Chapter 1020 -927: Using Oneself as a Chess Piece, Sacrificing Oneself into the Game

Qing Chen, Lu Rang, Jiang Li, and Yu Linglong had already stepped into this area.

Before them lay endless lines of the Array Plate, casting an enigmatic and unpredictable light.

“So this array… It’s exactly the same as the solutions to breaking the position I saw in that small courtyard.”

Jiang Li couldn’t help but murmur to himself. While observing the game in the small courtyard, he had already felt the thought process of the one who would break the position in reality.

Now, it indeed all proved true.

The Seven-Piece Array that his master set was a reflection right here.

Suddenly, he felt an inexplicable presence and immediately looked up, fixing his eyes toward the front.

His gaze landed on the man beside Chess Ancestor, the melancholic man, and as their eyes met, it seemed as if lines from the path of chess were bursting forth in both their eyes!

“You’re the Heretical Corpse from my past life… It really is you.”

Jiang Li murmured.

The melancholic man, however, revealed a self-mocking expression and said,

“I’ve been dead for years and still not at peace. Is there an echo of me in this life?”

At the same time, Qing Chen also immediately looked up, gazing in the direction of Buddha Ancestor.

In that region, criscrossed with lines of the Array Plate, where Buddha Ancestor was trapped but remained calm and serene, as if deep in meditation, he suddenly opened his eyes, glanced at Qing Chen, and bringing his hands together, said,

“Although I died in my past life, there’s significant karma reaching into this one. How wonderful, how wonderful.”

As he spoke, the wooden box he held suddenly burst forth with endless brilliance.

The wooden box exploded open to reveal a Shariputra within, black as divine crystal, bobbing uncertainly, manifesting the shadow of a monk clad in a Black Kasaya.

This shadow of the monk sat alongside the Old Monk, ethereal in the extreme, as though a true Buddha unconcerned with the secular world.

The monk looked towards Qing Chen and said,

“You’ve seen my obsession. My obsession did not kill you but scattered because of you…”

“You’ve always possessed great strangeness, great terror within you.”

But Qing Chen was very calm, replying,

“It scattered, but not necessarily because of great strangeness or great terror. It could also be because it saw great illumination, great compassion.”

The Heretical Corpse of Brahma Honor remained silent, while Old Monk Buddha Ancestor suddenly brightened up and said,

“That makes sense, great illumination, great compassion… This Old Monk, looks forward to it.”

…

On the other side, Lu Rang turned his eyes to where Herb Ancestor Jiu Bian was.

“Wow, so much Foxtail Grass?”

He exclaimed in amazement.

Because, unlike the peaceful Old Monk, Herb Ancestor Jiu Bian was exerting all his power, displaying the might of the path of grass, attempting to break free from his bonds, transforming that area into a sea of invisible Foxtail Grass.

At that moment, a coffin unexpectedly flew up within this sea of grass, and then the coffin was blasted open, a man stepping out from within!

That man bore a striking resemblance to Lu Rang, save that his face was etched with a grim and somber air.

Behind him seemed to evolve a shocking shadow of grass.

Seeing this scene, the surrounding people were shocked beyond measure.

“Wait… Are those three… the Heretical Corpses of the Chess Honored, Green Honor, and Brahma Honor from The Era of the Ancient White Mist?”

Ji Wuming and others displayed an expression of incredulity, looking at Jiang Li and others as if they had seen ghosts, saying,

“How come these three look exactly like the strongest beings from The Era of the Ancient White Mist?!”

Qi Fenglin and other beings from the Grey Mist Sea were even more astoundingly shocked.

“Chess Honored, Green Honor, Brahma Honor… Could they really have been reincarnated?”

Qing Shenglan muttered subconsciously.

“There is something wrong with this realm… A big problem!”

Shi Xin’s eyes showed a hint of horror.

“Are they truly reincarnations of those individuals? This… would be earth-shattering…”

Qi Fenglin spoke gravely,

“Could this be the true contingency of The End of Myriad Paths? The Ten Honored and Two Vicious Ones had reincarnations…”

“Thankfully, thankfully we from the Grey Mist Sea intervened early enough, otherwise, we would have faced a great calamity!”

With that, he took a deep breath, looking toward Chess Ancestor Qi Shuangming.

Now, all hope… rested on Qi Shuangming.

If Qi Shuangming could break the Seven-Piece Array of The End of Myriad Paths, then nothing else would matter.

So what if Chess Honored, Green Honor, and Brahma Honor were reborn?

They would have to die too!

And at that moment, Chess Ancestor also glanced over and said,

“Three Heretical Corpses, three reincarnations… Damn, this is really interesting. However, my game is the most interesting!”

“Everyone, watch, and I’ll show you the supreme position. After you’ve seen it, I’ll send all six of you to the Western Heaven together!”

He was wildly domineering, and upon finishing his statement, he suddenly activated the Array Plate in his hands with full force!

That Array Plate had already gathered all of his and Chess Honored’s considerations!

As the Array Plate moved.

Boom!

Countless lines of the Array Plate boiled up as if with the sound of armoured horses, like a great army passing by, making everyone feel as if they were on a battlefield.

The endless lines of the Array Plate twisted around the seven white rainbows, looking to lock them down, to dissolve them!

Everyone at the scene was now watching nervously.

Chess Ancestor had begun to break the formation. Would the array left by the one at The End of Myriad Paths really be broken?

…

And at that moment.

The Wu Huang Realm.

A small mountain village.

“How’s it going, what have you been thinking about?”

Under the Peach Tree, Li Fan held Xiao Bai and sat opposite Yun Xi, smiling slightly, saying,

“Shall we give it a try?”

He was quite looking forward to seeing just what level Yun Xi had comprehended.

