People are in Hogwarts, What the hell is the flood system?

Chapter 165: Enlightenment! Entering Taoism through Chess, Playing Chess in Darkness

At this moment, within the manor.

A three-foot killing sword light, like a true flying sword, spiraled and danced in Rhine's hand.

Rhine had been waiting for a long time, but still did not see any Dark Wizards dare to approach the manor.

A hint of joy appeared on his face.

The transformations of the Eight Nine Arcane Art are indeed profound and mysterious, far more useful than Transfiguration and Polyjuice Potion.

It seems that my goal has been achieved. I'm afraid that after I leave Hogwarts in the future, the Dark Wizards will think that the Ministry of Magic is conducting entrapment operations and will never dare to harass me again.

In this way, some troubles are finally avoided.

However, Rhine shook his head again and couldn't help but sigh.

"The Dark Wizards aren't coming, but my Killing Sword Light has just been completed, and it's incredibly sharp, but there's no one to test the sword on. It's really a bit of a pity."

After a moment, Rhine's heart grew stern, and he restrained the Killing Sword Light, exhaling lightly.

"Has my bloodthirstiness become a bit heavier than before?"

"Is it the influence of the Killing Sword Dao?"

Rhine pondered for a moment and then understood.

After all, the Killing Sword Dao is the most quintessential branch of the Great Dao of Slaughter. Those who practice the Killing Sword Dao will naturally be affected by it.

Although it won't lead to losing one's original intention, it's normal for bloodthirstiness to increase.

Especially since the power of Rhine's Killing Sword Dao is increasing too quickly. That sword light is incredibly sharp and filled with murderous intent, almost comparable to Rhine's strongest offensive means at the moment.

Even though Rhine has many talents for clear mind and seeing nature, it's unrealistic to think he wouldn't be affected.

However, there's nothing wrong with this. Just control the bloodthirsty impulse.

"Also, I can relax more on weekdays and cultivate my sentiments."

"It's not to suppress my inner self, but more like a nurturing process. The sword is hidden in its sheath, and once it's drawn, its sharpness will be even more formidable."

Immediately, Rhine's gaze fell on the Chess Mastery talent, and a strange color appeared in his eyes.

"I kept this talent for social reasons before. I didn't expect that besides helping Ron practice chess, it could actually come in handy."

"Although the Dao of Chess is a minor path, even those Great Luo Golden Immortals and even Quasi-Saints have the habit of playing a game when they have nothing to do, which shows that it must be beneficial to cultivation."

"It's just right to use the Dao of Chess to conceal the strong bloodthirstiness of my Killing Sword Dao."

Then, Rhine took out the Wizard Chessboard, and a light flashed in his eyes.

"Eight Nine Arcane Art, transform."

After a moment, two identical Rhines appeared on both sides of the chessboard.

Although their appearances and clothes were the same, their temperaments were completely different.

One was incredibly sharp, like a drawn divine sword.

The other was as deep as an abyss, like a sword sheath hiding a sword.

This was naturally not some external avatar or One Qi Transforming into Three Pure Ones great divine power, but just a temporary transformation method of the Eight Nine Arcane Art, to facilitate playing chess with himself.

With Rhine's mental strength, he could already multitask.

At this moment, he used his mind for two purposes, one focusing on attack, incredibly sharp, and the other focusing on defense, deep and vigorous.

Two completely different styles of chess were displayed by the two sides, truly meeting their match and fighting to a draw.

And between the interlaced offense and defense, Rhine's tension after the previous fierce battle with the evil creatures also relaxed, and he became more and more immersed in the chess game.

With one tight and one loose, the Insightful Heavenly Eye immediately captured a trace of inspiration.

Immediately, the entire chessboard seemed to be abstracted in front of Rhine.

Before his eyes, there were only black and white energies, Yin and Yang flowing, mutually generating and extinguishing, which was truly wonderful and the state of enlightenment that cultivators dreamed of!

Under this state, every move of Rhine's two clones seemed to come alive, exuding a soul-stirring power.

Rhine didn't know how long he had been playing this game of chess.

In his senses, it seemed like only a moment.

But the next moment, there was a cautious knock on the door.

"Rhine?"

"Are you busy? I mean, it's almost time to leave, shouldn't we go to the competition venue?"

Ron slowly pushed the door open after knocking.

