Building The Ultimate Fantasy - Chapter 471
Chapter 471: Chapter 471, returning to the mortal world in a hundred years
The great hidden in the city, the little hidden in the wild.
Lu fan restrained his cultivation and turned into an ordinary person. He used his hand to push the wheel of the wheelchair and entered Nanjiang City.
He walked slowly in the city and in the streets.
Compared to the Quiet Lake Heart Island, Nanjiang City, the largest city in the South Prefecture, had an incomparable smoke and fire.
Over the years, under the jurisdiction of the great mysterious divine dynasty, mortals and cultivators were almost completely separated. Although mortals knew that there were cultivators in this world, they rarely came into contact with them.
As a result, the lives of mortals were simple and plain.
Lu fan had originally planned to start from Nanjiang City and travel all over the five Phoenix land.
However, after entering Nanjiang city, he felt something and settled down in Nanjiang City. He spent the gold and silver of mortals to buy a shop.
This was a shop that had been sealed for a long time. The previous owner of the shop was an old man. He was a professional sculptor and there were many small objects piled up in the shop.
After Lu fan bought the shop from the merchant, he tidied it up a little and did not throw away the wooden sculptures.
He lived in South River City as a mortal and experienced the mortal world.
From the moment Lu fan appeared in the five phoenixes, his starting point was extremely high. He did not have any sense of the mortal world.
Now, he could calm his heart.
In the origin magnetic sky, the killing formation was still operating.
The heaven-destroying formation was a heaven-grade killing formation. Moreover, Lu fan used the thousand blade chair as the core of the formation, making the killing power of the killing formation even more terrifying.
Hence, when the killing formation was activated, the army of the upper realm that came this time would definitely be wiped out.
Lu Pan did not investigate.
In fact, the killing formation did not even disperse.
The Heaven’s Gate disappeared.
And in the region of the origin magnetic sky, the killing formation was still rolling, as if it had formed a forbidden area.
Occasionally, some origin magnetic sky cultivators would glance over and see the sea of blood rising and falling in the killing formation, and corpses rolling in the fresh blood.
These cultivators were so scared that they fled in panic.
Were there still living people in the killing formation?
No one knew because no one dared to enter and investigate.
Perhaps there was, but there was a greater possibility that there wasn’t.
The news that the upper realm’s punitive army was trapped in the killing array alarmed the lower three heavens.
Very soon, this news was sent back to the upper realm.
The Yun clan and the Dao clan were greatly shocked.
They sent experts to the lower realm specially to come outside the killing array.
The terrifying killing array was still emitting a terrifying aura, and there was intersecting killing intent within.
“This is a peerless killing array. It will take at least ten years for the killing intent to dissipate.”
The experts from the upper realm were solemn.
They guessed that there might be people alive within the array, but they did not dare to make a conclusion.
Very soon, the investigators sent by the upper realm returned and sent the news back to the two clans.
The experts from the Dao clan and the cloud clan were furious.
The experts from the cloud clan asked the sacred ancestor to move out, wanting to break the killing array.
Rumble!
The origin magnetic sky changed color, and a terrifying aura filled the sky.
A shadow that blotted out the Sun appeared. It was the sacred ancestor of the cloud race, and he appeared once again.
He used a great method, as if he was reversing the universe.
The sacred ancestor’s eyes flickered, and he saw many things. He saw the peerless killing formation operating, and the scene of the ferocious beasts on the heaven’s gate reviving.
Many cultivators from the upper realm died tragically, and blood flowed. The scene was cruel.
The sacred ancestor was unmoved.
His eyes flickered with a bright light, as if he had seen through the killing array and wanted to see through the Heaven Gate.
Rumble!
The sacred ancestor released his Qi.
The Heaven Gate, which could only be activated by ascenders, actually appeared in the killing array.
Creak Creak Creak..
The Heaven Gate seemed to have been pushed open by a huge force, revealing the world behind the gate.
The sacred ancestor’s bright eyes looked straight ahead, as if he wanted to see through the ascending ground behind the Heaven Gate.
The sacred ancestor saw a pitch-black mountain and a back-facing figure.
Suddenly, the sacred ancestor’s hair stood on end.
