Chapter 297: Playing Chess with the Demon Lord

Lu Fan frowned slightly and looked towards the west. Just now, he seemed to feel some strange energy surging in that direction.

However, that kind of energy appeared and disappeared quickly. It suddenly appeared and was wiped out between heaven and earth.

Because Lu Fan's soul had become extremely strong and his sensitivity was far beyond what it had been before, even though it was a sudden appearance, he was still able to clearly detect the strange energy fluctuations in that direction.

Lu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had thought of something.

"The west……"

With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, Lu Fan leaned against the wheelchair, his fingers tapping lightly on the hand guard.

It seems that some external troublesome factors brought about by the fusion of the two worlds have finally appeared.

Lu Fan had expected this, and he didn't care or worry about it.

Even, I feel a little interested.

…

Imperial Capital, Purple Gold Palace.

Luo Mingsang was wearing a gorgeous palace dress and walking slowly. A soldier from the Xiang family appeared behind her and bowed to her.

"Is there any movement from the Black Dragon Cult?"

Luo Mingsang looked toward the northwest, which was the direction of the Wolong Ridge secret realm.

The guard shook his head.

"Ever since Baiyujing held an auction and the news of the appearance of the Wolongling secret realm, the Black Dragon Cult, which was originally ready to make a move, has fallen silent. Even the gangs under its command have become much more obedient."

Xiang Jiajun said.

"Have you settled down?"

Luo Mingsang seemed to be thinking about something.

After a long while, she smiled helplessly, "It's better to be content, so as to avoid fighting and trouble for both sides."

"However, keep an eye on the Black Dragon Cult. They have big ambitions."

"Also... Your Majesty went to Wolong Ridge. Did you comprehend the meaning of the Tao?"

Luo Mingsang suddenly asked.

This Xiang family soldier paused slightly.

He glanced at Luo Mingsang cautiously. Now, all the Xiang family soldiers in the imperial capital knew that there seemed to be an invisible gap between Overlord and Luo Mingsang.

Therefore, one must be careful when mentioning each other in front of each other.

After considering his words, the Xiang family soldier said, "Your Majesty... is still contemplating."

Luo Mingsang's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and his expression seemed to be much dimmer.

"Got it. Go down. Remember to keep a close eye on the Black Dragon Cult. Report any unusual movements immediately."

Luo Mingsang said.

She managed the capital for the Overlord, and at least the management was in good order.

The sky is bright, with blue sky and white clouds, and there is a sense of leisure and tranquility.

However, Luo Mingsang discovered that beneath this silence... there was a huge fluctuation hidden.

Once it breaks out, it may cause a lot of trouble.

Shortly after Xiang's army went down.

Someone else rode in at full speed from outside the palace.

Another member of Xiang family army.

Because Luo Mingsang managed the Imperial Capital in an orderly manner, the Xiang family army in the Imperial Capital were all convinced of Luo Mingsang.

Moreover, the Overlord had instructed them to obey Luo Mingsang's orders.

Therefore, Luo Mingsang has absolute authority to command these Xiang family troops.

Seeing this person, Luo Mingsang's eyes lit up.

“Found it?!”

Luo Mingsang looked at this person and asked impatiently.

"I...have fulfilled your mission."

This soldier of the Xiang family army was covered in dust and even had dirt on his body.

"A spiritual stone was found in a mountain range six hundred miles away from the Imperial Capital. After my subordinates went to investigate personally, they determined that this place was a small spiritual stone mine!"

This Xiang family soldier clasped his fists and looked very excited.

How could he not be excited after discovering a spirit stone mine?

The news of the Baiyujing auction had already spread throughout the world, and the news that spirit stones would become the common currency in the cultivation world in the future was also known and analyzed by various forces.

If Xiliang or Daxuan proposed to unify the currency of the cultivation world, this idea would be met with difficulties and obstacles, and the doubts of the major families and many cultivation forces would not be stopped.

However, since this idea was proposed by Bai Yujing, there will be no objection.

