309: Trap of the Gods

The great immortals entered the underground passage one by one.

Venerable White Eyebrow, on the other hand, was constantly surrounded by people, as if he were the center of attention, with everyone praising him.

Chen Tianming followed at the end, looking at Venerable White Eyebrow, who was being flattered, and the gloomy Chess Immortal, and found it very amusing.

Others didn't know, but Chen Tianming had an appraisal skill.

He could tell at a glance the sordid relationship between Venerable White Eyebrow and Chess Immortal.

Illegitimate child!

Although in the Xuanhuan World, there aren't many Dao Companions who stay together forever.

Cultivators, by nature, cut off emotional desires, and with their extremely long lifespans, they had long since lost love.

But it's inevitable that, due to the seven emotions and six desires, some indescribable relationships occur.

If both the man and woman were just ordinary rogue Cultivators, it would be fine, but one was Venerable White Eyebrow, whose reputation filled the heavens, and the other was Liao Mei of the Sword Sect, a benchmark for all Cultivators.

The disgusting part about this matter was that Liao Mei was also a man.

Cultivators comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and can cleanse their bones and marrow with spiritual energy.

Changing one's appearance, or even gender, is a basic operation.

But in the end, Liao Mei had established himself in the world as a man.

Venerable White Eyebrow also had an extremely high reputation.

For the two of them to have a child could only be described as a huge scandal.

Therefore, the birth of Chess Saint was directly concealed by the two of them, and they naturally separated, with Chess Saint becoming an unowned orphan.

But soon, the two discovered that the freak they had created had a great talent for cultivation formations.

That's why they came to their door, asking Venerable White Eyebrow to step forward and inform Chess Immortal of his true identity.

The abandoned Chess Immortal thought he was returning to a happy family.

But he never expected that both his parents were men, and that they had deliberately abandoned him.

Venerable White Eyebrow had eighty-three concubines and attendants in his household, giving birth to no less than two hundred descendants.

Liao Mei was even more lustful, changing genders, and over the long years, he had hundreds of children through birth and pregnancy.

The reason Chess Saint was found was precisely because he was a rare formation master, extremely intelligent, and exceptionally gifted.

If he had been born more ordinary, he probably wouldn't have had the chance to meet his biological parents in his next life.

For various reasons, Chess Saint directly rejected these irresponsible fathers.

He devoted himself to cultivation, gradually climbing to the position of a High Immortal, his formation skills comprehending heaven and earth.

As someone proficient in formations, if he claimed second place in comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, no one in the entire world would dare to claim first.

This was the reason Liao Mei and Venerable White Eyebrow valued him.

The Heaven Gate was closed, and no one had ascended for tens of millions of years.

When a Cultivator's realm reached its peak, if they wanted to continue to grow stronger, there was only one way.

That was to comprehend more of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth; each method of the Great Dao could make their spells more flexible and their foundation more powerful.

But how could comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth be so easy!

The fastest Cultivator, to initially comprehend a single Dao law in their lifetime, would take at least ten thousand years of cultivation.

Even if you subtract the time spent on early cultivation, the fastest it would take to comprehend a Dao law is a thousand years.

What's amazing about Chess Saint is that he comprehends the Great Dao and penetrates the laws at any time, disregarding realms, he is a living law generator!

Venerable White Eyebrow and Liao Mei were attracted to Chess Saint's ability.

Little did they know, Chess Saint's ability stemmed from the Great Dao Comprehension System he had always hidden!

He had sentience from birth and could sign in every year to randomly obtain a Great Dao.

However, Chen Tianming still saw that this person was dull-witted and could not fully master all the Great Daos he obtained.

However, if this person doesn't die, he will probably be absolutely invincible in the Xuanhuan World in the future.

Chen Tianming had been watching him, personally designing a trap for him from which there was absolutely no chance of resistance.

Everyone entered the underground passage, each filled with righteous indignation.

Chess Saint and Venerable White Eyebrow were at the front, whispering.

Immediately, a painted formation protruded from the wall ahead.

It was entirely crimson, shaped like a demon, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, holding a two-edged steel-tipped fork smeared with sticky, dripping blood.

As the fork was flung out, it immediately emitted a clangorous roar, and the sharp fork actually pierced through a great immortal's thousand-layered protective true qi, directly penetrating his heart!

The great immortal, not yet cold, cried out loudly for help.

“This formation can absorb spiritual energy, quickly save me!”

The true qi shield on his chest was shattered into tens of thousands of pieces, forming a vortex concentrated at the center of the fork's tip.

Even at the True Immortal realm, the spiritual energy in his body was quickly absorbed, leaving him only able to call for help.

But spiritual energy was the very essence of an immortal, and for a moment, no one was willing to save him.

Chess Saint took action at this moment.

With an outstretched hand, it was the Dao of Reversal, the Great Dao covering, and the blood-bladed fork was pulled out straight, returning to the demon's hand.

Chess Saint struck again, slowly pushing out a bone spur from his raised palm, directly piercing through the demon's golden true qi.

The golden true qi shattered, but the demon still howled like a ghost.

Chess Saint remained calm and composed, forcefully thrusting the bone spur from his palm.

Pfft!

The stark white bone spur suddenly lengthened and thickened, and after piercing through the demon, it flew straight towards the wall.

Rumble!

The hard bone pierced into the wall, the ice wall cracked, and the great formation shattered.

With one move, the demon whimpered and instantly turned into dust.

Only then did everyone recover.

The great immortal who had been pierced used some magical power to repair his golden body, most of the rest dissipated, but he could still stabilize his immortal body.

However, whether he could endure next time was unknown.

Chen Tianming watched coldly from the back of the group, not speaking.

This Son of the Great Dao was indeed formidable.

However, what Chen Tianming had prepared for him was not just a great formation.

The crowd continued forward, and some others had broken through a few more formations, with some sustaining minor injuries.

Overall, it was a close call but without major incident.

The end of the ice wall suddenly opened up.

However, many continuous murals appeared on the wall.

Chess Saint and Venerable White Eyebrow, who were at the very front, discovered them first and stopped to observe.

“Although there is no spiritual energy in these murals, it is as if the Great Dao is naturally formed within them!”

Venerable White Eyebrow also exclaimed in admiration upon seeing them.

And Chess Saint was even more keenly aware.

“Not only that, the painter had no painting Dao, nor a single stroke of brushwork; this is the Sword Dao, but there is also the Broadsword Dao, the Art of War, and! And emotion, and anger, he… seems to be proficient in everything?”

Hearing Chess Saint's exclamation, everyone stepped forward to observe.

“This, the Seven-Colored Divine Stone, could it be Nüwa mending the heavens?”

“Look, it's not mending the heavens, it's breaking the heavens, it's Nüwa becoming a god!”

This made the great immortals even more surprised, and their discussions became more intense.

And the further back they looked, the more amazed they became.

But at this moment, Venerable White Eyebrow suddenly let out a loud shout.

“Stop looking!”

The profound immortal sound, mixed with the Dao of Heavenly Principles, made Chen Tianming feel his primordial spirit shake.

He squinted his eyes, stabilized himself slightly, and said nothing.

Venerable White Eyebrow saw that everyone was sober and then began to warn them.

“Get it straight! This is just a man-made trap designed to ensnare you, don't believe anything!”

Chen Tianming sneered.

This was a trap he had set; wouldn't it be laughable if it could be broken with a single sentence?

The next second, someone in the crowd questioned Venerable White Eyebrow.

“Venerable White Eyebrow, if… those who wish to entrap us are the gods…”

As soon as these words were uttered, everyone gasped in cold air!
