Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 292: Chess Formation and Military Strength
If the sword art doesn't reach a higher level, will it not leave Tianzi Peak?

What about this?!

Lu Ping was just wondering when he heard Fang Heying change the subject: "It's just..."

"Just what?!"

Seeing that the other party was hesitant to speak, Lu Ping immediately turned into a spectator. He wished he could stay here tonight and chat with Fang Heying all night long to listen to his stories and thoughts.

"Senior, you are a real man, why do you have to keep your mouth shut?"

After hearing this, Fang Heying calmed down and slowly spoke the rest of the words.

"However, today I saw that the young man has mastered a set of peerless martial arts at such a young age. Fang suddenly felt that the Yangtze River has always been full of talents."

"I have been studying the way of the sword for decades, and I thought I had improved a lot. But I didn't realize that I have been abandoned by the martial arts world. If I want to take revenge one day, I am afraid it will be in vain."

Damn it, the dog-licker brother was finally hit!
"So I've figured it out. Instead of continuing to waste my time here, I might as well give it a try while I can still lift the sword!"

Lu Ping was just about to find words of comfort when he suddenly saw Fang Heying take out two letters from his arms and hand them to him.

"I wrote these two letters many years ago, but I was always hesitant, so I couldn't send them out. I could only keep them with me."

"Your presence here today may be a destiny that allows me to send the letter through your hand. I wonder if you are free to help me with this?"

"Sending a letter...?"

Lu Ping reached out to take the envelope, but saw that the words on the two letters were different. One was written "From Fang Biling" and the other was written "From Dongfang Yuxuan".

Even without opening them, Lu Ping knew what the two letters were just by thinking with his toes. The one sent to Fang Biling must be a love letter, and as for the one sent to Dongfang Yuxuan, it was most likely a challenge!
Lu Ping took a breath of cold air instantly.

is this okay?

I was playing the role of the Valley Master in the Fingertips Arena, but now I have to help his love rival deliver love letters and challenge letters...

"Free! So free!"

Without any hesitation, Lu Ping shouted excitedly, and then couldn't wait to put the envelope in his arms, fearing that Fang Heying would change his mind.

How can sentimentality be as enjoyable as watching a show?
It was not until he saw Fang Heying's strange look that he realized his mistake and quickly restrained his expression: "Ahem... I mean, I wonder where these two letters should be sent to?"

Fang Heying was immersed in sorrow at the moment, and did not pay much attention to Lu Ping's abnormality. He replied: "Of course, it was sent to the master of Wanhua Valley, Dongfang Yuxuan, and the master of Jueqing Valley, Fang Biling."

"The Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers is a famous place in the martial arts world. You can find out where it is with a little inquiry. As for the Valley of Absolute Lovelessness, it is near the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, but not many people know about it. Please spend more time looking for it."

"This matter is easy, just leave it to me!"

Lu Ping nodded, patted his chest and agreed. Suddenly he remembered something and asked curiously, "Since Wanhua Valley is a martial arts resort, there must be a teleportation point in the valley. Can't I use the teleportation stone to go there?"

This was originally an unintentional remark, but unexpectedly, Fang Heying was surprised when he heard it and said "Huh".

"Teleportation Stone... I heard that this kind of rare item has lost its function hundreds of years ago. Don't you know that?"

“…Huh?”

Fang Heying was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized and smiled: "So that's how it is. No wonder you didn't know this is Tianzi Peak, but appeared here. You must have come here through the teleportation stone."

Oh no, it’s exposed again!

Lu Ping was immediately ashamed, but he heard Fang Heying continue to talk.

"According to historical records, after the great changes in the world, the teleportation stones in the East Wulin have become ineffective. Only a few scattered teleportation stones that have drifted to other Wulins are still effective."

"Young man, since you suddenly mentioned this, you must have come from another martial world!"

"So there is a space passage connecting to other martial arts worlds at the top of Tianzi Peak..."

"That's not right. Young man, since you are from another martial world, how do you know about my Fang family of Eastern Penglai?"

This and that...

Lu Ping's eyes dodged for a moment, then he turned around, stepped onto the suspension bridge, and flew dozens of feet away in a breath.

"I'll help you deliver the letter!"

Fang Heying looked at Lu Ping's gradually receding back and was silent for a moment.

As for Lu Ping, as soon as he walked out of the suspension bridge, a huge chessboard appeared in front of him.

This place is another peak in the Nanping Mountains, namely Yiqi Peak. The chessboard in front of you is both a corner of Yiqi Peak and the source of its name.

There is a stone statue sitting at each corner of the chessboard, and many bamboo branches are dotted around it. On the chessboard, there are 19 crisscrossing lines, with many black and white stone chess pieces scattered on it, and each chess piece is as tall as an adult.

The road is flat from the east, and the west and south sides of Yiqi Peak are blocked by mountain walls. The only passage is on the north side. If you want to get through, you must pass the chess table. However, this chess table is not an ordinary decoration, but a chess formation.

The person who arranged the chess formation here was none other than the 'chess saint' Wang Jixin, one of the seven saints of Wanhua Valley.

