Yang Qi and Emperor Tianyi looked at each other, without any hesitation, they moved and entered the passage, and then they came to the second floor of the ancient tower. In the center of the second floor hall, there was a chess game waiting for Yang Qi and Emperor Tianyi. The two did not dare to hesitate and immediately began to try to crack the chess game.
After all, the time to crack each level of the chess game is limited, and no one knows how difficult the second level of the chess game will be, so every minute and every second must be seized.
Just as Yang Qi and Emperor Tianyi had expected, the difficulty of the second-level chess game was obviously much greater than that of the first-level chess game. Even Yang Qi took more than a day to successfully crack the chess game.
In comparison, it took Emperor Tianyi a long time to crack the chess game. It took more than four days to successfully crack the chess game. What was different from the last time was that when Emperor Tianyi was cracking the chess game, he noticed that Yang Qi had cracked the chess game, so he roughly knew how long it took Yang Qi to crack the chess game.
Emperor Tianyi looked at Yang Qi in front of him and said with emotion, "Daoyou Xuxing, this chess game only took you a little over a day, right?"
“This emperor also had some advantages. This emperor has seen similar chess games before, so it took less time to crack it.” Yang Qi said calmly.
This was not all Yang Qi's humble words. When he cracked the chess game, he had already found that the chess game had some similarities with the Feather God game, so he had some advantages in the cracking process. However, part of the chess game presented on the second floor of the ancient tower had already exceeded the content of the chess game that Yang Qi had cracked before. In the future chess games, it would be impossible for Yang Qi to use the Feather God game to gain an advantage.
"Given the difficulty, I may not be able to crack the chess game on the third floor of the ancient tower. Even if I can crack it, it will take a lot of time." Emperor Tianyi paused for a moment and continued, "Whether you can pass the test next depends on you, fellow Taoist."
After trying two consecutive chess games, Emperor Tianyi was already very clear about the gap between himself and Yang Qi. In the next game, Yang Qi's speed of cracking it might be higher than his. Therefore, Emperor Tianyi was very clear that starting from the third game, it would depend on Yang Qi's performance.
"Don't worry, fellow Daoist. I will do my best." Yang Qi nodded slightly. After all, this was related to the opportunity he could get, so naturally he would not have any reservations. Moreover, he was also aware of the benefits of cracking the chess game. Cracking more chess games would be of great help to him.
As Emperor Tianyi cracked the chess game, the passage to the third level appeared. Yang Qi and Emperor Tianyi climbed to the third level without any hesitation.
After observing the chess game at the third level for a while, Yang Qi couldn't help but secretly said in his heart, "The chess game at the third level really has nothing in common with the Yu Shen game. It should be related to the higher level chess game of the Yu Shen game that I failed to crack at the beginning."
At that moment, Yang Qi could only crack the game step by step. According to Yang Qi's attempts, he soon determined that the game in front of him was obviously more difficult to crack. Even with Yang Qi's comprehension and his understanding of this kind of game, it took him nearly two days to successfully crack the third game.
Seeing that Emperor Tianyi was still cracking the chess game, Yang Qi immediately sat down cross-legged and began to absorb and digest the gains from cracking the chess game. This went on until the sixth day, when Emperor Tianyi successfully cracked the third chess game.
Although he successfully cracked the third chess game, there was no joy on Emperor Tianyi's face, because he knew very well that with the increasing difficulty of the chess games, his hope of successfully cracking the fourth chess game was extremely slim.
On the fourth floor of the ancient tower, when Yang Qi and Emperor Tianyi tried to crack the chess game, their faces suddenly changed, because they found that the difficulty of the chess game on the fourth floor of the ancient tower had increased significantly, and the degree of increase was obviously much greater than that of the first three floors!
Obviously, the difficulty increases significantly from the third level to the fourth level of the ancient pagoda. This is done deliberately by the owner of the ancient pagoda in order to select practitioners with stronger understanding.
After understanding the difficulty of the chess game, Emperor Tianyi looked at Yang Qi and said helplessly, "Fellow Daoist Xuxing, I'm afraid there is no hope for me in this chess game."
“Fellow Daoist Tianyi, as long as you do your best in everything, you will have no regrets. There is no need to worry too much.” Yang Qi said calmly.
After hearing this, Emperor Tianyi nodded. There are always people better than you, and no one dares to say that he is the best. Emperor Tianyi, who has practiced for many years, naturally understands this. However, even though he knows this clearly, Emperor Tianyi still hopes to go further under the test of the master of the ancient tower. Now, all he can do is to try his best.
At that moment, Yang Qi and Emperor Tianyi were immersed in cracking the chess game. As time passed, nearly three days passed in a blink of an eye, and Yang Qi finally cracked the chess game in front of him. This time it took significantly longer than before, but fortunately he finally cracked the chess game.
In comparison, Emperor Tianyi was not so lucky. Seven days passed in a blink of an eye, and Emperor Tianyi ended up in failure. This result was not too unexpected to Yang Qi and Emperor Tianyi. After all, the difficulty of the fourth-level chess game increased linearly. If there was enough time, Emperor Tianyi might be able to crack it, but seven days was obviously not enough!
Fortunately, Yang Qi came with him, otherwise Emperor Tianyi’s final gain would probably be the opportunity corresponding to the third level of the ancient tower. Perhaps this level of opportunity would be of great help to Emperor Tianyi, but it obviously would not reach the level that Saint Lord Tianyuan expected.
As Yang Qi cracked the chess game, the two passed through the passage and came to the fifth floor of the ancient tower. The chess game on the fifth floor was more difficult than the chess game on the fourth floor. And the degree of improvement was obviously greater than the degree of improvement on the first two floors, but it did not reach the span from the third floor to the fourth floor.
Looking at the chess game in front of him, Yang Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The difficulty has increased so much, and the difficulty of the following chess games is likely to increase linearly. Even if I am the emperor, I have no confidence in reaching the ninth floor of the ancient tower!"
If the difficulty of the chess game increased only to the level of the first three levels of the ancient tower, Yang Qi would be confident enough to pass the chess game test of the nine-story ancient tower. But now, according to the difficulty of the chess game, even Yang Qi has no confidence in reaching the ninth floor of the ancient tower.
Shaking his head, Yang Qi did not think about it, but quickly immersed himself in cracking the chess game. Emperor Tianyi, who was standing next to him, also began to try to crack the chess game, but after Emperor Tianyi tried, he quickly frowned.
