Chapter 828 - 824: The Shaking Light Disc Emerges
However, even though Sun Miaohan spoke with great confidence, as if saying "let’s wait and see," deep down she couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy.
In the past few days, Xiao Tian’s performance seemed to fully cooperate with Sun Miaohan, yet she always had a sense of unease.
It always felt like the other side was acting just like she was, but what they were competing in was not acting skills.
No matter what Sun Miaohan thought, if she wanted to maintain her undefeated record against Ji Dantong without using True Qi, she could only pin her hopes on Xiao Tian.
On the other hand, Xiao Tian felt somewhat speechless at Sun Miaohan’s baseless and inexplicable confidence.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Sun Miaohan opposite him furrow her brow, her expression becoming extremely serious, as if she had premonitioned something. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
The next moment, Xiao Tian understood why Sun Miaohan had such an expression, because in his perception, the energy fluctuations from the Shaking Light Disc around him suddenly became extremely unstable.
The projections of the Shaking Light Disc around started to flicker irregularly, as if the Shaking Light Disc was deciding from where it would appear.
Xiao Tian dared not delay, immediately pushing the Iron Chain Cross River to its extreme, and the surging True Qi from his Dantian erupted forth, furiously circulating through his meridians and thickening.
Meanwhile, the other experts also sensed something and began to use their unique strategies, putting their pre-planned tactics into action.
Moments later, multiple locations around lit up simultaneously, switching like a revolving lantern, as if at a lottery draw, making everyone hold their breath, not daring to make a sound.
Everyone harbored hope, wishing that the Shaking Light Disc would appear in a location close to them, so they could seize the advantageous position.
However, the next moment, something unexpected happened to everyone...
After the flickering bright spots like a revolving lantern flashed dazzlingly, they ultimately launched diagonally towards the center like lasers.
Subsequently, after the convergence of several massive light beams, a small, pitch-black dot, the size of a marble, suddenly appeared.
Just as everyone was reacting, the marble-sized black spot began to expand, turning into millstone size within seconds.
Then, that mass of black continually wriggled outward, as if something within was about to break through, causing everyone’s emotions to surge.
Xiao Tian decisively dashed out, leaping through the air, utilizing the tall branches to move back and forth, looking like a bird freely soaring through the sky, heading towards the black center.
On the opposing side, there were also two figures rapidly moving, targeting the same center’s pitch-black dot, one figure tightly enveloped in mist.
No need to guess, Xiao Tian also knew who the two were, the dark and light, the bright and dim showing incredible synergy; they could only be Thunder King Salon and Hidden Needle.
Besides the leading trio, there were also dozens of figures following closely behind, appearing chaotic yet maintaining a certain order.
In such a free-for-all situation, although seemingly chaotic, it had its advantages; at least the scene could be controlled better compared to a battle among multiple factions.
Xiao Tian gritted his teeth and abruptly kicked a thick, bowl-sized tree, gaining speed from the recoil, the Protective True Qi on his body becoming even brighter, crashing forward like a meteor.
Opposite him, Thunder King Salon and Hidden Needle were also relentless, each increasing their speed beyond their original pace, determined to outdo Xiao Tian.
For the two of them, acquiring the Shaking Light Disc wasn’t really important; what mattered was using this opportunity to turn their previous losses around and vent their frustration.
No matter what, these two were also notable figures, losing to someone as young as Xiao Tian was something utterly unacceptable.
Moreover, Thunder King Salon and Hidden Needle each had their own ample reasons.
Needless to say, Thunder King Salon, as a senior member of the Water Drop Organization, naturally had a hostile relationship with Xiao Tian.
As for Hidden Needle, his painstakingly assembled gear set was effortlessly damaged by Xiao Tian.
Although what was missing was just an insignificant finger part, for a perfectionist and someone with OCD, it was more unbearable than the equipment being completely destroyed.
Coincidentally, Hidden Needle is such an innate perfectionist, not allowing any flaw in himself.
Furthermore, the last time he almost had his mask removed by Xiao Tian, which for an assassin was akin to a deep personal feud.
So, with different resentments but the same desire to kill Xiao Tian, the two joined forces once more.
And their objective was simple: even if they couldn’t defeat Xiao Tian, they couldn’t let him obtain the Shaking Light Disc. Even if it meant dragging him down!
Despite Thunder King Salon and Hidden Needle believing that the possibility of failing to defeat Xiao Tian was negligible, it was clear their intention was to make life hell for him.
Just as Xiao Tian was within 500 meters of the target, transparent holes suddenly appeared in the black mass in mid-air, white lights shining sharply through, as if the time had come.
Sure enough, as this thought occurred to everyone simultaneously, the black mass in mid-air was suddenly filled with dazzling white light and shattered abruptly.
The blinding light caused the experts rushing towards it to pause, instinctively raising their arms to shield against the unbearably bright white light.
...
Before long, as the crowd realized the light was dimming and cautiously opened their eyes, they finally saw the long-anticipated true form of the Shaking Light Disc.
Upon seeing the Shaking Light Disc, black as ink in mid-air, including Xiao Tian, everyone felt a strange emotion, clearly realizing their previous understanding had been broken.
Looking at the Shaking Light Disc, shaped like a children’s pinwheel yet uniquely peculiar, after a moment of being stunned, everyone awoke like from a dream, each employing their Body Technique to surge forward.
The principle of rarity being precious holds true at all times, as rarity increases the inherent worth of something, resulting in a value beyond its own equivalent.
Simply put, it’s a premium, exceeding expectations!
The appearance of the Shaking Light Disc perfectly coincided with this principle. Without even considering its effects, the appearance alone was vastly different from anything seen before.
If one obtained such a treasure, not getting it priced sky-high would indeed be a surprising aberration.
With dreams of getting rich or driven by curiosity, the experts surged forward as if fueled with a newfound fervor, each striving with all their might.
