Emperor Xi Game

A moment later, the spaceship arrived beside a huge lake radiating multicolored light. Upon seeing this, the Ancestral Dragon Clone immediately stopped and walked out of the Dharma Transmission Palace.

The Golden Armor Man addressed the Ancestral Dragon Clone, saying, "I am Jin Yong, an elder of the Golden Rock Tribe. May I ask your name, brother? Are you here in this Mirage Forest for training?"

After this period of deduction, the Ancestral Dragon Clone had learned the language of this world. To avoid unnecessary trouble, the Ancestral Dragon Clone decided to use a pseudonym.

Therefore, he spoke up, saying, "Brother Jin Yong is right. My name is Gu Long. I recently broke through to the Void True God and came to this Mirage Forest for some training!"

After he finished speaking, the Ancestral Dragon Clone was stunned. Gulanxiu's surname was Gu, and the Ancestral Dragon Clone was a dragon, so he was named Gu Long. He never expected that his name would be the same as that of a martial arts master from his previous life.

Adding to the coincidence, the presence of Jin Yong before him made Ancestral Dragon Clone secretly marvel at the coincidence.

Jin Yong clearly didn't know Jin Yong or Gu Long, so he didn't act particularly special. Instead, he smiled and said, "So it's Brother Gu Long Gu Long! I admire you for daring to come out and train alone. However, this Mirage Forest is really dangerous. This is the outer area, which is alright, as there are only some True God and Void True God Level beasts. In the inner area, there are Eternal True God Level beasts. As for the core area, it is said that Chaos Master Level beasts live there. With our cultivation levels, we can only venture into the outer area."

The Ancestral Dragon Clone smiled and nodded, saying, "Thank you for the reminder, Brother Jin Yong. I really don't know much about this Enchanted Forest. If I hadn't met Brother Jin Yong this time, I might have accidentally wandered into a dangerous area without realizing it."

At this moment, a young man at the True God Level behind Jin Yong excitedly spoke up, "Senior Gu Long, have you been to many places? Could you tell us some interesting stories from your travels?"

The Ancestral Dragon Clone shook his head and said, "I haven't been through the breakthrough for long either, and I just came out, so I haven't gone anywhere else."

"I see! Senior Gu Long, if you have nothing to do, you are welcome to visit my Golden Rock Tribe! Besides Jin Yong, our tribe also has two elders at the Void True God Level. You can exchange ideas." The young man who spoke earlier continued.

"Jin Yu!" Seeing that the young man had sold out the tribe's strength in the blink of an eye, Jin Yong scolded him.

However, Jin Yong then said to the Ancestral Dragon Clone, "Brother Gu Long, if you have nowhere to go, you are welcome to visit my Golden Rock Tribe."

Our Golden Rock Tribe will certainly welcome you with open arms.

Upon hearing this, the Ancestral Dragon Clone thought for a moment and then said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Jin Yong!"

The Ancestral Dragon Clone has just arrived on this Origin Continent. He's not familiar with anything here, so he'll use the Golden Rock Tribe as a temporary stop to familiarize himself with his location and fully convert his divine power before deciding on his next step!

Seeing that the Ancestral Dragon Clone had agreed, Jin Yong said to it, "Brother Ancestral Dragon Clone Gu Long, come with me!"

With that, he flew off in one direction. Seeing this, the Ancestral Dragon Clone quickly gave chase, and after about half a day, Jin Yong brought the Ancestral Dragon Clone to their tribe.

What he saw was a valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. The valley walls were carved with various strange and mysterious patterns, and inside the valley were rows of unique houses. The Ancestral Dragon Clone roughly estimated that there were about ten thousand houses.

Three exceptionally tall palaces formed a distinctive triangular shape, enveloping the entire tribe and immediately revealing the noble status of the cultivators residing there.

After chatting along the way, the Ancestral Dragon Clone had become somewhat familiar with Jin Yong and the others. According to Jin Yong, he had brought the four most outstanding young people from the tribe out to broaden their horizons and allow them to mature, hoping that their cultivation could make a breakthrough and that they could successfully become disciples of the Guiyun Sect when Guiyun Sect its doors to disciples a thousand years later.

Gulanxiu became quite interested in the matter of the Guiyun Sect accepting disciples, so he asked Jin Yong for more information. He then learned that Guiyun Sect was one of the Ten Great Sects in the Ten Thousand Realms Kingdom, and its Sect Leader was a super strong person at the God King realm, whose influence extended to dozens of Chaos Prefecture.

The Guiyun Sect publicly recruits disciples once every ten thousand years, and only True God and Void True God who follow the Law system are accepted. As long as you can arrive at the Guiyun Sect Guiyun Sect's mountain gate before the sect recruits disciples, you are qualified to participate in the assessment.

Finally Guiyun Sect will recruit disciples based on the assessment results.

