Chapter 126  : The Conclusion That Did Not Change

It was an exquisite game at its last stages!

When Happy’s gaze landed on the board on the square table, his heart trembled. The things he went through in his past life were still vivid in his mind.

The set before him was known as THE profound game that was the most mysterious and difficult to solve game in all of the world of martial artists. Even some of the high-ranking professional Go players never managed to solve it. In the end, they only managed to get one point in their Comprehension, and if they ended up in that state, Happy did even worse. During the first round, he lost horribly, and he left after he gained one point in his Comprehension and one high-tier martial art manual.

While thinking about it, Happy stared at the chessboard on the square table. He could not help but suck in a deep breath. His gaze became solemn and grave.

The exquisite Go game was mysterious and difficult to understand item produced under Jin Yong’s pen. It even had strange illusory effects that could directly affect a person’s emotions and memories.

It was also known as a matchless item that did not lose to Nine Yin Divine Skill and Nine Yang Divine Skill! As long as a person could decode the essence and secret behind it, not only would Master Xuan Kong announce their identity, the player would even obtain a great fortuitous chance.

Countless people had tried to solve the Go game in the past, but, unfortunately, they all failed. They could not understand it and truly win the game or transcend their own self. They all ended up failing at the final few steps.

Happy did not manage to clear it in his previous life.

And in this life, he did not harbor any hope in succeeding either.

Due to the intriguing nature of the exquisite Go game, not only would the player need to have a deep understanding of Go itself, they would also need to get through the illusions that would be produced when they tried to solve the exquisite Go game. They even had to get rid of their Evil Conscience, which would take a very long time.

Happy had come because he wanted to get the one Comprehension point and to use the playing the game to avoid the pursuit from the Forest Union that would come because of the tribute, along with avoiding all the unexpected changes and enemies.

As long as he could survive the last day and the emperor’s birthday passed, the imperial court would no longer pursue the matter because they wanted to preserve their dignity, and all tributes would become items without owners. The bounty signs on the map would disappear, and the players would truly become the owners of the tributes in their hands.

When he thought of this, the solemnity and nervousness that enveloped Happy’s heart went down by a large margin.

He flung his sleeves, and under Master Xuan Kong’s praising gaze, he sat down in front of the square table without any pretence.

Ding!

When Master Xuan Kong sat down, the clear notification from the system reached Happy’s ears.

“Receive Master Xuan Kong’s trial with the exquisite Go game!

“If you can last ten moves without losing, you will be considered to have cleared the exquisite Go game. You will be able to obtain a Comprehension point and one high-tier martial art manual!

“If you fail the trial, you will only obtain one Comprehension point.

“Those who solve the exquisite Go game will obtain three Comprehension points, one high-tier martial art manual, and the unique technique Master Xuan Kong created himself.”

Happy’s gaze became clear. He sucked in a deep breath again and looked at Master Xuan Kong.

“Please make your move.”

Master Xuan Kong said nothing. He put away the kind smile on his face, replacing it with a serious look. He nodded and picked up a round black piece from the Go box that was filled with black pieces.

When he made his move, Happy felt that the black and white colors around him intersected with each other, and a change happened!

When the exquisite move was made, the stars and moon passed by him like lightning!

When the starlight enveloped him, Happy felt as if he was sitting in a hazy dimension. He felt slightly at a loss, until he saw a huge, exquisite Go game.

The black pieces and white pieces were like a huge, beautiful, and grand constellation chart. It stood before Happy with an awe-inspiring might.

The were obviously more black pieces in the constellation chart than the white pieces, and when they were made in such an exaggerated manner, they looked like a huge black dragon with its claws and fangs shown. It had its jaws clamped tightly on a white tiger, and there was a fierce glare in its eyes. It looked mighty and awe-inspiring! It seemed like it just needed to exert a little bit of strength, and it would be able to tear the white tiger apart, devouring it alive.

Happy picked up a white piece and felt himself fall into a daze.

It had to be said that the exquisite Go game had a very terrifying effect on the hearts of men!

