?
Qi Chengze looked bewildered.
To crack this "Heavenly Yuan Chess," one needs to maintain calmness under pressure and have a great sense of the bigger picture. It’s a severe test of character, root bone, and intellect.
Although Chen Mo is sharp-minded, his chess skills are indeed lacking, almost at the sa level as Ling Yishan, who is bad at chess.
Predicting that he could break the ga in about fifty moves is already generously overestimating him.
Yet, he managed it in just three moves!
And the thod of breaking the ga was actually to pierce the chessboard?!
"Old man, no wonder you wanted to bet with , were you waiting for here? Did you already get the heads-up from him?" Qi Chengze ca to his senses, looking a bit upset, feeling he had been set up.
Ling Yishan was also a bit baffled, shaking his head and saying, "Do you think I can foresee the future? Besides, you set up this chess ga, who would’ve thought it was so fragile?"
Ling Yishan was so sure that Chen Mo could co out within ten moves partly because he trusted the kid’s talent, and partly because he was bluffing.
His lifespan was already limited, and no matter how precious a magical treasure was, it was just an external thing to him.
Ling Ningzhi’s cultivation technique was different from his, so keeping the Heavenly chanism Lock would be of no use, it was better to gamble for a chance.
If he lost, he lost, since Qi Chengze was one of his own, receiving the treasure would be a favor owed, but if he won, it would add another layer of protection for the two.
At that ti, with the blessing of Heavenly Vision, they could predict the enemy’s actions and avoid being sched against, making the future path much smoother.
"It wasn’t you?"
Qi Chengze cald down, his brow furrowed.
With years of acquaintance, they naturally understood each other’s character and wouldn’t resort to such underhanded thods.
"I was so focused on betting with Ling Yishan that I didn’t pay attention to the chess ga..."
"How exactly did this kid do it?"
He focused his gaze on the table, the Heavenly Eye at his brow opened, emitting silver light, and broken wooden boards rose into the air, reassembling into a complete chessboard as if in reverse.
Soon after, the scene that had occurred before began to replay.
In the third move, Chen Mo did nothing but stood silently in the corner, letting the white pieces take shape.
Until that giant dragon ca alive, baring its fierce fangs and diving in to bite, he suddenly took action.
Under so unknown force, his body swelled almost as big as the giant dragon, grabbing its sharp teeth with one hand, gripping its horns with the other, rooting his feet to the ground, twisting his body and hips, and forcibly tossing the dragon, crashing it onto the chessboard!
He wasn’t finished yet, swinging his arms in wide circles like kneading dough, slamming it back and forth!
Boom boom boom——
The chessboard trembled, swaying unstable.
The body of the dragon was covered in cracks, emitting sharp wails, finally shattered and scattered into flying pieces.
Then Chen Mo tore off one of the dragon’s horns, raised it high, and struck fiercely at the chasm beneath his feet, the powerful strike gradually expanded the cracks.
In no ti, the chessboard was shattered into several pieces...
"..."
The few present fell silent.
Qi Chengze’s eyelids twitched, this chess ga was set up by his hands, suppressed by the Power of Laws, unable to utilize True Yuan, how did Chen Mo manage it?
"Who taught you to break the ga like this?"
"Of course, it was you, Lord Supervisor." Chen Mo said.
"?" Qi Chengze frowned, "When did I tell you to break the chessboard?"
"Just now, Lord Supervisor said that to jump out of the chess ga, one must transform from a chess piece to a ga master." Chen Mo calmly said, "But if I play by the rules, don’t I still follow soone else’s ga? Wouldn’t I still be a piece on a higher-level board?"
Qi Chengze was stunned upon hearing this.
"So you chose brute force?"
"In a ga created by soone else, no matter how well you play, it’s pointless. To truly jump out of the board, one must decide how to play on their own."
Pointing at the shattered giant dragon, Chen Mo said, "This is how I play the ga."
Qi Chengze stared at Chen Mo, eyes full of disbelief.
Such words seem childish, yet, the more one ponders, the more they raise goosebumps——
Not content with just being a player, but to beco the one who sets the rules?
Perhaps, in a way, this truly is the right way to solve the Heavenly Yuan Chess?
Moreover, Qi Chengze could see that Chen Mo was not ambitious, just with an unyielding pride, and that is the hardest to co by...
Ling Yishan recovered from the shock, a sparkle in his eyes, a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.
"A bet is a bet, with Lord Supervisor’s status, you wouldn’t go back on your word, would you?"
"...Old man, lucky you are."
Though Qi Chengze was upset, he couldn’t deny it, reluctantly raising his hand, sending a beam of silver light into Chen Mo’s Spirit Platform.
A system prompt flashed before his eyes:
[Acquired Cultivation Technique: "Interpretation of the World."]
"This is..." Chen Mo was montarily at a loss.
"A good thing, quickly thank Lord Supervisor?" Ling Yishan said with a cheerful deanor.
Chen Mo, having a clear mind, stood up to bow, "Thank you, Master Qi, for passing on the technique..."
"Hold on." Qi Chengze raised a hand to stop him, "I can’t handle such a significant cause and effect, just consider it as the technique falling from the sky. How far you can cultivate depends on your understanding and fortune."
"And there’s no need to thank , not considering the matter of the festival, you also saved my grandson’s life, so we’re even."
"Your grandson?"
Chen Mo was a bit puzzled.
Ling Yishan spoke up to explain, "Qi Yifeng of the Demon Suppression Departnt, went with you to the Northern Border on a mission."
