Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique-Chapter 1561 - 1562: The Game of Chess! (First Update)
"Hehehe..."
Wuya Zi still watched everyone with a smile, seemingly unangered, while the expression of Void Spirit Zi became more sullen.
"Hmph, second brother, will you take action or should I?" Void Spirit Zi sneered coldly.
Wuya Zi took a step forward with a smile: "Big brother, let me do it. If you lose control and kill everyone, wouldn’t that ruin the fun!"
The Emperor who suggested everyone unite against these two old monsters paled in face, feeling a tinge of unease in his heart, trying to stay calm: "Hmph, what do you intend to do? Don’t think I’m easy to bully, I’m still an Emper..."
The Emperor’s words were cut short, only to hear a loud "bang", and this Initial Stage Emperor at the First Level of the Heavenly Destiny Realm was instantly blown into a blood rain!
Everyone was in shock and gasped in horror!
An Initial Stage Emperor was killed outright with just a glare!
Moreover, not even a strand of his Divine Soul escaped being devoured by Wuya Zi.
Don’t be fooled by the seemingly harmless act of Fatty Wu Ya, when he strikes, he’s absurdly strong!
Ling Feng’s eyes flickered violently, exclaiming in shock: "This is the power of a Great Saint!"
Bright Sun Sword Emperor, Purple Lightning Sword Emperor, and Emperor Etian Yun’s expressions also changed, this kind of power filled them with dread!
"Nice eye power!"
Wuya Zi grinned at Ling Feng, "Not bad for the man I have high hopes for!"
"..."
Ling Feng’s mouth twitched slightly, feeling a strange tightness.
"Though the master died thousands of years ago, it’s not for you juniors to question the strength of us, the Black and White Twins!"
Void Spirit Zi’s gaze swept over everyone, saying coldly: "Those unwilling to participate in the wager, or dare to disrupt, will meet the same fate as this person!"
"Dare not..."
Everyone was terrified, feeling caught in a doomed ship, with the odds of surviving so slim. They regretted their greed leading them here, thinking they should have just gathered some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures outside the tomb!
"Good, then you are volunteering to participate in the wager, right? I, Void Spirit Zi, have not forced you!"
Void Spirit Zi stared at the crowd, loudly questioning.
"Yes..."
The crowd cursed silently, this was considered not forcing? It was like coercing reluctant people into undesirable decisions!
It seemed that before his death, Nihility Saint Venerable instructed the Nihility Twins to let the seekers of fortune choose whether to participate in the wager voluntarily, yet they twisted these instructions forcefully.
However, fist power is the true reason!
Intimidated by the Nihility Twins’ might, despite inner reluctance, everyone reluctantly joined the so-called wager.
Void Spirit Zi’s gaze swept through the people, nodding with satisfaction, but he showed a hint of surprise upon seeing Ling Feng and Queen Huanxin.
"Human Emperor level? Since when can even Human Emperor level reach here? Hmph, interesting!"
After speaking, Void Spirit Zi waved his sleeve and turned his back, saying lightly: "Follow me inside!"
The group followed Void Spirit Zi across the Holy Mausoleum’s gates, entering a courtyard with flowing water, towers, and fragrant birds and flowers. The environment was serene and the scenery elegant, leaving the group dazed.
This was different from the imagined eerie, ghostly tomb chamber!
The Nihility Twins, keeping their eyes straight ahead, continued leading the way through the courtyard, reaching a wide-open black hall with many partitioned secret chambers.
"Alright, the wager is within, each of you eight choose a secret chamber to enter."
Void Spirit Zi coldly instructed: "Inside each secret chamber is a chessboard; your task is simple, just win the game to win."
"Chess game?"
Immediately someone frowned, "Really? I’ve never learned chess, isn’t this certain death for me!"
"Finished! I’m no good at chess either, I’m doomed, doomed!"
For a time, many Emperor strong felt panic. Though most were over a hundred years old, they spent their lives in secluded cultivation, hardly having time to delve into chess.
Ling Feng touched his nose, as a Great Saint’s chess game wouldn’t be a mundane game for mere mortals.
Sure enough, Bright Sun Sword Emperor realized this too, slowly asking: "Senior, who are we playing against?"
"Enter and you’ll know."
Void Spirit Zi sneered: "Alright, don’t waste time, you have only one hour to complete the game, exceed and die!"
"Damn it!"
Before the wager began, many Emperors had already lost confidence, feeling that this hour might be their life’s final hour.
"Two seniors, the chess path and martial arts seem unrelated, does this wager truly hold any test value?"
Emperor Tianyun frowned, voicing his doubts.
"Ignorant!" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Void Spirit Zi snorted coldly: "All paths converge, who says the chess path has no relation to martial arts? Master, during his life, was famed for dual mastery of chess and sword, understanding sword through chess and chess through sword! Could you ordinary folks know anything?"
"Nihility Saint Venerable was a senior expert, incomparable to us, yet skilled martial artists in chess are rare!"
Emperor Tianyun spoke solemnly.
"Rest assured, this chess game isn’t about chess skills, even if your skills are sublime, it won’t help winning the wager."
Really?
Only then did everyone’s hearts ease, among them, the most skilled at chess might not even beat chess-loving mortals back in the common realm.
Then, including Ling Feng, each chose a secret chamber and stepped in. As the doors of all eight chambers closed, the Nihility Twins visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
The next moment, the shadow of two figures, one fat, one skinny, one tall, one short, transformed, the big fatty turned into a white-robed maiden, the skinny dark one became a black-robed youth, one sprightly and cute, the other graceful and elegant, completely different from their previous appearances.
"Big brother, next time I won’t disguise as a fatty, it’s ugly!"
The white-robed maiden furrowed her brows deeply, looking at the black-robed youth with grievance, pouting with utmost dismay.
"That’s impossible, second sister, you know those humans are wicked, if we don’t become fierce, they won’t be intimidated! In the past, we treated humans entering here so kindly, and what use was it, didn’t they still steal master’s burial items and flee!"
The black-robed youth walked to the white-robed maiden’s side, gently patting her shoulder, comforting: "Anyway, it’s just once in a thousand years, cheer up!"