As the sacred ancestor of the cloud race, he had lived for a long time.
He had even seen the back of this emperor with his own eyes.
He still remembered those years. He was just a small fry in the cloud race, looking up at the back of the emperor..
The cloud race sacred ancestor retracted his gaze.
He did not dare to act rashly towards this killing array. This killing array was very likely related to the emperor.
The sacred ancestor retreated and returned to the upper realm.
The origin magnetic heaven that was shrouded in suppression also completely relaxed.
The cultivators of the upper realm were in an uproar. Even the sacred ancestor was not willing to break the array?
This killing array must have a great terror that even the sacred ancestor was afraid of..
Therefore, the killing array in the origin magnetic heaven remained, waiting for the killing array to dissipate automatically.
..
Five Phoenix Continent.
Lu Pan was initially worried that the upper realm saint clan would use their strength to break the formation, but he did not expect that the saint ancestor would be scared off.
He smiled and ignored the matters in the origin magnetic sky.
South River City was located in South County, and there was a lot of misty rain in Jiangnan.
After Lu Pan took over the shop, he did not open it immediately. He lived a leisurely life, and every day, he would be outside the shop, making tea and watching the changes on the Long Street.
At the beginning, Lu Fan’s temperament was very ethereal. Although he had restrained his aura and looked like a mortal, the aura of being in a high position for many years could not be removed.
The neighbors in the alley did not dare to get close to Lu fan. They only thought that Lu fan was a young master from some rich family.
Lu fan spent a few months like this. He found a merchant to buy a chessboard, set up a few tables, set up a chessboard, and tidied up the shop. After that, an ordinary chessboard hall opened for business.
The time of a mortal was like a bowl of spring water. It was plain and indifferent, but it also flowed with a sweetness that seeped into one’s heart.
There were very few people in Lu Fan’s chess hall. It could be said that almost no one came.
However, he was not in a hurry. Bit by bit, he restrained the Qi in his body and completely turned into a mortal.
Originally, the neighbors felt that Lu fan’s aura was somewhat high and mighty, like the son of some general in Jingdou or that noble prince.
However, as time passed, the neighbors realized that although this master Lu was a little cold, he was no different from them.
Occasionally, the neighbors would come to the door to chat and eat melon seeds.
Lu fan did not refuse, he smiled and got along with the neighbors.
Time passed by little by Little, Lu fan seemed to have forgotten his identity as a Qi practitioner, he gradually blended into the life of a mortal.
The business of the Chess Hall was very ordinary. Most of the time, it was the few stinky chess players in the neighborhood who were playing against each other. From time to time, they would fight with each other over a single move.
Lu fan, on the other hand, was leisurely enjoying the warm sun at the door and drinking hot tea.
Occasionally, the shopkeepers of the few shops in the alley would look for Lu fan to chat. Looking at Lu Fan’s deserted chess hall, they would teach him a few business moves.
After Lu fan heard this, he smiled and did not say anything.
After getting along with his neighbors for a long time, the children in the alley would often surround Lu fan.
Unknowingly, Lu Fan’s ethereal aura disappeared without a trace. He had completely turned into an ordinary person, allowing the children to dare to approach him.
The children were naturally curious and pestered Lu fan to teach them chess skills.
Lu fan did not refuse. He also enjoyed teaching the children chess.
Time flew by.
The children in the alleys had grown up and were busy making a living. They rarely came to find Lu fan to play chess.
Occasionally, there would be people who came, but they were also exhausted from the pressure of life.
They just came to find Lu fan to chat, but they did not play chess anymore. Playing chess… was something only a refined person could afford.
“I really envy uncle Lu. It has been more than ten years and there hasn’t been any change. I’m afraid that even when we get old, uncle Lu won’t get old.”
A grown-up child looked at Lu fan and smiled.
Although his words were unintentional, it made Lu fan slightly stunned and deep in thought.
This time, Lu fan began to control himself. He would grow old with the passage of time, no different from an ordinary mortal.
In the alley, there were children who had grown up, married, and had children. There were also old people who had reached the end of their life and died.
Lu fan sat in front of the Chess Hall and watched all of this. Birth, old age, illness, and death were like a cycle.
However, no matter what.
