The Emperor Sword Mountain was originally an extrely peaceful place, but to test the disciples, Yun Wumian captured so outsiders and threw them onto the Emperor Sword Mountain as "roadblocks." Finding the Spirit Clan was not difficult, but finding exactly one hundred Spirit Clan mbers at the True Immortal Realm Fifth Level was slightly ti-consuming, so he directly captured a Spirit Clan tribe.
Using his Immortal Country Domain, he suppressed them to the True Immortal Realm Fifth Level, making things much simpler.
At this mont, the elder of the Spirit Clan, who was at the Seventh Level of the Immortal Monarch Realm, was actually sitting across a table from a young disciple of Sword Abyss, which surprised him.
anwhile, Gu Yan had already stepped into the Emperor Sword Mountain.
After entering, he did not stop and flew straight towards the central area according to the guidance in his heart.
As he approached the center area, he saw spirits soaring from the lush forest, all standing with overwhelming montum, coldly staring at him.
Gu Yan remained expressionless and slowly drew his Heavenly Institute disciple’s sword from the void.
Bang!
With a crisp sound, a black piece fell sharply on the chessboard.
"Capture!"
Li Hao said softly.
This move, taking the Spirit Clan elder by surprise, broke open their great formation and bit off a breach.
If the opponent wanted to fill it, they would need an extra move, but he would not give the opponent such an opportunity.
"Hmm?"
The Spirit Clan elder raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Li Hao, then frowned and continued to place his pieces.
As they continued to place pieces, Li Hao’s offensive gradually penetrated deeply into the opponent’s formation, seeking to completely dismantle the opponent’s array.
"The younger generation is indeed formidable..."
The Spirit Clan elder sighed softly.
Li Hao smiled, raised his hand, and lowered a piece.
Spurt!
Blood erupted as Gu Yan, holding his sword, headed towards the teleportation array in the central area.
Behind him were nearly a hundred Spirit Clan figures, all severely injured, fallen in all directions, so with torn robes, so with broken limbs.
Yet, Gu Yan’s clothes were only slightly soiled.
Once he stepped into the teleportation array, this second layer had 50 Demon Race mbers at the True Immortal Realm Sixth Level!
The Demon Race is a general term, encompassing many species, such as Bull Demons, Dragon Demons, and Cat Demons, etc.
The abilities of the Demon Race vary greatly, being trapped among nurous demons, tests the ability to respond comprehensively even more.
At this ti, there were not many disciples on the second layer, so each person had even more demons to deal with.
Gu Yan did not choose a circuitous shortcut but continued to advance towards the central area with his sword.
Pop!
The black piece attacked the formation’s weak point, occupying the main force of the formation, leaving the Spirit Clan elder holding the white pieces with little hope of recovery.
But the Spirit Clan elder seed unwilling to give up, continuing to press step by step with the white pieces.
Next to him, a middle-aged Spirit Clan man watched this scene with his arms crossed, only shaking his head slightly with a sigh.
As the battle on the chessboard beca more intense, Li Hao’s pace of placing pieces also slowed, but the advantage he had accumulated earlier finally allowed him to break the opponent’s formation.
As a piece fell to solidify the situation, Li Hao also let out a light breath.
The Spirit Clan elder also withdrew his gaze from the chessboard, looked at Li Hao, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"It’s rare to see such chess ability at your age."
The Spirit Clan elder praised.
Li Hao replied humbly: "Not at all, your skill is profound and unattainably high."
The Spirit Clan elder smiled lightly and did not decline: "In the end, I have lived too long, and so things, even if you don’t want to understand, you inevitably learn sothing."
As he spoke, his gaze fell again to the chessboard, "Now, it’s my turn to play, right?"
Li Hao nodded.
The Spirit Clan elder picked up a black piece from the chess box, hovered it between his fingers briefly, and then suddenly placed it elsewhere on the board.
Bang!
A crisp sound, a strong impact, caused Gu Yan’s body to fly backward.
At this ti, he was already standing on the third layer of Emperor Sword Mountain.
Here were 20 Demon Race mbers at the True Immortal Realm Seventh Level, with as many as twelve surrounding him.
These demons clearly were not real True Immortal Realm Seventh Level beings, but had their cultivation suppressed to this realm, making them even more terrifying than usual.
"Sword Abyss monster? Hmph, although I can’t kill you, destroying your Dao Heart is also a form of revenge; our clan is not a tool to be used by the Human Race at will!"
One of the Demon Race said, behind whom, the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation was actually a giant purple python, its scales appearing as if forged from lava, exuding imnse majesty.
"Suppress him!"
The other demons growled lowly.
Unlike the Spirit Clan who were easygoing, being brought here for no reason, they could only vent on these disciples.
As the immortal power of nurous Demon Race mbers surged, displaying a powerful aura, Gu Yan’s expression also beca solemn. He wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, and in the depths of his eyes, a sword-like black fla seed to ignite.
Sword Dao origin, slash!
A pitch-black Sword Qi suddenly slashed out, containing the Third Layer of Sword Dao origin, instantly splitting apart the first demon that charged forward, tearing its massive body asunder.
The young man, holding the sword edge, like an awakened Black Jiao, swiftly lunged forward, killing rapidly.
"Hmm?"
Li Hao’s expression changed upon seeing the Spirit Clan elder’s move.
The position of that piece...
"A formidable young man, but ultimately inexperienced..."
The Spirit Clan elder chuckled. Although Li Hao had broken the previous formation, now, with this single piece, he reversed the situation, forming a counter-encirclent!
A ga within a ga.
Li Hao now understood, the opponent’s every move was actually skillfully setting up another ga of chess, and now, the sharp blade he thrust into the opponent’s formation was instead trapped within.
The blade tip had no room to maneuver, becoming a dead ga.
However, luckily, the hilt of his blade remained outside, allowing him to continue to maneuver.
