Chapter 2454 Testing, Enlightenment
The moment the piece was placed, a powerful imperial might surged forth from the body of the Taiwei Emperor. Thousands of mysterious patterns flowed around him, each pattern formed from the true meaning of the Great Dao, calculating the future of the universe and outlining countless peaks of the ultimate imperial path.
Emperor Taiwei did not deliberately put pressure on others; the mere wisp of true power he exuded was enough to make Thousand-Eyed Buddha and others awe-inspiring, and they subconsciously created protective shields to gain a sense of security.
The special chessboard, shrouded in ethereal mist, is mysterious and unpredictable.
Seeing that Emperor Taiwei had already made his move, Mu Cangyan naturally followed suit and did not deliberately delay.
despair!
Mu Cangyan concentrated intently, using his own Dao power to form a chess piece, which he then placed in a certain position on the chessboard.
hum-
In an instant, the chess piece emitted a dazzling, strange light, containing the power of the primordial starry sea. Like a fountain splashing, it adorned this void, imbuing this world with a few strands of indescribable mystery.
Emperor Taiwei calmly pressed down the second chess piece, and time seemed to freeze.
despair!
Once the chess piece fell, the timeline returned to normal.
Suddenly, the phantom of a long river of time rippled across the chessboard, reflecting the footprints of countless ancient heroes—some standing proudly at the pinnacle of their era, others with desolate figures nearing the end of their lives.
Swah——
The wonders of time pass by in the blink of an eye.
Mu Cangyan remained expressionless and continued placing his pieces.
His power was extremely fierce. No matter what extreme rules appeared on the chessboard, he would directly charge in and wipe them all out.
At first, the two were relatively calm. However, as more and more pieces appeared on the chessboard, this area was clearly filled with a strong, chilling aura, invisible yet undeniably real.
Even Li Qiong and the witch, who were at the same peak, were under considerable pressure and had to activate their Daoist secret techniques to remain calm and composed.
Chi Chi Chi!
Lightning flashed across the chessboard.
wow-
It is unknown whose imperial rule formed a wisp of spiritual water resembling a long snake, which wandered according to a certain specific law.
In the very center of the chessboard, two figures, each about the size of a finger, one black and one white, appeared, locked in close combat.
These two figures, transformed from chess pieces, represent the original will of Emperor Taiwei and Mu Cangyan.
Although this is not a true battle, it can test the opponent's strength to some extent.
If there is a significant difference in strength between the two sides, the weaker party can be suppressed.
If the difference is small, then we can only proceed with caution.
"You've improved since then."
After playing for a while, Emperor Taiwei offered his evaluation.
"If we stand still, how dare we sit down and discuss philosophy with you?"
Mu Cangyan had a high degree of recognition of Emperor Taiwei's strength, and his words were full of praise.
Respecting your opponent is respecting yourself.
From the very beginning, Mu Cangyan never underestimated Emperor Taiwei. Even when launching a sneak attack in Emperor Taiwei's later years, she used every trick in the book.
Unfortunately, Mu Cangyan failed. Otherwise, if he had obtained the Dao Fruit of the Taiwei Emperor, he would most likely have already reached the realm of immortality.
The black and white figures on the chessboard are intertwined. What appears to be a simple clash of fists and feet is actually a collision of the ultimate laws of the universe. The river of destiny flows mightily, and the power of annihilation tears the heavens and earth apart.
To the average person, it's just a game of chess shrouded in mist, nothing special. But to a top expert, it's a completely different story.
The chessboard between Mu Cangyan and Emperor Taiwei has transformed into a vast and boundless universe.
The two fundamental wills were engaged in a fierce battle in this universe. The rules of annihilation, like a net covering the boundless universe, were trying to obliterate this wisp of the Taiwei Emperor's will.
Emperor Taiwei would not allow himself to be slaughtered. With a wave of his hand, a long river of time came from the void, rushing upwards, piercing through the net of annihilation, and destroying everything in its path with unstoppable force.
Then, Mu Cangyan used other methods, and the Red Lotus Karmic Fire appeared out of thin air, surrounding Emperor Taiwei.
Emperor Taiwei merely took a step forward, stirring up a gentle breeze of laws, which extinguished all the surrounding red lotus karmic fire.
despair!
In reality, Mu Cangyan made another move, his palm shimmering with countless stars, the chess piece between his fingers stained with a layer of mysterious and extraordinary runes, concealing a sinister intent.
The situation on the chessboard suddenly changed; the universe collapsed, condensing into countless black holes.
Every black hole in the rules contains the ultimate destructive power in the world.
Its fierce power entered the world and immediately locked onto Emperor Taiwei, surging in from all directions to send him to the Avici Hell.
The Taiwei Will within the system remained unmoved and steadfast, regardless of the collapse of the universe.
blah blah blah!
As one of Emperor Taiwei's chess pieces fell, all the surging ferocity vanished into nothingness.
After that, Emperor Taiwei switched from defense to offense and began to press Mu Cangyan step by step.
Mu Cangyan was completely focused and took it seriously.
The ultimate rules of both sides coalesced and then vanished in an instant.
The battle raged back and forth, with life and destruction intertwined.
They lost track of time and ignored the other people sitting around them.
And so, the two became engrossed in the conversation, probing each other's secrets while pondering how to respond.
This was, after all, just a simple game of chess. Emperor Taiwei and Mu Cangyan remained seated solemnly, their faces showing no emotional fluctuations, calm and composed, as if nothing had happened.
The expressions of Thousand-Eyed Buddha and the others were quite solemn. They had been watching the game between the two, and were terrified by the fluctuations of certain laws they had glimpsed.
......
In the outer area of the Sea of Fog, Chen Qingyuan was comprehending the Buddhist and Taoist insights given to him by the Thousand-Eyed Buddha. His divine sense seemed to be wandering in an ocean of Buddhist charm, carefree and at ease, unaware of where the end was.
The strange scene of reincarnation beneath him slowly rotated, merging with thousands upon thousands of mysterious runes of order.
Before I knew it, several months had passed.
Through Chen Qingyuan's unremitting efforts, he read through the insights and reflections of the Thousand-Eyed Buddha and gained some useful knowledge. As a result, the Bodhi tree he saw grew several feet taller and its leaves became more lush.
Chen Qingyuan's aura became more profound, and the star map around his body rotated between life and death, with a supreme and mysterious charm that transcended the mortal world spreading in all directions.
He opened his eyes, his deep gaze encompassing the myriad principles of heaven and earth, causing the void to tremble.
Some of the more powerful Supreme Beings sensed a sense of oppression and immediately looked at Chen Qingyuan, as if they were seeing a giant mountain.
Even more bizarrely, this giant peak is still growing, and it seems it won't stop until it pierces through the entire sky.
"Each of you has your own merits in your approach."
After glancing around, Chen Qingyuan looked openly at the original Daoist essence of the emperors present. He used the Myriad Manifestations Destiny Wheel Secret Scripture to see more clearly, peeling away layer by layer to reach the core.
