999 Kinds of God-level Identities, Various Ways to Beat the Protagonist

307: Dadao Chess RulesHongmeng God Realm.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The dog cages rattled and shook wildly.

Tian Feng held his great stick, which had been smoking hot these days. As a dedicated minion, he hadn’t been idle. Besides wielding his stick, he had also consulted the mountainous pile of various ancient texts in the Hongmeng Divine Alliance, researching how to extract and harvest Luck more quickly and efficiently.

The results were remarkable!

He could now operate on multiple fronts, simultaneously targeting several Heavenly Mandate Protagonists in the Hongmeng God Realm to squeeze out their Luck.

However, even so, Tian Feng felt immense pressure!

Despite his hard work, his boss didn’t seem satisfied with his progress, repeatedly inquiring about it. He hadn’t left these dog cages for many days.

Thump.

Tian Feng’s head suddenly jolted, as if a large hammer had struck it.

This was a Restriction he had set himself!

Only in moments of extreme urgency would it trigger in his body, allowing him to react with the utmost accuracy immediately.

“It’s the Alliance Leader!”

He perked up, immediately straightening his posture. A gentle voice came from beside his ear: “Little Tian, how’s the progress?”

“How much longer until the Luck of the next Heavenly Mandate Protagonist can be completely drained?”

Tian Feng felt warmth in his heart upon hearing his boss’s affectionate address. He immediately scrutinized the dog cage in front of him, which contained Chen Fan, captured later by Chu Feng.

“Please wait a moment, I’ll take a look.”

Tian Feng was meticulous and did not respond immediately.

Instead, he carefully observed Chen Fan.

Below Chen Fan’s head, his body was covered in various Divine Needles that shimmered with Dao principles. His eyes rolled back, and his whole body trembled.

Above his head, wisps of clear smoke wafted upwards towards the sky.

Those wafting wisps of clear smoke were strands of Luck.

The damage Chen Fan was currently enduring was far more than just physical. Tian Feng’s meticulously crafted draining package meant that this Heavenly Mandate Protagonist, who followed the Gou Dao (Gou Dao) path, was suffering far more than what was visible.

He flicked his palm, and a silver mercury cup appeared. The cup was filled with overflowing silver light, shimmering like liquid.

Tian Feng tossed the mercury cup upwards. Instantly, the mouth of the mercury cup generated a suction force, pulling several wisps of clear Qi emanating from Chen Fan’s head into the cup.

The clear Qi entering the cup pushed aside the liquid-like silver light, like a hungry Dragon, wantonly devouring it.

Three seconds later, most of the silver light had vanished, with only one-third remaining. The clear Qi-like Dragon also burst due to excessive consumption of the silver light.

“One-third remaining.”

“According to the newly reformed Luck extraction method, it should be compressible to seventeen days.”

Tian Feng pondered for a moment before reporting his conclusion to Chu Feng: “Alliance Leader, it will take another eighteen days.”

He reserved one day for contingencies.

If it could be completed early, everyone would be happy.

But if he left himself too little time and something went wrong, he might end up in a dog cage himself.

“Eighteen days, you say?”

“Try to be quicker.”

Chu Feng’s voice rang out again.

Eighteen days was already very fast; for beings of this level, it was more than a blink of an eye.

“Understood. Please rest assured, Alliance Leader! I guarantee the mission will be completed!”

“Well done. Once this busy period is over, I’ll take you to a good place for further training.”

A good place for further training?

Tian Feng’s heart trembled. He knew how powerful the Alliance Leader was, and for him to call it a good place, Tian Feng couldn’t help but feel excited.

He secretly decided to conquer the current Chen Fan as quickly as possible.

After knowing the time, Chu Feng casually encouraged the diligent Tian Feng a few words and focused his attention on his new Divine-Grade identity.

Chess Saint…

This identity was very ordinary.

Who plays chess seriously anyway?

He briefly sensed this identity and realized that his understanding of this Divine-Grade identity was too shallow.

A Chess Saint indeed specializes in the Dao of chess.

After unlocking this Divine-Grade identity, he became one of the world’s few Great Grandmasters of chess.

However, that wasn’t all.

A Chess Saint possessed top-tier methods, similar to an Array Ancestor, capable of unleashing combat power exceeding the True God Realm!

Essentially, it was the application of Heavenly Dao rules!

Every chess player has a Supreme understanding of Heavenly Dao rules, moving pieces across the world’s intricate chessboard, using heaven and earth as the board, all living beings as pieces, and everything in the world as pieces!

At its peak, one could even break the rules!

The potential of this identity far exceeded many people’s imaginations.

He looked down at Su Ji, who had snuggled into his embrace at some point. Feeling playful, he patted her smooth, jade-like shoulder: “Su Ji, let’s go play chess.”

