C358 Emperor Yu's Steady Sea Step
The game was very complicated. One wrong move would result in a complete loss. However, the Pill Emperor was indeed talented, constantly evolving and transforming. Fu Yanghong followed the steps deduced by the Pill King and continued to wander around, and often, the white piece would be continuously whittled away. Time slowly passed. The time that Fu Yanghong took to stand there became longer and longer, and the Pill King also started to evolve slower and slower.
In the end, every step wasted a large amount of time for the Pill King. Beads of perspiration had already appeared on the Pill Emperor's forehead, and traces of exhaustion could be seen on his face.
He had already reached the 600th step, and had yet to turn back the draw. It was quite a distance from what he had previously imagined. When the 700 steps arrived, the situation gradually changed. Blackie had already gradually suppressed Bai Zi. By the time he took 800 steps, it was already a draw.
"It's already a draw. It won't be long before he's completely suppressed." The crowd broke out into a flurry of discussion. The game was far more complicated than one could imagine. The Pill Emperor's powers of deduction were extremely terrifying, but under the effects of the game, he could feel that they were lacking.
When Fu Yanghong took a thousand two hundred steps, all the white stones had disappeared, and Hei Zi had won.
The Pill Emperor's body swayed as his face paled. However, joy appeared on his face. A 1200 step victory could be considered an extraordinary result.
"Alright, you've passed. Who's next?" He then looked at Fu Yanghong and asked, "Do you have any insights?"
"There is. There seems to be some sort of enlightenment in my mind. It seems to be able to affect the entire starry sky." Joy also appeared on Fu Yanghong's face.
"Master, please take a rest. I'll have to trouble you more this time." Fu Yanghong said to the Pill King.
The Pill Emperor nodded his head, "This chess game seems to have the ability to evolve on its own. If one wants to win, they are probably all a thousand steps away." To be able to achieve victory within a thousand steps, that is something that only a headmaster from ancient times would be able to accomplish. "
Meng Xuan's lips curled into a sneer.
Seeing Meng Xuan's appearance, Fu Tian could not help but want to ask how many steps Meng Xuan could take to achieve victory. After a moment of hesitation, he decided not to say it.
The next was the rain of symbols. They stood in the middle of this game, and the situation changed once more. It was no different from before. The situation faced by each of the interpreters was different.
Fu Yu's master was the Medicine God. The two's cultivation systems were similar, and their powers of deduction were about the same. But the Pill King focused on defense. The Pill King won at 1300 steps.
"Have you comprehended the talisman rain?" Fu Long asked.
Fu Yu nodded, then shook her head. "It's not deep. It's just a little blurry."
Next were the other youths of the Fu Clan. A few of them had failed. The lightning had almost destroyed it, but it had been blocked. There were also five or six people who had passed the test, and all of them had won at a distance of fifteen hundred steps.
Only Fu Tian was left on the battlefield.
"Fu Tian, go." Adept Dragonseal said.
The gazes of the crowd were all fixated on Meng Xuan. The key to victory was still with Meng Xuan. It was just that he didn't know how many steps Meng Xuan would be able to achieve victory in.
Fu Tian took a deep breath and directed his gaze toward Meng Xuan.
"Left in three, straight in six, mercilessly kill! "Attacking is the best defense." Meng Xuan said calmly. Fu Tian took a step forward and was immediately wrapped up by Bai Zi. With a step, he fell into a dangerous situation.
Seeing this, everyone froze for a moment.
"Idiot, do you know how to play chess?" The Sect Master of the Darkness Palace said with a smile, "If you don't take three steps, you will lose. Fu Tian will also be struck by lightning. If he doesn't die, he will at least be seriously injured."
"What's going on?! What kind of mess is this?!" The Pill King was also stunned for a moment before he mockingly said, "I had thought that there was nothing good about it."
As for Fu Jin, he silently watched the changes on the spear as he broke out into a cold sweat. On the other hand, Fu Tian looked around at the densely packed white stones, and the cold sweat on his forehead instantly flowed down.
Does this Ye Xuan really know how to play chess?
Meng Xuan's countenance was calm, he didn't bother to explain, "Continue, don't stop. Five more steps, and nine more steps. "
Fu Tian clenched his teeth. At this time, he could only grit his teeth and advance forward. With the second step, the situation became even more critical. Bai Zi's killing intent surged, thunderclouds had already started to gather in the sky, locking onto Fu Tian.
"If you can't lose within five steps, I'll stream and eat sh * t." Master Ye said blandly.
"You don't need to take five steps, four steps and you will lose." Pill King also joined in.
"Fu Jin, is this so-called 'master' that your son sought serious? It's just a small movement, yet he was so severely injured. Haha." The third elder, Fu Tianqi, didn't find Meng Xuan pleasing to the eye at all and mercilessly attacked him.
Fu Tian looked pleadingly at Meng Xuan.
"Ignore them, they're a group of short-sighted animals." Meng Xuan said, "Continue."
"Three to the right, two to the left."
"Four left five."
On the fifth step, the situation changed. The white stones surrounding Fu Tian had all disappeared, leaving behind a large amount of space. Everyone was stunned once again. Fu Long's expression became even more serious as he looked at the chess game. Even his breathing had started to quicken.
"This... "Impossible!" The wyrm muttered to itself.
The Pill King, Medicine King, Third Elder, and Young Master Ye all looked on in disbelief.
"The chess game corresponds to a small piece of space. You must remember the steps you take. The name of the game is Stellar Celestial Steps, which corresponds to the space game. "When your cultivation becomes stronger, you can borrow the power of the starry sky to use for yourself." Meng Xuan lightly said, "Attacking is the best defense."
