With cannon fodder, become the best in the world

Jimo Yanzhou said calmly: "A bad chess player is used to describe a person who has poor chess skills but is particularly obsessed with chess. But I am not like that. I didn't know how to play chess at all. It was only when you insisted on playing chess with me that I learned it. I don't actually have any chess skills, and... I hate playing chess the most." If Yun'er hadn't wanted Cuscuta to die so easily, he would not have played chess with Zhou Yun.

Before, he was panicking and scared because he was playing with Zhou Yun's life, but now he is playing with the monster's life, so he has nothing to worry about. He is in a good mood and feels happy every time he makes a move.

Zhou Yun casually placed the chess pieces on the board. Jimo Yanzhou was even more casual than her.

Feng Tinghai, who was standing aside, couldn't bear to watch it anymore. He shook his head, sat aside, and watched the scattered vines of Dodder being turned into ashes one by one by the killing array in the formation.

Cuscuta could no longer hold on and begged for mercy: "I know I was wrong, please spare my life. I am willing to sacrifice my thousand years of cultivation. I only ask for a glimmer of hope. Please."

Jimo Yanzhou quickly dropped the white piece in his hand onto the chessboard, admiring the embarrassed look of Dodder begging for mercy. He suddenly felt relieved. Thinking back to the past, this old monster had tortured him in the same way. This was called tit for tat. He snorted softly, "What's the point of you begging for mercy? I'm a lousy chess player anyway. You've already scolded me, so how can I feel any sympathy for you?"

Zhou Yun placed a black piece next to the white piece and muttered in a clear voice: "You deceived the royal poinciana in the same way. You are not a dog, how can I spare your life?"

Cuscuta could no longer maintain its transformed form and begged for mercy, "I beg the immortals to have mercy on me and spare my life. I am willing to serve you like a slave, please spare my life!"

Feng Tinghai shook his head and said calmly: "You are just a parasitic weed, what qualifications do you have to become a cow or a horse?"

"I..." Dodder was stunned, realizing that she had no chance of survival at all. She knelt there and trembled in fear.

Zhou Yun ate a few more chess pieces of Jimo Yanzhou and glanced at Jimo Yanzhou: "Don't make moves randomly. Look at what the demon vine has been worn into by the formation."

"Okay, then I'll study it slowly before making my move. Actually, seeing the old monster in this state, I feel sorry for it." Although he said this, there was no guilt on his face.

Jimo Yanzhou was in a good mood when he saw his chess piece being eaten. This was much more fun than playing chess with the old vine just now, and there was no pressure at all. So he responded to the dodder: "You are just a grass. There are so many plants in this world. The world will still turn without you, a poisonous grass. Otherwise, you'd better die early."

A few more thin vines transformed by the spiritual power were cut off from the dodder, and it said, "I am not a poisonous weed. I am not poisonous. I am obviously a kind of medicinal herb."

"Haven't you heard that all medicines are poisonous? Besides, if you weren't poisonous, how could the Delonix Regia die? I think you're more hateful than poisonous weeds." Jimo Yanzhou was so angry that he casually placed a piece on the chessboard, causing the demon vine to be hit by several attacks from the formation.

Zhou Yun had almost finished playing, so he made a decisive move.

Jimo Yanzhou stared at the white piece that had nowhere to go, and said, "Yun'er, how many steps did you give me?"

There aren't many moves, I just keep trying my best to make each of your chess pieces move a few more steps. The girl smiled slightly, with a sparkling light in her eyes, and said softly: "Brother has a talent for playing chess."

When Zhou Yun said this, Jimo Yanzhou was stunned and felt proud in his heart: Yun'er, she said I have talent. She praised me so much, she must admire me very much!

The system laughed: Stupid! She has been giving in to you from the beginning, didn't you see that? She just wanted to play with the poison ivy a little more.

The strangulation formation was activated in the array, and the dodder turned into ashes and quickly disappeared.

Feng Tinghai stretched out his hand, and the gray-white demon pill fell into his palm. He took a look and said, "It has absorbed so much demon power from the Phoenix tree, but it is still such a low-grade demon. Even the demon pill is very gray."

After Feng Tinghai finished speaking, he threw the demon pill to Zhou Yun with a look of disdain. He really despised demon pills of this grade.

Suddenly, there was a tremor under his feet, and Jimo Yanzhou lost his balance and was almost blown away. Feng Tinghai flew over and used magic to cover the two of them, saying, "Be careful, if you are accidentally drawn into the inner demon illusion, it will be very dangerous."

