The Golden Elixir Road

Chapter 157: Fighting the Demon

The news that the Beiyuan Wang family was destroyed by Wang Teng himself soon spread throughout Beidou. No one knew why he did this, and this incident was beyond Wang Zizai's expectations.

In the ruins of Wang's family, Wang Zizai was trying to deduce the mysteries of fate, wanting to see what had happened in the long river of time.

Who would have thought that a thick fog would rise above the long river of time, and the same was true when calculating Wang Teng's whereabouts.

"Demon Lord Po Xun!"

This was the only reason he could think of. Concealing the secrets of heaven was not something that the practitioners in this world could do.

"A disaster is about to happen!"

Wang Zizai seemed to see countless demons appearing in the universe, a scene of chaos.

"Crack" "Crack"...

A young man walked over to the horizon, clapping his hands. "As expected of someone who has studied all three religions, you guessed it was me right away."

"The Demon Lord comes here in the body of a demon disciple. Is he trying to demonstrate to me?" Wang Zizai's heart was filled with alarm.

"Wang Zizai, even your name is consistent with my demonic path. If you join my demonic path, I will pass on the position of the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon to you and ensure that you will become a Daluo. What do you think?" said Bo Xun.

"I have my own way. If the Demon Lord still wants to seduce me, then there is no need." Wang Zizai refused.

"Well, I'm here to challenge you to a duel today." Bo Xun said with a smile, "But don't worry, it's not a fight. If that were the case, I wouldn't be able to do anything to you with my cultivation in this flesh."

"How about we play a game of hands?"

"Play chess?" Wang Zizai said, "I don't know how to play chess."

"It's simple. With your current level, as long as you know the rules, you can learn it quickly." Bo Xun explained the rules of Go.

Wang Zizai also mastered it quickly. At his current level, his computing power is even stronger than that of a supercomputer.

However, what the two are going to play is not ordinary Go, but a three-dimensional one, with nineteen vertical, horizontal and vertical lines, forming a complex three-dimensional chessboard.

There are six breaths around each particle, which is two more breaths than on a flat surface, but the complexity is greatly increased.

"What is the stakes?" Wang Zizai asked. It was impossible that Boxun was looking for him to kill time.

"If I win, you are not allowed to spread the great Dao to the world within a hundred years. If I spread the magic Dao, you are not allowed to interfere. If you win, I will not spread the magic Dao within a hundred years, and you can teach the world. Be prepared."

Wang Zizai nodded in agreement after a brief consideration. Poxun was confident of his profound Taoism and wanted to buy a hundred years to turn this world into a demon world.

If Wang Zizai did not accept the challenge, there would inevitably be flaws in his state of mind, and he would lose the courage and determination to make progress.

Bo Xun waved his sleeves, and a three-dimensional chessboard made of spiritual light appeared in front of him, and the two large stones turned into two stone benches.

"please!"

The two sat down and the question of who goes first came up. In ancient Go, most of the time, White plays first, especially against the opponent.

Po Xun said: "Let God decide who goes first. There is no need to calculate. If the number of people who come here first is odd, then I go first. If the number is even, then you go first."

Wang Zizai nodded in agreement. After the Wang family encountered trouble, many people came here every day to look for opportunities. He thought that someone would come soon.

Unexpectedly, God seemed to be against the two of them today, and no one came after waiting for a long time.

The sun set and still no one came, but the two of them were not in the least bit anxious. With their state of mind, they wouldn't get annoyed even if they waited a long time.

"Hey!" In the middle of the night, a golden light streaked across the sky and landed here, revealing the majestic figure of the Great Saint Body.

"Why are you here? Who is this?" The Great Saint Body beat the Forbidden Zone Supreme so hard that some people in the Forbidden Zone had already fled away from Beidou, preparing to come back when the road to becoming an immortal was opened.

While he was considering his next target, he heard that a heartless and ruthless person appeared here, so he ran over to take a look.

