89 The first set of aeroplane chess in the Heluo dynasty
When the shaking stopped, they found that the world in front of them had changed greatly.
The crisscrossed paths still existed; however, there were many more things on the open land.
Some had statues, some had stone tablets, some had boxes, and some even had a circular River flowing around the mountain.
It was a wonder, but he didn’t know what it meant.
At the four ends of the sky and earth, there was a stone platform.
Everyone was at a loss. Only Li Chu seemed to be deep in thought.
If this chessboard was shrunk to a piece of paper, he would be quite familiar with it.
However, he still lacked one thing.
“The hidden Dragon chess game is the work of Fu Yuan’s life,” the old man said loudly. At the beginning of the game, four people are required to participate.”
East, South, West, and North. Each of the four directions needs one person to start. Each of you will be a Walker and advance in order.
“I will raise a six Rens divine die in the clouds that is only controlled by the heavenly Dao and can not be affected by anyone. The number that the six Rens divine dice rolled out each time was the number of steps you could move forward. Our goal is to return to the central sacred mountain.”
“Each of you will take the same number of steps back to the central holy mountain, but there will be different fortuitous encounters along the way, whether good or bad.”
no matter what, we must act strictly according to the rules. Violators will be directly expelled from the secret realm.
“How long it will take for you to return to the central holy mountain will depend on your calculations, strength, and luck.”
“At that time, the first person to reach the central holy mountain will receive the dragonification fruit as a reward. The rewards for the rest of the rankings are different.”
“Whoever wants the dragonification fruit must be the first to come out. Do you understand?”
Following his introduction, the White clouds in the sky quickly gathered above everyone’s heads and soon formed a hollow cloud layer.
In the empty space of the clouds, a huge die was revealed. Only one side of the die was exposed through the empty space, and the number on it was shining with golden light. The other sides were hidden in the clouds.
The absolutely fair six Rens divine dice that was only affected by the heavenly Dao.
The old man’s face was filled with excitement, like a child who had finally found a playmate after waiting for a long time.
The rest of the people were still a little confused. It was obvious that this was the first time they had seen such a strange play.
Li Chu could already confirm that Jian Jia was right.
That’s right, this thing was aeroplane chess!
Before he was nine years old, he was already proficient in all kinds of chess, such as Chinese Chess, military chess, Chinese Checkers, go, Gomoku, black and white, International Chess, and so on. He was unrivaled in all of them.
This also led to no children willing to play chess with him.
It was too boring.
Until one day, someone came to school with a box of things called aeroplane chess.
His legend of invincibility was shattered on the spot.
At a young age, he didn’t understand why this kind of sinful game that relied on luck to win was called a chess game.
The failure that day had left a deep impression on him.
He did not expect to encounter this large-scale fantasy version of the Kongtong flying chess again in another world many years later.
In this way, Fuyuan Zhenren could be considered as a talent that was ahead of the time.
“Yingluo, now you have to choose the person who will participate in the chess game.” The old man’s voice warned.
There was no dispute about the candidate.
Jiang shouyin was on the side of the shenxu temple, of course, while muscular and short were the contestants who had come to hand him the towel.
Li Chu was undoubtedly going to do it himself, and the Fox girl was also an excellent cheerleader.
Li Xinyi, bi Luo and Qian Qian had entered the secret realm alone.
“Alright!” After the old man asked the candidates, he finally confirmed, ” “Guanghan sect, Chaotian Palace, shenxu temple, and deyun temple, stand in all four directions!”
When they heard the name deyun temple, they all looked at Li Chu.
I feel like there’s something strange between us.
However, in this place, this strange thing was the strongest Kasaya.
They all knew that if it was not for the mechanism of the game, they would not have had any chance of competing with Li Chu.
Therefore, it felt even weirder.
“Go!”
The old man shouted and waved his sleeves. A gust of wind swept Li Chu’s body up into the clouds. In the blink of an eye, he had crossed half of the secret realm and arrived at the stone platform on the north side.
At this moment, Jiang shouyin was in the East, bi Luo was in the South, Li Xinyi was in the West, and Li Chu was in the North. They could no longer see each other.
