Hearing the echo of this ethereal voice, Lin Bai had already guessed that this person should be the national master!
"Tao follows heaven, heaven follows earth, earth follows man, man can conquer heaven!" Lin Bai muttered these words softly, and a smile slowly appeared on his lips: "Aspirational realm is already the pinnacle realm on the ancient continent. Here,
Aspirational realm cultivation is equivalent to being a god in this world, possessing earth-shaking power!"
"But after all, this is just the ancient continent!"
"Besides the Mangu Continent, there are other small worlds, and there are spiritual worlds that are more powerful than these small worlds!"
"Senior, are you trying to tell me not to be complacent about the present and waste your cultivation?"
Lin Bai asked with a chuckle.
"Haha, you are really talented!" The national master chuckled: "Many people once came to Sa Xing Palace, and you are almost exactly the same as what they saw, but more people told me that they would work hard to practice.
, I have reached a higher peak, stepped out of ancient times, and seen a more magnificent world!"
"But many people say one thing and do another. What they say here is very nice, but after leaving Saxing Palace, these people are all immersed in the singing and dancing of the divine capital, and the boundless power disputes in the divine capital.
Among them!"
"In the past five hundred years, I have seen too many geniuses. They were qualified to break through the Tao realm and move towards a more magnificent world, but they were trapped by the gods!"
"Dragon Lord, Phoenix Lord, Iron Sword Marquis, Tutor Bai Ye, all without exception!"
"They are all qualified to enter the Tao realm!"
"The Marquis of Iron Sword was an official, and he gave up his cultivation and entered the battlefield. Although he achieved great military exploits, his original intention was blinded by his position of power!"
"The Dragon Lord and the Phoenix Lord are obsessed with the three-thirds of the Dragon Court and the Phoenix Pavilion. It's hard to get out of the way and unable to move forward!"
"Tai Tuo Bai Ye only seeks fame and fortune, not progress. Now he just wants to support the prince to succeed to the throne in the name of the emperor's master!"
"A detailed list of the Taoist realms born in the Mangu Continent, excluding those in the Tomb of the Gods who were born by unnatural luck, only those who achieved the Taoist realm by their own efforts in the Mangu Continent, can be traced back thousands of years!"
"It's been a thousand years, it's been a thousand years, the Dao realm has not been born in the ancient continent for thousands of years!"
The Imperial Master's words seemed a bit sad and sighing.
Lin Bai frowned and said: "When I was in Nanzhou, I met the Taoist masters on the ancient continent!"
The Taoist master that Lin Bai spoke of was Old Man Guzhou.
When Lin Bai's soldiers attacked the Poison God's family, in order to prevent Lin Bai and the Poison God's family from being destroyed, Old Man Guzhou dared to come to persuade him and save all life in Nanzhou from being destroyed!
"Is it a lonely boat?" the Imperial Master chuckled.
Lin Bai nodded slightly.
The national master chuckled and said: "He is the one who relied on his own cultivation efforts to break through the Tao realm thousands of years ago!"
Huh! Lin Bai's eyes flashed, and he was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that this old man in Guzhou was actually a strong man who had lived for a thousand years!
When Lin Bai was talking to the Imperial Master, the stars in front of him dispersed, making way for Lin Bai.
At this time, a white deer with white light walked up to Lin Bai spiritually, seeming to be leading the way for Lin Bai.
Lin Bai followed Bai Lu and walked forward. Not long after he walked forward, he saw an old man sitting cross-legged in the darkness with a chessboard in front of him.
The white deer led Lin Bai to this point and lay down behind the old man.
The starry sky dispersed, and Lin Bai's vision returned to the main hall.
In the main hall, lights all around appeared out of thin air, illuminating the surrounding area.
"Master Imperial Master!" Lin Bai walked up to the Imperial Master, cupped his fists and saluted.
"Sit down!" the Imperial Master smiled.
Lin Bai sat opposite the Imperial Master, saying nothing, looking at the chessboard in front of him, on which there were black and white pieces, and they were fighting in full swing.
However, Lin Bai had been learning chess for a long time. Although he knew a little bit about playing chess, it was difficult for him to get on the stage after all!
The Imperial Master twisted a chess piece and looked at the chessboard with a frown. He tried several times, but he didn't seem to have made up his mind where to place the chess piece!
"Where do you think the best place to place this chess piece is?" the national master asked after pondering for a long time.
"This junior doesn't know how to play chess." Lin Bai smiled bitterly.
"It doesn't matter, I'll leave this chess piece to you, you can play it wherever you want!" The national master handed the black chess piece in his hand to Lin Bai.
Lin Bai caught the chess piece and looked at the chessboard.
The black and white pieces on the chessboard are competing fiercely, but there is no distinction between advantages and disadvantages. They are obviously evenly matched. If one piece goes wrong, the whole game is likely to be lost!
Lin Bai looked at the chessboard for a long time, and then at the black chess piece in his hand for a long time. Finally, with a flash of his eyes, he seemed to have made a decision and placed the chess piece in an empty space in the upper left corner of the chessboard!
"Just here!" Lin Bai said with a bitter smile: "I don't know how to play chess, so this chess piece is placed randomly. Please forgive me, Master!"
The Imperial Master said nothing, looking at Lin Bai's fallen chess pieces, and after a long time he said: "The center of the chessboard is where the most intense battle between black and white chess pieces occurs. There are still three free spaces in it. If you fall on any
You can achieve great victory in any place, but why did you choose to end up in such a place?"
"Indeed, if you land on these three vacant places, you can win a complete victory, but you can't kill White!" Lin Bai said with a mysterious smile.
The Imperial Master suddenly raised his eyes, and his weathered old face glanced at Lin Bai meaningfully, and a bright smile gradually appeared on his face: "Indeed, you can't kill him!"
Then, the national master picked up the chess pieces and placed them on the chessboard according to his heart.
Lin Bai sat aside and watched the national master playing chess with him.
According to what the master just said, he placed the black piece on the three vacancies in the center of the chessboard, causing the white piece to run away with its head in its arms. However, the vitality of the white piece was extremely amazing. Even though the black pieces were chasing him all over the board, the white piece always maintained a trace of strength.
vitality.
Finally, after several rounds, White's pieces were put to death and he resurrected. The battle situation reversed, switching from defense to offense, killing Black's pieces without leaving a trace.
Just when Heizi was about to be defeated, the Heizi that Lin Bai had just placed in the upper left corner gave him a glimmer of hope.
Black took the opportunity to gain momentum and fought with White, inseparable.
In the end, after a hard fight, Heizi narrowly defeated Banzi!
"Hahaha, you said you don't know how to play chess, but the black stone in the upper left corner of yours is the key to reversing the chessboard!" After the victory, the national master burst out laughing. He waved his sleeves, and the rest of the chessboard was turned around.
All the chess pieces turned into ashes and dispersed, except for the chess piece that Lin Bai put down, remaining on the chessboard!
After a hearty smile, the Imperial Master looked at Lin Bai with deep eyes: "Lin Bai, you are extremely talented and have the opportunity to enter the Tao realm, so I hope you will not be delayed in your practice by trivial matters in the world!"
"Lin Bai will keep the teachings of the Imperial Master in mind!" Lin Bai said gratefully.
The Imperial Master looked at the black pieces on the chessboard and chuckled: "I know why you came to supervise Tiansi. The chess piece you put down with your own hands is the answer you want to know!"
Lin Bai's eyes narrowed and he looked at the black stones on the chessboard. He seemed to feel that the master knew his identity!