Lu Fan’s chess hall was still open as usual.
No matter the weather.
As the Chess Hall was open for a longer period of time, the number of customers that had accumulated increased.
South River City was the largest city in South Prefecture after all. Many scholars were quite knowledgeable about chess. Moreover, because the legendary master of White Jade Capital loved to play chess, the Great Xuan Dynasty’s chess playing style was quite strong, many national go players were born.
Occasionally, Lu Fan’s go hall would be full.
Lu fan usually drank tea and had a hobby. He watched the customers play go and listened to their small talk.
Of course, Lu fan would also play go with the customers.
However, up until now, Lu fan had never lost a game of go.
After this news was spread.
The reputation of Lu Fan’s go hall became more and more widespread.
The days of mortals were like water flowing in a hurry, never to return.
Late at night.
In the Go Hall, the faint candlelight was swaying.
Lu fan sat upright on the wooden wheelchair. He was now beginning to look old. There was a beard hanging down his chin, and there were wrinkles stacked on his face.
Opposite him, a young Go player was racking his brain to figure out the position of the next move.
There were a lot of people who loved chess around him. Everyone held their breath and watched silently.
“Sigh… I admire boss Lu’s chess skills.”
Finally, the young chess player smiled bitterly and put the chess piece back into the chess box.
Lu fan stroked his beard.
“We won by a narrow margin.”
“We’re done… It’s late. Everyone, go back quickly.”
Lu fan said.
After bidding farewell to Lu fan, the surrounding players discussed the game and left.
Lu fan held a candle and looked at the young chess player who was playing against him in surprise.
“What? You’re not leaving?”
“It’s late. If you want to play, come back tomorrow.”
Lu fan said.
However, what surprised Lu fan was that the young chess player was kneeling in front of him.
“Boss Lu, please accept me as your disciple! I’m willing to learn chess from you!”
The young chess player gritted his teeth and said.
Lu fan could not help but laugh. He stroked his beard and said, “My chess skills are difficult to master. It’s just the skills of a country bumpkin. What’s there to learn? If you want to learn, you should look for those national chess players who are skilled in chess.”
The young chess player shook his head, his eyes flashed with a sharp light. “Boss Lu’s chess skills are unfathomable. No matter how I place my stones, the spacing between boss Lu’s stones is exactly the same… in fact, since I’ve played against Boss Lu, Boss Lu has won every one of the eight games.”
“The gap between my chess skills and boss Lu’s is too big.”
Lu fan was slightly surprised. He did not expect this person to see through all of this.
“It’s just a coincidence.”
Lu fan waved his hand. Then, without a doubt, he let the young Go player leave.
The young Go player looked at the tightly shut door and gritted his teeth. He was unwilling.
He returned to the inn and replayed today’s game. He took out seven more pieces that recorded the game.
“I won’t make a mistake… this boss Lu must be one of the top national players!”
The next day, the young Go player left Nanjiang City and headed north to enter the imperial capital.
Although the atmosphere of Nanjiang City’s go skills was not bad, it was still slightly worse than the imperial capital.
The national players of the Great Xuan dynasty mostly gathered in the imperial capital.
The young Go player carefully carried these go records on his back, hoping to use them as a stepping stone to enter the national player’s tutelage.
Since boss Lu did not teach him, he could only find another way.
Time passed.
Speaking of which, this young chess player really made some achievements after entering the imperial capital. He used the eight games of chess that he played against Lu Pan. After being rejected several times, he became a disciple of a national player and learned chess skills.
The national player’s vision was naturally extraordinary. He could see the extraordinariness of this game.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
Compared to the past, South River City was suddenly much livelier.
One of the eight national players of the Great Xuan Divine Dynasty, the Lancang national player, had actually come to South River City. Countless chess players had come because of his fame.
He had even alarmed the city lord of South River City.
This Lancang national player first went to the Tang residence and paid a visit to a legendary figure. After Old Master Tang, under the gazes of everyone, he actually came to an alley and arrived in front of a dilapidated chess hall.
“This is the place?”
Lancang national player clasped his hands behind his back and asked the figure beside him.
The figure beside him was none other than the young chess player from back then. Now, he was much more composed.
