Chapter 298 Life and Death Chess Game

The sudden closing of the tomb door made everyone startled, but they were also people who had seen strong winds and waves, so they didn't care much at the moment.

A few people took out the fire pockets from their bodies, and the dark space was instantly illuminated, revealing a deep stone step.

The stone steps lead down, with no end in sight, and it's pitch black, like a wild beast with a huge mouth open, which makes people tremble with fear.

A few warriors with weak cultivation bases or those from minor forces were pushed to the front to lead the way.

In this kind of place, the weak do not have the right to speak. Although they are reluctant in their hearts, they can only choose to walk in front and lead the way for everyone.

"Senior, what are the ghosts in the underworld you mentioned just now?" Yang Chen walked among the crowd and asked Gu Tianji silently in his heart.

Gu Tianji pondered for a while, and said: "The so-called underworld is different from the human world. You can say that it is a special magnetic field. When human beings die, their souls will be attracted by this magnetic field and then sucked into it. After the fear and awe of death, this magnetic field is also named the underworld by humans."

"Generally speaking, it is impossible for creatures in the underworld to appear under certain circumstances, but there are some secret methods that distort this magnetic field. For example, space cracks actually rely on brute force to change the magnetic field, and through this situation Now, the channel between the human world and the underworld will be connected to each other, and creatures in the underworld can also travel to and from the human world through this channel." Gu Tianji said slowly.

I see.

Yang Chen nodded, smiled wryly and said, "But senior, you haven't told me what happened to creatures from the underworld."

"Don't worry, my lord, am I going to tell you?" Gu Tianji laughed and said, "The world is ever-changing, and there are different creatures in every world. For example, monsters are products of our world. In the same way, skeleton ghost soldiers are also products of the underworld."

"For example, there are many races in the Canglan Continent, and there are also many races in the underworld. It's as simple as that."

this……

Yang Chen was dumbfounded: "This explanation is too simple, isn't it different from no explanation?"

"Otherwise?" Gu Tianji said angrily: "Do you want me to explain to you the theory of biological evolution? Tell you, how are living things formed?"

hear this...

Yang Chen smiled wryly and didn't speak any more.

And at this moment——

A voice came suddenly, and the person walking in front turned his head and said, "Everyone, it's the end!"

Hearing this, everyone immediately stopped in their tracks, picked up the torches and took pictures.

At the end of the stone ladder, there are three caves.

Each hole leads to a different path.

Tao Qiusheng was silent for a while, and led everyone from Lihuo Palace to the entrance of the cave on the right.

As for the disciples of Tianjian Villa and the Lei family, the important task was to go to the entrance of the cave on the left. Tianqing Mansion and the others pondered for a moment, and followed the disciples of those two forces into the entrance of the cave on the left.

Others were bustling, some went to the left, some went to the right, but very few went to the middle.

After all, Lihuo Palace, Tianjian Villa, Lei Family and Tianqing Mansion are all first-class powerhouses, and the chances of winning will be better if you follow them.

"Great Emperor, which way shall we go?" Gu Tianji asked.

"Let's go in the middle." Yang Chen pondered for a while, and said, "There are powerful forces on the left and right, and it's hard to deal with. We just came in now, so we should try our best to avoid conflicts with them."

These words were immediately approved by Gu Tianji.

Thinking of this, Yang Chen directly raised his foot and walked into the middle hole.

...

However, when Yang Chen walked into the cave, a strange scene appeared.

Inside the cave were two huge stone figures. The stone figures were tens of meters tall and extremely tall. They were sitting on the ground with a huge machete at their waists.

This machete is not made of stone, but a real knife. It is more than ten meters long, shining with sharp light, and looks majestic.

But what really caught Yang Chen's attention was that there was a chessboard between the two stone men!

The chessboard is also made of stone, with grid characters engraved on it, including the Chu River and Han Dynasty, it is completely a chessboard that has been magnified countless times.

Below the chessboard, there are more than a dozen skeletons piled up, all of them seem to have died under the chessboard.

Seeing this scene, everyone stopped and looked at the two stone men with vigilance.

But at this moment, I saw a warrior who didn't know what he found, all the warriors surrounded him, and Yang Chen also walked up and cast curious eyes.

In front of everyone, there was a huge stone tablet with three big characters engraved on it.

Life and death chess!

And under these three words, there is another line of small characters.

"If you want to pass, you must first complete the game of life and death, and those who pass can enter the second floor!" A warrior said quietly.

"Second floor? Is there something else on this ancient tomb?" A martial artist asked, but what he said was nonsense.

Everyone ignored him, but looked at the words on the stone tablet seriously and pondered.

"Do you really have to play chess to pass?"

"How to play such a big chessboard?"

"That's right, there's not even a chess piece here, how can I play?"

A group of people whispered, and some were in trouble.

"No, you don't need chess pieces!" At this moment, a middle-aged man in his fifties suddenly spoke, and said in a low tone.

"It turned out to be Mr. Chen!"

Seeing this person, everyone immediately clasped their fists and showed respect.

This Mr. Chen's name is Chen Beilong, and he comes from the Chen family in Floating Cloud City.

The Chen family is a big family in the Ming country, and its head is a master of the late peak of the Great Martial Master, who is only a hair away from the Martial Ancestor Realm. Even in the Ming country, he is still a person who can speak, and belongs to the first-class power of the Ming country.

And this Chen Beilong is the eldest son of Patriarch Chen.

Yang Chen took a look. This person looked gentle, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, he looked gentle, and he really had the temperament of coming from a big family.

I just heard Chen Beilong say: "Everyone, please listen to me. I observed carefully just now and found that this game is not a simple game of chess." Speaking of this, Chen Beilong waved his hand and said: "Everyone, please come with me."

Everyone immediately followed and walked to the side of the chessboard.

Hearing this, everyone immediately looked over, and Yang Chen also observed for a while, but he suddenly discovered that there were many footprints on these chessboards.

"Footprints?" Yang Chen spat out two words.

"That's right." Chen Beilong nodded, glanced at Yang Chen, and said with a smile: "So if I'm not wrong, this game of chess is not simply playing chess, but everyone present jumping on the chessboard, Take people as sons and finish this game of chess!"
