Chapter 516: Chapter 192: Struggle Against Fate, Health- Preserving Technique Makes Another Breakthrough (End of the month, asking for monthly votes!!)
Hidden in the clouds.
At this moment, two elders with the characteristics of immortals sit suspended in mid-air, looking at each other. A chessboard is placed between them with black and white pieces crisscrossing it in a mysterious arrangement.
When the Church of All Beings in Longevity Immortal City is completely destroyed, a black piece on the chess game dissipates. The two elders have little reaction to this. One of them simply places a white piece where the black one vanished.
“Another of the black pieces you control has vanished. This is the fifth piece in the last thirty thousand years that has been continuously eradicated. Your so- called plan of life or death does not seem to be succeeding. If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better for you to admit defeat and support my plan?”
The elder across from him, upon hearing this, smiles faintly and shakes his head, neither dismayed nor concerned.
The number of black pieces on the chessboard is significantly fewer than the white ones. From the conversation earlier, it’s clear that he’s at a disadvantage, yet he remains perfectly composed.
“Daoist friend, you jest. The chess game is far from over. Why are you so hasty to declare a conclusion? Is it because even though I’m in a disadvantageous situation, you still don’t feel confident in your victory, so you hope I’ll surrender willingly?”
“Ridiculous! After all these years, even though your situation is deteriorating, you still refuse to admit defeat. In all these years, when have you ever beaten me, Master Heavenly Luck?
Master Heavenly Fate, I’m advisingyou for your own good. Although my plan might not be flawless, there has been progress over the years. As of now, on the chessboard, the majority of the remaining pieces were placed by me.
On the other hand, you’ve spent all your energy, strategizing at every turn, even risking your own foundation to support your cause, but to what end?
I’m worried that you’re headed for a sorry end. The predecessors have proven that your path doesn’t work. Why insist on a dead end?
Let’s not talk about the distant past. Just after the last era’s catastrophe, had it not been for you stubbornly protecting your goal, you may not even have a chance to compete with me now.”
Master Heavenly Luck seems somewhat disappointed but Master Heavenly Fate remains impassive, “You don’t need to advise me. I have always believed in the Dao I protect. This is the ultimate path.
If we follow your way, we can at most cultivate a few strong characters like ourselves, which is futile in the path of immortality.”
“You…”
Unable to resist shaking his head, Master Heavenly Luck sighed in his heart. Indeed, he’s not very confident, even less so than Master Heavenly Fate.
Since the ancient catastrophe, there have been no more immortals in the world. Countless extraordinary talents and heaven-reaching abilities who could pluck stars and moons and suppress all beneath them, still could not find a path to immortality. They exhausted their lifespans and reluctantly fell.
