The two people playing chess in the center of the formation turned their faces with no facial features.
Mu Longlong screamed strangely, but luckily Jiang Xinyi was hanging him up so he didn't fall to the ground.
It was a faceless ghost who captured the young him into the ghost realm. This time, his inner demons really broke out and he was so frightened that he lost his mind.
Wei Jinzhao had already raised his sleeves to block Mei Xueyi behind him.
One in black and one in white.
The face has no facial features.
Isn’t this the person who keeps the boundary between life and death? Are the boundary keepers the Immortal Emperor and Demon Lord from thousands of years ago? Why are the guardians here
Mei Xueyi pinched her palms unconsciously, her heart was pounding, her scalp was tense, and her mind was filled with chaotic thoughts.
But what we need to worry about now is not old secrets, but...the other party has discovered them!
"Your Majesty..." Mei Xueyi bared her teeth slightly, "Can you beat me?"
He smiled softly and looked sternly.
He raised his wide sleeves and pushed her back: "Watch."
She squeezed her palms tighter.
Taking a step forward, Wei Jinchao suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked sideways, and said in a helpless and indulgent tone: "Let go."
Mei Xueyi looked down and saw that her hands had grasped his clothes at some point, pinching her palms through the fabric, causing pain and itching.
She let go of her hand in confusion.
He raised his feet to leave, hesitated for a moment, then suddenly turned around and hugged her into his arms, as strong as hugging a war horse. He lowered his head and placed a heavy kiss on her smooth forehead, with a clear and loud voice.
Mei Xueyi felt dizzy from his wild kiss. In a daze, overlapping images appeared before her eyes again.
In the previous life, Wei Jinchao always liked to say goodbye to her like this. For him at that time, going to court was more troublesome and required courage than going to the battlefield, so before going to court every day, he would always hug her tightly like this and kiss her hard. face.
With some inexplicable, teeth-gnashing hatred. He was probably jealous that she could still go back to the bed and lie down.
Then the war began.
No one is born with everything, and he grows up day by day under the baptism of war.
She and he were together less and less often, and every time they met, he would become more determined and stronger.
But the kiss on her forehead became lighter and lighter. On the eve of the battle at Jiawuguan, his lips were silently pressed against her forehead. He sighed lowly and said, 'Someone is going to die again.' Mei Xueyi knew that he was missing the trivial and annoying things in the court in the past.
No one likes to be bored and trivial, but in fact, "boredom" is actually a very luxurious emotion, because it means that the years are quiet and peaceful.
Scenes of old feelings came to mind, and Mei Xueyi's heart swayed as she watched one 'Wei Jinchao' after another merge into the person in front of her. His body was no longer strong, and his smile was no longer bright and burning, but the resounding kiss he placed on her forehead was still the same as before.
The tip of her heart was beating hard. When she looked up at him, he was already facing the black and white duo with a cough and a smile.
Mei Xueyi quickly came to her senses and stared at his back nervously.
In his previous life, he fought against the Guardian of Life and Death and seriously injured Hei, but he himself was silent for many years and never left the netherworld to look for her again. In other words, his strength is greater than that of one boundary keeper, but he is no match for two people working together.
Even if he could avoid many detours when he re-cultivated the ghost path in this life, he would still be missing out on years of accumulation. In addition, he had to keep his physical body to accompany her, so his practice would naturally be subject to many restrictions.
Who would have thought that he would encounter the most unlikely enemy in the most unlikely place.
Mei Xueyi clenched her hands subconsciously, and then quickly released them. In the two lifetimes combined, I have never been as nervous as I am now.
He had come within ten feet.
If he fights with the boundary guardian, his mortal body will be scrapped. Finally, the two of them are connected, but they can no longer relive the happiness of adults.
It's really fate that makes people happy.
Mei Xueyi stared at his back quietly, adjusting her body to the tightest fighting state.
When he makes a move, she will wait for the opportunity to use her whirlpool magic to suck these two guys.
Knees slightly bent, ready to strike.
Wei Jinchao faced those two bare faces and walked closer.
The atmosphere was tense and critical.
"Playing chess?" Wei Jinchao sneered, his tone full of disdain, "You guys, you can't."
Mei Xueyi: "???" Isn't it an earth-shattering battle
The two faceless men were also stunned.
