Chapter 202 – Chess

There were only two types of inheritances in terms of array formations currently. The first was the inheritance of the Primary Magnetic Formation Yin Chen had left behind, it contained the most abundant but also the most complex set of array formations related to them. With the Primary Magnetic Formation as the center, Yang Junshan was able to extend ouotal of ten or so array formations, and most of these array formations were also mastered by him now.

The other type of inheritance that Yang Junshan had from Spiritual Master Chen Ji was related to the Immovable Mountain Formation. If this inheritance was complete, it would even include the Immovable Mountain Formation, but what Yang Junshan had obtained were only the parts below the Spirit Formation level.

Because this Inheritance in the array was personally picked out by Spiritual Master Chen Ji and passed to him by himself, Yang Junshan did not manage to obtain anything else related to the Inheritance in the array.

Thinking about it here, Yang Junshan laughed: “The inheritance that I obtained without moving like a mountain, is not complete.”

Xiong Xizhe seemed to have anticipated this a long time ago, as he nodded and said, “Are you missing a formation that can’t move like the mountain? It’s fine as long as you have a complete inheritance from the Spiritual Array. ”

Xiong Xizhe paused for a while, and said: “Then, what does Taoist Yang want to get from me? With two inheritance arrays for my lower body, would you like to choose one of them? ”

Unexpectedly, Yang Junshan shook his head with a smile on his face. Xiong Xizhe’s face flushed as he said: “Oh, I think so, although the Immovable Mountain Formation does not have the ability to kill the enemy, it has the ability to defend against enemies, and it is strong enough to be able to pass on to any formation at the same level, if we were to exchange it for the inheritance of a spirit formation, Taoist Yang would indeed suffer a loss.

Yang Junshan still shook his head, and pointed to the Chess plate on the table, laughing: “What I need is not the array, but here!”

“You want to bet on the Chess?”

Without waiting for Xiong Xizhe’s response, Xiong Xiying, who was at the side, had already raised her voice and said: “What kind of joke is this? Do you think that this set of Chess s is just an ordinary low grade magic tool? Let me tell you, this treasure belongs to my Xiong Family, not a single family heirloom. Although it is a low rank magic tool, its value is comparable to a spirit treasure! ”

Xiong Xizhe also shook his head: “As an array master, you should know the value of Chess, but to use your inheritance to exchange for it is too far, unless you have a complete inheritance that is as unmoving as a mountain, furthermore, even if you have me, you might not be willing to gamble with me.”

Yang Junshan laughed: “You are right, but I have never thought of exchanging for your Chess, but you should know the desire of an array master for that Chess, so I wish to bet on the inheritance method that you have refined for my array disc, how about it?”

Xiong Xizhe muttered to himself, and Xiong Xiying mocked: “The method to refine Chess, with just you? Do you know how many rare spiritual materials are needed to refine the lowest level of a set of Chess s? Do you know what the standard of the refiners who refine Chess s is? ”

At this time, Shi Jingxuan let out a sigh, and said: “Brother Yang, I know what you are thinking about, but let me remind you, putting aside where the Chess crafting masters are looking for, even the spirit materials needed to refine Chess are not something that ordinary people can find. Even as one of the three powerful Xiong Family s of our county, it took you three whole years to obtain this set of Chess, even though you are a son of the Yang Cunzheng family, but you cannot take advantage of Yang Cunzheng’s power in the village.

Yang Junshan’s eyes looked deeply at Shi Jingxuan, and that Shi Jingxuan felt as if two great mountains had smashed down from the sky, and his mind actually went blank for a moment. He seemed to have heard what Yang Junshan was saying, but he was still unable to react in the end.

Yang Junshan’s first glance at it was called ‘Witness’, a battle that used cultivators’ own spiritual awareness as a foundation, and condensed their individual cultivators’ wills. It was also a form of defense that cultivators used to warn each other after the great change in their previous life.

That glance of Yang Junshan’s just now was not only an attack that his spiritual sense had gone througound of tempering, it was also an embodiment of the will that Yang Junshan had condensed countless of life and death experiences in his past life. To his left and right, Shi Jingxuan was merely an ordinary cultivator who had just advanced into the martial arts realm;

Even though Yang Junshan was infuriated by Shi Jingxuan’s nonsense in his heart, he did not refute within the tastiness. Instead, he looked towards Xiong Xizhe and asked, “What does Fellow Daoist Xiong say?”

Xiong Xizhe spread his hands out, and said: “They are already done speaking, what else do I need to say, since you insist on obtaining the inheritance of the Chess, then let’s make a bet!”

It was at this time that he let out a loud “Ah”. Shi Jingxuan suddenly broke free from that oppressive feeling a moment ago, and cold sweat flowed down his back from his clothes. When he looked at Yang Junshan again, his eyes were filled with wariness.