Luo Mingsang also sent people to look for spirit stone veins as soon as possible.

Luo Mingsang was very purposeful. She speculated that the spiritual stone veins might appear in the blessed places after the transformation of heaven and earth, as well as in some new lands.

So, the search and excavation of these lands began.

Sure enough, now there are harvests and rewards.

"I estimate that this small spiritual stone mine can dig up 10,000 spiritual stones... However, the spiritual stones are solid, so it is a bit difficult to dig them up."

"Also, there are many wild beasts around the spiritual stone veins that have become ferocious and powerful after being nourished by spiritual energy. They are extremely difficult to deal with."

The Xiang family army practices humanity.

Luo Mingsang's face was firm: "Send more people. Remember, only by controlling the spiritual stone veins can you have a say in the future cultivation world..."

In fact, it is not just Xiliang. All the major families and the Daxuan Kingdom are definitely also looking for information about spirit stone mines.

The purpose of Baiyujing's auction is very simple, which is to launch spirit stones.

Moreover...the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual stone can speed up cultivation.

If the spirit stone mines were mastered, the speed of cultivating practitioners would be accelerated, and even many people in the body storage realm would be born. The significance of mastering the spirit stone mines was naturally great.

…

Time passes by little by little.

Ever since Mo Tianyu comprehended the meaning of Tao, no one has comprehended the meaning of Tao in these days.

At this time, everyone understood the difficulty of comprehending the Tao.

And in the Nine Hells Secret Realm, there has been no news of anyone gaining the qualifications to comprehend the Dao Monument.

However, the practitioners from the major families who entered the secret realm spread another piece of news.

That is...

The progress of many practitioners at the First Hell Gate.

It's a competition.

And someone will send out the rankings in real time.

This allowed everyone outside the Wolong Ridge Secret Realm to learn about the current situation inside the prison gate.

"Kong Nanfei, progress: 180."

"Nie Zhangqing, progress: 180."

"Jingyue, progress: 170."

…

These are the top three progress of the prison gate adventure.

Progress represents the distance traveled in the first prison gate. Now, everyone knows that there are various checkpoints in the prison gate.

If you want to pass the level, you need strong strength.

However, secretly, the major families also regarded this ranking as a ranking of strength and talent.

Everyone has a competitive mentality and pays attention to the ranking.

…

The Overlord's mind was completely immersed in the Dao Monument.

He could feel the mysterious fluctuations emanating from the Dao Monument, and he even had a faint urge to comprehend it.

However, every time he wanted to comprehend the meaning of Tao, his mind began to become uneasy, and then the meaning of Tao that he had finally condensed would dissipate.

Fine beads of sweat had already appeared on Overlord's forehead.

Du Longyang comprehended the Dao meaning, the fifth level Dao meaning, and the brave spear meaning.

It was on par with Ye Shoudao's ruthless sword intent, but he was ultimately slightly defeated and ranked third.

Not long after Du Longyang comprehended the Tao, the empress also comprehended her own Tao.

There is nothing special about it. The Empress's Dao Instinct is also of the fifth rank, even ranking behind Ye Shoudao. She just outshines Young Master Tianxu.

Lu Fan was not surprised by the level of Du Longyang and others, as they had all comprehended the fifth-level sequence of Taoism.

After all, the talents of Du Longyang and others are not much different, and they are all equally matched.

This was just Lu Fan's estimate of them.

The only thing that surprised Lu Fan was Mo Tianyu's fourth-level Dao intention.

This guy... is really the type who can tell the difference.

Overlord and Liu Yuanhao were still contemplating.

Beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads, and they had no idea what level their Dao would reach.

There is no doubt that the higher the sequence level, the better.

No one wants to be the one who falls behind.

Finally, three days after the Empress comprehended the Dao...

Liu Yuanhao also realized it.

Unfortunately, it is only the sixth level of Daoism, the cold fire Daoism.

…

Under the Dao monument, only Overlord had not yet figured it out.

The enormous pressure, like a mountain pressing down on the Overlord, made it hard for him to breathe.

