‘Gaming console?’

‘The Heavenly Spiritual Treasure was just a gaming console to the expert?’

Gu Xirou and the others did not dare to say or ask anything. They could only quietly go along with it at the side.

They watched as Li Nianfan messed with it.

The awesome Heavenly Spiritual Treasure did not dare to resist either. It let Li Nianfan mess with it, and it had to cooperate with shining lights.

‘Life is too hard.’

Li Nianfan looked at Pei An and asked, “Oh yeah, how do you play this?”

‘How to…play?’

‘The expert love to joke around.’

‘How would I dare to play with it?’

Pei An pursed his lips. He carefully chose his words and said, “Play by arrangement. Yeah, there are a lot of arrangement methods in it.”

“I get it, no wonder it’s familiar to me.”

Li Nianfan instantly understood it. “It’s like Rubik’s Cube, you can arrange it however you want as long as you have the skills.”

He got it. He simply swiped on the compass disk and it shined. Soon, a fierce tiger made from lights appeared on the compass disk.

‘That…’

Pei An looked at the fierce tiger and jolted. They had cold sweat all over.

A ferocious aura knocked them in the face, it was wild.

The spell pattern was a tiger. Even powerful Immortals would be trapped to death.

‘The expert…just created an ultimate spell pattern?’

‘So casually?’

“Yo, how interesting. Looks lively. Let me try a dragon.”

Li Nianfan touched the disk again. He created a Rainbow Dragon. The dragon looked fierce like it was about to fly out from the disk.

Yikes—

‘This…’

The spell pattern became a dragon!

Golden Immortals would be jealous of that level of technique.

It also meant that the expert was not a threat to them. Otherwise, he would have simply destroyed their realm with ease.

“Fun. Let’s do a Double Dragon Playing Fireball.”

“Let’s do a Guanyin Sitting on Lotus.”

“Oh yeah, how about a Ten Thousand Swords Return to Sect?”

The three of them had their mouths wide opened. They were dumbfounded as they watched the changes of the spell patterns. They completely lost their minds.

Their hair stood on end and they could not breathe. They were as stiff as statues.

Any of those spell patterns would be the ultimate killer weapon. It was enough to let countless Immortals change their minds and beg for mercy. He showed and presented them one by one.

Moreover, they had to resist it with all their might even though the expert was not threatening them. The spell patterns were so powerful that they were under enormous pressure.

It was like dancing with death. They would not die but they were truly afraid!

Pei An went blank. He was dumbfounded.

He thought he was knowledgeable of spell patterns. He also sneakily tried to use the Thousand Spell Disk. However, the disk ignored him. The simplest spell pattern of the disk made him dizzy. He did not know where to start.

‘Is it so simple for the expert?’

‘He only stroke it a few times and it works?’

‘My eyes learned it but my hands didn’t! Life is so hard.’

His mind was buzzing. He did not understand it.

‘No way, I’m such a weak chicken. Why am I still alive? I don’t deserve to.’

“Huh?”

Li Nianfan suddenly arched his eyebrow. When he was arranging the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Sect, there were a lot of shiny light swords but they started to flicker. Some of it was not as bright.

“There seems to be something wrong with the gaming console?”

“Something wrong?” Pei An and the others panicked. They asked quaveringly, “Is… Is it?”

Li Nianfan carefully observed the gaming console. He flipped it around and said, “Maybe. Some of the wood parts seem to be broken, causing it to have lesser variations. I’ll fix it when I have the chance, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

He realized the gaming console was old and it seemed to be pieced together. Some of the parts were missing but fortunately the materials were nothing special, so he could patch it up with wood.

‘Too little variations in the Thousand Spell Disk?’

‘Fix it?’

‘Can a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure be fixed?’

Thankfully, they were all used to it. They still looked calm on the surface with a smile.

Gu Xirou licked her dry lips and said, “Um, Mr. Li. We didn’t know that…the gaming console is broken. We’re very sorry about that.”

Li Nianfan hurriedly shrugged it off. “No worries. This thing is interesting, absolutely entertaining. I like it a lot, thank you so much.”

