"Boom-Boom …." Two more explosive sounds erupted from the top of his head. Suo Qiaoye did not see Ning Cheng being crushed into meat paste. He only saw a long spear flashing with lightning once again blocking the two mountain-like chess pieces. He had just realised that Ning Cheng had not used his full strength when a fist blasted towards him. Or rather, a fist filled with intense Axe Intent filled with murderous intent shot towards him.
Ning Cheng also felt somewhat helpless. His 36 Cosmic True Devil Axes had already been destroyed. Otherwise, with his current cultivation, he could have arranged an Angry Axe Array Formation.
Suo Qiaoye felt extremely shocked. His opponent's Domain was not any weaker than his, which already shocked him. But now, his opponent's Celestial Essence was not any weaker than his own. Not only did his opponent block the two chess pieces filled with Celestial Essence, but he also completely suppressed the Chess Rune Domain of his four chess pieces.
As the huge Axe Fist blasted out, the killing intent from the Axe Fist directly tore apart the surrounding space. Suo Qiaoye understood that his Domain was at a disadvantage. He no longer wanted to kill Ning Cheng as soon as possible and blasted out the chessboard in his hand.
"Clang ….." Ning Cheng's fist shadow slammed into the huge chessboard, giving off a metallic sound.
Suo Qiaoye flew back and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Ning Cheng secretly felt that Suo Qiaoye was still holding back at this moment. Otherwise, he would not have been able to block his punch in time. Ning Cheng knew that he could not go all out, and he also did not want to go all out.
Suo Qiaoye flew back while spitting out a mouthful of blood. In any case, he was clearly at a disadvantage. The entire Celestial Forest Arena's auditorium burst into screams. Clearly, everyone was excited to watch this fight.
"Very well, you are worthy of me going all out." Suo Qiaoye wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and the chessboard in his hand automatically flew up and flipped a few times over his head.
Not waiting for Ning Cheng to speak, the chessboard suddenly changed, and the complete chessboard suddenly poured down from the air like a sheet of mercury. This mercury quickly formed a distorted and irregular chessboard interface, and several chess pieces also fell onto the chessboard. These chess pieces quickly spread out in different positions.
At this moment, Ning Cheng felt that he was in the middle of a strange distorted Array Formation. Wrapped in this Array Formation, he only had a single thought in his mind, and that was to quickly get out of this place. Otherwise, he would become a chess piece and stay in this chessboard forever.
At this moment, within the Celestial Forest Arena's auditorium, Ning Cheng was not the only one brought into the Chessboard's Intent Field. It was just that Ning Cheng bore the brunt of it. Many of the spectators were affected by the mood of the chessboard, and they all felt a sense of crisis.
Shi Yulan felt even more anxious. She was a Celestial Gatherer Cultivator and was currently outside the Chess Realm. Therefore, she would not get sucked into this Chess Realm. Instead, she felt anxious for Ning Cheng.
Suo Qiaoye had already put away the four chess pieces that formed the Chess Domain. Normally, Wanderer should have been able to relax, but Wanderer ended up sucked into the Concept of Chess, unable to extricate himself.
If Ning Cheng were a bystander, he would have definitely activated his domain to bind Suo Qiaoye and then easily killed Suo Qiaoye. It's just that Ning Cheng was the one in the center of the game. Being sucked into this Concept of Chess, he only felt a deep sense of crisis. He just wanted to get out of it as soon as possible, but he did not know that he could fight back.
The six chess pieces moved faster and faster, and soon the entire battle ring was filled with the shadows of the chess pieces, as well as the shadows of the chessboard. Ning Cheng and Suo Qiaoye could no longer be seen.
The spectating cultivators knew that Suo Qiaoye had stimulated the Chess Realm to trap Wanderer. Wanderer was struggling, and the final outcome would depend on whether Wanderer could break free from this predicament or not.
