I have a volume of human scriptures

Chapter 836: Visitors from outer space, inside and outside the chess game
At that moment, every inch of his flesh and blood was on alert to the extreme!

But the other party smiled, as if he had guessed his thoughts, and shook his head gently, saying, "Don't worry about those things. I can tell you very clearly that I am already dead. I will not do the evil methods you are worried about, nor do I bother to do them, nor can I do them.

I am now nothing more than a divine thought sealed in the imperial crown, so you can rest assured."

After hearing this, Yu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't completely let down his guard.

The other party was seen touching the Sutra of Deliverance, as if he could see all the experiences that Yu Chen had gone through from it.

After a long while, he nodded gently, "——Okay, it's better than I expected."

Then, he raised his head and looked at Yu Chen: "I know you must have many questions. Although time is short, I can answer them one by one for you."

Yu Chen frowned and blurted out, "Who... am I?"

All those who knew his background have always said that he was the reincarnation of King Fengdu.

Even Tianji Taoist thinks so.

But at this moment, this most certain point was overturned.

"I don't know."

The Emperor of Fengdu shook his head. "If you ask about my identity, now you have succeeded me, so you are the Emperor of Fengdu, the Lord of the Underworld, and the True King of Hell. But I don't know where you came from - maybe you are from the future, maybe from the past, maybe from another world, but in short, you are not from the Three Realms."

Yu Chen's eyes widened, he was shocked and confused, "What do you mean?"

"You are the one I chose from outside the Three Realms. I used up my last bit of strength and took away a remnant soul from somewhere outside the Three Realms. That soul is you."

Emperor Fengdu said: "Then, I will put you into a deep sleep and wake you up at the right time.

Before I died, I cut off my skin and flesh, turned my skin into pages, ground my flesh into ink, sealed my tendons and bones, hid countless Taoist methods and holy objects in paper scrolls, forged a book, and sealed your soul in it. "

"The Sutra of Saving People?"

"That's right." The Emperor of Fengdu nodded. "The book contains everything I know, including Taoism, magic, classics, treasures, divinity, and status. Therefore, you who have inherited the book are the Emperor of Fengdu, the Lord of the Underworld. There is no doubt about that."

After listening to this, Yu Chen gradually understood.

My memories of my previous life are not false, but real.

He was indeed not from this world, but came from outside the Three Realms. He was only summoned here by the Emperor of Fengdu after his death.

and so……

"——Why is that?"

The Great Emperor of Fengdu!
One of the three most powerful beings in the Three Realms gave up reincarnation and instead gave everything he had in his life to an alien.

are you crazy?
The King of Fengdu smiled but did not answer immediately. He looked at the chessboard on the table and gently reached out his hand to tap it.

"Can you play chess?"

he asks.

Yu Chen was stunned and nodded.

"Let's play a game." The King of Fengdu ignored him and placed a black piece on his own.

Yu Chen frowned. His chess skills were not unparalleled in the world, but they were also shocking - he knew how to play, but he had never played in practice. Not to mention masters, even a random chess player could pin him to the ground.

But looking at the look on the face of King Fengdu, I’m afraid he won’t say anything unless I play the next game with him.

So he gritted his teeth, picked up the white piece and put it down.

Then, they fought fiercely, refusing to give in...

After a fierce fight between the two noobs, Yu Chen discovered that the King of Fengdu was actually being beaten by himself.

This made him forget his opponent's identity for a short while and focus on the chessboard.

But just when he was about to win the game, Emperor Fengdu smiled slightly and placed another black piece.

Then, his black pieces suddenly became like a whirlpool and ate up all of Yu Chen's white pieces.

——It’s not about capturing according to the rules of the chessboard, but in the physical sense, it means swallowing the white piece.

It seemed like there was a burp.

Yu Chen: "...?"

Cheating, right?

His face turned dark and he stared at the Emperor of Fengdu.

The latter spread his hands and smiled, saying, "In this game of chess, the black pieces are naturally able to devour the white pieces, so no matter how hard the white pieces struggle, they have no chance of winning."

"This is not fair." Yu Chen recognized the urge to speak sweetly due to the other party's identity and spoke.

"Nothing is fair." Fengdu Emperor shook his head. "Eagles are born to catch snakes and eat them. They have flesh and blood that can resist the poison of snakes. Is this fair to snakes?"

Yu Chen raised his eyebrows. Obviously, he didn't think that the King of Fengdu was really a guy who couldn't stand losing the game of chess and would cheat.

So, he must have other meanings when he said these.

such as……

"Just like this black and white piece, the black piece is born with the ability to devour the white piece, becoming stronger and stronger. They are natural enemies."

The Emperor of Fengdu continued, "What if you regard this chessboard as this world, or as... the vast three realms?"

Yu Chen's head buzzed, as if he had grasped something.

Fengdu Emperor reminded again: "——White pieces represent people, demons, monsters, gods, and all living things; then what are black pieces?"

