His mind buzzed as soon as he saw it. The words "Heaven and Earth" on the chessboard were like a whirlpool, pulling all his thoughts into it.
However, he was not an amateur when it came to chess. He immediately took a deep breath and steadied his mind.
At that moment, what he saw was different from the others. He was no longer looking at the world on the chessboard. Instead, he was looking at the chessboard as if it was being magnified infinitely, magnifying the entire world. In the end, the chessboard really encompassed Heaven and Earth.
The world was so big that as a chess player, he did not know where to start.
It felt like an ordinary person suddenly taking over a country, not knowing how to run it.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Waves of boundless Daoist Rhymes attacked him, almost drowning him, forcing him to give up.
Was this the general trend of Heaven and Earth?
If one used Heaven and Earth as a chess piece, one would be attacked by the boundless general trend of Heaven and Earth.
If one's Daoist Rhymes were insufficient, one would instantly vanish into thin air!
Tianyan Daoist's heart was filled with fear and excitement. His eyes were fixed on the chessboard as if he was looking for a place to start.
'This is an opportunity given to me by the expert. To me, this is the greatest opportunity in the world. I must take advantage of it!'
Finally, his gaze settled and he placed the piece in the center of the chessboard!
Clack!
As the word "White" was placed, the chessboard seemed to shine with a halo.
Li Nianfan looked at Tianyan Daoist and could not help but smile.
Judging from the way he held the piece and played it, Tianyan Daoist was indeed proficient in chess. His moves were steady and experienced, unlike the previous players who seemed to be unable to hold the piece steadily and did not know where to start.
However, judging from the way he played, it was too radical. Perhaps it was because it was his first time playing chess with Ye Lingchen and he was too excited.
Li Nianfan smiled slightly, holding a black piece in his hand and placing it down with a clack.
It landed on the star position in the upper left corner!
Tianyan Daoist's pupils contracted slightly. His heart was pounding, undulating as if he could see the general trend of Heaven and Earth changing. He had an illusion that he had become a chess player playing chess with the expert, stirring up the general trend of Heaven and Earth!
This kind of feeling almost made him float up.
"Da da da"
Li Nianfan and Tianyan Daoist continued to place their pieces. The sound they made was very clear in the courtyard.
Lin Mufeng and Sun Qianshan were quietly watching from the side.
They looked at the Tianyan Daoist with envy in their eyes.
As spectators, they could clearly feel the changes in Tianyan Daoist's aura. Daoist Rhymes were constantly circulating around his body, and his aura was becoming more and more ethereal. This was simply a baptism of Daoist Rhymes. Such an opportunity was simply too great!
Even an idiot would know that the expert was giving advice to the Tianyan Daoist!
In fact, Li Nianfan was indeed giving him advice.
From the start of the game, Li Nianfan discovered that Tianyan Daoist's chess skills could only be considered as entry-level. Perhaps he was at the level of Daji.
If he did not give in, it would not take long for him to defeat him. However, deep in his heart, he was reluctant to do so.
Although Tianyan Daoist's chess skills were almost the same as Daji's, Daji relied on the chess game that he gave her to improve. Her flexibility was still too low. Tianyan Daoist was different. He really knew how to play chess, and he grew very quickly.
Therefore, Li Nianfan would often make a few mistakes on purpose so that Tianyan Daoist could find a way out of a hopeless situation. He did not disappoint Li Nianfan. He grew very quickly, and Li Nianfan was slightly satisfied.
After half an hour, Tianyan Daoist placed a white piece in his hand. He sighed softly and said, "Young Master Li, I've lost."
"Victory and defeat are common in chess. It's just a game of chess. Enjoy to your heart's content," Li Nianfan said with a smile.
An expert was indeed an expert. He used the world as a chess game just to liven things up.
Tianyan Daoist stood up and said respectfully to Li Nianfan, "Young Master Li, thank you for your guidance. I have benefited a lot. In the future, I am willing to treat Young Master Li as a disciple!"
"No, absolutely not!"
Li Nianfan quickly stood up and blocked Tianyan Daoist. He smiled bitterly and said, "You are a cultivator. Playing chess is just a side hobby. How can I accept you as a disciple?"
This old man was really addicted to chess. It was just a game of chess, and he actually wanted to worship him as a master.
Although it would feel good to accept a cultivator as a disciple, the other party was a cultivator after all. Moreover, he had lived for who knows how many years. Li Nianfan really did not know how to accept him.
He remembered that in the novels from his previous life, many peerless experts would often be impressed by a certain aspect of the main character. Then, they would follow the main character and work for him. Although it seemed good, when it really happened to him, he felt a little guilty.
Tianyan Daoist's eyes flashed with a hint of sadness. Sigh, the expert did not think highly of his understanding.
That's right. What right did he have to be the expert's disciple?
He was a little nervous. He asked expectantly, "Then, then can I come and play chess with Young Master Li in the future?"
Li Nianfan laughed and said casually, "Of course you can. I was just worried about not being able to find an opponent."
"Thank you." Tianyan Daoist's face was suddenly filled with excitement. However, he was a little embarrassed and said, "It's just that my chess skills are low. I need Young Master Li to give me a lot of leeway …"
"No worries. Chess skills are not something that can be learned overnight." Li Nianfan waved his hand. Suddenly, he said, "Speaking of which, I remember there's a story about chess."
"If I may ask, what's the story about Young Master Li?" Tianyan Daoist looked like he was all ears.
Lin Mufeng and Sun Qianshan also perked up their ears. They were looking forward to it.
Anything that the expert said would definitely be out of the ordinary.
Li Nianfan looked at their serious faces and could only continue, "There was once a person. Although he was just an ordinary person, he did not want his fate to be controlled by others. He went deep into the mountains alone and found the sky to play chess. In the end, he placed his life on the chessboard as the last chess piece!"
The original story was very long. He was too lazy to explain it. He only gave a general idea.
However, even so, it still made Lin Mufeng and the other two's scalps go numb. A layer of goosebumps appeared on their bodies!
Although Li Nianfan said that he was telling a story, unless they were idiots, they would definitely not think of it as a story!
Could it be, like Journey to the West, this was the expert's own story? Or was it something that the expert had seen before?
He did not want his fate to be controlled by others. Did it not mean that he did not want to be a chess piece?
He found the sky and played chess with it. He did not hesitate to put his life on the line. This was turning from a chess piece to a chess player. What kind of courage did he have?
Most importantly, the opponent was just an ordinary person!
What kind of world-shaking figure was this? It was simply too inconceivable!
"What happened in the end?" Tianyan Daoist could not help but stand up. His eyes were fixed on Li Nianfan. Due to his nervousness, his voice was trembling.