However, the next second, the clouds shook and the enlarged figures of the four people were revealed.
This way, their every move could be clearly seen.
“First round, East!”
The old man’s voice reached high into the sky, turning into Rolling Thunder that could be clearly and loudly transmitted to everyone’s ears.
He waved his sleeve, and the six Rens divine dice moved without any wind. It rolled in the clouds and made a loud rumbling sound.
Rumble-
Stop.
The first roll of the six Rens divine dice stopped at the number ” three.
“Easterner, advance three steps.” The old man’s voice was heard again.
Jiang shouyin didn’t have to move. A gust of wind lifted him up and slowly moved him to the third step.
The chessboard didn’t look big from the top of the holy mountain, but when it landed on the ground, it was dozens of feet long. The square covered an area of several square feet, which was quite wide.
Perhaps it was for newcomers to get used to, the first six steps in all directions were clean, and there was no wonder.
But if he went any further, it would be hard to predict what would happen.
……
Southerner, six.
the West traveler, four.
“Northwalker, three.”
After the first round, everyone went on their own way, and nothing happened.
The second round began.
The six Rens divine dice rumbled and finally stopped at six.
“Easterner, advance six steps.”
They had made a lot of progress, but Jiang shouyin wasn’t in a hurry to be happy. Instead, he looked over cautiously.
There was a huge box in the empty space.
[ Eastern traveler, please open the treasure chest. ] The old man continued.
Jiang shouyin was a little nervous. He still remembered the experience of being pranked by the Fuyuan Zhenren in the cave. This guy didn’t let people rest easy even when he was dead. There might be something fishy about the game he designed when he was alive.
He wouldn’t be surprised even if there was a pile of xxx in the box.
The treasure chest opened.
There was a long and narrow green token inside.
“The clear sky token! The good wind borrows strength to send me to the blue clouds, and the Easterner advances ten steps!”
Jiang shouyin heaved a sigh of relief and thought to himself, ” it seems that I have wronged senior Fu Yuan.
The breeze lifted him up again, sending him ten steps forward. This way, the gap between him and the other three was huge.
yay! the ugly and short men on the peak also cheered.
However, the cheers soon came to an abrupt end.
It turned out that as soon as Jiang shouyin landed on the ground, he felt the ground under his feet tighten. Two vines suddenly sprang out of the grass and bound his whole body in an instant. They were extremely strong!
the Easterner has encountered a green vine monster, ” the old man continued. if he can’t break free before the next round begins, he will be considered to have given up on the round.
Jiang shouyin frowned and circulated his genuine Qi faster. However, the green vine seemed to grow stronger when it encountered a stronger opponent. The stronger he struggled, the stronger the binding force. Not only was he unable to break free, but it also gradually made it difficult for him to breathe.
He couldn’t help but curse in his heart, old thief!
I knew you wouldn’t be so kind!
On the peak of the mountain, ugly and strong and short also jumped up and asked,”What is this?”
“Sending my little uncle-master into a trap, isn’t this a joke?”
“Are you questioning the spirit official?” the old man glanced at them.
His sleeves fluttered even though there was no wind, as if he was about to make a move.
The two Sharkmen shrunk their necks and didn’t dare to ask anymore.
The six Rens divine dice turned again, rumble-
“Southerner, advance four steps.”
Bi Luo looked at the place where she wanted to go. There was a ball of fire there, but she didn’t know what it represented.
Just as her body landed on the ground, she heard a loud explosion!
The flames spread out in an instant, burning the entire open space.
She suddenly understood that he was forcing her to retreat!
However, she didn’t retreat. Instead, she made a gesture with her fingers and a burst of ice-cold true Qi was released from her body.
Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu
A burst of white smoke rose in spirals, and the violent icy air extinguished the flames in an instant.
The old man’s eyes showed approval. He waved his sleeves again, and the die turned in the air.
“West Walker, advance two steps.”
Li Xinyi stuck out her tongue. She hadn’t walked out of the first six steps yet.
It was a little slow, but it was hard to say if it was a blessing or a curse.
