Chapter 30: A Duel Between Experts!

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

Li Xuanmen walked out of the Immortal’s Destiny Shop with a surprised look on his face. He didn’t expect to encounter such a great opportunity just to accompany a beautiful woman for a walk. He was really lucky.

He asked Yu Linglong excitedly, “Fairy Linglong, what is the background of this Senior Liu? His cultivation is really too powerful, and he is even willing to guide the juniors in their cultivation…”

Today, he had encountered something like the Fire Essence being used as a brazier, and the chessboard being able to create a world… All these things had brought him great curiosity, as if it was a dream.

“I don’t know either.”

Yu Linglong shook her head and said, “Anyway, Senior Liu’s cultivation is very powerful. Master once guessed that Senior Liu Changgong might have had an old affair with our Grand Moon Sect a long time ago, and that’s why he specially lived in seclusion in this place. When my master’s lifespan was approaching, he gave some guidance and helped him break through to the Dharma Idol realm…”

“What? Senior Liu was the one who guided your master to break through to the Dharma Idol realm?”

Li Xuanmen was very surprised. Dharma Idol cultivators were very rare in the entire Southern Territory, but this Senior Liu was actually so powerful that he could even guide Dharma Idols..,

Li Xuanmen felt his heart begin to beat violently. Oh, no, this was a feeling of excitement.

This Senior Liu was simply a golden thigh… Ah, no, it was a heavenly thigh. If he managed to keep it, he would soar to the skies.

‘No, I have to come often during my days in the Grand Moon Sect… No, I can’t come often. What if he gets bored? I just have to come here from time to time to build a good relationship with him and win his favor. If I’m lucky enough to be accepted as his disciple, wouldn’t I soar to the skies? The throne of the Great Xia Kingdom isn’t even worth mentioning,’ Li Xuanmen thought to himself.

Unknowingly, the two of them had already returned to the Grand Moon Sect.

Just as they entered the sect, they received a message that the Sect Master had something to discuss with Li Xuanmen.

“Prince Li, Fairy Wang Yuyan asked me to pass this to you.”

The Sect Master of the Grand Moon Sect passed him a message talisman,

Initially, Wang Yuyan was prepared to bring Li Xuanmen to the abode of the Xiaoyao Grand Sage. However, she did not expect that Li Xuanmen’s trip to the store at the foot of the mountain would be delayed for so long, so she did not wait for him.

She left this message talisman to make it convenient for Li Xuanmen to contact her. After all, the royal family of the Great Xia Kingdom had a lot of face in the Great Xia Kingdom.

“This Wang Yuyan, Wang Fairy, really did not throw me away after using me up. However, I will not go to that abode of the Xiaoyao Grand Sage because there are clearly better things here. The things of the Xiaoyao Grand Sage are all inanimate objects, and there is a living senior here. As long as you are not a fool, you will know what to choose…”

“However, I still have to inform Fairy Wang about my decision not to go. Perhaps I can help Fairy Wang out!”

..

In the nameless canyon, everyone was frowning and thinking about how to solve this ‘Exquisite Chessboard’.

Wang Yuyan was also frowning and thinking about the direction of the chess game.

As more and more people went up to break the chess game, more and more people began to understand the subtlety of the chess game.

At the beginning of the game, it could still be a stalemate, but after a dozen moves, the opponent would eat more than ten points. Even if they didn’t lose, they wouldn’t be able to hold on for long.

Up until now, more than a dozen cultivators had gone up, but no one had been able to hold on for more than a dozen moves…

Seeing that many people had returned in defeat, no one went up to try again, Zhu Zhao could only say to Wang Yuyan, “Fairy Wang, I don’t know much about this chess game, but I have to experience things personally before I can get a clue. Then I’ll go up and play a few moves first. I hope I can bring you some gains.”

After saying that, Zhu Zhao didn’t wait for Wang Yuyan to stop him. He already went up and started playing chess.

As soon as Zhu Zhao walked into the game, he felt that he had entered an unfamiliar world. There were eight statues of gods with different appearances.

As soon as he walked into the world, the eight statues of gods with different appearances suddenly spoke, “Who are you? How dare you come in and offend our Eight Heavenly Dragons?”

Zhu Zhao felt as if his heart was about to explode when he saw the eight statues of gods. However, the idea of the glorious Grand Moon Sect suddenly appeared in his mind. He gritted his teeth and began to play.

After just a few moves, the chess pieces of the black and white sides began to change. They became soldiers in black and white armor and began to fight…

Yu Hongye, who was outside, saw that Zhu Zhao was Wang Yuyan’s helper. She rolled her eyes and said, “You can’t even deal with a corner on the side, and you still want to deal with the overall situation? Chasing after the world?”

Zhu Zhao started to feel frightened when he heard this. He felt that he was surrounded by enemies and the enemy’s soldiers had already rushed to the front of him, the commander-in-chief…

Seeing that Zhu Zhao was soon defeated, Yu Hongye was very proud, she walked to the front of the chess game and said to everyone, “This Exquisite Chessboard is not an ordinary chess game. It contains the eight divine dragons of Buddhism and the eight sufferings of the world. If you want to solve it, you have to solve these eight sufferings… But cultivators are also mortals. Without becoming immortals, they will have desires, unless…”

Before Yu Hongye could finish her sentence, she had already walked into the chessboard.

“…It’s a risky move.”

After Yu Hongye walked into the chessboard, she began to play chess with her chess pieces. However, her method was very different. She gave up being upright. Instead, she was full of evil energy.

Soon, Yu Hongye felt that her risky move had come to an end. If she forcefully continued, it would trigger a backlash and destroy her Dao heart. She could only retreat and give up on this game.

The moment Yu Hongye came out, she set her eyes on Wang Yuyan.

To her, the person who was most likely to break the game was her old enemy.

Wang Yuyan did not laugh at her because she herself was not confident. Instead, following Yu Hongye’s failure, everyone present began to slowly focus their attention on her.

Wang Yuyan felt everyone’s gaze and felt a little uneasy. However, she knew that although she had read some chess books when she came, none of the questions and endings on them were similar.

Soon, more people went up to solve them, but no one succeeded.

“So what if they fail! I have to try.” Wang Yuyan gritted her teeth and was ready to go up and break the game.

“Hey — Hey — Fairy Wang? How’s the situation in your cave abode?”

A voice came from the communication talisman on her body. Wang Yuyan was a little impatient. Why was this Li Xuanmen so annoying?

“I’m breaking the formation to play chess! Don’t bother me…”

Hearing Wang Yuyan’s words, Li Xuanmen was not angry. He knew that the other party was breaking the formation to play chess. He also volunteered.

“I just got to know a senior who is very good at chess. You can tell me. I will let the senior guide you…”
