Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!

Chapter 136: Chapter 125: Breaking the Chess Game!_1

As soon as Lu Rang made his move, he broke through three games consecutively!

Moreover, he broke each game so simply!

Even the toughest third game was won with just seven moves, defeating his opponent.

By the fourth game, he had even forced his opponent to change tactics!

What does this mean?

“It seems that even Xiao Yan, the strongest just now, did not manage to do this…”

“Xiao Yan? He’s far behind. Xiao Yan has to ponder deeply over the chessboard, unlike Lu Rang, who casually places a few pieces and secures victory!”

“He’s invincible. Where does this Lu Rang come from? What is his background?”

Everyone was extremely shocked.

“A prodigy of ancient times, this is indeed a true prodigy of ancient times!”

“Born Divine Hand… To possess such cultivation at his age!”

The three Chess Saints exclaimed in surprise!

Even Little Chess Saint Lu Xing was now staring dumbfounded at Lu Rang.

How terrifying must the opponent be?

The chess problems that he himself couldn’t solve even with white hair… the opponent had solved so easily…

Though he had never been arrogant in the path of chess, he had lived his life with deep confidence, yet at this moment, he suddenly felt infinitely insignificant.

“Forcing the opponent to change tactics, can Lu Rang still handle it?”

Everyone watched Lu Rang intently, nerves on edge.

Lu Rang was also taken aback for a moment, his feelings quite complex at this time.

Could his Master be… too abnormal?

The challenges that drain people’s lifelong efforts are nothing in front of his Master!

Forcing the opponent to change tactics…

And at this moment.

On the other side of the Crystal.

As the fourth game appeared, Li Fan was also somewhat surprised.

“The person playing chess with Lu Rang is also quite capable.”

The first three games, though intricate and complex, had very obvious flaws for the opponent.

But this fourth game was different; the opponent stopped attacking and began defending, with quite a remarkable defensive strategy.

Most people would have great difficulty unraveling it.

However, Li Fan only glanced at it twice before continuing:

“Vertical one, horizontal four, star and moon in chorus, driving the heavenly bull to retreat, two forces interconnect, summoning the azure dragon out of its den, divide the realm at four, to sever its head!”

On the other side of the Crystal.

Lu Rang continued to place his pieces according to what Li Fan had said!

This time, it wasn’t so fast!

Not until the tenth piece was placed did the fourth game finally collapse!

The fourth game was also broken!

Everyone on the scene was dumbfounded.

Could it be any more terrifying?

“Forcing an opponent to change tactics, and despite having the disadvantage of moving second, to break the game in just ten moves… how profound must this person’s chess skills be?”

“Unimaginable… simply unimaginable!”

“This person is a genuine unparalleled genius!”

All eyes became complicated as they looked at Lu Rang, their expressions having completely changed.

“What kind of extraordinary talent is this… his grasp over the game must have reached the celestial realm!”

The three Chess Saints wore expressions of frightened awe.

” Who would have thought that Young Master Dugu’s brother would be so formidable? It must be that Young Master Dugu and his fellow disciples hail from an extraordinary lineage, right?”

Even Qing Lan was now looking at Dugu Yuqing with complex emotions sparkling in her beautiful eyes.

Indeed, she had felt from the beginning that the two were not ordinary… She just didn’t expect them to be this incredible!

But in response, a flicker of embarrassment crossed Dugu Yuqing’s mind as he said:

“You flatter us, Miss Qing Lan… We really come from a village, where Brother Lu Rang… genuinely works the land.”

He knew right away that it had to be the Master’s doing.

Otherwise, Lu Rang would not understand the first thing about the path of chess.

Still, he himself had not expected the Master to be so formidable, pressuring the opponent to change tactics, and, after the change, still breaking through the game in just ten moves.

Master truly has profound scholarly wisdom, masterful in everyway!

At these words, both Xia Yao and Qing Lan showed expressions of complete disbelief on their faces!

Working the land in a village?

Such an unmatched talent would still till the fields?

“Too much modesty turns into arrogance!”

Xia Yao couldn’t help but grind her teeth!

Dugu Yuqing fell silent, wondering how speaking the truth could lead to disbelief.

At this moment, Lu Rang was already standing before the fifth game.

Undoubtedly, he was still holding the white pieces, facing the black, and furthermore, had the initiative.

Yet, almost without hesitation, Lu Rang picked up a piece and played it!

The fifth game, thirteen moves!

Thirteen moves to completely break through!

Everyone in the hall was so stunned they’d become numb!

The sixth round!

When it came to the sixth round, Lu Rang’s gaze seemed to linger for two seconds, but it was only two seconds!

Afterward, he made consecutive moves!

Nineteen moves!

Nineteen moves later, the sixth game was broken!

The entire venue fell into complete silence, everybody’s eyes fixed on him!

The seventh game!

When Lu Rang appeared before the seventh matchup, on the bone chair opposite him, a skeletal figure suddenly materialized!