What came into his eyes was Rhine's eyes recovering from a state of emptiness.

Ron said a little worriedly.

"Rhine, did I disturb you?"

Rhine shook his head.

Although being interrupted during a state of enlightenment is a big taboo for cultivators.

But Rhine took it lightly.

Firstly, Ron's actions were unintentional. Secondly, even if he continued to be enlightened, he would only be more proficient in the Dao of Chess.

Although the Dao of Chess is good, it is ultimately a minor path, and he only uses it to cultivate his sentiment and pass the time.

This time's enlightenment, the Dao of Chess has been entered, and even the Killing Sword Dao has become much more complete, which is already a pleasant surprise, so why force it?

"Let's go, Ron, today is your big day."

Ron nodded uneasily, a look of tension appeared on his face, but his eyes couldn't help but sweep over the Wizard Chessboard that Rhine had just played on.

Strangely enough, even though the chessboard was already in a mess, with only a few pieces left.

Ron seemed to be able to see the black and white light flowing, and there seemed to be some kind of soul-stirring power contained in this chess game.

Most ⊥ New ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ In ⊥ ⊥ ⊥ First ⊥ Hair!

Rhine looked at Ron, and his eyes showed even more surprise.

He had felt it when he was helping Ron practice chess before. Ron's talent in Wizard Chess was indeed extremely amazing.

Although it certainly couldn't be compared with Rhine's Chess Mastery talent, it was definitely top-notch among ordinary people.

Now it seems that the hard training during this period, coupled with Ron's own talent, seems to have the possibility of entering the Dao through chess?

His expression became a little strange.

"Wizard Chess is also chess, didn't I also have an enlightenment of the Dao of Chess on Wizard Chess? If Ron enters the Dao through Wizard Chess in the future, it doesn't seem impossible…"

Just at this moment, Ron's gaze seemed to be nailed to the chessboard. There seemed to be a huge vortex on it, gradually devouring his spirit.

Rhine waved his hand, and the chessboard was immediately disrupted. Only then did Ron move his gaze away in a cold sweat, his eyes full of horror.

"This… what is this?"

"I seem to have seen the birth and death of the universe, the rise and fall of all things in it. Is this still Wizard Chess?"

Rhine showed a smile.

"You'll know in the future, but for now, this chess game is still too far away for you and you can't look at it for too long."

"Let's go, Ron, your chess game is waiting for you at the competition venue."

… …

At the same time, the Wizard Chess venue, which should have been busy preparing for the competition, presented an eerie calm.

Quirrell, wearing a hood, stood in the venue, his eyes revealing a look of madness.

"Master, as expected of you, you even know how to make the Dark Wizard Chess, which has long disappeared in the history of the magical world."

"Killing lives, irrigating the chessboard with blood, and applying special magic, can create a Dark Chessboard."

"Anyone sitting opposite this chessboard will use their life as a bet to play the chess game. The winner lives, the loser dies."

"The conditions for winning the game are determined by the existence that created the Dark Chessboard."

A sinister smile appeared on Quirrell's lips.

"Doesn't Rhine value his friends very much? Isn't that Weasley child also eager to stand out?"

"I will let him reach the finals smoothly, and then start a dark duel on this chessboard. The condition for winning the duel is to continuously defeat ten Wizard Chess champions that I killed overnight and poured blood on the chessboard!"

"I admit that Rhine's magic is very strong, but the constraints of Dark Wizard Chess are definitely not something he can break in a short time. He only has two choices."

"Either watch Ron Weasley die in the dark duel, suffer a mental breakdown, and his belief collapse."

"Or foolishly join this dark duel, and then desperately lose to the Wizard Chess champion, sacrificing his own life in the dark duel."

"Either way, it will let me vent my anger."

"This time, Rhine will never be able to escape, unless this monster also has profound attainments in Wizard Chess, but is that possible?"

"It's difficult!"

"Among the ten Wizard Chess champions on the chessboard, there is the legendary eight-time champion, the number one in Wizard Chess!"

"That person is an eight-time champion, what champion are you, Rhine Snow? What do you rely on to win? Can you play a hand of God?"

Quirrell replayed all the details of the plan in his mind, and then showed unprecedented confidence in his eyes.

He snapped his fingers, and a waiter next to him walked over blankly.

"Champagne, fill it up!!!"
