The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 278 Endless
Including Lin Bai and Li Wusheng who had just arrived, there were seven people in the hall.

At this time, Li Wusheng was lying in front of a huge stone pillar, looking at the chessboard with a worried look on his face.

Ying Wangtian was standing in front of a chessboard in the middle, talking to a man and a woman next to him, and laughing happily.

Yin Yan sat alone in a corner of the hall, closing his eyes and resting.

Lin Bai and Mu Zhen were sitting in front of another chessboard, talking via telepathy.

“Junior Sister Mu, do you want to gamble again?” Ying Wangtian said with a smile.

"How can I spoil my fun, brother?" Mu Zhen smiled sweetly.

"Then let's bet on whether Junior Brother Du can break through." Ying Wangtian was a modest gentleman, gentle as jade, and then looked at Lin Bai and asked with a smile: "Junior Brother Zhuanlun, are you interested?"

"That's what I want! I don't understand either, how about I just follow Senior Sister Mu and place a bet?" Lin Bai agreed with a smile.

Both sides agreed and agreed on the win-loss ratio.

"This man is stubborn and self-righteous, thinks highly of himself, and doesn't know how to restrain himself. He offends me repeatedly. I want to kill him!" Mu Zhen handed over the spirit stone, set the stakes, and sent a message to Lin Bai with a smile on his face.

"Sister Zhen, just go ahead and do it. I was taught by the Gu family to act with kindness and righteousness, make friends with people from all over the world, and never do anything that is against others and morality! But if Sister Zhen does it, I will not stop her." Lin Bai spoke righteously, like a gentleman.

"I'll allow you to ask a question, or I'll give you something that can save your life!" Mu Zhen offered a reward.

"I am willing to die for Sister Zhen!" Lin Bai agreed immediately.

"What are you two talking about?" Ying Wangtian asked when he saw Lin Mu and the other two communicating continuously.

"Lin Zhuanlun wants to make friends with Senior Brother Ying and asked me what he likes!" Mu Zhen smiled gently.

Lin Bai humbly bowed slightly towards Ying Wangtian with a smile on his face.

"If he is a disciple from the previous life, he can naturally make friends with me. It's just that the Gu family is a little inferior. However, Junior Brother Hulu is Junior Sister Li's adoptive father, so it is still a little different." Ying Wangtian smiled.

"Brother, you are joking." Lin Bai smiled and bowed again.

Ying Wangtian smiled slightly, snorted coldly, and said no more.

Lin Bai didn't bother to please the cold butt, and he really hated this person in his heart.

"I have been diligent and kind to others all my life, but after you came, I started to make enemies with others!" Lin Bai complained to Sister Chao Zhen.

"You decide whether to kill him or not!" Mu Zhen said angrily.

"We'll talk about it when there's a chance..." Lin Bai has always been cautious in his life.

The two chatted for a while, and Lin Bai asked about what happened here.

According to Sister Zhen, the origin of this hall is unknown, and its height is unknown, as is the height of the nine supporting stone pillars.

Each stone pillar seemed to be cut off by a sword, but they did not fall down. Instead, the broken part was supported by a chessboard world. The people who took the trial were all inside the chessboard. Only when they left the chessboard could they be considered to have passed the trial.

The nine ways of leaving the chessboard were different. Yin Yan was the first to pass, Mu Zhen was the second, and then Ying Wangtian and the other two passed together.

Lin Bai went forward to check the chessboards one by one. It was true that the person who made the first move had the advantage and could hear and see other chessboards. In addition to not knowing what was in his mind, no matter what action he made or what kind of magical power he displayed, he could not escape being spied on.

"Fortunately, I followed the secular rules and flew in the air. I didn't show any escape skills, nor did I use any other magical powers." Lin Bai sighed in his heart and felt relieved.

After checking the chessboards on the stone pillars one by one, and specifically avoiding the one that Li Wusheng was looking at, Lin Bai walked around the hall again.

Ying Wangtian saw that Lin Bai was investigating seriously and ignored him. The two people with him kept laughing.

Lin Bai was very disappointed. Ying Wangtian was Li Wusheng's senior brother, and he was Li Wusheng's godfather, but they didn't even have the slightest courtesy. It was really disappointing!
"Let's find an opportunity to kill them! Although I am a kind-hearted person, but Sister Zhen has the intention to kill, so I will naturally stand on Sister Zhen's side!"

