Chapter 951: Chess Sage Li

This Chess Soul looked much more elegant than the one attached to the elder. Furthermore, the Essence Energy fluctuations on its body were stronger.
He sat by the river bank with a stone chessboard and Chinese chess in front of him. When he saw Zhou Wen and company walk over, the Chess Soul said faintly, "If you want to go up Mt. Chinese Chess, you have to pass me first."
"We aren't going up Mt. Chinese Chess. We are just passing by," Li Xuan said.
"If you wish to go up Mt. Chinese Chess, you have to pass through me first." The Chess Soul repeated this sentence mechanically as though it was the only thing he could say. It was like an extremely unintelligent robot.
"Grandpa Chen, what's Mt. Chinese Chess?" Zhou Wen asked the elder beside him.
"I've never been to Mt. Chinese Chess. I only heard from the elder when I was young that there was a Mt. Chinese Chess in the nearby mountains. Legend has it that there was an ancient general who once fought an immortal by the river. In the end, the immortal was defeated by the general and flew away in embarrassment. The immortal even abandoned his chessboard and chess pieces. Therefore, the chessboard and chess pieces turned into Mt. Chinese Chess," the elder said after some thought.
"From the looks of it, it's because Mt. Chinese Chess has become a dimensional zone that the surrounding area has changed. These Chess Souls are only protecting Mt. Chinese Chess," Zhou Wen said after some thought.
Li Xuan narrowed his eyes and said, "They are guarding this place and not letting people go to Mt. Chinese Chess. Doesn't that mean that there are treasures there?"
"Even if there are treasures, it has nothing to do with us. With our chess skills, I'm afraid we won't be able to go up the mountain." Zhou Wen didn't know how to play chess, so he wasn't interested in anything on Mt. Chinese Chess.
"All treasures in the world belong to those who are fated. Since we've encountered it today, if we don't take it, we might be struck by lightning." Li Xuan was very interested.
"Even so, you have to have the ability to win the game. Don't tell me you plan on letting me fight my way up? If there's a Mythical Chess Soul, my ability might not be effective." Zhou Wen was telling the truth. Supreme Hell King had Epic strength after all. Who knew if it would be effective against a Mythical Chess Soul.
Furthermore, Mt. Chinese Chess was odd. Perhaps there would be some special taboos. When the time came, Zhou Wen wouldn't be able to use two things at the same time. He couldn't use sinflames when dismissing the taboo, nor could he dismiss the taboo when using sinflames. That would be troublesome.
"There's no need for you to fight. Watch me. Let these Chess Souls know how powerful I am." The workings of Li Xuan's mind was a mystery as he confidently walked towards the opposite bank.
After Li Xuan crossed the river, he saw the space on the other side immediately turn odd. It was as though an ancient power had descended and enveloped the space on the other side.
