Chapter 278 Endless
Counting Lin Bai and Li Wusheng who had just arrived, there were seven people in the palace.
At this time, Li Wusheng was lying in front of a huge stone pillar, looking at the chessboard with worry on his face.
Ying Wangtian stood in front of the chessboard in the middle, talking to a man and a woman next to him, smiling happily.
Yin Yan sat alone in a corner of the hall, closing his eyes and resting.
Lin Bai and Mu Zhen were staying in front of another chessboard, talking via voice transmission.
"Junior Sister Mu, do you want to gamble again?" Ying Wangtian said with a smile.
"How can you dampen senior brother's interest?" Mu Zhenqiao smiled sweetly.
"Then let's bet on whether Junior Brother Du can pass the test." Ying Wangtian was a gentleman, as gentle as jade. He looked at Lin Bai again and asked with a smile: "Junior Brother Zhuanlun, is he happy?"
"That's my wish! I don't understand either, so how about I just follow Senior Sister Mu and place a bet?" Lin Bai agreed with a smile.
Both sides should come down and agree on the winning-losing ratio.
"This man is headstrong, has a high self-esteem, doesn't know how to restrain himself, and offends me repeatedly. I want to kill him!" Mu Zhen handed over the spirit stone, set the gambling amount, and sent a message to Lin Bai with a smile.
"Sister Zhen, just do it. I was taught by the Gu family to act with benevolence and justice, make friends with everyone, and never do anything harmful to nature! But if Sister Zhen does something, I will not stand in the way." Lin Bai spoke righteously, like a gentleman.
"Allow you to ask a question, or give you something to save your life!" Mu Zhen promised a reward.
"I am willing to die for Sister Zhen!" Lin Bai agreed immediately.
"What are you two talking about?" Ying Wangtian asked when he saw Lin Mu and Lin Mu chatting endlessly.
"Lin Zhuanlun wants to make friends with Senior Brother Ying, so he asked me about Senior Brother's interests!" Mu Zhen smiled gently.
Lin Bai bowed slightly toward Ying Wangtian humbly, with a smile on his face.
"If you are a descendant of the previous generation, you can naturally be friends with me. It's just that the Gu family is a bit inferior, but Junior Brother Calabash is Junior Sister Li's adoptive father, which is still a little different." Ying Wangtian smiled.
"Senior brother, you are joking." Lin Bai smiled and bowed again.
Ying Wangtian smiled slightly, snorted coldly, and said no more.
Lin Bai didn't bother to say anything, because he really hated this person in his heart.
"I thought that I would be diligent and kind to others all my life, but you started to have grudges with others after you came here!" Lin Bai complained and sent a message to Sister Chao Zhen.
"You can kill me or not!" Mu Zhen was angry.
"Let's talk about it when we have a chance..." Lin Bai acted cautiously throughout his life.
The two chatted for a while, and Lin Bai asked about what happened here.
According to Sister Zhen, the origin of this hall is unknown, its height is unknown, and the height of the nine supporting stone pillars is also unknown.
Each stone pillar seemed to have been cut off by a sword, but it did not fall down. On the contrary, the disconnection point is supported by the chessboard world. Everyone in this trial has to enter the chessboard. Only when they leave the chessboard can they pass the trial.
The methods for escaping from the nine chessboards are different. Yin Yan was the first to pass, Mu Zhen was the second, and then Ying Wangtian and the three of them passed together.
Lin Bai stepped forward and looked at the chessboards one by one. It was true that the person who came out first had the advantage and could hear and see other chessboards. Apart from not knowing what is going on in his heart, no matter what actions he makes or what magical powers he displays, he cannot escape prying eyes.
"Fortunately, I followed the common laws and walked in the air. I didn't reveal my escape method or use other magical powers." Lin Bai sighed inwardly, feeling relieved.
After checking the stone pillar chessboards one by one, specifically avoiding the one Li Wusheng was looking at, Lin Bai walked around the hall again.
When Ying Wangtian saw Lin Bai investigating seriously, he ignored it. The two people with him couldn't stop laughing.
Lin Bai was very disappointed. Ying Wangtian was Li Wusheng's senior brother, and he was Li Wusheng's godfather, but they didn't even have the slightest bit of etiquette. It was really disappointing!
