Chapter 475
: Chess Gu
"Can you actually see through all the virtual insects?" Elder Ling Tian shrank back, an expression of disbelief appeared in his eyes, and his face gradually became gloomy.
"You're looking for death! Since you have the ability to see through all virtual insects, sooner or later you will become a serious threat to me. I can't let you go."
When Patriarch Lingtian looked towards Zhu Jiuge, his eyes were immediately filled with murderous intent.
However, just as he was about to take action, something unexpected happened. The bottom of the Spirit Sealing Tower flying in the sky suddenly began to crack, and the cracks were constantly expanding.
Ancestor Ling Tian's face suddenly changed, he thought to himself that something was wrong, and quickly took back the small tower in the air.
There are countless virtual insects sealed in this tower. Once it is destroyed and all the virtual insects escape, not only will it bring disaster to the world, but even oneself may be killed by the powerful virtual insects that escape. The consequences are disastrous.
"Damn it! This girl can't be touched!"
Patriarch Ling Tian looked at the girl with a gloomy gaze. Seeing that the cracks in the Spirit Sealing Pagoda were still expanding, he gritted his teeth, immediately gave up the idea of attacking Zhu Jiuge, and flew away at an extremely fast speed.
Sure enough, as he got farther away from Zhu Jiuge, the cracks at the bottom of the Spirit Sealing Tower stopped spreading.
However, seeing him suddenly flee the battlefield, everyone on the battlefield was stunned.
Especially the leaders of the demon cults he brought with him, when they saw him fleeing from the battlefield, they suddenly had an urge to vomit blood.
With the appearance of massive shadow demons, the situation on the battlefield was not optimistic for them. Once Patriarch Lingtian escaped and they lost his strongest fighter, their group of demon cultivators who came to attack the Holy Gu Academy would most likely be wiped out, and not many people could escape in this battle.
"Damn it! Ancestor Ling Tian! You are such a coward, you really made us suffer!"
The leader of the Blood God Cult watched Elder Ling Tian's fleeing back with bloodshot eyes, veins popping out of his fists. He quickly turned around and shouted to the crowd, "All members of the Blood God Cult, listen up! Break out immediately. As many as you can escape will be as many as you can!"
Following his order, the crowd suddenly became chaotic, and large numbers of red-clothed Gu cultivators withdrew from the melee and fled into the distance.
Those who fled were far more than just the Blood God Sect. When many demon cultivators saw Ancestor Ling Tian running away, their morale suddenly became unstable and they also began to withdraw from the battlefield and flee far away.
As this group of people left the battlefield, how could the remaining demon cultivators who were still struggling to hold on withstand the siege of the Gu cultivators from the Holy Gu Academy?
The defeat was like a landslide. With just one move by Patriarch Ling Tian, the coalition forces of the demonic sect immediately began to collapse and were killed.
"Haha! Run? How can our Holy Gu Academy be a place where you can come and go as you please?"
"Since you are here, please stay here!"
The dean laughed grimly and raised the Holy Gu City's protective formation, trapping all the demon cultivators who had no time to escape in the city.
The demon cultivator who was now trapped in the formation was helpless and could only be ruthlessly killed by the Gu cultivators from the Holy Gu Academy and the Shadow Demon who caught up with them.
At this time, there were fights everywhere in Shenggu City, and the whole city was in chaos.
But the fight did not last long. The invading demons were quickly killed and the city soon fell into silence again.
……
At this time, in the distance, the remnants of the defeated soldiers who escaped from the city in time gathered in a valley.
"Ancestor Ling Tian! What on earth are you doing? This battle is clearly going to end, why are you suddenly running away?"
"Do you know that you are the leader of the alliance? If you run, everyone will follow you!"
"Most of my Blood God Cult members have been killed by you!"
The leader of the Blood God Cult had red eyes and questioned loudly at the back of Patriarch Ling Tian.
The demon cultivators from other forces also gathered around him, looking at him angrily and waiting for his explanation.
"Humph! Why should I explain my actions to you?" Ancestor Ling Tian turned his head to look at them, and suddenly showed an evil smile: "Since most of you have stayed in Sheng Gu City, you should go down and accompany them."
"I, the Lingtian Sect, have taken over your territory!"
"what?"
Before the demon cultivators could react, screams were heard from the crowd. From time to time, a demon cultivator was attacked and fell in a pool of blood. Until they died, they didn't know how they died.
Faced with this invisible attack, all the demon cultivators panicked and could only attack everywhere. From time to time, someone was accidentally injured and the crowd suddenly fell into chaos.
The corner of Ling Tian's mouth curled up. He knew that his act of running away in the face of the enemy would offend all the demonic forces. Since he had already offended them, he might as well go all out and kill them all.
At this time, he had already formed the intention of catching all the remaining demon cultivators in one fell swoop.
