Chapter 1260 1255-Breaking Through The Three Gates
In the second round, Emperor Xi went first.
The West Emperor picked the black piece, and the black piece landed in the middle.
Fang ping placed a white piece, not caring how the Emperor of the West would place it.
This time, Fang ping did not go back on his word.
The two of them placed their pieces one after the other, extremely fast.
It was very difficult to win by forming a line of nine pieces.
This required him to consider dozens of steps with each step, or even further.
Heaven’s Fate watched for a while, frowning slightly. If Fang ping did not go back on his word, the chances of him winning against his father were not high.
“AI!”
Celestial pole suddenly reminded him softly. He looked at Fang ping helplessly and said,”He already has seven pieces, why didn’t you stop him! It’s fine if you didn’t stop him, but you’ve even made a dead move. Aren’t you just giving him a chance to win?”
Fang ping looked at him in surprise.”Did he win?”
“It’s almost time!”
Emperor Xi looked at Fang ping doubtfully. As a top powerhouse, his mentality was strong. He could even deduce the arrangement of combat techniques, not to mention this kind of chess game. Fang ping had not played for long. How could he make a mistake?
Emperor Xi hesitated for a moment, but he still placed his piece.
The eight pieces formed a line, and there were no white pieces on either side.
He was definitely going to win!
At this moment, Fang ping had just landed in the area where the White pieces were. His eight pieces had also formed a line, but both sides had been blocked.
However, the next moment, celestial pole was stunned.
“Eat!”
Bang! Bang!
A white piece shattered a black piece that was blocking his way. Fang ping said with a serious face,”I won!”
“……”
The corners of Heaven’s Fate’s mouth twitched. Emperor Xi also looked at Fang ping.
You … You even brought food?
Fang ping said with a serious face,”what’s wrong?” I didn’t say that you can’t eat the chess pieces. In my hometown, you can eat them. Even if you didn’t say it, I thought you could eat them. I win, right?”
“……”
The West Emperor was exhausted.
Heaven’s Fate was also speechless. Here it comes again!
Playing chess with Fang ping was not a game of chess, it was a competition of who could talk.
If the rules were not complete, he would pretend that he did not say anything.
Emperor Xi laughed bitterly and helplessly. He gave up and sighed,””You win. However, it’s not a good thing to take shortcuts again and again, human King.”
Fang ping nodded and said seriously,”is it a good thing? for example, I took a shortcut to cultivate martial arts. After cultivating for three years, I’ve broken through seven. I’ve always felt that there’s a problem. It might explode in the future.”
Celestial pole was speechless.
The West Emperor was speechless.
The father and son were in an inexplicable mood. After cultivating for three years, the celestial pole knew about it, but this was the first time the West Emperor knew about it. At this moment, they were filled with mixed feelings.
What should I say?
Taking shortcuts was wrong!
It was wrong to break seven in three years!
Three years … I slept for three hundred years.
He would often go into seclusion, and thirty to fifty years had passed.
You’ve been cultivating for three years, is that something to be proud of?
The Western Emperor wanted to take a deep breath, but he held it back. He maintained his Emperor’s smile and asked,”what do you want, my young friend? Should he leave, or should he get some treasures before continuing? Let me remind you, if you continue and lose, you won’t be able to leave. “
“And if you play again, you can’t eat, cover the pieces, or place a piece continuously …”
This time, he added many more terms.
Fang ping did not mind. He asked curiously,”what benefits do you have for me?”
“There are some benefits, but of course, you might not mind.” Emperor Xi smiled. However … Every time you win a round, you can ask me a question. As long as I know the answer, I will definitely tell you. “
“Boring!”
Fang ping shook his head.”I’ll continue to play with you if you ask ten questions for a round. Why don’t you play with your son? he’s such a terrible chess player. Sooner or later, you’ll die of anger.”
“Little friend, I still want to play a few more rounds with you. How about three questions a round?”
“Alright!”
Fang ping was easy to talk to. He laughed and said,”by the way, senior, do you have that kind of binding power like the power of convergence?” If you have it, you can give me some of this good stuff too. The beast Emperor had it before, but I killed it too many times. Seeing that if I kill it again, the Asura arena will collapse, I didn’t fight it. “
“Little friend, you’re really …”
Emperor Xi laughed and shook his head. He was speechless.
