Chapter 264: Chapter 230 Black and White Heavenly King Falls_1

The disciples around them, Nan Feng, Zi Ling, and the others, were all incredibly shocked at this moment.

Just now, they seemed to have felt a kind of power that transcended time and space, emanating from that chessboard.

But they could not get close, could not grasp it.

They had no idea what had happened.

Only at this moment was Jiang Li’s heart filled with a shocked expression.

Because of the resonance of the path of chess, just now, he was drawn into the river of time and saw events that took place in the distant past.

He…

understood everything!

The Black and White Heavenly King at this moment…

was the figure of the Black and White Heavenly King who, tens of thousands of years ago, fought fierce battles to protect the Human Race from a different race, a figure rushing towards the future!

He came to this life… to borrow the chance of a lifetime!

To borrow… from the teacher!

“The teacher bestowed upon him a lifetime’s opportunity, infused him with the Saint Path, enabling him to take that one step… to protect that era…”

Jiang Li murmured to himself.

What kind of power was this?

It crossed the long river of time…

And the Black and White Heavenly King of this era, leaving only a piece of human skin, became an omen of bad luck, filled with countless malevolent thoughts… Was this the price he paid for rushing towards the future?

He didn’t know.

All he knew was… the era in which the Black and White Heavenly King lived was truly full of hardship and desolation!

In the end, only the Black and White Heavenly King himself was fighting; no other person in the world could accompany him.

Therefore, he had no choice but to rush towards the future…

At this moment, a tear suddenly appeared in Jiang Li’s eyes.

Was the Master sitting at the downstream of time waiting for something??

He bestowed upon the Black and White Heavenly King of the past, the flawless Emperor cultivation of the Saint Path, yet he could not descend to that era himself…

At this moment, Jiang Li suddenly felt an urge in his heart.

He wanted to rush to that sea area, to assist in the battle!

The Black and White Heavenly King of that era was too lonely!

And at this moment.

The Black and White Heavenly King slowly woke up.

He was like Chaos, like awakening from a dream.

He suddenly stood up and gave Li Fan a deep bow.

“Black White is about to die, I wish to ask audaciously…”

The Black and White Heavenly King looked at Li Fan, at this moment, he was clear about his mission in this life.

The opportunity had been borrowed, and he was on the verge of withering.

But at this moment, he had acquired memories that spanned the cosmic river, his mind was lucid, and so there was an inexplicable question in his heart!

Li Fan looked at the Black and White Heavenly King with a smile in his eyes, a hint of admiration showing.

The other party’s chess skill was indeed not bad, with an extremely strong talent, a promising prospect… It’s a pity that he was a bit too old.

But now, he had indeed ascended to a new realm in the path of chess.

“Please speak, Li Fan will withhold nothing that he knows.”

He was very calm, after all, the elder probably wanted to consult about matters of the path of chess.

“Black White wishes to inquire… currently, is there anything that troubles Senior You?”

Urgency was at its peak in his eyes!

He understood that this concerned a great secret of through the ages!

Such a powerful being sitting firmly at the downstream of time, teaching so many disciples, must be waiting for something…

It was very likely… the ultimate foe!

Thus, he really wanted to know!

What exactly lay in the future…

What existence could possibly keep such a respected elder from being able to extricate himself!

Li Fan, upon hearing these words, was momentarily stunned. What could be troubling him??

But then he smiled, picked up the Labyrinth Map lying beside him, and said:

“What troubles lie in store for tomorrow, I do not yet know, but today’s troubles have been resolved.”

The Black and White Heavenly King looked towards the Labyrinth Map.

Hisss!

At this moment, he was tremendously shaken!

“The Secret Place… Is the senior waiting for the Secret Place? Has he… uncovered the secrets of the Secret Place?”

He was astounded.

The Secret Place… that was a true taboo indeed.

It might very well be related to the source of disaster…

This respected elder was indeed waiting!

“He intends to confront the calamity of all ages with a single body…”

What an imposing spirit this was?

He gave Li Fan another deep bow!

“There’s no need for such formalities.”

Li Fan smiled and said, “To meet is to have destiny.”