He used to be such a demon and such a glorious man.

However, now he was left behind in his attempt to comprehend the meaning of the Tao.

He seemed like a pathetic loser.

The Overlord clenched his fists and stared at the Taoist stele.

He didn't want to believe it!

Du Longyang and the Empress suddenly opened their eyes and looked at the Overlord.

He raised his eyebrows in surprise.

However, they discovered that there were two kinds of energy surging in the Overlord's body.

One of them is black, it is the evil energy.

The other one is golden and is the imperial aura.

The two collided with each other but did not blend with each other. It seemed that it was the mutual impact of these two energies that made the Overlord confused and hesitant.

"Two powers?"

Du Longyang frowned.

"This boy has great talent, but unfortunately, he seems to be entangled by the fetters in his heart. Coupled with the entanglement of the two forces, he has fallen into confusion."

The Empress nodded slightly, "He needs to make a choice. Biting off more than he can chew...

The empress felt a familiar aura from the Overlord.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The power of the imperial dragon energy represents the aura of the superior, the controller, the emperor.

The empress is also an emperor. She is the emperor of the Daqian Women's Kingdom and controls all the people.

However, her power is purer.

Du Longyang nodded. He agreed with the empress's point of view. In fact, at their level, they could easily see the problems with the Overlord.

Liu Yuanhao looked at Overlord and narrowed his eyes.

Overlord has reached a bottleneck!

This is...good news for him!

His eyes flickered.

He even wanted to use some underhanded tactics to interrupt the Overlord's comprehension of the Tao.

However, he didn't dare to do so. After all... doing such a despicable thing in public would probably attract the attention of powerful people.

He didn't know whether Du Longyang, the Empress and others, as well as the mysterious Lord of Baiyujing, would be furious because of his despicable means.

Besides, there were many people watching under the monument, so he didn't dare to act rashly.

Liu Yuanhao finally gave up his intention to take action.

Then he began to consolidate his Taoism.

As he comprehended the Dao more, he could feel his combat effectiveness improving.

Moreover, his control over fire is getting stronger and stronger.

Although he only mastered the sixth-level sequence of Taoism, Liu Yuanhao believed that his future would be much more than that.

He was not discouraged. Daoyi could become stronger, and he could become stronger! Overlord seemed to be in a state of madness.

Time passes by little by little.

The whole world was in a frenzy and storm.

The secret realm of Wolong Ridge is one thing, but the other important thing is about the spirit stone veins.

The news that Xiliang had found a spiritual stone mine spread.

For the major families, the importance of spirit stone veins is self-evident.

Shortly after Xiliang announced the discovery of a spiritual stone mine, news came out from Daxuan that a spiritual stone mine had been found in Tailing.

For a time, the whole world was in turmoil.

Many noble families gave up the secret realm of Wolong Ridge.

Instead, he devoted his energy to the process of searching for spirit stone veins.

Mineral veins were discovered and occupied by various forces.

However, there are undercurrents in the world.

Several noble families occupied a mineral vein and confronted each other.

There were also aristocratic families who fought madly for the mineral veins, killing each other to the death and staining the mineral soil with blood.

…

On the vast ocean.

Rays of light shot out at a rapid speed, as if cutting the sea water in half.

Following the message from Ye Shoudao and Master Tianxu.

Most of the geniuses on the human list of Tianyuan Domain have been dispatched.

The Human Ranking is a ranking list of the Jindan realm. The weakest person who can enter the Human Ranking is at the fifth Jindan level.

Feng Yilou sat upright on a wooden boat. He chose to go out to sea alone. In fact, the geniuses on the list all had their own pride.

Basically, they go out to sea alone, and rarely go with companions.

Feng Yilou narrowed his eyes, and his purple robe rustled.

As a seventh-turn golden elixir, Feng Yilou, ranked ninth on the Human List, fought bravely in that terrible world-destroying war and unexpectedly broke through the realm and reached the eighth-turn golden elixir.