After a while, the man in white slapped the stone table and yelled: "You go ahead, go ahead! You yellow-haired boy, you don't know the heights of heaven and earth!"
Wei Jinzhao said lazily: "I am alone, but you two are."
"Who are you looking down on!" Bai Yi's tone changed, "I can beat you by myself, it's more than enough!"
Wei Jinchao raised the left corner of his lips slightly and smiled.
The meaning of ridicule is far better than a thousand words.
Bai Yi was so angry that he slapped the table: "Come on, come on!"
He raised his hand and grabbed it, pinching out an earth-yellow chess piece from the void, and it landed in the center of the chessboard with a 'snap'.
Mei Xueyi didn't need to take a closer look to know that this was a higher level ability than Wenxu's 'turning emptiness into reality' - creating something out of nothing.
This is not right. The guardians of the realm of life and death are not humans, but ghosts in the netherworld. They also use ghost wind and ghost fire. How can they perform Taoist or demonic arts
She narrowed her eyes slightly and moved closer quietly.
"Boy, it's your turn." The white-clothed guardian raised his chin to the sky arrogantly.
Wei Jinchao slowly took out the spirit stone from the Qiankun bag to replace the chess pieces, twisted the chess pieces with his long fingers, and placed them casually.
"Hey, you're just going to play chess with me with this rag?!" If the man in white had eyebrows, they would probably fly to the top of his forehead.
He raised his hand, pulled it into the void, and pulled out another terrifying chess piece - if such a 'chess piece' were thrown out, it would be enough to destroy most of the plain.
He raised his chin at Wei Jinchao as if to demonstrate.
Wei Jinchao sighed lightly: "It's better to have bad chess pieces than bad chess skills."
The man in white laughed strangely, supported the stone table, and put his face without facial features over the center line: "The loser will eat all the chess pieces."
Wei Jinchao opened his thin lips slightly, provocatively revealing the tips of his teeth with a sharp cold light, and knocked them up and down gently.
"What's so great about having teeth?" the man in white screamed strangely.
Wei Jinchao mocked lightly: "It's better than a toothless person."
"Shuzi! Shuzi!" The man in white tilted his body angrily, put his feet up on the stone table, and took a photo of it, "You look good!"
Wei Jinchao looked at the chess game coldly and continued to take out the spiritual stone Luozi from the Qiankun bag.
The two played quickly, and soon half of the chessboard was covered.
Seeing that Wei Jinchao had the situation under control, Mei Xueyi walked to stand behind him, gently touched his shoulders with her hands, and massaged his shoulders and arms tenderly.
The man in white was so envious that he knocked on his shoulder: "Hey, hey, who is that? Be more conscious!"
The man in black ignored him at all.
On the chess table, the fighting was fierce.
After all, these two black and white people have been playing chess here for ten thousand years. I thought that a mere yellow-haired boy couldn't jump around for a few rounds, but I didn't expect that Wei Jinzhao actually led the trend step by step, and the man in white was about to lose when he saw it.
He was a little unable to sit still. On his face without facial features, his vivid eyes kept glancing at Wei Jinchao's expression.
"Boy, if I hadn't accidentally stumbled fifty-four steps ago..."
Wei Jinchao said in a gentle voice: "What about this game of chess?"
The faceless man in white kept stealing glances at him: "If there's a draw, you have to capture the opponent's pieces... I don't want to embarrass you."
"It's not difficult." Wei Jinchao said.
"Hiss—" the man in white leaned back, "You boy, that's true! Okay! Then since you sincerely want to make peace, this game will be a peace!"
He grabbed the spirit stone on the chessboard and threw it at the face without features.
The face was like dough, wrapping the spiritual stone and chewing it.
Mei Xueyi's mouth twitched.
In an instant, all of Wei Jinchao's spiritual stones were eaten by the faceless man in white.
A weird sullen smile appeared on his bare face: "Boy, it's your turn. It's too late to regret now. Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you eat a chess piece, you will definitely be gutted. Like you Such a mortal..."
He raised a skinny, dark hand and made a wild gesture: "Bang! This is the punishment for trespassing in forbidden areas, do you understand?"
Mei Xueyi put half of her body on Wei Jinchao's shoulders, put her head in and said with a smile: "Isn't it just to eat a few chess pieces? Stop talking nonsense, let me ask you, after eating, do you dare to have another game with my husband? "
"Eh hee hee hee..." The man in white covered his mouth with his hand, laughing so hard, "Ignorant people are really fearless! If I don't dare, I can just order a hundred more plates - you should tell him to eat!"