The Black and White Heavenly King nodded deeply and said:

“Senior, I shall take my leave.”

His mission was already complete.

It was time to leave this place.

“Good, Jiang Li, see this elderly man off.”

Li Fan spoke calmly.

He could tell that the elder seemed physically frail, and with the roads in and out of the village challenging to traverse, any mishap on the way could spell trouble.

Therefore, it was best to have Dugu Yuqing and others escort him safely.

“As you command!”

Jiang Li immediately replied.

“Big Brother, may I… accompany the elder on his departure?”

At this moment, Xinning asked.

Li Fan smiled and said, “Of course you may.”

He was pleased to see Xinning showing compassion.

Thus, Xinning, along with Dugu Yuqing and others, escorted the elder out as well.

Stepping out of the courtyard, the Black and White Heavenly King remained gazing at the words “Wu’er Xianting,” murmuring to himself:

“Truly unparalleled, indeed unparalleled…”

Soon, they had left the mountain village behind them.

No sooner had they left the village than the aura of the King of Black and White began to change eerily, his face twisted with extreme agony as though he were enduring some unspeakable pain!

Great misfortune, great terror, and great strangeness were descending!

“Senior!”

Jiang Li hurried forward.

“Do not mind me!”

But the Black and White Heavenly King stopped him.

The Black and White Heavenly King forced a smile and said:

“I have fulfilled my mission. Being able to meet this senior in this lifetime is enough for me to die without regrets.”

“I guarded that epoch… This epoch, with Senior Li and you all here, I believe… there is still hope for the Human Race!”

“Rising through fire and blood, you will eventually become the strongest support for the Human Race.”

He turned to Xinning and said:

“If possible… return to the Demon Domain soon, that place… is key…”

Before he could finish his words, a calamity that spanned time and space descended, and his soul shattered instantaneously!

Having borrowed a lifetime’s worth of opportunity to cross through time and space, he revealed secrets from another era, triggering a deadly threat from the cosmos!

“Grow… quickly grow stronger…”

Before his annihilation, the Black and White Heavenly King let out a soulful cry from the depths of his being!

Then, all of a sudden, the King of Black and White was completely destroyed in both body and soul!

The Black and White Heavenly King… turned into a piece of human skin.

A shriveled piece of human skin fell at the entrance to the village.

Jiang Li knelt on the ground suddenly, with tears streaming down non-stop!

He stepped forward, trembling, and picked up the skin of the Black and White Heavenly King.

Dugu Yuqing and the others were equally shocked.

“What in the world… happend here…”

“What happened… ”

“It’s too terrifying…”

They were all astonished.

What kind of power could cause even the mighty Black and White Heavenly King to instantly become nothing but a piece of skin?

Dugu Yuqing muttered, “It’s the backlash of time.”

“Nobody can rush into the future or return to the past at will… everything comes at a price, a horrific price.”

Upon hearing this, Xinning’s eyes also filled with disbelief as she looked at Jiang Li and said:

“What exactly did you see before?”

Jiang Li looked at his fellow disciples and said:

“A cataclysm… a cataclysm that spans from ancient times to the future.”

“The Black and White Heavenly King borrowed a lifetime’s worth of cultivation from our master to suppress an era… But, the catastrophe will eventually arrive.”

He murmured, “We need to grow quickly!”

“Through the growth that comes from blood and fire!”

At this moment, Jiang Li felt an unprecedented sense of urgency!

The Emperor of Black and White, Dugu, standing alone against foes above the Taboo Sea…

“Saint Descent… Immortal Great Calamity… ancient catastrophe…”

Qing Chen also murmured, “Did master nurture us so that we could add more strength when facing the cataclysm?”

Having witnessed the wars of the Three Great Heavenly Realms, they had glimpsed many deep secrets.

“We must grow quickly… and experience chaos and blood, to temper ourselves through decisive battles of life and death!”

Jiang Li suddenly looked at Dugu Yuqing and the others with such determination in his eyes!

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yuqing and the others also couldn’t help but nod!

“Indeed, only through the battle can the Sword Dao be honed to its sharpest… ”

Dugu Yuqing muttered.

“The Demon Domain… should I return?”

Xinning murmured to herself!
