This is a towering tree standing amidst the starry sea of blood.
As you fly closer, the entire view is occupied by the trunk of this gigantic tree.
Looking up, you can’t even see the top of the tree, only countless branches stretching out, adorned with bright red fruits.
These fruits emanate faint ghostly flames, and even from afar, one can feel the mysterious energy contained within.
But apart from that, the entire starry sky is silent.
No sound, no waves, not even the background radiation commonly present in the starry sky is found here.
It seems all sound has been absorbed by this towering tree before your eyes, a silence that is terrifying.
Covered in flames, Xue An hovers before the tree, and after sizing it up for a moment, suddenly raises an eyebrow.
"What? I’ve already arrived, and you still refuse to appear?"
As soon as the words fell, a rumbling sound suddenly came from inside the tree, followed by a large hole collapsing on the trunk.
The deep entrance seems like a beast that chooses whom it devours, exuding an ominous aura.
Xue An, however, just sneers coldly, "Playing tricks!"
With that said, Xue An takes a deep breath and then rises, directly flying into the hole.
This is a pure white space, devoid of earth, sun, moon, or any passage of time.
As far as the eye can see there’s only the void of pure white.
It’s like a dreamscape lost beyond time.
But as Xue An appears in this space, everything around him quickly begins to change.
The ground emerges beneath his feet, the sky appears overhead, and exotic flowers begin to bloom.
In an instant, it’s transformed into a picturesque garden with a gentle stream flowing through.
Xue An quietly watches it all, his gaze not on these changes but fixed on a distant pavilion.
Underneath the pavilion, there is a stone table, and a man sits with his back turned, seemingly studying something intently.
Xue An’s eyes gradually brighten.
At this moment, a calm and distant voice comes over.
"Red Lotus Immortal Venerable, I’ve been waiting for you here for quite some time!"
With that said, the person slowly turns around, revealing a face with a dull expression, the features even somewhat blurred.
Then he slightly smiles, "Interested in having a game?"
Xue An’s mouth gradually curls into a smile, "Alright!"
With that, Xue An flashes and in the next moment, arrives opposite the man and sits down.
Placed in front of them isn’t the popular multilayered board of the Multiverse, but the simplest flat chessboard known on Earth.
As Xue An sits down, the Abyssal Master doesn’t hesitate, immediately placing a piece.
Xue An holds the black pieces and unhesitatingly makes his move.
For a time, both sides place their moves rapidly, without any unnecessary conversation.
With their current Divine Sense, playing such a game is hardly a challenge.
Thus, they play faster and faster, until in the end, only the shadows of black and white pieces move like two giant dragons entwined on the chessboard!
After a moment, the chessboard suddenly stagnates.
Looking at the board now, there are very few black and white pieces left, the scores are equal, and it’s still a stalemate.
It unexpectedly turned into a rare draw.
The Abyssal Master keeps his head down, quietly contemplating, then after a long moment looks up at Xue An and smiles.
