Chapter 188 - 187: Great Desire Technique (Third Update, Please Subscribe)
Swinging the black and white chess pieces, the old man’s expression was calm and elegant.
The world is the chessboard, all living beings are the pieces, who hasn’t been weak, who isn’t a piece? To become a player, one must first be a piece. When cultivators compete, by the time divine techniques are unleashed, they’re already at a disadvantage; the real battle lies in the dark, calculating with cause and effect, plotting across the world, and that is superior!
When fate arrives, so does fortune, and so do miraculous encounters.
As cultivators wander the world, the moment they obtain a chance encounter, they become pieces in the calculations of the strong.
Becoming a piece is a good thing, it means the opportunity to change destiny.
Many people have poor comprehension, poor aptitude, and don’t even qualify to be pieces.
"Master, if you hadn’t interfered, what would have happened to him?" Si Cang curiously asked.
The old man smiled and said, "Originally, his destiny was insufficient, at most he would reach the Golden Core Ninth Transformation, Divinity Transformation would be his peak. But I manipulated his tribulation, plotted the world, and elevated his destiny, enabling him to cast an Eleventh Transformation Infinite Golden Core, and reach the peak of Harmonization."
"However, reaching the peak of Harmonization is his limit. Once he crosses the Ninefold Immortal Tribulation, he is certain to die. Fishing is fine, but when a fish escapes, it’s not good. Raising pigs is fine, but don’t let them grow into tigers. When the fortune arrives, he can soar to the sky; when the fortune leaves, it will be the moment of his demise."
