After taking a moment to digest the meaning, a cold light flashed in Xiang Sheng's eyes.
It turns out there is a hidden fourth level.
She had no idea about the specific content of the fourth level, but "Xiang Hongyu" was most likely heading for the fourth level.
It was clearly stated in the mind that the fourth level would be unlocked after playing 100 games, and there were only ten spots available.
In other words, the top ten players with the most breakthroughs will enter the fourth level with her.
Thinking of this, she suddenly raised her eyes and took in all the cracks of the chess game in the stone chamber.
Apart from her, the person who solved the most chess games was indeed "Xiang Hongyu", who had solved 85 games; the second was not the famous Jiang Yi, but Dong Jinghuan, who solved 75 games.
Next came the four true disciples of Dongzhou, Jiang Yi, Wei Lesheng, Bai Miaoyin and Zhong Yongchang, all of whom had broken more than 60 games.
The next three are Du Yuan, Lin Beilan, and... Wang Tuo?
Xiang Sheng was surprised to see Wang Tuo sitting in front of the chessboard, scratching his head. His number of winning games was even higher than that of most of the sect's true disciples. One should not judge a person by his appearance.
In this way, there was an unexpected helper.
But that's not enough.
Xiang Sheng's eyes showed a thoughtful look. As long as he entered the fourth level, "Xiang Hongyu" would become more vigilant when seeing him, or even take the initiative to retreat before achieving his goal.
This was not what she wanted to see.
But she and "Xiang Hongyu" are connected by the true essence of the devil. As long as they are close to each other, they will sense each other. It seems impossible to approach him quietly.
How can one kill with one strike?
A deadlock loomed in his mind, and he couldn't think of a solution for the time being. Xiang Sheng took a deep breath, suppressed his distracting thoughts, and continued to crack the chess game.
No matter what, she had to enter the fourth level first, otherwise all her plans would be in vain.
Time passed quickly, and five more days passed in the room amidst the hustle and bustle.
The data on the side of Xiang Sheng's chessboard has reached an astonishing "one hundred".
She sat quietly cross-legged, gently stroking the chess piece on her fingertips, with no intention of putting it down.
There are still two days until the end of the third level.
Once this chess piece falls, the game will end immediately.
She raised her eyes and glanced at the stone wall. "Xiang Hongyu" was quite fast and had already solved the 97th game. If she was really given the last two days, his result would most likely be on par with hers.
Xiang Sheng certainly didn't want to see that scene, but she hadn't figured out how to deal with "Xiang Hongyu" yet. It would not be wise to rush into the fourth level.
Rubbing his brows tiredly, Xiang Sheng pondered for a moment, then suddenly closed his eyes and slowly entered into meditation.
When the onlookers saw this, they looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what was going on.
"Is this... asleep?"
"Why isn't it going down?"
"I see the chess game is clear, and victory is only one move away. The witch is deliberately stuck here. What's her purpose?"
"I think she is deliberately despising her opponent."
"Maybe I'm just tired and want to take a break..."
"Absolutely not!"
“…”
Six hours later, Xiang Sheng woke up and felt his ears and eyes were clear and he was full of energy.
She raised her eyes and saw that "Xiang Hongyu" had broken through to the 98th level, and there was no impatience in his eyes.
She didn't know if it was due to the short nap, but after she woke up, she seemed to have a better understanding of the hundred forbidden patterns.
Although it was only the most basic perception, when Xiang Sheng compared the formula and looked at a corner of the "Qi Tian" formation, everything he saw was immediately completely different.
"Deceiving the heavens, deceiving the heavens and the earth... this is the true use of the formation plate!"
Xiang Sheng's eyes flashed.
This thing can be used to block the secrets of heaven. If it can even deceive the heavens, then what can a mere cultivator do?
However, although she understood it, she still needed to verify whether the formation was as she guessed.
She recalled for a moment, then clumsily formed a few spells and injected them into the formation.
The patterns on the array plate lit up slightly, and a cloud of transparent smoke suddenly emerged, covering the entire body.
But after just a moment, the transparent smoke dissipated on its own.
Someone in the room immediately wiped their eyes and asked in confusion, "What happened just now? Why did I see the Lu family witch disappear for a moment?"
"Dazzled?"
"I saw it too!"
"Could it be related to the chessboard?"
“…”
Listening to everyone's discussions, Xiang Sheng felt calm. This formation consumed a lot of energy, but if it was only used to block the perception of one person, she could bear it with her cultivation level.
The problem of the demon seed's true essence has been solved, and now there is only one trouble left.
Xiang Sheng pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked up at Lin Beilan, "Senior Sister Lin, do me a favor..."
Lin Beilan was stunned at first when she heard this, and then her expression changed immediately. After a moment, she finally gritted her teeth and replied with one word.
"good!"
Xiang Sheng's eyes lit up instantly, and he placed the chess piece down without saying a word.