Yu Chen blurted out: "- Ancient Immortals!" Throughout the ages, for all living beings, no matter whether they are humans, gods, demons or monsters, there is only one existence that seems like a natural enemy - Ancient Immortals.

These guys' flesh, blood, breath, strength, body fluids... everything about them is a hopeless poison to all living beings.

"Yes, but not necessarily." Fengdu Emperor took a deep breath and shook his head, saying, "The ancient immortal is a black piece, but a black piece is not necessarily an ancient immortal."

Yu Chen was a little confused, "What do you mean?"

"What it means is that even if the ancient immortals are completely destroyed, there will be ancient demons and ancient monsters... the same messy things, they are also black pieces." Fengdu Emperor lowered his eyes and said, "So, I have another name for black pieces - natural enemy, the heaven and earth of humans, the natural enemy of demons, and the natural enemy of gods. They will die and be defeated, but until all the white pieces are devoured, they will continue to be born, endlessly."

After that, he looked at Yu Chen, and said meaningfully, "So, how are you going to win?"

Yu Chen looked at the chessboard and the vicious black pieces. He was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised his hand and flipped the chessboard!

Black and white pieces were scattered all over the ground with a crackling sound.

"Like this!" he replied, "—you may not win, but you will definitely not lose."

"This is indeed a method, but... if the chessboard is overturned, the Three Realms will be gone, and everything will be meaningless." The Emperor of Fengdu shook his head.

With a wave of his hand, the chessboard reappeared.

Yu Chen frowned.

The Emperor of Fengdu did not urge him, but just waited quietly.

Suddenly, Yu Chen clenched his fist and punched towards the Emperor of Fengdu.

Stop an inch before his face.

He took a deep breath, "Since the chess pieces have no chance of winning, the only thing left is to defeat the chess player!"

The King of Fengdu looked at the fist that was so close to him and smiled.

Laughing heartily.

He asked Yu Chen to sit down again and let out a long breath: "Yes, the chess pieces have no chance of winning. If you want to win, you have to defeat the chess player."

But he pointed at the chessboard and said, "But the chess pieces on the chessboard were born on the chessboard. They can't jump out of the chessboard in this life, let alone attack the chess player. What can we do?"

Yu Chen almost blurted out: "The chess pieces can't do it, but I can, because I was not born on the chessboard..."

At this point, he himself was stunned.

It seemed that his biggest doubt had been resolved.

self-mumbling.

"You can't, but I can, because I was not born in... the Three Realms?"

Emperor Fengdu took a deep breath and said, "——That's right."

He said: "So you understand, I will not take your body, and it is impossible to take your body, because you... are the key to breaking the situation."

For a moment, Yu Chen felt his scalp tingling and he was under tremendous pressure.

——To be honest, your statement is worse than taking over another’s body!
He understood what King Fengdu meant.

"Ancient Immortal" is just a chess piece, and behind the Ancient Immortal, there are people playing chess.

Even if they tried their best to kill Gu Xian, as long as the person playing chess was still there, the white pieces would have no chance of survival.

And because no matter whether it is the Emperor of Fengdu, the Emperor of Gods, or Zhen Yuanzi, they were all born in the Three Realms and could not jump out of the chessboard to play against the chess players on the chessboard, so he pulled in Yu Chen, who did not belong to the outside world but came from another world!

Put everything on him.

and so……

"Who is the chess player?" Yu Chen asked, rubbing his temple.

"I don't know."

Emperor Fengdu shook his head directly and said, “But at the end of the Falling Heaven War, I found an ancient true spirit in the body of an ancient immortal.

He came from the previous era, an era as prosperous as the Three Realms today, but it was reduced to ashes due to a horrible disaster.

The ancient immortal lineage, or "black spots", is like a set rule. When an era reaches its peak, it appears and destroys the entire era, returning it to chaos. In this way, a new era is born in chaos.

It goes on and on, in a cycle.”

The Emperor of Fengdu raised his head and gazed towards the sky, as if he saw something behind the heaven and earth.

"——And I am not even sure whether the so-called chess player is a living being, a will of some kind, or just a rule that cannot be violated.

Just when I was about to delve deeper, a strange and powerful force stopped me - it had nothing to do with strength, cultivation, or status. It was simply that I was completely unable to resist it, because I was born in the Three Realms and was on a chessboard.

Then, I realized that to break this endless deadlock, only beings outside the chessboard can do it, and can be immune to such terrible suppression, such as... you. "

After hearing this, Yu Chen was silent for a long time, "Daoist Tianji... no, do Zhen Yuanzi and the God Emperor know about this?"

Emperor Fengdu shook his head. "They fell asleep and faked their deaths before me. When I discovered all this, they had already buried themselves in their respective arrangements in anticipation of a future counterattack."

Yu Chen nodded.

The Emperor of Fengdu took a deep breath, stood up, and said, "Foreigner, my throne, my inheritance, my treasures, my underworld, and my reincarnation are all handed over to you! I only ask you to do me a favor."

Having said this, the ancient emperor actually bowed.

"——Protect our three realms, and we will prosper forever."
