Ascent of Hero on the Dragon Throne

After he finished up his work in the lab, Rocky headed over to the Scarlet Heaven Jade. He had successfully challenged Darius and learned the peerless swordsmanship last time, so he moved on to challenge another spiritual tablet. That tablet belonged to a powerful being, Lorenzo, who used to be famous in the Supreme Ether Land.

Soon, he found that the patterns on the chessboard were like dynamic pictures, constantly changing according to certain shapes.

"What on earth is this? Could it be an array? But it doesn't look like that. The array doesn't change so randomly. It looks too informal..." Rocky speculated, his eyes filled with wonder.