As a nine-story silver tower flew high from his palm, it became bigger and bigger. The four doors at the bottom of the tower opened wide, and countless virtual insects flew out again.
I don’t know how many virtual insects are sealed in this small tower. It seems like there are endless. A large number of them were slaughtered by the Shadow Demon in the previous battle, and there are still some now.
The virtual worms of Ancestor Ling Tian are not visible to normal people. There is no Long Xuan among this group of demon cultivators, so how could they possibly see the virtual worms of the ninth level.
If you can't see, you can only passively be beaten and ruthlessly slaughtered.
Swarms of virtual insects flew into the army of demon cultivators, starting a bloodbath. The demon cultivators died in large numbers, as they were unable to fight back under the attacks of the virtual insects.
Soon the small valley was filled with blood and the ground was littered with corpses of Gu practitioners of various levels.
The army of demon cultivators who had managed to escape from the city earlier were now dead.
The valley fell into silence again.
Patriarch Ling Tian tore off the clothes of a corpse, wiped the blood off his hands, threw away the blood-stained clothes, and under the control of his soul power, he tore off the storage bags of all the corpses, and finally left.
……
Holy Gu City.
After the war, Long Xuan returned to the abyss under the Demon Suppressing Tower again. After completely repairing the remaining unfinished formations, he dragged his tired body back to the warm little shop.
As a great war had just taken place in the city and many people had died, business in his shop was slow and no customers had come in today.
Long Xuan yawned. After being busy in the Abyss World for such a long time, he was already mentally exhausted. Just when he was about to close the business for the day and have a good rest, he suddenly saw a piece of paper with beautiful handwriting on it.
Long Xuan frowned slightly and immediately walked over to pick up the note.
There were not many words on it, and it said: You are my only friend now, I don’t want to drag you down, I’m leaving, don’t look for me.
Needless to say, this note was left by Zhu Jiuge.
After completing the graduation task assigned to her by the college, she no longer had any reason to stay here, and leaving was inevitable.
Long Xuan was feeling a little melancholy. During the time he was repairing the formation in the abyss, his chess Gu had already been developed. Using the new version of chess Gu to play chess with geniuses from all sides, he would be able to share a small part of their luck. With the accumulation, he would become a person with great luck.
The ability of the bad luck Gu is ineffective against those with great luck. It can be said that his chess Gu is a rare nemesis of the bad luck Gu.
If he had approached Zhu Jiuge before, he would have avoided the influence of the bad luck Gu by not being friends with him, but now that he had the chess Gu, he really didn't have to be afraid of the bad luck Gu anymore. "Alas! She left before I could give her the pill that could attract the life-transforming thunder. I don't know if I can deny it."
Long Xuan sighed, put away the note, and found the chess Gu that had been refined by his clone in the store.
The appearance of this chess Gu is no different from before, it still looks like a chess piece, but now it can be divided into 361 sub-chess Gu. By playing chess with geniuses from all sides, the strength of each sub-chess Gu is continuously enhanced.
This is a cultivation-type poisonous insect. It is extremely weak now, even weaker than a low-grade poisonous insect.
Once it grows up and the 361 chess Gu are fully equipped, there will be few Gu worms in the world that can match his chess Gu.
At this time, he had to prepare for the cultivation of chess Gu, which was bound to be a time-consuming and long-lasting task.
The Holy Gu Academy, which gathered geniuses from all over the world, became the best place for Long Xuan to select talents.
Although this battle caused the Holy Gu Academy to lose a large number of students, it was Zhu Jiuge who turned the tide in the end, and the losses of the Holy Gu Academy's top talents were not heavy.
Holding the chess Gu in his palm, Long Xuan felt a great sense of accomplishment and laughed, "You were born according to the rules of 19-route chess, so I will name you 19."
……
After a day of rest, Shenggu City resumed normal operation on the second day.
Long Xuan's coffee shop has reopened. In order to play chess with the most talented genius in the Holy Gu Academy, Long Xuan decided to use coffee Gu as bait. He does not plan to close this coffee Gu store in the short term.
As soon as he opened his shop today, he welcomed the first business that came to him.
The visitor had eyebrows as beautiful as paintings, skin as white as jade, a noble and elegant temperament, and a face that was beyond compare to ordinary people. He seemed out of place compared to the passers-by on the street.
The woman walked into the store with a delicate guqin in her arms, dragging her long skirt. Her eyes fell on one of the treasures in the palace, and she showed an interested look. She said with her rosy lips:
"It is an auxiliary Gu worm that can unconditionally double the combat power of one's own Gu worms. The ability of this Gu is truly heaven-defying. With this Gu, the combat power of a Gu cultivator can be doubled directly."
"I heard that this is a kind of coffee Gu created by Zhu Jiuge, named Jiuge Gu."
