453: C453 The Weird Conundrum

C453 The Weird Conundrum

At this moment, the people present all revealed looks of shock, which was a little too difficult to deal with. Zhang Fan was carefully listening, and the strange look in his eyes became deeper and deeper, because this rule was basically similar to chess, the only difference was that the general on your side, also known as handsome in his previous life, could go in and out. This was definitely another rule that changed a lot.

This explanation lasted for a very long time, because the meaning of the rules and regulations, including the chess pieces, were quite complicated. This explanation lasted for half a day, and at this time, everyone started asking questions, clearly paying a lot of attention to this matter.

Mu Rongchun would also answer these questions one by one.

Zhang Fan didn't ask any further questions, instead looking at the chess piece as he pondered. Of course, he also listened to the others' questions in order to better understand them.

Seeing that everyone was frowning, Mu Rongchun walked with an elder of the valley. As he walked, he also explained each and every rule.

At this time, Mu Rongchun also said directly, "This is a simple plan. The formation seal is not as we imagined, and it will completely replace your soul. Therefore, those below Martial King level cannot participate, and those below Earth Stage cannot participate."

As Mu Rongchun's voice fell, the people present more or less revealed a bit of amazement. Moreover, Mu Rongchun's words were extremely solemn. From this, one could see that this truly was a place worth paying attention to.

Zhang Fan's eyes also carried a strange expression. Fortunately, his strength had already reached the Emperor level, and his soul power had already surpassed the Saint level to reach a higher level. Perhaps it was the Emperor level, but he didn't really understand it.

The members of the younger generation, who had not reached this standard, all revealed helpless expressions. However, in the end, they did not say anything. What else could they do? Thus, they could only watch.

After Mu Rongchun and the elders in the valley finished their meeting, Mu Rongchun asked once more, "Alright, everyone, do you have any other questions?"

As Mu Rongchun's words fell, the people present once again began to ask their questions. Not just that, but there were still quite a number of questions.

At this time, Mu Rongchun was also giving a very serious answer. When everyone understood that there were no more problems, Mu Rongchun directly said, "Everyone, you can now walk around in groups of two. This is because when you truly fight, you will truly understand the meaning behind this."

"There is no hurry to go to the seal. Everyone understands that it is not too late …"

Although everyone was a little impatient, they still nodded their heads in the end.

At this moment, not even two sects began to move. Zhang Fan was in the same group as the sect head of the Mysterious Sky Sect, the one who played chess with him. He didn't ask for his name, but chose to walk with him.

Every step that he took, the man would consider it for a very long time. Zhang Fan did not say anything about it, because he had to consider it as well. The rules had changed a bit, and he needed to get used to it.

At this moment, he was extremely curious what kind of seal that seal was. Just what kind of seal was inside it?!

One day, two days of time slowly passed. Not a single person left as they diligently studied this topic. Every day, Mu Rongchun would also ask a question.

Almost four days later, Mu Rongchun spoke, "Alright, everyone, do you understand it now?"

Everyone present nodded their heads at the same time. At this moment, the sect head of the Mysterious Sky Sect had a helpless look on his face. Within the five days, he hasn't defeated Zhang Fan once, so there was an indescribable bitter smile on his face.

"Alright, since everyone has no problems, please follow me!" Mu Rongchun hesitated for a moment, but seeing that no one said anything, he stood up and walked out as well.

It was obvious that he was also very curious about what that formation mark was like. If it was something that he had left behind a long time ago, could it be that it was the same as the formation he had encountered in the Arctic Domain? If that was the case, then his interest would have completely disappeared.

But when he got there, he realized that it did not seem to be the case.

However, the three of them were inscribed with extremely beautiful patterns. Additionally, Zhang Fan was able to clearly sense the energy that was being transmitted from underground with his extremely sensitive soul. This was indeed a strange place, and it appeared to be very different from the one he had encountered in the Central Plains.

"I'm repeating myself. The maze here isn't as simple as everyone thinks. This is a true maze that those who have yet to reach the Emperor level cannot participate in. Those whose soul power is lower than the Spirit level absolutely cannot participate. Otherwise, if a life threatening situation occurs, it has nothing to do with the Forgotten Love Valley." At this time, Mu Rongchun gravely said.

As Mu Rongchun's voice fell, everyone present was stunned for a moment before nodding their heads. Perhaps, it really was the case …

"Alright, who wants to go up and experience it for themselves?" At this time, Mu Rongchun spoke with a solemn tone.

As Mu Rongchun's words fell, an old man walked out and lightly said, "I'll give it a try!"

"Alright." Mu Rongchun smiled and nodded. "Then Senior, you can sit on the stone chair to the right."

The old man nodded slightly and walked over. When he arrived at the middle position, he discovered that a chess piece had already been placed on the chess board. However, that chess piece was an existence that was like an energy body.

"Senior, manipulating these chess pieces requires the operation of your soul. Senior only needs to infuse your soul force into them." As Mu Rongchun's voice sounded out, the old man nodded his head and followed Mu Rongchun's words and fused into the chess pieces.2

At this time, everyone could clearly see that an illusory figure had appeared on the stone chair opposite of the old man. That figure sat there in a somewhat blurry manner and his eyes gave off an extremely hollow feeling, clearly indicating that it was a soul that did not possess intelligence.

At this moment, the old man first took a step forward, then another. As time passed, the two sides began to clash. At this moment, the old man's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and his face revealed a hint of pain.

Wave after wave of energy couldn't help but float out from the elder's body. Furthermore, this wasn't the most important aspect. The elder's soul force had also instantly spread outwards.

As time passed by, every time a chess piece was eaten or eaten, the old man's pain increased by another level. His face grew even paler.

At this moment, everyone present revealed a puzzled expression. It was just a game of chess. There was no need to be like this, right?

As everyone revealed strange expressions, they also began to speculate what the old man was experiencing. At this time, everyone also thought back to what Mu Rongchun had said, that those not at the Emperor level were not allowed to participate, and those below the Soul Earth level were not allowed to participate. It could be said that these words had absolutely denied everyone else, because strength was something that everyone present might be able to attain, but soul power wasn't so simple.

With more than twenty sects combined, there were more than fifty people. Excluding those that didn't match up, there were probably only thirty people left …

Time continued to flow. At this moment, the old man's body was trembling slightly. His face was covered in cold sweat, and it flowed faster and faster.

When the light grew thicker and the last chess piece of the old man was eaten, the old man's body trembled and his soul force began to twitch. He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

However, it strangely disappeared when it landed on the chessboard.

As the energy dissipated, the chessboard returned to its original form. The elder had also completely returned to his normal form.

The old man opened his eyes and sat up, trembling slightly. He wiped the cold sweat off his face with his sleeve, and there was still shock and panic in his eyes.

"Fourth Elder, are you alright?" A man quickly asked. After all, the old man's performance just now had been too abnormal.

The old man took in a deep breath. He first shook his head, then said with a heavy voice, "I can't remove it."

"I'll give it a try." The man snorted coldly and walked up.

"Sect head, be careful!" The old man took a deep breath before turning back. At this moment, many people were asking him what had happened, but the old man opened his mouth and said, "I can't say. You'll know when you experience it."

Hearing the old man's story, he once again realized that it was extremely strange, and his heart was still moved.

At this moment, everyone's gazes simultaneously landed on the middle-aged man. They discovered that his early stage was similarly extremely stable, but as the fascinating plot deepened, the man also became extremely difficult. The same reaction also appeared on the man.

Occasionally, however, the man's face would reveal a somewhat comfortable expression. What exactly was there inside that made quite a number of people start to get restless …
