Faced with Chao's domineering and exasperated words, Ji Donglai also retorted sarcastically:
"What era are we living in? Why are you still comparing martial arts skills? Let's compare weapons!"

"How can you become a superpowered expert if you have weapons and don't use them!"

"Old fogies, times have changed!"

Outside Guiyun Peak, a blinding light flashed once again.

Before that antimatter, powerful enough to destroy mountains, exploded in the Superpower's silver-gray palm,
The destructive energy was immediately enveloped by a mysterious force field.

This is a special use of the fiery energy generated by the transformation of the mind's image into reality, called "Ultraman's Will".

This technique allows you to bypass conventional physical contact and directly interfere with the enemy using your mind.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Superpower did his best to reverse the Earth's magnetic field, causing his body to retreat as if fleeing for his life.

I just hope to be further away from the source of the disaster and suffer less harm from food.

But it only lasted for less than 0.01 seconds before the energy from the antimatter explosion broke free of its restraints and shot into the sky with even more terrifying energy.

After the Superpower's body came into contact with the energy, its molecular structure trembled violently at the microscopic level, and its silver-gray paint dissipated into particles like a pencil drawing that had been erased.

Under the witness of all living beings in the country, the super-powerful half of his arm was immediately swallowed up.

Cracks appeared on its body, and everything was decomposed and torn apart wherever the antimatter passed.

Superpower looked on with despair at the approaching wave of destruction, which seemed to spread from his arm and engulf his entire body.

A body that's only 50 meters long isn't very maneuverable; if it gets hit by an explosion, it'll be seriously injured or killed on the spot.

Just when everyone watching, including Superba himself, thought the worst was yet to come, an accident occurred.

At this critical moment of life and death, a figure stood in front of Superb without hesitation.

Superb isn't fighting alone anymore!
Is it Xiang Hongtu?

It's not a grand plan!
It was that fourth-rank chess master who escaped from the antimatter fire lotus.

But what's the point of having him stand in front of you?

The old man's body was far less tempered and refined than Xiang Hongtu's, who was at the peak of the fourth stage.

The physical body would probably be destroyed in an instant upon contact!

The answer is inheritance!
Without flinching, amidst the astonishment, shock, and a touch of emotion in Superpower's eyes, the old man resolutely charged headlong into the destructive force of the antimatter collapse.

The next moment, a solemn and resonant old voice came from the old man's heart.

"Chessboard—unfold!"

The next instant, a mysterious black and white magic array spread out from beneath his feet and rapidly expanded.

Then, Ji Donglai, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, was stunned to see his body being forcibly moved to the scene.

Before him lay the rampaging antimatter bomb and the old man's sly smile.

Immediately, a cold and emotionless voice rang in the minds of Ji Donglai, Fang Can, and Lan Huo Wang.

[Yi Tianxing has requested a game from you. Due to your initiative in attacking, the game has been forcibly started!]

Guess within three seconds!

As the voice echoed in their minds, everyone noticed that the pillar of fire that was about to engulf the old man was immediately suppressed by an invisible force and then extinguished.

Taking advantage of the moment when the antimatter disappeared, the Superpower immediately moved to the rear.

Although it was only a brief contact, Superb's right arm below the elbow has completely disappeared.

The energy of the light particles that make up the body radiates outwards from the broken opening like blood.

The transformed Superpower is essentially a high-density energy body. As the substances in other parts of its body are continuously replenished, Superpower's half-arm immediately regenerates.

In a split second, while Ji Donglai was in a daze,

Seizing this momentary opening, Superb suddenly spread his arms wide.

As the prismatic crystal on his chest burst forth with intense white light, the clouds within a radius of a hundred miles were torn into spiral-shaped fissures by an invisible force field.

A large amount of mental energy is converted into energy, and a massive amount of light particle effects rapidly converge from the body to the chest.

Then, Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse crossed his left arm across his chest and raised his right arm forward, making an L-shaped gesture.

"Washing Socks (Secret Technique of the Domain: Zepelion Ray) —"

It was accompanied by a roar that shattered the mountains.

Seeing this, Yi Tianxing hurriedly said, "Stop it, Brother Chi Huo! Don't waste your energy."

But it was too late to warn them; a magnificent scene was simultaneously reflected in the eyes of everyone.

The high-density light particles had now been compressed into a flowing liquid waterfall of light.

The next instant, a blue-white beam of light, several meters in diameter, pierced through the sky and earth.

The air along the way was ionized into a dark blue plasma, and the rocks on the ground melted into crimson glass in the aftershocks of the dissipating energy.

A massive stream of white particles, enough to easily raze a large city to the ground, poured out at the speed of light from the raised right forearm of the Giant Mountain Super Power.

By the time Ji Donglai realized what was happening, he was too late to dodge and thought to himself that he was about to be bombarded with gold coins after taking the full damage of the ultimate move.

But then a shocking scene unfolded.

The energy particle waterfall of the Zaperion Ray was completely blocked as if it had encountered an invisible wall, posing no threat whatsoever.

"Huh (What's going on???) --"

After finishing the move, Superpower stared in astonishment at the two people separated by the black and white chessboard.

As he repaired his body and unleashed his finishing move with all his might, the prismatic crystal on his chest gradually dimmed from its warm white light, then transformed into a constantly flashing red glow.