Under the stimulation of a mysterious matrix, a normal game turned into something that was incredibly dangerous and terrifying. Upon seeing it, people could not help themselves but get immersed in it. They were no longer the ones controlling the game, but were dragged into it. The feeling as if they were watching over the game would completely disappear.

Furthermore, they would be shocked when they were dragged from the world outside into the game, and their hearts and minds would be influenced by the illusion of the black dragon and white tiger. When they lowered their heads to look at the white piece in their hands, they would inevitably feel sad. They would be hesitant and alarmed, because they would not know where they should start.

Then, they would become even more depressed, because they would think that a single white piece would not be able to change the situation before their eyes. They would have the misconception that they could not save the white tiger from the claws of the black dragon.

Ingenious!

It was the exquisite Go game!

It was a game that made countless high-tier Go masters spit in disdain, but even more Go masters found pleasure in it. They feel as if this Go game was a reflection of life, a great secret that could not be matched by anything else!

Happy closed his eyes while rubbing the piece in his hands. When he was dragged into the exquisite Go game again, he felt as if a well of emotions surged in him. After a long while, he exhaled and opened his eyes to look at the picture of the black dragon devouring the tiger before him carefully.

It looked alive.

And in his hands was a Go piece that seemed to be extremely insignificant.

The feeling of disparity defeated most of the players, including Happy in his previous life. But this time, he lowered his head to look at the Go piece in his hand.

He imagined that the Go piece in his hand was just as big as the picture in front of him and just as dazzling...

Buzz!

The Go piece in Happy’s hand suddenly trembled!

It became bigger and brighter.

It was like a moon basin that was silvery-white in its entirety. An astonishing light erupted from within it, and it illuminated Happy’s handsome and determined face until he looked even more confident and lively than before.

The moment to place his Go piece had arrived.

Happy smiled faintly. He pushed the white moon basin in his hand in the direction of the black dragon’s big and fierce mouth. It was led forward by an invisible force and landed on the black dragon’s reverse scale.

“Roar!”

The white tiger stretched its claws. The black dragon howled in pain when its reverse scales were attacked.

The furious dragon roar instantly shattered the dimension of the stars and moon. The exquisite Go game also shattered to countless pieces. The scene changed, and Happy found himself back in the temple. His upper body was leaning forward, and his white piece was on the spot where he had wanted to place it.

When Master Xuan Kong saw Happy recover to normal and found that he had freed himself from the exquisite Go game, his spirits lifted, and a delighted and excited look appeared on his face.

“You are not affected by the changes in the world around you. When you see a mountain, it is still a mountain... Young patron, you do indeed have extraordinary willpower!”

“Master, you praise me too much. Please make your move.”

Happy was high in spirits, but he showed nothing on his face. He raised his hand and made a gesture for Master Xuan Kong to make his move.

He knew his level with Go very clearly, and he could not be called anything better than an amateur. He had managed to pass the test because of the experience and lessons he had learned in his previous life, or else he would have ended up the same way as the others. He would have only been able to watch helplessly as the white tiger was buried in the black dragon’s stomach.

Xuan Kong did not waste his breath.

He cast a glance at the Go game that had been changed a little. He rubbed his fingers against a piece and cast a glance at Happy. When his hand reached the board, he made an ingenious move behind the white tiger.

The situation turned around.

Happy saw the scene before his eyes change, and he returned to the picture of the black dragon and the white tiger.

The situation seemed to have become even more dangerous!

“Roar!”

The black dragon bit the tiger...

The white tiger’s side was now torn. Its presence became faint, and it was still in a precarious situation.

Happy sat quietly in the dimension of the stars and moon while staring at the constellation chart that was formed by the black and white light that filled the sky. His eyes sparkled while he frowned deeply. He sank into deep thought.

He was indeed horrible when it came to Go.

But it was not difficult to understand the changes in the images. If he deciphered it based on the point of view of the dragon and tiger executing their skills, then based on his experience, within less than nine moves, the white tiger would surely die!