The skeleton, sitting across from him, held a white piece in its hand, making the first move!

And everyone, upon seeing the skeleton appear, was utterly shocked!

“What is that? Could the skeleton still be alive?”

“Too terrifying, is this a spirit from the Burial Immortal Mountain Range that’s still alive?”

“Inconceivable.”

People started exclaiming one after another!

An elder from the Earth Spirit Alliance was even more astonished and said:

“No, after tens of thousands of years, the skeleton hasn’t decomposed? And the joints look like white jade… Does this skeleton… emit a faint Immortal aura?!” Upon hearing this, the entire place erupted into commotion!

An aura of Immortality?!

For the entire Lower World, Immortality… was like distant stars!

Something only heard of in legends!

But now, there appeared a white bone with an aura of Immortality, playing a game against the people of the Lower World!

“To be able to play a match with it, that’s already a tremendous opportunity!” “Alas, how lamentable! If only we could witness this match, perhaps we could make further progress…”

“The Burial Immortal Mountain Range must have terrifying opportunities. We must obtain what’s here!”

Instantly, everyone’s eyes were filled with shock and fervor!

The more powerful the skeleton seemed, the more terrifying the hidden opportunities were believed to be!

“No, we must devise a plan, to win over this Lu Rang…”

“We must win him over, he’s a genius of a generation, and moreover, he is very likely the only one who can break the Barrier and enter!”

“Our sect’s Saintess, may finally have found a suitable match…”

Many old monsters were pondering this and spoke in hushed tones.

The young elites on-site had even more complex expressions, feeling a bitter ache in their hearts.

This was too heaven-defying…

Even from the other side, where Xiao Yan lay collapsed on the ground, a barely discernible voice resonated within him:

“This skeleton, such a familiar aura… I remember now, he… the Southern Heavenly War General who stood shoulder to shoulder with me…”

Meanwhile, Lu Rang sat opposite the skeleton, contemplating his move three seconds after his opponent had laid down a piece.

On the other side of the crystal.

Li Fan, watching the other’s plays, was overjoyed!

“Excellent!”

He couldn’t help but praise, the chess player that Lu Rang was facing indeed had some talent.

“Spanning northwest, the dragon-slaying grid, Vertical Ten, Horizontal

Seventeen, blotting out the sky…”

Li Fan kept on speaking,

And on the other side of the crystal, Lu Rang followed Li Fan’s words, making twenty-one moves in succession!

The moment the last piece was placed, the chessboard disappeared!

In front of Lu Rang, the white skeleton suddenly stood up, raised its hand, and pointed at Lu Rang. A ray of light shot into Lu Rang’s body!

This beam of light contained countless runes and various golden inscriptions!

Lu Rang felt a sudden shift, for he found that his cultivation level had skyrocketed past the Xuanxian Realm in that instant…

Moreover, it had directly entered the Mysterious Immortal Sixth Heaven!

He had absorbed all the cultivation and essence of the white skeleton, and even more had been stored within him, forming the foundation of his path!

“What a great opportunity…”

He couldn’t help but speak out loud.

However, at the same time, the moment those golden inscriptions entered Lu Rang’s body, they were crushed and dissipated into nothing!

Lu Rang had absorbed the other’s cultivation and essence, but its legacy… was obliterated by something inside Lu Rang… as if it disdained the legacy for being too trite…

The skeleton seemed to sense that its legacy had been destroyed, quivering on its own before it shattered!

Outside, everyone was so shell-shocked they went numb!

Utterly numb!

“An existence with an aura of Immortality, completely overpowered in a game… utterly crushed…”

The old Chess Saint Bai Yizi was visibly twitching.

“This youth is definitely of an Immortal lineage!”

An old Xuanxian exclaimed in shock.

“How terrifying, has this youth received the legacy of a great figure from the Immortal Domain?”

The rest couldn’t help but marvel.

In the eyes of Dark Moon Sect’s Sect Master Yin Yuanchen, a barely perceptible blood-red gleam flickered:

“Excellent, excellent, all the opportunities obtained just now will eventually be mine…”

Within Xiao Yan, the First Immortal General, Yang Miechen, muttered to himself:

“Why did I not encounter this youth, such an excellent heir… The Southern Heavenly War General has found a good inheritor…”

His words were filled with complexity… and envy!!

If he only knew that the Southern Heavenly War General’s legacy didn’t even qualify to enter Lu Rang’s body… who knows what he would think!

And Lu Rang took his seat before the eighth matchup.

During the eighth, likewise, a skeleton appeared opposite Lu Rang.

However, this skeleton had bones of shimmering golden color!

They looked incredibly sacred!

The Golden Skeleton!

Its sacred aura caused everyone on site to be immensely shocked!

“Heaven, is this… Immortality?”

“The remains of an Immortal?”

“How is that possible… how could the Burial Immortal Mountain Range bury an Immortal?!”

The entire venue erupted!
