The future was unpredictable. Even the slightest change could cause a huge difference in the future. However, Hetu and the Book of Luo were able to predict the future.
This wasn't the power of laws, but rather an extremely transcendent ability. Even though the He Tu and the Book of Luo couldn't accurately predict everything, even if it was only a vague future, it was already a guiding light for those with exceptional intelligence.
Gu Hai and Old Man Guanqi each controlled the Heavenly Go Chess pieces and closed their eyes to play.
The rotation of countless stars changed again. Previously, because of the Book of Luo, Old Man Guanqi was able to predict the opponent's moves. Even though Gu Hai made countless arrangements, it was a pity that Old Man Guanqi's chess skills weren't inferior to his own. Just a slight prediction of the future was enough to break the balance, allowing Old Man Guanqi to gain the upper hand.
Now, with Hetu in his body, Gu Hai's Body of Six Paths deprived him of his ability to predict. Since Old Man Guanqi could predict Gu Hai's arrangements, Gu Hai could also predict Old Man Guanqi's arrangements.
Although the predictions were vague, it was enough for the two of them. In a short period of time, this battle of thirty-four chess pieces continued for eight days and eight nights without a conclusion.
On the ninth day, Old Man Guanqi was the first to open his eyes. Gu Hai on the opposite side also opened his eyes.
"Repeat, repeat, repeat. Apart from burning my brain, it's useless!" Old Man Guanqi said indifferently.
"Hetu, Book of Luo? How mysterious! "Gu Hai frowned.
Evidently, the two of them were evenly matched in this battle.
"Owner of the Sky Chess Pavilion, I've already experienced your chess skills. I beg you to send me back to eight hundred thousand years later. I won't compete with you anymore!" Gu Hai said solemnly.
Old Man Guanqi shook his head. "It's useless. When I came here, I didn't plan to go back, so I didn't leave behind a trace of time power. I don't have any coordinates for the future."
"Coordinates?" Gu Hai frowned.
"That's right. The law of time is unpredictable. Even the heavens are unable to comprehend it. Do you think I can comprehend it completely? If I can fully comprehend it, wouldn't it be fine if I directly transmigrated to the time before my wife's death? Why go through so much trouble? "Old Mister Guan Qi shook his head.
"What if … what if I have the coordinates?" Gu Hai asked in a low voice.
"Oh?" Old Man Guanqi narrowed his eyes in disbelief.
"I have the coordinates, the coordinates in 800,000 years. Can you send me back?" Solemnly, Gu Hai asked.
"Impossible. I brought all the power of the law of time over here for this battle. I can't afford to lose. I didn't leave behind a single bit!" Old Man Guanqi shook his head.
Gu Hai reached out and took out half a pen. It was the pen that sealed the memories he obtained from Earth. Last time, he used this half pen to connect with the other half of the pen in 800,000 years to send a strand of the Long Zhanguo's divine consciousness over.
"There's a strand here. It connects to 800,000 years later. Take a look!" Gu Hai waved his hand.
"Whoosh!"
The other half of the pen flew towards Old Man Guanqi.
"Pa!" Old Man Guanqi caught it.
Gu Hai didn't fear Old Man Guanqi because he couldn't use the law of time. The power of time in this pen was pitifully small. If he wanted to go back, he would need Old Man Guanqi's help. It didn't matter if he gave the other half of the pen to Old Man Guanqi.
Old Man Guanqi took the pen and immediately checked it.
After a while, he closed his eyes and sent a strand of divine consciousness into the pen.
"Oh? It's really the law of time? Eh? No, your law of time is a little strange. It's different from mine! "Old Man Guanqi exclaimed in surprise.
"What's different?" Gu Hai was puzzled.
Old Man Guanqi frowned and pondered for a while before shaking his head, "It's indeed different. It's like the law of time in the mirror. It looks the same, but it's the opposite. Compared to my previous law of time, one is positive and one is negative, one is positive and one is Yang? Strange, there's a second law of time? "
"No matter what, can you feel the position of the pen in 800,000 years? Can you control this half pen after 800,000 years? "Gu Hai asked expectantly.
"It's not difficult to control it. You can control it in reverse. It's indeed connected to 800,000 years later. Where did you get this?" Old Man Guanqi asked solemnly.
Gu Hai shook his head, obviously unwilling to say.
Since Gu Hai didn't want to say, Old Man Guanqi didn't ask further. Everyone had their own secrets.
"Can you send me back?" Gu Hai asked solemnly.
"Being able to sense the position of the pen in 800,000 years means that history hasn't changed. Heh, send you back? Sorry! "Old Man Guanqi shook his head.
"What?" Gu Hai frowned.
"There's too little time force in this half pen. To open the gate of time, you need a huge amount of time force. But now, I don't have any time force left. It's been completely burned out. There's not a trace left!" Old Man Guanqi shook his head.
"Impossible, time force can't disappear into thin air!" Gu Hai said anxiously.
"Time force? Naturally, it can't disappear into thin air. However, it's gone in this world. It's in the primal chaos space-time. The time force I burned merged with the primal chaos space-time. Unless you open the primal chaos space-time, I can take the time force and use your coordinates to open the gate of time for you. However, the primal chaos space-time can't be opened except by burning a huge amount of time force. It's gone. You can't go back. Don't even think about it! "Old Man Guanqi shook his head.
Can't go back?
