Tengen Island, in the Innate Puzzle World, Sky Chess Pavilion, Guanqi Palace:
The eighteenth elder sat in the large hall. A coffin sat in the north of the hall, and a Go board with nineteen lines floated above it. The Go board was filled with Go stones.
At this moment, a black Go stone slowly changed color, turning white.
"Another black Go stone turned white?" an elder said with a smile.
"A few years ago, when the Innate Puzzle World opened, there were only two hundred white Go stones. In just a few years, there are already two hundred and eighty white Go stones. In just a few years, eighty white Go stones turned white? There are still eighty black Go stones. Does that mean that in a few years, this Go board will turn completely white? "another elder said excitedly.
"Eight hundred years ago, all the Go stones on this Go board were black. Now, they will all turn white. Back then, the pavilion master said that when this Go board turns completely white, the Sky Chess Pavilion will reenter the Divine Continent. Soon. How many more years? "
The elders looked at the first elder excitedly.
The first elder took a deep breath and said, "To be more precise, in the past few months, a large number of black Go stones turned white. Someone should have collected a large number of the pavilion master's treasures in a short time and put in all their effort to refine them and decipher them."
"Huh? First Elder, what do you mean? "
"Someone put in all their effort to collect the treasures that the pavilion master scattered. Furthermore, that person deciphered and refined them in an extremely short time. There should be more than two hundred of them. That person completely refined them!" the first elder said seriously.
"Two hundred? That's impossible. Who has such strong Go skills? How long has it been? Did one person refine them all? That's impossible! "The elders shook their heads.
"It might not be impossible. Perhaps …" The first elder frowned slightly.
"That Gu Hai?" Everyone looked at the first elder.
The first elder frowned and shook his head, feeling uncertain.
"That might not be the case. Could it be that no one has better Go skills than him? Guanqi's nine sons should not be weaker than him. First Elder … "Everyone immediately shook their heads.
"Never mind. No matter what, there is no harm to us. As long as this Go board turns completely white, it will be fine. "The first elder shook his head and smiled.
Everyone looked at the chessboard.
Three hundred and sixty-one chess pieces. No, to be more precise, there were only three hundred and sixty chess pieces. One chess piece was missing, but it was the Nine and Five position. Where was the original chess piece that had exploded?
Back then, when Gu Hai played against Old Man Guanqi's puppet image in the Innate Puzzle World, that puppet wanted to drain all of Gu Hai's Go skills, wanting to copy all of Gu Hai's one hundred thousand Go puzzles. Unfortunately, it overloaded itself, causing this Go stone to explode.
Looking at this empty space, everyone's face darkened.
"Nine and Five position? If it's incomplete, does that count as exceeding the Pavilion Master's expectations? "
"Even a prophet can't predict the future with absolute certainty, let alone the Pavilion Master's prediction. Back then, the Pavilion Master calculated the entire world, and it was supposed to be foolproof. Perhaps this is a variable that doesn't belong to the entire world! "
"Then …?"
"It doesn't matter. The Pavilion Master should have multiple settings. The white Go stones in the Nine and Five position have disappeared, but there are other replacements. I only know one setting."
"Oh?"
"Nine-Five Island! As long as Nine-Five Island still exists, nothing else matters! "
"Nine-Five Island?" the Elders asked, feeling confused.
"That's right. Nine-Five Island is the Nine-Five Island of the Thousand Islands Sea. Other things might disappear, but Nine-Five Island won't, right? "the first Elder said with a smile.
"Of course, it won't. How can such a large island disappear?" the Elders said with a smile.
Just at this moment, Gu Hai placed a Go stone at the bottom of the sea. When Xiao Chen placed this Go stone, the entire Thousand Islands Sea shook. The floating chessboard in the hall was affected as well.
Boom!
All the Go stones on the Go board shook.
"What?" Everyone's expression changed.
The image of an island suddenly appeared in the empty Nine and Five position on the Go board.
"Is that Nine-Five Island?" an Elder exclaimed in shock.
