Chapter 1337 The real immortal sets up the chess game
"The usage of this [Yin-Yang Diagram of All Things] is also simple. It is like a mirror, which can show the essence of things on a blank scroll. Of course, it may not be so straightforward. Maybe you need to gain additional insights..."
"But no matter what, it is much easier than studying this gray chess piece directly." Zhong Daogong said this, opening and closing his lips, and slowly unfolded the blank scroll.
Like a long dragon, floating above everyone's heads.
"go!"
The gray chess piece slowly flew towards the yin and yang diagram of all things. At a certain moment when it got closer, it disappeared from everyone's sight. And on the blank picture scroll, as if various paints had been dripped, strange and bizarre pictures began to appear.
It's like a storm of paint fitting, with different colors intertwining, colliding, and clutching together.
"Being able to analyze things in the fairy world, could this Yin-Yang diagram of all phenomena also come from the fairy world?" Li Fan asked casually as he watched the scroll constantly changing.
"No, no. This picture of all things is definitely from the lower realm." Seeing Daosheng smiled, he answered Li Fan's doubts.
"This picture was taken from a down-and-out monk by the Xuan Shang Immortal Boat."
"The ancestors of this monk were originally direct disciples of the famous [Xing Dao Sect] in the Star Sea. In ancient times, the power of the Star Dao Sect covered several neighboring immortal worlds. The sect's magical method is said to be able to control the way of the Star Sea.
The Taijia Divine Technique taught to us by fellow Taoists is even better."
Li Fan raised his eyebrows: "How did such a famous sect decline?"
"This is an eternal mystery. Not to mention now, even back then, there were different opinions and there was no accurate answer. Some people said that they offended the true immortals of the upper world, and the upper world issued an immortal punishment. Others said that it was the Xingdao Sect's attempt to refine.
, controlled the Xinghai Tiandao, and was eventually counterattacked by the Xinghai..."
"In short, for some reason, the top brass and mainstays of Xinghai Sect all disappeared overnight. The remaining lower-level disciples who were confused about the situation, after waiting for a while and realizing that there seemed to be no room for recovery,
They all dispersed like birds and beasts. Before leaving, they did not forget to snatch all the items that could be taken away from the door."
"In just one month, this large and prestigious sect in the sea of stars has collapsed." Seeing Daosheng said with some sigh.
"This Yin-Yang Diagram of All Things is a treasure of Xingdao Sect back then. It is said that in the Tongxing Hall of Xingdao Sect, the place where Xingdao Sect monks use to communicate and understand the heavenly way of the sea of stars, there are all such Yin-Yang Diagrams of all things hanging."
"Every time the Xinghai Tiandao comes into contact with the monks, it is like an invisible ink pen, leaving traces on the scrolls. Over time, these scrolls will also copy the Xinghai Tiandao into them."
…
Hearing this, Li Fan couldn't help but interrupt: "Even if it is an engraved portrait of Xinghai Tiandao, how can it show the things in the upper world?"
Although he asked this question pretending not to know, in fact, Li Fan already had the answer in his heart.
Zhong Daogong smiled: "The sea of stars and the lower realm are the cornerstone of all things."
"Where the projection of the Great Dao finally manifests itself, even though the Immortal Realm is high above, it is not a castle in the air. From the bottom up, although you cannot see its true face, you can still see the shadow of the Dao."
Hearing this, Li Fan seemed to be exposed to this theory for the first time. He looked very shaken and fell into deep thought.
The evolution of the Yin-Yang diagram of everything is still continuing.
Like an invisible true immortal, he splashes ink with his brush and his pen moves like dragons and snakes.
In the end, the color storm was fixed on one picture, and everything was calm.
Li Fan looked at the picture above his head, his pupils narrowed.
It is not a detailed realistic style, but rather an abstract, roughly outline freehand painting.
The tall figure occupies nearly half of the screen, commanding a commanding height.
Unable to see his face clearly, he stretched out his long arms.
Below the figure, there seems to be a chessboard placed.
What is displayed on the chessboard is not gray chess pieces.
Rather, they are completely different worlds of cultivating immortals.
Those color groups seemed to be just a mixture of multiple colors. When I tried to peek into them, countless pictures of different creatures appeared in my mind.
They are born, old, sick, die, practice, and fight in this world.