Lin Bai is a sincere gentleman, so he would definitely not kill anyone for no reason.

"Oh, if Miaomiao were here, she would definitely be able to give me a better reason to kill!" Lin Bai couldn't help but think of his good disciple.

Although the disciple has the flavor of a sycophant, he is actually worried about his master first!
After thinking for a while, I wanted to talk to Sister Zhen again, but Li Wusheng came up to me.

"King Gourd, you have a lot of ideas. Think of a way to help your senior brother Mo!" Li Wusheng held Lin Bai's sleeve tightly, but his eyes were looking at the chessboard with concern.

"How can I help with the trial?" Lin Bai was shocked. It was really unreliable that Li Wusheng did not ask for help from his senior brother Ying Wangtian but came to ask for help from his godfather!

"You and I are in the mortal world, so I naturally know what you are capable of!" Li Wusheng did not let go at all, and it was obvious that he had Lin Bai in his grasp.

The two of them have stayed in the chessboard secret realm for several lifetimes. She knows that this junior brother Zhuanlun has some abilities. Although she doesn't know how good he is in fighting, in terms of knowledge and understanding, and even the ability to rebel and counterattack, he is indeed not bad.

Lin Bai sighed and said in a voice transmission, "Brother Ying is a scholar of great learning, and the descendant of the Lord of Jiuzha Mountain. You are asking the blind for advice!"

"If I ask him, I will only bring shame upon myself! He always looks down on me, so I won't ask!" Li Wusheng was also angry.

Lin Bai thought about it, then shook his head and said, "Senior Sister, I really have no choice."

He spread his hands, looking helpless.

"After all, they have been friends for many years. Even though we have turned against each other, we still have the relationship between father and daughter. We should help them when necessary." Li Wusheng said.

"..." Lin Bai really admired this Senior Sister Li. For the sake of her lover, she really didn't care about her dignity at all and actually acknowledged him as her godfather.

"Brother Hulu, this place is helpful for achieving the Nascent Soul stage. I only hope to help Brother Cheng a little so that he can make some progress." Li Wusheng conveyed the message very sincerely.

Lin Bai admired him very much!

"Senior Sister, I'm just a country bumpkin..." Lin Bai kept shaking his head.

"I owe you a favor!" Li Wusheng finally promised.

"It may not work!" Lin Bai was still very sincere.

"Whether it succeeds or not, I owe you a big favor!" Li Wusheng grabbed Lin Bai's sleeve and nodded very vigorously.

"Mo Yingcheng treats you well!" Seeing Lin and Li communicating with each other endlessly, Mu Zhen hurriedly sent a message.

Lin Bai never thought that he was so unbearable in Sister Zhen's eyes, and he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh!
Helplessly, Lin Bai agreed to Li Wusheng's request and looked at the chessboard carefully.

The chessboard where Mo Yingcheng was located was a vast mountain forest, filled with monsters and beasts, all of which were skilled in fighting.

Mo Yingcheng and his two teammates were beaten and ran around like headless flies.

Lin Bai carefully imaged the place where Mo Yingcheng was in his mind, closed his eyes, walked over to the stone plate, and described it in detail.

A tiny world appeared before his eyes. Lin Bai was confident that he could touch and influence the special features of this place, but he still stopped.

Opening his eyes, Lin Bai looked at Li Wusheng sincerely and sighed, "I can't do anything. Senior sister, think about it, if I can help, is the trial still a trial?"

Li Wusheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "That's right."

She stopped making a fuss and went to find Ying Wangtian to ask them how to escape the trial.

Lin Bai had some free time, so he sat cross-legged on the ground and couldn't help but think of stories of old friends.

When he stepped into the Wuxiang Tomb, he experienced many strange things. In the end, he defeated Qu Chengjia, killed Yue Fengshu, obtained the Creation Technique, and collected the gourd.

Then, when leaving Wuxiang Tomb, they saw a strange sight. They actually glimpsed a large hall. There were corpses scattered around Jiang Xingchi, and he was looking at a chessboard.

At that time, Lin Bai did not see how the chess pieces were arranged on the chessboard, but the shape of the hall seemed to be quite similar to this place.