Wang Jixin was a man who indulged himself in chess all his life. He once used his understanding of chess and the skills taught by the monk "Sage of Craftsmanship" to set up a chess formation here to block the way of people from the martial arts world.

Lu Ping was not in a hurry to go forward. He just stood outside the formation and carefully observed the changes on the chessboard, but gained nothing. He thought that the formation would only be activated if he entered the formation.

"First it was the sword formation, and next is the chess formation? There are so many people in the Eastern Wulin who can set up formations!"

After complaining, Lu Ping no longer hesitated and stepped into the formation.

The moment he stepped into the chess formation, the formation sensed the arrival of the challenger and started to move spontaneously. The surrounding black and white chess pieces instantly turned into thousands of troops, forming a military formation to surround and kill him.

"Hey, hey, hey... This seems different from what I saw in the game!"

In fact, Lu Ping has never played the Jiansan PC game. He has only played Zhijian Jianghu, understood some of the plot, and watched the anime adapted from the Shen Jianxin series of games.

The chess formation copy of Tianzi Peak has only appeared in the PC game, but players only need to chop the chess pieces in the game, and there is no need to deal with the army in front of them in this way.

After being startled, Lu Ping quickly collected his thoughts, moved nimbly, and defended without any flaws. After a short moment, he had figured out one-third of the secrets of the chess formation.

"The chess formation turns into a military formation. Although it looks dangerous, its lethality does not seem to be great..."

Lu Ping thought about it for a moment and figured out the reason.

The chess formation in front of him was different from the sword formation on Tianzi Peak before.

That sword formation was not left there intentionally by someone. It was simply the sword intent of Fang Qian and the Sword Saint, combined with the geographical energy, which formed naturally. Therefore, its power was less than one-tenth of the original one.

Although this chess formation was intentionally set up by Wang Jixin, he is not a martial arts master. Even if he uses the power of the formation to form a military formation, the lethality is ultimately limited. He can only trap and repel the enemy, but it is difficult to kill the enemy.

Sensing the clues of the chess formation, Lu Ping's anger sank. He drew out the Lion Head Sword from the system and used swordsmanship against the enemy for the first time.

"Eight Crazy Dragon Slashes. First move. Dragon Reverse Slash!"

With a long shout, Lu Ping grasped the hilt of the sword with one hand and threw the golden sword out using the force of spinning his body.

But amidst the faint roar of a lion, the lion-head sword, under the control of internal force, began to spin at high speed around Lu Ping. As it spun, the blade rolled up a large amount of wind and sand, which turned into countless sword auras, and chopped in all directions with Lu Ping as the center!

The sword energy was extremely sharp and unstoppable. The chess army would be injured if it touched them, and die if it came into contact with them. The image soldiers exploded and died as soon as they came into contact with them.

But as the formation worked, when one chess soldier died, two were born again, and they could never be killed or eliminated.

Lu Ping knew something was wrong when he saw this, so he immediately turned his palm over, put away the knife, and thought again.

"The chess formation's military power is endless. I think it is relying on the energy of this place. So we should break the center of the formation. But where is the center of this chess formation?"

While thinking, Lu Ping's eyes were attracted by the stone statues around the chess formation.

"Let's try it..."

With three parts of guesswork and seven parts of boldness, Lu Ping changed his tactics and attacked again, aiming at the surrounding stone statues.

"Crazy Dragon Eight Slashes, Sixth Style..."

Close your eyes, relax your shoulders, concentrate your mind, become one with the sword, and spin into the air.

Lu Ping tightly grasped the lion-head sword in both hands, concentrating his energy and concentration, and reached the highest point in the air with a centrifugal rotation. When he opened his eyes again, his whole body seemed to be the majestic Mount Lushan, breaking through the clouds and falling from the sky. Using the acceleration of gravity, he chopped out a supreme and ultimate blow!

"Lushan will not move a single sword mark!"

boom--!
The sword energy was tens of meters long, with great force and heaviness, and the chess formation collapsed at the touch. Thousands of troops disappeared in an instant, and the black and white chess pieces returned to their original state, dominating the chessboard.

The stone statues around the chessboard were no match for the sharp sword energy and they exploded one after another, breaking into countless pieces of stone.

The black and white chess pieces on the board lost contact with the center of the formation and fell to the ground one after another, without making any movement. The huge chessboard below was also cut by the knife, leaving a scar that was more than several feet long and bottomless.

Lu Ping landed gracefully, put the Lion-Head Sword back into the system space, and then looked at the messy chessboard in front of him, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Well, the chess formation has been chopped to pieces and it's hard to restore it. Now anyone can go up to the Tianzi Front..."

"Forget it, forget it. What will happen in the future is none of my business. Why think so much?"

According to memory, there are a total of six bosses in Tianzi Peak, but until Lu Ping walked out of the Nanping Mountain area, he had never seen the other four levels. He didn't know if he didn't run into them by chance, or if those people hadn't settled here yet.

"I don't know how this world has developed..."