After a long while, he said,”little friend, don’t think about destroying these checkpoints. It’s useless!” If you hadn’t stopped earlier, you might have encountered some trouble. “
“What kind of trouble?”
“Little friend, if you beat me, I can tell you.”
Fang ping smiled and nodded.
Who didn’t know how to play chess?
Heaven’s Fate looked at Fang ping again, a little expectant. How was Fang ping going to win this time?
Yes, he felt that Fang ping could win!
This guy was too cunning!
Although the old man was also smart, that was only for gentlemen. It might not be useful for villains.
Fang ping was a true villain!
He didn’t even bother to hide it.
This time, Fang ping placed his stone.
After he placed his piece, the West Emperor was just about to place his piece when Fang ping interrupted,”Senior, wait!”
The problem was here!
Heaven’s Fate was looking forward to it. What about you?
The Western Emperor also looked at him with a smile. ‘What are you trying to do now?’
Fang ping pulled the gray cat, who was sitting next to the chessboard, over.”This cat is also one of the candidates this time. In our next session, it should be one of them. Come, big cat, place a piece. Use a white piece.”
“……”
Cang Mao’s face was blank and innocent, but he still obediently started to place his piece.
The Western Emperor’s projection was prepared to have his face Twitch.
If I fall once, you and the cat will fall twice?
What kind of chess game is this!
“I admit defeat!”
Emperor Xi was also straightforward and added,””You and the old cat … No, adding Heaven’s Fate, for every game, only one person or one cat can play!”
The West Emperor had also come to terms with it. ‘I’m going to waste my time with you!’
Let’s see how many ideas you have!
You come once, I’ll block once, blocking until you have no more loopholes to escape from.
However, at this moment, Heaven’s Fate suddenly felt some sympathy. It was not sympathy for his father, nor for Fang ping, but for … The person who came after him!
There was still a loophole in this test.
However … If Fang ping were to seal up all the loopholes, what would they do if the people behind them came?
People like mo Wenjian could still be considered upright gentlemen. They truly relied on time, energy, and schemes …
The few of them had played against Emperor Xi for a short year or so, while the longer ones had spent hundreds of years. They had only won once and emerged from seclusion.
This way … Heaven’s Fate sighed. The people behind him should just play chess with his father and waste time to see if they could seize the opportunity to win.
At this moment, he had already forgotten himself. He had not actually won.
By the time Fang ping was done playing, he would not have a good chance of breaking through.
Fang ping did not care about this.
“Then I’ll ask you three questions first, senior,” he said with a smile.
“You can ask.”
“You said that there would be trouble if we broke through the barrier. What kind of trouble is it?”
Emperor Xi muttered,”although no one has tried it before, the trial is a test. The test is the purpose. It’s not destruction!” If it was really destroyed, this place might break apart, including the collapse of the emptiness realm and the disappearance of the emptiness realm. Someone might even attack some people in the emptiness realm.
Although they’re only illusionary existences, they won’t be too weak. Even if you break eight and nine, you might not be able to gain an advantage. “
Fang Ping’s expression was grave. This place was still quite dangerous.
“Second, who forged the path after the gate of void?”
Emperor Xi’s expression changed when he heard this!
Celestial pole was confused. What did he mean?
At this moment, Emperor Xi’s projection was really surprised. He kept staring at Fang ping and said seriously,”You didn’t break 8%. Even if you did, you might not be able to see the truth! You know more than I can ever imagine!
This old man has some speculations, but I’m not sure.
I don’t know if my main body knows more.
I’m only a fragment of the origin and have taken a part of the Origin’s memory. It doesn’t mean that I know everything about Emperor Xi.
Even so, the fact that you know so much … Is beyond my imagination!”
He was really surprised. Fang Ping’s second question had exceeded his expectations.
“Senior, you can just answer me directly …” Fang ping laughed.
As he spoke, he looked at celestial pole and smiled.”Celestial pole, it’s best if you don’t know about these things. Just cover your ears.”
