?
Qi Chengze looked bewildered.
To crack this "Heavenly Yuan Chess," one needs to maintain calmness under pressure and have a great sense of the bigger picture. It’s a severe test of character, root bone, and intellect.
Although Chen Mo is sharp-minded, his chess skills are indeed lacking, almost at the same level as Ling Yishan, who is bad at chess.
Predicting that he could break the game in about fifty moves is already generously overestimating him.
Yet, he managed it in just three moves!
And the method of breaking the game was actually to pierce the chessboard?!
"Old man, no wonder you wanted to bet with me, were you waiting for me here? Did you already get the heads-up from him?" Qi Chengze came to his senses, looking a bit upset, feeling he had been set up.
Ling Yishan was also a bit baffled, shaking his head and saying, "Do you think I can foresee the future? Besides, you set up this chess game, who would’ve thought it was so fragile?"
Ling Yishan was so sure that Chen Mo could come out within ten moves partly because he trusted the kid’s talent, and partly because he was bluffing.
His lifespan was already limited, and no matter how precious a magical treasure was, it was just an external thing to him.
Ling Ningzhi’s cultivation technique was different from his, so keeping the Heavenly Mechanism Lock would be of no use, it was better to gamble for a chance.
If he lost, he lost, since Qi Chengze was one of his own, receiving the treasure would be a favor owed, but if he won, it would add another layer of protection for the two.
At that time, with the blessing of Heavenly Vision, they could predict the enemy’s actions and avoid being schemed against, making the future path much smoother.
"It wasn’t you?"
Qi Chengze calmed down, his brow furrowed.
With years of acquaintance, they naturally understood each other’s character and wouldn’t resort to such underhanded methods.
"I was so focused on betting with Ling Yishan that I didn’t pay attention to the chess game..."
"How exactly did this kid do it?"
He focused his gaze on the table, the Heavenly Eye at his brow opened, emitting silver light, and broken wooden boards rose into the air, reassembling into a complete chessboard as if in reverse.
Soon after, the scene that had occurred before began to replay.
In the third move, Chen Mo did nothing but stood silently in the corner, letting the white pieces take shape.
Until that giant dragon came alive, baring its fierce fangs and diving in to bite, he suddenly took action.
Under some unknown force, his body swelled almost as big as the giant dragon, grabbing its sharp teeth with one hand, gripping its horns with the other, rooting his feet to the ground, twisting his body and hips, and forcibly tossing the dragon, crashing it onto the chessboard!
He wasn’t finished yet, swinging his arms in wide circles like kneading dough, slamming it back and forth!
Boom boom boom——
The chessboard trembled, swaying unstable.
The body of the dragon was covered in cracks, emitting sharp wails, finally shattered and scattered into flying pieces.
Then Chen Mo tore off one of the dragon’s horns, raised it high, and struck fiercely at the chasm beneath his feet, the powerful strike gradually expanded the cracks.
In no time, the chessboard was shattered into several pieces...
