Chapter 685: Life Is Like a Chess Piece (2)

The mechanical bear first roared at the sky and punched its chest twice. Then, it opened its mouth and started to whine towards the sky.
All of a sudden, he swallowed the energy that was brewing in the bear’s mouth. The giant mechanical bear, which was originally huge, had its upper body enlarged by two points.
Immediately after, the mechanical bear leaped into the sky and crashed into a golden-armored puppet in front of him.
The golden-armored puppet took a defensive stance. It held a round shield in its hand and stood on the chessboard with its feet in front and back, waiting for the attack to arrive.
The collision came as expected. After a loud bang, the chessboard shattered into pieces.
There were black and gold. Both sides had actually died together in the collision just now.
However, this chessboard was not occupied by Li Yuanqing.
Yun Tian frowned and looked at Li Yuanqing with some displeasure.”Brat, I was just giving you face and testing you a little. You actually used such a despicable move. Do you think you can win against me with such a despicable move?”
“I’m afraid you don’t care what move I use.”
Li Yuanqing, on the other hand, had an indifferent look, which made Yun Tian even more furious.
“Alright, since you want to use this method to win, then I won’t waste any more time with you!”
As soon as Yun Tian finished speaking, another bolt of lightning struck the chessboard.
Originally, the first round of his attack was still the Golden Armor Guards rolling out the four puppets.
However, if this continued, Li Yuanqing would have to exchange eight golems for one of his, leaving him with only four. This would be a huge loss.
Therefore, Yun Tian did not intend to continue wasting time like this. He directly began to attack.
After this signal was sent out, Chai Ming, who was originally sitting in the middle, suddenly felt his body move uncontrollably.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Li Jing looked at Chai Ming worriedly. The two of them were being held hostage on the altar and treated as puppets. They were already suffering, and the explosion just now made them very anxious.
If the other party used that kind of explosive method to directly use it on the two of them, even if they didn’t die here, they would still be skinned.
Chai Ming didn’t have time to speak before his body stood up uncontrollably. The dazzling scepter in his hand was also raised high into the sky.
The blue gemstone on the scepter kept echoing with the power in the sky.
A bolt of lightning took shape in the sky, forming a huge vortex that enveloped Liu Wen’s head.
Liu Wen reached out with his hand, and a screen of light suddenly appeared in the fortress under his feet.
The light curtain continued to rise, and finally, with the tip of the fortress where the three of them were located as the base, it formed a huge turtle shell full of patterns, enveloping the three of them.
The tortoiseshell was covered in patterns, and there was an endless supply of energy from below. The strength of the light curtain was still increasing.
The turtle shell had just formed when the lightning bolt above his head finally fell along with the scepter in Chai Ming’s hand.
A huge bolt of lightning that was more than a hundred feet thick connected heaven and earth and struck the turtle shell from the clouds, causing the entire chessboard to tremble.
The scattered lightning arcs continued to move around the chessboard and landed in the corner, destroying more than ten of Li Yuanqing’s puppets.
A burnt smell spread out from the chessboard.
Chai Ming stared at the scene before him with his mouth agape. His face was pale and his hands were trembling.
Those young people were able to reach this step at such a young age. Their future was definitely limitless.
These were the most elite geniuses of the entire human race. He did not expect them to actually die in his hands.
Although he didn’t do it intentionally, he was still an accomplice when he was used as a spear.
Chai Ming’s lips kept trembling. He could not forgive himself for doing such a destructive blow.
However, at this moment, the smoke on the chessboard in front of them dissipated, revealing the scene inside.
Liu Wen slowly stood up. The turtle shell above his head cracked and shattered into pieces, falling down and turning into a rain of light. This was the end of the array’s life.
Although this collision had directly shattered the tortoiseshell array, it had at least saved their lives.
Chai Ming widened his eyes in disbelief.
He had never seen such a powerful thunderbolt in his life.
He thought that everyone he knew would be smashed into pieces after encountering such an impact.
However, he did not expect these three kids to be fine and still alive.
“You guys…”
Chai Ming wanted to say something, but his body involuntarily retreated.
Above the clouds, Yun Tian looked at Li Yuanqing with a livid expression.
“You’re quite willing. Your tortoiseshell formation is made of materials that are thousands of years old. There is also the core of a ten-thousand-year-old black tortoise. This kind of work is not something that ordinary people can take out. Who are you?”
“It doesn’t matter who I am. I hope Young Master doesn’t forget our agreement.”
Yun Tian frowned and said unhappily,”Do you think 1 want to go back on my word?”
“Young Master Yun Tian is from a prestigious sect, how could he go back on his word? I was just giving you a slight reminder. 1 didn’t mean it that way.”
Yun Tian snorted coldly and looked at Li Yuanqing.”You’re getting more and more interesting. You’re clearly from the immortal world, but you have the aura of a lower realm. He had so many resources in his hands, yet he was so extravagant and wasteful. Creating such a tortoiseshell formation was useless for no reason.”
Yun Tian waved his hand, and a fragment appeared in his hand.
He crushed the shards between his fingers, brought them to his nose, and sniffed them.
A moment later, he opened his eyes in realization.
“I see. Are you from the Immortal World or not? If you came in first, why didn’t you have such a simple glue? Why did you waste such a good material?”
Li Yuanqing’s evaluation of this fellow increased a little. Looking at this fellow’s cynical appearance, he was actually very meticulous. With just a glance, he was able to grasp the things in his hands firmly.
In the Immortal World, those large sects would have more basic materials for arrays.
Many of their array masters would often use the more advanced bases in the immortal world when making arrays, as well as the so-called glue he mentioned.
This special glue could perfectly adhere the attributes of each material together without any rejection, allowing their strength to be perfectly displayed.
If these materials were forcefully put together without this binding agent, many of them would have a repulsive effect, resulting in a greatly reduced effect.
However, this glue was an extremely rare item. Ordinary array formation sects treated it as a treasure. Only their own disciples could apply for it. Li Yuanqing had yet to find a way to obtain it.
“I’m afraid it’s not up to you to worry about where 1 came from.”
As soon as Li Yuanqing finished speaking, Liu Wen and the other two steadied themselves.
The three of them took out their array flags and mobilized the thirty-two puppets among the eight chessboards gathered in the middle.
The thirty-two puppets slowly gathered in the middle and gradually turned into a huge giant with a heavy sword in his hand.
The giant stepped out from Liu Wen’s head and arrived at the riverside.
Without hesitation, he waved the sword in his hand and slashed forward.
The thick and heavy sword, with its extremely blunt blade, smashed heavily onto the three golden armored guards who were blocking in front.
Although the three golden-armored guards resisted, they were still sent flying and landed outside the chessboard. Their bodies fell apart, and the light in their eyes extinguished..
