Chapter 3997: Questions about the Way of Chess

"I! I can't compare to you..."

"I can only benefit from the glory of my ancestors..."

Yun Yi smiled happily and took out a yellowed ancient book.

"You will definitely surpass your ancestors..." Lin Yun smiled.

"Your words...are enough...good luck, brother!"

Yun Yi laughed and fell down. The ancient book in his hand bloomed with brilliance, allowing him to enter the skull of his ancestor without any hindrance.

Lin Yun jumped into the light film without any hindrance.

Moreover, he is not as difficult as others.

On the contrary, many skulls have brilliance extending over them, trying to win over him.

The skulls of one man and one demon who were playing chess suddenly vibrated, shattering the light that rolled toward Lin Yun.

Following this, two rays of light, one black and one white, swept over them.

They also want to compete for Lin Yun, hoping that Lin Yun can accept their inheritance.

The two forces converged around Lin Yun, and neither one was willing to give up. For a moment, they were entangled together.

Lin Yun took out the white jade chess box he got at the Lanke Sect's secret place.

Mysterious power bloomed in the chess box, easily dispelling the two brilliance of one black and one black.

Lin Yun took the opportunity to fall into the middle chessboard.

"Unexpectedly...you actually took this token..."

"What are we fighting for?"

"Our inheritance will definitely not satisfy you..."

In the void, there seems to be a sigh that travels through time and space.

This man and this demon feel a little lonely.

They fought for countless years.

Even though he was turned into bones at this time and no child was lost, he never gave up on winning.

In order to be able to see the secrets of Tianshu Palace.

But they fell behind Lin Yun in front of them after all.

"You...are indeed powerful. We won't argue with you anymore."

"So...there is no need to play this unfinished game..."

"In other words...we have already played a game...in Linglong Pavilion..."

One person and one demon sighed quietly.

Lin Yun also understood that although the chessboard in Linglong Pavilion was magical, it still contained the wisdom of these two people.

"But... we still have one problem that we don't understand."

"I still want to ask you..."

"If you can answer us... we can also be willing... to naturally open the door to the secret place."

"Otherwise...you will destroy us..."

One person and one demon are still a bit stubborn.

However, most practitioners have deep obsessions.

If there is no obsession, how can one practice to a high level?

Therefore, facing their request, Lin Yun had no choice but to agree.

Lin Yun's current strength simply couldn't destroy these two skulls.

But to answer a question, he felt that he could still do it.

"Two seniors, please speak!"

Lin Yun said respectfully.

As soon as he said these words, he felt powerful thoughts gathering on all the skulls.

Obviously, everyone is concerned about this issue.

Lin Yun replied, it depends on whether they are free.

"Our problem is simple..."

"What does chess do mean?"

They all had the same mind and were ultimately troubled by this problem.

Lin Yun thought for a while and smiled calmly: "The foundation of chess is still 'struggle'."

"Fight?"

The mental energy surrounding Lin Yun shook one after another, obviously shocked by this answer.

"How can this be?"

"The way of chess is designed to resolve disputes, and the final outcome is no dispute!"

"Yes! When a person is immersed in the art of chess, his heart is peaceful, and he travels between heaven and earth. He has no worries, only the piece in his heart. When will he have the thought of 'fighting' again?"

…

For a moment, doubts arose, and they disagreed with Lin Yun's statement.

Lin Yun smiled calmly and slowly explained his reasoning.

"There are countless creatures in the world. Each person has one mind, and one mind has hundreds of thousands of thoughts..."

"How can so many thoughts be solved by a game of chess?"

"Moreover, it is unfair to place the interests of everyone in the hands of the person who holds the title. How many people will be able to accept the final result..."

"So, we can only continue to fight for hundreds of games... Although we are trying not to compete for fame, we are still fighting for it after all."

"The fight must be unstoppable!"

"What's more... a game of chess has gone through countless years and has many types. There are too many ways to record it..."

"And where do all these kinds of ways come from?"

"Could it start from the fight between two pieces on the chessboard?"

"If there is no struggle... the chess game will stop moving forward, and eventually it will become lonely and disappear in the endless years."

"And isn't it the same with civilization?"

"Without civilization...there are no living beings."

"The final result... can only be that the world falls into darkness..."

"So... the ultimate goal of chess is not 'no fighting', but how to 'fight'."

"Educate the world, fight with your own mind, fight with the unknown... rather than fight with cleverness and plunder!"

"This is the way of chess as I understand it!"

After Lin Yun finished speaking, there was silence all around.

But the gathered thought power instantly transformed into endless pure mental power, turning into two chess pieces, one black and one white, on Lin Yun's Xinyuan Flower.

Although Lin Yun did not break through to the Imperial Realm because of this, the absorption of the inheritance essence of many powerful people also made his strength a further step forward.

However, after a moment of silence, the two skulls that were playing against each other slowly became blurred and finally disappeared.

That was not what the strong men left behind after their death. After all, it was nothing but the bones transformed by their obsession.

Where they disappeared.

An illusory portal appeared.

Obviously, this was the entrance to the secret place of Tianshu Palace.

Lin Yun rushed in.

Then the portal disappeared.

And the skulls around, some disappeared after silence, and some turned directly into jade bones.

Only the few that were receiving inheritance remained there.

…

Lin Yun passed through the portal and appeared on a flat grassland.

In the distance, the green mountains were picturesque, covered with a thin mist, and a mysterious feeling arose spontaneously.