Before the celestial pole could say anything, Emperor Xi said,””You sealed your Six Senses. You’re weak and you know too much. It’s not a good thing!”
Celestial pole was a little unwilling. He snorted and sealed his Six Senses.
I don’t want to listen anymore!
Seeing this, Emperor Xi said,”there is Dao after the gate of void. Or rather, there was no gate of void in the beginning!” The gate of void was originally proposed by a few emperors and the extreme venerable Emperor to give the Heavenly Kings a chance so that they don’t have to directly reach the top of the Emperor level. “
“You know, almost all the martial artists who became emperors in the past killed a top-notch beginner stage absolute being at the last minute …” Emperor Xi said slowly.
Fang ping nodded.
“Do you know why you want to kill them?” the West Emperor asked in a self-deprecating manner.
“Accumulate aura?”
“No!”
Emperor Xi sighed and said,”the accumulation of momentum is only one point. The other point is that there is still a huge gap between the peak of breaking through eight and the Emperor!” He lacked something, so he had no choice but to do this.
He would kill an absolute beginning stage martial artist and take their Qi, blood, life force, or spiritual sense.
The strongest early-stage martial artists who were killed were all at the peak of breaking-eight, no weaker than us.
This was a life-and-death battle. Victory and defeat depended on luck.
“We’ve succeeded. We’ve killed an ultimate existence. Even if we didn’t kill him, we’ve stripped him of all his essence, energy, and spirit to enrich ourselves.
With the accumulation of two people who had broken through eight levels, they were going to try for the emperor’s path.
Even so, it’s still very dangerous, and it doesn’t mean that it’ll definitely succeed. In the past, it wasn’t just the nine of us who reached this stage. Some of us failed. “
“In the past … We hesitated and wavered over this matter,” Emperor Xi said softly. This was the demonic path … Killing the strongest at the initial stage of martial arts and achieving oneself, this was the demonic path!
However, at that time, the war of ten thousand DAOs had reached its peak, and both sides were like fire and water.
“In the end, we still chose to walk this path and reach the heavens in one step!
The appearance of the gate of void was actually to give the eighth level cultivators some buffer time and help them forge stronger. “
Emperor Xi explained,”everything was for the good. Breaking eight, breaking three gates, and breaking three gates. These people have absorbed a large amount of essence, Qi, and spirit. They can have a stronger Foundation and help them break through to higher realms.”
He didn’t need to kill an absolute beginning stage martial artist to achieve his own achievements.
The original intention was good … But in the end …”
Emperor Xi sighed and said,”after that, there seemed to be some changes. It caused the Dao between the gate of void and the gate of reality to break … There seemed to be some problems with the source.”
At first, we thought it was an accident.
That’s because the great Dao of origins has already been unified there. If there’s a problem with the great Dao, it means that there’s an extremely serious problem!”
“What?”
“The Dao is broken!”
“The emperor’s Dao is broken!” Emperor Xi sighed. Previously, although it was difficult to walk, it did not stop! At that time, we realized that it seemed to be broken. “
Fang Ping’s expression changed.
“We were surprised as well. However, at that moment, the celestial Emperor said that we could try to forge a fake Dao to repair this broken Dao!” Emperor Xi laughed bitterly.
“Later, the Emperor God said that the path of returning to one is difficult to walk. In that case, we can try to build three fake paths to meet the needs of different Warriors, similar to the sovereign Masters of the extreme path.”
“Three?”
“What about the path of energy?” Fang ping asked, surprised.
“Back then, there weren’t many cultivators who walked the path of energy, so we didn’t consider this problem.”
Fang ping nodded.”So, the three roads have been successfully built?”
“Yes, we’ve paid a huge price to connect three Phantom DAOs from the source behind the real gate, which are also the source of energy for The Phantom gate. The energy behind The Phantom gate comes from behind the real gate.
The fake Dao also leads to the origin land behind the door. Actually, if this is the case, this is a good thing. Continuing the great Dao is a great achievement!”
“At that time, who among us who participated wasn’t proud?” Emperor Xi said proudly. When the great Dao was broken, we silently helped to repair it. We repaired the fake Dao so that future martial artists can walk the great Dao of the Emperor instead of having no path to walk!”
