Chapter 161: Sect Master of the Dao Constellation Palace

As the most talented disciple and Eldest Senior Brother of the Dao Constellation Palace, Jianglu had a very high prestige in the Dao Constellation Palace.

Jianglu did not delay and quickly rushed into the main hall.

On the main seat of the main hall, a gray-robed Daoist was pointing at the void. He was playing chess with himself and was comprehending the incomparably exquisite chess path.

On top of the gray-robed Daoists head, there was a plaque.

Heaven and earth are the chessboards, and the common people are the chess pieces.

When Jianglu saw this familiar phrase, he was filled with emotion.

The common people are the chess pieces.

Jianglu muttered a few words and smiled bitterly. That Senior is really using the common people as chess pieces.

After saying this, Jianglu strode towards the gray-robed Daoist.

Disciple Jianglu greets the sect leader.

The gray-robed Daoist saw Jianglu and smiled:

Why did you come back this time? Arent you going out to comprehend the game of chess? I thought that with your playful and casual personality, you would still need a few more years to return.

Jianglus face was slightly red as he replied respectfully, Disciple has something very important to report and had no choice but to come back early.

When the gray-robed Daoist heard Jianglus words, he could not help but become curious.

What important thing made you so nervous? Ive told you many times that being impatient in a situation is not good for your chess cultivation.

Jianglu did not explain. He understood that the matter of that peerless expert was too shocking for the people of the Central Plains. He reckoned that even if he said it, the Sect Master would not believe it.

Jianglu quickly took out the calligraphy that Liu Changgong had given him.

The gray-robed Daoist took the calligraphy piece from Jianglus hand, and his face darkened.

It was just an ordinary calligraphy piece, and there wasnt even a trace of spiritual energy fluctuation.

The gray-robed Daoist looked at Jianglu in confusion.

Seeing this, Jianglu hurriedly explained, Sect Master, youll know when you open this calligraphy piece.

The gray-robed Daoist felt that although Jianglu was quite playful, he was still quite reliable in doing things.

Therefore, he did not doubt Jianglus words and unfolded the calligraphy.

The moment the gray-robed Daoist saw the calligraphy, his expression changed drastically, and the chess piece in his hand dropped to the ground.

The gray-robed Daoist only saw countless unfathomable Dao charms surging toward him.

He put down the calligraphy several hours later.

However, the gray-robed Daoist did not stop.

When he put down the calligraphy piece, his aura surged like a river, forcing Jianglu to retreat.

Then, countless illusory chessboards appeared on the gray-robed Daoists body.

As the light flowed, chains of order extended outward.

After a long time, the hall finally calmed down.

Congratulations to the Sect Master for advancing in the Way of Chess!

The gray-robed Daoists face was much younger, and the white hair on his sideburns had also turned black.

The Sect Master of the Dao Constellation Palace opened his eyes and said anxiously, Jianglu, tell me quickly, where did this painting come from? Tell me in detail, dont miss a single detail.

Jianglu immediately told him everything he had heard in the Southern Region and everything he had heard in the Immortals Destiny Small Shop.

The Sect Master of the Dao Constellation Palace exclaimed, No wonder that Senior has the Sun and Moon Chessboard. It turns out that he is a peerless expert.

Jianglu asked, Sect Master? Sect Master, the Sun and Moon Chessboard that I mentioned, is it the chessboard that the patriarch met in his dream?

The Dao Constellation Palaces sect master was silent.

After a while, he replied, Yes.

Im not sure either. I need to ask the patriarch about this matter before I make a decision.

Jianglu said in astonishment, Sect Master?

Sect Master, you can actually communicate with the patriarch of the upper realm!

The Sect Master of the Dao Constellation Palace smiled.

Dont be surprised. The Dao Constellation Palace has the sound transmission array left behind by Ancestral Master Carefree. Of course, it can. Not only the Dao Constellation Palace, but all the major sects and Holy Lands in the Central Plains have similar methods. This was because the Immortals of the upper realm would also rely on the disciples and grand-disciples of the lower realm to gather information for them. Because there were often Immortals like the peerless expert you mentioned who went down to the lower realm. When such a thing happens, no matter how much resources are expended, the patriarch must know about it. Moreover, the Divination Chessboard was destroyed last time, and the patriarch wasnt informed.

Jianglu nodded.

The Dao Constellation Palaces Sect Master immediately stood up, picked up the calligraphy on the table, and said to Jianglu, Im going to see the Patriarch. Ill be back in a moment. Dont move around here. Wait for me to come back.

As you command.

The figure of the Dao Constellation Palaces Sect Master instantly disappeared without a trace.

Jianglu was so shocked that he began to doubt his own life once again.

There are actually so many profound Daoist techniques.

Jianglu looked into the hall, but the feeling he felt was different.

In the past, every time he entered the hall, he would feel a solemn pressure.

This time, after going to Senior Lius small courtyard, returning to the Dao Constellation Palaces main hall, he felt a different feeling.

Although there was still pressure in the main hall, the pressure wasnt as great as before.

It was difficult to find water in the vast ocean.

Jianglu was someone who had seen great scenes before.

Jianglu didnt know how long he had waited. Suddenly, a figure flashed before his eyes. The Dao Constellation Palaces Sect Master had already returned to the main hall.

This time, the Dao Constellation Palaces Sect Masters face was even more interesting than before.

Shock, awe, disbelief

All kinds of emotions appeared on his face.

Jianglu was very curious. He hurriedly asked, Sect Master, is the chessboard I saw the real Sun and Moon Chessboard?

The Dao Constellation Palaces Sect Master nodded.

Yes.

That chessboard is the one that enlightened the Ancestral Master in his dream. Moreover, it is ranked first among all the immortal tool chessboards in the Immortal World! If the Sun and Moon Chessboard were to be released with all its aura, even the Immortal Emperors in the Immortal World wouldnt be able to compete with it.

Upon hearing the words of the Dao Constellation Palaces Sect Master, Jianglu was extremely astonished.

He didnt understand what immortal artifact ranking was.

However, Jianglu understood that the chessboard he saw in Senior Lius small courtyard was indeed the Sun and Moon Chessboard.

As for Senior Lius identity, it was extremely mysterious.

At the very least, even their Dao Constellation Palaces Ancestral Master, Patriarch Carefree, couldnt compare to him.

Jianglu asked again,

Sect Master, did Patriarch say how to deal with that Senior?

The Dao Constellation Palaces Sect Masters expression was complicated, as if he didnt believe it:

Patriarch Carefree said that he wants you to immediately return to that Seniors small courtyard and serve him on his behalf. As long as that Senior is happy, he can give him another pseudo-immortal tool chessboard in the Dao Constellation Palace and smash it.

What? Jianglu cried out in shock. He was completely stunned on the spot and was at a loss.

Why arent you leaving yet? Jianglu, this time, you arent as smart as your good friend. He was a sword cultivator for one term, but he knew how to stay there and obtain the recognition of that peerless expert. Yet, you came back to deal with such trivial matters. Its your cleverness that has been misled.

When Jianglu heard the Sect Masters words, he felt as if he had just woken up from a dream and came to a sudden realization.

Indeed, he had already planned to betray the Dao Constellation Palace and stay by Seniors side. How could he have forgotten?

It wasnt until Jianglu took the calligraphy piece from the Sect Masters hand that he understood.

So it was because I was too excited to receive this calligraphy piece that I forgot.

Jianglu was extremely frightened.

Was this also Senior Lius plan?

Jianglu felt like he was being toyed with.