Mei Xueyi smiled: "My husband doesn't like such snacks."
As he spoke, he stretched out his arms to pick up the chess pieces and put them into his mouth like a dessert.
The two faceless men stared at her closely.
Mei Xueyi brought the chess piece to her lips and thought slightly: "Suck." '
The pure and huge power disappeared between her fingers, and she continued to extend her claws to the next chess piece.
Under the astonished gaze of the two faceless men, Mei Xueyi cleared the chessboard as if she was eating a dessert after a meal.
"Hiss—" the man in white leaned back, "After eating my chess piece, even Lao Hei will have a stomachache, but you girl has no reaction at all! Hey, could it be that you are a gluttonous old monster?"
"Next game." Mei Xueyi arrogantly stretched out her index finger and tapped the chessboard, "If you don't dare to play, then admit defeat as soon as possible."

"laugh!"
Smoke rose again on the chessboard, and soon, the man in white was once again forced into a desperate situation.
"Young girl distracted me, this game doesn't count!" The man in white slapped the table.
He had no face anyway.
"It's OK, but you have to answer me a question." Wei Jinchao weighed the spirit stone casually and tapped twice on the spot where the final blow was.
The man in white and the man in black looked at each other and said, "Okay, but we can only answer 'yes' or 'no'."
Wei Jinzhao nodded and asked calmly: "You two launched a war between immortals and demons. The purpose is to make no one in this world ascend?"
The tone is like asking 'what did you eat for lunch'.
The two faceless men were silent for a moment.
Everything came to a standstill.
Mei Xueyi's heart skipped a beat and she felt suddenly enlightened.
This battle between immortals and demons thousands of years ago has left the world of cultivation in a state of depression for thousands of years. So far, the highest cultivation level has only reached the intermediate level of Hedao. And before this catastrophe comes, there seem to be many powerful people who are qualified to attack the ascension barrier.
In his previous life, when he wanted to ascend, he was sniped by the Guardians of Life and Death.
If we only look at the results, both the Immortal Emperor Demon Lord and the Guardians of Life and Death seem to have the same goal - to prohibit ascension.
Wei Jinzhao caught the root cause.
After a long time, the two faceless men made a cold voice together: "Yes."
Both sides stopped talking. After silently taking the chess pieces, the next fight began.
There was a tension in the air.
After a long time, Wei Jinchao once again stopped his hand at the killing position: "You two abandon your true body, maintain the giant formation with a heaven-reaching cultivation, warm the breath of extreme yin, and allow the soul to practice the ghost path and wander around. Yin and Yang, yes or no?”
This time, the two faceless men were silent for longer.
Finally, the man in black said solemnly: "Prying into other people's secrets is also exposing yourself. You must continue."
Wei Jinchao smiled lightly: "If you don't want to make peace, I'll give up."
He gently rolled up his wide sleeves and was about to make the decisive move.
The man in white raised his hand to stop it and raised his head grimly: "Yes."
A new game has begun again.
The atmosphere became more condensed, and the faceless man no longer showed any contempt or joking, only the gloomy look of turning his face and killing someone at any time.
The reasons for not taking action immediately were that the faceless man was trying to win back the victory, and that Mei Xueyi had taken too many chess pieces, leaving the two of them confused.
However, this situation will not last long.
If the string is stretched for a long time, it will always break.
The air pressure next to the chess table is getting lower and lower.
Suddenly, it was as if the sun broke through the clouds, and amidst the heavy condensation came the sound of Mu Longlong's very uncomprehending instructions: "Hey, why do you, the old man in white, always lose! That step just now was a real one." It’s so stinky, aren’t you just giving it to others to eat? As for you, who will lose if you don’t lose? That step should be taken on the left, now you understand?”
Black and white faceless man: "..."
Mei Xueyi: "..."
I really don’t know what to say about this kid. When it was safe just now, he hid aside and trembled. Now that the atmosphere was tense, he couldn't tell at all. He thought it was safe after playing chess for a long time, so he came closer.
Forget it, he did something that a chess player hates the most. Even Jiang Xinyi couldn't cover his mouth.
Mei Xueyi turned around with drooped eyes: "A true gentleman watches chess without speaking."
