Chapter 505: Chapter 194: “Do You Always Play Chess Like This?

“…”

The elder of Bishan Palace, with an expressionless face, gazed at the chessboard before him. After a long silence, he finally looked up and softly said to the Buddhist Ancestor who was in front of him.

“Do you always play chess this way?”

“Hmm.”

The Buddhist Ancestor seemed quite proud of himself. After collecting all the chess pieces into the bag, he smiled and said, “This Xuantian Continent is just like this chessboard.”

“Since I’ve joined the game, I’ve never lost.”

“If I am to make a move, I will exert all my strength to ensure they are unable to turn the tables in this lifetime!”

“Then I shall wait for the good news.”

“Good!”

After taking a deep breath, the elder of Bishan Palace nodded heavily and then stood up to take his leave.

Although he did not agree with the Buddhist Ancestor’s way of playing chess, nor did he approve of the Buddhist sect’s principles, he had to admit that this old fellow truly had some ability.

Joining forces with the Buddhist Ancestor,

they could certainly erase Chen Qiu completely from the Xuantian Continent.

Committing evil acts is just committing evil acts, such as those from the Evil Sect, who slaughter mortals yet openly admit they’re no good people, unlike the Buddhist sect, which uses the guise of leading people to goodness to meddle with people’s minds.

Such methods are more like the tricks of evil demons than those used by the Evil Sect.

…

Meanwhile—

In another part of the Lower Nine Provinces, “Jiazhou.”

Jiazhou is different from other regions; although the spiritual energy here is not as dense as in the central region, it has a few Cave Heaven Blessed Lands with even denser spiritual energy.

Thus, many powers would fight over these blessed lands every year.

Add to that the relatively fierce local customs of Jiazhou, many cultivators here have higher sin values than those in other regions.

“Finally, this day has come for this old man!”

In Jiazhou, atop a Cave Heaven Blessed Land, an old man with a face covered in scars, dressed in a white robe, sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion. He looked toward the outside of the cave dwelling, his eyes brimming with delight.

Just from his appearance alone, one could tell that this person was extremely ruthless.

He was called Zhang Kui.

In the Xuantian Continent, he was also a well-known figure.

On the “Heavenly Dao sin values leaderboard,” he ranked second with 3 billion sin values.

If not for Chen Qiu’s emergence.

He should be in the number one spot.

In the late-stage of Divinity Transformation, before Chen Qiu appeared, 3 billion sin values were already a terrifying number, and it was enough to prove he had blood on his hands.

He had been stuck in the seventh level of the Divinity Transformation realm for many years.

Without making a breakthrough.

And he forcefully suppressed his own cultivation, trying as much as possible not to break through. Not because he couldn’t, but because he knew well.

After achieving Divinity Transformation, one must endure a Heavenly Tribulation with each breakthrough in cultivation.

Each more potent than the last.

Moreover, the tribulation caused by his 3 billion sin values was something he could not withstand. It was almost a certain death situation, which is why he had been seeking a Spiritual Treasure that could reduce the power of the tribulation for all these years.

But even so, he still had little confidence!

Until…

The version “Great Conflict Under Heaven” arrived, introducing the “sin value shop,” where he could entirely expend his sin values.

In doing so, he could not only enhance his foundation significantly, but also reset his sin values to zero, allowing him not to suppress his cultivation anymore and not worry about being turned to ashes by a tribulation induced by 3 billion sin values!

It was truly killing two birds with one stone!

Moreover, he could continue to plunder sin values without worrying about the tribulation. Instead, those plundered values could further strengthen his foundation in the sin value shop.

It could be said that the opening of this sin value shop was simply perfect for someone like him.

Zhang Kui was quite satisfied as he looked for items of interest in the sin value shop. As an Array Repairer, he naturally sought items suitable for his specialization.

Indeed.

Even though he had 3 billion sin values, he was neither an Evil Cultivator nor a Demon Cultivator.

Who says Array Repairers can’t kill?

Moreover, the efficiency with which an Array Repairer can kill is obviously much higher than that of any Evil or Demon Cultivator. Once the array is established, the number of deaths is just a number to him, and all living creatures within the grand array would perish.

Just then—

A disciple entered from outside the cave dwelling, his eyes filled with fear, he softly said.

“Old… Ancestor, the legacy you left behind, ‘Taixu Temple,’ the Sect Master has been kidnapped.”

“Kidnapped?”

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

A fierce light flashed in Zhang Kui’s eyes. He immediately rose from the meditation cushion, grabbed the dust whisk from the ground next to him, and headed towards the outside of the cave dwelling, saying, “Damn it, I really have lived too long to encounter such novelties.”

“It’s my first time seeing a Sect Master being kidnapped.”

“Who’s so bold?”

“They are simply seeking death!”

“Don’t they know that ‘Taixu Temple’ is the legacy left by Zhang Kui, the second most evil person on the Xuantian Continent? Don’t they know that my 3 billion sin values were acquired by killing countless living creatures? Don’t they know how heartless and ruthless I am?”

“That…”

The kneeling disciple outside the cave dwelling buried his head in the ground, his voice trembling as he said, “That person claims to be Chen Qiu, Sect Master of Chao Tian Sect, with an Early Stage of Divinity Transformation cultivation. He was accompanied by a member of the Dragon Clan who’s at the Peak of Divinity Transformation.”

“The Sect Master of Taixu Temple, who is also at the Early Stage of Divinity Transformation, had just initiated his ‘Instant Formation’ domain when he was suppressed into oblivion.”

“Now, with Taixu Temple left without a leader, it has descended into chaos. We implore the Ancestor to lend us your aid!”

“…”

Having just risen from his meditation cushion and ready to step out of the cave dwelling, Zhang Kui momentarily stiffened when he heard the name Chen Qiu, Sect Master of Chao Tian Sect. He then emotionlessly retreated a few steps and once again sat on the cushion, casually saying.
