Chapter 895: The Voice of Heavenly Demon
Exhausted in body and mind!
No one has ever played ten consecutive rounds with Yun Xi, not even Cyber Elf Alpha has accomplished this feat.
Relying on the pride of being the Princess of the Throne of the King and her unwavering belief, Sweet Dream stubbornly played all the way to the tenth round, before completely exhausting her energy and falling down.
Just like Cyber Elf Alpha, who once overclocked to the point where over a third of the planet's quantum computer systems almost overheated and became scrap, Sweet Dream had lost to the point of losing consciousness.
“Hiss!" Feather Snake King, who had long anticipated this outcome, glared fiercely at Yun Xi and swiped his tail across his face before quickly taking the dizzy Sweet Dream and leaving the world of the Starry Sky Chessboard.
“Uh... I held back a bit…" Yun Xi felt a bit embarrassed as he looked at Sweet Dream, who had fallen into unconsciousness while playing against him.
He really held back, except for the first round, he gradually reduced the pressure on Sweet Dream, and even began actively guiding her to make moves.
But Sweet Dream clearly didn't appreciate it at all, always having a look of "I will resist to the end", and constantly using the most aggressive methods to try to gain an advantage.
In the ten rounds, Yun Xi won the guess-the-first-move game nine times, using his expertise in the Tianyuan opening to guide Sweet Dream in her gameplay. Only the previous round was the first time Sweet Dream had taken the first move.
Perhaps, this was also the reason for her excessive excitement and gambling everything?
Unfortunately, she was too happy too early.
Starting with Tianyuan is just a habit, a hobby of Yun Xi's, because taking the initiative allows him to calmly unfold his grand strategy.
Yun Xi playing as the second player, on the contrary, becomes more proactive and aggressive.
The round where Sweet Dream fainted was because Yun Xi's counterattack from a local position completely cut off her way out, causing her to fall into unprecedented self-doubt and ultimately collapsing due to excessive mental exhaustion.
“Poor girl, she was tortured too miserably.”
“I suspect, who exactly is torturing the rookies, even the experts couldn't come up with such a move."
“Is this Little Cloud really from our Stardust Zone?"
After watching ten high-quality games in a row, and especially after the appearance of a blood-spitting round, the people around finally started to doubt the true identity of "Little Cloud."
This level appearing in the Stardust Zone is simply like a big Demon King in the beginner area!
In the past ten rounds, they honestly admitted to themselves that whoever went up would lose, and lose without any temper.
Especially for those senior players who have participated in the Starry Sky Chessboard test for a long time, their own chess skills may not be great, but their ability to appreciate the game is top-notch.
Sweet Dream's talent, in their eyes, is already astonishing and can be called an unparalleled genius.
And the "Little Cloud" who easily overwhelmed Sweet Dream without a fuss, his chess ability has reached an extraordinary level.
All we can say is, can't understand, completely clueless.
“This Tianyuan opening has quite the demeanor of the Chess Saint."
“It seems that the Starry Sky Chessboard has gained another expert."
“Little brother, are you willing to guide me for a fee? The price can be negotiated!"
After Sweet Dream was defeated and taken away by Feather Snake King, a crowd quickly gathered in front of Yun Xi's chessboard.
In the world of the Starry Sky Chessboard, regardless of race or identity, everyone here is addicted to playing Starry Sky Chess, just like the legend rank players like Immortal in the Pot who wander in the Stardust Zone all day long.
At the legend rank level, wanting to advance further is truly difficult as climbing to the heavens.
The leap from the seventh rank to the eighth rank often requires the accumulation of millions of years, and as for the ninth rank, known as the "Throne of the Peak," there has been no birth for thousands of years.
The trials of the Starry Sky Chessboard are the highest level trials that are beneficial even for the few strong players at the legend rank within the seven towers.
For these legend rank players, the Starry Sky Chessboard is their ultimate paradise, and calling it a heavenly realm would not be an exaggeration.
In just one month since the start of the trials of the Starry Sky Chessboard within the seven towers, the number of legend rank players who came here to play has exceeded three digits, and this number keeps expanding like bamboo shoots after the rain, showing an endless trend.
To put it bluntly, aside from the Battle God's Championship Contest, this place has become the gathering ground for the highest number of legend rank beings, a true stage for the gods.
Those who can make a name for themselves here can obtain everything overnight.
God Weapons, wealth, glory, power – for the gods, fantasy species, and true beings situated at the peak of the endless god's domains pyramid, none of these are a problem.
The mysteries of the Starry Sky Chess captivate them, and chess players immerse themselves in it like the Immortal in the Pot.
In other words, they are addicted to playing chess.
If possible, Yun Xi would also love to continue playing chess. He originally planned to go to the Star Zone later and play a few more games with Cyber Elf Alpha and Norn the God of Wisdom.
However, the Six-eyes Demon Mask, which constantly emits flashes within his soul, tells him to hurry back now.
He has successfully cultivated the introductory stage of the Paranirmita Vasavartin Scroll!
“Sorry, I have to go back!” After rejecting a bunch of legendary rank experts from all over, Yun Xi hurriedly left the Sky Tower.
“Little Cloud” this name has also begun to circulate in the Stardust Zone.
Not long after, Sweet Dream returned with the Feather Snake King and found that "Little Cloud" was not present. In her anger, she slaughtered the Stardust Zone, causing a horrific scene of rivers of blood.
On that day, all the chess players in the Stardust Zone felt the terror emanating from Sweet Dream.
Afterwards, Sweet Dream repeatedly tormented and overwhelmed all the chess players in the Stardust Zone, over and over again.
It was only when all the chess players in the Stardust Zone surrendered in tears that she entered the Star Position Testing Zone and headed to the higher Star Zone.
Of course, Yun Xi had no idea about any of this.
"Goodbye." Suppressing the tremors in his soul, Yun Xi bid farewell to Lilibet, the guardian of the Sky Tower.
If it wasn't for the restlessness of the Six-eyed Heavenly Demon, how much he would have liked to stay and chat with her.
"Remember, come play chess in the tower more often."
"The Sky Tower needs your strength."
"Remember, the Sky Tower will always be your support, no matter when." Lilibet gently placed the azure divine sword on Yun Xi's forehead, granting him a blessing from the Sky Tower.
A cold yet comforting breath made Yun Xi slightly more awake.
At this moment, his ears were filled with the murmurs of the Heavenly Demon.
Those were the whispers emitted by the Demons of the Outer Realm summoned by the Paranirmita Vasavartin Scroll, echoes from the starry sky of the Other Shore.
Moreover, unlike the typical phenomenon of cultivation with the introductory stage of the Paranirmita Vasavartin Scroll, it wasn't just one Heavenly Demon responding to Yun Xi's voice, but a group of them!
