The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

Jiang Chuan, Qing Yun, and the Bull Demon King looked solemn as they watched the white tiger roar and the war eagle cry, as a torrent of violent demonic power poured down upon them.

They knew that there was no room for complacency at this moment and that they had to respond immediately.

"Everyone, deploy your shields!"

"Spirit Shield - Guardian!"

Jiang Chuan let out a low shout, pointing the tip of his Dragon Roar Sword at the sky, with lightning flashing around it.

Qingyun also poured his Qinglin power into Jiangchuan's body.

A deep blue spiritual energy shield instantly formed around him and Qingyun.

This shield was like a solid barrier, with lightning patterns flashing on it, and countless bolts of lightning ready to be unleashed at any moment.

"Demon Power - Iron Wall!"

The Bull Demon King also channeled his demonic power, plunging his iron cudgel heavily into the ground.

Suddenly, a surge of powerful black demonic energy erupted from the staff, instantly transforming into a thick black shield that enveloped him.

This demonic iron wall is as solid as a rock, with demonic patterns flowing across it, exuding an incomparably powerful defensive force.

The ferocious black pieces slammed into the two shields like a storm, each collision generating intense energy ripples that made the air buzz.

However, neither Jiang Chuan's spiritual shield nor the Bull Demon King's demonic iron wall remained unshaken, and no matter how the black pieces attacked, they could not break through even an inch.

The white tiger opened its sharp claws, its eyes blazing with blood-red flames, as if it wanted to devour the three people in front of it.

It roared and charged forward like lightning, its sharp claws leaving trails of bloody afterimages as it pounced on Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun.

"Aoki Tornado!"

Qingyun held the jade sword and swung it through the air. A emerald green sword aura instantly transformed into a spiraling tornado, heading straight for the white tiger.

Within the tornado, the vibrant power of the green wood clashed violently with the white tiger's blood flames, erupting with dazzling light and forcefully withstanding the white tiger's impact.

At the same time, Jiang Chuan brandished the Dragon Roar Sword, and streaks of lightning transformed into a dense rain of swords, which accurately shot towards the White Tiger.

Lightning and blood flames intertwined, crackling and popping, each collision leaving a deep wound on the white tiger's body.

Despite the White Tiger's fierce attacks, thanks to the tacit cooperation between Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun, it was unable to get even a fraction closer to the two.

It could only roar wildly outside the spirit shield, becoming increasingly frenzied.

As for the war eagle that was gradually growing larger, it did not directly join the battle.

However, the range of the spiritual energy waves it released continued to expand, causing the spiritual energy in the entire chessboard space to become chaotic.

This caused great trouble for Jiang Chuan and others.

They had to deal with the White Tiger's frenzied attacks, resist the Black's continuous assault, and be constantly on guard against the Warhawk's spiritual energy interference, which led to a stalemate.

"Qingyun, concentrate your forces, let's deal with the White Tiger first!"

Jiang Chuan shouted to Qingyun while fending off the attacks from the black pieces.

"understand!"

Qingyun responded, and the emerald light on the jade sword became even more dazzling. He poured all the spiritual power in his body into the sword, preparing to launch a fatal blow.

"Dragon's Roar - Thunder Prison Slash!"

Jiang Chuan shouted, and the Dragon Roar Sword in his hand instantly burst forth with dazzling lightning, forming a huge lightning blade that cleaved straight at the White Tiger.

"Aoki - Soul-Shattering Slash!"

Qingyun also went all out, and a green sword light condensed on his jade sword, slashing towards the white tiger like a rainbow piercing the sun.

The two sword lights converged in the air, forming a powerful shockwave that rushed straight towards the White Tiger.

A flicker of fear flashed in the white tiger's eyes, but it was too late to dodge and could only take the blow head-on.

"boom--"

The power of thunder and green wood intertwined, instantly engulfing the white tiger.

But despite such a fierce attack, the white tiger did not retreat but advanced instead!

This caused the pupils of the group to widen involuntarily.

Suddenly, the white tiger vanished from the spot.

The sudden disappearance of the white tiger made Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun's hearts tighten.

Before they could recover from their shock, they heard the Bull Demon King's heart-wrenching screams.

The Bull Demon King's figure drew an arc in mid-air, flying straight back like a kite with a broken string, a thick leg was missing, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

"Bull Demon!"

Jiang Chuan exclaimed in surprise, his gaze fixed on the Bull Demon King's pained and contorted face, his heart burning with rage.

The white tiger reappeared, a bloodthirsty smile on its lips.

The severed leg of the Bull Demon King, which had been ripped off, still clung to the sharp claws. Drops of blood dripped from the sharp claw tips, hitting the chessboard with a chilling sound.

It stood proudly among the black pieces, like an evil god who controlled life and death, its gaze sweeping defiantly over Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun.