Ning Cheng was indeed trapped, and he was completely trapped within this Chess Array. It felt like if he tried to get out from any corner, he would be squeezed into pieces by this Chess Array.
This was not just an Array Formation, but also a powerful killing intent from the chess pieces that was suppressing him, forcing him to yield and not try to resist.
When Ning Cheng still had a Qi Gathering Cultivation, he had already come into contact with Axe Intents and Spear Intents. After that, his Axe Intents grew increasingly complete. When he came out of the Angry Axe Valley, coupled with Cang Wei's help in refining the 36 Cosmic True Devil Axes, his Axe Intents had become completely self-contained, forming a complete attack system.
His Spear Intents also continued to improve, allowing him to have a much deeper understanding of Concepts compared to the average person.
At this time, Suo Qiaoye's Chess Intents were completely different from his Axe Intents and Spear Intents. However, it was mixed within the Circulation Array Formation, making it difficult for him to extricate himself.
This Circulation Array Formation was not an ordinary low-level Array Formation, but an Array Formation close to Celestial Grade. It was only because the Array Flags of this Array Formation could not cover the entire chessboard and could not be upgraded.
Immersed in this Chess Realm and Chess Array, Ning Cheng constantly tried to deduce his way out, constantly trying to figure out the positions of the chess pieces and the Circulation Array Formation. At this moment, only a powerful attack could wake him up. This kind of powerful attack could kill him in one go.
Suo Qiaoye could see Ning Cheng's current state, but unfortunately, he did not have the extra power to attack Ning Cheng. His mind was completely focused on his Chess Intent and the Circulation Array Formation. He wanted to trap Ning Cheng to death. However, Ning Cheng's Domain was too powerful, and he could not restrain Ning Cheng.
Suo Qiaoye knew very well that once Ning Cheng broke free from his Chess Intent, he would definitely die. Fighting until now, he felt very depressed in his heart. If his cultivation was at the Celestial Shatterer Realm, he would have already killed Ning Cheng. He did not know what kind of monster Ning Cheng was, but his Domain was so powerful that it caused him to tremble in fear.
Because of Suo Qiaoye's anxious state, he crazily stimulated his Chessboard and chess pieces.
Concepts did not grow stronger by relying on madness. It was something that could only be sensed. Suo Qiaoye's madness caused a crack to appear in his Chess Intent.
When Ning Cheng saw this crack, he immediately sobered up. He finally understood that he had fallen into the opponent's Chess Realm. He recalled the words that Shi Yulan had specifically told him before. It was rumoured that Suo Qiaoye's Chess Realm had reached an extremely profound level. So this was what she was referring to, and it turned out to be true. At this moment, Ning Cheng felt somewhat grateful towards Shi Yulan.
Because of Shi Yulan's reminder, he felt a little vigilant in his heart, which allowed him to quickly understand the opponent's Chess Realm.
The moment he saw through Suo Qiaoye's Chess Realm, Ning Cheng could break out and easily kill Suo Qiaoye. However, Ning Cheng still did not move. He continued to perfect his Array Formations and Concepts within this Chess Realm. During his fight with Suo Qiaoye, he did not use his full strength from the start.
Spear Intent, Axe Intent, Fist Intent, Chess Intent …
Everything in the universe, as long as one comprehended it to a certain level, could become a kind of Concept.
At this moment, Ning Cheng had comprehended the Axe Intent in the Angry Axe Valley and the Spear Intent through the Everlasting Blue Thunder City. Now that he was trapped in this Chess Intent, he suddenly sobered up.
His Spear Intent and Axe Intent, at this moment, completely linked up and reached a new realm, Clear Connection.
Ning Cheng had learned about Concepts in the True Cultivation World. His Spear Intent should have been at the Grand Accomplishment Realm before, but now that it had reached the Clear Connection Realm, it meant that his Spear Intent's killing power could be casually controlled, and killing power could be casually manipulated.