"What illusion?" Jimo Yanzhou frowned.

"The inner demon illusion." Feng Tinghai said.

Jimo Yanzhou murmured to himself: "Fortunately, I have always been heartless and have no inner demons." Even though he died so many times, he did not grow a heart, so the illusion of inner demons was of no use to him.

"The inner demon illusion is not your own inner demon as you understand it, but the inner demon of your companion. This is the most terrifying thing, because you will never know what your body partner is thinking deep down." Feng Tinghai explained.

"In other words, we will be drawn into the inner demons and illusions of our companions. If my companions have evil hearts, then I will be in danger." Zhou Yun asked him.

Feng Tinghai said: "That's true, but if your companions don't have inner demons, then you won't be in any danger. At a certain time, the illusion will naturally dissipate."

"It's like I have intruded into someone else's dream. If the dreamer has no evil thoughts in his heart, then after a certain period of time, the dream will wake up and the illusion will be lifted." Zhou Yun glanced at Jimo Yanzhou and Feng Tinghai. Jimo Yanzhou has always been a simple and kind person. Even if he has a demon in his heart, the harm caused by the demon should not be great. As for Feng Tinghai, Zhou Yun did not know him well. Even if Feng Tinghai gave her the impression of being an upright cultivator at this moment, she did not know whether Feng Tinghai's heart was the same as it appeared.

Feng Tinghai saw that Zhou Yun was looking at him with a very obscure look, and he immediately knew that this little girl clearly did not trust him and was on guard against him. He sighed and said to Zhou Yun: "If you are drawn into an illusion, no matter what you find or encounter, don't believe it. Just judge based on your own cognition and thoughts. I believe you can put me at ease."

Before Feng Tinghai could finish his words, darkness fell all around him.

I don't know how long it took before the darkness gradually dissipated. The sun was shining brightly in front of me, the breeze was blowing gently, and the noisy sounds of the crowd were in my ears.

Jimo Yanzhou looked at the huge square in front of him with a blank face. The square was full of people, all dressed as monks. He searched around for Zhou Yun, but did not see any trace of Zhou Yun, nor did he sense Zhou Yun's breath. Then Jimo Yanzhou looked for Feng Tinghai in the crowd.

But Feng Tinghai was standing on the arena with a sword in his hand. He was facing off against a monk who was wearing white brocade clothes and also holding a sword.

Jimo Yanzhou was anxious: "System, the man standing on the stage looks a lot like Feng Tinghai. Where is my Yun'er? Will something happen to her?"

The system snorted: Good eyesight, the one on the ring is Feng Tinghai!

Jimo Yanzhou asked worriedly: What about my Yun'er?

The system was stunned for a while, and then slowly said: I can't sense Zhou Xiaomei. She shouldn't be around here.

Upon hearing that Zhou Yun was not nearby, Jimo Yanzhou became anxious: Let's go find her quickly. She is a little girl, young and simple-minded. If she is not with us, something must have happened to her.

As he said this, he wanted to turn around and leave, but was stopped by a young female cultivator. The female cultivator was beautiful, wearing a snow-white dress, and her hair accessories were also magical instruments that contained spiritual power. A strange-looking raccoon slave was following her.

"Sixth Brother, the eldest brother is competing with the disciples of the Hehuan Sect. Where are you going?" The female cultivator had a soft voice and looked playful and cute when she smiled.

Jimo Yanzhou stood there in a daze, looking at the female cultivator and asked the system: No, who is she?

You call me Senior Brother right from the start, why am I still the sixth one? Can't you call me something else? Can't you give me a better ranking?

The system yawned lazily and said: Judging from the setting, she is the junior sister of the Cangwu Sect, your great-great-great-grandmother.

Jimo Yanzhou: Damn, system, how did you know she was the junior sister of Cangwu Sect? My wife is too big... Grandmother, is that Jimo Lexian's wife?

The system spoke in an appreciative tone, "That's right, short-lived ghost. The person in front of you is your ancestor. You have become your ancestor's senior brother."

Jimo Yanzhou frowned: "Dog system, you are not talking nonsense."

The system chuckled and said, "There is a name and title displayed above her head. You didn't expect that, did you? I didn't expect that either."

Jimo Yanzhou: "Why didn't I see it?"

