Chapter 400 Inventory
When Gongsun Yun saw that Qin Ziling was also there and had become a master of Qi Refining, a hint of surprise and astonishment flashed in his eyes.
Qin Ziling was also a little surprised to see Gongsun Yun was there too.
"Greetings, Uncle Master Gongsun." Qin Ziling stepped forward and bowed.
"In such a dangerous environment, not only did you manage to come out alive, but you also made a breakthrough in your cultivation. It seems that you must have had a great opportunity in there!" Gongsun Yun nodded and said.
As he spoke, Gongsun Yun deliberately glanced at the storage ring on Qin Ziling's hand.
Qin Ziling smiled without comment, but he felt a little awe-inspiring in his heart.
Before entering the small barrier, his strength and eyesight were much worse. Even if Gongsun Yun did not deliberately restrain his aura, he would not be able to measure his true cultivation level.
But now, not only has his strength leapt forward, but he has also personally witnessed a sixth-grade upper-level exotic beast transcending tribulation in the small barrier.
So when he saw Gongsun Yun again, he was able to confirm that the strength of Gongsun Yun's aura was at the same level as that of a sixth-grade upper-level exotic beast.
This also means that Gongsun Yun should be a great master.
"Gongsun Yun is the elder sent by Tianyan Sect to monitor the Great Qi State. Since he is a Great Mystical Master, it seems that there is a high probability that there are Jindan powerhouses in Tianyan Sect. I just don't know how many there are?" Qin Ziling thought to himself.
Gongsun Yun naturally didn't know that Qin Ziling was actually speculating about how many Jindan ancestors there were in the Tianyan Sect. When he saw that Qin Ziling didn't take the initiative to offer the storage ring to him for a look, his brows inadvertently frowned.
Soon, all twenty-five survivors walked out of the passage.
Lai Yi Nuan and the other four persisted for a while, but when they saw that no one else came out, they withdrew.
After the five mystics withdrew their hands, the passage quickly closed, leaving only spider-web-like cracks, and these spider-web-like cracks seemed to be gradually disappearing.
Lai Yinuan looked much more tired than the other four masters. His face, which used to be rosy and shiny, now had skin like cracked old tree bark. Not only was it dark in color, but it also had deep wrinkles all over it, making him look particularly old.
"Teacher, how are you?" Qin Ziling hurried forward to help him.
Lai Yi Nuan waved his hand and said, "I am a master after all. I am just a little weak. I don't need your support."
After saying that, Lai Yi Nuan looked at Qin Ziling with a slightly bright gaze and said, "You actually broke through in the small barrier!"
"Thanks to the teacher!" Qin Ziling bowed.
"What kind of blessing can a master have?" Lai Yi Nuan laughed at himself, and then said: "But you, not only were able to escape, but you also broke through. It seems that you are a lucky person."
After saying that, Lai Yi Nuan glanced at Ma Wude and the others, and saw that a hundred people went in, but only ten, including Qin Ziling, came out. Although this was expected, he still felt a little uncomfortable. He reluctantly nodded to everyone and said, "You have all worked hard. Go sit on the spaceship and rest. I will count your gains later and reward you according to your merits."
As he spoke, Lai Yi Nuan had already released the spaceship.
Everyone boarded the spaceship, and Qin Ziling followed suit.
Lai Yi Nuan and Supervisor Gongsun Yun did not board the spaceship. Instead, they stood side by side with their hands behind their backs, looking at the people from the four major sects.
According to regulations, although the four major sects are qualified to send people in independently, one-fifth of the Lei Xun Stone they harvest must be handed over to the Tian Yan Sect.
The people from the four major sects had different expressions.
Especially on the Danxia Palace side, the female master who took action, and those who secretly participated in the Danxia Palace and sent people to monitor the harvest, all had grim and ugly faces.
Among the four major sects, Danxia Palace is the worst.
Fifty people went in, but only two came out. The loss ratio reached twenty-five to one, far exceeding a narrow escape from death.
Among the crowd, the one with the ugliest expression was a scholar.
This scholar was the chief aide to the prince, whom the prince called "Sir" and said had a 50-50 success rate in quenching thunder.
This time he came on behalf of the prince to monitor the harvest, but after waiting for a long time, he found that none of the ten people sent by the prince in the name of Danxia Palace and Lingyun Palace came out.
Among these ten people, eight are intermediate masters, and three of them have almost reached the threshold of grand masters. They are just waiting to be helped to break through and become grand masters after they come out. This is also the condition the prince gave them.
Originally, the prince and the scholar had calculated that if they sent out such a powerful lineup, at least one or two of them would be able to come out alive, no matter how bad the situation was. But now the whole army has been wiped out!
This should make the scholar look good!
Gongsun Yun was the supervisor of all the major sects in the Great Qi State. He knew the insider trading of the four major sects best. When he saw that all the people in the Prince's Mansion were wiped out and only two people were left in the Danxia Palace, he frowned slightly and then returned to normal.
"Fellow Daoist Pan, please come to Danxia Palace first." Lai Yinuan said.
The female master of Danxia Palace who activated the formation nodded with a gloomy face, then walked forward with two disciples and ordered them to take out all the Leixun stones in the storage ring.
The two of them took out the Lei Xun Stone from the storage ring as ordered.
One of them was a Leixun stone the size of just two pigeon eggs, and one could vaguely see a single streak of lightning inside.
The other person was in a slightly better condition and took out two pieces of Leixun stone as big as eggs.
"Is that all?" Master Pan Xuan asked with a sullen face and eyes as sharp as knives, as if he wanted to kill these two disciples who had managed to escape and brought the Lei Xunshi with them.
"That's all!" the two masters replied, their hearts full of grievance and indignation, but they dared not show it, and instead acted timidly on purpose.
Master Pan Xuan snorted coldly, then took the storage rings from the two people's hands and directly wiped off the marks on them. She glanced at them with her divine sense, and then her face darkened. Without any movement from her, the two storage rings slowly floated towards Lai Yi Nuan.
Lai Yi Nuan took it and glanced at it, then handed it to Gongsun Yun . Gongsun Yun also glanced at it, then returned the storage ring to Master Pan Xuan.
"Master Pan Xuan, you should keep these four Lei Xun stones in your Danxia Palace." Lai Yinuan said sympathetically.
Although Leixun Stone is rare and valuable, how can just four small pieces be worth the lives of so many masters?
It's just that in this world, the strong are respected and the weak are preyed upon by the strong. The strong want to become stronger and they don't care about the lives of the weak.
But no matter how much they didn't care, they were still disciples of their own sect, and were related to the rise and fall and development of the sect. They were recruited at great expense, and were completely different from those forcibly recruited from all over the place by the Tianyan Sect.
This amount of gain and the mortality rate are totally disproportionate.
Master Pan Xuan merely nodded with a gloomy face, and without even a word of thanks to Lai Yiran for his kindness in exempting Danxia Palace from paying its share, he led his men straight into the air and left.
