The Life Go board was made of white jade. Its latitude and longitude were outlined by golden threads, twenty-nine vertical and horizontal lines. Black and white Go stones were already placed on it. Gu Hai immediately guessed that this was the advanced version of the Twenty-Nine Line-Pair World Go Puzzle.
With just one look, Gu Hai sensed the complexity of this Go board, more than ten times that of the Dragon Pinning Sect's.
"Hey? Why are there three types of Go stones at the death board? "Guqin suddenly showed a puzzled expression.
Gu Hai turned his head to look.
However, the death board looked extremely strange. It looked like a square abyss with many Go stones floating above it. Each Go stone was connected to a golden thread that led to the abyss.
Nearly one hundred thousand Go stones floated at the entrance of the square abyss. One-third were white Go stones, one-third were black Go stones, and one-third were transparent Go stones that looked like glass Go stones floating above the square abyss.
Clack! Clack!
Clack! Suddenly, some Go stones shattered.
"It's those Go stones. They all became Go stones!" Long Wanqing said worriedly.
"Became Go stones?" Gu Hai asked, feeling confused.
"Adoptive Father, is this a Go board? Why are there no latitude and longitude lines? Furthermore, there are one hundred thousand Go stones? "Guqin asked, feeling confused.
"The interior of this square Go board might be the Twenty-Nine Line-Pair World. Old Man Guanqi modified it to use people as Go stones. Everyone is a Go stone. There should be one hundred thousand people in there, struggling in the Go board's world!" Gu Hai said with a frown.
Just at this moment, Montes's furious roar came from the black Go board. "Beast! My Great Feng Mafia Family has internal conflicts. However, it is not a place for a beast like you to act so impudently!"
"Fu Xue, this inheritance is not for you to meddle with. Humph!" Wei Yang snorted coldly.
Boom!
"Roar! Montes, Wei Yang, aren't you two master and disciple at odds with each other? You bastards! Why are you targeting me?! "The flood dragon Fu Xue roared from the black Go stone abyss.
"Still alive? Are they still alive in the abyss?" Long Wanqing clenched her fists and asked nervously.
Gu Hai frowned. After all, he couldn't guess what was going on at first glance.
"Division Leader Gu, Grandmaster Liu Nian is inside. I am also very worried. I will enter the Game of Death and show it to Mr Goode. I hope it will be useful to Mr Goode!" A Long Wanqing servant said Solemnly.
"Oh?" Gu Hai showed a hint of surprise.
The servant seemed to turn away from the peony flower.
"Hu!"
Suddenly, a huge suction force appeared, and the servant was sucked into the square abyss without any resistance.
When it flew over, its body suddenly distorted and turned into a black chess piece. The chess piece floated above the square abyss. Then, a thin golden line came out of the black chess piece and rushed into the abyss.
"Did he really become a chess piece?" Guqin was surprised.
"No!" Gu Hai shook his head.
"Huh?"
"He did not become a chess piece. Instead, he entered the Go puzzle world. That chess piece should be a Go stone clone that this world created for him. It floated at the entrance to the deep abyss. Whatever the main body encountered in the Go puzzle world, the entrance to the Go puzzle world would show its location and status. For example, the three Go stones over there shattered. That means that the main body died in the Go puzzle world," Gu Hai said seriously.
"Could it be that he did not become a chess piece?" Long Wanqing asked in shock.
Gu Hai nodded and said, "Back then, when the Go puzzle world created a Go stone clone for you and Grandmaster Liu Nian, Grandmaster Liu Nian used the Dragon Fixing Hoop to push you out. You saw Grandmaster Liu Nian become a chess piece, so … "
"Then, what is going on?" Long Wanqing asked, feeling confused.
Gu Hai remained silent for a while before saying, "Old Man Guanqi should have made preparations for his inheritance."
"Oh? Old Man Guanqi's inheritance? Isn't it the dragon vein? "Long Wanqing asked in shock." Huh?
Wei Yang mentioned the word 'inheritance' earlier? "Guqin felt slightly stunned as well.
Gu Hai nodded and said, "It is the inheritance, the inheritance that Old Man Guanqi left behind. The dragon vein is only a part of Old Man Guanqi's inheritance. As for the details, I do not know. Old Man Guanqi wanted someone to inherit his inheritance. What Old Man Guanqi wanted the most was someone with extraordinary Go skills like him. If one could solve the life chess piece, one could inherit his inheritance. "
"The life chess piece?" Long Wanqing raised her eyebrows and shook her head. "No one has ever solved the life chess piece. Anyone who lost died to the Go puzzle's strangulation force. Previously, a large number of Shenji Battalion disciples died to the strangulation force of the life chess piece. It is so complicated that even Grandmaster Liu Nian does not dare to play it. "
"That is because one does not have enough Go skills. One cannot directly obtain Old Man Guanqi's inheritance. Perhaps Old Man Guanqi also thought of this and might not be able to solve it. Hence, he set up a death chess piece. Perhaps the death chess piece does not require too much Go skills, "Gu Hai analyzed.
