Chapter 156 Han Wei Wins
Luo Xuan and the others broke out in a cold sweat. What kind of chess game was this? Even when they watched the Eastern Emperor and His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor play chess in the Heavenly Court, it wasn't this terrifying.
Han Wei is only at the early stage of Mahayana, so how could she trigger such a terrifying phenomenon? What kind of monster is she? She can actually keep up with His Majesty's speed. What kind of terrifying computing power does she have to keep up with His Majesty's speed?
Within Han Wei's sea of consciousness, the 365 Divine Wisdom Fruits hanging on the Divine Wisdom Tree were like 365 secondary brains, all operating at breakneck speed. Such massive and terrifying calculations required the support of her vast divine sense, which Han Wei actually lacked.
Therefore, she could only use her life force as a substitute. It was fortunate that she had now evolved into the Wood King Body, otherwise she would not have been able to maintain such a terrifying consumption.
Snap!
The chess piece landed on the illusory chessboard with a soft sound, and various evolutions of the birth and death of heaven and earth appeared on the chessboard universe.
Large beads of sweat had already formed on Han Wei's forehead.
The onlookers around were already dumbfounded.
After seven days of playing, the black and white pieces reached a stalemate.
Upon seeing this, Immortal Lord Qingyi was surprised. This situation was a replay of the final game between the Heavenly Emperor and Yi Jun more than 400,000 years ago. Back then, Yi Jun was unable to solve this puzzle, and after sitting in meditation for 1,500 years, he died from exhausting his life force due to frantic calculations.
Han Wei surveyed the scene before her, her eyes gleaming with countless golden runes. She held only one belief: she couldn't lose, she absolutely couldn't lose, she had to win!
We must win!! We absolutely have to win!
Her 365 secondary brains seemed to sense her will and frantically calculated the way to victory. One by one, the Divine Wisdom Fruits were emitting white smoke, clearly overloaded.
Han Wei conjured a chess piece in her hand, which landed on the stalemated chessboard, and the situation was miraculously brought to life again.
The Heavenly Emperor's eyes lit up, and after a moment's thought, he continued to place his pieces.
Han Wei gritted her teeth and continued to use the Divine Wisdom Fruit to calculate the optimal next step.
Han Wei and the Heavenly Emperor played this game of chess for forty-nine days. In the end, Han Wei won against the Heavenly Emperor at the cost of destroying three hundred and sixty-five secondary brains.
"Hahahahahahahahahahaha..."
Overjoyed at her victory, Han Wei burst into laughter, her laughter growing increasingly triumphant and unrestrained. Her laughter echoed throughout the entire palace. Those around her were still in shock; they couldn't believe that Han Wei had truly won. She had actually defeated His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor—the very Heavenly Emperor!
She's just a little girl who hasn't even become an immortal yet, and she actually defeated His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor! This little girl is truly remarkable!
Truly, new talents emerge in every generation!
This little girl, who has already cultivated thirty-six strands of immortal energy at the early stage of Mahayana, is indeed a genius who defies the heavens and will surely achieve great things in the future.
Han Wei looked at the man sitting across from her and said with a smile, "You said that if I beat you, I can have three wishes."
The Heavenly Emperor's voice remained cold and clear: "What do you want?"
Han Wei looked at him, pretending to think, a sly glint in her eyes, and said, "I want you to cultivate with me."
"puff--"
Hearing this, Hongye, who was drinking, immediately spat out her drink.
Everyone around them stared at Han Wei in disbelief, as if they'd been struck by hundreds of thousands of lightning bolts. "Hey! What did you just say?"
Dual cultivation?
She actually wants to cultivate with His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor! This little girl is incredibly audacious!
"How dare you!" The dignified and austere Immortal Lord Qingxia immediately jumped out.
Han Wei glanced at him, showing no fear whatsoever. She looked at the Heavenly Emperor and asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?"
"Change it to another one," said the Heavenly Emperor.
"I don't want that, I want you to cultivate with me. What? Are you going back on your word?" Han Wei glared at him.
The golden eyes revealed beneath the Heavenly Emperor's mask were incredibly sharp, and an immense pressure emanated from him, causing all the surrounding immortals and gods to feel immense pressure. Luo Xuan was sweating profusely, and Wei Ruo'er also wanted to rush over and drag Han Wei away. However, no one dared to move.
The invisible pressure grew increasingly terrifying, causing both Qingxia Immortal Lord and Qingyi Immortal Lord to break out in a cold sweat. Xie Wei looked at Han Wei and also felt a chill for her. This little girl was incredibly bold. Even if she didn't know that this was His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, she should know that this was not someone she could afford to offend. How dare she make such an outrageous wish? She was truly courting death.
Surely His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor wouldn't actually kill this little girl in a fit of anger?
Han Wei also felt the terrifying pressure, but she stubbornly faced the Heavenly Emperor.
Finally, the Heavenly Emperor said, "Good!"
What? ! !
His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor agreed?!
Everyone's eyes widened, as if their eyeballs were about to pop out.

Outside the Chess Saint Palace, Xu Lingyue and the others were still waiting. Because their cultivation levels were not yet high enough to watch the game, they had been escorted out by Immortal Lord Qingyi. Once outside, they were all eager to know who had won, so they remained waiting, not daring to leave.
Xu Lingyue walked back and forth in the open space, while the people around her were either sitting or standing, or cultivating.
Suddenly, streaks of light flew out from the Chess Saint Palace, two of which landed on Xu Lingyue's side. Luo Xuan and Xie Wei were in those two streaks, and Xu Lingyue immediately came over upon seeing them.
"Senior Luo, Senior Xie, where is Weiwei?" Xu Lingyue looked around but couldn't see Han Wei.
"Um..." Luo Xuan hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"Who won? What about Han Wei?" Xu Lingyue asked again.
"Young friend Han won," Xie Wei said.
Everyone else was listening intently, and when they heard that Han Wei had won, they were all utterly shocked. This Fairy Han is amazing! She actually defeated the Palace Master of the Chess Saint Palace! In hundreds of thousands of years, she's the only one who has ever defeated the Palace Master of the Chess Saint Palace.
"She won? Weiwei won, really?" Xu Lingyue said excitedly.
Luo Xuan nodded.
"Then why doesn't she come out?" Xu Lingyue asked.
Both Luo Xuan and Xie Wei wore complex expressions, especially Luo Xuan, who had initially harbored feelings for Han Wei, but which had now turned into...
"Miss Han is...is..." Xie Wei didn't know what to say.
"I understand now. It must be that Weiwei wants the Palace Master to guide her. Is she cultivating?" Xu Lingyue said with a smile.
"Um... sort of..." Xie Wei said, "Isn't dual cultivation also a form of cultivation?"
Everyone suddenly realized something. Winning against the Palace Master of the Chess Saint Palace might even grant them some secret inheritance technique; perhaps Fairy Han was currently seeking some great opportunity. Thinking of this, everyone was filled with envy. Although no one knew the background of the Chess Saint Palace, it was undoubtedly terrifying. To receive guidance from the Palace Master, Fairy Han was truly blessed!
“In that case, I’ll go back to my temporary cave and wait for her,” Xu Lingyue said with a smile.
Luo Xuan forced a smile: "Alright."