Based on his many encounters with Jiang Xingchi, Lin Bai concluded that his destiny should be a chessboard. If so, Jiang Xingchi seemed to have inherited this heritage, or perhaps he had gained something else.

"Jiang Xingchi has a good chance of achieving Nascent Soul."

"If he has really been here before, then this is still the place where the Taoist Master Wuxiang stays!"

"Before, at the bottom of the Endless River, Li Wusheng said that those fluorite pebbles were left behind when the Wuxiang Taoist Master was hit by the Sword Immortal and his magic weapon was shattered..."

"The Endless River was cut by a mighty sword, and the Taoist Master Wuxiang is an all-knowing figure. Could he really be injured by this sword?"

Lin Bai muttered to himself for a long time but got nothing. He just hoped to find some clues.

Anyway, there was a sense of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, and the stone tablet was also warm, just like the day when I entered the Wuxiang Tomb.

Lin Bai concluded that there was a treasure here, and it was in harmony with his own destiny or the path he was looking for!
He went back to the corner and sat next to Mu Zhen.

"Did you gain anything?" Mu Zhen saw Lin Bai pondering for a while and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"No." Lin Bai shook his head and asked in a voice transmission, "Did Sister Zhen get anything?"

"This is the place where the Taoist master Wuxiang is located."

Mu Zhen was very sure, "With the ability of the Wuxiang Taoist Master, the Taoist temple must be extremely vast. This place is just one of her creations, and it will slowly disappear as time goes by."

"What is the origin of Taoist Master Wuxiang, and who killed him?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

"A tree that stands out in the forest will naturally be troubled by others."

Mu Zhen smiled and whispered, "In this world, there are the East Sea Region, the South Sky Region, the North Wilderness Region, the West Mysterious Region, and the Central Plains Holy Land. The Taoist Master Wuxiang is a rising star, and her Taoist temple occupies a place in the East Sea Region. It's a pity that the heavens are jealous of talents. Although she has achieved success in her Taoism, she is bound to fall."

Lin Bai did not dare to ask in detail, as Sister Zhen had said before that if she had anything to say, it would be known.

Presumably, the person who suppressed and killed the Taoist Master Wuxiang, or the person who gathered everyone together to suppress and kill the Taoist Master Wuxiang, must be extremely powerful!

"What realm is it?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

"Generally speaking..." Mu Zhen paused for a moment and said with a smile: "My generation of Jindan cultivators are naturally not up to par. If we achieve the Yuanying stage, we can get a glimpse of the wonders of the Great Dao. And when we reach the Shenhua stage, we have already entered the inner world, and every move we make is the power of the Great Dao. The difference between one Shenhua cultivator and another is even greater than the difference between a Shenhua cultivator and a Qi training cultivator. Those who comprehend the Great Dao can easily kill those of the same level."

Mu Zhen sighed, "Above the Spiritualization Stage is the Void Refining Stage. It is said that if one can harmonize the sound of the Great Dao and even the Great Dao with the body, then he can be called the Dao Master."

"How many Taoist masters are there in the world?" Lin Bai asked again.

"As far as I know, after the death of Master Wuxiang, there are still eight in total." Mu Zhen said.

"Eight... Formless Taoist Masters have fallen. Doesn't that make the number nine?" Lin Bai understood that the person who killed the Formless Taoist Master must also be one of the Taoist Masters, or even more than one.

And Sister Zhen’s ancestor might be a Taoist master, or at least a high-level cultivator of the Divine Transformation Realm!
"We are just ants now, it's too early to think about these things." Seeing Lin Bai was speechless, Mu Zhen gently patted his shoulder and said, "The road is infinite. We just need to move forward step by step, and we will surely reach the uninhabited land!"

"The next Taoist Master Wuxiang?" Lin Bai smiled.

Mu Zhen naturally understood what Lin Bai meant. He meant that when one’s cultivation reached the level of the Taoist Master Wuxiang, he would be strangled to death again.

"Someone will help." Mu Zhen said.

Lin Bai nodded, with a look of determination and yearning on his face again.

"You are always not afraid of difficulties and have an indomitable spirit." Mu Zhen said softly, "I want to sleep with you."

"..." Lin Bai was speechless. He looked around and saw that there seemed to be no place to sleep...

The two chatted about some boring nonsense for a while, and then Mu Zhen was called over by Ying Wangtian to continue talking about the bet.