The sinister voice of the evil demon then rang out.

"This is the consequence of your betrayal of the demon race. This is only the first step. I will slowly torture you to death!"

Before the words were even finished, the evil aura in the air grew even stronger.

Jiang Chuan glared angrily, his indignation turning into boundless fighting spirit.

He gripped the Dragon Roar Sword tightly, its blade crackling with lightning, like a silver serpent poised to strike.

He growled, "You hurt my brother, today I will make you pay!"

As soon as he finished speaking, lightning blazed around Jiang Chuan, and a powerful pressure instantly swept across the entire chessboard space.

"Wind Slash!"

Jiang Chuan roared, and the Dragon Roar Sword in his hand swept like a whirlwind, carrying the power of thunder, transforming into a whirlwind of sword light that rushed straight towards the White Tiger.

The sword light was as swift as lightning, cutting clear cracks in the air wherever it passed, with howling winds and exploding thunder, like the wrath of heaven and earth.

Seeing this, the white tiger's eyes flashed with a hint of fear, but it did not back down. Instead, it opened its mouth and roared, and a burst of blood-red demonic energy burst out from its mouth, colliding head-on with Jiang Chuan's Wind Slash.

In an instant, wind and thunder roared, and blood splattered everywhere.

The entire space seemed to be torn apart, with violent energy ripples raging, even the surrounding black pieces were shaken and sent flying everywhere.

Qingyun was extremely anxious upon witnessing this scene.

He knew that if he couldn't provide timely support to Jiang Chuan, he would likely be in extreme danger.

However, at this moment, countless black pieces surged in like a tide, frantically crashing against the spiritual shield that he and Jiang Chuan had jointly built, making it difficult for him to extricate himself.

Qingyun gritted his teeth and raised his jade sword high.

The power of the Azure Scales within his body surged wildly, instantly strengthening his spiritual shield several times over, forcefully withstanding the frenzied attack of the Black Piece.

"Big brother, hang in there, I'll be there soon!"

Qingyun roared, his gaze resolute.

He suppressed the surging blood and qi within him, and brandished his jade sword in the air, unleashing streaks of emerald green sword energy like a storm towards the black pieces, attempting to break the deadlock.

Black was forced back by Qingyun's counterattack, and the offensive slowed down slightly, but the pressure on him was not completely lifted.

Qingyun took a deep breath, and the jade sword flashed with emerald light. A powerful force of life gathered into a huge green wooden barrier, tightly protecting him and Jiang Chuan within it.

He used himself as a shield, buying Jiang Chuan a precious breathing space. "I refuse to believe there's no way to break this chessboard!"

Jiang Chuan's gaze burned with fervor. He raised the Dragon Roar Sword high, his entire body crackling with lightning. The power of the Wind Slash increased once more, like thunder in the eye of a storm, aimed directly at the White Tiger.

"White Tiger, take this!"

Jiang Chuan let out a sharp shout, and the Wind Slash instantly erupted, transforming into a thunderous storm that charged straight towards the White Tiger with destructive power.

The white tiger roared, its crimson demonic energy surging and clashing fiercely with Jiang Chuan's Wind Slash once again.

"boom--"

Amidst the deafening explosion, thunder and demonic energy intertwined, and gales and blood-red light danced together, causing the entire chessboard space to tremble.

The white tiger's figure appeared and disappeared in the storm.

Jiang Chuan's all-out attack, though failing to completely defeat the White Tiger, still inflicted heavy damage on it.

However, at that moment, the mocking voice of the evil chess demon rang out again, like a cold wind blowing across the chessboard space, sending chills down one's spine.

"Hmph, the game between us is over!"

The evil demon sneered, his voice filled with contempt and smugness.

As he finished speaking, several ferocious wolves with grotesque faces and bloodshot eyes suddenly appeared on the once tranquil chessboard.

They were agile and had menacing fangs in their mouths. An aura of greed and savagery emanated from them.

"This wolf is named the Greedy Wolf."

The evil demon slowly introduced himself, seemingly confident of victory.

"They will devour everything that stands in my way, including your hopes."

The crowd was still reeling from this sudden turn of events.

The greedy wolves had already opened their bloody mouths and were devouring the white pieces that had just been placed on the chessboard.

The spiritual power originally contained within the white pieces was absorbed like flowing water and merged into the bodies of the wolves as they greedily devoured it.

"how is this possible?"

Qingyun stared in astonishment at this scene, his jade sword trembling slightly. "These wolves can actually devour Bai Qi's spiritual power?"

Jiang Chuan also had a solemn expression. He stared intently at those greedy wolves, remaining vigilant in his heart.

He clearly sensed that as the white pieces were devoured, the demonic energy that had just weakened began to recover, and its momentum was even stronger.

"The situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable for us."