His expression was complicated as he bowed and said, “Teacher, this is the place. The chess player from those eight chess games is living in seclusion here.”
“Although your chess skills back then were weak, you were already one of the best among the younger generation. To be able to beat you by a stone in every game, if not for a coincidence, this person’s chess skills would definitely be at the national player level.”
“I’m a little curious about the remaining seven national players.”
The Lancang national player laughed.
His eyes sparkled as he entered the Chess Hall.
An uproar instantly sounded in the Chess Hall. Many chess players stood up one after another. Lancang national player..
Who Didn’t know that.
Lu fan stroked his beard. The owner of the pork shop on the neighboring street who was playing chess with him suddenly stood up. His face was red and excited.
“It’s the Lancang national player!”
The young chess player came in front of Lu fan and bowed solemnly.
“Boss Lu, I’m back again.”
The chess player said.
Lu fan looked at the chess player indifferently. “What, you came back to ruin the game?”
“Please don’t be angry, sir. This game… I’ll finish it for this brother.”
The Lancang national player walked out.
His smile was like a spring breeze. He asked the pork shop owner a few questions, and the pork shop owner would not have any objections.
Lu fan raised his eyebrows. “Please.”
The eyes of the Lancang national player suddenly became sharp. He could feel the oppressive aura from Lu fan.
The young Go player pulled out a chair for the Lancang national player.
The latter’s eyes had already landed on the Go board. Then, he rolled up his sleeves and picked up the pieces.
PA!
The sound of the pieces landing on the board was like an explosion.
The surrounding people were attracted and gathered around.
Lu fan smiled and unhurriedly picked up the pieces and placed them down.
The two of them moved back and forth at an extremely fast speed.
However, what shocked the surrounding spectators was..
The Lancang national player was very fast. Beads of sweat actually appeared on his forehead.
The young chess player’s lips trembled slightly.
He looked at Lu Fan in disbelief. Who Was this boss Lu?
Even the national player couldn’t beat him?
“I lost.”
The Lancang national player’s eyes lit up. “Boss Lu, can we play one more game?”
He took over the pork shop owner’s chess game. That Sh * t-like opening contained some reason that caused him to lose.
Lu fan raised his head and looked at the sky.
“Okay, let’s play one more game.”
Lu fan said.
Soon, the chessboard was cleared.
Lancang national player and Lu fan were playing again. More and more chess players rushed over after hearing the news.
No one had expected that there would be such a powerful chess player in a small alley in South River City.
To be able to fight and even win against a national player, what kind of person was this!
When the sky was slightly dark.
The atmosphere in the Chess Hall was inexplicably strange.
Lu fan stood up, stroked his beard, and smiled.
“There’s no need to play anymore. Your chess skills are not bad, and there’s still a lot of room for improvement. Work Hard.”
After he finished speaking, he drove everyone out.
Everyone knew boss Lu’s bad temper. If he didn’t leave now, Boss Lu would spit out a fragrant breath.
Therefore, everyone left one after another.
The young Go player helped the dazed Lancang national player out of the go hall.
The Lancang national player, on the other hand, fell into a kind of bedevilment.
Vaguely, he seemed to have understood something.
At this point, the Lancang national player stayed in South River City.
And the go game between the Lancang national player and boss Lu quickly spread.
South River City, Tang residence.
Tang Xiansheng was lying on a rocking chair, looking at the chess book that the attendant handed him.
He was still rather curious about the chess book that was currently spreading like wildfire.
‘HMM?’?
He glanced at the chess book.
Tang Xiansheng’s aged appearance could no longer be put on.
He abruptly sat up straight from the chair.
“This chess game…”
Tang Xiansheng narrowed his eyes, and there was uncertainty in the depths of his eyes.
“Is that Chess Hall’s boss a young master? As elegant as jade, as elegant as a banished immortal?”
Tang Xiansheng asked.
The attendant was dumbfounded.
“Old Master, that Chess Hall’s boss is quite old… he’s not some elegant young master.”
Tang Xiansheng narrowed his eyes. Could it be that he had guessed wrongly.
In the following days.
South River City became more and more lively.
Lancang national player had lost. The news flew out of South River City as if it had grown wings.
When the other national players in the imperial capital heard this, they were rather surprised.
