Chapter 1513: Spontaneous Death (I)
Outside the chessboard, the shadow’s eyes snapped to a new point of interest. A dao river had appeared!
It imitated the layout of the chessboard while utilizing a star of life and death as the primary star. The river was controlled by a cultivator of life and death!
Has he finally discovered it?
The shadow laughed. This, too, was normal. Li Hao wasn’t the first one to realize the true nature of the second trial. Yet, however far he could walk, however many arrangements he could make, and however much he could see was up to him.
Only when one took a step forward could one see what dao was present in the next square. Dao chess was the summation of the Skyward master’s lifetime accumulation of dao. Well, that was a bit of an exaggeration, but it was absolutely a manifestation of his comprehension of great dao. Dao chess itself was a fortuitous opportunity!
The second trial was a reward after candidates passed the first test. It was up to the individual whether or not they could take ahold of it!
As for the Exalted Drouth Emperor...
The shadow frowned slightly after taking a look at the man. This person wished to cultivate and strengthen the dao of darkness. There was an opportunity related to those goals found within dao chess as well. The man simply needed to consolidate all of the daos related to darkness and lay them out according to the chessboard. His opportunity would arrive then!
There would be no need to comprehend the dark envoy’s dao heritage. The dark envoy’s dao was his own.
Everyone’s dao was different. Passing one thousand squares and studying the dark envoy’s dao might not lead to a harvest greater than the one from dao chess. It might limit one instead.
After all, the dark envoy’s dao could not be copied wholesale. Its core nature must be understood instead.
Dao chess depicted organizing the ordered and unordered myriad of daos. Only the Skyward master could accomplish such a feat. Drouth was tossing away pure gold for a handful of mud!