"Bring out the map of the various islands!" the first Elder's expression changed.
Soon, a stack of maps was brought over. Then, the first Elder found the map of Nine-Five Island. He compared it to the image on the Go board.
"That's right. This is the map of Nine-Five Island. This Go board is indeed connected to the various islands!" the first Elder's expression changed.
"Then, what's going on?" the Elders exclaimed in shock.
"Bring out the Peering Mirror!" the first Elder called out.
Whoosh!
Another magic treasure immediately appeared. This magic treasure looked like a round piece of glass. It faced the image of the island on the Go board. A magnified image appeared on the other side of the mirror.
"Quick, magnify the bottom of the island!" the first Elder called out.
"Buzz!"
The image on the other side of the Peering Mirror quickly magnified and zoomed in. Soon, the image fixed on the bottom of Nine-Five Island.
"There are three people?" an Elder exclaimed in shock.
"Miao Chen? It's him? He is destroying Nine-Five Island? "
"That's not right. Look! It's Gu Hai! It's Gu Hai!" another Elder exclaimed.
The sound could not be heard. However, based on the image, it seemed like Miao Chen and the other woman showed respect to Gu Hai.
"Gu Hai is destroying Nine-Five Island?" an Elder exclaimed in shock.
"Fortunately, he only destroyed half of it. The other half is impossible. That is the Thirty-One Line-Pair World Go Puzzle!" the first Elder said with a glare.
"Thirty-one?" The group of Elders immediately sucked in a cold breath.
Most of the Elders here could not understand the Thirty-One Line-Pair World Go Puzzle. Only the first Elder could recognize it.
"Indeed, it cannot be broken. The three of them flew back to the island!" the first Elder exhaled.
However, Gu Hai's group returned to the Soaring Palace Hall's entrance.
"Imperial Father, how was it?" Guqin immediately asked anxiously.
"It looks like you can only leave first!" Gu Hai said with a deep breath.
"Ah?"
"Nine-Five Island is tied up. If we want Nine-Five Island to ascend, we can only replace it. In other words, we have to place another Go stone to replace Nine-Five Island and be held back by the Thousand Islands Sea's Go board," Gu Hai said solemnly.
"Imperial Father, you are using yourself to replace Nine-Five Island? How can that work?! "Guqin immediately said worriedly.
Replacing meant that Nine-Five Island would leave. Gu Hai would be held back and unable to leave.
"It's fine. This is the Thirty-One Line-Pair World Go Puzzle. We will be able to solve it in a few days. You all leave first! "Gu Hai said with a smile.
"We leave first? But … "Guqin showed some worry.
"Don't worry. We already gave you the flight route. You will be in charge of the ascension next. You all leave first! We will catch up soon! "Gu Hai instructed.
"Yes!" Guqin nodded.
"This official will accompany Your Majesty, right?" Binghime immediately asked.
Gu Hai shook his head and said, "You all leave first. This replacement might trigger the entire Thousand Islands Sea's ritual array. If you stay nearby, you will definitely suffer a backlash. You all leave first! "
"But …" Everyone felt worried.
"No buts. This is the ruler's decree!" Gu Hai said seriously.
"Yes!" everyone answered.
"Dongfang Bubai, if we run into any troublemakers along the way, I will have to trouble you to help my son, Guqin!" Gu Hai looked at Dongfang Bubai.
"Mr. Goode, don't worry!" Dongfang Bubai nodded.
Gu Hai nodded and said, "Amplify the sound!"
Whoosh!
The sound amplification formations activated in the surroundings.
"Citizens of Nine-Five Island, listen up. Now, Nine-Five Island will rise into the air and fly to the Divine Continent. Crown Prince Guqin will be in charge of controlling it. Everything will be fine. Don't worry!" Gu Hai instructed the citizens.
"Yes!" the citizens around Nine-Five Island immediately answered.
After Gu Hai taught Guqin how to control the Life Entrapment Saber, he flew to the bottom of the sea.
