saint of humanity

Judging from the power of this attack alone, it is almost the same as Lu Ye's full-strength attack.

However, Xue Jiu looked solemn.

Because this is not an attack launched by a cultivator, but a manifestation of the power of a treasure. The power of rules contained in it cannot be ignored by anyone.

But he couldn't dodge, because this was the punishment for losing the game of chess. No matter how he dodged, this attack would hit him.

In an instant, Xue Ju had placed numerous blood magic defenses on his sides, almost turning his entire body into a blood cocoon. When the attack came, the blood cocoon dissolved like snowflakes under the scorching sun.

Xue Ju's figure reappeared, he trembled slightly, and groaned, already injured.

Fortunately, the injury was not serious. He was secretly glad that Lu Ye could not exert the full power of the Starry Sky Chessboard, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with.

Looking up, there was no trace of Lu Ye. This guy had taken advantage of the short period of time to escape far away.

Full of blood guilt and hidden hatred, he gritted his teeth and pursued!

Lu Ye, who was fleeing in front, noticed it at the first moment and sped up even faster.

The current situation seems not to have improved much compared to before, but in fact there have been great changes. The Starry Sky Chessboard has been refined by him, and as long as Xue Ju is not a fool, he will not keep staring at him.

Eventually, this Blood Lord needs to return to Blood Drinking City to take charge.

Therefore, as long as he could make Xueju realize that it was useless to continue the pursuit and it would only be a waste of time, Xueju would give up.

If it was before, he didn't have this ability.

But with the help of the Starry Sky Chessboard, he has been able to do it.

It could even be said that he was actually happy to see Xue Ju willing to waste time with him like this, because he could take this opportunity to refine more fragments of the He Dao Pearl.

Half a day later, a new chess game unfolded.

It was as if time was going back. With the end of the game, Lu Ye quickly escaped, leaving Xue Ju to bear the explosion of the power of the treasure.

Another half day.

The third game begins...

This cycle continued until the fifth game began. Lu Ye looked at Xue Jue across the river with a carefree expression: "The Starry Sky Chessboard has recognized me as its master. As the saying goes, treasures belong to those who are destined to be with them. Why does Xue Jue want to fight me to the death? Why don't we just stop here and go back to our own homes?"

Having said that, Lu Ye had actually already seen through Xue Ju's plan.

As one of the ten city lords, how extraordinary is Xue Ju's talent? So even though he only played a few games with Lu Ye, and all without knowing the rules clearly, his chess skills have improved by leaps and bounds. But this guy is deliberately hiding his shortcomings, obviously determined to win the game.

At this point, in a pure chess contest, Lu Ye estimated that he was no match for his opponent.

On the other side of the river, Xue Ju said nothing and just kept playing chess.

As expected, he showed his sharp edge and made many clever moves, and Lu Ye's chess pieces soon suffered heavy losses.

Until a certain moment, a flash of light suddenly burst out from the blood, a heavy artillery fell, and a loud shout came from his mouth: "General!"

Immediately, he raised his head and looked at Lu Ye with fiery eyes: "Now let me see how you die! Hahahaha!"

He felt extremely happy in his heart, thinking that all his hard work and perseverance in studying the subject were worth it. This sudden attack really caught Lu Ye off guard.

In the chess game, his move was decisive, and Lu Ye had no chance of turning the tables.

While laughing, he could almost foresee the wonderful scene of Lu Ye failing, being attacked by the treasure, and being defeated by himself in one fell swoop.

But I heard Lu Ye sneer in my ear.

Then he watched helplessly as Lu Ye made a move that was absolutely impossible!
Xue Jiu stood there, staring at the chess piece in a daze, and then looked at Lu Ye in disbelief: "Can your Shuaiqi cross the river?"

The key point is that this handsome chess piece not only crossed the river, but also jumped over several chess pieces at once.

This is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!
There is no such rule in the chess game.

"What do you know?" Lu Ye said with a sigh, "This is called the commander-in-chief's personal expedition, leaving no grass behind!"

As he finished his words, the remaining chess pieces on his side began to rush around on the chessboard as if they were given life.

Then Xue Jiu saw the horse jump in a "田" shape and viciously trampled his own cannon chess piece to pieces. He stood on the cannon chess piece's corpse and neighed incessantly, looking like a villain who had succeeded.

Then he saw a man in armor following closely behind the general and stabbing his rook to death.

In the blink of an eye, the situation changed.

"You fucking ..." Xue Ju was furious.

He was one of the ten city lords, and he had to compromise and play several games of chess with Lu Ye. He played honestly in every game, just wanting to win a fair victory, but he was treated like this?

Before he could finish his words, Xue Ju pounced towards Lu Ye with murderous intent.

"Can't you afford to play?" Lu Ye shouted angrily.

The bloody murderous intent became even more fierce.

After a moment, Lu Ye fled in a panic, and Xue Ju emerged from the aftermath covered in dust. He looked at Lu Ye's departing figure with a frown.

I was so angry just now that I didn't notice the problem. Now that I think about it, something is wrong.