"Boom" Something seemed to open up in Ning Cheng's mind, and an even more powerful insight emerged in his mind. He raised his hand, and the Treasured Thunder Spear trapped outside the Chess Realm by Suo Qiaoye's Array Formation fell into his hand. Then, with a light flick of his hand, the Chess Intent Array that flowed like quicksilver instantly disintegrated.
The Treasured Thunder Spear in Ning Cheng's hand landed in between Suo Qiaoye's eyebrows, but he did not move.
At this moment, his mind no longer focused on Suo Qiaoye. His Array Formation directly broke through to Rank 9 and then split apart. He faced a whole new world, a whole new world.
That's right, at this moment, he had a glimpse of a Celestial Grade Array Formation and officially became a Grade 1 Celestial Array Master.
Cold sweat oozed from Suo Qiaoye's forehead. A moment ago, he had the upper hand, but now, he had become a lamb that could be slaughtered at will.
He did not dare to move. The Treasured Thunder Spear had completely locked onto him, while the other party's Domain controlled the surroundings. As long as he dared to move, the next moment, he would turn into a dead soul under the Treasured Thunder Spear.
"I admit defeat ….." Suo Qiaoye spat out those three words with some difficulty. He still felt a little glad that Ning Cheng did not kill him.
Bursts of thunder erupted from the spectator stands, and Shi Yulan's excited voice even overshadowed the shouts around her.
However, Ning Cheng still did not move. The long spear in his hand still pointed towards Suo Qiaoye's eyebrows, without any intention of retreating.
Suo Qiaoye's face turned ugly and even turned red. For him, this was an insult. The people from the Gale Arena also had ugly expressions. This was not only an insult to Suo Qiaoye, but also an insult to the Gale Arena.
The Gale Arena took the initiative to issue a challenge, yet Suo Qiaoye admitted defeat. Moreover, the other party's long spear was still pointed at Suo Qiaoye. If this was not an insult, then what was?
Only the Celestial Forest Arena's Arena Master and the many stewards smiled. The Celestial Forest Arena was destined to become famous throughout the Revolving Jade City in the future.
Ning Cheng truly did not hear Suo Qiaoye's words. After his Spear Intent and Array Formation suddenly linked up, his consciousness also became clear. At this moment, he suddenly understood his shortcomings. Although his understanding of Spear Intent and Axe Intent had reached a very high level, he still could not form an attack system.
His Celestial River Intent had also advanced to the purple level, yet he could only comprehend a single Void Flame Mark.
His Domain was much more powerful compared to ordinary cultivators' Domains. Moreover, he could not make good use of his Domain to form a killer move. Although his Array Formations had already reached the Celestial Grade, he still could not turn his Array Formations into an effective means against the enemy.
Even the Maximal Flame Spiritual Technique was not something that he had comprehended on his own, but something that Elder Brother Cang Wei had given to him.
At this moment, Ning Cheng felt extremely sober. If he could comprehend all the things that he had comprehended and form a complete set of means against the enemy, how could he have fought against Suo Qiaoye for such a long time? Or even forced into the opponent's Chess Domain?
After Ning Cheng understood his shortcomings, he suddenly gave a long roar. This roar penetrated the entire Celestial Forest Arena. He finally understood what he lacked. These ten days in the arena, he had not lived in vain.
Shi Yulan felt shocked in her heart. She unexpectedly felt a hint of familiarity from this long roar.
"I've already admitted defeat. What else do you want?" Suo Qiaoye finally turned angry.
Ning Cheng showed a slight smile and put away his Treasured Thunder Spear. It did not matter to him whether he could kill Suo Qiaoye or not, not to mention that he was in a good mood at this moment.
Seeing Ning Cheng put away his long spear, Suo Qiaoye felt slightly relieved and spoke up in a cold voice, "Although I lost, you also went all out. Next time, I will not give you this opportunity."
Ning Cheng glanced at Suo Qiaoye and spoke in a calm voice, "You're wrong. I didn't go all out."