..
Qian ‘er palace.
A Go manual fluttered into the palace.
The palace master of Qian ‘er Palace, Empress Ni Chunqiu, loved to play go. This news was no secret since a long time ago.
This was because the go manual of the Lancang national player who had lost would naturally appear in front of her.
NI Chunqiu appeared a little lazy. After so many years, her go skills had also reached the level of a national player.
However, after looking at the go sheet, her red lips slightly opened, and her eyes instantly shone with a bright light!
Vaguely, there was a familiar aura coming from the go sheet!
That Aura that made her suffocate.
“Is it brother Lu?”
Ni chunqiu pursed her red lips and held the go sheet, her gaze stunned.
..
Time flew by in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten years had passed.
Lu fan was getting older and older. He did not use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to wash his body. Just like an ordinary mortal, his body began to wither under the power of time.
When one was old, one would think too much.
Lu fan would be in a daze from time to time. He would drink tea and sit on the thousand blades chair that had turned into an ordinary wooden wheelchair, looking at the clouds.
The Lancang national player came again. The old Lancang national player chose to live in Nanjiang City and often ran in Lu Fan’s chess hall.
The people around him were already used to it.
The situation of Lu fan and Lancang national player playing chess gradually did not spread out. The clamor in the world also gradually quieted down.
“Boss Lu’s chess skills are unfathomable. I admire you.”
The Lancang national player’s eyes flashed with respect. After putting the Chess Pieces into the box, he turned around and left.
Lu fan glanced at the Lancang national player’s back as he left and smiled.
He held the purple clay teapot and sipped his tea.
After the Lancang national player left, he quickly entered a small courtyard.
The courtyard was filled with peach trees. Although it was winter now, the peach flowers were blooming brilliantly.
The curtain fell and the gauze rolled.
A beautiful figure could be seen behind the curtain.
The melodious sound of the zither drifted.
“Mr. Lancang, how is boss Lu These Days?”
Lancang Guoshou’s eyes were filled with reverence as he glanced at the person behind the curtain.
He didn’t dare to have any impudence or blasphemy thoughts.
After all, the person behind the curtain… was an incomparably terrifying celestial being of the cultivation world!
A celestial being was also an immortal.
A celestial being could open the gates of heaven and ascend to the immortal world.
However, this celestial being had never ascended. This was the pinnacle of cultivation in the human world.
“Boss Lu’s body is not very good, but his chess skills have become even more profound.”
The Lancang national player said.
He was filled with emotions. Over the years, his chess skills had improved countless times. It was enough for him to suppress the other seven national players and become the champion.
However, the more skilled his chess skills were, the more he felt that boss Lu’s chess skills were unfathomable.
“Your body is not very good?”
A pleasant voice came from behind the curtain, and its tone was somewhat hurried.
Lancang Guoshou nodded.
Then, after the game was resumed, he left the chess book behind and left the small courtyard.
The curtain was lifted, and Ni Chunqiu revealed her face. She looked at the game and twirled a peach blossom.
“Although I don’t know what brother Lu is doing…”
“But, we must not disturb him.”
Ni chunqiu pursed her red lips and sat on the side of the chair, staring at the game. Peach blossom petals flew around, and she actually smiled.
On the other side, Tang Xiansheng was also looking at the go game, sighing with emotion.
“This person… is he really young master Lu?”
..
Spring passed and summer came.
Time flew by like a shuttle.
In the origin magnetic sky.
The terrifying killing array was still floating and sinking, and there was still boiling blood inside.
However, five years had passed since the appearance of the killing array. During these five years, the upper realm sent cultivators to observe.
The changes of the killing formation were all transmitted to the upper realm.
During these five years, the killing formation was showing signs of weakening.
In another five years, the residual power of the killing formation might disappear completely.
Five Phoenix continent, South River City.
Lu fan was getting older and older.
In the alley, many familiar old men had died and turned into a pile of yellow soil.
The children of the past had now turned into middle-aged men. They would come and Nag Lu fan from time to time.
Lu Fan’s chess hall was still open. However, the number of familiar faces had decreased by a lot.
Things had changed, but people had changed.
This caused Lu fan’s eyes to gradually become more lively.