Now that he can finally move freely, it is time for him to enjoy his freedom. He will not hide in the ancient forbidden land for the time being.

“Senior, please keep your mind alert to avoid being taken away by the Demon Lord.” Wang Zizai reminded him. However, since he had the Zhuxian Sword in his body, Wang Zizai did not need to worry too much.

"What a strong physique, it's a pity that its lifespan has come to an end, and it can only be suppressed by the innate spiritual treasure." Bo Xun glanced at the Great Saint Body and said.

The Great Saint Body felt a chill in his heart, and he could tell his own strengths and weaknesses with just one glance.

"Please come in, Demon Lord." Wang Zizai said.

At the same time, he said to the Great Saint Body: "Senior, don't let anyone come over here anymore."

"You are really cautious."

Bo Xun casually condensed a white piece and placed it in the center of the chessboard.

Once the chess piece falls, it is no longer a simple chess piece, but carries the will of Po Xun. In this big world, who else but me?
A majestic demonic intention was heard, and Wang Zizai even felt the chessboard was in a trance. The world was so big, but there was no place to place the chess piece. He knew that this was caused by the will of Po Xun.

"The Demon Lord's reputation is so great that I can never be too careful."

There was a flash of light in his hand, and a black piece appeared in his hand. What does the world's situation have to do with me? I hold on to the great path and walk alone. With a snap, the small flying piece fell. I walk alone and control your path. Another kind of will is generated. Those who prevent me from transcending, the ancestors will be killed, and the Buddhas will be killed!

As soon as the two pieces fell, it was like the birth of the world and the separation of yin and yang. The demon lord Bo Xun did not make a move immediately, but fell into another state. Time passed little by little, and the day was almost dawn. However, for the two of them, it had no effect at all. When the third piece fell, nearly three hours had passed and the east was already turning white.

The two men played very slowly. This was no longer just a game of chess, but a comprehensive contest of chess skills, skills and will. However, after only four or five pieces, they were already at their peak and the two men were not in a hurry.

The two of them were playing chess here, and every move was very slow. Both of them were immersed in it. For Wang Zizai, it was a huge challenge, but also a great opportunity.

It was like Bo Xun expressing his Tao through chess and letting Wang Zizai see it. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Bo Xun also openly displayed the essence of the devil without any concealment, allowing Wang Zizai to fully experience it. It would be even better if he could enter the devil's way because of this.

Wang Zizai's understanding of the Tao also became clearer. What Bo Xun said was right, the devil's path was actually part of the Tao.

The devil is the tribulation! Without going through tribulations, how can one achieve enlightenment?

The devil holds on to desires, believing that without desires, how can one be considered a human being? When facing desires, one should not avoid them, but go against the current, satisfy them, control them, and eventually fight with the heaven and earth for a ray of hope to promote the development of civilization.

Think about it, every bit of progress in human society is born out of desire. Even spiritual practice is the same. If you have no desire to live forever or seek the great way, what is the point of spiritual practice?

However, those who practice the right path discover that it is easier to get to the source by reducing desires. Many times, desires cover up the true nature, so there is the saying "For the sake of the Tao, one loses more day by day!" But don't forget the previous sentence: "For the sake of learning, one gains more day by day."

Only at this point did Wang Zizai have a true understanding of the devil's way. He made up for the missing parts in his practice and was on the verge of becoming one with the devil and the way of Taoism.

For the immortals, maintaining the order of heaven and earth is a merit. For the demons, destroying the world and preventing people from achieving enlightenment are merits, and are also part of conforming to the great way of heaven and earth.

Of course, the devil doesn't dare to destroy a world for no reason. Only when the end of that world comes and it reaches its end, will he dare to destroy it. Only then can it be considered a merit.

The two men moved very slowly, and each step took more than a day to complete, with constant verification and scrutiny. For Wang Zizai, this was equivalent to repeatedly tempering and testing the Tao he had previously comprehended, constantly eliminating the false and retaining the true.