It was Li Chu’s turn.
“Northwalker, advance six steps!”
Hearing the old man’s voice, Li Chu looked around and saw a statue of a God in golden armor standing on the sixth step. The statue looked angry and had its fists raised high in the air.
“If you land on the statue, you’ll have to withstand a punch from the Golden-armored puppet!” The old man said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chu’s figure landed on the ground.
Sure enough, before he could stand still, the Golden-armored sculpture suddenly came to life! He locked his eyes on Li Chu and raised his fist high up in the air, bringing it down with a strong wind-breaking sound!
Boom-bang!
Li Chu raised his palm and blocked the huge fist with ease.
This scene looked rather casual.
It was as if the Golden armored puppet had deliberately let the water go, raising it high and then gently dropping it.
But only Li Chu knew.
This punch was very heavy!
It even caused his palm to feel a pain that lasted for three seconds.
……
“Eh?”
The old man seemed a little surprised and muttered, ” “Could it be that the spiritual energy of the strongman puppet was leaked? That shouldn’t be the case.”
However, he did not affect the progress of the game. He quickly looked to the East.
Jiang shouyin saw bi Luo and Li Chu solve the problem so easily. If he delayed any longer, he would be called off.
At that moment, he could not care less about the vines that were tightly entangled with him. With a clang, he summoned the Atlas sword.
“Slash!”
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Sword manipulation with divine intent.
A few sword lights flashed in succession, and the entangled green vine monster was cut into several pieces and fell to the ground.
However, because the Kasaya was wrapped too tightly, Jiang shouyin’s clothes were inevitably affected by the sword Qi, and there were a few long and narrow holes.
His image had completely lost its previous calm.
However, he couldn’t care about that now.
Seeing that he had broken free, the old man smiled and turned the die.
Another six.
“Easterner, advance six steps.”
Jiang shouyin felt that he was quite lucky when he heard the number.
At present, it could be said that he was ahead of everyone else.
At the place he was going to, there was also a statue of a God in golden armor.
Jiang shouyin remained cautious, but he wasn’t too afraid.
The known was never as scary as the unknown. After seeing how easily Li Chu had resisted the Golden armored deity, he felt that this thing was not very powerful.
As long as he didn’t let his guard down, there shouldn’t be too much trouble.
He thought to himself as he landed on the ground.
“If you land on the statue, you will have to withstand a punch from the Golden-armored puppet!” The old man’s voice rang out.
Jiang shouyin didn’t need to be reminded. He was ready.
He conjured an incantation gesture with both hands and raised it up high. A golden and shimmering nine palaces Eight Trigrams wheel appeared in the air.
A solid shield!
They waited in formation!
Boom-bang-
The Golden-armored deity’s fist smashed down. In an instant, Jiang shouyin felt as if a savage beast had rushed over from thousands of miles away. Without slowing down, it crashed into his shield.
It shattered.
Suffocating.
It all happened in an instant.
Then, his entire body was thrown out. After flying out for a few hundred feet, he landed on the ground and plowed out a tunnel of a few hundred feet.
Fortunately, the Golden armored man’s attack was not meant to hurt anyone.
Even though the strength of this punch was terrifyingly great, it only sent him flying, and not a trace of force penetrated his body.
However, when he got up, he found that he was almost back to the starting point!
“Easterner, fall back twenty-three steps!” The old man said.
It was a night before liberation.
Jiang shouyin wanted to cry but had no tears.
Why was this golden armored man, Tao Wu, so different from what he had imagined?
Were they sure that the puppets that hit him and Li Chu were the same?
From the view in the clouds, he could see the other people’s reactions to this punch. They were all somewhat surprised.
Li Chu was also slightly surprised.
It didn’t matter if others were surprised, but when he was, it seemed like he was mocking her.
It was as if he was talking about Yingluo.
It can’t be, right?
It turns out that this thing can also send people flying, Yingluo.
Jiang shouyin’s face couldn’t help but burn. Ever since he had met Li Chu, this wasn’t the first time he had experienced such a situation.
He felt very aggrieved.
But it was hard to explain.
Qi.