Soon, he arrived at the bottom of the sea, where the sixty-two meridians were.
In Guanqi's palace hall:
"First Elder, look! Gu Hai is here again!" someone immediately cried out in alarm.
"Huh? Gu Hai? Why is he here again? He can't solve the Thirty-One Line-Pair World Go Puzzle. What's the point of him coming? "the first elder said with a cold smile.
However, they saw the first elder in the video.
Clack!
Gu Hai tapped another meridian intersection point.
"Hualala!"
All the meridians connected to Nine-Five Island left Nine-Five Island.
The group of elders: "…!"
Rumble …!
At Nine-Five Island, the golden meridians suddenly left Nine-Five Island and instantly formed a large net, trapping half of Gu Hai.
After Nine-Five Island lost its restraints, it floated to the surface of the sea.
On Nine-Five Island, the citizens of the Dahan Island goggled.
"I feel like the ground is flying! Flying!"
"Look, the sea in the distance is sinking. We are really flying!"
"It's floating! It's floating!"
…
…
…
Countless citizens felt excited.
However, Guqin showed an anxious expression. Sure enough, in the distant sky, rolling dark clouds suddenly swept over.
It was not just the sky above Nine-Five Island but the entire Thousand Islands Sea.
The dark clouds of Heaven's Wrath that surrounded Tianyuan Island suddenly expanded and spread in all directions. Thunderous rumbles rang out, covering the entire boundless Thousand Islands Sea.
"Quick! Quick! Quick!" Guqin drove Nine-Five Island into the air with an anxious expression.
Boom!
Nine-Five Island flew out of the sea.
"All Xuanwu, bring the surrounding ships and enter the island immediately! Enter the island immediately!" Guqin shouted.
"Yes!"
The surrounding Xuanwu and ships all left the sea and entered Nine-Five Island.
Boom!
Nine-Five Island left, and a tsunami soared into the sky.
"Quick! Quick!" Guqin showed an anxious expression.
Before Nine-Five Island could rise to the sky, it already started moving quickly on the sea. This movement took one day. Only after one day did it leave its original position.
The situation was extremely dangerous. The dark clouds in the sky immediately sent down countless lightning bolts.
Rumble …!
The lightning bolts struck Nine-Five Island's original position. It seemed like heaven's anger at Tengen Island shifted to Nine-Five Island's original position.
Standing on Nine-Five Island, everyone watched as the waterfall-like lightning bolts scattered in all directions. Their expressions changed.
"Oh no, Your Majesty!" Binghime's expression changed as she quickly charged into the sea.
Lightning bolts shot out everywhere in the sea.
When Binghime approached, a large amount of electricity entered her body. However, she endured the intense pain and soon saw Gu Hai.
Gu Hai seemed to be seated on a circular platform surrounded by golden veins at the bottom of the sea in the distance. When the surrounding lightning bolts approached, they avoided him.
Gu Hai sat cross-legged on the circular platform calmly, placing Go stones on a Go board.
"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Binghime asked worriedly.
Miao Chen flew over from behind, showing a worried expression.
"I'm fine. You all can leave first!" Gu Hai said with a smile from the other side of the light.
"Yes!" Everyone released their bated breaths and flew out of the sea.
They flew to Nine-Five Island and reported to Gu Hai that they were safe. Guqin let out a long breath and nodded.
"Nine-Five Island, rise completely!" Guqin said as he controlled the Life Entrapping Saber.
Rumble …!
Nine-Five Island slowly soared into the sky, going higher and higher. Soon, it even broke through the dark clouds. It soared even higher into the sky.
Countless ordinary people goggled as they watched the ground under their feet soar into the clouds. Perhaps, they would never forget this moment for the rest of their lives.
Everyone showed a smile on their faces. Except for the Sky Chess Pavilion's Eighteenth Elder.
In the scene, Nine-Five Island had already vanished, leaving the ritual array. The group led by the First Elder remained silent for a long time.
After some time, the First Elder said hatefully while feeling conflicted, "Gu Hai!"
