Chapter 549: Chapter 265 Core Tomb_4

Chu Xiaotian turned around, gazing at the approaching Ning Qi, a peculiar expression flickered in his eyes!

Ning Qi’s speed was incredibly fast, and not only that, he was bringing along all the True Inheritors from the Infinite Sword Sect.

Such self-expenditure was truly unwise!

At the same time, Chu Xiaotian couldn’t help but be amazed by Ning Qi’s speed and profound magical power.

Of course, when comparing himself to Ning Qi, Chu Xiaotian believed he could achieve the same, so he didn’t mind it much.

Many people around immediately noticed the meeting of the two Heavenly Pride.

Some gave up the thought of entering the Heavenly Tomb, showing a look of anticipation for the impending spectacle.

When Heavenly Pride meet, the conflict between these two has long been inevitable, and a battle is surely bound to happen!

It’s not like they’re in a rush, and perhaps they might even profit from picking up after the chaos.

"Ning Qi, we finally meet in this Profound Truth Secret Realm!"

Chu Xiaotian, wearing silver armor, stood tall, his mere presence gave off a daunting aura of suppressing mountains and rivers.

The faces of the onlookers changed, it was no wonder he was named among the Top Five Heavenly Pride, even considered the leader among them, his wild aura indeed carried a sense of world dominance.

Meanwhile, they turned their eyes to Ning Qi.

Ning Qi, leading eight True Inheritors, stopped ten zhang away from Chu Xiaotian.

His gaze towards Chu Xiaotian seemed unfazed, almost unaffected.

The crowd didn’t sense the same domineering aura in Ning Qi as in Chu Xiaotian, yet they felt a transcendent demeanor from Ning Qi, as if an Immortal descending to the mortal realm.

Quite a few onlookers whispered amongst themselves.

"What do you think, which one of them is stronger?"

"That Chu Xiaotian is so domineering, he had already challenged Ning Qi to a duel, and Ning Qi didn’t show up, losing a point in presence, so, I root for Chu Xiaotian!"

"But Chu Xiaotian is alone, while Ning Qi is leading all the True Inheritors of the Infinite Sword Sect, if it’s eight against one, no matter how strong Chu Xiaotian is, he might still have to concede!"

"Hmph, the Infinite Sword Sect is just an Upper Sect, only Ning Qi barely made it into the Top Five Heavenly Pride, the rest couldn’t match the top True Inheritors of a pinnacle Upper Sect, numbers won’t matter."

"I reckon this Ning Qi is somewhat unfathomable, although Chu Xiaotian is domineering, he’s overly emotional, whereas Ning Qi remains detached, judging by emotions, Chu Xiaotian seems to lose a bit."

"You all stop arguing! They’re about to confront each other, the result will reveal itself soon, why don’t we take this opportunity to place some bets!"

"Wow, you’re quite something, tell me, what are the odds for the two of them."

The person suggesting the bets scanned the two and suddenly said:

"Chu Xiaotian is two for one, Ning Qi is one for two, if all nine from the Infinite Sword Sect make a move, then Chu Xiaotian is five for one, Ning Qi is one for five!"

"Goodness, you’re completely siding with Chu Xiaotian, but I’m in!"

In an instant, many joined in.

Ning Qi and Chu Xiaotian naturally heard the conversations of the crowd.

Chu Xiaotian’s gaze seemed to materialize like a blade, fixing on the one who suggested the bet.

That person was also the top True Inheritor of a minor sect, but under Chu Xiaotian’s gaze, he felt pinned in place.

He trembled all over, looking towards Chu Xiaotian, hurriedly said, "Does the Heavenly Pride Chu have any instructions?"

Chu Xiaotian snorted coldly, "What boldness you have, to dare gamble on me in front of my face, do you think of me as a pawn?"

The person’s teeth seemed to chatter as he replied in fear, "I was wrong, I shouldn’t have gambled with the Heavenly Pride Chu, I’ll close the bets immediately!"

Chu Xiaotian sternly said, "Who told you to close the bets?"

"Then what does the Heavenly Pride Chu mean?"

"I can let you run the bets, but of the profits you earn, I will take eighty percent!"

"Eighty percent?" The person looked distressed, but had no choice, "Fine, eighty percent, it is eighty percent. To make the acquaintance of the Heavenly Pride Chu, I’m happy even if it’s ninety percent."

"Hmph, do you think I care for what meager belongings you poor souls have? This is merely a lesson for you!"

Chu Xiaotian turned his gaze back to Ning Qi, his hands interlocked, and his joints cracked incessantly.

"Alright, since people are placing bets, I think it’s time for our battle to commence."

Behind Ning Qi, the eight had various expressions on their faces.

But most of them leaned positively, having followed Ning Qi along the way, they truly felt his strength and were not worried that Ning Qi would lose to Chu Xiaotian.

However, some still harbored concerns, fearing the clash between the two might cause harm, which could affect their entry into the Golden Celestial Tomb.

Ning Qi turned back and said lightly, "You all step back, in at most ten breaths, we’ll be inside."

"Ten breaths?"

The eight were unexpectedly stunned, except Qin Minghao.

And the onlookers, hearing Ning Qi speak such grand words, were all faced with shock.

How dare he?

The encounter between Chu Xiaotian and Ning Qi, was only a matter of a few breaths.

But based on their performances, many already leaned toward Chu Xiaotian winning in their hearts.

After all, Chu Xiaotian’s previous display was too domineering, even managing the betting on their duel!

Even if the crowd felt displeased in their hearts, a strong one is still a strong one, being inclined towards the strong is a natural instinct for all beings.

"Ten breaths? Hahaha!"

Chu Xiaotian seemed as if he’d heard the biggest joke in the world, his thick brows lifted, resembling the Celestial Sword cutting through the sky.

"Ning Qi, you’re saying you will be defeated in ten breaths, right. At least you have some self-awareness in this respect!"

Ning Qi didn’t waste his words, his white robe swept across the sky, directly launching a palm strike towards Chu Xiaotian.

If not for certain considerations, forget ten breaths, he wouldn’t even need one, to send Chu Xiaotian down to negotiate with King Yama.

Chu Xiaotian roared wildly, his voice shaking the mountains and rivers!

Within a ten zhang radius centered on him, everything seemed to tremble.
