Volume 1 The Domain of the Night Chapter 118 Traces of Time
……
I don't know how strange this space is, and I don't know what this test is.
The half-step human king of the Demon Slayer Division, the thirty-sixth in the world list, the Lord of the Flame Biting, like many strangers, sat in front of the chessboard inexplicably.
After that, he never got up again.
The fire-biting robe was dripping with blood, his face was ugly, and behind him, stood two skeleton ghost immortals who existed in the form of nothingness.
Not long ago, he realized that he couldn't crack the chess game, and then he wanted to get up and leave.
And that's when he was attacked.
After some struggle, the two skeleton ghosts and immortals broke up his magic appearance, and then forced him to press him to the stone chair.
You have to play chess, and if you don't play, you can't do it.
So he bit the fire and continued to play chess.
But he really couldn't get down.
"What the hell is this...... How long has passed? ”
The man was carrying the chess piece, looking tired, and he had lost his sense of time, because he always felt that he had not been here for long, but the ability could no longer hold on.
In this world, there is no night, the sun is always high in the sky, and it is always sunny, the water of the waterfall has always been like that, no more, no less, no end, small trees are always small trees, and young grass has always been young grass.
"Tired like this, don't tell Lao Tzu that it's been a month!" , gritting fire and suddenly getting angry, gritting his teeth, "False world, false chess, what is the meaning of playing!" ”
The man was angry, but he didn't dare to make any other moves.
Because of the internal injuries on his body, it seems that he is not healed.
So endless humiliation rose in the man's heart.
"I stepped into this space with the belief that it was inevitable, but I was blocked by a chess game, and I couldn't break it even if I racked my brains."
Biting the fire and sighing, it's really humiliating.
He landed again and took seven white pieces.
As a result, the space fluctuated, the chess pieces on the chessboard disappeared, and there were seven more white pieces in the bowl on the side of the hand.
"How to win or lose, this chess game is obviously endless!"
Biting Fire observed this and was about to go crazy.
No matter how he plays or calculates, the situation is always even, and the captured pieces will always return to the bowl.
He always has a chess game, so he will never lose, he will not win, and the game will not end.
"If you don't let me go, you can't lift the table, what the hell is going to do!"
Biting the fire was angry in his heart, and at the same time, unconsciously, he actually crushed the chess pieces in the palm of his hand.
"Oops!"
The man's pupils narrowed sharply, because according to his experience, the consequences of doing so should be that he would be severely beaten by the two mysterious beings behind him.
But after a while, the two ghosts and immortals didn't react, as if they hadn't seen it.
"Huh?"
Biting Fire was puzzled, so he took out another chess piece and put it in front of the two ghost immortals, trying to crush it.
But as soon as he exerted his strength, one of the skeletons reached out as if to do something to him.
So he bit the fire and quickly withdrew his hand.
"If that doesn't work......"
He silently took it into his arms and quietly crushed it.
Click!
The chess pieces are reduced to powder ashes.
The ghost fairy didn't react at all.
"Is that okay?"
Biting Fire's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have found a way to crack it!
So he began to crush the third piece.
The ghost fairy still didn't react.
Biting the fire grinned, began to play chess seriously, thinking about the encirclement and suppression, the black and white chess on the chessboard was constantly eaten, and the number decreased, until there were no chess to eat, and when he had to settle the formation, he took the chess pieces out of the chess bowl, and then crushed them in the palm of his hand.
I don't know how long this process lasted.
The grass swayed, the breeze rose, and time passed.
I don't know how long it took, but when there were still five black and three white on the chessboard, but there was nothing in the bowl, I clapped my hands and stood up.
The ghost didn't react.
Because Kuroko won.
"I'll just say black must win!"
One of the ghosts came forward, and when he saw the result, he laughed heartily, and then punched the shoulder of the bone beside him, like two children playing.
But just like that, the latter's body immediately fell apart, turning into a pile of dead dry bones, scattered on the ground.
His companion was killed by a punch.
Biting Fire also saw all this, so he moved away a little further.
Previously, he also fought with these two bone frames, but he couldn't touch each other, so he could only be beaten passively.
The living ghost fairy looked stunned, as if he didn't understand why his companion had become like this.
So when he was at a loss and looked in a hurry, he saw his own hands.
Those were two pairs of white bones.
"This ...... This...... Lord Fuxi, what's going on! ”
The white bone skeleton ran to bite the fire with a frightened face, one by one.
Didn't he go up the mountain to chop wood, and then saw Lord Fuxi by chance, and then watched him play a game of chess, how did it become like this!
Biting the fire was a little nervous, because the space in front of him was constantly flickering.
The white bones, who were switching back and forth between a simple country farmer and a skeleton, seemed to be what he looked like before he was alive.
"Think for yourself."
Biting Fire didn't know what to say, so he could only reply stubbornly.
So the skeleton took two steps back and began to caress its body blankly.
He seemed to be confirming the existence of the flesh.
Of course it doesn't exist.
"Mirror, yes, I'm going to look in the mirror."
The farmer muttered something, and then staggered to the waterfall.
After seeing his face clearly through the fluttering splash of water, it was a pile of white bones, and it froze in place.
Biting the fire looked solemn, and he carried the wound hard, and a blazing fire began to emerge illusory above his head.
That was a precursor to the appearance of his dharma.
The man took a deep breath, he didn't know what perverted actions this ghost fairy would have after learning that he was "dead", but he definitely had to prepare in advance, because he had lost to them in less than twenty rounds before......
"It turns out that so many years have passed."
The ghost fairy was silent for a long time, and he remembered what was going on.
So he turned his head to look at Biting Fire, with a complicated expression.
He forgot, forgetting that he was no longer a human, but a ghost.
"Gone."
A gust of wind blew its body away, turning it into foam like those chess pieces crushed by biting fire.
Then, a glowing door appeared under the waterfall.
Biting Fire scratched his head strangely and walked towards the gate of light.
He glanced back at the flowing waterfall, the huge platform, and the annoying chessboard, and stepped into it.
"Boom."
It's the sound of feet stepping on steps.
Biting Fire looked dazed, because it was as if the lights had been turned off in the room, and in just an instant, his surroundings were pitch black.
Once again, he stood on the steps of the path leading to the relic.
Biting the fire was silent, looking at the light curtain behind him, and kicked the void a little angrily.
"Damn, it's that simple!"
He scolded angrily, he had known this, why did he waste so much time, the holy relics were probably snatched away!
Bite the fire and rush to the third layer, the second level is obviously relying on luck, and his luck is obviously very bad, he has delayed too much time here, and if he heals again, it is estimated that he will be thrown away.
"He's so anxious, he doesn't seem to realize the changes in his body."
In front of the fence on the seventh floor, Veritaan smiled and watched Biting Fire go upstairs, this guy was the first to pass through the second floor, and it took less than two days.
The past two days outside are equivalent to two years on the inside.
At this time, the bite of the fire was actually exhausted, two years of energy was consumed, and he was injured, and now his whole body is actually hanging only by that ability.
If his ability runs out on the third layer, he dies instantly!
"His Dao heart is in turmoil."
The Demon God's voice was cold, and he could see the urgency of biting the fire at this time, for fear that someone else would snatch the holy relic.
But the more anxious you are, the more difficult it is to pass this third level.
"If nothing else, he'll die here."
The demon god left a word, and then didn't look at the bite fire again.
Velitaan, looking at the man in the water curtain, smiled strangely.
Perhaps, he didn't even notice that he had some wrinkles on his face.
That's a sign of time.
