In the center of Qingqiu's Holy Capital, there was a tallest mountain. It was called Qingqiu Mountain. Providence was roaring in the sky, and it contained the Taichu Holy Court's Immortal Image.
On top of Qingqiu Mountain was where the Taichu Holy Court's Imperial Court was located. It was also where the Taichu Holy King lived.
In the Taichu Holy King's study.
The Taichu Holy King sat behind a white jade desk, and a group of officials stood in front of him. The leader was Mr. Fox, who went to the High Heaven with him that day.
The Taichu Holy King was reading a memorial. He suddenly said, "Mr. Fox, have you sent the emissary away?"
"He was sent away two days ago. Feng Xingyun from the Snake Queen's dojo came personally. This is no small matter!" Mr. Fox said with a frown.
"Feng Xingyun? I knew that something big was going to happen if the Snake Queen sent him here. Let's prepare for this. If the Kong family's disciples come to the Wind Tomb territory again, kill them without mercy! "The Taichu Holy King said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" The officials answered.
"Clap!"
The Taichu Holy King closed the memorial in his hand.
"This is the information on Zhong Shan that you compiled?" The Taichu Holy King asked Mr. Fox with the memorial in his hand.
"Yes, this Zhong Shan is not simple. Although his cultivation level is not high, his methods are amazing. When he was in the Small World, he was always victorious. Once or twice was luck, but he has never failed in the past few hundred years. This shows his intelligence, strategy, and methods!" Mr. Fox nodded with a frown.
"Holy King, this person is too strong. Will he …?" One of the officials asked with a frown.
"Who can become the Holy King is not strong?" Mr. Fox shook his head.
"Could it be that the Holy King wants to subdue this Zhong Shan?"
"As for Zhong Shan, I have my own plans," the Taichu Holy King said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Everyone nodded.
"Holy King, did you hand Zhong Shan over to Sima Zongheng to kill Zhong Shan's arrogance?" Mr. Fox asked.
"That's right. That day in the Daikon State, I could tell that this person is too proud and aloof. 231 Great Immortals descended, yet he faced them calmly in his arrogance. Since he has become my Taichu's hostage, he can't afford to be arrogant. Let Sima Zongheng kill his arrogance! "The Taichu Holy King said in a low voice.
"But Holy King, as far as I know, Zhong Shan was sent to the eighteenth level of hell by the Sima family when he arrived in Qingqiu yesterday," Mr. Fox said calmly.
"The eighteenth level of hell?" The Taichu Holy King said in a serious voice.
"Yes, let Sima Zongheng deal with it and let him vent his anger. However, it seems that he has gone a little overboard. Sima Zongheng has gone a little overboard, "Mr. Fox said in a low voice.
The Taichu Holy King was silent for a moment.
"Present the memorial to the Holy King!" Suddenly, a loud voice came from outside the study.
"Come in!" The Taichu Holy King said in confusion.
The officials also looked outside the door seriously. After all, no one should disturb him at this time unless it was something serious.
Soon, an official ran in and knelt down. "Holy King, millions of prisoners have escaped from Qingqiu's prison. A peerless demon is taking over the eighteenth level of hell. The army of Qingqiu has been dispatched to capture the prisoners."
"Ridiculous!" The Taichu Holy King said in a low voice.
"Holy King!" Everyone looked at the Taichu Holy King.
The Taichu Holy King stood up and walked out of the study with the others following closely behind.
The Taichu Holy King stood outside and looked in the direction of Qingqiu's prison in the distance.
In the distance, the dazzling light of the impact made that place look like a bright sun. Above the bright sun, black smoke filled the air. It was very chaotic.
A large number of powerhouses were also flying around Qingqiu to capture the criminals.
"Holy King, it's true. A demon has invaded and is taking over the eighteenth level of hell!" The official shouted after he came out.
"Shut up!" Mr. Fox shouted.
"Uh!" The official was confused.
"The eighteenth level of hell is connected to the Four Great Arrays. If they want to take it by force, they will be attacked by the Four Great Arrays. Even if they are taken away from the eighteenth level of hell, they will still be attacked by the Four Great Arrays. Now that the Four Great Arrays are not activated, the eighteenth level of hell is fine!" Mr. Fox said.
"Uh!"
"You said millions of prisoners have escaped?" Mr. Fox said in a low voice.
"Yes, we caught one. He said that all the prisoners have escaped. The eighteenth level of hell is empty now!" The official said immediately.
"Oh no, Zhong Shan is in the eighteenth level of hell. Holy King, this matter!" Another official's expression changed.
"Find him!" The Taichu Holy King said in a low voice.
"Yes!"
The millions of prisoners were in a riot. The entire Qingqiu's attention was focused on them. The prisoners escaped and the army chased after them. Zhong Shan, on the other hand, came out easily.
Zhong Shan did not choose to escape from the Holy Capital of Qingqiu. After all, he represented the Holy Court of Daikon State. He was a hostage. If he left, the Daikon State would be destroyed.
Of course, Zhong Shan knew that the Taichu Holy King guessed that he would not leave. He just did not know when he would be able to find him.
The Holy Capital of Qingqiu. Without a doubt, the highest peak in the center of Qingqiu was Mount Qingqiu. The Taichu's Palace.
Zhong Shan went straight to Mount Qingqiu. The most dangerous place was also the safest place. The easiest place to find was also the hardest place to find.