Fang ping nodded. This was indeed a great contribution!
It could be said that the original intention of the fake Dao was somewhat similar to the legendary nüwa mending the sky.
These experts had silently repaired the broken great Dao of origins. This was a huge contribution.
However, Fang ping knew that there would be a follow-up. Otherwise, Wang Ruobing would not exist.𝞸𝒱𝓛xt.𝗇𝓔t
“But who would have known that something unexpected happened!” Emperor Xi sighed.
Emperor Xi frowned.”When the fake Dao was first built, no one managed to break through the eighth level. However, later on, Zhen seemed to be about to attack the gate of void. It was also at this time that we discovered some problems.”
Fang Ping’s gaze was a little strange. At that time, the Heavenly King was already preparing to attack the void gate?
This old man was really like a dog!
He even lied to himself that he had only broken through to level 8 after the heaven realm was shattered. Of course, it might be true. After all, according to Emperor Xi, there seemed to be a problem when he was breaking through.
Emperor Xi thought for a moment and said,”actually, I don’t know much. I only know that when the gate of void was broken and the gate of void was broken … The end was not the gate we had imagined.”
What was the purpose of building a Sanjiao gate?
It was to give the Warriors a buffer so that they would not be in great danger when they stepped into the origin land.
But that time, an accident happened. When we were suppressing the gate of the shattered Void, a huge change occurred. The fake Dao seemed to have directly penetrated into the origin land, and not the gate of the origin as we had imagined. “
Emperor Xi frowned and said,”that time, we failed to suppress him. In fact, we were the ones who stopped him from doing so in secret. We forcefully blocked his door and stopped him from breaking further.”
However, the problem was still very serious. Where did the fake path lead to?
How could the fake Dao that was originally built under the sect be directly connected to the origin?
Did some big problem occur during the process of forging the fake Dao?”
Fang ping listened attentively. After a while, the Western Emperor stopped speaking.
“What happened after that?” Fang ping asked hurriedly.
Emperor Xi looked at him and said slowly after a long while,””This old man’s memory ends here.”
“……”
Fang ping almost vomited blood in anger. Without a word, he swung his fist and hit!
I’ve heard so much from you not for the process, but for the result. And you’re telling me that you’ve been eunuch!
Don’t you know that eunuchs can be beaten to death?
Emperor Xi was helpless as well.”I really don’t know. After all, this old man is only a fragment of my memory and not a complete memory. I don’t know how I resolved it after that. The only thing he knew was that there was indeed a problem with the fake Dao behind the gate of void.
It might have been tampered with, and the person who did it shouldn’t be this old man. After all, this old man still knows about what happened before. “
Fang ping snorted.”You’re just putting yourself out of the picture. In that case, the one who did this could be someone else? Do you have any suspects?”
Emperor Xi laughed and said,”we’re both Emperor Gokudo paths. Your suspicions might not be true. Don’t be fooled by illusions.” Therefore, even if this old man has a guess, it’s only my own guess. I won’t tell you and let you be disturbed. “
“Hmph!”
Fang ping said unhappily,”these are only two questions. The third question is the reason for the outbreak of the heaven realm battle. The specific reason.”
“I don’t know. I don’t have any memory of this.”
“Then let’s talk about the one who created the origin.”
“Too much. What do you want to know? you don’t have to ask. This old man can answer one question.”
“Alive or dead?” Fang ping asked indifferently.
“An undying being!”
Emperor Xi’s answer was simple,”he will not die unless his natural source is completely destroyed.”
“Where is he now?”
“I’ve answered all three questions. “
Emperor Xi refused to answer. Instead, he smiled and said,”my young friend, I’ve already told you everything you want to know. If you want to leave with the gray cat, you’ll have to win at least two rounds. If you want to leave with the celestial pole, you’ll have to win at least three rounds. Do you really think you can win three rounds?”
Fang ping said in surprise,”why would I bring celestial pole?!” He’s your son, not my son. At most, I’ll bring the old cat with me. What’s the use of bringing him?”
