"Hmph …" The Black and White Chess Saint snorted. He raised his right hand and extended his index and middle fingers. The middle finger rested on the index finger, and a black light flashed. The void between the two fingers was torn apart, and a star flew out. The Black and White Chess Saint pinched the star and tapped it on the chessboard. With a boom, the Black and White Chess Saint said proudly, "So what if I say the word 'Dao'?"
"Heh heh …" Xiao Hua chuckled. He searched through his memories and tried to draw a white chess piece with his two fingers together. However, as soon as he thought about it, he suddenly realized that there was no immortal energy in his body. What immortal mark, immortal infant, and so on, he couldn't sense anything at all!
Xiao Hua was stunned. He knew that it was the power of the Black and White Chess Saint's sleeves. He looked at the Black and White Chess Saint in shock. He really did not know how strong the Black and White Chess Saint was! It seemed that the Black and White Chess Saint was much stronger than the one at Dongzun Mountain!
There were only chess players here, and no true immortals!
Xiao Hua finally understood the meaning of this sentence!
"You don't have to make your move …" The Black and White Chess Saint looked at Xiao Hua and said lightly, "You are not qualified to play chess with me. You might have a chess manual in your head, but … it's all rubbish that I learned. If the Black and White Paths could win with any set, layout, or robbery, would it still be called the Black and White Paths?"
"Yes, yes …" Xiao Huazi knew the difference between immortals and mortals. He nodded in agreement.
But the Black and White Chess Saint changed the topic. "Of course, you don't understand the Black and White Paths. Why don't you start from the Black and White Chess Saint? These sets, layouts, and so on have to be seen …"
Xiao Huayu was speechless. Was this an insult, belittling, or belittling?
But no matter what, the Black and White Chess Saint was qualified.
"The Black and White Chess Path is not an exception. It is also divided into nine ranks …" The Black and White Chess Saint said. "Before you start looking at the chess manual, you should understand. But the names of the nine ranks are quite elegant. They are Enigmatic, Meditative, Concrete, Ethereal, Use Intelligence, Small, Small, Fighting, Stupidity, and Defense. Someone once wrote a poem for the nine ranks. It's quite interesting … "
"When one enters the state of mind, one moves like intelligent water, and is as still as a benevolent mountain.
Meditating according to the rules of the deities, having a well-thought-out plan in mind, changing the verdict and understanding the changes, never deviating from the central point.
To restrain and subdue Mo Chengchen, attack the heart of the enemy, and subdue the enemy without fighting.
Seclusion Channeling probed and concealed, reaching far and hooking deep, invisible application. He had his own understanding.
Using wits to devise strategies and determine victory from a thousand miles away. Using power and form, it is formless and without body.
Small and exquisite borrowed the will of others to stop the momentum, occupied the land and searched for roots, and schemed against each other.
There was defense in the attack, and there was attack in the defense. Using the small to change the big, striking the West and East.
Ruo Yu waited at ease for the exhausted, retreated in order to advance, prudent and experienced, not starting a fight.
Defend your clumsiness and succeed in the overall situation, make up for it when you have time. Fortify the fence and stop the war for the sake of martial arts. "
(Excerpt from Gong Jiaxiang's "Lianyuan Ya Ji" in the Qing Dynasty)
As the Black and White Chess Saint chanted, countless black and white Taijis broke through the air around the Tianyuan Cliff. When the Taijis of various sizes covered the surrounding space, the black and white Taijis shattered. In the blink of an eye, a black and white world was born!
"Xiao Zhenren …" The Black and White Chess Saint's voice sounded like the sound of nature. "I will pass on to you the so-called Black and White Chess Dao Records. In front of your head, there are nine dangerous gates of armchair strategy, each guarded by nine immortal puppets. You will comprehend all the records, and I will comprehend them. Defeat them one by one, and you will be able to escape from this black and white world. If you can't escape in a hundred generations, I will still let you out. Of course, I will give the team real advice based on your battle results, and decide if you are suitable to lead the team! "
After he finished speaking, Xiao Hua saw a huge black sun burning with flames in the black and white sky above. It fell from the sky and smashed towards his forehead!
Wasn't this the star that the Black and White Chess Saint had pinched between his fingers?
The black sun fell to the ground with a ferocity that could destroy the world. However, Xiao Hua's expression was calm. He only narrowed his eyes and looked around, as if he wanted to remember all the details before the world was destroyed.
Buzz buzz buzz … The entire earth trembled. The black and white shattered, and everything collapsed. Xiao Hua felt as if his body was being torn into thousands of pieces!
Boom … Xiao Hua's vision darkened, and the entire world fell into darkness. In the darkness, chess records began to flash before Xiao Hua's eyes, and black and white chess pieces fell like stars.
The Black and White Chess Saint's voice sounded again, explaining the changes in the rules of the Black and White Chess Dao and the true essence of the game.
Xiao Hua knew that this was the Black and White Chess Saint's realization, so he did not dare to be negligent. He focused his attention on it.
At first, the black and white chess pieces flew, and together with the Black and White Chess Saint's understanding, Xiao Hua gradually understood the three meanings. After that, the Black and White Chess Saint's voice disappeared, and Xiao Hua's mind broke free from the black and white chess pieces. He could see the changes in the wind and clouds, and the momentum of the Central Plains. The momentum was about to be formed, and the Black and White Chess Dao changed again in Xiao Hua's eyes. Yin and Yang surged, and the starry sky shone brightly. He could not help but be amazed!
"Wrong …" Xiao Hua was about to smile when the Black and White Chess Saint's voice was like thunder. "You don't have to raise it to the Heavenly Way. Lower the level!"
"Phew …" Xiao Hua took a deep breath and cupped his hands in the air. "Thank you for enlightening me. I understand!"
"Sigh, wait for these immortals! They always want to approach the Great Way. This is something that can't be helped. Mortals comprehend the Way of Killing because they want to enter the Way through chess and ascend to the Celestial World. You are immortals, and today's comprehension … is neglecting the essentials. It's hard on you! "
Xiao Hua smiled and squinted his eyes for a moment. He looked at the darkness again. At this time, the darkness began to turn gray. Xiao Hua saw black and white chess pieces falling in front of him again. He could not help but feel a sense of sternness and an iron-bloodedness.
Xiao Hua completely extinguished his desire to cultivate. He paid attention to the changes in the Black and White Chess Dao and the control of the details. Gradually, the chess pieces disappeared from Xiao Hua's eyes. There were only murderous intents, charges, abandonment, fierce battles, humiliation, pride, and so on. The indescribable impulse gradually dissipated, giving him a desire to control the entire situation.
"Seeing chess is chess, seeing chess is not chess …"
The Black and White Chess Saint's voice sounded again at this critical moment. "Seeing chess knowledge … people, is the Way of the game!"
"Hiss …" Xiao Hua sucked in a breath of cold air. He instantly understood what the Black and White Chess Saint meant. He was shocked. "Seeing chess is chess. That's right. When Xiao first saw chess pieces falling, his eyes were full of victory and defeat. He saw only the details of the game. After that, Xiao saw that chess was not chess, but the situation. He had already raised his level and saw through the entire game. In the end, Xiao saw endless changes in the game. These changes corresponded to the world and were naturally filled with the principles of heaven and earth and the Way of the Great Way."
"… However, this Xiao has missed a level. The chess pieces are placed by two people, and the chess game is also the collision and battle of their chess skills. Only by seeing through the chess game can one know who the real person is through the chess game!"
