Fairy Tree

"Look in front of the man holding the chess piece." From the position of the three of them, they could vaguely see that there was a chessboard on the stone wall in front of the man holding the white chess piece.

The black and white stones are arranged staggered on it. It seems that the player has already reached the halfway point of the game, and the man holding the white chess piece is thinking hard about how to make a move.

The strange thing is that there is no one else beside the man holding the white chess except the girl playing the flute.

"Sword intent is so strong." Xiao Lin stared at the lines on the chessboard. After a moment, he suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"Junior brother Xiao, are you?" Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao were immediately shocked. They didn't understand why Xiao Lin, who was fine, suddenly spit out blood.

Xiao Lin waved his hands towards the two of them and said, "Don't look at the patterns on the chessboard. This chessboard contains the true meaning of swordsmanship."

Hearing this, Tao Ling did not look at the chessboard, but Xiao Yishao couldn't help but take a peek, but was surprised to find that he had no reaction and did not see the so-called sword intention that Xiao Lin said.

Xiao Lin took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and seemed to be healing his wounds.

Although Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao were a little strange, they also sat down and waited quietly.

After about half an hour, tiny cyan lights suddenly appeared around Xiao Lin's body, becoming more and more intense.

Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao looked at Xiao Lin with dissatisfied expressions. Xiao Lin didn't look like he was adjusting his breath to heal his injuries, but rather like he was practicing some kind of magic technique.

The two looked at each other. Just now, Tao Ling couldn't help her curiosity and took a peek at the lines on the chessboard. However, like Xiao Yishao, she didn't feel anything and didn't feel what Xiao Lin said. The true meaning of swordsmanship.

At this time, Xiao Lin, who was sitting cross-legged and motionless, suddenly rose up slowly. His body was wrapped in a thick dark green spiritual light, and he rose to the statue dozens of feet high. Then, Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao were horrified. In the ground's eyes.

Xiao Lin actually changed his direction and strangely assumed the position of his head and feet. In this way, he was in the same position as the two statues, standing side by side.

Xiao Lin sat cross-legged opposite the man holding the white chess piece, with a green aura floating around his body. After a moment, Xiao Lin suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the chess board.

Two turquoise lights shot out from Xiao Lin's eyes and hit the chessboard.

"Buzz~" The lines on the chessboard suddenly lit up one after another, and then in the horrified eyes of Tao Ling and the two of them, dark green runes emerged from the lines on the chessboard. These runes were connected in a string and shot directly into the chessboard. It hit Xiao Lin’s eyebrows.

Xiao Lin closed his eyes again, and a look of pain began to show on his face, but it only lasted for a moment before his expression returned to calm, and he sat still, as if he had closed his five senses.

The dark green runes on the chessboard did not stop, they were still pouring into Xiao Lin's eyebrows. I don't know how long it took before the dark green runes stopped floating on the chessboard lines.

Xiao Lin still didn't wake up, sitting cross-legged on the stone wall at the top of the cave, motionless.

A few days later, Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao looked up at Xiao Lin, who was still motionless, with worried looks on their faces.

"Senior Sister Tao, are Junior Brother Xiao okay? The chessboard is a bit weird. Could Junior Brother Xiao be fooled?" In the past few days, the two of them had been silent for fear of disturbing Xiao Lin. During this period, the two of them even Just meditate and practice.

Xiao Yishao couldn't help but ask after seeing that Xiao Lin had been sitting motionless for several days.

"The lines emanating from the chessboard don't look like some kind of attack method, but more like a method of passing on skills. And Junior Brother Xiao doesn't seem to be wrong. Let's wait." After thinking for a while, Tao Ling replied.

"I'm just wondering why Junior Brother Xiao said he saw the true meaning of swordsmanship on the chessboard, but why can't I see it?" Xiao Yishao said rather dejectedly.

"In addition to relying on oneself to strive for everything, there is also a fate. This stone statue has been standing here for I don't know how many years. I am afraid that there are not a few monks who have seen it, but I am afraid that there are not many who can see the secrets on this chessboard. Several people."

"Among the three of us, only Junior Brother Xiao is the only one who can see the sword intention contained in it. Although Senior Sister Tao and I have practiced sword techniques for a few days, I still cannot understand the sword intention on the chessboard. From this point of view, we are not destined to be together. ." Tao Ling shook his head, with a bitter smile on his face. At the same time, he glanced at Xiao Lin with envy and said.

"Senior Sister Tao, look." Xiaoyi pointed his finger at the top of his head and said in shock.

Tao Ling looked up and saw a dark green aura emerging from Xiao Lin's body again, and his body slowly left the cave wall, spinning and falling downwards.

After landing on the ground, Xiao Lin breathed a sigh of relief and opened his eyes. Two spiritual lights flashed away, and at the same time an astonishing spiritual pressure suddenly spread, but it only took a moment before it disappeared.

After feeling the astonishing spiritual pressure, Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao almost jumped up in fright.

