I Turn Out To Be A Grand Master Chapter 155 - The Dao Rhythm of the Immortal's Destiny Small Shop

Chapter 155: The Dao Rhythm of the Immortal’s Destiny Small Shop

Ever since Jianglu started cultivating, he had stayed in the Dao Constellation Palace day and night to study chess. It was the only time he had gone out, so there was no danger.

It had been a long time since he had experienced the terror of being a mortal.

As a cultivator, his body was pure and flawless. Normally, he would not sweat unless he was extremely nervous.

Even if he was sweating because of nervousness, he could still use spiritual energy to evaporate the sweat.

When Jianglu was in the tavern, he was so nervous that he was not moved to use spiritual energy to ease his discomfort.

Jianglu sighed and said, “This is really worrying for Hongzhi. Forget it. It’s better not to tell him about the Immortals here, lest he brings trouble again.”

After Jianglu left, the shopkeeper was so moved that tears flowed down.

“I didn’t think that the refined young man next to the swordsman was a good person, just like Mr. Liu who gave away his calligraphy for free. Sigh, I’m afraid I won’t be able to earn so much money in my lifetime. I’m really ashamed of myself. I’ll take a portion of it to help those poor people some other day…”

Jianglu didn’t dare to use his spiritual power in the market. He walked out of the market hand, then rode his escape light and chased after Lou Hongzhi’s aura.

Soon, he found Lou Hongzhi. Lou Hongzhi was standing in a vacant s.p.a.ce outside a small courtyard, as if he was hesitating about something.

“Brother Lou, I finally found you.”

Lou Hongzhi saw Jianglu and complained:

“Why did you talk to that shopkeeper for so long? I thought something happened to you.”

Jianglu explained, “You are still talking about me? You forgot that this is a market for mortals. What is the use of giving spiritual stones to others? That shopkeeper doesn’t know that thing. If I hadn’t paid for your food and drinks, and even apologized, we would have become freeloaders. Think about it. If your misdeeds were to reach the ears of that peerless expert, would he still pa.s.s on your good fortune?”

Lou Hongzhi took the spirit stones from Jianglu’s hand and said shamefully, “This matter is my thoughtlessness. When I return to Zhongzhou in the future, I will definitely treat Brother Jiang well.”

Jianglu smiled slyly. “That’s more like it. Brother Lou, you must remember that the mortals around you are all neighbors of that expert. If you want to deal with them, you must not provoke them.”

“Got it,” Lou Hongzhi replied.

After telling him what he should pay attention to, Jianglu started to observe his surroundings.

“Immortal’s Destiny Small Shop.”

Seeing these four words, Jianglu was shocked. Wasn’t this the residence of a Senior who had the Divination Chessboard?

How did Lou Hongzhi come here? That Senior was also an existence that could not be provoked.

Lou Hongzhi touched the words on the small signboard, and the light in his eyes became even more scorching.

He said with incomparable certainty:

“It’s here!”

Jianglu said with puzzlement, “Brother Lou, what did you say is here?”

Lou Hongzhi said, “The Sword Intent in the words on the signboard of this small shop is even more profound than the previous ones in the market city. There is no sword edge, no Dao rhythm, but I can see that if someone commits a crime here, they will be punished by the Sword Intent in it.”

“That peerless expert is here! Jianglu, quick, go in with me. Help me if necessary.”

After saying this, Lou Hongzhi took a step forward, wanting to break into the Immortal’s Destiny Small Shop.

Jianglu saw Lou Hongzhi being so abrupt and pulled Lou Hongzhi back.

“Brother Lou, did you forget what I just said? You can’t be so rash. If you rush in like this, you will definitely offend that peerless expert. Think about what to do first.”

“Give me some time first. My mind is a bit muddled.”

Jianglu’s heart was in a mess.

Lou Hongzhi’s words reminded him.

That peerless expert and the owner of the Sun and Moon Chessboard he had seen before were really the same person.

Jianglu was trying his best to recall everything that had happened when he had met Liu Changgong.

The terrifying Dao rhythm of the inner hall, the Divination Chessboard that had been shattered by the Sun and Moon Chessboard, the old peach tree that had become a spirit in the courtyard, the Green Hill demon fox under the tree, the parasol tree branch on the peach tree, and the phoenix on the tree…

That’s right, the phoenix!

The Young Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had mentioned before that the Young Master of the Li family had been removed from the Li family by Sacred Lord Brahma.

Later on, Jianglu had heard from some sources along the way that the phoenix had descended upon the Li family before the Li family was removed from the Li family by Sacred Lord Brahma.

And that phoenix had been summoned here by a peerless expert.

There was also a phoenix in this small courtyard.

Could it be the same phoenix?

The phoenix descended upon the Grand Moon Sect…

When he thought of this, Jianglu’s body trembled. That peerless expert was that Senior Liu!

The evidence was conclusive!

Jianglu no longer had any doubts.

Since Senior Liu was a peerless expert, it was not strange that he possessed the celestial item, the Sun and Moon Chessboard.

The Dao Constellation Palace’s founder, the Carefree Grand Sage, was inspired by the Sun and Moon Chessboard to embark on the path of immortal cultivation.

With the help of the system, Senior Liu was the true ancestral master of the Dao Constellation Palace, even though Senior Liu might not recognize him as his disciple.

It was no wonder that the calligraphy he had seen before also contained the supreme way of chess.

This time, Jianglu’s thoughts were all smooth, as if he had solved a peerless chess game.

Jianglu took a careful look at the signboard of the Immortal’s Destiny shop.

It was fine if he didn’t look.

When he looked at it, Jianglu felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was shocked on the spot.

It was an even more profound chess path.

The moment he saw the signboard, Jianglu’s mind was drawn to a huge virtual chessboard.

There, he saw a chess grandmaster playing chess with another chess grandmaster.

The game had reached a white-hot stage, and each move could set off a terrifying momentum on the chessboard.

Jianglu only saw the two masters play a few pieces each, and his mind could not withstand the pressure on the chessboard. He was forcibly expelled and returned to his own body.

When he came back to his senses, Jianglu’s clothes, which had been dried by the spiritual energy, were soaked again.

Moreover, this time, not only was he extremely frightened, but all the spiritual energy in his body seemed to have been devoured by the chessboard, disappearing without a trace.

Jianglu lost his strength and fell directly to the ground.

Lou Hongzhi had long noticed that Jianglu stood rooted to the ground. From time to time, a pained expression would appear on Jianglu’s face. However, he knew clearly that Jianglu had also entered a state of epiphany like him.

Therefore, when Lou Hongzhi saw Jianglu fall, he quickly used his Spiritual Qi and Sword Qi to support Jianglu’s body, waiting for Jianglu to recover on his own.

At this moment, Jianglu didn’t dare to look at the shop’s board anymore, afraid that he would fall into that life-and-death chess game again.

Last time, he might have escaped by luck, but if he did it again, Jianglu thought that he might directly die on the spot, or become a walking corpse without consciousness.

However, in that short moment, Jianglu felt that his chess skills had improved a lot.

He did not have time to consider his situation. He immediately closed his eyes and recalled the chess game just now, then started to deduce that chess game.

Jianglu did not know that while he was deducing the chess game, many Dao rhythms gushed out from the four words on the signboard of the Immortal’s Destiny shop.

That Dao rhythm seemed to have found a spillway as it surged towards Jianglu’s body, forming a long river of Dao rhythm between the signboard of the Immortal’s Destiny store and Jianglu’s body.