He had once thought of leaving Nanjiang City and traveling through hundreds of cities of the Great Xuan Divine Empire.
However, he thought about it and gave up on this idea. After all, how many mortals could travel through hundreds of cities?
Most of them settled down in one place and experienced birth, old age, illness, and death. In the end, they turned into a pile of yellow soil.
Lu fan seemed to have realized something and began to set up the board.
His withered hand held the chess piece and placed it on the board.
The board was set very slowly. One piece might be placed every day, and some would only be placed once every ten days or half a month.
When the Lancang national player came to play chess and saw the ending, he felt shocked and coughed up blood.
What kind of chess game was this? Recalling the mysterious celestial being’s attention on Lu fan, the Lancang national player did not dare to speak.
Lu fan did not pay attention to the Lancang national player and continued to play the game as usual.
Now, this endgame had become a special feature of the Chess Hall. Many people studied it, but many people had no clue.
Ten years and ten years, it was a lot more.
Lu fan was getting older and older. He did not even have the strength to push his wheelchair.
He had been alone all his life. The children in the alley were now showing signs of aging. He planned to find someone to accompany Lu fan.
Lu fan could not help but laugh. He shook his head and refused.
There were fewer and fewer people in the Chess Hall. However, Lu Fan’s game was still not over.
Lancang Guoshou was not a simple mortal. He had cultivated before. Therefore, although he looked slightly older, he was still full of energy.
“Old Lu…”
Lancang national player looked at the old Lu fan who was on the verge of death. He was slightly stunned.
The Chess Hall was very quiet.
Lu fan did not pay attention to him. He stared at the chess game that had been played for decades.
He felt a little cold.
It was the cold of a lonely soul. It was like the darkness after dusk that swallowed him.
It was also like the sundial above his head that had reached its end.
Lu fan was as skinny as a stick. He raised his trembling hand and picked up the chess piece from the chess box. He was too old, and his movements became extremely slow.
“Mortals are born, old, sick, and dead, and newborns are born. This is life…”
“Isn’t it the same in the vast river of time?”
“Perhaps even someone as strong as the ancient emperor is like an ordinary mortal in front of the vast river of time. In the end, he can only look at the years…”
Lu fan said slowly.
An old voice drifted in the chess hall.
The Lancang national player only felt a wave of oppression. Although he was an ordinary mortal, it gave him an incomparable pressure.
Ding Ling Ling.
Lu fan seemed to have heard the sound of wind chimes.
He smiled.
He continued to pick up the stones.
Outside, it was snowing heavily, and the white snow was fluttering.
In the alley where the Chess Hall was located.
At some point, a graceful woman in a red dress holding an oil-paper umbrella appeared. A bell hung from her waist, and her red lips were like fire.
Tang Xiansheng also came. However, he stood outside the alley and leaned against the wall, deep in thought.
He looked at the flying snow in the sky.
Tang Xiansheng smiled. was young master Lu… experiencing the life of a mortal?
Faintly, he seemed to have realized something.
Gradually.
He felt the withered figure in the alley playing chess, and his aura was constantly weakening.
He felt like a lamp that had run out of oil.
Suddenly.
Empress ni Chunqiu and Tang Xiansheng’s pupils constricted.
They only felt that the world was silent.
Then… They discovered that the old aura in the chess hall had completely disappeared.
It was like a lamp that was gradually burning up.
It was unable to shine.
Pa..
It was the sound of a chess piece being placed on the chessboard with a weak hand.
Suddenly.
Ni Chunqiu and Tang Xiansheng felt that the world was spinning. Even the heaven tier ni Chunqiu felt weak and fell to the ground.
The chessboard in the Chess Hall instantly released countless resplendent lights. The Chess Pieces rushed into the clouds and turned into a world-shaking chessboard that covered thousands of miles in an instant.
Time… seemed to be flowing backwards!
A terrifying aura spread out, and the world seemed to be about to collapse in an instant.
He had returned.
The hundred years of returning to the mortal world had finally ended.
PS: 7,000 words large chapter. The second chapter arrived. This piece was written a little too long ago, so returning to the mortal world wasn’t divided into two chapters. When the first chapter ended, recommendation tickets and monthly votes were requested