“Play chess?”

Su Ji was startled, her peach-blossom-like face filled with alarm. She waved her hands repeatedly, trembling like a flower in the wind: “No, no, husband! I am just a tiny Supreme, I really can’t play anymore.”

Indeed, after days of arduous cultivation.

Su Ji had already advanced to become a Great Supreme, but it was useless.

Let alone a Great Supreme, even the Supreme Giants were still unconscious.

Hearing Chu Feng wanted to play chess, not only Su Ji, but even Ji Xianzi subconsciously swayed towards the edge of the Eight Wilderness Chaos Pool.

Chu Feng looked at the terrified Su Ji, startled: “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“I’m really playing chess.”

After he finished speaking, he waved his palm, and a chessboard with straight, intersecting lines immediately appeared.

On either side of the chessboard were two chess baskets emitting black and white clear Qi. Each basket contained black and white chess pieces, and the pieces emitted terrifying Chaos aura.

Chu Feng glanced at them and found that every single chess piece was a Supreme-grade congenital dao artifact.

6.

There were quite a few chess pieces, and even the chess baskets were supreme dao artifacts. Releasing them would scare many people to death.

What made Chu Feng even more speechless was that the artifact spirits within these chess pieces were all very active. Upon sensing his gaze, they excitedly clamored: “Master, Master, play me, play me! Play me to death!”

“Master, please play this little hot chess piece first! Today, I’ll definitely let Master’s big fingers have their fill of fun!”

“Shut up, how capable are you? Let Master play you first? Hmm?”

“Master, ignore those white pieces, you must firmly stuff me onto the chessboard first! I am Little Black Piece Number One!”

“…”

Chu Feng: ???

Su Ji: ???

When she saw the chessboard, she was very surprised, thinking her husband had truly changed his ways and wanted to play chess to cultivate his character.

Now it seemed she had thought too much.

Chu Feng was also speechless; he, too, had changed his previous opinion.

This set of chessboards was so improper, this identity was probably also improper.

He casually picked up a black piece, heard a sharp cry, and placed the piece without paying attention.

Tap.

“Your turn.”

Chu Feng prompted.

Watching the black piece fall onto the board, Su Ji was stunned. He was really playing?

She naturally wouldn’t spoil Chu Feng’s fun and placed a white piece.

Tap, tap, tap, tap…

They went back and forth, playing dozens of moves. Su Ji was utterly defeated, losing everything.

She looked at Chu Feng in shock. After only dozens of moves, the basic situation of the game was already clear.

But this wasn’t right. She genuinely loved playing chess. Even when she was adventuring with Xuan Wei back then, she used to play against herself within the Abstinence (Jie) space.

In terms of cultivation, she was no match for Chu Feng, not even a hundred of her.

But in terms of chess skill, Su Ji believed her chess skill was extraordinary and would definitely not be inferior to Chu Feng’s.

Reality, however, slapped her hard in the face.

Her husband’s chess skill was top-tier!

Just as top-tier as his Dual Cultivation level!

Her eyes flickered as she looked at Chu Feng, saying admiringly: “Husband, this game cannot continue. I have basically lost.”

Chu Feng nodded, his gaze thoughtful.

It wasn’t about the chess game, but while placing pieces and playing with Su Ji, a certain premonition vaguely arose within him.

On the chessboard, his black pieces encircled Su Ji’s white pieces, almost completely trapping her, forming a virtually inescapable death trap.

At this moment, his Supreme demonic heart suddenly throbbed, faintly realizing that these white pieces shared his aura.

It was as if his own predicament was like that of the white pieces, trapped in a dead end.

“It seems… danger is approaching.”

“If I really wait eighteen days, I will surely die.”

Chu Feng’s eyes flickered, shifting his perspective to Su Ji’s white pieces, pondering how to break the black piece’s encirclement.

Suddenly, the white piece artifact spirit on the chessboard clamored: “Why surrender?! Aren’t you about to win?? Keep playing!”

Su Ji stared blankly at the artifact spirit, confusion flashing in her eyes: “Huh? Isn’t this a death trap for me? I can still win?”

“What death trap! Do you even know how to play chess?!”

The white piece artifact spirits chattered noisily: “According to the rules set by the Great Dao Chess Game, as long as five pieces can connect in a line, you win, don’t you?”

“Our four brothers are only one step away from connecting. Master cannot block either side, so what are you afraid of? Hurry up and play!”

Their desire to win was strong, and they began to instruct Su Ji on the chessboard.

Su Ji: ???

Chu Feng: ???

What is the Great Dao Chess Game?

And what kind of strange rule is five pieces connecting in a line?!

Who plays chess like that?!