"The death chess piece? Added later? "Guqin said with a frown.
"Perhaps. Anyone who enters Peony Flower will give up on the life chess piece and be pushed into the world of the death chess piece. Inside, they will fight for the inheritance based on their own ability. I do not know what happens inside, but it is not good news. " However, it might not be a good thing! "Gu Hai said with a frown.
"What do you mean?"
"In the life chess piece, one will definitely die if one loses. What do you think will happen if one cannot win the death chess piece? "Gu Hai asked with a frown.
"Then, only death?" Guqin said, slightly stunned.
"However, there is only one inheritance. In that case, only one person can win. The rest are all losers!" Worry flashed in Gu Hai's eyes.
"Aside from the only winner, the rest will die in the internal struggle?" Long Wanqing's expression changed.
Gu Hai nodded and said, "That is my guess."
"Doesn't that mean that as long as one enters this gigantic peony flower, only one person can obtain the inheritance while the rest will die? All the one hundred thousand cultivators inside will die? "Long Wanqing showed a worried expression.
"Is this why the fifty thousand cultivators in the periphery do not dare to enter? They might have been waiting here for a long time already. They only enter but not leave. At first, it did not matter. However, as time passed, they became afraid, so they did not dare to enter? "Guqin said with a sullen expression.
Everyone's expression changed. In front of them was a white fog. The pure white peony was no longer beautiful in their hearts. Instead, it looked even more sinister than the Asura Hell.
Is this a man-eating peony flower?
Gu Hai nodded.
"Adoptive Father, can you solve the life puzzle?" Guqin asked from the Go board.
"Let's give it a try." Gu Hai nodded.
Everyone looked at Gu Hai with anticipation.
However, they saw Gu Hai slowly sit down on one end of the Go board, facing Old Man Guanqi's puppet across from him.
"The Go board has been restarted. Please make your move!" the white-haired old man across from him said with a faint smile.
Gu Hai nodded. Then, he lowered his head and carefully looked at the Go board. Gu Hai did not make his move. Instead, he continued to deduce in his heart.
"The Great Feng Mafia Family's elementary chapter, the Dragon Pinning Sect's intermediate chapter, and the Peony Sect's advanced chapter. Although the three chapters are different, there is a progressive process. If I had not read the elementary and intermediate chapters, I would not be able to enter this Go board easily. How complicated!" Gu Hai frowned heavily.
This was the first time Gu Hai found a Go board complicated.
Gu Hai slowly sank his consciousness into it and looked at the Go board.
Long Wanqing, Guqin, and the others waited patiently. Although they felt very anxious, they did not dare to disturb Gu Hai. Gu Hai sat there for an entire day.
Outside, the fifty thousand cultivators paid close attention to the Peony Sect. They also looked forward to Gu Hai's arrival.
Although the fog shrouded the place, they could still make out the general picture.
"Gu Hai has been sitting there for an entire day. Why has he not made his move yet?"
"Indeed. Could it be that he does not dare to make his move and is purposely stalling for time?"
"That's not right. Ten days ago, someone imitated Gu Hai and purposely stalled for time. In the end, that Go board killed that person in less than four hours."
"Why can Gu Hai stall for time? This is not fair! "
…
…
…
Countless cultivators showed unconvinced expressions.
Even so, no one dared to step forward.
Countless people had already died in the Life Go board. As for the Death Go board, one hundred thousand cultivators had entered, but not a single one had come out alive.
That Peony Sect was a land of death. It was over once one stepped into it.
Although everyone wanted to obtain the dragon vein, one needed to be alive to obtain it. Wasn't it too dangerous for Old Man Guanqi to give something to Gu Hai?
This Go board was indeed complicated. However, due to its complexity, there were also many comprehensions. Here, Gu Hai suddenly gained many new comprehensions. It was like he instantly comprehended many things in his mind.
The black Go stone continued to hover in the space between Gu Hai's eyebrows like it was ruling the world. The white crystal shard was beside it, and the one hundred thousand Go puzzles below had already merged after a long round of four-by-four. However, as Gu Hai suddenly comprehended many things, he suddenly comprehended many things. All of a sudden, the chessboard below began to merge together at an extremely strange speed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Go boards quickly merged. Soon, the eighty thousand Go puzzles turned into twenty thousand four-by-four Go puzzles. The remaining twenty thousand seemed extremely complicated in the first place and could not be merged immediately.
"It seems like they can be condensed," Gu Hai said after some thought.