According to Jin Yong, when he True God Realm, he participated in the Guiyun Sect's recruitment of disciples several times and eventually succeeded in becoming Outer Sect Disciple of the Guiyun Sect Guiyun Sect. However, he had not been able to break through to the Eternal True God realm over the years, which made him increasingly marginalized within the Guiyun Sect. In the end, he had no choice but to return to his tribe to cultivate. However, his Divine Power Burning Secret Art was passed down by the Guiyun Sect, and with the help of the Divine Power Burning Secret Art, his strength was considered quite good among Void True God.

Jin Yong's words provided the Ancestral Dragon Clone with a considerable amount of information. For instance, it revealed that this place was the Ten Thousand Realms Kingdom, one of the two Ten Thousand Realms Kingdom kingdoms on the Origin Continent. Gulanxiu knew little about the Myriad Realms Kingdom Lord was one of only two Dao Ultimate Realm experts in this Reincarnation Era the Origin Continent, possessing immense strength, nearly reaching the limits of the Origin Continent. Apart from this, the original work provided limited descriptions of the Ten Thousand Realms Kingdom, and the Ancestral Dragon Clone did not have much detailed information.

However, the Ancestral Dragon Clone became interested in the Guiyun Sect's open acceptance of disciples. After all, the Guiyun Sect was a God King power, and its sect's inheritance was no worse than that of Duan Donghe Inheritance, enough for Gulanxiu to use for a long time.

At this moment, two Void True God Level elders flew out from the tribe. One of them, a bald elder, said to the Ancestral Dragon Clone, "Please forgive our lack of proper welcome! I, Jin Guang, am the Great Elder of the Golden Rock Tribe, and this is Jin Yao, the Second Elder of the Golden Rock Tribe."

The Ancestral Dragon Clone smiled and said, "The Gu Long has come uninvited, which is an intrusion upon your esteemed tribe and the two elders."

After a round of mutual flattery, the Ancestral Dragon Clone settled down in the Golden Rock Tribe.

The Ancestral Dragon Clone's avatar was placed in a location right next to Jin Yong's palace, presumably to have a Void True God keep an eye on him. However, the Ancestral Dragon Clone didn't seem to care much about this; it was normal for a stranger like him to be on guard when he suddenly showed up.

Moreover, the Ancestral Dragon Clone had no intention of harming this tribe, so he had a clear conscience.

Just as the Ancestral Dragon Clone was settling down and chatting with Jin Yong, a young man named Jin Yu approached Ancestral Dragon Clone and said, "Senior Ancestral Dragon Clone! How about we play a game of the Gu Long Emperor Xi Game?"

"The Emperor Xi Game?" Ancestral Dragon Clone asked curiously. In the original Duan Donghe said that on the Origin Continent, from the most powerful and invincible experts to newborn children, everyone liked to play the Emperor Xi Game. The Emperor Xi Game is ever-changing, and there are no two games that are exactly the same. As for Luo Feng, they only solved 10081 basic endgames.

Gulanxiu was naturally interested in this kind of entertainment activity that could test one's comprehension, but he didn't know the rules, let alone how to play against someone.

Jin Yong, standing to the side, smiled and said to the Ancestral Dragon Clone, "Jin Yu is the most talented person of our Golden Rock Tribe this generation. In terms of his mastery of the Emperor Xi Game's Technique, only our three Void True God Level elders in the entire Golden Rock Tribe can defeat him. However, he is only True God after all, and his calculation ability is far inferior to ours. So, Brother Gu Long, there's no need to be polite. Just defeat him cleanly and decisively and let him know that there are always people more capable than you!"

The Ancestral Dragon Clone said with a wry smile, "To be honest, Brother Jin Yong, my tribe is located in a remote area, and games like the Emperor Xi Game are not popular there, so I don't know how to Emperor Xi Game it."

Upon hearing this, Jin Yong assumed that the Ancestral Dragon Clone was deliberately making excuses, so he nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then let's forget about it!"

"

Jin Yu, standing to the side, excitedly said, "Senior, you don't understand the rules of the Emperor Xi Game? I can teach you!" He then began to carefully explain the various rules and solutions of the Emperor Xi Game to the Ancestral Dragon Clone.

At this moment, Jin Yu was extremely excited. Having lived in the tribe all his life, he had never won against any Void True God. But now he had found an opportunity to win against the Ancestral Dragon Clone, a novice who did not understand the Emperor Xi Game's Formation.

Gulanxiu was also interested in the Emperor Xi Game, so he listened attentively to Jin Yu's explanation and soon understood how to solve Emperor Xi Game.

This Emperor Xi Game is, to put it bluntly, very similar to Go on Earth in my previous life, but compared to Go, which is played on a limited two-dimensional board with nineteen horizontal and nineteen vertical lines.

The chessboard of the Emperor Xi Game is five-dimensional and infinite. In addition to the three-dimensional length, width and height, it also has the two dimensions of time and space, which makes the game of the Emperor Xi Game's Game increasingly complex. Even God King level expert cannot calculate it all. Of course, for those whose strength is not too strong, the difficulty must be set before the game begins in order to continue playing.

The Ancestral Dragon Clone smiled at Jin Yu and said, "I understand the general idea! Let's begin!"

Jin Yu nodded and said, "In that case, senior, I won't stand on ceremony! I am merely a True God, so let's proceed with the 1008 battles!"

