The Human Giant-Chapter 281 : Open World

Even though the third choice could result in a reduced chance of death if any of them became immortals, it was the hardest to achieve by far. Not only did they need to get enough crystal energy, but they also needed to be extremely careful when making their Crystal Brains.

For Leo, Yamgo, and the two Wise Men, the third path was made slightly easier for them compared to the other immortal cultivators since they could use their crystal grapes to get enough crystal energy to reach the peak of the Crystal Brain realm. Yet there wasn't a shortcut for them to have the skills to create an identical brain that wouldn't end up killing them.

They could only take it one step at a time like everyone else. So even though the third path was possible, Yoze didn't think anyone was crazy enough to choose it. He could imagine that Leo and Yamgo would choose the first path since it was the best option by far.

As for the two Wise Men, it depended on whether or not they noticed that there was hostility between them and everyone else. If they didn't, there was a high chance they would choose the first option.

If they could sense the hostility, they would understand that the first option was unviable for them. Being forced to rely on the second option before trying the third option as a last resort.

As the four individuals made their decisions, Leo's and Yamgo's faces relaxed as they winked at Alosa before walking inside the Sect's entrance. As for the two Wise Men, their faces became grimmer and grimmer until they sighed heavily and left without saying a word.

Knowing that everyone had made their choice, Yoze didn't think too much about it and turned his attention to the Sect. Since they were heading to the fourth floor, he would be able to get a good look at the entire Sect.

If possible, he wanted to map out the entirety of the Sect in this one trip or at least a majority of it. So that he wouldn't struggle to find what he needs at a critical moment and could visit them right after to see what they offer.

"Let's go,"

After Leo, Yamgo, and the two Wise Men made their decisions, Immortal Patty controlled his sword and entered the Sect. As Yoze and Alosa passed through the entrance, they felt as if there was a thin barrier blocking their way inside, but with a bit of pressure, it let them through.

When they made it past the entrance, their pupils shrunk from shock. They suddenly found themselves outside in a large bustling city. There were thousands of people wandering the streets with quick steps as they hurried to their next location.

Some old men and women were sitting outside restaurants playing various board games. There were even occasional shouts of anger and small fights as they accused each other of cheating.

Children walked around with their parents helping them hold groceries bags as they leisurely walked home in the soft ray of sunlight from the sun.

"Sun? How is there a sun inside the Immortal Palace Sect? Was the crystal fortress just a facade, and we were teleported to the real headquarters?"

Numerous thoughts raced through Yoze and Alosa's minds as they looked at each other, hoping to see that the other was just as confused. It wasn't only them. The four who had entered just before they did also were frozen solid from shock.

"Don't stand there in shock. This is only the first floor of the Sect and is the worst by far."

"Regardless of whether one is an immortal, Immortal cultivator, or mortal, we are all forced to live on the first floor. But don't have any idea of visiting the homes of any immortal."

"Their security will vaporize you into dust the moment you get close. That includes mine." Immortal Patty said calmly as he waved his hand to lift his sword thousands of feet in the air to avoid the skyscrapers.

"How is this possible? How are there more floors than this? Aren't we outside?" After snapping out of his shock, Alosa unconsciously asked Immortal Patty a string of questions causing him to frown.

"I'm sorry, Immortal Patty, I was overwhelmed just now. Please punish me for my behavior."

Realizing her mistake, Alosa scratched her head to make herself look more innocent and quickly apologized.

With her timely apology and great acting skills, Immortal Patty's face relaxed, and he no longer thought of kicking her off his sword. If there was something he despised the most, it was people who thought too highly of themselves.

"To answer your question, this is possible because we are not outside but tens of miles underground. Our founder has created everything you see here." ｂｅ𝚍𝚗ｏｖｅ𝚕．𝚗𝚎𝚝

"From the artificial sun, the blue sky, clouds, and the plants. The only thing our founder didn't create was the buildings that immortal cultivators and immortals created." Noticing that Immortal Patty wasn't going to answer Alosa's questions, Immortal Miessy stepped in.

Without missing a beat Immortal Miessy pat the spot next to her to signal Alosa to take a seat. Immediately noticing, Alosa didn't hold up, pretended to hesitate, and walked over and sat down.

"Isn't the treatment between Alosa and everyone else a little too big?" Watching this happening, Yoze's eyes twitched as he almost couldn't believe what he saw.

"Now, I want you to feel the air around you. Can you sense what is different from the outside world?" Immortal Miessy said with a smile as she looked at Alosa as if she were her favorite child.

"There is a thin layer of crystal dust in the air. No, this is dust from the ground that is airborne due to the wind." Alosa's eyes widened with shock as she could feel her hands that a small amount of crystal dust was being absorbed into her body.

She quickly noticed that it wasn't just crystal dust in the air but regular dust from the ground. For a world created by a powerful Immortal, Alosa still found it hard to believe that they could afford to have this entire world covered in crystal dust, right?
