Chapter 556: Chapter 388 A Game of Chess_2

When Kui Feng was accepting his opportunity, the rest had also encountered their own fortunes.

Of course, there were exceptions.

For example, Li Zhu!

At this moment, Li Zhu was also situated within a space.

However, this space was filled not with the essence of the Way nor with Laws but with an aura interwoven with creation and destruction.

"Epoch Child of Origin Li Zhu has seen the Chaotic Martial Ancestor, kindly reveal your true form." Li Zhu greeted the phantom in front of her with a bow.

Behind her, the atmosphere of the Epoch’s Origin ebbed and flowed.

Clearly, it was not her who wished to see Sun Wukong, but the Epoch’s Origin itself!

However, Sun Wukong’s phantom just smiled and shook his head.

This annoyed Li Zhu.

In her view, an existence like the Epoch’s Origin, was peerless across all epochs.

Why did the Chaotic Martial Ancestor belittle the Epoch’s Origin so?

"Step back!"

At that moment, a female voice spoke.

The Epoch’s Origin descended.

However, the body that descended seemed extremely weak in this space, giving the illusion that it could be extinguished at any moment.

This scene slightly startled Li Zhu.

In the Epoch, the Epoch’s Origin should be the supreme existence.

Even the rules of the Epoch, within the chaos, could hardly suppress the Origin.

Moreover, as long as the Epoch’s Origin was in any part of the chaos, it could wield immense power.

But why was the Epoch’s Origin so feeble here?

"Ancestral Martial, during our first encounter, you are more mysterious and more potent than I imagined," murmured the Epoch’s Origin with a gentle laugh.

Li Zhu, sensing the situation, discreetly moved aside, seeing the Epoch’s Origin as more humble than she had imagined.

Sun Wukong’s phantom sat cross-legged, a chessboard appearing in front of him, then he gestured an invitation to play.

The incarnation of the Epoch’s Origin gladly sat down.

Without words, Sun Wukong took the black pieces, and the Epoch’s Origin took the white, and they began to play.

Li Zhu watched from the side, each move causing tremors in her Dao-heart.

Although her time of nurture was short, she was still a lifeform, and a being with an extremely broad perspective.

Even some secrets of the Supreme, she had already thoroughly understood.

But facing this chess game, her reaction was nothing but shock.

In her eyes, this was not merely a game of chess but a battle over the Dao.

It seemed slow, but hidden secrets lurked within.

It appeared calm, but undercurrents surged fiercely.

If she had not been isolated from it, perhaps the first glance at the chessboard would have shred her existence into pieces.

Li Zhu did not doubt that if this chess game were known outside, it would certainly arouse the frenzy of the Supreme!

It was uncertain how long had passed when a black piece descended, causing the entire chessboard to ripple with patterns of the Dao. At that moment, all the white pieces also completely lost their fighting spirits.

"I have lost!"

When that voice echoed, Li Zhu, who had been immersed in the fierce chess struggles, suddenly snapped back to reality.

The manifestations and conflicts of the Great Path before her eyes had vanished, as if the intensity had never occurred.

Then, a sense of shock emerged in her heart.

What did the Origin say?

She... lost!?

At that moment, Li Zhu found it hard to conceive.

"Ever since my birth, I have been the Origin of Chaos, holding dominion over all the laws of chaos, even guiding the trajectory of chaos’s development.

I used to believe that in the aspect of laws and the Great Path, there was no one in the entire Epoch who could rival me, now..."

In this regard, the Epoch’s Origin neither lied nor exaggerated.

Her strength lay not in martial confrontation but in her understanding of laws and the Great Path.

Especially since she had experienced two epochs of the Myriad Realms, she had nearly seen through the essence of laws and the Great Path.

If there were qualifications for promotion, perhaps she would be the first to clarify the direction of the Great Path!

Even the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning might not surpass her in understanding the Dao.

But now, she had lost, lost thoroughly, convinced both in heart and in speech.

"Chaotic Martial Ancestor, I have a question to ask," the Epoch’s Origin spoke again, "Looking across all epochs, no one rivals you, what then do you seek!?"

Li Zhu was again struck with astonishment.

Though the sentence was brief, the amount of information it revealed stirred manifold thought.

Looking across all epochs, no one rivals you!

What does that imply?

The Chaotic Martial Ancestor, invincible!

"I am here for an item," Sun Wukong said with a smile.

"What item? In Chaos, what is there that the Chaotic Martial Ancestor would yearn for?" the Epoch’s Origin asked again.

This time, however, Sun Wukong did not reply.

More words could lead to losses, speaking too much would rob him of his original purpose.

The Epoch’s Origin was an entity of the highest order within the Epoch, and her realm was extremely elevated.

Had it not been for his preparedness, he would have lost in the challenge of the Great Path chessboard.

Seeing that Sun Wukong did not respond, the Epoch’s Origin did not pursue further questions.

For she knew that for an existence like the Chaotic Martial Ancestor, if he chose not to speak, no one could extract an answer from his lips.

Then, the Epoch’s Origin could not help but ask, "Chaotic Martial Ancestor... from whence do you come?"

In everyone’s perception, the Epoch and the chaos beyond the Epoch were everything.

But that chaos was too vast, with Dark Distortion surveying it, even the Supreme could not traverse the darkness to explore how vast the chaos was.

Moreover, the territories of the Epoch were vast enough, and few deliberately sought to explore the external world.

To say the Epoch’s Origin was curious about Sun Wukong’s arrival would be less accurate than saying she wanted to know what lay beyond.
