Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 946 - 944: The Mysterious Blue-Robed Youth
The surrounding disciples were discussing among themselves, their eyes filled with shock. Indeed, at this moment, they inadvertently forgot that Chu Ming had just become an Outer Palace Disciple!
Moreover, it wasn't terrifying that Chu Ming challenged across ranks, what was terrifying was that he challenged Gu Hu, a Sealed Saint Level genius!
Whoosh!
As the crowd discussed, the situation on the stage changed once again. Chu Ming's figure seemed like a concentrated gust of wind, and the Infinite Sword in his hand attacked from Gu Hu's left side, sending Gu Hu flying with one stroke!
Boom!
"Tiger King Killing Fist!"
Rumble!
Gu Hu halted his retreating figure, let out a long roar, his fist thundered, and there was a faint whistling sound as it rushed at Chu Ming. In an instant, a terrifying tiger-shaped phantom vaguely converged behind Gu Hu!
Whoosh!
"Cloud Movement!"
The Sword Light flashed in Chu Ming's eyes, and as his arm turned, a streak of trailing cloud flew from his sword, the Powerful Qi incomparably sharp, and in an instant clashed with Gu Hu's fist!
Rumble!
The Sword Aura and Fist Force collided, as if countless cosmic stars exploded together, smoke and dust arose, sweeping towards all directions, the entire stage suddenly shattered, the invisible waves madly expanded towards all directions!
If there hadn't been a protective shield around the stage's outer perimeter, the invisible waves would have affected the surrounding disciples!
Boom!
"Puff..."
Within the formless white waves, a figure flew back in a sorry state, spitting several mouthfuls of fresh blood in mid-air!
"Gu Hu senior brother lost!"
"Gu Hu senior brother actually lost?"
"This Chu Ming is truly terrifying. No matter what trump card Gu Hu plays, Chu Ming remains calm and collected, as if he hasn't reached his limit at all!"
"In my opinion, Chu Ming's strength, even among the Inner Palace Disciples, should rank around the twentieth!"
"Right, since Gu Hu lost, do you think he will honor the previous bet and fly a few laps naked around the Nine Elements Dao Palace?"
"I think it's unlikely. Gu Hu represents the image of the Cyan Heaven Sect. If he does this, won't the Cyan Heaven Sect's image be ruined?"
"Breach the agreement? Are you joking? Didn't you see that Li Shang Palace Master is not far away? You know his character well; even if the Cyan Heaven Sect's Hall Master comes, he wouldn't dare defy Li Shang Palace Master's command!"
As the battered figure was blasted off the stage, the surrounding Outer Palace Disciples erupted into an uproar because the defeated one was Gu Hu!
"This Chu Ming seems even more heaven-defying than Jiu Xuan back then!"
Li Shang's eyes lit up. The main reason he came here to judge this duel was to assess Chu Ming's prowess. Although Chu Ming's performance in the Ancient Yuan Illusion Realm was already brutal enough, the Nine Elements Dao Palace is entirely different from the Ancient Yuan Illusion Realm!
In the Nine Elements Dao Palace, geniuses gather, and the situation is far more perilous than in the Ancient Yuan Illusion Realm. But now it seems his worries were completely unfounded!
"How could Gu Hu possibly have lost?"
Ying Jiu muttered in disbelief, a bitter smile appearing on his lips. He recalled his earlier provocative actions towards Chu Ming, which now seemed like courting death!
"Damn it! It looks like I'll need to find someone else to deal with him!"
Liu Bing clenched her right fist tightly, her teeth grinding in her heart!
Whoosh!
The surrounding white waves gradually dispersed, and a red-robed figure slowly emerged in the sky, walking out from the white waves and landing on the shattered stage, his face extremely cold!
"You've lost!"
Looking at the fallen Gu Hu, Chu Ming said flatly. This is the Nine Elements Dao Palace, he can't use the Eye of Illusion here. If it were outside the Nine Elements Dao Palace, Gu Hu would have already become a corpse!
"Impossible?! How could I possibly lose?!"
Even at this moment, Gu Hu's face was filled with unwillingness, his eyes brimming with disbelief.
Whoosh!
"Gu Hu, you've lost. According to the bet, you should give Chu Ming five hundred thousand Contribution Points and strip naked to fly a few laps around the Nine Elements Dao Palace!"
Li Shang flew over from not far away, his expression indifferent.
"Impossible, I haven't lost!!"
Gu Hu said with a twisted face, his veins bulging, and there were faint traces of black qi entangling in his eyes, expanding slowly across his face, signs of going mad!
"Going mad? Such poor mentality!"
Li Shang saw through Gu Hu's state with a glance, then promptly transformed his right hand into a palm and gently blasted towards Gu Hu!
Rumble!
"Pfft..."
Gu Hu was immediately imprinted into the ground, fresh blood gushing from his mouth like it was free!
However, the black qi in his eyes was gradually receding. Gu Hu clutched his chest, stuffed a few Healing Elixirs into his mouth, and then gratefully spoke to Li Shang.
"Thank you for saving my life, Palace Master!"
At this moment, Gu Hu felt a trace of fear. If he'd gone mad, his cultivation might have turned to dust in an instant, which for him, was as good as taking his life!
"You've lost, you should fulfill the bet!"
Li Shang reminded indifferently, a trace of cold glint in his eyes!
"Five hundred thousand Contribution Points, I naturally have no problem with that, but could the condition of flying a few laps naked around the Nine Elements Dao Palace be waived? I'm willing to add another five hundred thousand Contribution Points!"
Gu Hu lowered his head and said silently. When he made the bet with Chu Ming, he never thought he would lose, but to his surprise, Chu Ming's strength was so terrifying that he was far from being a match!
Now he couldn't possibly fulfill the bet. Once he did, he wouldn't be able to stay in the Nine Elements Dao Palace anymore. Not only would the Cyan Heaven Sect abandon him, but even the other disciples would look down on him!
Li Shang didn't agree immediately but instead cast his gaze on Chu Ming, wanting to see his intention!
"Five hundred thousand Contribution Points? Do you think I'd lack a mere five hundred thousand Contribution Points?"
Chu Ming asked Gu Hu, a cold smile lifting at the corner of his lips. No matter what, he couldn't possibly agree to Gu Hu's terms, if he lost, Gu Hu would certainly kick him while he's down!
"You!!!"
Gu Hu's eyes reddened, his eye sockets nearly tearing apart, his fists clenched tightly, displaying the anger in his heart!
For a moment, Gu Hu harbored a hatred as immense as the sky!
Whoosh!
Just as the crowd was engrossed in the spectacle, a blue-robed figure emerged from the audience, descended steadily onto the dilapidated stage, his robe fluttering fiercely!
"It's him?"
Upon seeing the newcomer clearly, a trace of peculiar expression appeared in Chu Ming's eyes, for the one stepping onto the stage was the blue-robed youth who had made him feel a sense of danger earlier!