Because if you really think about it, the Starry Sky Chessboard is a rule-based treasure. To it, its rules are inviolable, and this will not change whether it has an owner or not.

Only by following its rules can it exert its due power.

So even if Lu Ye really succeeded in refining it, he should not be able to ignore its rules at will. The rules of the chess game are set in advance, and no one in the chess game can easily violate them.

If Lu Ye, the master, disobeys, he will inevitably suffer backlash.

But he didn't see any signs of Lu Ye suffering any backlash from beginning to end.

What's happening here?
If so, then wasn't his previous plan just wishful thinking?

He originally thought that as long as he defeated Lu Ye, he would be able to cause the treasure to backfire and then take him down.

At this moment, Lu Ye was frowning and sensing.

Things were not as Xuejiu had imagined. He was actually suffering from backlash, but the process of his refining the Starry Sky Chessboard was different from normal circumstances, so this backlash did not manifest on him.

Instead, it is reflected in the talent tree.

In other words, the talent tree is the master of the starry sky chessboard!
When he wantonly broke the rules and used all means to win that victory, the talent tree shook violently several times, and even Lu Ye's mind was slightly dazed for a moment.

He woke up secretly in shock. It seems that he should do less of this kind of thing in the future. Although he doesn't know what the consequences will be if he does it too much, judging from the current situation, if there are any consequences, he may not be able to bear it.

The aura chasing him from behind was getting closer and closer, giving Lu Ye a headache.

With the help of the chess game to delay for such a long time, most of the fragments of the Hedao Pearl in his hand have been refined. However, Xue Ju has surpassed him in chess skills now, and it might not be appropriate to delay with the chess game any longer.

In a flash, Lu Ye suddenly turned around, and the chessboard spread out, covering all directions.

Xue Ju was furious when he saw this: "Don't even think about it..."

Before he could finish his words, Lu Ye raised his hand to stop him: "Blood Lord, calm down. This time we won't play chess. Let's play another game to ensure fairness!"

Xuejiu frowned because he found that this chessboard seemed to be indeed different from the previous ones.

At the same time, the rules of the chess game are imprinted in the mind.

It turned out not to be chess, but a game called Gobang, which is much simpler than chess and does not leave much room for cheating.

His expression calmed down a bit, and Xue Ju stared at Lu Ye coldly: "You'd better behave yourself. If you dare to do anything wrong again, I will overturn your chessboard!"

Lu Ye laughed: "Don't worry, Blood Lord."

He was a little surprised, as he thought Xuejiu would not agree to play chess with him again.

As time passed, chess pieces fell one by one on both sides.

Until a certain moment, Lu Ye suddenly looked up at Xue Jiu with a look of understanding: "So that's it!"

Xuejiu had suffered such a great loss before, why didn’t he learn his lesson? It turned out that he was waiting for me here.

Just now, he clearly felt an extremely hidden force invading his body, which was obviously the work of Xue Jiu.

It is not known what kind of secret technique this is. If the talent tree had not suddenly reacted, Lu Ye would not have been able to detect it.

It was obvious that Xue Ju agreed to play the chess game in order to perform this secret technique.

"Have you noticed?" Xue Jiu no longer pretended, and looked at Lu Ye with a fierce smile: "It's too late. This is my secret creation. No one in the world can use it except me."

Lu Ye frowned as he made his move and asked, "May I ask Blood Lord, what is the purpose of this secret technique?"

Xue Jiu smiled in an unfathomable way: "You will know if you try it?"

As he spoke, he casually wrote a word.

Lu Ye couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, because Xue Ju did not block his chess pieces, which obviously meant he had given up the game and was ready to bear the punishment for failure.

This was not the first time for him, and it was not unbearable.

Seeing this, Lu Ye would not be polite to him. After the last chess piece fell, he flashed out of the chessboard.

The power of the treasure behind him exploded, and Lu Ye had already flashed to a place tens of thousands of miles away. Suddenly he felt creepy, and when he turned around, he found that Xue Ju was standing not far behind him, looking at him with a smile.

Lu Ye was greatly shocked. The pursuit during this period made him realize how unfathomable this Blood Lord was, but the other party's speed did not seem to be so fast before.

And this was no longer something that could be explained. He was simply elusive and Lu Ye didn't detect any trace of him moving at all.

He continued to flee, not believing in evil.

However, every time he looked back, Xue Ju was following him not far behind like a ghost.

"Don't waste your thoughts." After several times, Xue Jiu said with a smile: "Once I use this secret technique, you will never be able to escape. My body will be like a real shadow, following you wherever you go."

Lu Ye said in a deep voice: "The Blood Lord's secret technique is indeed amazing."

"Since you know what you have achieved, why do you have to resist?"

Lu Ye sneered: "But it seems that there are also some disadvantages?"

Xue Jiu raised his eyebrows: "What did you see?"

Lu Ye said: "It seems that the Blood Lord can't attack at will?"

They were so close to each other, if Xue Ju could attack at will, he would have done it long ago, how could he really follow me like a shadow? (End of this chapter)