"Look for an opportunity and see if I can kill them! Although I am good-hearted, Sister Zhen has murderous intentions. Naturally, I am on Sister Zhen's side!"
Lin Bai is a pure and honest gentleman, and naturally he will not kill people without reason.
"Well, if Miaomiao was here, she would definitely be able to think of a better reason for me to kill!" Lin Bai couldn't help but think of his good apprentice.
Although the apprentice smells like a sycophant, he is actually worried about his master before he does!
I thought for a while and wanted to talk to Sister Zhen again, but Li Wusheng stuck to me.
"King Calabash, you have a lot of ideas. I'll think of a way to help you, Senior Brother Mo!" Li Wusheng held onto Lin Bai's sleeve without letting go, but looked at the chessboard with concern.
"How can I help with the trial?" Lin Bai was shocked. It was really unreliable that Li Wusheng didn't ask for help from his senior brother Ying Wangtian, but instead asked for his godfather!
"You and I live in the same world, so of course I know what you're capable of!" Li Wusheng didn't let go at all, he was clearly determined to defeat Lin Bai.
The two of them had stayed in the secret realm of the chessboard for several lifetimes, and she knew that Junior Brother Zhuanlun had some abilities. Although she didn't know how good he was at fighting, in terms of his knowledge and understanding, and even his ability to rebel and counterattack, he was indeed quite good.
Lin Bai looked up to the sky and sighed, and said through a message: "Senior Brother Ying is a scholar of heaven and a descendant of the Lord of Jiuzhe Mountain. You are blind to ask!"
"If I ask him, I'm just humiliating myself! He always looks down on me, so I won't ask!" Li Wusheng was also angry.
Lin Bai thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Senior sister, I really have no choice."
He spread his hands, looking helpless.
"How many years of friendship between monarch and minister is it? Although we look back on each other, we still have the love between father and daughter. We still have to help." Li said silently.
"..." Lin Bai really admired him. For the sake of her lover, Senior Sister Li had no shame at all and actually accepted her as her godfather.
"Brother Calabash, this place is beneficial to the Yuanying of the Dao. I only hope that I can give Brother Cheng a little help so that he can make some progress." Li Wusheng said in a very sincere voice.
Lin Bai admired him very much!
"Senior sister, I'm just a country boy..." Lin Bai shook his head.
"I owe you a favor!" Li Wusheng finally promised.
"It may not work!" Lin Bai was still very sincere.
"Succeed or not, I owe you a favor!" Li Wusheng grabbed Lin Bai's sleeve and nodded vigorously.
"Mo Yingcheng treats you well!" Mu Zhen saw that Lin and Li kept transmitting messages, so she quickly transmitted messages.
Lin Bai never imagined that he would be so miserable in Sister Zhen's eyes, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh!
In desperation, Lin Bai took a closer look at the chessboard in response to Li Wusheng's request.
The chessboard that Mo Yingcheng was on was a vast forest with thousands of miles of mountains and forests, where monsters and beasts were everywhere, and all of them were good at it.
Mo Yingcheng and his two other teammates were beaten and were running around like headless flies.
Lin Bai carefully reflected the place where Mo Yingcheng was in his mind, closed his eyes and came to the stone plate, describing it in detail.
A tiny little world appeared in front of him. Lin Bai was confident that he could touch the special effects of this place and exert influence, but he still stopped his hand.
Opening his eyes and looking at Li Wusheng sincerely, Lin Bai sighed: "There is nothing I can do. Senior sister, think about it, if I can help, is the trial still a trial?"
Li Wusheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes."
She stopped making noise and went to find Ying Wangtian and asked them how to get out of the trial.
Lin Bai had some time to relax and sat cross-legged on the ground, recalling the stories of his old friends.
Back then, when I stepped into Wuxiang Tomb, I experienced strange things, and finally I was defeated and turned into armor, destroyed Yue Fengshu, obtained the secret of good fortune, and harvested the gourd.
Then when he left Wuxiang Tomb, he saw a strange sight. He actually glimpsed a large hall. Jiang Xingchi's corpses were scattered around him, and he was looking at a chessboard.
At that time, Lin Bai did not see how the chess pieces were laid out on the chessboard, but the shape of the main hall seemed to be quite similar to this place.
