The monk who spoke before smiled slightly, "Interesting, let me try it."
He leaped to the stone wall, used his spiritual power as a chess piece, and suddenly tapped the chessboard.
Buzz!
Move!
On the chessboard, chess pieces were also condensed on their own initiative. The two were separated by an unknown number of years, but they actually played chess here across time.
However, after only three steps, the monk had gone from being confident to being at a loss, his eyes were red, and the spiritual power in his body began to become chaotic.
"Puff!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood, retreated five steps, and his eyes suddenly became dim, which was a sign that his Tao heart had suffered a severe blow.
"Interrogation of the Dao Heart?!"
Everyone's face changed, and they all looked at the old man Qingyang with unfriendly faces, "Old man Qingyang, you didn't say before that this was an interrogation of the Dao Heart."
The old man Qingyang frowned and said, "Since it is a secret realm, can the test to enter be simple? Do I need to tell you this?"
Everyone was silent. On the surface, they were in harmony, but in fact, they all had their own evil intentions.
In the secret realm, all kinds of possibilities can happen. Only those who get the last chance can be the final winner. Preserving strength and enjoying the fruits of others' labor is the kingly way.
The true meaning of the cultivator is only one sentence: It is better to die than to lose the Dao!
For a while, no one stepped forward, and the scene fell into a stalemate.
At this moment, a hoarse voice came out, sneering: "Taoist Tianyan, if you don't take action, then this secret realm will never be broken!"
Taoist Tianyan?
Everyone was slightly stunned, following the gaze of the person who spoke, and looked at an old man in a black robe.
The old man had a goatee, half black and half white hair and beard, a thin face, and stood alone in the last row of the team. He never spoke.
Lin Mufeng also turned his head in surprise, "Taoist Tianyan, is that the chess fanatic?"
"I didn't expect that Old Man Qingyang would even invite him here." Old Man Sun was also very surprised. The
reason why Taoist Tianyan is famous is because he loves chess so much that he almost plays chess with his life.
It was said that he was extremely gifted and had achieved the Great Success of Yuanying at the age of 40. However, he became obsessed with chess and not only stopped practicing, but his cultivation level even declined. He became a laughing stock and the sect was so angry that they wanted to expel him from the mountain gate!
At that time, this incident was a hot topic. There was not much gossip in the world of immortal cultivators. It was not easy to get such a strange person. Tianyan Taoist became a big celebrity and everyone knew him.
Now, more than 400 years have passed, and Tianyan Taoist's name has gradually been forgotten. Unexpectedly, it was mentioned again today, and people even saw him in person.
Lin Mufeng curiously extended his consciousness and immediately showed a look of surprise, "Huh? In the early stage of enlightenment? Did he break through to the distraction stage with the help of chess?"
"It's possible. After all, the path taken by geniuses is generally different from that of normal people." Old Man Sun nodded, "If it's him, the door to this secret realm may really be opened."
Taoist Tianyan didn't say anything. He kept staring at the chess game, and slowly walked to the stone wall without blinking.
It seemed that there was nothing else in the world that interested him except the chess game.
Under the gaze of everyone, he raised his hand and suddenly pointed at a position on the chessboard.
Buzz!
The brilliance on the stone wall became more brilliant, as if he was excited to finally meet his opponent after waiting for many years.
"There's hope!" Old Man Sun's eyes lit up, "It seems that someone is helping us this time."
"Wrong." Lin Mufeng shook his head and sighed, "There is only one way to solve this chess game. If you make a wrong move, you will lose the whole game! You will only get deeper and deeper!"
Old Man Sun looked at Lin Mufeng in surprise, "Old Man Lin, don't I know you? Don't pretend to know when you don't."
"Of course I don't understand, but there is a master standing behind me!" Lin Mufeng said lightly: "I have seen this chess game with a master, and I am fortunate to know how to crack it."
Old Man Sun's pupils suddenly widened, and he said in disbelief: "Are you serious?"
"Of course it's true." Lin Mufeng nodded, then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "As far as I know, this chess game is just the most low-end chess game for the masters, and it seems to be used for novices to learn."
"Low... low-end chess game?"
Old Man Sun's hair stood up, shocked to the extreme.
If this is just a low-end chess game, then what would a high-end chess game be like? How earth-shattering would it be?
Then, he suddenly thought of a possibility, and a frightened expression appeared on his face. He almost trembled and said, "Wait! You said you saw it from the master. Is it a coincidence? Or... did the master show it to you on purpose?"
Lin Mufeng's face was full of awe, and he said in a serious tone, "It's probably right. I'm afraid the master knows that the chess game in this secret realm is not something that our generation of monks can crack, so he specifically reminded me of it!"
Nothing is left out!
This is the real calculation without any omissions!
Old man Sun only felt that his heart was twitching and his scalp was numb. It seemed that there was a pair of eyes in the void staring at him, and an invisible hand was pushing everything.
Lin Mufeng and Old Man Sun looked at each other, and saw a strong awe in each other's eyes.
The words came to his lips, but he swallowed them back, not daring to say them out loud.
The world is the chessboard, and all living beings are chess pieces!
This is the realm of the masters!
Every time they experience something, they feel more and more that the realm of the masters is simply as high as a mountain, with no end!
It is unimaginable and unpredictable!
Lin Mufeng couldn't help but look at Tian Yan Taoist, and said in a complex tone: "There are thousands of great ways, and different paths lead to the same destination. No one knows which path is right and which path is wrong. The way of chess, the way of chess..."
"Although I don't know which way is right, I know that following the master is the right way." Old Man Sun looked at Lin Mufeng and said with envy, "If you don't want to be the master's chess piece, why not let me do it?"
"You?" Lin Mufeng glanced at Old Man Sun and smiled proudly, "Are you worthy?"
At this moment, Taoist Tianyan's face had become extremely pale, as white as paper, and beads of sweat as big as beans dripped down like raindrops. Finally, he trembled all over and spit out a mouthful of blood with a "wow".
"I was wrong, what on earth was wrong with me?" In his eyes, confusion and madness intertwined, staring at the chessboard, his Taoist heart was almost on the verge of collapse.
"Hey, let me do it."
Lin Mufeng stepped forward to help Taoist Tianyan up, raised his hand and pointed at the chessboard. A piece fell, and the pattern on the chessboard suddenly changed. The whole chessboard seemed to come alive.
Just by taking this step, the outcome seemed to be determined. The stone wall did not continue to place pieces, but the entire chessboard disappeared. With a "boom", the stone wall began to rise slowly!