This was because it was extremely similar to the footwork of the Yellow Springs Sect in the legends of ancient times. He muttered to himself, "This is... "According to ancient legends, the sky collapsed and the Yellow Springs River poured into the earth, obliterating everything in its path. Emperor Yu froze the entire Yellow Springs River with nine steps, then blasted all the river water into the starry sky."
What Meng Xuan taught was indeed Emperor Yu's Steadfast Sea Steps, but it was just a small branch.
"We've underestimated him. "Not only does this person master ancient footwork, his evolving power is terrifying as well." Fu Long said.
The expressions of the crowd turned solemn as they stared at Meng Xuan. In particular, Fu Tian closed his eyes and began to analyze the profound meanings behind every step.
"Continue. Left, right, left, right, left."
"Seven, sit, sit. Three, sit. Three, sit. Then six."
Meng Xuan's speed became faster and faster. Fu Tian kept on dashing forward in the chess game. Half a quarter of an hour later, Fu Tian had already walked a hundred steps. When the 108th step appeared, the entire chess game lit up with light. Bai Zi was like the rolling waves of the ocean, dissipating in the air. The whole situation had been reversed!
The crowd burst into an uproar as they looked at Meng Xuan in disbelief.
108 steps to turn the situation around. Not to mention the fact that no one would come in the future, this was definitely an unprecedented accomplishment! Even the second generation Sect Leader of the Underworld Sect was able to turn the tides at a distance of three hundred steps!
"108 steps, draw …" Fu Tianqi closed his eyes.
"Who said that they were going to watch the live broadcast and eat sh * t?" Meng Xuan turned his head to look at Young Noble Ye as he coldly laughed. Ye Boran's face turned extremely ugly as it swelled to a bright red color.
"Don't use your shallow knowledge to guess at me." Meng Xuan said indifferently. He had the bearing of a mysterious expert.
No one dared to speak as they silently looked at Meng Xuan.
As Fu Tian continued to walk, Fu Jin was so excited that his entire body started to tremble. He had picked up a treasure. He had definitely picked up a treasure. Fu Tianyi truly had great luck. Any random person he met was able to release such brilliance!
When the two hundred steps arrived, Fu Tian had already completely gained the upper hand.
At the 299th step, Meng Xuan stopped and looked at the situation. This was already the most crucial step, and if the result was correct, then the victor would be obtained. If they were not correct, they would lose.
"Fu Tian, take a step to the left." Meng Xuan replied.
"This won't do. This step is a dead end. Once we step in, all our previous efforts will be wasted." Fu Jin shouted. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this step would definitely lead to White's ambush.
The others didn't say anything. No matter how they looked at it, this was a dead end. There was no way for them to win at all.
Fu Long couldn't help but open his mouth as well. "Ye Xuan, do you want to reconsider?"
Meng Xuan shook his head, "This is the only step. Fu Tian, take it."2
Seeing how determined Meng Xuan was, the others didn't say anything and simply watched on silently. Fu Tian clenched his teeth, and took a step forward, reaching that step, and was surrounded by Bai Zi. There was absolutely no chance for him to escape. Fu Jin felt as though his heart was about to leap out of his chest.
But... In the instant that Fu Tian stepped in, the entire chess game began to shine with divine light. The sky began to change as a strange phenomenon occurred!
At this moment, all the white stones had disappeared.
Victory!
Victory in three hundred steps resulted in an unprecedented result!
Numerous illusory figures appeared on top of the chess board. Their eyes emitted light as they looked towards Fu Tian. Then, from the great earth, one figure after another rose up, charging into the heavens. There were True Dragons, phoenixes, Taotie, and others. All of a sudden, they filled up the sky!
A dragon and a phoenix, auspicious clouds bursting forth, immortal qi swirling about.
The sky had become dreamy and dark, and all kinds of rainbow lights were dancing in the air. Following that, a small piece of the starry sky was completely revealed. Strands of star power descended down, interweaving with Fu Tian's body!
"Three hundred steps to resolve the dead end, I'll bestow you with a Great Dao Star Map." From the depths of the starry sky, a cold voice rang out, filled with majesty. Following which, a pillar of light as thick as a mountain descended from the starry sky, landing on Meng Xuan's body.
As Meng Xuan was bathed in the divine light, he became even more mysterious.
Everyone stared blankly at Meng Xuan and Fu Tian, especially Fu Tian. His entire body was wrapped up by symbols, forming a large cocoon as he underwent an extreme transformation.
"Good …" "Powerful!"
"Three hundred steps to solve a chess game, where did he come from?"
"This person is definitely a great genius. A hundred breaths of time in order to walk through the Underworld's formation, and three hundred steps to solve the chess game. This talent is terrifying!"
"He is definitely an old monster hidden here. I just don't know who he is."
Everyone began to guess Meng Xuan's identity.
The light faded away, revealing Meng Xuan's silhouette. He looked around and said very calmly, "Actually, this game of chess is very simple, it is not as difficult as you think. If it was back then, when I was at my peak, I would have been able to turn back the draw with thirty steps, and win with a hundred steps. "
When these words were spoken, everyone couldn't help but want to roll their eyes.
Blowing, blowing again.
Fu Long walked up and respectfully looked at Meng Xuan. "Mister Ye is indeed talented."
"Hmph, what's there to be proud about? I don't believe that you can maintain such a high score in the third round of the Large Competition." Fu Tianxiong coldly snorted. He was a bit unhappy.
