269 Legend of the Original Land? Damn! I’m in the Trap?
“Old man, you said that you’re the Chess Saint? I want to know if Saint is an existence above Gods?”
Lin Bei looked at the smiling white-haired old man at the door and asked.
Ever since the Dao Comprehension System was activated, he had known of a “Saint” realm. However, this was the first time he had seen one for real.
However, even if he activated the Eye of Stars with all his might, he still could not detect any information about this self-proclaimed “Black and White Chess Saint”!
The old man smiled and said, “The cultivators in the world are divided into four levels: Mortal, Spirit, Divine, and Saint.”
“According to your theory, below the Extraordinary Realm is the Mortal Realm. The Spirit Realm is the Extraordinary and Legendary Realm that you know. Above that is the Divine Realm, and above the Divine Realm is the Saint Realm.”
“I’m not talented. I’ve been in the Saint Realm for ten thousand years.”
When Lin Bei heard this, he was shocked.
What?
Below the Extraordinary level, they were actually all at the Mortal level?
As for those above the Extraordinary level, including the Legendary level, they were only at the Spirit Stage?
After all this, I’ve worked so hard to increase my strength, but I’m only at the Mortal Stage now?
Damn, how sad.
“Hehe, little friend, you don’t have to belittle yourself. With your talent, your future achievements will definitely be extraordinary.”
As if seeing that Lin Bei had been dealt a blow, the Black and White Chess Saint smiled and said, “Come in and have a chat.”
Lin Bei took a deep breath and entered the small courtyard with everyone.
The courtyard was not big. There were two trees planted. One was a date tree, and the other seemed to be a date tree too.
In the corner, there was a pond with a group of koi fish.
Beside the pond was a pavilion. There was a chessboard in the pavilion, and spiritual energy surrounded the chessboard.
In the depths of the courtyard was a small house that looked very simple.
“Hong Yi, go get my tea and entertain the guests.”
“Alright!”
Hearing this, Hong Yi’s face lit up and she jogged away.
“By the way, um Senior Chess Saint, I want to know if there are any higher realms above the Saint Realm.”
Lin Bei could not help but ask curiously.
“Hehe, of course.”
When the Black and White Chess Saint heard this, he stroked his beard and said with a smile, “The path of cultivation is endless. Above the Saint Realm is the Original Realm.”
“The Original Realm? Is it related to the Original Land and Original Energy mentioned by Hong Yi? Why do I feel that the aura here is familiar?”
Lin Bei asked.
“That’s right. This place of mine was actually refined from a weakened Original Land.”
The Black and White Chess Saint smiled and said, “However, compared to the true Original Land, it’s still much inferior. As for why you’re familiar with the aura here it should be related to your identity. You’re a Descended One, right?”
“That’s right.”
“That’s right. The world that the Descended Ones are from is actually the Original Land.”
“That’s not right. I don’t feel an aura similar to this place.”
Lin Bei was puzzled.
“It’s very normal. The Original Land is just what that world used to be. As the spiritual energy decreases, the Original Land will also degenerate.”
The Black and White Chess Saint explained, “Therefore, the world you grew in should have exhausted its spiritual energy. However, since they chose your world as the place to descend, it means that the Original Spiritual Energy in your world is not completely exhausted. One day, it will be revived.”
“At that time, the spiritual energy will recover, and the Original Land will appear again. The era of great competition will descend.”
The Black and White Chess Saint’s expression was solemn as he said in a low voice, “To tell you the truth, I was once a living being of the Original Land. Unfortunately I couldn’t protect that world back then. In the end, I was displaced and relied on my last bit of strength to protect this world. However, even so, it took me a full era to recover.”
“Now, another era has arrived. According to their plan, another Original Land will be destroyed. I guess that the world you are in should be their next target.”
“Who are ‘they’?”
Lin Bei frowned and asked.
He was panicking now.
Initially, he was still thinking that he would have to face Legendary hunters after entering the Heavenly Hunting Ranking. Now, it seemed that the Legendary was just crap!
According to the Black and White Chess Saint, there seemed to be an unknown faction in the dark that could even beat up a Saint-level existence like the Black and White Chess Saint.
How strong must they be to do this?
Lin Bei felt a little frustrated.
“They claim to represent Heaven’s Will and come from Heaven’s Will City.”
