Chapter 1686: Unexpected Chess Piece

Unexpected Chess Piece

Han Meng didn't expect to meet Hong Xiu and Lü Liangren here.

At this time, both Hong Xiu and Lü Liangren revealed unprecedented resolution in their eyes. Their gazes were fixed on Mt. Lingxu towering into the clouds, like two people seeking death in a desperate gamble.

They were originally also put into the Mustard Seed Space by the Lord of the Red Dust, and a second before the Lord of the Red Dust died in battle, she directly threw them out of the Mustard Seed Space... They would never forget the confusion and helplessness revealed in the Lord of the Red Dust's gaze when she looked at them at that instant.

At that moment, the Lord of the Red Dust herself didn't know whether she could kill the Lord of Spirit Void. She only knew that her death was already preordained, and before that, she absolutely had to let Hong Xiu and Lü Liangren survive.

If she failed, then these two Rank 8s might still be able to become humanity's last line of defense...

Both Hong Xiu and Lü Liangren understood that last gaze of the Lord of the Red Dust.

Therefore, they came.

Han Meng was just about to open his mouth to say something more...

A Path of the Actor reaching the heavens climbed frantically towards the sky. The winds and clouds outside the Spirit Void Domain seemed to be stirred by some kind of power, barbaric, tyrannical, and extremely aggressive!

Whether it was Han Meng, Hong Xiu, or Lü Liangren, all of them were stunned at this time... They blankly watched the direction of that Path of the Actor aura, confusion and shock flashing in their eyes.

"This is... the contemporary Pathway Chief of the Path of the Actor?"

"What a strong aura..."

"Who is he? Why have I never heard of him?"

"Does your Dusk Society have this person?" Han Meng asked Black Spades J.

Black Spades J shook his head without hesitation, "No... even the Four K-cards are not the Pathway Chief of the Theater Dao. This aura... we have never seen it before."

No one knew who the owner of this aura was, nor did anyone know where he came from. Ever since the Red King ascended to the heavens, the Path of the Actor seemed to have never stepped into humanity's field of vision again... to the point where people had even almost forgotten the existence of this divine path.

At this time, outside the Domain,

A short figure slowly placed the unconscious Little Junior Brother on his back onto the pitch-black earth.

Chen Ling was still unconscious, blood mist exploding on his body from time to time and then automatically repairing. In his slumber, his brows were tightly twisted together, as if he had very heavy matters on his mind.

That short figure gently stroked Chen Ling's cheek, and after softly babbling "yiya" a few times, cast his gaze towards the Spirit Void Domain not far away.

He stepped on Cloud Steps, his figure soaring into the sky bit by bit...

That comical face stained with White Ash was unprecedentedly calm, giving people a fragmented and mysterious feeling of madness. The aura of the Path of the Actor surged rampantly from his body, announcing his arrival to that Domain.

He was like a hidden chess piece of the Ancient Vault of the Drama Path concealed in the world, and only at this moment did he unexpectedly expose himself before the eyes of the world.

He was the last chess piece left behind before the Red King ascended to the heavens...

A chess piece that exceeded everyone's expectations.

The fifth disciple of the Ancient Vault of the Drama Path,

Contemporary Pathway Chief of the Path of the Actor,

Clown Peak, Clown.

...

Clatter——

In front of the Spirit Void Ancient Temple, the Lord of Spirit Void, who was resting his body with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. The Chessboard originally placed in front of him was disrupted by this out-of-control aura, black and white pieces scattering everywhere...

The originally relatively clear chess game, because of the appearance of this extra chess piece, once again became bewildering.

"Cough cough cough cough..."

The Lord of Spirit Void didn't even have time to look closely at that Chessboard, when in the next second, his whole person started coughing blood violently.

Embroidery Nails stirred inside his body, fundamentally unable to be forced out easily. Although the toxins and radiation in his body had been cleared out a bit, the time was still too short, and there were still quite a lot of deposits left...

The Lord of Spirit Void just sat like this on the ground with blurry vision for a long time before staggering to his feet. After his gaze swept over the messy Chessboard, his expression was extremely unsightly.

"An unexpected chess piece..."

"You have already ascended to the heavens, yet you can still scheme against me?"

The Lord of Spirit Void muttered to himself. The confusion in his eyes only hesitated for an instant before being replaced by calmness and resolution.

No matter what stage this chess game reached, he already had no path of retreat to speak of. Since an unexpected chess piece had popped out now, then just get rid of it.

However, as that short figure stepped across the nothingness and appeared above Mt. Lingxu, two more Pathway Chief auras erupted from halfway up the mountain!

Pathway Chief of the Path of the Soldier, Hong Xiu;

Pathway Chief of the Path of the Arts, Lü Liangren.

Three Rank 8 auras full of monstrous killing intent ascended to the peak of Mt. Lingxu at the same time. Even though there were no other human Demigods in this era, they represented the highest Combat Power below Demigods, representing the will of all humanity...

They appeared here with only one goal,

Exhaust everything, interfere with the Lord of Spirit Void, and ideally... kill the Lord of Spirit Void!

The empty left sleeve of the monk robe fluttered in the gale. The Lord of Spirit Void stood in place covered in blood, his gaze looking at these three people incomparably calm...

One variable, two constants.

Although the situation was more severe than expected, it wasn't unhandleable. He casually grabbed a few chess pieces from the Chessboard, and Universal Constants jumped frantically around him...

"Since you take the initiative to seek death... I will grant your wish."

As the Lord of Spirit Void's words fell,

Several terrifying chess piece shadows sufficient to blast Mt. Lingxu flat exploded in the firmament, directly submerging those three figures within!

...

Forbidden Sea.

Seawater mixed with icebergs roared and surged under the gloomy firmament. Countless massive black shadows surfaced on the sea surface, and one figure after another swept over them in the sky!

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

With an "Control" character written in vigorous and lively calligraphy stuck on his back, Seven of Hearts flailed his limbs wildly in the air, as if completely unfamiliar with floating flight. While screaming at the Calamities chasing from below, he desperately grabbed onto Nine of Spades beside him.

This Pu Family Young Master wearing Chinese-style clothing seemed truly speechless from being tortured by Seven of Hearts, glaring at him fiercely:

"What are you screaming for??"

"I... I'm afraid of falling down... there are so many Calamities below..."

"I stuck characters on each of you, you won't fall down for an hour."

"I know, but..."

"Stop yelling blindly!" Red Heart J directly drew his Curved Blade and pressed it against Seven of Hearts's neck, "If you keep chirping, find a place to take Poison and commit suicide later, don't affect our attack rhythm!"

Seven of Hearts knew how difficult this granddaddy was to provoke, and immediately swallowed his saliva silently, shutting his mouth.

"They're coming!"

Bai Ye, flying at the very front, narrowed his eyes.

He saw massive shadows blocking the sky and sun surfacing from the deep seawater. They crowded together, like an insurmountable wall of Calamity. In an instant, more than ten world-destroying Rank 8 auras surged over!

With so many people intruding into the Forbidden Sea, it was impossible for the Calamity of Taboo to be completely unaware. However, in its eyes, these humans had no threat at all, and it didn't even need to take action itself to completely exterminate them.
