Chapter 262: Chapter 228: A Game Spanning a Millennium_1

Dugu Yuqing and others had returned.

Li Fan glanced over and immediately offered a slight smile.

Not a single one of them was injured!

He felt relieved.

As Dugu Yuqing and the rest just stepped into the small courtyard,

“Boom!”

Dugu Yuqing’s body roared with myriad Dao, and countless Great Dao were replenished!

Qing Chen’s presence became even more ethereal!

A flash of black and white light seemed to pass through Jiang Li’s eyes.

Atop Long Zixuan’s body shone a splendid golden light, as if dragon shadows were roaring!

The grass belonging to Lu Rang swayed gently, as if receiving some mysterious baptism!

Witnessing this scene, Nanfeng Ziling and others were shocked.

“Immortal… Have Junior Brother Yuqing and the others become Immortal??”

Nanfeng exclaimed in surprise!

“Such a powerful aura… Five immortals, our junior brothers have truly become stronger.”

Zi Ling was also filled with joy.

“Demon Monarch, look at that grass…”

Gong Ya pointed at the plant belonging to Lu Rang, her expression extremely astonished!

“Even a single blade of grass can become Immortal…”

Xinning’s large eyes were also full of surprise.

“Woof!”

But at this moment, a dark shadow shot out suddenly, directly aiming to bite Wu Dade’s behind!

“Ah… Dead Dog!”

Wu Dade screamed, immediately tussling with the Black Dog!

Seeing this, everyone couldn’t help but suppress their laughs!

“As long as you’re back, everything is fine!”

Li Fan smiled and said, “How did it go, what did you gain from the scuffle this time?”

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yuqing stepped forward and said:

“Reporting to Master, we won a great victory!”

“We win decisively!”

Li Fan couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.

“Junior Brother, what exactly happened?”

Nanfeng communicated privately with Long Zixuan.

“Reporting to Senior Sister, the armies of the Three Great Heavenly Realms, numbering in the tens of millions, have been annihilated, and all three forbidden zones have been razed.”

Long Zixuan responded succinctly!

Upon hearing this, Nanfeng and the others were incredibly astonished!

Directly leveling the Three Great Heavenly Realms… and the forbidden zones?

Too terrifying!

“By the way, Master, we found three Stone Commands!”

Dugu Yuqing took out the Stone Commands of the Three Great Heavenly Realms.

Seeing this, Li Fan’s eyes instantly lit up.

Excellent.

With this, he could unlock three more butterflies.

He was now able to obtain five more butterflies.

Once Yun Xi returned, he would be able to report back, tired of the days filled with worry and suspense; Li Fan considered himself done with them.

“Very good!”

Li Fan voiced his approval.

Dugu Yuqing and the others were extremely happy, having been able to finally do something for their Master after so long.

“By the way, Master, we encountered Black White on the road, who wishes to meet you!”

At that time, Jiang Li stepped forward to speak.

Black White.

Those two words alone caused Nanfeng, Xinning, and the others present to be taken aback.

Black White??

The person represented by those two words…

Could only be one person!

The King of Black and White!

“The King of Black and White? Wasn’t he supposed to have faded away with time?”

“How could…”

They were all puzzled.

Dugu Yuqing then privately relayed the events that occurred in the Three Great Heavenly Realms, in a concise manner.

Upon hearing this, Xinning and others were even more astonished.

“Worthy of being the legendary King of Black and White, even a piece of his skin proves capable of overpowering five kings!”

Nanfeng looked shocked.

“A powerful being born in the wrong era… On the Immortal Path, there actually exists the Saint Path…”

Zi Ling murmured to herself; her view of Li Fan had completely changed.

She had initially thought that the Master might be an Immortal King or similar, possibly on par with the legendary Black and White Heavenly King.

But to think… even the Black and White Heavenly King wished to pay homage to the Master?

Master must be a figure from the Sacred Dao Domain.

Only now did she realize that she had still underestimated the realm of her Master!

“Heavenly Demon King Heibai… a Demon King renowned through ancient and modern times…”

Gong Ya murmured to herself.

Xinning, too, had eyes filled with shock, her gaze toward Li Fan brimming with incredulity.

“Big Brother is really so powerful… Could he be a predecessor who survived from the ancient age?”

She speculated!

Li Fan, however, wore a face of confusion.

“Black White? Who is he??”

He had never heard of him.

Dugu Yuqing and the others paused for a moment.

Master doesn’t know of the King of Black and White??

“Of course, how could someone like Master know the name of a mere junior?”

Jiang Li found this to be understandable and explained:

“Reporting to Master, Black White is a senior who loves the path of chess and holds Master’s chess skills in the highest regard!”

Upon hearing this, Li Fan immediately understood.

So it’s a chess enthusiast!

“Please invite him in.”

Li Fan smiled.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li was overjoyed!

He immediately turned around and exited the courtyard, looked at the solemnly waiting Black and White Heavenly King, and said:

“Senior, my Master has granted you permission to enter!”

The Black and White Heavenly King’s body trembled slightly with excitement and anticipation as he stepped over the threshold and into the courtyard.

As soon as the Black and White Heavenly King entered the courtyard, his whole body stiffened.

Heaven!

What kind of aura was this!?

The roaring of myriad Dao, the unmatched Saint Path!

This terrifying Dao principle!

This supreme Dao charm!

This unique aura!

“Is this the true Sacred Dao? Is this really the true Sacred Dao?”

At that moment, he trembled, overcome with excitement!

And when his gaze swept across the courtyard scene,

A peach tree…

A flock of chickens…

A school of koi…

A spider…

Hiss!