But right after, Shi Jingxuan felt that the atmosphere around him had become a little unusual, when he turned around and looked at the people around him, he saw that they were all looking at him as though he was crazy.

Xiong Xizhe frowned: “Brother Shi, although this place is your home, but as I said before, during the array, it is best for others to not disturb us. If you are not satisfied, Taoist Yang and I will choose another place.”

“No, no, no.” Shi Jingxuan immediately waved his hand and smiled apologetically, and looked at Yang Junshan suspiciously: “I was just shocked, don’t blame me, everyone don’t blame me!”

Xiong Xizhe coldly snorted, then extended his hand out towards Yang Junshan: “Taoist Yang, please!”

“Alright!” Yang Junshan picked uhess from the jade alms bowl and placed it on the chess board, while similarly saying: “Fellow Daoist Xiong, please!”

Although it was not an encirclement, it required the two of them to restrain each other in the process of playing the game. The two of them could use the opportunity to arrange a formation to fight, and once the formation reached ten percent, they could withdraw the opponent’s chess pieces within the scope of the formation, but the final result of the formation could only be displayed two ways: One was that the chess pieces placed by the person could only hold one set of spirit arrays, if the two of them were placed in the array beforehand, the other side could only concede, but the competition between the two sides would not be easy.

Of course, there were chess among them. However, it was as rare as setting up a Spiritual Array.

The two of them began to move chess extremely quickly. Although Yang Junshan was the first to move, he became more imposing and quickly occupied the initiative on the chessboard, placing down one attack and one defense, forming two small array formations. Although Yang Junshan tried to stop them, he was tricked by Xiong Xizhe and succeeded in forming the formation.

On the other hand, on Yang Junshan’s side, she was held back by Xiong Xizhe at the start, and couldn’t even form a formation successfully in the middle of the chess board formation with more than ten moves. In the end, she could only guard the lower corner of the board in an unmoving mountain array formation obediently, and a large piece of the chessboard was devoured by Xiong Xizhe. The two of them only had a total of a hundred moves left, and even Xu Sanniang and the other people who didn’t understand the array formation could tell that Yang Junshan was seriously at a disadvantage.

It was unknown when Shi Nansheng, who had gone to the front hall, had already returned to the back hall, and was similarly watching the two play together with the others. As for Xiong Xiying and Shi Jingxuan, they looked at each other without anyone noticing, and both of them could see the carefree look in their eyes.

There was no formation master different from Chess, and that was true. However, there was a difference between understanding Chess and going down Chess personally, and that Yang Junshan was, after all, a country bumpkin, so this was probably the first time he had seen a real Chess. He was obviously unable to compare to Xiong Xizhe, who had been studying formations with Chess for many years.

Another few tens of hands went through, Xiong Xizhe’s chess set became even more overbearing and two more array formations formed in the middle of the array plate. During this time, Yang Junshan also tried to take control of the array essence that Xiong Xizhe had placed down, trying to suppress Xiong Xizhe’s momentum, but to his surprise, Xiong Xizhe suddenly activated his array formation and devoured a dozen of them consecutively, causing Yang Junshan’s center plate to become even weaker.

Fortunately, Yang Junshan had taken the opportunity to launch an attack from the middle of the formation to avoid the attack. At the same time, he also formed two small array formations around the Immovable Mountains Chess, one of them was a Golden Blade Formation and the other one waoncealment Formation. Once the array was formed, Xiong Xizhe’s attack would immediately decrease a little, but the other one covered an area of three inches around the array formation.

Xiong Xizhe scanned with his Spiritual Sense, as if he had broken through an array to get an inkling of the situation, but contrary to his expectations, he felt as if he had hiuge mountain, and not only did his Spiritual Sense fail to return, it had even almost messed up the array formation due to his Spiritual Sense.

Chess was not only trying to deduce the array, but it was also a way for cultivators to compete in cultivation. Every chess piece was set up to form a formation, and the amount of spirit energy needed to open a formation, and how the chess pieces were connected through the chessboard, and whether they were connected to each other or to each other, was something only the chess player knew.

Otherwise, if a cultivator were to meet a formation that he did not understand in the Chess, he would only need to look at the chess pieces that the other party set up to be able to obtain a formation inheritance!

It could be deceived by using extra pieces, or it could be changed by focusing on a certain aspect of the chess game. Aesult, even if both sides played chess, the formation they cultivated could be recognized by the opponent, but they might not be able to find an opening to break through it easily.

For the same reason, if he was familiar with the Go Formations set up by his opponent, he could also use the formation to infer whether the opponent’s Go Formations were connected or flawed in advance and forcefully break through it.

This would depend on whether or not the cultivator’s deductions about the array formation would work, but Xiong Xizhe, who had always held the upper hand in the competition between the two of them, suffered a loss this time, his Spirit Sense was actually far from Yang Junshan’s, and could not detect even a hint of it from the concealment array that Yang Junshan had set up.