The system was stunned for a moment, then said, "That's because you're stupid. It's normal that you can't see it."

What name and title would be displayed? It’s not the emperor’s new clothes. Jimo Yanzhou suspected that the system was deliberately looking for trouble to make fun of him.

"Sixth senior brother, what's wrong with you? You look weird." The little sister from Cangwu Sect pouted and spoke in a coquettish tone.

Jimo Yanzhou wanted to shake off the hand of the junior sister that was grabbing his sleeve, but after thinking about it, he realized that she was his ancestor after all. He paused in shaking his sleeve, then gently pulled the sleeve out of the junior sister's hand and said, "I still have something to do. Senior Brother is so powerful that he will definitely win this battle. Junior sister...you...you don't have to worry!"

The younger sister didn't notice that Jimo Yanzhou's words were too respectful. She just thought of the eldest brother and became worried. So she frowned and said, "The eldest brother has won ten games in a row and hasn't had a rest. I'm afraid that he won't have enough energy after so many games, but I don't dare to let him rest. But... Sixth Brother, you really look like you have a problem."

Jimo Yanzhou was stared at by the junior sister, and the junior sister's eyes seemed to be able to see through him. He suddenly said: "Junior sister, listen to me, the truth is, I may have a stomachache, and I need to find a place to relieve myself. You... old man, stay here and look after the senior brother, I will be back soon."

The junior sister looked at Jimo Yanzhou doubtfully and said, "Then go quickly."

Jimo Yanzhou then hurriedly left the square and walked to a secluded place, muttering, "Whose inner demon have I fallen into? Didn't Feng Tinghai tell me not to trust anyone? I think that little sister looks quite cute, and she speaks softly and in a clip-like voice. Just like this, Sixth Senior Brother, I'm worried about the eldest senior brother."

The system laughed: Of course, she can’t hold it as well as you.

Jimo Yanzhou: Now hurry up and find my Yun'er. She is a little girl and has never left me. How can she be scared if she is alone? What if she meets a bad guy?

System: Instead of worrying about her, you should worry about yourself. The Cangwu Sect was later wiped out.

Jimo Yanzhou: From what you said, you are now in Feng Tinghai's inner demon? What is Feng Tinghai's inner demon?

The system seemed to be thinking: Are you saying that the person standing on the ring just now was the Feng Tinghai we know?

Jimo Yanzhou: I don’t care who he is. The most important thing now is to find my Yun’er. She is young and still a child.

Seeing that he was already heading down the mountain, the system wanted to remind Jimo Yanzhou, but heard an arrogant male voice.

"So what if he is the eldest brother of Cangwu Sect? Even if he has won more than ten games, when I go on stage, I will definitely knock him off the stage."

"Brother Liaoxian is right. I think Feng Tinghai is only in the early stage of Tengyun Realm, while Brother Liaoxian is in the late stage of Tengyun Realm." A flattering male voice said.

"Senior Brother Jinyu is right. Feng Tinghai just didn't meet Senior Brother Xian." Another flattering voice echoed.

Jimo Yanzhou saw a group of people walking out from the corner. The leader was dressed in black and had a handsome appearance. The expression on his face was as arrogant as the tone of his voice.

The system roared: You’re so so so so…Grandpa, here he comes.

Jimo Yanzhou touched his face and said to the system: Fortunately, I am not as worthy of a beating as he is! He looks so worthy of a beating, let alone Feng Tinghai, I also want to beat him up.

System: You are so filial to me.

Jimo Liaoxian glanced at the two fellow apprentices beside him and said, "Isn't that little girl awake yet?"

Jinyu said: "Not yet."

Jimo Lexian said, "I see that her clothes are gorgeous and exquisite, and the jade on her body is extremely precious. She must be the eldest daughter of a noble family. We rescued her from the clutches of the Hehuan Sect, and when she wakes up, we will ask her which family she is from."

Jin Yu's tone was somewhat evil as she said, "Senior Brother Liaoxian saved the girl. When she wakes up, she will definitely repay you for saving her life. Hehe... then she will repay you with her body..."

Jimo Lexian glanced at him with a look of superiority, but did not refute what Jinyu said.

"There's nothing we can do. Senior Brother Lexian is just very charming. All the female cultivators in the Great Wilderness dream of becoming Senior Brother Lexian's immortal partner. I think that little girl will shamelessly follow Senior Brother Lexian when she wakes up." Jin You on the side said with a smile.