The stories of living beings, together with the world of immortality itself, are interpreted to create a chess piece on the chessboard.
boom……
After being displayed in front of everyone for several breaths, the Yin and Yang Diagram of all phenomena suddenly seemed to be blown by a strong wind, and not only the scroll itself swayed violently.
Even the paint on the canvas was swept away by the storm.
The picture gradually disintegrates.
The gray chess piece also slowly retreated from the painting.
"The deconstruction of the Wanxiang Diagram has reached its limit." Zhong Daogong said solemnly, and united with a group of elders to solemnly put away the Yin and Yang Wanxiang Diagram.
Afterwards, they fell into an eerie silence as they looked at the gray chess pieces floating quietly in the air.
"If my understanding is correct, this gray chess piece seems to be the world of immortality after all creatures have become extinct and all things have withered. That tall figure should be the true immortal in the upper world?" Li Fan was the first to speak.
No one responded.
After a while, Elder Daosheng shook his head and expressed his opinion: "Although the analysis of the Wanxiang Diagram points directly to the essence of the matter, it is not so simple."
"The King of Medicine Cauldron is almost in a world of its own. It can spontaneously generate spiritual energy and cultivate herbal spiritual plants..."
"How could a world with extinct life be able to do this?"
Zhong Daogong agreed: "Yes. I think that this concrete world, or the actual world of chess pieces, does not represent death. It refers to the abandoned pieces that have lost their role on the chessboard and have completed their mission."
Saying this, the vertical and horizontal lines intersect, and the black and white pieces fall one after another. Then the black pieces surround them and eat up a white piece.
These white pieces that were captured left the chessboard and had no chance to return.
Transformed into gray and no longer participated in the competition between black and white chess pieces.
"Elder Zhong's explanation seems to make more sense." The exchanges between the elders of Xianzhou did not have so much intrigue, and they often just said what they wanted.
Zhong Daogong's deconstruction of the Wanxiang Tu picture attracted the approval of the vast majority of the elders.
"The true immortals play chess, and they descend into the world like sons."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "If this is true, what is the purpose of setting up this chess game? And is there a final winner?"
Then, a bigger mystery appeared in everyone's mind.
"There is no need to delve into matters involving the level of true immortals for the time being. Now I know that this gray chess piece is probably an artifact formed by the true immortals who sacrificed the world. Even without the blessing of the power of immortals, it can be regarded as a half-immortal artifact.
Already."
"There is still a whole set of gray chess pieces that are disqualified from the competition. They are all so magical. It's hard to imagine what the world of the black and white twins still on the chessboard will look like!" Lu Yuzhi said with fascination.
"Haha, don't forget, the fairy world has been destroyed long ago. Even the chess players may have fallen, let alone those on the chessboard. I'm afraid they have disappeared with the fairy world. On the contrary, these gray chess pieces left the chess game first.
By chance, it was finally preserved in the form of artifacts."
…
The elders of Xianzhou were talking a lot.
Finally, after half a day of discussion, a preliminary unified opinion was reached.
Since the essence is the world, then use the method of treating the world to refine it.
The elders recommended Jian Daosheng, Zhong Daogong and other five people to merge their minds and refine them together.
Among the five people, Li Fan was not included.
In order to avoid causing Li Fan's displeasure, the elders of Xianzhou also specially explained it.
Although Li Fan has gained the trust of the elders, after all, he has only joined Xianzhou for a short time. The most important reason is that his "end is approaching."
If he is allowed to participate in it now, in less than twenty years, after his death, he will inevitably have to be sacrificed again.
etc.
…
Li Fan waved his hand with an indifferent expression.
He stared straight at the gray chess piece that was being refined by everyone in the field.
"This thing is the secret hand left by Sun Miaomiao. If there is an abnormality during the refining process, it means that Sun Miaomiao is still alive in the world..." Li Fan thought to himself.
However, he was disappointed.
The refining process of the immortal boat elders was surprisingly smooth.
Soon, the gray color on the refined chess pieces seemed to fade a bit.
But after all, the gray has not completely faded away.
"Has Sun Piaomiao really fallen?"
Doubts flashed through his mind, and Li Fan suppressed them for the time being and asked Zhong Daogong and others about their feelings.
"It's wonderful. The originally orderly and orderly way of heaven in the world seems to have been hammered and re-forged. Such methods are so magical and so skillful!"
"It's not just a form that has been forged. It has even forged hundreds of future possibilities. After refining it, you can manipulate it and transform into these forms at will..."