"How are you going to sell this Jiuge Gu?"
Looking at the person who came, Long Xuan quickly understood his identity.
Since he was planning to cultivate a chess Gu, he would naturally have to investigate the famous genius of the Holy Gu Academy.
This girl's name is Qin Mingyue. She is known as the most beautiful girl in Sheng Gu Academy and the leader among the four beauties in the academy. She is also the genius currently ranked first on the Sheng Gu Academy's genius list.
Such a talented person completely meets his chess playing standards, and he must bind this female prodigy to one of the chess pieces.
Long Xuan immediately perked up and said, "You should know the rules of my store. If you want to buy the best Gu worms in my store, you must play a game of chess with me."
"As for the trading item, you only need to bring out something of almost equal value."
Since the materials for refining chess Gu had been collected, Long Xuan didn't know what he needed now. In addition, he was determined to get this girl, so he didn't plan to put too many restrictions on the transaction items. He only needed the girl to bring out something of equal value.
Speaking of which, this Jiuge Gu was the one that Zhu Jiuge randomly drew out of the coffee when he asked her to open a shop with him that day.
She simply named this Gu Jiuge Gu.
Jiuge Gu has an amplification field. No matter how many Gu worms there are in the field, their combat power can be doubled unconditionally.
Such ability is nothing short of incredible, and is enough to surpass most of the best poisonous insects in this world. Its value can be imagined. It has now surpassed the Sleepless Gu and become the treasure of this store.
Unfortunately, this auxiliary ability is similar to the ability of his tea Gu and cannot be superimposed. As both are amplifying Gu worms, it is impossible for them to amplify each other. He can only give up the urge to make a blood contract with a Nine Song Gu.
Otherwise, once the collective combat power of his bunch of terrifying top-grade poisonous insects doubled, I don’t know how terrifying they would be.
Hearing this, Qin Mingyue nodded, took out a worm jar from the worm breeding bag and placed it on the table, smiling and said: "This is a top-grade spiritual worm bookworm, which I got by accident."
"Don't underestimate this as just a spiritual insect. However, due to its rarity and 100% success rate in refining Gu, its value is completely comparable to that of a top-grade Gu insect."
"How about I exchange a top-grade bookworm for your Nine Song Gu?"
Hearing that the worm jar contained a bookworm, Long Xuan immediately became alert.
There are countless classic masterpieces from his previous lives in his mind, which are all great treasures in this world. Bookworms are like a tiger with wings in his hands.
Regardless of whether he made a profit or a loss on this transaction, he had decided to make the trade, and he was determined to win this bookworm.
"Okay, I was just about to get a Gu worm to make a book Gu, but I didn't expect that what I wished for would come true. Let's make a deal."
"But before the transaction, we need to play a game of chess, and it must be the 19-way chess that I created. Do you mind?"
As he spoke, Long Xuan had already walked to the table where the chessboard was placed and sat down.
This time, the chess pieces placed on the table were no longer chess pieces, but chess Gu with legs grown.
Refining one Gu worm is equivalent to refining more than three hundred Gu worms. He couldn't help but sigh that refining chess Gu was really a good deal, buy one and get three hundred free.
"No need to explain it specifically. Now not only are people in the whole city playing 19-Route Chess, but people all over the world are playing 19-Route Chess. The original 17-Route Chess has long been played by no one."
"You are truly a genius. In order to create your own Go Gu, you actually forcibly changed the rules of the game of Go and made everyone in the world adapt to you. In the end, you actually succeeded."
Qin Mingyue's lips curled up slightly. As she spoke, she walked to the opposite side of the table and sat down. She looked at Long Xuan opposite her and smiled, "I practice the art of playing the zither. I am good at playing the zither, but not at chess."
"What's more, I have to play chess using your original method. I am not used to the new method."
"To be fair, could you let me go first?"
Hearing this, Long Xuan immediately shook his head like a rattle. He didn't want to learn chess Gu, who gave up nine pieces just to show off, and ended up losing several games.
This game is crucial to him. Only if he defeats this woman, the power of chess Gu will take effect.
In this situation, how could he dare to give in even if he was very sure? He could only win this game and not lose. He couldn't even give the beauty a chance. He had to play this game with 100% confidence.
"I won't give up a single piece!" Long Xuan said firmly, his tone leaving no room for rejection.
"How about giving two pieces?"
"Not even one move will be given up!"
"What a stingy man! How about letting me go first? You wouldn't even refuse such a small request!"
"No! This is my territory, I'm the boss, I want to go first!"
After saying that, Long Xuan inserted two fingers into the chess pot, picked up a black chess piece Gu whose legs were shaking, and dropped it heavily on the right corner of the chessboard.
Seeing him being so ungraceful, Qin Mingyue rolled her eyes and could only sit down and put her slender jade fingers into the chess pot... (End of this chapter)