Gu Hai's eyelids twitched. He stared at Old Man Guanqi.
After watching for a while, Gu Hai raised his eyebrows. "Wait, you have a way to open the primal chaos space-time and extract the time force inside?"
"Hmm?" Old Man Guanqi frowned slightly.
"I can see the way you played just now. You always take care of everything. You always leave a way out in any desperate situation. You never use up all your strength. This is your style in chess, and it should also be your way of doing things. You always leave a way out. This has become a kind of instinct. You must have left a backup plan in that primal chaos space-time, right? A secret that only you know? "Gu Hai said solemnly.
"You're just guessing!" Old Man Guanqi said solemnly.
"Yes, it's a guess, but am I right?" Gu Hai stared at Old Man Guanqi.
Taking a deep breath, Old Man Guanqi shook his head. "You're wrong. I don't have a way. Even if I did, I wouldn't do it. Once the primal chaos space-time is opened and the Six Paths of Celestial Gods appear, my plan will be for naught. I can't give up my lover for your lover!"
"In that case, our Go game isn't over yet. We have to continue!" Gu Hai said solemnly.
"Oh? Thirty-four Go games, isn't that your limit? "Old Man Guanqi narrowed his eyes.
"Thirty-four Go games is my limit of perfection, but sometimes, perfection isn't the limit!" Gu Hai shook his head.
He squeezed the black Go piece in his hand.
Weng!
The surrounding stars suddenly became restless, spinning rapidly and releasing countless dazzling lights.
"Horizontal thirty-four, vertical thirty-five? Heh, as expected, the limit isn't thirty-four. Your current Go skill is between thirty-four and thirty-five? Half step thirty-five? "Old Man Guanqi narrowed his eyes.
As he spoke, Old Man Guanqi squeezed the white Go piece in his hand.
Boom!
Among the countless stars, a thick fog suddenly erupted, enveloping the stars and Old Man Guanqi, making it impossible to see what was going on.
"Thirty-four isn't the limit?" The Scarlet Emperor said in shock.
Within the fog, Gu Hai was also shocked. He had reached his limit, and his Go game had become countless times more complicated. Yet, Old Man Guanqi had caught up in an instant.
"What's your Go skill?" Gu Hai asked in shock.
"Won't you know if you keep watching? Your Go style is getting more and more different from mine! What a good half step thirty-five? "Old Man Guanqi's eyes flashed with shock.
"Thirty-five? You've reached that step? "Gu Hai asked in shock.
It must be known that Gu Hai had spent one hundred million years comprehending from thirty-four to thirty-five, but he had not been able to cross that threshold, only reaching half step thirty-five. But now, Old Man Guanqi had actually crossed it? This was a heavy blow to Gu Hai. Was his talent in Go so much worse than Old Man Guanqi's?
"Wen Xiu, zither, Go, calligraphy, and painting. Go is different from the other three disciplines. Go is not played by one person. I'm also very surprised that you were able to reach your current level while comprehending on your own. The Go path requires opponents. Only opponents can make you stronger and allow you to break through. My opponent is my future self, but what about you? Self-comprehension? Heh, to be able to reach this step, your talent is truly terrifying! "Old Man Guanqi sighed.
"Talent? Heh, what's the use of talent if I can't win? "Gu Hai sternly said.
"Just admit defeat in this game of Go. You were able to wait two hundred million years in the eighteenth layer of hell, so eight hundred thousand years won't be difficult. Why don't you go see your family after eight hundred thousand years? "Old Man Guanqi said with a shake of his head.
"Eight hundred thousand years? Ha, would they still be my family? I, Gu Hai, have encountered so many opponents and so many problems. What I have relied on is not my talent, but my character. I refuse to admit defeat. So what if it's thirty-five games? I must win this game! "Gu Hai sternly said.
Gu Hai ignored Old Man Guanqi, his mind completely immersed in the Go game.
At this moment, Gu Hai's mind was highly focused, unprecedentedly serious. In his mind, he was calculating every change in the Go game.
Half a step. Just half a step, but Gu Hai had lost again and again.
The black side had lost again and again.
"There are only so many black Go stones. How long can you hold on? Once I remove all your black Go stones, you will have no more Go stones to play! "Old Man Guanqi said.
Gu Hai ignored Old Man Guanqi. With every Go stone, he thought for a long time.
The Go Dao required opponents. In just a short while, Gu Hai had already reached his limits. Although he had reached his limits, playing with Old Man Guanqi provided him with boundless inspiration. This boundless inspiration helped Gu Hai improve his Go skills.
With every Go stone, Gu Hai's Go skills increased.
At this moment, the one hundred thousand Go puzzles he brought from Earth merged into the forehead of Gu Hai's main body. Now, only ten remained. However, these ten extremely complicated Go puzzles suddenly trembled.
Inspired by Old Man Guanqi's Go skills, eight of the ten Go puzzles started to pair up. The Go puzzles shifted, merging four by four.
On the fifth day of Gu Hai's Go game with Old Man Guanqi: Gu Hai's black Go stones crumbled.
"Hey? Your Go skills increased? "Old Man Guanqi suddenly exclaimed in shock.
"Boom! Boom!"
The eight Go puzzles on Xiao Chen's forehead suddenly merged into two large Go puzzles and quickly merged.
Although Gu Hai was on the verge of defeat, the increase in his Go Energy made his defeat less obvious and slower.
