Upon hearing this, Lin Yu smiled good-naturedly, raised his hand and waved, and all the chess pieces that had landed on the chessboard immediately flew back obediently.
"I'll play black again this time!" Hao Yueshen naturally picked up black and placed it down first.
She now lives on Hongmeng Mountain.
Several years ago, after she regained consciousness from her cultivation, she immediately went to Hongmeng Mountain to find Lin Yu.
At first, Hao Yueshen came just to have some tea and play chess, but unexpectedly, the game of chess became more and more unstoppable.
At first, they played chess once every seven days, then once every three days, and later, the Hao Yueshen played chess every day.
Because going up and down Hongmeng Mountain was too troublesome, the Hao Yueshen eventually settled down and lived on Hongmeng Mountain.
Fortunately, Hongmeng Mountain is large enough to accommodate one more person, and with a beauty like the Hao Yueshen, Lin Yu naturally wouldn't refuse.
Another game was played, and once again, it ended in a crushing defeat for Hao Yueshen.
However, this time, Hao Yueshen neither shouted " Lin Yu, you're not letting me win at all!" nor cheated by saying "This round doesn't count, let's play another round!" Instead, he had a long-lost solemn expression.
Even Lin Yu, in his current state, found this expression somewhat strange; he couldn't understand what had suddenly changed about Hao Yueshen.
Before Lin Yu could even ask, Hao Yueshen had already spoken.
" Lin Yu, are you really confident about what's inside the crack?"
Lin Yu couldn't help but smile slightly upon hearing this. He hadn't expected that this girl would be so serious for such a rare occasion, and it was for this very reason. However, looking at her earnest expression, Lin Yu felt a mix of emotions.
"I don't think my skills are anything special."
Upon hearing this, Hao Yueshen was slightly taken aback, then said, "Invincible!"
Even if the current Hao Yueshen were to utter these two words, he would be completely convinced.
Since acquiring the new cultivation technique, Hao Yueshen's cultivation has reached the Peak of the Late Immortal Official Realm. However, when she tried to probe Lin Yu's realm, she found it to be completely blank.
What does this prove? It only proves that Lin Yu's strength is still far superior to his own!
That's why I couldn't investigate him.
That attempt gave Hao Yueshen a long-lost feeling of "how insignificant she was." Facing Lin Yu, she even had the illusion of a mayfly trying to shake a tree.
Even with the accumulation of countless reincarnations in the " Reincarnation Immortal Scripture," Hao Yueshen still found Lin Yu incredibly unfathomable.
Sometimes, when Hao Yueshen looked at Lin Yu, she felt that what she had seen was only the tip of the iceberg of Lin Yu's abilities!
The real Lin Yu is like the glacier in the far north; only a small part floats above the surface, while the larger part is always hidden below the sea!
Hearing this, Lin Yu smiled again, "Then what are you worried about for me?"
Hao Yueshen was stunned again after hearing this. Right, why was she worrying about this for no reason?
Lin Yu is far stronger than me. If Lin Yu can't handle this, then there's no point in worrying.
Thinking about this, Hao Yueshen suddenly felt that she had come to terms with things.
"Don't worry, it's just that staying in this Southern Heaven Great Domain for so long has been a bit boring."
"It's a good opportunity to go out and have a look around, why not?"
Lin Yu said with a smile, then set up the chessboard. "Let's play chess!"
Hao Yueshen could only nod blankly. She felt that what Lin Yu said made sense, but she still felt uneasy.
Even Hao Yueshen himself was unwilling to admit that this unease did not stem from a lack of confidence in Lin Yu's strength, but rather from a deeper level of worry.
"Boom!"
Another two weeks later, a loud bang echoed through the night sky once more.
The narrow crack above the Southern Heaven Great Domain has widened considerably in the past half month.
After a deafening roar, a massive portal of light, large enough to traverse the entire Southern Heaven Great Domain, slowly emerged from the crack.
The portal of light faced the Southern Heaven Great Domain, and it looked extremely strange.
"Bang!", "Bang!", "Bang!"...
One after another, the sound of synchronized footsteps echoed from inside the portal, and ripples emanated from within it.
Upon closer inspection, the ripples showed no offensive intent whatsoever; they were entirely used to reinforce the spatial strength of the Southern Heaven Great Domain.
At this moment, all the cultivators in the Southern Heaven Great Domain looked up. This time, the situation with the seven-colored rift seemed different from the previous ones!
What's going on?
Judging from this, the other party doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards the Southern Heaven Great Domain; otherwise, why would they help them reinforce the space?
Under the curious gaze of the cultivators, the three formations slowly emerged from the portal.
Each of these figures carried an aura that made all living beings in the Southern Heaven Great Domain tremble. Some beings could no longer withstand it and collapsed to the ground, shivering.
Immortal Realm Middle Stage Second Layer!
This is the lowest level of strength in the formation.
Most of the cultivators in the formation were at the Late-stage Immortal Realm.
Three formations, each with 10,000 people, totaling a full 30,000 powerful cultivators at the Late-stage Immortal Realm, arrived simultaneously in the Southern Heaven Great Domain.
Each formation carried a unique banner, so large that it blotted out the sky and moved without wind. Each banner had a different pattern, and their mere appearance caused countless beings in the Southern Heaven Great Domain to be caught off guard.
Before this, none of the living beings in the Southern Heaven Great Domain had imagined that the rift contained such a terrifying existence.
"Pat... pat... pat..."
Following the three formations came a series of leisurely footsteps.
Compared to the soldiers' uniformity, these footsteps sounded more scattered and undisciplined.
This time, thirty cultivators emerged, also divided into three groups of ten.
Among these thirty people, two men and one woman stood at the very front.
As the two men and one woman appeared, the guards from the three formations simultaneously knelt down. "Greetings, Senior Brother Xu Xiaotian!"
"Greetings, Senior Sister Hong Liuqin!"
"Greetings, Master Zhenren!"
The unified sound resounded throughout the entire Southern Heaven Great Domain.
"Tsk tsk, how filthy." After a long while, one of the men, known as "Master True Disciple," finally spoke. He fanned himself with his hand, as if smelling the air of the Southern Heaven Great Domain would be terrible.
"It's not that great, but it's better than I expected." Xu Xiaotian also spoke up. He was dressed in a white robe and had a handsome appearance, but his words carried a contemptuous tone.
"How come there's still Immortal Qi in this world? Could it be that we didn't harvest it all last time?" Hong Liuqin spoke up, her tone still dissatisfied.
