The golden scorpion turned into a black piece and fell onto the board with an extremely ethereal 'click' sound.

And the strong light of its chessboard allows Liu Yuying to see its outline clearly.

As for the cultivators beside her, they were already speechless in shock by this magnificent spectacle.

With the passage of time, the early morning has quietly risen, and the golden chessboard that covers the entire night has gradually faded without a trace.

"That's ...... What's that? The emaciated boy still looked up, but all he could see was the blue sky.

A moment later, Ning Xiang, who had woken up, slowly opened his eyes.

He felt a little confused, but the Array Eye had indeed been refined by himself and recognized the Lord.

He was still extremely weak and lacked spiritual power before, but now he has recovered his state, and he is even full of spiritual power.

Even the meridians that were burned and damaged were restored more transparently, as if they had been opened up to the second veins of Ren Du.

Ning Xiang was carefully immersed in this indescribable feeling, and at this moment, he suddenly noticed an irrepressible throbbing in his dantian.

"This is ......" Ning Xiang immediately closed his eyes tightly and turned around the Lingyang Exercises, and as the spiritual power in his body was pulled and flowed, he actually cultivated on the spot.

At the same time, the green scorpion in the sea of peaceful qi began to shrink gradually, exuding spiritual power for his spirit master to absorb.

Half an hour later, Ning Xiang's body was soaked in blood and sweat, and his body trembled slightly, and then he opened his eyes suddenly.

"I've stepped into the E-class realm!" Ning Xiang breathed violently, and his originally suppressed tone was now full of excitement.

Suddenly, it was as if he had been reborn.

Immediately, Ning Xiang slowly raised his left hand, feeling the surge of spiritual power in the meridians and the stability of his qi sea, his exhilarating mood was a little indescribable.

Is this the cultivation of the E-level realm...... It's really extraordinary.

Although he can barely have an E-level critical state by relying on his overdraft exercises, he has to do his best all the time.

However, compared to the real E-level realm, it was actually a difference between cloud and mud.

Last night, the self in the F realm was able to use the power of the so-called E-level realm by gambling with his life...... But for me who is now in the real E-level realm, I'm afraid it's just a more serious means.

And just when Ning Xiang was distracted, Liu Yuying couldn't help but ask.

"Then can we leave the secret realm now?"

She didn't understand what Ning Xiang had just said, and all she cared about was when she would be able to go home.

"I'm so sorry...... I was just a little excited. Ning Xiang took a deep breath to calm himself down for a moment, and then began to try to communicate with the Formation Eye with the Wisdom in his sea of qi.

The way of communication is not words, but some kind of subtle understanding.

But Ning Xiang quickly frowned, and then said with some embarrassment: "This array of eyes can't control this secret realm, it can control ......."

After hesitating for a moment, Ning Xiang swept his hand in the yellow sand in front of him, and then the sand pile in front of him shook, and then it seemed that several pens were drawing in the gravel at the same time, and finally sketched a chessboard.

And there was a boy next to him, who was a little stunned after seeing Ning Xiang have such a method.

Before that, he had only seen Ning Xiang take out items out of thin air, as well as the saber full of openings that could emit a glimmer of light, these practical magic tricks could be done, and the visual impact was not obvious.

As for last night's battle, visibility was low due to the yellow sand, and he could barely see a faint flame in the distance.

So this is the first time he has experienced 'Reiki Revival' so intuitively.

As the chessboard took shape, the others soon discovered that it was very similar to the magnificent golden web that had been in the night just now.

Ning Xiang waved his hand again, using depressions and bumps to represent black and white, appearing in the sand table.

"It's a chessboard, right?" Xue Qi felt like it when she looked up just now, but now when she looked closely, it was a chessboard at all.

"But Go or backgammon?" Xue Qi suddenly became a little puzzled.

"19 horizontal and vertical lines, a total of 361 falling points, 9 star positions, and the middle Tianyuan," Lu Jimo squatted opposite Xueqi and explained as he looked at the chessboard in the desert seriously, "This is the standard chessboard of Go." ”

Then Lu Jimo raised his head and asked with some confusion: "Aren't these things all common sense?" ”

Although he said this, he always felt that this chess set was very awkward.