Based on many contacts with Jiang Xingchi, Lin Bai concluded that his destiny should be like a chessboard. If you think so, Jiang Xingchi seems to have acquired the inheritance here, or perhaps gained something else.
"Jiang Xingchi Yuanying has hope."
"If he has really been here, then this is still the place where Taoist Wuxiang stops!"
"Previously at the bottom of the Endless River, Li Wusheng said that those pebbles of fluorite were left behind by Master Wuxiang when he was struck by the Sword Immortal and destroyed the magic weapon..."
"The Endless River was cut with a powerful sword, and the Wuxiang Taoist Master is a figure who can reach heaven and earth. Can he really be hurt by this sword?"
Lin Bai muttered for a long time, but got nothing. He could only hope to find some clues.
Anyway, I have a sense of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, and the stone tablets are also warm, just like the day I entered Wuxiang Tomb.
Lin Bai concluded that there was a treasure here, and it was consistent with his destiny or the path he was looking for!
He returned to the corner and sat next to Mu Zhen.
"Anything gained?" Mu Zhen couldn't help but curiously asked when she saw Lin Bai pondering for a long time.
"No." Lin Bai shook his head and asked via voice transmission: "Did Sister Zhen gain anything?"
"This is the Taoist Master's dojo."
Mu Zhen was very sure, "With the power of the Wuxiang Dao Master, the dojo must be extremely vast. This place is just one of her creations, and it just slowly disappears as time goes by."
"Where did Master Wuxiang come from, and who killed him?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
"As beautiful as she is in the forest, it's natural for someone to cause trouble for her."
With a smile on her face, Mu Zhen said in a low voice: "In this world, there are the East China Sea, South Sky, Beihuang, and Xixuan regions, as well as the Zhongzhou Holy Land. The Taoist Master Wuxiang is a rising star, and his dojo occupies one place in the East China Sea. Only one place is in the East China Sea. It's a pity that God is jealous of talents. Although she has achieved great success, she will inevitably fall."
Lin Bai didn't dare to ask in detail. Sister Zhen had said before that if she had something to say, it would be known.
Presumably, the person who suppressed the Wuxiang Taoist, or the person who entangled everyone to join forces to suppress the Wuxiang Taoist, was extremely good!
"What realm is it?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
"Generally speaking..." Mu Zhen paused for a moment and said with a smile: "My generation of Jindan monks naturally cannot be on the stage. If you can prove the Nascent Soul, you can have a glimpse of the wonders of the Tao. When you reach the realm of transformation, you can Once you have entered the palace, your every move is the power of the Great Dao. The difference between the Transformation Spirit and the Spirit Transformation cultivator is greater than the difference between the Spirit Transformation cultivator and the Qi Practitioner cultivator. Those who have understood the Dao can easily kill those of the same level."
Mu Zhen sighed, "Beyond the gods, there are monks who refine the void. It is said that if you combine the sound of the Tao, or even the body of the Tao, you can be called a Tao master."
"How many Taoist masters are there in the world?" Lin Bai asked again.
"As far as I know, after the death of Taoist Wuxiang, there are still eight others in total." Mu Zhen said.
"Eight... Wuxiang Dao Masters have fallen. Doesn't that add up to nine?" Lin Bai understood that the person who killed Wuxiang Dao Master must also be one of the Taoist masters, or even more than one.
And Sister Zhen’s ancestor might be a Taoist master, or at least a high-level cultivator of spiritual transformation!
"I'm no more than an ant now, it's too early to think about this." Seeing Lin Bai's silence, Mu Zhen patted him on the shoulder gently and explained: "The avenue is endless. Just move forward step by step, and you will be able to reach the place where there is no one." Realm! ”
"On to the next Taoist Master Wuxiang?" Lin Bai smiled.
Mu Zhen naturally understood what Lin Bai meant, which was that when his cultivation reached the level of Taoist Wuxiang, he would be strangled again.
"Someone will help." Mu Zhen said.
Lin Bai nodded, with a look of determination and yearning on his face.
"You are always not afraid of difficulties and have an indomitable will to move forward." Mu Zhen said softly, "I want to sleep with you."
"..." Lin Bai was speechless. He looked around and saw that there seemed to be no place to sleep...
The two chatted nonsense for a while, and then Mu Zhen was called out by Ying Wangtian again and continued talking about the bet.