Then, one of the four-by-four Go puzzles suddenly shrank, removing some useless Go pieces and some vertical and horizontal lines. Slowly, it turned back into a nineteen-by-nineteen Go board. However, at this moment, this Go board was different from the previous four. However, it seemed to contain the shadows of the previous four Go boards. It was like all the essence of the previous four Go boards had been condensed into this one.
"Om!" "Om!" "Om!" "Om!" "…"
Condense … condense … condense …
The twenty thousand large Go boards quickly condensed. After another day, they turned back into small Go boards.
These were all nineteen-by-nineteen Go boards. Including the Go puzzles that could not be merged, there were forty thousand small Go puzzles. Each and every one of them was extremely complicated.
"The more thoughts and laws a Go board contains, the more one can form a ritual array?" Gu Hai felt slightly stunned.
While looking at the Twenty-Nine Line-Pair World Go Puzzle, Xiao Chen looked at the forty thousand Go puzzles in his forehead space. Gu Hai had a feeling that the Go puzzles were all connected. If he could condense these forty thousand Go puzzles, perhaps he could use them to lay a ritual array?
Perhaps this was how Old Man Guanqi's Twenty-Eight Line-Pair World Go Puzzles and Twenty-Nine Line-Pair World Go Puzzles came about?
Merging, condensing, removing the impurities, extracting the essence, and making the laws denser, making the perfect even more perfect? Was this the Go Great Dao?
Boom!
Of the forty thousand complicated Go puzzles in Xiao Chen's forehead space, four of them merged, forming a four-by-four Go board again.
"My guess was right! Merging and condensing Go puzzles is the foundation for constructing a ritual array, the beginning of creating a world? "Gu Hai's eyes grew increasingly bright.
Merging all forty thousand complicated Go puzzles was not something that could be done immediately. Xiao Chen could only slowly deduce them. Gu Hai slowly immersed his consciousness into the Twenty-Nine Line-Pair World Go Puzzles.
Gu Hai sank in and out. Suddenly, he felt his consciousness enter the Go puzzle.
Xiao Chen felt like he was standing on a vast land, the world white. He was all alone.
Suddenly, a woman appeared not far away.
"Xian 'er?" Gu Hai felt slightly stunned. He knew that this was an illusion.
However, he saw a golden thread coming out of his body, connecting him to Chen Xian 'er. The golden thread seemed to have the word "love" circling it.
Then, four children suddenly appeared not far away.
"Guqin, Guhan, Gutang, and Guming?" Gu Hai looked at the four children in confusion.
The golden thread connected him to the four children again. The golden thread seemed to have the word "kinship" circling it.
Suddenly, an azure-colored fog appeared not far away. A group of people stood in the fog, their faces obscured. The leader was a azure-robed man. He gave off a soul-stirring aura. Just looking at him would make one's heart jump.
The golden thread connected Gu Hai to this group of people. The golden thread circled the word "hatred."
More people appeared out of nowhere on the vast land. Every person had a golden thread connected to Gu Hai. Every thin thread recorded the relationship between Gu Hai and this person.
Gu Hai stood on this vast land. He seemed to be deep in thought, as if he had understood something.
After a long time, Gu Hai suddenly looked at the sky. He let out a long breath and said, "I understand now. The world is a chessboard, and all living things are chess pieces. The gratitude and grudges between people are like invisible lines of longitude and latitude. The lines of longitude and latitude on the chessboard are connected to the chess pieces, causing the chess pieces to struggle in the chessboard and unable to escape. All living things are chess pieces. The world is heartless and uses all living things as chess pieces!"
"Weng!"
Gu Hai seemed to have understood something in an instant. His body emitted a golden halo. He slowly withdrew his consciousness from the chessboard.
He raised his head and looked at the Old Man Guanqi's puppet opposite him.
"Why hasn't Foster Father made his move?" Guqin said worriedly.
"Yeah, it's been three days. Is Gu Hai still thinking?" Long Wanqing was also very worried.
Countless cultivators in the outside world were also looking at Gu Hai blankly at this moment. He had been sitting there for three days. Was he playing chess?
"Congratulations. You are the only person to solve this chessboard so far!" the Old Man Guanqi's puppet suddenly said.
The Old Man Guanqi's puppet's voice was not loud. However, it strangely reached everyone's ears.
"Wow!"
The fifty thousand cultivators watching immediately burst into an uproar.
"How can this be? Gu Hai did not make a single move!"
"How did he solve it? This is cheating! "
"This is not fair. Can he solve the chessboard by sitting there for three days? I can do it too! "
…
…
…
Long Wanqing and Guqin looked at the Old Man Guanqi's puppet in confusion. He solved it just like that? He did not move at all.
"You already solved the Go puzzle. Please make your move! Prepare to receive my inheritance! "the Old Man Guanqi said again.
