My wife is a passerby villain

Chapter 209 Secret Realm Chess Game
The golden scorpion turned into a black chess piece and landed on the chessboard with an extremely ethereal 'da' sound.

And the strong light of its chessboard allows Liu Yuying to see its outline clearly.

As for the practitioners next to her, they were already speechless after being shocked by this magnificent spectacle.

As time passed, the early morning had quietly risen, and the golden chessboard that covered the entire night gradually faded away without a trace.

"That... what is it?" The thin boy still looked up, but now he only saw the blue sky in his eyes.

After a while, Ning Xiang woke up and slowly opened his eyes.

He felt a little confused, but the eyes of the formation had indeed been refined and recognized by him.

The self who was extremely weak and lacking in spiritual power before had recovered and even had abundant spiritual power.

Even the meridians that had been burned and damaged became more transparent, as if Ren Du's second meridian had been opened.

Ning Xiang was immersed in this wonderful feeling carefully, and at this moment, he suddenly noticed an uncontrollable throbbing in his dantian.

"This is..." Ning Xiang immediately closed his eyes tightly, and began to practice Lingyang exercises, and as the spiritual power in his body was drawn and flowed, he started to practice on the spot.

At the same time, the green scorpion in Ning Xiang's sea of ​​energy began to shrink gradually, overflowing with spiritual power for his spirit master to absorb.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Ning Xiang was drenched in blood and sweat, his body trembling uncontrollably, and then he opened his eyes suddenly.

"I've stepped into the E-level realm!" Ning Xiang breathed violently, and his originally depressed tone was now full of excitement.

He suddenly seemed to have experienced a feeling of being reborn.

Then Ning Xiang slowly raised his left hand, feeling the surge of spiritual power in his meridians and the stability of his sea of ​​energy, his excited mood was a little hard to express.

Is this the cultivation base of the E-level realm... It really is extraordinary.

Although I can barely have an E-level critical state by relying on overdrawn skills, I have to do my best all the time.

However, compared with the real E-level environment, it is actually a world of difference.

Last night, the F-level self had to risk his life to use the power of the so-called E-level... But for the real E-level self now, I am afraid it is just a more serious method.

And when Ning Xiang was distracted, Liu Yuying couldn't help asking.

"Then, can we leave the secret realm now?"

She couldn't understand the realm Ning Xiang just said at all, all she cared about was when she could go home.

"I'm really sorry... I was a little excited just now." Ning Xiang took a deep breath to calm himself down for a moment, and then began to try to communicate with the intelligent eyes in his sea of ​​energy.

The way of communication is not language, but some kind of mysterious feeling.

But Ning Xiang frowned quickly, and then said with some embarrassment: "This array of eyes can't control this secret realm, it can control it..."

After hesitating for a moment, Ning Xiang swept his hands across the yellow sand in front of him, and then the sand pile in front of him trembled, as if several pens were drawing in the gravel at the same time, and finally outlined the chessboard.

And there was a boy next to him, after seeing Ning Xiang's tricks, he was a little dazed.

Before that, he had only seen Ning Xiang take out objects out of thin air, and the saber that was full of gaps and could emit a faint light. These can actually be done with practical magic, and the visual impact is not obvious.

As for the battle last night, because of the low visibility caused by the yellow sand all over the sky, he could barely see the faint flames in the distance.

So this is the first time he has experienced the 'spiritual recovery' so intuitively.

As the chessboard took shape, others soon discovered that it was very similar to the magnificent golden web in the night just now.

Ning Xiang waved his hand again, using depressions and protrusions to represent black and white, appearing in the sand table.

"Is this a chessboard?" Xue Qi thought it looked like a chessboard when she looked up at it just now, but looking carefully now, it is simply a chessboard.

"But Go or backgammon?" Xue Qi suddenly became a little confused.

"19 horizontal and vertical lines, a total of 361 points, 9 star positions, and Tianyuan in the middle," Lu Jimo squatted opposite Xue Qi, carefully looking at the chessboard in the desert and explained, "This is a standard Go board."

Then Lu Jimo raised his head and asked with some doubts: "Aren't these things common sense?"