“If you don’t take him with you, you might not be able to make it to the last stage!” Emperor Xi laughed. The last trial doesn’t require the strength of one person. Although I don’t know the specific process of the test, it’s better to have more people.
“In the past, mo Wen sword might not have really broken through the last level. Before the Dao tree came to me, it had also broken through many levels. However, until now, it has not broken through the last level. It can be seen how difficult it is!
I’m afraid that you’re not alone.
Perhaps someone has discovered the secret behind it and gathered the geniuses and elites of the Three Realms to attempt the final trial together. “
“Dao tree!”
Fang ping suddenly had an answer. He sneered,”What a big move, it’s done by the divine Emperor’s disciples! This time, it was Yi who did this. This meant that they were in cahoots! Your goal is to break through the last level, right?”
“It should be,”
Fang ping frowned.”But the others have broken through so many levels. The possibility of them reaching the last level is not high, right?”
He felt that there was little hope.
“The last stage doesn’t mean that we have to be the last to reach it,” Emperor Xi said with a chuckle.
“What do you mean? It’s also random?”
Fang ping was puzzled. Emperor Xi said slowly,”it’s not random. The last stage. By right, you have to be the last one to attempt it.”
“But …”
Emperor Xi looked at the roof and the outside that he could not see. He mumbled,””The Dao tree might have already found some tricks and secretly linked all the barriers it passed.
Once someone breaks through all the passes, it might be able to gather everyone to the last pass. “
Fang ping looked at him and smiled faintly.”You seem to know quite a lot. Why are you telling me this?”
“Because…I don’t want the Emperor God to succeed!”
“The divine Emperor might be one of the masterminds behind the fake Dao incident!” Emperor Xi whispered. The divine Emperor wanted too much and was too mysterious. He even wanted to surpass that person and become a true Supreme Being.
He created the Dao tree, he took Zhan as his disciple, he did many, many things …
He would never tell us what he did.
He’s the Emperor of the first vindicated Emperor. He’s too mysterious, I …”
“If the divine Emperor was really up to something, our true bodies would have been pinned down long ago.” The Emperor of the West looked at the celestial pole and sighed. There was no Emperor in the Three Realms now, and this might be the result the divine Emperor wanted.
“We have fallen, but the celestial pole has not …”
He felt that Emperor Xi didn’t love him … But he didn’t know that Emperor Xi might not be as indifferent as he thought …”
He was the Western Emperor, but he was also not.
Heaven’s Fate was his son, but it could be said that he wasn ‘t.
At this moment, the projection of the Emperor of the West glanced at the celestial pole with a complicated look. Fang ping saw this and laughed.”So you want me to protect the celestial pole?”
“What do you think, little friend?”
“It’s nothing. You haven’t given me enough benefits. “
The Emperor of the West laughed and thought for a moment before saying,’the celestial pole said that the Western Imperial Palace is still there. Since the Western Imperial Palace is still here, some of the things I left behind may still be here. This child may not have discovered it, or he wouldn’t be in such a miserable state. “
“What?”
“A divine artifact, a Jade bone divine pill …” He said.
“Jade bone divine pill?”
“That’s right. I entered the world behind the door once and obtained some Jade elixir of life. I asked the Emperor God to make three divine elixirs. I gave one to the Emperor God, one to the Emperor of earth, and one for myself. I planned to give it to him when I reached the Heavenly King realm …”
“Is the effect good?”
“Very good. The celestial pole said that Hongkun breaks through eight should be related to this item.”
Fang Ping’s eyes were bright as he looked at the celestial pole. This idiot was still sealing off his Six Senses. Fang ping chuckled and said,”Alright, no problem! I’ve protected the celestial pole, isn’t that protecting his little life? Give me the thing …”
“It’s in the Western Imperial Palace. You can go and get it yourself!”
“However … I won’t give in to the rules of chess!” Emperor Xi laughed. If you want to continue, you have to win three rounds …”
“A simple matter!”
Fang ping was carefree and did not care at all. What was this?
He only won three rounds!
Very soon, Fang ping and Emperor Xi began the third round.
As for celestial pole, he no longer sealed his Six Senses. He wanted to see how Fang ping would win this time.