They had almost only experienced this kind of spiritual pressure from the few Foundation-Building Dzogchen monks in the sect.

"Is it possible that Xiao Lin has entered the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment?" Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao immediately felt that this was too ridiculous. A few days ago, Xiao Lin was still in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. Could it be that he has entered the Foundation Establishment in the past few days? Dzogchen?

Tao Ling once again sensed Xiao Lin's cultivation level, and it was indeed the same as hers in the middle stage of foundation building. This made her eyes show doubts. Just now, she and Xiao Yishao both felt that only foundation building The amazing spiritual pressure that only Dzogchen monks can emit.

To say that he was the only one who sensed it could be said to be an illusion, but Xiao Yishao also sensed it. This is strange. Could it be that Xiao Lin had some amazing luck that actually increased his own spiritual pressure?

After Xiao Lin opened his eyes, he did not stand up, but showed a thoughtful expression. After a while, he suddenly looked up at the stone statue above his head, then stretched out his right hand and shot a dark green mana towards the chessboard. .

Mana was injected into the chessboard, and the chessboard immediately made a "buzz" sound, and then a ray of light fell from the sky and landed on the stone surface not far in front of the three people.

It was a reflected chessboard, and two ancient seals were flashing above the chessboard.

"Lang Huan?" Seeing the two ancient seal characters, the well-informed Tao Ling read out in a low voice.

"Phew." At this time, a green light shot out from the statue of the man playing chess, landed next to the chessboard, and condensed into a human-shaped light and shadow. At first glance, it looked exactly like the statue of the man playing chess above the three heads. Exactly the same.

Not only that, the two boxes of black and white chess pieces that were originally stuck on the stone wall above the three people also fell down one after another, landing on both sides of the blue chess board.

"What's going on? This person doesn't want us to play chess with him, right?" Young Master Xiaoyi opened his mouth when he saw this scene. After a moment, he swallowed his saliva and said.

As soon as Xiao Yishao finished speaking, he found that Xiao Lin and Tao Ling were looking at him with strange expressions and couldn't help but shrink their necks.

"You don't really want to play chess with him, do you?" Xiao Yishao exclaimed.

"I think we are inseparable. It seems that we really have to play a game of chess with him." After a moment, Xiao Lin showed a bitter smile on his face, pointed to the side and said.

"Junior Brother Xiao, you are really a crow's mouth." Tao Ling's face turned a little pale, and he glanced at the direction of Xiao Lin's finger. It turned out that outside the crack, a blue light beam fell down at some point, covering them. The circuit is blocked.

"Isn't it... that we can't go back now?" Xiao Yishao discovered Guang Zhuang belatedly at this moment, with a look of horror on his face.

"I'm afraid so. Apart from going directly through the waterfall, the only other option is to play chess with him." Xiao Lin said with a sigh.

"Is Junior Brother Xiao good at playing chess?" Tao Ling asked with hope as she looked at Xiao Lin.

"Knowing nothing." Xiao Lin shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Isn't that the end? We won't be trapped here forever, right?" Xiao Yishao wailed.

"Let's take a look around first to see if there are any other mechanisms here." After thinking for a moment, Xiao Lin said to the two of them.

"Yes, yes, maybe there is another way out." Xiao Yishao heard the words and said hurriedly.

The three of them began to search in the huge cracks in the rocks. During the process, Xiao Lin also tried to attack the cyan light beam. What he did not expect was that the light beam seemed to be connected to the mountain above them.

Every attack caused the rocks above to shake violently, as if they would fall down at any time.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Lin immediately stopped attacking the green light beam. He was joking. The mountain above them didn't know how big it was. Just looking at the waterfall, he knew that the rock was definitely connected to the huge mountain above.

Once it falls, let alone them, even the old monster Nascent Soul probably won't be able to bear it.

Xiao Lin also gave up paying attention to the green light, and instead started searching everywhere with Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao. The three of them searched every inch of the mountain crevice. Xiao Lin even flew to I searched carefully for a long time at the statue of the Four True Spirits above my head.

After searching for most of the day, they gave up.

"It seems that the only way to play chess with him is to play chess with him." Tao Ling looked depressed, pointed at the cyan figure standing still, and said depressedly.

Xiao Lin came to the chessboard, looked at the chess pieces on it, and remained silent for a long time.

The same goes for Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao. Since there is no other way out, they can only choose to accompany the Qingying to finish the chess game.

The three of them stared at the chess game for a long time, but couldn't make out anything. The cyan figure was also quite patient, looking at the chess piece in his hand without moving.

"I'll give it a try." After an hour, Tao Ling finally couldn't bear it any longer. She walked to the opposite side of the cyan figure, thought for a while, and moved slightly towards the black chessboard.

A flash of light flashed, and a sunspot fell on the chessboard.

"Buzz." The entire chessboard emitted a cyan light, and the cyan figure that had been silent and still finally moved and slowly raised its head.