As he spoke, he pointed his finger into the air, and a divine power remained in the void.

The Ancestral Dragon Clone smiled slightly upon seeing this, and similarly tapped his finger lightly, leaving a divine power mark in the void.

Seeing the Ancestral Dragon Clone's clone make its move, Jin Yu quickly placed a divine power mark as well.

The two of them took turns placing divine power imprints on each other's hands, and soon the void was filled with a dense array of divine power imprints.

The two divine power imprints were clearly distinct and did not interfere with each other, but after a short while, they each formed a mysterious Secret Pattern Diagram.

Jin Yong, who was standing to the side, glanced at the scene and knew that Jin Yu had most likely lost. Jin Yu obviously knew that the Ancestral Dragon Clone had just learned the rules of the Emperor Xi Game and wanted to finish the battle quickly. He devoured the secret runes of the Ancestral Dragon Clone before the Ancestral Dragon Clone was familiar with the rules, leaving himself no way out. Now, however, his momentum failed, and his efforts were exhausted.

Sure enough, after a few moments, Jin Yu realized with dismay that the spot he was supposed to place his piece on had been occupied by the Ancestral Dragon Clone, and he could no longer form his Secret Pattern Diagram. Thinking this, he simply said, "Senior Ancient Gu Long! I lose this round! Let's play another one!"

At this moment, the Ancestral Dragon Clone also became interested, nodded and said, "Very well! You may make your move!"

Seeing this, Jin Yu nodded and left another divine power mark in the void.

The same was true of the Ancestral Dragon Clone, which left behind divine power in the void.

The two exchanged several blows in the void.

In this game, Jin Yu clearly learned from the previous defeat and played more steadily. With each divine power strike, he aimed to avoid mistakes rather than seek merit, and then looked for the mistakes of the Ancestral Dragon Clone to find an opportunity to counterattack.

However, by this time, the Ancestral Dragon Clone had become familiar with the rules of the Emperor Xi Game, and its cultivation, will, and comprehension were far superior to Jin Yu's. Therefore, even though Jin Yu did not make any mistakes, he lost the game much faster.

Seeing this, Jin Yu looked slightly disappointed. He believed he had performed to the best of his ability in this game, and even now he couldn't find any flaws in his moves. But even so, he still lost inexplicably. He thought that even if he lost, he wouldn't lose so quickly, but the result was a huge blow to him.

Jin Yong, an observer with a clearer perspective, was able to easily understand that the reason for all this was the absolute difference in comprehension and calculation ability between the two.

In this situation, even if the two players play against each other countless times, the outcome will not change.

However, Jin Yong didn't quite understand some of the moves Ancestral Dragon Clone, so he became a little interested and said to the Ancestral Dragon Clone, "Brother Gu Long! Seeing your game, I'm itching to play too. How about we play a game together?"

At this moment, the Ancestral Dragon Clone was most interested in the Emperor Xi Game, so he quickly nodded and agreed, saying, "Brother Jin Yong is interested, so I will naturally accompany you at the risk of my life! You and I are both Void True God, so let's play the standard 10081-sided game!"

"10081 sides!" Jin Yong was somewhat surprised. Generally speaking, a Emperor Xi Game with 10081 sides requires the will and comprehension of Eternal True God Level to grasp the overall situation. With Jin Yong's current strength, it would be quite difficult for him to play.

However, he couldn't afford to lose face, and he wanted to see if the Ancestral Dragon Clone truly possessed the strength or if he had misunderstood the difficulty of the Emperor Xi Game. Therefore, he gritted his teeth and said, "Alright! Brother Gu Long! You go first!"

The Ancestral Dragon Clone didn't hold back either, placing a piece directly in the void. Jin Yong followed suit, placing a piece as well. Then, the two exchanged pieces back and forth in the void, and soon the Secret Pattern Diagram appeared.

At this moment, Jin Yong frowned and hesitated to make a move. After a brief start, Jin Yong's calculation ability was starting to fall behind. He calculated dozens of points but still couldn't find the optimal place to place his piece.

After a moment, Jin Yong gritted his teeth and placed a piece at what he considered the most reliable spot. Seeing that his Secret Pattern Diagram had completely stabilized, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, feeling fortunate that he had made the right move.

However, at this moment, the Ancestral Dragon Clone in the void, and the Secret Pattern Diagram of the Ancestral Dragon Clone was fully formed. A powerful energy erupted in the void, instantly shattering Jin Yong's Secret Pattern Diagram.

Upon seeing this, Jin Yong calmly said, "Brother Gu Long's calculation ability is astonishing! I've lost this round!"

Although he spoke calmly, Jin Yong was far from calm. He had already performed exceptionally well in this round, yet he still suffered a crushing defeat. This was a clear difference in their level of understanding.

Previously, in the Enchanted Forest, he discovered that the Ancestral Dragon Clone's clone was not as strong as him, and thought that the Ancestral Dragon Clone lacked comprehension. But now it seems that this is not the case. The Ancestral Dragon Clone has unlimited potential, so he must befriend him.
