Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 58 Betting

Hearing Qin Qing’s words, Gong Yanghe couldn’t help but smile widely, "Heh heh, you’re truly worthy, I didn’t misjudge you ha!"

Qin Qing smiled back.

The reason he dared take the risk to descend into the deep ravine was that he still had an ace up his sleeve.

His ace was the Blood Burning Secret Technique and the Wings of the Sky.

As long as those two Ancestral Beasts weren’t coming after him to kill him, Qin Qing was confident he’d have a chance to survive in the depths of the ravine.

From the way the two Ancestral Beasts were fighting, it seemed like they were both intent on killing each other, both so furious that they wouldn’t even bother with minor characters like Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe.

As for Gong Yanghe, Qin Qing didn’t believe this guy didn’t have one or two life-saving aces of his own.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have volunteered to take the risk of exploring the ravine.

Of course...

The main reason, as Gong Yanghe had said, was likely a remarkable treasure of heaven and earth over which the two Ancestral Beasts were fighting.

An Ancestral Beast was equivalent to a Nascent Soul Martial Ancestor among the martial cultivators of the Human Race.

A treasure that could provoke a fight between two Ancestral Beasts, without even thinking, one could understand just how precious it must be.

Before long, Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe found a foothold for descent.

"Qin Qing, interested in making a bet?" Gong Yanghe provocatively asked Qin Qing.

"Bet on what?" Qin Qing looked at Gong Yanghe.

"On who gets to the bottom first!" Gong Yanghe declared.

"Alright, what’s the wager?" Qin Qing asked again.

"How about this, whoever reaches the bottom first will be the ’big brother,’ and the other has to be the ’little brother,’ how about it?" Gong Yanghe wiped his nose.

Qin Qing chuckled and nodded, "Alright, no problem!"

"Then it’s settled. Let’s get something straight, whoever’s feet touch the ground first wins! No take-backs! Now, I’m going to count down from three, and we’ll start..."

Gong Yanghe, brimming with fighting spirit, looked at Qin Qing and began counting down, "Three!"

"Whoosh!"

However, the guy had barely counted to three when he immediately grabbed a vine and leaped down.

"That little rascal!"

Qin Qing was startled, but quickly grasped a vine and with a leap, swung down towards the lower reaches.

Both Qin Qing’s and Gong Yanghe’s speeds were extremely fast.

Grabbing onto vine after vine on the stone wall, swinging back and forth, they moved rapidly downward.

They looked like two nimble monkeys, no, their speed was definitely faster than average monkeys.

"Gong Yanghe, I’m overtaking you. Better speed up!"

Qin Qing leaped down several dozen feet and landed on a protruding rock.

Seeing that, Gong Yanghe also hurriedly jumped down, dropping thirty or forty feet, and grabbed onto a vine.

"Rip!"

The vine clinging to the stone wall was directly torn off.

But Gong Yanghe pushed against the wall, and in the next instant, his fingers hooked like claws, directly digging into a slightly protruding stone.

He looked up and grinned at Qin Qing, "Qin Qing, you’re still lacking if you want to compete with me. I’ll begrudgingly accept you as my little brother!" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Heh heh... wait and see!"

Qin Qing smiled and picked up speed.

The two chased each other, overtaking one another.

However, after descending to a certain height, there were no more vines.

More layers of moss covered the stone wall.

This significantly increased the difficulty of descending.

However, not only did their speed not slow down, it continued to increase.

Gong Yanghe pulled out a knife, and it sliced through the wall like butter, easily penetrating deep into the stone with a gentle thrust.

He fell rapidly, using the force of the knife in the stone wall to buffer his descent.

As for Qin Qing, both his bodily strength and coordination were superior to Gong Yanghe’s.

In the process of continuous descent, he became more and more adept at climbing down the wall, leaving Gong Yanghe behind and even pulling away by a distance.

"This Qin Qing, he’s really formidable."

"No, I can’t lose to him... otherwise I’ll really end up being his lackey."

Gong Yanghe was also in a frenzy.

He took out two Spirit Talismans.

"Gale Talisman, I’m going all out!"

Gong Yanghe applied the two Spirit Talismans to his body with a pained expression, then channeled his Spiritual Power to activate them.

Spiritual Patterns rapidly emerged from the talismans, intertwining around Gong Yanghe.

His speed instantly skyrocketed.

He flew down swiftly, clinging to the rock face like a great bird with its wings spread, occasionally gliding through the air before sticking back against the cliff wall for a moment.

In just a few ups and downs, he had once again surpassed Qin Qing!

"Heh heh... Qin Qing! You’re still too green to compete with me!"

Gong Yanghe shouted triumphantly.

"Hm?" Qin Qing looked up and saw Gong Yanghe nearly flying past him.

"Is that a Gale Talisman?"

Although a Gale Talisman couldn’t truly help a Martial Cultivator fly, it did allow for gliding over a distance.

This type of talisman was even more precious than a Godspeed Talisman. While the Godspeed Talisman was usually more suited to flat and open areas, the Gale Talisman was different; it was more effective in complex terrains like forests, cliff sides, and precipices.

"If that’s the case, then there’s no need for me to hold back anymore!"

Qin Qing took out the Wings of the Firmament, and in the next instant, as Spiritual Power flowed into it, lines of white crisscrossed behind him to form a pair of wings.

"Let’s go!"

With a flap of his wings, Qin Qing plunged downward.

Gong Yanghe, still basking in self-satisfaction, suddenly felt a gust of wind sweep by.

The next moment, the smile on his face froze.

"What the...?"

"He can fly?"

"Aren’t you just a Soul Refinement Realm Martial Cultivator? How can you fly?"

...

Qin Qing landed at the bottom of The Abyss.

The first sensation here was coldness!

A bone-chilling coldness.

The sun above The Abyss couldn’t reach the bottom.

Even the air was murky.

In the distance, hundreds of yards away, the battle between the White Flood Dragon and the purple wolf had reached a fever pitch.

At this moment, Gong Yanghe landed on the ground.

"Qin Qing, that doesn’t count. You cheated!"

Gong Yanghe said, unconvinced.

"I cheated?" Qin Qing chuckled.

"The thing you used to fly, that’s a Spiritual Treasure, right? That doesn’t count..." Gong Yanghe said.

Qin Qing dismissed the complaint, "Before I used the Spiritual Treasure, you had used the Gale Talisman, correct? So, it’s fine for you to use a Spirit Talisman, but I can’t use a Spiritual Treasure?"

"Uh..." Gong Yanghe was about to retort when suddenly—

"Bang!"

The White Flood Dragon’s tail struck the side of the cliff wall fiercely.

"Rumble rumble..."

The stone cliff trembled violently, and cracks spread like a spider web in an instant.

Simultaneously, a huge boulder broke off, hurtling towards Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe.

"Dodge!"

Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe both evaded backward.

"Boom!"

The boulder smashed right where Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe had just been standing, sinking more than a yard deep into the ground.

And at that moment, a crack opened up in the rock wall nearby, with a hazy white glow emanating from within...