Now he should be able to move up a notch in the rankings.

However, Feng Yilou did not update his ranking because before he had the chance to do so, he received a call from the Yuanying Realm elders to head to this unknown world to explore and improve himself.

"Explore the secret realm?"

The corners of Feng Yilou's mouth were slightly raised, giving him a hint of immortality.

He turned his head and looked to the other end of the vast ocean, where he could see many isolated boats sailing.

There is a familiar figure sitting on every lonely boat.

All the monsters on the human list are here.

After several days of trekking.

The geniuses from Tianyuan Domain have all set foot on the sea area of ​​Dongyang County.

When the governor of Dongyang County discovered these powerful men, he was immediately shocked and felt bitter. How come the giant whale just left and then a group of unknown and powerful practitioners came?

These people seemed to have come from the sea.

Could it be that there are powerful practitioners on the other side of the sea?

Fortunately, these people had no ill intentions. They claimed to be from the Tianyuan Territory and were from the ancient Tianyuan clan, and they mentioned the existence of Lu Fan.

Not many people know about the fusion of worlds.

Therefore, many of these people believed the ideas that were instilled in them before they set out, while most of them were skeptical and had no desire to pursue the matter.

When these people mentioned Lu Fan, the eyes of the Dongyang County Governor lit up.

He had put away his nervousness, but when he learned that these people were going to the secret realm of Wolong Ridge to practice and train, the governor of Dongyang County became nervous again.

Are these people here to provoke us?

But with Bai Yujing here, these people can't make any trouble.

The current governor of Dongyang County has an almost blind trust in Bai Yujing.

The governor of Dongyang County did not stop these people.

Because he understood that the cultivators and ordinary people in Dongyang County could not stop it at all.

The governor of Dongyang County looked at the departing figures and could not help but let out a sigh of relief.

I'm afraid the world is going to be lively.

…

Beiluo, an island in the middle of the lake.

Lu Fan slowly opened his eyes, and as he opened his eyes, invisible air waves began to surge on the island.

"It turns out that I can shorten the conversion time of the spiritual energy gained after integrating the Tianyuan Continent through practice and refining..."

The corners of Lu Fan's mouth slightly raised, and he was actually a little expectant.

Originally, it would take him ten months to convert all the spiritual energy he obtained.

However, as he practiced, he was able to shorten this time by playing the chess game "Yi Tian Shi".

Lu Fan leaned back on the Thousand Blade Chair.

His eyes were a little vacant as he stared at the little Yinglong swimming in the Benyuan Lake in the distance.

The little Yinglong seemed to sense Lu Fan's gaze and looked over with caution. It had been very well behaved recently, so it was not going to bully Long again, was it? However, it was overthinking.

Lu Fan had no intention of bullying little Yinglong at all.

He was thinking about the new chess game of "Yi Tian Shi".

The spiritual pressure chessboard floated quietly in front of Lu Fan. Leaning on the railing, Lu Fan supported his chin with one hand and reached into the chess box with the other hand to pick up a chess piece.

"It's time to set up a new chess game..."

Lu Fan smiled.

There was a slight twinkle in his eyes.

"Yitian's new chess game... the Yin-Yang game."

Lu Fan's eyes became brighter and brighter. The next moment, he raised his head and looked at the other end of the spiritual pressure chessboard.

Boom! A thick demonic energy emanated from Lu Fan's body, and demonic energy surged from his mouth, nose, and eyes.

Finally, the demonic energy gathered in front of Lu Fan and formed a human figure.

A figure with a majestic aura.

The figure had black hair and a black shirt. When he opened his eyes, his pupils were completely black.

Demon Lord Lu Fan!

"please."

Lu Fan chuckled.

The Demon Lord also looked at Lu Fan and chuckled.

He was floating in the air, outside the railing, hanging on the other end of the Reiatsu chessboard.

He raised his hand and picked up a black piece.

Click.

As the piece fell onto the chessboard, black and white light suddenly flowed on the board.

One black and one white.

The layout is like yin and yang.