It did not take long for him to reach the foot of Qingqiu. There were many downtown areas at the foot of the mountain. Zhong Shan went directly into one of them.
Perhaps the Holy Capital of Qingqiu was too big. The chaos in the Qingqiu prison did not affect this place much.
The various buildings were very majestic and imposing.
Zhong Shan skilfully found interesting places while admiring the buildings of Qingqiu.
The Soul of Chess Competition at the Erqi Square!
Soul of Chess Competition?
Zhong Shan was slightly surprised. The Taichu Holy Court was in the mood for this? There was a Go competition? Was this for real?
Zhong Shan went straight to the Erqi Square with curiosity.
The Erqi Square was very big. There were about fifty to sixty thousand people gathered there. Most of them were dressed elegantly. They were here to participate in the Soul of Chess Competition.
Zhong Shan was bored while waiting for the Taichu Holy King to find him. It was not the time to cultivate. He was not in the mood to play.
Soul of Chess Competition?
Zhong Shan stepped into the Erqi Square. He was prepared to spend the next few days here.
In addition to the people who came to participate in the Soul of Chess Competition, there were also officials in charge of the competition.
In the center of the square, there were a hundred Go tables, which meant that two hundred people were playing. Many people crowded around them. However, there was something strange. Everyone was holding a strange little folding fan in their hands. Zhong Shan wanted to go over and take a look.
"Wait, is this your first time participating in the Soul of Chess Competition?" an official asked.
"Oh? Not bad, "Zhong Shan said.
"To participate in the Soul of Chess Competition, you must first solve ten Go puzzles. Only after solving the Go puzzles will you be qualified to enter the Soul of Chess Competition. Then, you must win a hundred consecutive victories before you can go to the Misty Sea Cloud Mountain to participate in the Soul of Chess Battle, "the official said.
A hundred consecutive victories? Zhong Shan was slightly surprised. A hundred consecutive victories was not a hundred victories, but a hundred consecutive victories without a single loss.
Zhong Shan did not pay much attention to the Soul of Chess Battle. After all, he was only here to pass the time.
"That's fine. How do I solve the Go puzzles?" Zhong Shan asked, feeling puzzled.
"This way, please!" That official was quite responsible.
Soon, Zhong Shan was led to the edge of the square. There were many tables there, and ten-odd officials were waiting in boredom.
"Hey, Old Third, there's a newcomer again? It has been ten years since a newcomer came, right? "an official said with a smile.
"The Soul of Chess Competition started a hundred years ago. Those who should be qualified have been here long ago. However, it is not bad to have a newcomer participate!" another official said with a smile.
"Alright, Old Sixth, as usual, pick ten Go puzzles!" the official accompanying Zhong Shan said.
"Alright!"
One of the officials quickly took out a small jade mountain with nearly two thousand square jade tablets. That official casually picked ten of them and put away the other jade tablets.
Then, he spread out the ten jade tablets. The jade tablets showed the black-and-white Go game diagrams. Many Go puzzles had been drawn, and they all seemed to be halfway through the game.
"You take the black stone. You go first. Tap on the board, and the board will automatically show your move!" the official said.
Zhong Shan nodded and walked forward.
Looking at the first Go puzzle, Zhong Shan faintly smiled and tapped the board with his finger. Immediately, a black stone appeared on the board. At the same time, a white stone appeared on the board. It was clear that the person who had left behind the Go puzzle had already made arrangements.
Although Zhong Shan cultivated the Path of the Emperor, he was no stranger to the Go game. The Go game focused on the layout, and Zhong Shan was a madman of layout. Mastering one move meant mastering all moves. Although his Go skills in the Daikon State were not as good as Nangong Sheng's, it was not easy to find a few people in the Daikon State who could beat Zhong Shan.
Zhong Shan continued to play.
"Old Third, is this person playing Go? So fast? He can't be messing around, right? "An official showed a strange expression when he saw Zhong Shan play.
"Boom!"
At this moment, green smoke suddenly rose from Zhong Shan's Go board.
"He solved it?"
"So fast?"
"Is this for real?"
The group of officials was filled with astonishment.
Zhong Shan ignored them and started to solve the second Go puzzle.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! …
A series of cracking sounds rang out. A look of surprise appeared on the faces of all the officials.
"An expert!"
When Zhong Shan solved the last Go puzzle, the officials could not help but think that he was an expert.
"This is your folding tile! With the folding tile, you can participate in the Soul Chess Competition! "The person called Old Third immediately handed over something that looked like a folding fan.
Zhong Shan grabbed the folding fan and opened it. It really did look like a folding fan. However, this was clearly a magic treasure. The word "zero" was written on the folding fan.
"Before you start playing, place the folded tiles in the groove of the chess table. When you win a game, it will record it. Every time you win a game, it will add a number. However, if you lose, it will all be reset to zero!" The person called Old Three said.
"Many thanks!"
Zhong Shan nodded and walked to the competition table.
A hundred chess tables were surrounded by a large number of chess players. Not only were the chess players waiting to play, but they were also watching the game. Watching could help improve one's Go skills and increase one's cultivation level.
Of the one hundred Go tables, one of them had the most people watching. Just as Zhong Shan walked to the table, a loud shout came from there.
"Sima Qianjun, ninety-nine consecutive wins!"