Mu Longlong puffed up his chest without any shame: "If you have anything to say, just say it to me! Come on, old man, I'll teach you how to turn defeat into victory!"
Mei Xueyi: "..."
The faceless man's face twitched violently.
Under Mu Longlong's guidance, the man in white lost the game faster.
Mu Longlong patted his chest very loyally: "It was my mistake! I will answer this question for you!"
Faceless Man: "..." I really didn't understand which side this kid was on.
Mei Xueyi spoke quietly, with a gloomy voice: "Okay, then come closer and take a good look at the amiable old man in white next to you. Is he the ghost who caught you in the Netherworld when you were five years old?"
The faceless man in white brushed closer and thoughtfully moved away the stray hair on both sides of his face to help Mu Longlong see more clearly.
At such a close distance, Mu Longlong was caught off guard and relived his old dream with a bare face, and fainted on the spot.
Faceless Man: "..." What kind of fool is this
The atmosphere in the field was completely different from just now, and the black clouds covering the sky turned into crows flying noisily in the sky.
"Go on." Mei Xueyi motioned to Jiang Xinyi to drag Long Wazi further away.
The faceless man in white became interested: "Girl, did you just say that I would capture him and take him to the underworld?"
"To be precise, it's your ghost body." Mei Xueyi tilted her head to look at him curiously, "Do you know why?"
"He looks like me." The faceless man in white showed a non-existent 'smile'.
Mei Xueyi: "...the face shape seems to be a little bit similar."
The chess game continues.
In another game, once the chess piece in Wei Jinchao's hand falls, it will seal the opponent's chance of survival.
He supported the chess table and stood up slowly: "One last question - everything here, including the two of you, is an illusion created out of nothing, right or wrong?"
The black and white faceless people faced each other, and after a moment, they both laughed strangely.
"You're seeking your own death, you can't blame anyone else!"
The two of them turned into afterimages and were about to tear Wei Jinchao into pieces at the sight of them.
When Wei Jinchao left the chess table with his hands and spoke slowly, Mei Xueyi had already put his right hand on it.
When the black and white duo attacked, she gathered all her strength and shouted coldly: "Suck!"
This time, she had no scruples and went all out.
An invisible whirlpool was generated within the barrier. The grass, the trees, the soil, the stone table, everything was distorted, like a destroyed reflection in the water.
The two afterimages that flew past Xiang Wei Jinchao were dragged to the spot, their bodies elongated, and together with the surrounding scene, they turned into fragmented power, and were completely sucked away by Mei Xueyi.
It seemed as if a painted wall was cracking in front of him, gradually revealing the true appearance behind the painted wall.
There is no paradise, no grass grows and orioles fly.
In front of him was a large, dark and deep pit. The bottom of the pit was densely covered with extremely complicated formation patterns, and in each stroke, crimson blood flowed vibrantly.
For a moment, I couldn't tell whether it was spectacular or evil.
There are two bodies sitting in the center of the array, one in black and one in white.
That blood comes from their most powerful bodies, and merges into this shocking formation together with the Heavenly Cultivation, maintaining its eternity.
Wei Jinchao summoned his flying boat and slowly flew towards the formation's eye.
When I looked closer, I found it even more shocking.
Blood gushed out from under these two bodies like a waterfall. If it were an ordinary person, all the blood would have drained out in the blink of an eye.
"These are the bodies of the Immortal Emperor and the Demon Lord." Mei Xueyi carefully stood beside the side of the boat and looked closely, "This white-clothed Demon Lord is indeed somewhat similar to Mu Longlong! Is it possible that Mu Longlong is the Demon Lord's queen? people?"
Wei Jinchao: "..." Suddenly it seemed that not leaving any descendants was not a bad thing.
The flying boat hovered closer.
The two corpses looked like young men, the Immortal Emperor in black was handsome and cold, and the Demon Lord in white was gentle and graceful. Although he has been dead for thousands of years, he still looks like a living person.
"Your Majesty, I still don't understand." Mei Xueyi frowned and said, "Even if you have reached the heavens, it is impossible to create a living creature out of nothing. But how could those two faceless men just now be able to move and even think? ? I thought there was a 'spirit' bound in it, but there wasn't."
"Where does the queen think the 'spirit' comes from?"
Mei Xueyi rubbed her brows in annoyance: "What your Majesty asked is an eternal problem. How could I know."