He drew in a cold breath, as if he had witnessed an unparalleled terror!

“Is this place the ultimate forbidden land??”

“What kind of being could nurture creatures from within the Saint Path…”

He murmured to himself, his eyes filled with immense fear!

“Master, this is Senior Black and White!”

At that moment, Jiang Li introduced Black and White Heavenly King to Li Fan.

The Black and White Heavenly King also looked over, his gaze landing on Li Fan.

“Like an abyss so deep it is immeasurable, like an ocean so vast it is boundless… Appears ordinary, yet stands transcendently supreme!”

“Even the beings of the Saint Path, I’m afraid, might not possess such demeanor…”

He shuddered deeply, understanding.

This person must be the master here.

A… ancient existence so venerable that it defies imagination!

Absolutely standing at the heart of the Saint Path!

He stepped forward, bowed deeply, and said respectfully,

“Black White pays respects to the senior!”

Black White pays respects to the senior!

Seeing the respect shown by the Black and White Heavenly King, Xinning and others were utterly astounded.

Oh my God…

The master is truly terrifying.

Even the Black and White Heavenly King was so respectful??

Li Fan, however, smiled and said,

“You flatter me, elder.”

“I heard from Jiang Li that you are fond of the path of chess?”

Black White said earnestly,

“In front of senior, I dare not speak of the path of chess!”

Dare not speak!

Jiang Li and the others wore complex expressions. The chess skills of the Black and White Heavenly King were undoubtedly peerless in the Immortal Domain.

But faced with Li Fan, all he had to offer was ‘dare not speak’…

“No need for modesty, since you’re here, let’s have a game,”

Li Fan smiled.

If the other party sought him out, it must surely be for a game of chess.

After all, those who love chess all have this addiction!

The Black and White Heavenly King’s expression trembled upon hearing this, could he really have the opportunity to receive guidance from this senior??

This is a supreme opportunity!

“Thank you, senior!”

He said, excited and earnestly!

“Set up the board.”

Li Fan gestured with his hand.

Jiang Li immediately took out the dusty chessboard.

Seeing the chessboard, the Black and White King’s eyes suddenly showed a hint of shock.

“This… why does this board harbor my current Dao?”

“And moreover, the path of chess contained within is even more harmonious, clearly only a step away from entering a higher realm…”

He murmured!

Could it be that his future self had some intersection with the senior before him?

If so, this senior is unfathomably profound!

He became even more respectful.

Li Fan, however, simply smiled lightly and instructed,

“Gong Ya, pour the tea!”

Gong Ya immediately stepped forward respectfully to pour the tea.

Her heart was filled with reverence—she was serving tea in a match against a Tianmo King!

“After your long journey, please enjoy some tea first.”

Li Fan picked up the tea, drank it calmly.

The Black and White Heavenly King also respectfully lifted his teacup upon hearing this.

The fragrance of the tea entered his mouth.

“…This!”

He looked at the cup of tea in shock. Just the fragrance of the tea alone, and he had actually sensed an aura of the Holy Path??

Could it be that this cup of tea… was the Source of the Holy Path?

How could this be?

No wonder, no wonder the disciples of this senior, each had such a rich Holy Path Aura…

Do they consume things of the Holy Path daily???

He trembled, overwhelmed with excitement. Was this cup of tea the supreme opportunity granted to him by the senior?

His heart was full of respect for Li Fan at this moment!

He drank the tea solemnly!

At that moment, he clearly felt an ethereal and transcendent Holy Path Aura, permeating his entire body!

The Immortal Path within him also began to cultivate the Saint Path at a rapid pace at this moment!

Around him, disciples like Dugu Yuqing, Nan Feng, Jiang Li, and others, were all shocked. They felt the aura of the Black and White Heavenly King undergoing a mysterious change!

“Please make the first move.”

Li Fan smiled.

As the Black and White King’s Saint Dao emerged and his path transformed, he respectfully played his piece.

At this moment, all the surrounding disciples were watching intently!

They knew that this game would involve a collision of various Daos!

The Black and White Heavenly King’s style of play was alternately fierce and flexible, advancing and retreating freely!

His control over offense and defense was very skillful.

But Li Fan was entirely unforced.

It was like he was engaged in something exceedingly simple.

“Quite interesting,”

Li Fan laughed, it had been a long time since he had encountered such an opponent.

The other party’s path of chess had reached a level where it could at least engage with him for over a dozen moves.

He played his pieces in succession.

“Pity, still not quite harmonious!”

Li Fan sighed slightly—after more than a dozen moves, he eventually found that the other party’s chess game still had many flaws!

“Well then, let me help you achieve it!”

Feeling pity for such a talented player—the first he had met of such calibre—he decided to act.

Immediately, Li Fan began to make his moves.

And at this moment, the Black and White Heavenly King gradually fell into a state of Enlightenment.

He felt as if he were being guided, in pursuit of something.

In search of something!

He seemed to see the confluence of black and white.

He seemed to see the fusion of good and evil.

He seemed to see the convergence of immortals and demons!

That was… true carefreeness!

No distinction between good and evil, only freedom!

Good is freedom.

Evil is freedom!

The Black and White Heavenly King made his move.

All of a sudden, at that moment, he closed his eyes!

In an instant.

It was as if he had crossed time and space!

And at that moment, Jiang Li beside him also showed a change in expression. His path of chess resounded as well, and he was pulled into a bizarre state!

At this moment, Jiang Li felt as if he were beyond the realm of time.

In front of Jiang Li’s eyes, he saw a scene from ten thousand years ago!
