultivation and strength be?

In the blink of an eye, everyone looked at each other, a strange look flashing across their eyes.

However, Tang Huan, who was sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the tree, was still as motionless as a boulder. No matter whether it was the waves of sound coming from the crowd, or the cries of the trees or the hissing of the tree roots, none of them were able to disturb him.

The black tree's power continuously flowed from the roots into Tang Huan's body, and then into the cave.

As time passed, Tang Huan absorbed more and more energy. Initially, the energy was like a small trickle that flowed slowly, but now it had turned into a surging and roaring river, with the force of a landslide. It flowed for a thousand miles in a single go, and the resistance from the giant tree became weaker and weaker.

At the same time, he channeled all of his energy into the spatial ring of the Limitless Sword Formation, transmitting all the energy that he had gathered to different parts of the spatial cave. Then, he merged it bit by bit, trying to restore the damaged areas.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the tree started to shrink more and more.

"..."

"It's really fortunate to have Gu Ying, if not, who knows how long we would have to wait to think of a way to safely pass through this passage."

"I wonder how the other eight sects' cultivators are doing?" Have they passed safely? "

"It's probably very difficult, isn't it? After all, it is impossible for a freak like Gu Ying to appear in every single tunnel, and she can even absorb such a huge amount of power. "

"That's hard to say. Those who entered the tunnels were the most powerful Celestial Lords from the various great sects. Many people carried precious treasures of their own sects with them. Just like our Senior Sister Hua Qian Shuang has brought along our sect's' Cloud's End Immortal Barrier ', which is a treasure used for self-defense. "

"..."

The gap between the giant tree and the side wall of the passageway became increasingly large. Everyone's hearts were filled with anticipation as they forcefully restrained the impulse to immediately pass through the open space on both sides. At the same time, everyone was also extremely curious about the situation behind the other eight arches.

Each of the nine Void Gates definitely contained a great danger behind them.

There were more cultivators in the other eight passageways than in this passageway that only had tens of thousands of cultivators inside. On average, each passageway had more than a hundred thousand people. Although numbers were great, if they were to encounter a monster like the black tree, it would be useless no matter how many people there were.

Of course, within the top ten sects, there were countless treasures. If there were people like "Gu Ying" who carried powerful treasures with them, it would not be impossible for them to pass through this passage first.

At the thought of this, many cultivators became anxious.

If the cultivators from the other passages had entered the "Beginning Immortal Enchantment Technique" earlier, the newcomers would probably only be able to pick up the leftovers and eat them. All the good stuff would have fallen into the hands of others.

"Everyone, it's about time. We can go now!"

After a long while, a burly man could no longer suppress the strong impulse in his chest and shot forward. At this moment, the gap on the right side of the giant tree was more than ten meters long. As long as he was careful not to get too close to the roots, he could easily pass through.

"Hurry up! "Hurry up!"

"Haha, we've finally reached this point. Everyone, let's hurry up."

"Don't worry, we'll wait a bit longer."

"..."

As soon as the burly man moved, the other cultivators that were eager to give it a try could no longer hold their breath and rushed forward. In just a few breaths of time, the tall and sturdy man at the front and the others had rushed past the sides of the giant tree.

The giant black tree was like an ancient beast that had been completely enraged. Its roots were wildly waving about, as if it wanted to wrap itself around the figures on both sides and completely crush them. However, it was a pity that even though it extended its roots to the furthest end, it was still nearly ten meters away from the side of the passageway, and completely touched the body of the cultivator that passed by.

Seeing this, many of the cultivators became extremely excited, as more and more Heavenly Lords rushed to act.

As for Tang Huan, who was sitting cross-legged like a sculpture at the bottom of the huge black tree, at this time, had already been completely ignored by the other cultivators, and none of them could see him clearly.