If this is the chessboard of Go...... He didn't understand the number of white chess, but why did this black chess play like backgammon?

Go is all about enclosing the ground and occupying the eye, as well as the saying 'golden horn and silver edge grass belly', but this black move is slightly closer to the center for a few moves.

"Huh, is this common sense?" Xue Qi frowned immediately after hearing this, and then asked with some disgust: "What does this thing have to do with the secret realm?" ”

"We defeated the Formation Eye, can't we go back because of this game of chess?"

After Ning Xiang thought for a moment, he immediately explained, "After I subdued this array of eyes, although I couldn't control the secret realm, it seemed that there was a subtle connection. ”

As he spoke, he pressed his finger on the 'star position' in the lower left corner of the board, and then a depression like a chess piece was formed.

Xue Qi looked at Ning Xiang's movements, it was still difficult to understand, but for the vast majority of the boys present, they had an instant guess.

They have played a lot of various Internet, STEAM, and PC games, and this level of decryption is a common sense strategy in the game.

"That sand scorpion is a chess piece at all, isn't it, the real secret realm is actually this chessboard?" A boy was the first to mention.

"And every time we kill one of these monsters, we can drop on the chessboard."

"If we want to leave the secret realm safely, we have to kill a lot of giant scorpions, and then win this chess game?"

With the boy's throwing bricks, all kinds of speculations about the secret realm of the strategy have also emerged, and they are becoming more and more outrageous, and they can even pull the infinite horror of the main god space.

In the end, Ning Xiang finally dragged these wild imaginations back.

"The white chess piece seems to be the secret realm itself," Ning Xiang explained with a frown, "and I can't control the landing of the chess pieces." ”

"So...... The secret realm we are in is probably the chessboard itself. ”

"After each 'sand scorpion' is defeated, it will become our black chess, and the real secret realm solution is probably to win this game of Go."

After Ning Xiang finished talking about his guess, Liu Yuying's shoulders trembled a little, and her chest was breathing violently and she was a little out of breath.

She still didn't understand, but she knew she couldn't go back.

Then Liu Yuying's eyes became more and more blurred, and her figure was a little unstable.

was inexplicably swept in, and even almost died several times.

It's true...... Almost died!

In the past, she had never thought about death, and she always felt far away from her.

And now, she has persevered for so long, but she still can't go back.

Why...... What do these things have to do with you!!

"Alas......"

Liu Yuying looked at the mineral water that suddenly appeared in front of her, and she was stunned in place when her thoughts were interrupted.

"Let's drink some water to recover our strength, and we'll have to hurry later." Yin Hang held the bottle of unopened mineral water and handed it to her, "Otherwise, what else can I do?" ”

"I'm afraid it will take a few more days before I can go home."

Yin Hang remembered that Liu Yuying had persuaded herself like this at the beginning, and then saw her tears slowly rolling across her dusty cheeks.

After a while, Yin Hang took out some other food from his mountaineering bag, distributed it to the rest of the team, and then took some nutritious milk and bread to feed the little girl.

Because she was very timid, she only dared to follow Yin Hang's surroundings, quietly holding his cuffs or the corners of his clothes, and Yin Hang sat a little farther away from others when eating in order to take care of her.

As for the snacks she exchanged with Yin Hang, he also silently stuffed them into his pocket.

What Ning Xiang said was just speculation, not that he could only understand the reason for communicating with the 'Array Eye', but that the Array Eye itself knew less.

In the end, the team came to a provisional conclusion.

The real eye of the formation should be this chess game, if you want to leave the secret realm, I'm afraid you have to win this chess game.

This also explained why it was so difficult for them to meet other cultivators, because the area of this secret realm was simply unbelievably vast.

As for what to do next......

"Let's join the others first," Ning Xiang suggested, "The subsequent cultivators all carried a large amount of supplies when they entered the secret realm, and they were also well prepared. ”

"And if we stay here, with the scale of this chessboard, the materials of the army aviation will definitely not be able to hold on."

"If our guess is correct, the place where those few black pieces are relatively concentrated should be the location where other cultivators gather."

"So we're on our way to the black flags."

After Ning Xiang finished speaking, he immediately got everyone's approval.