‘As long as you like it.’

Everyone instantly sighed in relief. No matter what, as long as the expert liked it, it was great news.

Li Nianfan suddenly smiled. He said, “I just invented a new game and you all brought me a gaming console. What a coincidence.”

The three of them looked at the chessboard. They were instantly curious.

It was not much at first sight. However, on a closer look, it was fresh and entertaining. It was as if the chessboard had the Answer, they felt like they were looking at a small universe.

Most importantly, the chessboard and the chess pieces were made from Spiritual Plant. It was hand-crafted by the expert. They felt like it was holy from the looks of it.

The chessboard and the chess pieces might be as valuable as the Thousand Spell Disk.

It was just a game that the expert invented because he was bored.

‘Powerful’ was not good enough to describe the expert.

Pei An asked, “Excuse me, Mr. Li. What game is this?”

“This game is named Xiangqi. The rules are extremely simple.” Li Nianfan smiled and explained the rules of Xiangqi.

The rules were simple. They were Immortals so they naturally understood it. They thought it was very interesting.

Li Nianfan noticed that everyone wanted to try it so he invited, “Anyone wants to give it a go?”

Pei An thought about it and rubbed his hands. He said, “I should try it.”

Li Nianfan welcomed him, “You’re on the red side. You go first, please make your move.”

“Oh, alright.”

Pei An excitedly looked at the chessboard.

He widened his eyes on sight as he flinched. He could not help but get goosebumps.

He did not feel much as an observer. However, once he was the player, the chessboard felt like a neverending swirl. An endless powerful aura knocked him in the face, his mind instantly went blank.

His surroundings had changed when he woke up again.

He was no longer at the four-part architecture. He levitated in mid-air with nothing around him. He was in a muddled state.

He looked down.

He saw a chessboard. A huge chessboard!

The Xiangqi was tidy and still looked the same, but it was very overwhelming for him.

He was at the position of The General.

 At that moment, he thought to himself, ‘Set an array of formation with the soldiers and deploy troops to save The General.’

It was a straightforward sight. There was nothing there except for the chessboard. However, Pei An lost focus.

He was astounded by the majestic sight.

‘This isn’t a chess game, this is a spell pattern!’

The chess pieces they moved were to form the spell pattern. The two sides were competing for a better spell pattern.

‘So deep, so incredible.’

He felt like a cell in a droplet of water and the droplet of water was in an ocean. He was insignificant at the chess game.

He already started to sweat before he began the move. He looked around with doubt and confusion.

‘What should I do to be able to manipulate such a profound spell pattern?!’

He finally calmed down and clenched his jaw. He started to make his move.

He felt utterly embarrassed of himself because of the profound chess game. He also felt a strong sense of danger. Therefore, his first reaction was to protect The General.

He started to move. The spell pattern changed. His first move was to defend The General with The Advisor.

Li Nianfan was baffled. He looked like he was in disbelief.

‘Although you’re a beginner, you’re not so dumb, right? Maybe this is how an Immortal plays chess? Is this a cool strategy?’

Li Nianfan quickly made the next move without hesitation.

Pei An felt the powerful aura of the changing realm. He was more uneasy.

Therefore, he took the defense route again. He moved The Elephant in front of The General.

Li Nianfan did not understand his moves. Therefore, he was more careful. He defeated Pei An in eleven moves.

Pei An finally snapped out of it. He was soaked in cold sweat. The hand he was using to play chess was shaking. He said in a hoarse voice, “I lost.”

He was still tensed. He felt a complex emotion.

He was agitated, excited, scared, respectful, nervous, and embarrassed. He felt an explosion of emotions.

It was as if an ordinary man suddenly encountered an Immortal and got advice from the Immortal. Words could not describe how he felt, it was like looking up to a high mountain. He was kind of disappointed in himself.

Li Nianfan noticed how disappointed Pei An looked. He asked, “Again?”

Pei An was pleasantly surprised. He asked in a trembling voice, “Can… Can I? I feel like my chess skills are weak.”
