The Chess Game's Final Battle, the Dao of Slaughter Spans the Sky
At this moment, looking at the chaotic and disorganized Go Board, the Green-Robed Elder frowned deeply.
There was simply no clue to Chen Changqing's chess moves.
He used to make his moves very quickly.
But now, the speed of placing the pieces has slowed down.
The many Cultivators watching the battle were all astonished and began to discuss among themselves:
"Um?"
What happened?
Why is the piece not being placed yet?
"Chen Changqing doesn't understand chess at all. He's just randomly placing pieces. The senior player probably doesn't want to continue playing against him."
"I just don't understand, why would someone who doesn't even understand the principles of chess come here and embarrass themselves?"
"What a waste of time!"
"I originally thought the Mount Shu Holy Son, who ranked first on the Azure Dragon Ranking, was something extraordinary, but I didn't expect him to be so simple?"
"..."
By the lake, many Cultivators scoffed at Chen Changqing's actions, their mocking and sarcastic remarks echoing throughout the air.
Just then, everyone felt a tremor run through their bodies, as if they had instantly fallen into an endless ice cave.
I looked up and then I realized.
It turned out to be Bai Wuya White-Clad Spear King, coldly sweeping his gaze over them.
"Gurgle..."
Seeing this, how could the many Cultivators dare to say anything more? They couldn't help but swallow hard, and all of them chose to keep quiet.
After all, they had already learned this from Chen Changqing's way of addressing the White-Clad Spear King.
Bai Wuya also comes from the Mount Shu, and is Chen Changqing's senior martial uncle.
Right now, their mockery of Chen Changqing naturally displeased Bai Wuya, his senior martial uncle.
If it were anyone else, the Cultivators present would naturally not be afraid.
But this person is Bai Wuya, the White-Clad Spear King, Half-Step Heavenly Monarch, ranked among the top fifty on the Nine Provinces Continent's Powerhouse Ranking.
Such a terrifying being was not one they dared to offend.
Seeing everyone fall silent, the White-Clad Spear King shifted his gaze back to the chessboard, a question nagging at him:
"This kid is interesting."
"Those who don't understand the principles of chess dare to come and join the fun at this Heavenly Question Chess Game."
"That's quite bold!"
Bai Wuya secretly admired Chen Changqing, his junior apprentice.
At the same time, Xiaoqian stared intently at Chen Changqing, her delicate hands involuntarily clenching together.
Just now, when she heard the people around her belittling and mocking Chen Changqing, she almost wanted to teach them a lesson several times.
But in the end, he managed to suppress it.
After all, Chen Changqing was currently playing chess with the Green-Robed Elder, and Xiaoqian didn't want to distract Chen Changqing because of her impulsiveness.
"Young Master."
"You... you absolutely have to win!"
Xiaoqian prayed quietly.
Although Chen Changqing had previously stated that he did not understand the principles of chess, Xiaoqian still hoped that Chen Changqing could win the game.
At this moment, Chen Changqing's game of chess with the Green-Robed Elder was still ongoing.
As the rain continued, the atmosphere began to change.
However, Chen Changqing's moves were no longer blind madness, but rather a kind of instinctive art of Slaughter.
Each black piece that falls is like a Tempering a Thousand Times, forged weapon being unsheathed.
"Boom!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
The murderous aura emanating from the chess pieces was able to precisely strike the vulnerable points constructed by the white pieces.
Apart from that, he no longer pursued the life or death of local pieces.
They even voluntarily relinquished large swathes of seemingly important territory.
The black pieces he placed began to break down into smaller pieces, appearing and disappearing unpredictably on the huge Go Board.
At times, it pounces like a hungry wolf, tearing at the corners and edges where the white pieces are not yet stable.
Then, like a venomous snake striking, it attacked and retreated, leaving behind a hidden danger that left White with a thorn in its side.
At times, it is like a Sea Suppressing, using its few living stones as a foundation to withstand the overwhelming pressure from White's overwhelming momentum.
These were not things that Chen Changqing had planned in advance.
Rather, it was an unintentional, brutally constructed chess position created through sheer force.
Gradually, the killing intent in his moves became less chaotic, more purposeful, rhythmic, and determined.
It truly formed a pure Slaughter will that severed all constraints and shattered all illusions!
As Chen Changqing and Old He in green robes continued their game of chess.
The many Cultivators watching the battle from the lakeside gradually noticed the changes in the situation on the Go Board.
"This... how is this possible?"
In the ensuing silence, a Cultivator skilled in chess exclaimed in astonishment:
"He clearly doesn't understand the principles of chess, so why does every move seem to subtly... subtly align with some profound military strategy?"
"No, it's more extreme than the military strategists; it's a purer path of slaughter!"
As this Cultivator spoke, another Cultivator well-versed in the art of chess chimed in:
"Stop killing with killing, seek survival through destruction."
"Unexpectedly, this person is using chess pieces to orchestrate a cataclysmic event within the game!"
Upon hearing the words of these two Cultivators, the many Cultivators nearby were all bewildered and at a loss.
Just now, they thought Chen Changqing was just causing trouble, that he didn't understand chess at all, yet he dared to step forward and play against him.
But looking back now, it seems they all misunderstood Chen Changqing.
What's going on?
"Could it be... could it be that Chen Changqing has been hiding his true abilities all along?"
"It's not that he doesn't understand the principles of chess; rather, he was planning the overall strategy from the very beginning?"
"No... that can't be, right?"
The many Cultivators whispered among themselves.
"Um?"
At the same time, Bai Wuya was taken aback when he saw the situation on the chessboard, a hint of surprise flashing deep in his eyes.
"This kid..."
"It's getting more and more incomprehensible."
Even I can't tell whether he understands chess or not.
Xiaoqian's face lit up with joy upon seeing this.
"Young Master... is the Young Master about to turn the tide?"
Although she wasn't very knowledgeable about chess, she could tell from the surrounding discussions that the situation on the board seemed to be starting to favor Chen Changqing.
At the same time, the face of the Green-Robed Elder who was playing chess with Chen Changqing was already covered with solemnity.
But a hint of surprise flickered deep in his eyes.
You should know that he has been in charge of the Heavenly Question Chess Game countless years, and has seen countless geniuses come to challenge it.
These prodigies are trying to break the deadlock in various ways.
Whether exquisite, magnificent, or bizarre...
But the old man had never seen anyone break the deadlock in such a forceful and direct manner as Chen Changqing.
After a brief pause, the Green-Robed Elder continued to place his pieces.
Seeing this, Chen Changqing continued his relentless advance, placing a black piece!
Seeing Chen Changqing's unwavering resolve, a hint of admiration flashed in the Green-Robed Elder's eyes, and he couldn't help but cheer:
"Well!"
As he spoke, the old man's expression became excited.
Looking at Chen Changqing again was like looking at a priceless treasure.
Then, the old man concentrated, took a deep breath, and said again:
"Young friend, your chess skills are the best I've ever seen in my entire life!"
"Now, let me see just how pure your path of slaughter truly is, and whether it can shake the fundamental principles of heaven and earth."