"Well, this kind of transformation should require a lot of energy. Even the spiritual energy is not enough to support it."
"I tried it, but the power of the real immortal seal script didn't work either." Nangong Lie's tone was full of regret.
As if they had obtained a novel treasure, the elders of the Immortal Boat were overjoyed and studied the gray chess pieces.
"Acquisition of this object is of great significance to our fairy boat!"
"Perhaps our resource problems will be greatly alleviated for a long time to come!"
"Oh, such an important treasure has been hidden deep in our fairy boat treasure house. If it weren't for Brother Li's reminder, we really don't know how long we would have buried it!"
The elders of Xianzhou were mixed with joy and annoyance, and finally changed the shape of the gray chess pieces.
It is no longer the Medicine King Cauldron that can cultivate spiritual plants.
Rather, it is the most suitable appearance for the current fairy boat.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
It's like a heavy hammer of nothingness, beating the gray chess pieces.
This originally small thing gradually expanded in the spatial structure.
Directly covering the fairy boat shell.
Under Li Fan's gaze, the immortal boat seemed to grow, covered with a layer of gray hard horn.
These cuticles not only play a protective role.
It can also continuously provide spiritual energy and resources to the fairy boat.
"With the world's protective shell, our fairy boat's protective capabilities have almost doubled. Even its stability has been qualitatively improved."
"No need to worry anymore. Just the spread of the original power of a true immortal seal character will cause catastrophe to the immortal boat!"
"The gray chess pieces have accumulated ten thousand years of vitality, and now we have transferred them all to the sacred tree."
"The effect is very significant! At least within a hundred years, unless there are special circumstances, the sacred tree will no longer need to absorb food."
…
All the elders in Xianzhou were all smiling.
At this time, Li Fan suddenly said coldly: "Everyone, you have gained so much this time, shouldn't you just give up on your plan to cross the high wall?"
The extremely lively scene suddenly became deserted.
The elders subconsciously avoided Li Fan's gaze.
In the end, it was Zhong Daogong who came forward to comfort him: "You don't have to worry too much."
"Crossing the high wall is a strategy we have set long ago, and it will not change due to the abundance of supplies. You can rest assured on this."
"but……"
"The more preparations, the better. According to the interaction between these gray chess pieces, there are at least eleven other similar ones in the Darkest Star Sea."
"Just one of them has brought almost earth-shaking changes to our fairy boat. If we collect the full set of chess pieces..." Zhong Daogong's eyes were bright.
"What do you think, fellow Taoist? By then, I'm afraid I won't need any other help. I can break through the high wall with just the layers of protection on the outside!"
"Moreover, the direction pointed by the induction room is very clear. At our speed, even if we travel across the entire star sea, it will not take more than three years at most. At the same time, the period of rushing will not affect our other preparations.
…”
Zhong Daogong gave a reasonable explanation.
After Li Fan pondered for a moment, he nodded slightly, acknowledging his statement.
The originally strange atmosphere became normal again.
"In that case, let's set off without further delay."
"I'm also very curious about what will happen after gathering this set of gray chess pieces." Li Fan said lightly.
The elders looked at each other and then held a simple discussion meeting.
First, a consensus was reached: "The Xuanxian Ark must not be able to move easily."
"Yes, the current strength of the boat is not enough to face the pressure under the high wall."
"Collecting the gray chess pieces does not require us to dispatch them all. On the contrary, it seems cumbersome. It is far less convenient than us doing it alone."
"Relying on induction, I sit in command and guide the direction. Others disperse to various parts of the star sea to collect gray chess pieces."
"This should be more efficient."
"At least three people should be in a group to prevent accidents."
"There are seven or eight of them. They are not far from where we are currently. It seems to be where the Great Wall of the Remaining World is. Let's finish collecting the ones there first."
…
During the discussion among the elders, Li Fan also said in a deep voice: "I can also do my best. With the help of escape techniques, even crossing the sea of stars only takes one day."
This time, the Xianzhou elders had no reason to reject Li Fan's proposal.
The initial discussion results were reached, and the first task of recovering the gray chess pieces was carried out by Li Fan, Nangong Lie, Lu Yuzhi, and four elders of the Zhengdao Academy named Xu Gongding.
"Find out the situation first. If you encounter any danger, self-preservation should be your first priority." Before leaving, Zhong Daogong warned.