If you were to judge by the chessboard in the night, it would have been to go north-east by now.

This was almost the exact opposite of the direction they had rushed to the Oasis.

"I'll just say that the 'master' is not reliable at all!" Lu Jimo said confidently again.

"That 'master' is talking about the location of the oasis, and we're going to find a gathering place now!" Xue Qi glared at him and scolded, "Can you not change your concept!" ”

And when they finished eating the food provided by Yin Hang, they looked at the vast desert to the east of the north before setting off, and they were suddenly a little worried.

They had come almost in that direction, and had traveled as far as eight days, and now they had to rush back.

So, will they really make it to the so-called gathering place alive?

……

"Whoa, whoa, whoa—"

When flying over the top of the sand dune, Xue Qi leaned her slender body tightly next to the chubby Lu Jimo, and the whole person trembled with fright.

Yin Hang, as a boy whose physical strength was still 'acceptable', sat on the back edge of the mat, holding the little girl who was also trembling with fright in his arms.

And when they rushed to the top of the sand dunes again, Xueqi's screams shouted directly in advance.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa—"

That's not to say she's timid.

Ning Xiang rode the waves with his saber in front of them, while they sat on hot mats, wrapped in the canvas of their tents, and then sprinted through the desert like jet skis, traveling at nearly 60 kilometers per hour.

"Brother Ning, are you now at the E-level realm?" A boy who was also a cultivator shouted curiously against the strong wind.

Ning Xiang stepped on the badly damaged saber and galloped around them with his hands behind his back, and when he heard someone call him, he leaned over and nodded, "Yes." ”

In fact, he felt that he not only had E(-) level cultivation now, as long as he meditated and cultivated for a few days, he could officially step into the E-level realm.

And after having an E-level cultivation, that is an undoubted cultivator.

Ning Xiang, who had been cultivating for a long time, naturally knew how difficult the path of cultivation was, and with his talent, every step was a cliff that needed to be climbed.

But this opportunity in the secret realm actually allowed him to get an almost cross-level promotion, and even made his meridians transparent, which is really incredible.

Before that, he even thought that he was going to die here, but in the blink of an eye, he was reborn like Nirvana.

"Congratulations." The boy who accosted him was suddenly fascinated.

In his eyes, Ning Xiang is so powerful now, he is really no different from the immortal family.

And in this world, who doesn't want to cultivate immortals?

Wearing a robe and flying with an imperial sword is simply his dream.

And this is Ning Xiang's ascension after refining the array eye, and a similar array eye ...... There are more than 300 pieces in the entire secret realm!

Is it possible for him to recognize the Lord Refining Array Eye?

Even...... You can refine the array eye of this secret realm!

Liu Yuying didn't understand, she hugged her legs and shrunk in the middle of the hot pad, because it was difficult to sit firmly with her ordinary girl's physique, and then she weakly raised her head and asked Yin Hang: "Cultivating immortals is...... That kind of alchemy? ”

Liu Yuying ate some chocolate, which can be regarded as recovering some spirits, coupled with Yin Hang's sentence of 'what else can I do', so that she can't escape reality anymore.

But fortunately, with the speed at which they are now riding the wind and waves, they don't have to be so desperate to rush through the desert.

In fact, with the peaceful E-level realm, it is impossible to achieve such a wanton level.

But after he subdued the green scorpion array, he found that he could directly control the desert like drawing a chessboard.

It's a pity that the range is not very wide, and the intensity is relatively low, but it is still possible to simulate the fluidity of the water and surf in the desert.

After thinking about it for a moment, Yin Hang tried to explain: "Similar to those soaps...... Well, in those TV series, the male protagonist with superpowers. ”

"Kim so-hyun?!" Liu Yuying suddenly raised her head and asked in some surprise.

"Uh...... Probably, right? Yin Hang was suddenly a little embarrassed, because he didn't know who Xiuxian was.

"The kind of superpower that can pause time and move instantly," Liu Yuying hurriedly asked, "Can you even bring the dead back to life?" ”

Yin Hang suddenly regretted giving this example, but he still tried his best to explain: "It is not good to come back to life, but many of them have been terminally ill...... It's definitely curable. ”