While flashing, it also emits a regular "beep beep beep" sound.

After that frantic burst of energy, he probably only had less than a minute left to maintain his transformation. Only then did the old man, Yi Tianxing, realize he was filled with regret and slapped his thigh in frustration:

"Oh dear! How foolish of me! I'm invincible in the first-mover state, otherwise why would I dare to go up and tank the damage for you?"

Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse: "Ha (What? Why didn't you say so sooner!)—"

While the two were talking, Ji Donglai and the others had already begun to seriously study the chessboard formed by the individual squares of the game beneath them.

Without them needing to study it, the massive amount of rule information after the chessboard was set up had already been transmitted into everyone's minds without reservation.

This is an absolutely fair and life-or-death Go match.

[Having the right to completely block external interference when in the coin toss or move phase]

[When guessing first or placing a piece, you cannot leave the opponent's range of 100 kilometers.]

Once defeated, the defeated unit will suffer damage at the peak of the fourth rank.

……

With Bai Xiaosheng's live broadcast, the rules of Go naturally came into the public eye.

"So that's how it is. Once you enter the 'guess first' state, you're absolutely invincible?"

A look of realization flashed across Xiang Ziyu's eyes, and she quickly understood how Yi Tianxing and Yan Chuqing had survived.

It's likely that by challenging Yan Chuqing to a game of chess, he directly used the three-second invincibility frame effect to forcefully break through the antimatter encirclement.

'Trouble...'

Fang Can's group frowned in unison because they discovered that every superpowered individual in Ji Donglai's space was in a state of chess-playing.

It seems that because their space overlapped with Ji Donglai's, the enemy directly locked onto all seven of them.

"After the defeat, he suffered damage at the peak of the fourth rank..."

Everyone was terrified.

I really don't want to think about what would happen to everyone else on the scene besides Ji Donglai if they lost.

Seeing the solemn expression on Ji Donglai's face, Yi Tianxing revealed a smug smile.

If it weren't for the fact that Ji Donglai ran too fast when he returned to Guiyun Peak, exceeding his reaction time and being out of his sight, making it impossible to lock onto him, then he would have been able to succeed.

He had already extended an invitation to play a game.

Moreover, this game cannot be triggered casually.

With such terrifying capabilities, there will inevitably be more constraints.

For example, after breaking through to the fourth stage, unless you break through again, you only have ten chances in your lifetime to win a life-or-death game.

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he used two rounds.

In theory, both parties must agree before a game can begin.

But there is one exception.

That is, if the unit that invited the game initiates an attack, the invitation will be skipped and the game will be forced to start.

That's why he dared to block antimatter just now.

Clearly, in the inheritance judgment, the antimatter was Ji Donglai's attack, which directly forced people into the game.

"We can't afford to lose this game; we can only win!"

Everyone, including Ji Donglai, was determined to succeed.

Because once defeated, Ji Donglai will be able to trigger "isolated and helpless", and no one else will be confident in taking damage at the peak level of the fourth rank.

No, how did Yan Chuqing survive the game?
Fang Can was slightly taken aback. After a moment's thought, he inquired about the inheritance and found that there was indeed an option for "summation," but they couldn't do it.

Because in this inescapable battlefield, Yi Tianxing would not give them any chance to surrender.

Thoughts flashed through Ji Donglai's mind like lightning, and he decisively said, "Fang Can, time is short, you guess first."

The so-called "guessing who goes first" refers to choosing who goes first or second in Go.

The older or higher-ranking player removes a number of white pieces from the board and lets the opponent guess whether it's odd or even.

The player with a lower skill level responds by showing one or two black stones.

If you have one black piece, you guess that your opponent has an odd number of pieces; if you have two black pieces, you guess that your opponent has an even number of pieces.

If the guess is correct, the player with the lower rank goes first; if the guess is wrong, the opponent goes first.

At this moment, Ji Donglai asked Fang Can to guess.

The idea was to have Fang Can use his luck as a person with the ability to predict the outcome to gain the upper hand in the first round of the divination.

Before everyone's eyes, the people from various countries saw for the first time the superpowered being inside Ji Donglai's body.

Inside Ji Donglai's body, Fang Can's expression was serious:

"Don't worry! Go is just a game of probability with a possible outcome of 10^768."

Facing Fang Can's expression, Yi Tianxing's face revealed a sinister smile: "Kid, Go is not as simple as you make it out to be!"

As he spoke, Yi Tianxing grabbed a handful of white mist, which transformed into a white chess piece. He then extended his right fist and said, "Let's guess who goes first!"

Fang Can didn't speak, but calmly picked up the black energy and turned it into a black chess piece in his palm.

Fang Can chose to guess that the white mist in the old man's hand was an odd number!
The moment Yi Tianxing saw the white mist in Fang Can's hand, his smile widened.

As Yi Tianxing gently opened his palm, six black stones were placed in his hand in full view of everyone.

Fang Can guessed wrong!
Facing the shocked gazes of Ji Donglai and the others, Yi Tianxing slowly and deliberately said:
"Everyone says this is an absolutely fair game, but on this chessboard, it seems my luck has the upper hand!"

At this moment, the superpowered side faced the greatest crisis in the history of the battle!
