Chapter 877 Simultaneously Reaching the Summi (1/2)
Roar!
The roar of the azure serpent could be heard from the ladder.
Stepping on the azure serpent, Zhou Yuan rose as fast as lightning, quickly catching up to Lu Xiao, who was in the lead. Lu Xiao, on the other hand, was completely shrouded in purple qi, shadows flickering beneath his feet.
At this moment, both sides were evidently moving at full speed as though the majestic pressure that was pouring down from above didn’t exist. Such powerful Genesis Qi foundations made many people smack their lips in surprise.
The battle between the two quickly changed as time pa.s.sed by. Cheers repeatedly rang out, and the atmosphere buzzed with excitement. Everyone found that while Zhou Yuan and Lu Xiao were competing with all their strength, the distance between them was gradually closing!
It undoubtedly set off a huge wave.
No one thought that Zhou Yuan, a new pavilion master, would dare to challenge Lu Xiao, the most experienced pavilion master, on the ladder where one needed to endure purely purely with their Genesis Qi foundation. Moreover, from the looks of it, this challenge didn’t seem to be just arrogance from Zhou Yuan!
As a result, many people buzzed with excitement. After all, the greater the show, the better. They would rather Zhou Yuan fight to the end so at least the chief pavilion master battle would be an exceptionally good show.
Lu Xiao’s face darkened when he heard the cheering voices from the outside world, and there was a hint of anger in the depths of his eyes. He felt as if he were the forest’s beast king being stroked by a little mouse.
He never thought that someone would dare challenge him!
This was something even Han Yuan and Mu Liu didn’t dare to do!
What angered and surprised him the most was that the distance between Zhou Yuan and him was constantly shortening. If this continued, it would be possible for Zhou Yuan to catch up.
“That guy’s Genesis Qi foundation shouldn't be as strong as mine, but that azure serpent qi is extremely strange.” Lu Xiao fumed. He felt that the azure serpent qi emitted a mysterious and domineering intent and that its power was in no way inferior to his purple qi.
And evidently, Zhou Yuan relied on the tyrannical power of the azure serpent qi to make up for the differences between them and quickly catch up.
“Never mind, I’m almost there anyway.” Lu Xiao drew a deep breath. In truth, one’s Genesis Qi foundation wasn’t of much significance in a battle if the difference in foundation wasn’t huge. The outcome of the battle would depend on other means and skills, and Lu Xiao naturally had great confidence in his other means.
Therefore, there was no need to think too deeply about Zhou Yuan’s qi. After he climbed to the summit, he would naturally have the chance to teach him a lesson.
With this thought in mind, Lu Xiao no longer paid any attention to Zhou Yuan, who was quickly catching up behind him. He planned to climb to the summit before Zhou Yuan came.
But when Zhou Yuan saw Lu Xiao making his way to the summit, he naturally understood Lu Xiao's plan. Since he had started to catch up, how could he let Lu Xiao reach the summit of the mountain first? Although the ladder round had little to do with the chief pavilion master battle, Zhou Yuan understood that it was a process of gathering momentum.
The momentum of the person who reaches the top first would soar to the peak, and their state would reach a near-perfect level, which would undoubtedly benefit them in the upcoming battle.
Zhou Yuan had never underestimated Lu Xiao before because he knew that Lu Xiao was a very difficult opponent. This was the reason that he had to fight!
If he didn’t fight, Lu Xiao would take all opportunities and benefits.
Zhou Yuan wasn’t stupid, and he naturally knew he couldn’t give in.
He took a deep breath, folded one hand in a hand seal and operated the World Subduing Heavenly Serpent Qi without reservation.
Roar!
The deafening roar of an azure serpent resounded across the area, accompanied by a mysterious majesty. Azure qi began to gather around Zhou Yuan’s body, forming the silhouette of an azure serpent before rising into the sky like a dragon.
As he stepped on the azure serpent’s shadow, Zhou Yuan’s speed suddenly skyrocketed!
Swoos.h.!.+
There seemed to be an azure light streaking across the endless ladder.
In the outside world, suddenly there were countless gasps of astonishment. Such a speed was exceptionally amazing in ordinary times—not to mention, wasn’t it under such mighty pressure?!
At this speed, the distance between Zhou Yuan and Lu Xiao was rapidly getting closer.
In just a few breaths, the two were only dozens of steps away from each other.
