Gaowu invasion, I can see the future

188: Ghosts in Tianyuan Realm! Red intelligence fragmentsHe then carefully reviewed the plans of the other foreign races, and indeed, the Sea Demon Clan’s plan included a major operation during the Zhongyuan Festival.

The content of this grand plan was extremely detailed, approximately two thousand characters long.

“Good heavens!”

“The target is to control a large section of the Qingyun River! Their ambition is quite considerable.”

“Fortunately, in the aftermath, the Official did detonate a large number of pre-planted bombs.”

“It’s a pity that the Official’s preparations were not sufficient, and it was probably only after I provided the underground river map that they began to act.”

“Under emergency circumstances, they could only detonate a large number of bombs, causing some critical areas of the underground river to collapse.”

After Bai Yu’s previous reminder, the Official’s preparations were certainly more thorough.

Therefore, from the report, the outcome was not too bad.

Among the information from other foreign races, what naturally caught Bai Yu’s attention the most was the Barbarian Tribe!

“In the initial timeline, the Barbarian Tribe and the Blood Clan, with an army of over five thousand, took advantage of the black lotus flower’s descent to seize the Dragon Pearl.”

“From this report, it seems the Barbarian Tribe still cooperated with the Blood Clan, but they didn’t gain any advantage.”

“However…”

Bai Yu narrowed his eyes.

Although the record did not specifically mention the Official’s situation, judging by the intensity of the battle, the Official was probably not having an easy time either!

“Fortunately… this intelligence recorded the rift through which the Barbarian Tribe descended into the Northern Mountain Range.”

“Early September? Then we’ll have a good time then!”

Since he had obtained so much intelligence, and it was all so useful for the future, with much of the information pertaining to today’s Zhongyuan Festival.

Bai Yu naturally couldn’t hide it.

Without hesitation, he immediately intended to go out and find Li Yunbin.

Stepping out, he glanced at the moonlight.

Speaking of which, the night view here was quite good.

“Right, where was the team leader?”

He picked up his phone, scrolled through it, and then made a call.

“Beep ~ beep ~ beep ~”

After a long while, no one answered.

Bai Yu frowned; why did he feel that something was a bit strange?

Turning around again, he suddenly noticed that the surrounding scenery was somewhat off.

Looking up at the stairs to one side, the scene above also seemed to have changed.

There was a chessboard!

On one side of the chessboard sat a white-robed old man.

“...”

Bai Yu finally understood.

So, it was the big shot’s doing!

It felt like entering a Ghost Realm, which was quite frightening.

He thought carefully, if something happened in this place, then the enemy would have more time points to crush him!

Thinking this way, Bai Yu had nothing to fear and boldly walked up.

He slowly walked up the stairs, but Bai Yu noticed something amiss.

The white-robed old man was playing chess with someone!

However, Bai Yu couldn’t see the other person at all.

Only when the other person made a move could Bai Yu see a pale hand!

He was no longer the half-baked Cultivator he once was; he now possessed his own abilities.

In fact, he had even activated his third eye today!

Ghost-like life form!

Moreover, it was definitely not an ordinary Linghai Realm being; it might even be a Tian Yuan Realm being!

What… what exactly was going on?

Could it be that the white-robed big shot raised it?

But it didn’t look like it.

Bai Yu looked at the white-robed big shot in confusion, his eyes filled with questions.

However, the white-robed big shot appeared completely engrossed at the moment, utterly unconcerned with external matters.

Bai Yu even understood that if he were to speak, he might break this situation, leading to extremely dire consequences.

The white-robed big shot was battling this ghost!

Realizing this predicament, cold sweat broke out on Bai Yu’s forehead.

He looked around again, at the quiet environment.

He was currently in another space!

In fact, the situation might be very critical right now.

That’s not right!

Grandmaster Wang Zhong sent him back yesterday; could he have left?

Or was he fighting another enemy?

Since he completely didn’t understand the situation, Bai Yu didn’t dare to act rashly and could only silently watch the big shot operate here.

He had played some Go in his previous life, but he was purely an amateur, unable to even reach a Dan rank.

Naturally, he couldn’t understand the Go moves of strong players.

However, looking at the pieces on the board, he seemed to see the clash of two forces!

They seemed to be evenly matched.

In his current understanding, this white-robed old man was already a TOP1 existence, yet there was someone who could match him.

If the big shot couldn’t hold on, he wouldn’t survive either.

Time passed minute by minute, and due to the tense situation, Bai Yu even forgot the existence of time.

After an unknown period, out of 361 points, fewer than forty remained.

He could count the territory clearly; the white-robed old man gained the upper hand in the latter half.

He should be leading by five points now.

Even if he didn’t understand much, among the strong, this was already a situation that could not be reversed, right?

Just then, that powerful being, whose hand was the only visible part, suddenly spoke, “You win.”

As the words fell, an extremely violent Yin wind suddenly swept through the area.

The surrounding space seemed to tear apart.

Bai Yu felt his body being ripped apart by this force.

However, the white-robed strongman waved his hand, and a force protected him.

After about half a minute, that powerful being seemed to have departed.

Before Bai Yu could speak, the white-robed old man said, “This person is a Chess Saint from the Tang Dynasty. He is one of the ten Incarnations of Wang Jixin, the historical figure and Chess Saint of the Tang Dynasty.”

Bai Yu didn’t understand the meaning and asked in confusion, “Uh, was that a normal game of chess, or…?”