Yun Xi also nodded, her face lit with excitement, saying,

“Okay… Let’s give it one try!”

Finishing her words, she picked up a chess piece, saying,

“I’ll go first and break your Seven-Piece Array!”

After she spoke, she picked up a black piece and placed it on the chessboard.

This single piece, clearly landing amidst Li Fan’s seven white pieces, seemed like a sheep entering the mouth of a tiger, as if it was delivering itself to its doom!

Yet because of this, the situation atop the Array Plate abruptly changed.

Previously, Li Fan’s seven-piece arrangement, with twenty-eight possible variations, was extremely difficult to break and defend against, but now, with the placement of this single piece, the black pieces’ position was opened up in an instant. Li Fan’s seven pieces seemed scattered and lost all their variations!

“Great Demon King, this move, ‘sacrifice the dead to bring life,’ has revitalized the game—it’s your turn now!”

Yun Xi spoke up.

Just a moment ago, Li Fan’s seven white pieces had controlled the entire board, but now she had broken the position wide open with a single piece!

…

And it was at this moment.

“Break through!”

In Tianjiang Continent, on Sacrificial World Mountain, Chess Ancestor Qi Shuangming bellowed, with grey blood continuously flowing from his right eye, even his left eyelid began to twitch uncontrollably.

The Array Plate in his hand transformed into endless variations, repeatedly assaulting those seven white rainbows.

Between the seven white rainbows, it seemed that various horrifying variations were emerging, blocking the Chess Ancestor’s offensive.

He…

…was actually unable to make an inch of progress!

“I’ve said it before, you can’t break through the twenty-eighth variation of the chess arrangement…”

Qi Zun Evil Corpse shook his head, murmuring:

“To break it, you must use your body as a piece and sacrifice yourself into the game, but in doing so, you would die… Too many have already died; it would be best for you to continue living.”

—He had already conceived a method to break through the twenty-eighth variation.

But he did not tell Qi Shuangming.

Because by doing so… even if Qi Shuangming managed to break the seven-piece chess pattern before him, he was likely to not survive it.

Moreover, this seven-piece chess pattern was clearly just a starting point; the true master hadn’t even made a move yet. What if you could break through the seven-piece pattern?

It would be meaningless!

But, at this moment.

Chess Ancestor suddenly took a step forward; he actually charged into the endless chess arrangement.

Chess lines crisscrossed in endless variations; the chess arrangement was a death ground, where anyone who entered would be subdued and slaughtered!

But, the Chess Ancestor entered the formation heart of the seven white rainbows without any fear, releasing all his horrifying cultivation level.

Boom!

Instantly, the formation of the seven white rainbows converged upon the body of the Chess Ancestor.

But, it was at this moment that the terrifying linkage of the seven white rainbows was hindered by the Chess Ancestor!

The seven-piece chess arrangement… had been broken!

Witnessing this scene, Qi Zun Evil Corpse suddenly went pale with shock, exclaiming:

“You… how did you come up with this move?!”

He was baffled. Qi Shuangming had actually discerned the crux of this great formation?!

And moreover, he had the audacity… to sacrifice himself into the game.

Seeing this, Qi Fenglin was also immediately filled with extreme joy, laughing heartily:

“Ha ha ha… broken, the chess arrangement left by that woman has been broken, that’s great! So great!!”

“Her era has finally come to an end!”

He could naturally see that the current seven-piece chess arrangement was no longer a threat.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but look towards the Chess Ancestor, showing a trace of genuine admiration in his eyes, saying:

“Chess Ancestor is indeed ruthless, for the sake of chess, you would give up everything!”

Simultaneously, everyone else was also extremely shocked.

“This… this has been broken?!”

“The End of Myriad Paths chess arrangement has been broken by the Grey Mist Sea?”

“An era of legend, is it finally coming to an end today?”

Everyone was paying attention!

And at this moment, the Chess Ancestor was at the center of the great formation.

It was at this moment that a hint of stupor flashed in the eyes of the Chess Ancestor, and he blinked subconsciously, looking around in confusion.

What happened???

He had just lost consciousness for a moment?!

All his actions were involuntary, his mind was blank, and he didn’t even retain any memories.

What was going on?

Could it be that he had been manipulated by some terrifying entity for a brief moment?!

Thinking this, the Chess Ancestor’s entire scalp tingled, and a trace of fear couldn’t help but appear in his agitated right eye!

At this time, Qi Zun Evil Corpse went on to say, looking at him:

“I didn’t expect your path of chess attainments to be so high, and to have such courage, daring to use your body as a chess piece, sacrificially entering the game…”

He smiled slightly and said, “Someone once said, to be a chess player, one must first be a chess piece.”

“Your willingness to become a piece demonstrates that you are a true chess player, congratulations.”

But when Chess Ancestor Qi Shuangming heard this, he was immediately shocked.

What the hell?

What was this about using his body as a piece and willingly entering the game?

And becoming a piece voluntarily?

He wanted to say, damn it, it was not voluntary, it was forced!

It wasn’t his choice to use himself as a piece, but rather some strange and terrifying force had come, and he… had become someone else’s piece unwillingly!

But, as he opened his mouth, he found that he couldn’t speak a word at this moment.

He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat—had that terrifying hand not let go of him?!

Was he still in the state of being a “piece”?!

At this moment, he panicked, completely panicked.

The chess game related to that woman… was indeed defying the heavens…

“Left eye, you’re damn right, open up and save me, I don’t want to die yet…”

He cried out in his heart, even closing his right eye voluntarily.

But the left eye didn’t pay any attention to him, also closed, playing dead!

“You’re not human, left eye, not helping in the face of death, you damn thing!”

He couldn’t help but curse!