Although he said this, he still felt that this chess game was awkward.

If this is a Go board...he doesn't quite understand the number of white chess pieces, but why does this black chess play like backgammon?

Weiqi pays attention to enclosing land and occupying eyes, and there is a saying of "grass belly with golden horn and silver edge", but this black chess has a few moves that are slightly close to the center.

"Ha, is this common sense?" Xue Qi frowned immediately after hearing this, and then asked with some disgust: "But what does this thing have to do with the secret realm?"

"Is it because of this game that we have defeated the opponent and can't go back?"

After thinking for a moment, Ning Xiang explained: "After I subdued this array of eyes, although I can't control the secret realm, it seems that there is a subtle connection."

When he said this, he pressed his finger on the 'star position' in the lower left corner of the chessboard, and then formed a depression like a chess piece.

Seeing Ning Xiang's actions, Xue Qi still couldn't understand, but for most of the boys present, they had guesses in an instant.

They have played a lot of various online, STEAM, and PC games. This level of decryption is a common-sense strategy in the game.

"That sand scorpion is basically a chess piece, right? The real secret realm is actually this chessboard?" A boy first suggested.

"And every time we kill this kind of monster, we can play chess on the chessboard."

"If we want to leave the secret realm safely, we have to kill many giant scorpions, and then win this game of chess?"

Following the boy's speculation, all kinds of speculations about how to conquer the secret realm also emerged, and they became more and more outrageous, even involving the infinite horror of the space of the main god.

In the end, Ning Xiang managed to drag back these unconstrained imaginations.

"The white chess seems to be the secret realm itself," Ning Xiang frowned and explained, "And I can't control the landing of the chess pieces."

"So... the secret world we are in is probably the Go board itself."

"Each 'Sand Scorpion' will become our black chess piece after being defeated, and the real solution to the secret realm is probably to win this game of Go."

After Ning Xiang finished her conjecture, Liu Yuying's shoulders trembled a little, and her chest was breathing violently and she couldn't breathe.

She still couldn't understand, but she knew that she couldn't go back.

Afterwards, Liu Yuying's eyes became more and more blurred, and her figure became a little unsteady.

Inexplicably got involved, even almost died several times.

It's true...almost died!
In the past, she never thought about death and always felt that it was far away from her.

But now, she persisted for so long, but she still couldn't go back.

Why... What do these things have to do with me! ! !

"Ugh……"

Liu Yuying looked at the mineral water that suddenly appeared in front of her, her thoughts were interrupted, she froze in place.

"Drink some water to restore your strength, and you have to hurry on your way later." Holding an unopened bottle of mineral water, Yin Hang handed it to her and said, "Otherwise, what else can I do?"

"I'm afraid it will take some time for this journey before I can go home."

Yin Hang remembered that Liu Yuying persuaded himself in this way at the beginning, and then he saw her tears slowly running across her dusty cheeks.

After a while, Yin Hang dug out some other food from his hiking bag and distributed it to other people in the team, and then took some nutritious milk and bread to feed the little girl.

Because she was very timid, she only dared to follow around Yin Hang, quietly holding his cuffs or the corners of his clothes, and in order to take care of her, Yin Hang always sat a little far away from other people when eating.

As for the snacks she and Yin Hang used to exchange, he also silently stuffed them into his pocket.

What Ning Xiang said was just a guess, not because he could only understand the reason for communicating with the "Zhenyan", but because the "Zhenyan" knew little about it.

In the end the team came to tentative conclusions.

The real eye of the formation should be this chess game. If you want to leave the secret realm, you must win this chess game.

This also explains why it is difficult for them to see other practitioners, because the area of ​​this secret realm is so vast that it is unimaginable.

As for what to do next...

"Let's meet up with other people first," Ning Xiang suggested: "The follow-up practitioners all brought a large amount of supplies when they entered the secret realm, and they were well prepared."

"And if we stay here, with the scale of this chessboard, Army Aviation's supplies will definitely not be able to hold on."

"If our speculation is correct, the place where the few black chess pieces are relatively concentrated should be the place where other practitioners gather."

"So let's head towards the positions of those black flags first."