He smiled faintly: "The Great Dao. The Great Dao evolves all things and gives spirituality. When setting up the formation, two 'agents' are created out of nothing, and then the power of the Dao is used to give the 'agents' their own memories and abilities. They Then you can mobilize the power of the formation eye to protect this giant formation."
Mei Xueyi revealed it with just one click: "So, the power of the world in the hands of the world guardians is the power of the great road. In this way, they have already picked the fruit of the path to heaven. Hey, this is very strange. If they don't ascend themselves, they can't. What’s the point of not allowing others to ascend and yet willing to die and become a ghost?”
Wei Jinchao shook his head and said nothing, staring at the two corpses in the center of the formation for a long time.
Now everything is very clear. Thousands of years ago, capable people emerged in large numbers, and the Immortal Emperor and the Demon Lord embarked on their journey to heaven. These two people were supposed to ascend to godhood, but for some reason they gave up the opportunity and deliberately launched a war between immortals and demons, involving all the capable people in the world into this catastrophe.
And these two people used the power of the great road to set up a shocking trap, turning the entire battlefield into a giant formation, killing all the capable people and strangers in both the immortal and demon realms, and sealing all possibilities of ascension.
So evil!
"What will happen if the formation is destroyed and these two corpses are destroyed?" Mei Xueyi was about to make a move.
Wei Jinchao smiled: "Maybe tonight you and I can meet the boundary guardian."
Mei Xueyi: "... It's better not to act rashly for the time being."
"It won't last too long. Without the 'agent' to check for the deficiencies, the collapse of the giant array is imminent. By then, this vast area will see the light of day again." He glanced at it, "When the fairyland is in chaos, I will be there for you. Conquer the country."
Mei Xueyi: "... Let's guard our three-acre land of Weiguo first."
There is still an unsolved mastermind over there. I didn't expect that exploring the ancient battlefield would lead to such a big thing.
"Huh?" Mu Longlong's dazed voice sounded next to him, "Who is this person?"
He lay on the side of the boat and leaned forward to look at the demon in white who looked somewhat similar to him.
"He seems like my long-lost brother!" Mu Longlong sighed with eyes wide open.
Mei Xueyi: "...Have any of your brothers gotten separated?"
"I'm just using an analogy." Mu Longlong blinked innocently, "This man looks friendly at first glance, like my big brother!"
Mei Xueyi: "..."
Wei Jinchao: "..."
They haven't forgotten the last time the kid pulled his biological father to have his hand on him.
"Eh? Wait, come closer, come closer and let me see!" Long Wazi suddenly became excited, "Do you think what is he putting on his lap?"
As he spoke, he pulled out the thin string hanging around his neck and revealed half of the jade pendant.
"Look, this jade pendant and mine look like a pair!"
Mei Xueyi and Wei Jinchao looked at each other suspiciously.
It seems... It's true.
Mu Longlong danced with excitement: "It turns out that I really have a lost brother! Come down quickly, I want to take him back so that my mother can recognize him!"
Jiang Xinyi sighed quietly: "Senior Brother Mu, it's very dangerous here, and the person down there..."
Mu Longlong waved his hand: "True friendship is revealed in times of adversity! Reuniting with my eldest brother in a place of crisis is God's test of our brotherhood!"
"He may be your ancestor." Mei Xueyi said desperately, "This is the old corpse of the demon king who has been dead for ten thousand years."
Mu Longlong fell back into the flying boat.
"Your Majesty," Mei Xueyi hesitated for a moment, "I think we should pick up the jade pendant and examine it carefully."
The white-clothed guardian once brought the young Mu Longlong to the Netherworld, and now he saw what appeared to be a pair of jade pendants on his body. This was very strange no matter how you looked at it.
"It's time to take a look," Wei Jinchao's gaze lingered on the jade pendant on Mu Longlong's chest for a moment, "If I'm not mistaken, this is Song's jade carving technique."
"Yes!" Mu Longlong's eyes brightened when he found his close friend, "It's the Song family's divine eagle with nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine spiritual stones!"
Mei Xueyi: "...I know you two are rich, but is it appropriate to talk about this here?"
Wei Jinchao laughed softly and said, "The Song family has only inherited it for a thousand years."
Mei Xueyi was stunned, and a chill suddenly ran down her spine: "The Demon Lord is a person who died thousands of years ago."