Lin Bai was not idle either, and continued to look at the chessboard one by one.

After looking at them one by one, Lin Bai only hoped to remember the chessboard in his mind so that he could replicate it on the stone plate, which would then help him in refining the gourd.

"Haha, Junior Sister Mu, you lost again!"

Five days later, Du Changying broke out of the trial, and Ying Wangtian went to find Mu Zhen.

Mu Zhen lost the bet, so he handed over the spirit stone obediently. "Brother Ying not only has infinite magical powers, but also has an excellent ability to judge people!"

"Junior sister, you are too kind." Ying Wangtian took the spirit stones nonchalantly. He didn't value these spirit stones, he just wanted to have fun.

"I know Lin Zhuanlun from the Daoyin Sect. I think he is no ordinary person. What do you think, senior brother?" Mu Zhen asked with a smile.

Ying Wangtian looked at Lin Bai from head to toe, his eyes gleaming with light, and said, "Although he certainly has his strengths, he gained power by clinging to the Gu family, and lost his inferiority! I heard that Gu Qingshui, the Nascent Soul of the Gu family, is extremely beautiful, but she rarely interacts with others, and only dotes on Lin Zhuanlun. Haha, even high-level cultivators are not free from worldly desires. This Lin Zhuanlun must have moved to the Qingyun Mountain of the Gu family!"

"Brother, you have a good idea! This Lin Zhuanlun is indeed a pervert!" Mu Zhen's face darkened and he transmitted his voice, "When I was in Daoyin Sect, this person always pestered me. I couldn't say anything because of the reputation of the Qiaoshan Gu Clan."

“Junior sister wants to…” Ying Wangtian smiled.

"Now that we have entered the secret realm, our life and death are determined by fate!" Mu Zhen transmitted the message and smiled at Ying looking up at the sky.

"Junior sister is kind and has a strong determination to pursue the truth, so you will naturally get what you wish for." Ying Wangtian nodded.

This means that if there is a chance, they will help get rid of Lin Zhuanlun!
Lin Bai was looking at a chessboard when he suddenly felt a chill in his heart and a vague sense of uneasiness.

Looking around, Li Wusheng was still worried about his lover, Yin Yan was sitting cross-legged, and Sister Zhen was chatting and laughing with Ying Wangtian.

"Did Sister Zhen sell me out? She just said she was going to sleep!" Lin Bai muttered to himself.

"Thank you, Senior Brother." Mu Zhen smiled, bowed to Ying Wangtian, and then left. He sent a message to Lin Bai, saying, "Ying Wangtian wants to kill you! I can't stop him!"

"You were the one who instigated it, right?" Lin Bai didn't believe that anyone would be an enemy of a good man like himself.

"Believe it or not!" Mu Zhen said.

"..." Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, and replied: "We have entered the Jindan stage, we are weak and have always been kind to others. Senior Brother Ying is a child of destiny, how could he see someone like me? How could he have the intention to kill me?"

"Then I don't care." Mu Zhen smiled.

"..." Lin Bai lost his temper and said in a voice transmission: "Okay Sister Zhen, let's discuss this."

"Okay!" Mu Zhen smiled.

The two men squatted in a corner of the hall, sitting cross-legged with expressionless faces, and kept communicating with each other.

This was the first time that Lin Bai and Sister Zhen teamed up to assassinate someone, so naturally they had to make more preparations. Unfortunately, both of them had such bad intentions that they didn't even want to say what magical powers they had.

After a long time of fussing, Lin Bai realized that both of them understood the method of alchemy, the art of formation, and the wonders of dual cultivation...

As for the means of fighting the enemy and the power of the magic weapon, not a single word was revealed.

"Kill your ass! Sharing the same bed with different dreams, that's what it's like." Lin Bai sighed.

After waiting for another three days, Mo Yingcheng finally passed the test. Although he was embarrassed, he finally relieved Li Wusheng's longing for him.

Before Mo Yingcheng greeted his adoptive father, Ying Wangtian stood under the nine pillars and said loudly: "Nine of us, let's see how the sword cuts out the Endless River!"

He put his hand on the chessboard, and the nine pillars appeared and disappeared.

When everyone was at a loss, they saw a boundless sword light coming across, as if it could cut everything in the world apart.

Or perhaps, even the infinity of time will be divided in two.