Lin Bai was not idle either and continued to look at the chessboard one by one.
After reading them one by one, Lin Bai only hoped that he could remember the chessboard in his mind so that he could carve it on the stone plate and then help refine the gourd.
"Haha, Junior Sister Mu, you lost again!"
Five days later, Du Changying rushed out of the trial, and Ying Wangtian approached Mu Zhen.
Mu Zhen lost the bet, so she obediently handed over the spirit stone, "Senior Brother Ying not only has endless wonderful skills, but he also has the ability to recognize people!"
"Junior sister is so complimentary." Ying Wangtian accepted the spirit stone nonchalantly. He didn't value these spiritual stones, he was just looking for fun.
"Lin Zhuanlun and I know each other from the Daoyin Sect. I think he is unusual. What do you think, senior brother?" Mu Zhen asked with a smile.
Ying Wangtian looked at Lin Bai, looked up and down, his eyes flashed, and said: "Although there are advantages, it is because he clings to the Gu family that he becomes powerful, and loses the inferiority! I heard that the Gu family's Nascent Soul Gu Qingshui is very beautiful, but rarely interacts with others. He only loves Lin Zhuanlun very much. Haha, Gao Xiu is not free from worldly lust. This Lin Zhuanlun must have moved to the Qingyun Mountain of the Gu family!"
"Senior brother, I wish you the best! This Lin Zhuanlun is indeed a lecherous person!" Mu Zhen's face turned serious and she said in a voice message: "During the Daoyin Sect, this person was always entangled with me. Because of the reputation of the Gu family in Qiaoshan, it's hard for me to tell him. What.”
"Junior sister wants to..." Ying Wangtian had a smile on his face.
"Now that we have entered the secret realm, we should have a destiny of life and death!" Mu Zhen sent a message and smiled at Ying Wangtian.
"Junior sister is kind and has a strong heart towards the Tao, so she will naturally get what she wants." Ying Wangtian nodded.
This means that if given the chance, he would help get rid of Lin Zhuanlun!
Lin Bai was looking at a chessboard, his heart felt cold for no reason, and he felt vaguely uneasy.
Looking around, Li Wusheng was still worried about his lover, Yin Yan was sitting cross-legged, and Sister Zhen was joking with Ying Wangtian.
"Don't Sister Zhen sell me out? You were just talking about sleeping!" Lin Bai muttered in his heart.
"Thank you, senior brother." Mu Zhen smiled, bowed to Ying Wangtian, and then left, sending a message to Lin Bai, saying: "Ying Wangtian wants to kill you! I can't stop you!"
"You instigated it, right?" Lin Bai didn't believe that someone would be an enemy of a good person like himself.
"Believe it or not!" Mu Zhen said.
"..." Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "We enter Jindan, we are weak and weak, and we have always been kind to others. How could Senior Brother Ying, a proud man of heaven, see people like me? How could he have the intention to kill me?" ”
"Then I don't care." Mu Zhen smiled.
"..." Lin Bai lost his temper and sent a message: "Good sister Zhen, let's work together."
"Okay!" Mu Zhen smiled.
The two of them squatted in a corner of the hall, sitting face to face with expressionless faces, and kept transmitting messages.
It was the first time that Lin Bai and Sister Zhen had joined hands with a Yin person, so they naturally had to make more preparations. Unfortunately, both of them were so full of bad ideas that they didn't even want to say more about their own magical powers.
After arguing for a long time, Lin Bai discovered that both of them understood the method of alchemy, both understood the method of formation, and both understood the beauty of dual cultivation...
As for the means of fighting the enemy and the power of the magic weapon, not a word was revealed.
"What a bastard! It's probably like this if you share the same bed but have different dreams." Lin Bai sighed.
After waiting for another three days, Mo Yingcheng passed the test. Although he was embarrassed, he finally relieved Li Wusheng's lovesickness.
Before Mo Yingcheng could pay his respects to his adoptive father, Ying Wangtian stood under the nine pillars and said loudly: "Together with the number of nine people, we will come and see the sword that cuts the endless river!"
He stretched out his hand and pressed it on the chessboard, and the nine pillars flickered.
When everyone was at a loss, they saw an endless sword light coming across, as if it was about to cut apart everything in the world.
Or, even the infinity of time must be divided into two halves.