After the Emperor of the West added a series of conditions, it was indeed a little difficult for Fang ping to win, but it was not difficult for him.
……
The third round began.
The game was still going well at the beginning, but soon, Emperor Xi had a headache!
He had … Lost a few pieces!
As if it was unintentional, the gray cat bit down on a black piece. Fang ping acted as if he did not see it. The Western Emperor smiled bitterly and said,”This counts as an outsider’s participation, right?”
Fang ping laughed,”how can this be considered?” The old cat didn’t place a chess piece, it accidentally ate a chess piece. I didn’t eat it with a chess piece, and senior didn’t say that it couldn’t be done. “
Emperor Xi was speechless.”I admit defeat for this round!”
Adding on the conditions, this time, he directly chased Cang Mao away and didn’t let it cause any trouble. Cang Mao was innocent and he didn’t like to eat it. The scammer made him do it, okay?
This time, Fang ping did not ask any questions. He would think about it after winning three rounds.
……
The fourth round.
“Why did my black pieces turn white?” Emperor Xi could not help but sigh.
“Senior didn’t say that you’re not allowed to change your expression.”
“……”
The West Emperor could not take it anymore. The celestial pole also looked at Fang ping in a new light. This was a new low. This shameless person was indeed extraordinary!
He had won four games in a row!
This fake father of his had been abused so miserably.
……
The fifth round.
The Western Emperor looked at Fang ping with a burning gaze. ‘Continue!’
Let’s see what you’re going to do this time!
He had already added countless conditions into it. You steal, regret, change your expression …
None of these would work!
I’d like to see what other ways you have!
Under Emperor Xi’s slightly dazed gaze, Fang ping stretched out his hand. His fingers were like a brush, drawing multiple grids on the chessboard. Fang ping placed a piece on the grid he drew and said with a calm expression,”Senior didn’t say that the go board can’t be changed. Since you didn’t say anything, then I won.”
“……”
The Western Emperor’s heart was exhausted, and he felt that he would never want to play chess again in his life.
He suspected that if this continued, this kid could still win!
When one encountered a shameless person with many tricks, no matter how perfect the rules were, there would be loopholes that could be exploited. This game of chess was meaningless.
At this moment, Fang ping had already won five rounds in a row!
Just as Fang ping was about to continue, the Emperor of the West suddenly said,””Outsiders are coming … I’ll send you out, you can go to the next level!”
Without giving Fang ping a chance to speak, a strange force swept over.
Fang ping, the gray cat, and Heaven’s Fate were all swept away, disappearing from the chess room in the blink of an eye.
“Don’t … I’m not done playing …”
Fang Ping’s faint voice could be heard. The next moment, a figure appeared. King Kun frowned slightly and muttered,”Fang ping?”
After saying that, he also saw Emperor Xi.
The Western Emperor who was serious!
The Emperor of the West was still rather dignified at this moment. When he saw King Kun, he said,””Nine-piece chain game. If you win, you’ll break through. If you lose, you’ll continue!”
“The rules are as follows,” he said.”You’re not allowed to place a piece continuously, steal a piece, eat a piece, or change the chessboard …”
“……”
King Kun was dumbfounded!
I wasn’t prepared to do that!
You can even do this?
I don’t know!
Also, these rules … Why did they sound a little awkward?
Very quickly, he suddenly thought of something. King Kun’s expression changed slightly as his mouth twitched.””Uncle xihuang met that shameless scoundrel Fang ping?”
“……”
The Western Emperor remained silent.
However, King Kun understood. With a look of sympathy, he said helplessly,””No wonder! This shameless brat has so many tricks up his sleeve. He’s thick-skinned and black-hearted, no wonder Imperial uncle Xi added more rules … Sigh!”
What a pity!
King Kun felt that he was too kind.
So it could be done this way. If he had known this earlier, he would have easily broken through.
Unlike now, the Western Emperor seemed to have been provoked, and he was playing steadily, accurately, and ruthlessly.
After dozens of rounds, King Kun’s head was about to explode. Every time, he was quickly cut down by the Western Emperor!
There was no way to play!
The Western Emperor did not go easy at all. How many rounds had Fang ping won against the Western Emperor?