“Today is the Zhongyuan Festival. According to our original concept, on the first day of the seventh lunar month, the Ghost Gate opens. On the fifteenth of the seventh month, the Ghost Gate fully opens.”

“He was deliberately lured here by a foreign race, and then he had a wager with me.”

“If I lost, then there would inevitably be a battle.”

Under normal circumstances, a big shot would certainly not casually reveal such secrets.

The key was that Bai Yu could only listen to it as a story, with no other use for it.

This made Bai Yu realize a rather cruel point.

He was invincible among his peers.

But he was still an ant!

The white-robed old man looked at Bai Yu, smiled, and said, “Your contributions have already surpassed those of most people. Just focus on improving yourself, and we will do our best to buy more time for you.”

Bai Yu immediately composed himself and said earnestly, “Understood!”

He then immediately intended to state the purpose of his visit, but before he could speak, the white-robed old man said, “This is still a Ghost Realm. Let’s talk somewhere else.”

“Alright!”

Real world.

Mountain top pavilion.

It was very bright here, and one could look up and see the moon.

Walking in, one felt an extreme sense of peace and tranquility.

On the way, Bai Yu thought carefully.

He had actually already displayed many abilities that did not conform to divination.

Currently, he had even obtained a large amount of intelligence on foreign races, which was difficult to explain with divination.

Therefore, it was best to honestly reveal it.

Seeing this, after some internal struggle, Bai Yu said, “Um, are you the… big shot who has been secretly watching me?”

The reason he asked this was because he now had a vague sense of destiny.

The big shot in front of him felt familiar.

The white-robed old man simply quietly brewed some tea and said, “Yes and no. The one who brought you to my attention was Mr. Kong Shen.”

“Elder Kong!?”

“Yes, but it’s not convenient to talk much. You’ll understand when you reach a certain height in the future.”

Bai Yu really wanted to know what Elder Kong had done.

What kind of connection did a person he met briefly and then separated by Yin and Yang have with him?

But seeing this, he couldn’t ask more questions.

However, he thought of the Crystal of Destiny around his neck.

After confirming, Bai Yu no longer hesitated and directly revealed several recent plans of the foreign races.

He focused on the key points, such as the Sea Demon Clan’s attack points tonight.

The Demon Race’s Death God Resurrection Plan’s Ghost Gate No. 9.

The Barbarian Tribe’s landing location and time!

The white-robed strongman just listened quietly. For a big shot, he might already be aware of these enemy plans.

However, from the results, the two key pieces of information, Ghost Gate No. 9 and the Barbarian Tribe’s landing location, were definitely not predicted by the higher-ups.

Their divination truly grasped information from the ethereal.

Bai Yu, on the other hand, was an event report from the future!

The nature was completely different.

After listening, the white-robed strongman nodded and said, “This intelligence can indeed greatly change our fortune.”

“Speak, what do you want?”

Hearing this, Bai Yu was stunned, then his face flushed, feeling a bit embarrassed.

In the face of such major issues, talking about money was so vulgar!

“Tianhai City being safer is also a good thing for me.”

“Hmm, since we’ve finished talking, I’ll go prepare now.”

The next moment, the white-robed big shot transformed into two black and white lights and disappeared from the spot.

Bai Yu was stunned.

Huh?

No reward, really?

Fortunately, a message was left in the air: “It will be prepared for you. That Secret Realm of the Elves is quite good.”

Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief, but then hearing about the Secret Realm of the Elves, curiosity arose in his heart again.

“Could it be about the Thunder Staff?”

“Meow meow meow, if only I had known, I would have just asked for it directly! I’m not someone who doesn’t want benefits, ahhh…”

“Darn it! I must learn from this experience next time.”

Back in the Cultivation room.

He glanced at the time, three in the morning.

“Speaking of which, after my strength increased today, my Nine Heavens Thunderous True Art takes only four minutes for a Small Circulation of the Heavens, and fifty minutes for a Great Circulation of the Heavens!”

“Now I can try to run ten Great Circulation of the Heavens with the Nine Heavens Thunderous True Art. I wonder if there will be any good effects.”

No nonsense, just do it!

In a flash, it was almost twelve o’clock.

Successfully ran ten Great Circulation of the Heavens, obtained Red Fragment * 1

“Hmm!?” Red Fragment!

“It’s just… did the Golden Finger not change?”

But when he looked at that task, Bai Yu noticed a slight change.

Task Five: Run Great Circulation of the Heavens 10/10

Reward: 1 Random Intelligence Fragment (Purple: 83%, Gold: 15%, Red: 2%)

10 fragments can be synthesized into an Intelligence Scroll.

After using an Intelligence Scroll, intelligence of the corresponding quality will appear, but still requires Intelligence Value to purchase.

Purple: 200, Gold: 500, Red: 1000

“The gold probability increased from 9% to 15%.”

“The red probability increased from 1% to 2%.”

“It doesn’t feel like a very big increase~”

“However, if it directly gives a red intelligence, then I’ll take back what I said. Gold is fine too!”

After the fragment probability increased, Bai Yu felt that Intelligence Value was even more scarce.

“I wonder if promoting to Ling Yuan will increase the ways to acquire Intelligence Value.”

“The specifics can only be seen then.”

“The most profound feeling right now is that after my strength increased, the intelligence purchased with the same Intelligence Value is worth a lot more!”