After Ning Xiang finished speaking, he immediately got everyone's approval.

If judging from the chessboard in the night at that time, then it should be going north by east now.

This is almost completely opposite to the direction they rushed to the oasis before.

"Let me just say that 'master' is not reliable at all!" Lu Jimo said again confidently.

"The 'master' mentioned the location of the oasis, and now we are going to find the gathering place!" Xue Qi glared at him and cursed: "Can you stop changing the concept secretly!"

And when they finished eating the food provided by Yin Hang, before setting off, they looked at the vast desert to the north and east, feeling a little worried.

They almost came in that direction, and the furthest one traveled for eight days, but now they have to go back.

So, can they really walk to the so-called gathering place alive?

……

"Whoa whoa whoa-"

When flying over the top of the sand dunes, Xue Qi leaned her slender body tightly next to the fat Lu Jimo, shaking with fright.

Yin Hang, as a boy with "fair" physical strength, sat on the back edge of the mat, holding tightly in his arms the little girl who was also shivering with fright.

And when they rushed to the top of the dune again, Xue Qi's screams came out in advance.

"Wow wow wow—"

It's not that she's timid.

Ning Xiang stepped on his saber to ride the wind and waves ahead, while they sat on the heat pad, wrapped in the canvas of the tent, and then sprinted through the desert like a motorboat, and the speed was nearly 60 kilometers per hour.

"Brother Ning, are you already in the E-level realm?" A boy who is also a cultivator called out curiously against the strong wind.

Ning Xiang stepped on the badly damaged saber and galloped around them with his hands behind his back. When he heard someone calling him, he leaned over and nodded, "Yes."

In fact, he felt that he not only possessed E(-)-level cultivation now, as long as he practiced quietly for a few days, he could officially step into the E-level realm.

And after having an E-level cultivation base, that is an undoubted cultivator.

Ning Xiang, who has practiced for a long time, naturally knows how difficult the path of cultivation is. Considering his talent, every step is a cliff to climb.

But this opportunity in the secret realm allowed him to be promoted almost across the ranks, and even penetrated his meridians, which is really unimaginable.

Before that, he even thought that he was going to die here, but in the blink of an eye, he was reborn like Nirvana.

"Congratulations." The boy who spoke to him was immediately fascinated.

In his eyes, with Ning Xiang's supernatural powers now, he is really no different from the Xian family.

And in this world, who doesn't want to cultivate immortality?
Wearing Taoist robes and flying with a sword is simply his dream.

And this is Ning Xiang's improvement after refining the formation eyes, and there are more than 300 similar formation eyes in the entire secret realm!

Then is it possible for me to recognize the master and refine a formation eye?
Even... can refine the eyes of this secret realm!

Liu Yuying couldn't understand. She hugged her legs and huddled in the middle of the heating pad, because it was difficult for her to sit still with her ordinary girl's physique. Then she weakly raised her head and asked Yin Hang: "Cultivation of immortals is... Alchemy?"

Liu Yuying ate some chocolates, and she regained some energy. Coupled with Yin Hang's "what else can I do?", she couldn't escape from reality anymore.

But fortunately, with their current driving speed, they no longer need to be so desperate to drive in the desert.

In fact, with Ning Xiang's E-level realm, it is impossible to achieve such a wanton level.

But after he subdued the green scorpion eyes, he found that he could directly control the desert like drawing a chessboard.

It's a pity that the range is not so wide and the strength is relatively low, but it can simulate the fluidity of water, and it is still possible to surf in the desert.

After Yin Hang thought about it for a while, he tried to explain: "It's similar to those soaps... well, in those TV dramas, there are male protagonists with superpowers."

"Kim Soo-hyun?!" Liu Yuying suddenly raised her head and asked in surprise.

"Uh... probably?" Yin Hang was a little embarrassed because he didn't know who Han Xiuxian was.

"The kind that can pause time and move instantly," Liu Yuying hurriedly asked, "Is it even a superpower that can bring the dead back to life?"

Yin Hang suddenly regretted giving this example, but he still tried his best to explain: "Bringing the dead back to life may not be possible, but many terminal illnesses... can definitely be cured."
