Chapter 106. Response and Preparation.

A good chess player will never rush to end a battle on the chessboard and has great patience. He would rather spend twice as much time to make the game foolproof than end it in a hurry at the expense of lowering the success rate, even if it is just This reduces the success rate by one percent.

Xu Qingfan is a patient chess player. Why did he prepare for this game of chess with other major forces for decades? He is also prepared to use hundreds of years to deal with other chess players until the end.

Zhang Xusheng is naturally also a high-level chess player. He has prepared for hundreds of years longer than Xu Qingfan, and is prepared to spend a longer time slowly playing with other chess players. The word "play" seems to be more appropriate here. Nothing goes wrong. As time goes on, the one who wins is most likely to be him.

However, God's will played a trick on people, and with the unconscious cooperation of many parties, many coincidences came together to measure everyone's calculations.

This game of chess ended much earlier.

The difference between victory and defeat, or death together, seems to be close at hand.

Since becoming a grandmaster, Xu Qingfan has gradually developed a kind of self-confidence, feeling that as his strength and mind gradually mature, everything can be changed by himself, and gradually he no longer relies on the so-called illusory fate.

Therefore, fate is a very strange thing, which can make Xu Qingfan's fatalism become like this.

However, this time, Xu Qingfan became more and more uneasy as he thought about Zhang Xusheng's various anomalies. He always felt that there seemed to be some huge shadow that was gradually shrouding himself - and even the world. The mountain-like pressure gave Xu Qingfan a breathless sense of fear and urgency.

Xu Qingfan has experienced quite a few ups and downs over the years, but this situation only happened once. That was when he was still a monk in the spiritual silence stage and represented Jiuhua in the competition for newcomers in the world of immortality. At that time, Huan On the island, more than 90% of the elites of various sects died due to Zhang Xusheng's plan.

And this time it feels like. That kind of depressing and unsettling level. But it was more than ten times stronger than the last time! !

Talk about it. If there were not so many young elites in that rookie competition. There are now hundreds of masters in the Human Alliance who are at least at the peak stage of the real elixir, the mental state, and the golden elixir stage, right? Potential more than doubled. It won't be as embarrassing as it is now. After all, these are the new generation of elites in the world of immortality. His talent and temperament are higher than Xu Qingfan's. There are many people there.

or. While there. Zhang Xusheng had already anticipated all this today. Prepare for all the things that happen today? Like a high ground conductor. Good and evil Shura Zhong family and other forces. under his direct or indirect control. Continuously weakening?

Think of this. Xu Qingfan's worries about Zhang Xu Holy Land deepened. And thinking that this time Zhang Xusheng would rather be sealed by the "Xuanjing Treasure House" for six hundred years. I also don’t want to return to the “vast land of China” during this period. But it was accidentally destroyed by Xu Qingfan. Everything cited. Xu Qingfan was even more shocked.

But I can't find a clue. Xu Qingfan finally remembered the divination artifact that Master Jiuhuan made for him - that one could only be used three times. But it is not shielded by heaven's secrets and interfered by others. The accuracy rate has been greatly increased with the ground black turtle shell.

Looking back. The first two times I used this black turtle shell. Saved his life once. Once changed the fate of Jiuhua. And this time. Can it save the fate of mankind as a whole?

Does this black turtle shell, which has been used exactly three times, mean that Master Jiuhuan has already anticipated all this? And is this black turtle shell prepared for this moment? It was as if he had left the relic and had already expected that one day he would be tortured by the imbalance between life and death.

Suddenly, Xu Qingfan remembered the deep yet peaceful eyes of Master Jiuhuan when he met him for the last time.

Xu Qingfan suddenly felt that the person playing chess with Zhang Xusheng was not him, but Jiuhuan, who was still influencing the situation after his death...

The more he experienced, the more he knew, and the higher his cultivation level became, the more Xu Qingfan felt that he was becoming insignificant, and the world became more and more unpredictable. ,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After casually adding a barrier to block the outside of the room, Xu Qingfan sat cross-legged on his bed silently, the complicated thoughts in his eyes had converged, and what was left was only a quiet and distant place, like an ancient well without waves.

And that black turtle shell appeared in front of Xu Qingfan at some point.

As Xu Qingfan took a deep breath and exhaled it, slowly closing his eyes, a raging fire suddenly appeared on the black turtle shell.

As time went by, many tiny cracks gradually appeared on the turtle shell under the burning of the flames, and they were connected to form an inexplicable pattern.

On the other hand, during Xu Qingfan's divination, a picture suddenly appeared in his mind. He didn't know what it showed, but in just a moment, Xu Qingfan's face turned extremely pale.

a long time……

Xu Qingfan slowly opened his eyes, the shock in his eyes had gone away, and all that was left was a look of deep contemplation.

After a while, Xu Qingfan seemed to suddenly remember something and looked down at the burned black turtle shell.

But on the tortoise shell, the cracks caused by the flames formed two ancient compilation fonts.

"Reincarnation"! ! !

A smile suddenly flashed across Xu Qingfan's face.

"The flowers that I planted intentionally did not bloom, but the willows that I planted unintentionally made shade... Is this destiny? I tried my best and made all kinds of designs, but Zhang Xusheng still took advantage of me, but I didn't expect to get the 'Open Heaven Cauldron' by accident. , opened up the space channel between the 'Xuanjing Treasure House' and the 'Shenzhou Vast Land', and actually ruined Zhang Xusheng's plan... Now, all the chess players in the world are in this series of changes. They have become pawns under the will of God, and their respective fates can only be fought by themselves, but...but they can't

Therefore, there are countless living beings in the entire vast land of China, and how many of them are still good?