Jiang Chuan said to Qingyun in a low voice, his gaze firm, "We must find a solution as soon as possible."

"But these wolves are powerful and can devour spiritual energy. How can we deal with them?"

Qingyun frowned, clearly feeling helpless about the situation.

The evil inner demon seemed to have seen through their worries.

He smiled arrogantly, his tone full of sarcasm: "Foolish humans, this is my home turf, and your lives are entirely in my hands!"

Upon hearing this, a flash of anger appeared in Jiang Chuan's eyes.

He stepped forward and faced the inner demons of evil, showing no weakness: "Don't be too smug, inner demons."

"We may be at a disadvantage for now, but as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we will never give up the fight!"

"Really?"

The Demon of Evil Chess curled a cold smile at the corner of his lips, "Then let me see how you find a way to survive on my chessboard!"

"Qingyun, let's join forces and see if we can use sword energy to stimulate the spiritual energy fluctuations within the chessboard. Perhaps we can find a way to break the deadlock."

Jiang Chuan made a quick decision, exchanged glances with Qing Yun, and the two nodded simultaneously, showing perfect understanding.

Qingyun took a deep breath, and the jade sword drew a beautiful arc in the air, with emerald green sword energy like silk threads, swirling around the sword.

Jiang Chuan brandished the Dragon Roar Sword, unleashing a surge of thunderous power that mingled with Qingyun's sword energy.

"Aoki - Spirit Summoning Slash!"

Qingyun let out a low shout, and the jade sword instantly burst forth with a dazzling emerald light. The sword energy swept out like a tornado, striking the chessboard directly.

"Dragon's Roar - Thunderous Break!"

Jiang Chuan followed closely behind, his Dragon Roar Sword crackling with lightning as a bolt of lightning shot out, precisely colliding with Qingyun's Summoning Slash.

The moment the two forces collided, a strong fluctuation of spiritual energy rippled through the chessboard space, as if a dormant power had been awakened.

The black and white stones, which were originally stationary, began to move on their own under the influence of this fluctuation, as if they had come to life.

Upon seeing this, Evil Heart Demon's expression changed slightly; he clearly hadn't expected Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun to cause such a change.

But he quickly adjusted his mindset and sneered, "Even if you can manipulate the power of the chessboard, you cannot change the final outcome."

"Because you can never defeat me!"

Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun did not respond; they were completely focused on guiding the fluctuations of spiritual energy within the chessboard, trying to find a way to break the game.

Under the influence of the fluctuations in spiritual energy, the greedy wolves also seemed to become restless. They frantically pounced on Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun, attempting to stop them from continuing their actions.

"Qingyun, let's join forces to kill a vicious wolf and see if we can break this deadlock!"

Jiang Chuan made a loud suggestion during the battle.

"it is good!"

Qingyun agreed without hesitation. The two of them tacitly locked onto a greedy wolf each, and the sword energy and thunder power intertwined to form two powerful attacks, which struck the target respectively.

"Aoki - Earth-Splitting Slash!"

The Azure Cloud Sword Qi surged like a rainbow, instantly piercing through the selected wolf's body and splitting it in two.

"Dragon's Roar - Thunder Slash!"

At the same moment, Jiang Chuan's Thunder Sword struck down, cleaving another wolf into pieces.

The two greedy wolves were instantly annihilated, and the white chess spirit energy that had been devoured from their bodies surged out like a tide, merging into the chessboard space, causing the demonic energy that had just recovered to weaken again.

"efficient!"

A look of joy flashed in Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun's eyes. They realized that as long as they eliminated the wolf of greed, they could weaken the power of the evil demon in their hearts and find a way to break the deadlock.

"It seems our strategy was correct."

Qingyun looked slightly tired, but his eyes were even more determined. "If we can eliminate a few more wolves, we might be able to break this game completely."

"That's right, Evil Game Demon, your game is about to end!"

Jiang Chuan gripped the Dragon Roar Sword tightly, his eyes blazing. He looked at the Evil Heart Demon and said, word by word, "Next, it's time for our counterattack!"

The Demon of Evil looked at Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun, a hint of surprise flashing across his face, but he quickly regained his cold smile: "Hmph, quite the boast. Then let me see how you turn the tide!"

Qingyun and Jiangchuan joined forces and successfully killed the two greedy wolves, which not only weakened the power of the evil demon in their hearts, but also revealed the key to breaking the deadlock.

Their confidence soared, and they prepared to continue fighting the remaining wolves and break the deadlock.

However, at this critical moment, the demonic power within the chessboard space suddenly surged, and a heart-pounding pressure rolled in like a giant wave, almost suffocating people.

"Ha ha!"

The evil demon in the game laughed wildly, its voice echoing across the chessboard space, making everyone's eardrums ache.

"You think you can change your fate like this? How naive!" (End of Chapter)