The Black and White Chess Saint’s tone was solemn as he said in a deep voice, “The world outside is their doing. The Bright World, the Dark World, the Primordial World, and the Divine World, a total of four worlds. Coupled with the Endless Abyss, a total of five small worlds are actually the worlds they use to screen talents.”
“As for the selection criteria, it’s very simple.”
“If someone can step into the Divine Realm in the outside world and resist the Heavenly Tribulation to ensure that their intelligence is not destroyed, they will be chosen as a disciple of Heaven’s Will City.”
“As for those losers, hehe, they will be refined into Divine Puppets by ‘Them’ to be their spokespersons in that world and monitor the entire world.”
As the Black and White Chess Saint spoke, he looked at Lin Bei. “Do you understand what I’m saying?”
When Lin Bei heard this, he frowned and said solemnly, “But I heard that no one in this world has been able to break through to the Divine Realm for many years. Could there be a secret?”
...
“Naturally.”
The Black and White Chess Saint smiled and stroked his beard. He pointed at the chessboard in the pavilion and said indifferently, “I was once entrusted by someone to help him cut off the power of the Divine Realm for 10,000 years. The Blood Spirit River outside was extracted by me from the Blood Spirit Sea. Without this power, the passageway to the Divine Realm from the Primordial World will not be opened. In this way, naturally, no one can ‘ascend to the Divine Realm’.”
“For ten thousand years, I’ve played against the entire Divine Realm alone. I’m tired today. This chess game can’t last long. However, fortunately, you appeared in time!”
“Me? What can I do? Senior Chess Saint, stop joking. I’m just a mortal ant. What can a mortal like me do if even a Saint Stage expert like you can’t crack it?”
When Lin Bei heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand.
Damn, this is f*cking scamming me.
I can’t fall for it!
How could a mortal like me do something that a dignified Saint Realm expert can’t?
Impossible!
I can’t take this! I can’t take this!
“There’s no need to panic. This chess game of mine can still last for a while. This period of time is enough for you to grow.”
...
The Black and White Chess Saint smiled and said, “Moreover, I was only asked by someone to wait here for the person who could solve the problem to appear. And you are clearly that person.”
Lin Bei was even more dumbfounded when he heard this.
Stop fooling around!
The person who can solve the problem?
You’ve got the wrong person!
“Don’t be in a hurry to refuse. From the moment you stepped into this world, you had already fallen into the trap. What you can do now is to increase your strength as soon as possible and crack this trap.”
The Black and White Chess Saint said slowly, “You have absorbed the Original Spiritual Energy. When the Divine Realm opens, you will be noticed by the people of Heaven’s Will City. Do you understand?”
When Lin Bei heard this, his eyes widened and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Damn, that Original Spiritual Energy was not something I wanted to absorb!
It f*cking came over by itself!
It wasn’t my fault!
Lin Bei looked at the Black and White Chess Saint’s half-smile and knew that he had been unknowingly schemed against.
Damn, if I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have come!
In order to obtain a storage spatial talent, I actually jumped into a huge pit. What a huge loss!
“Don’t worry. Until the Divine Realm opens, I’ll help you.”
The Black and White Chess Saint patted Lin Bei’s shoulder and comforted him.
“”
Lin Bei:(._)
Ah! Thank you so much!
Lin Bei’s face darkened, and his heart was racing.
He was already in a difficult position.
“Master! The tea is here!”
At this moment, Hong Yi carried a small teapot and arrived in front of everyone with light footsteps. Then, she took out a few teacups and poured tea into them.
“Guests, have some tea.”
Lin Bei looked at the tea and was slightly stunned.
There was so much Original Spiritual Energy inside.
Gritting his teeth, Lin Bei picked up his teacup and downed it in one gulp. “Again!”
Since he had already been tricked, there was no point in dwelling on it. It was better to drink to his heart’s content and use this Original Spiritual Energy to strengthen himself and increase his chances of survival in the future.
“Hehe, drink as much as you can. This tea is enough.”
The Black and White Chess Saint looked at Lin Bei, who was gritting his teeth, and stroked his beard with a smile.
“You said it! Hong Yi, make me a hundred pots of tea first! I want to drink it!”
Lin Bei shouted, scaring Hong Yi silly.
How many?
100 pots?
At the side, the Black and White Chess Saint’s beard trembled violently.
Damn, this kid is ruthless.
My Original Tea is only made once every thousand years. After ten thousand years, my stock is only enough to brew 300 pots. Now, he actually asked for 100 pots?
He shouldn’t have said that.