While sighing, a glint suddenly flashed in Xu Qingfan's eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Liu, Senior Brother Bai, and Friend Wang Zegang, Qiu, please come to my room to discuss something."

Xu Qingfan's voice was not loud, but everyone within the seven islands of Xia Ling could hear it clearly, as if the speaker was right next to him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At this moment, Qiu was on his Yuheng Island, silently training his Tianyou camp.

Although this operation was basically successful for Tianyou Camp and killed several times as many Shura people as them, Tianyou Camp also suffered serious losses. Only eleven people survived, six of them Among the great masters, only Huangquan Baigui and Qisha are left.

At this moment, Qiu is supervising the training of Tianyou Camp. Although he has added a few more people this time, compared with the heyday, they are still far behind. In order to support his revenge plan, the strength of Tianyou Camp is even more negligible. , for this reason, Qiu has been frowning these days.

The cultivators at Tianyou camp were very particular about fighting closely, with blood all over their bodies, and they only attacked but did not defend. Although they were powerful, they killed three thousand enemies but suffered eight hundred losses.

Although it was training at this moment, they showed no mercy when fighting each other.

At this moment, those fighting in front of Qiu were Qisha and another cultivator from Tianyouying.

As the other four masters died one after another, in the Tianyou camp, the only one with strength above Qisha was the Hundred Ghosts of Huangquan, so it was very easy to defeat her in a short time when using Sound Attack and Sound Enchantment. local opponent.

After Qi Sha returned to Qiu, Qiu nodded slightly in approval.

Qisha's strength has improved very quickly, especially after the bloody battle with the Shura clan, the progress has been amazing.

Seeing Qiu's action, Qi Sha's cold eyes suddenly flashed with a glimmer of light, but it passed away in an instant.

Then, Qisha seemed to remember something, and there was a trace of hesitation in his expression.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Qiu's gloomy voice suddenly sounded.

"Young Master, you... why did you want to kill the Twelve Daluo? Also... the island owner's body collapsed before. At that time, you were the strongest on the seven islands of Xia Ling. Why did you try so hard? You know, the island owner treats you so much. I always have the thoughts of being like a bird."

Qisha asked hesitantly.

Qiu suddenly sneered and asked, "Are these words asked by the Hundred Ghosts of Underworld to ask you?"

Qisha was slightly stunned and expressed his acquiescence.

"Huang Quan, this guy, always likes to hide in the dark. The reason why I killed Twelve Great Luo before was because Twelve Great Luo said the same thing to you, and the reason why Twelve Great Luo said the same thing to me, It was also the place where the underworld was instigated by hundreds of ghosts, haha~ Er Da Luo was always cautious and silent, but he actually said the wrong thing at the most critical moment..."

Hearing Qiu Di's words, Qi Sha's face turned pale.

"Don't worry, if you say these words at this time, I won't do anything to you. The reason why I killed the Twelve Great Luo was because it was a special time. You underestimated my master too much. You remember that some time ago, Liu Ziqing had been Stay far away from me and still have a bead spinning in your hand?"

"Remember."

"That's my soul bead. When I was transformed by my master, he not only put a strong restriction on that eye bead, but also put a poison on it, and took away some of my soul. As long as Liu Ziqing takes that soul If the beads are crushed, not only will I lose my mind for a long time, but the restrictions and poisons on the eyes of death will also occur. Master, he thought of all the situations when he abandoned his body. However, even if there is no such thing. Even if I don’t have a soul bead, I won’t do anything at that time. After all, he is my master, and if we want to take revenge on the Shura clan, we must rely on him.”

Hearing Qiu's words, Qi Sha was stunned for a moment, then he looked relieved and murmured softly: "It's not because of that Ting'er..."

"What did you say??!!"

Qiu suddenly turned around and stared at Qisha closely. In the darkness under the hood, two points of blood flashed.

However, at this moment, Xu Qingfan's message arrived.

Qiu took a deep look at Qi Sha, then suddenly turned around and flew towards Yuheng Island.

"If I hear this sentence a second time, you should go see the Twelve Daluo."

…

"As long as you are with Twelve Da Luo..."

As Qiu's figure disappeared, Qisha's faint voice finally sounded.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Qiu came to Xu Qingfan's room, Liu Ziqing, Bai Qingfu, and Wang Zegang had already arrived.

As respectful and rigorous as ever, he bowed to Xu Qingfan and stepped aside when Xu Qingfan waved.

Then, Qiu heard Xu Qingfan say to Liu Ziqing and Bai Qingfu: "Fellow Daoist Liu, Senior Brother Bai, from now on, the matters that the two of you are responsible for will be carefully clarified, one internally and the other externally. Senior Brother Bai, you will be fully responsible for Xialing Seven The internal affairs of the island include training, introduction, refining, management and other aspects. As for you, Brother Daoist Liu, you are fully responsible for the external affairs. I will hand over all the Tianzuo Camp to you, and will try to expand the Tianzuo Camp in the future. The scale and the 'disaster cloud' are all given to you. What you will be responsible for in the future is to infiltrate into the Human Alliance, do your best to destroy the relationship between ordinary monks in the Human Alliance and Zhang Xusheng and his subordinates, and spread the influence of Xialing Seven Islands. Reputation, try to bring the power of the Human Alliance to the Seven Islands of Xialing, whether it is a low-level monk or a high-level monk, even a mortal, I want them all!"

"Island owner, you mean..."

Liu Ziqing's eyes flashed with excitement, but he spoke a little belatedly.

"Since this game of chess has been messed up, then we don't care about other places and just go as we should. I guess as the Shura clan

As the alliance's war continues, casualties on both sides increase, the final outcome
