Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer?

Chapter 704: 328
 

Rather, tinkering with the chessboard at will could accelerate his own death, so why was Fang Mu so unconcerned and calm in the face of death!?

After answering Shu Liangjun’s question, Fang Mu moved his fingers repeatedly across the chessboard.

Shu Liangjun and Shui Miaoqinshao wants to stop him but didn’t know how to say it since none of them have a method to break the curse.

Every move made by Fang Mu was equivalent to him personally bring an end to his life.

But soon, their guilt and worry quickly turned into astonished joy.

Because they found out that the complicated chessboard became clear after only five moves by Fang Mu.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

By the ninth move, the red chess piece had already been moved to the designated area by Fang Mu.

Fang Mu’s poise appeared as if this board game was a simple child’s game.

Could it be that Fang Mu has seen this board game before and already knew how to solve it!?

The three of them felt that this possibility was small because the board game came from a large ancient battlefield.

It’s impossible for Fang Mu to have played this chessboard during the fifth and sixth epochs.

The moment the red chess piece entered the designated area, the black moon totem on Fang Mu’s face turned white.

The red chess piece trapped itself inside the chessboard, as if it had triggered a mechanism within the board.

The two corners of the board opened, and beneath the chessboard was an ancient copper key.

Next to the key was a hole, clearly the place to insert the key.

Fang Mu knew he had been rewarded for passing the test.

Fang Mu picked up the key and before inserting it, explained to the four people beside him.

“My deductive ability is very strong, my master values this aspect highly.”

“In my deduction, it isn’t difficult to solve the board game.”

“If I can’t solve something by myself, I’ll ask for your help directly!”

Fang Mu has always claimed to be a Grandmaster Disciple.

Previously, Fang Mu has never stated how he became a disciple of the Grandmaster Creator.

Now, Fang Mu felt it was necessary to label himself.

In this way, whether in front of the four people or returning to the Starwheel, Fang Mu’s status will be solidified!

Shu Miaoqinshao, Shu Liangjun, Qin Shao and Jin Ya looked at Fang Mu as if he was an Immortal.

Breaking the game in such a short time after just learning the rules.

This kind of deductive ability has already surpassed the realm of human capabilities, hasn’t it?

The emergence of many Master-level and Grandmaster-level elixirs is due to the Creator’s deduction of various formulas through the effects of spiritual materials, then verifying the effects of each formula.

The stronger a Creator’s deductive powers, the fewer detours they will have to take in the verification process.

It can also ensure the possibility of a successful deduction of elixir formulas.

This is a rare ability for high-level creators, which is difficult to cultivate later in life.

As a Forging Spirit Grandmaster, Shui Miaoqinshao had never thought of taking a disciple.

But if he were to meet a youngster with this kind of deductive potency, Shui Miaoqinshao might also be moved.

After explaining to the four of them, Fang Mu inserted the key into the hole.

Fang Mu had an idea, if the thing inside the hole is precious, Fang Mu would like to explore the other two heart-shaped markings on the ancient scrolls.

Fang Mu had a premonition that although these three heart-shaped markings might not be inside the ruins, their value could be more precious than the inheritance inside the ruins!

The moment the key entered the hole, the hole started to rotate counterclockwise on its own initiative.

A stone trough appeared on the stone platform, and inside was a crescent moon-shaped pendant.

Next to the crescent moon-shaped pendant was a brocade pouch, which Fang Mu proceeded to open.

There was a line of ancient text on the pouch.

The current language of the Dragon Rising Federation was transformed from the ancient language, using many of the same characters.

Moreover, Fang Mu had previously devoted effort to understanding ancient languages, so he easily recognized the content written in the ancient book.

[Nurture the Crescent Moon Pendant with your own energy. Should you find yourself in danger, breaking the pendant may just save your life!]

[The fusion of two Crescent Moon Pendants would result in a Half Moon Pendant, while the fusion of three would result in a Full Moon Pendant.]

The upper part of the inscription in the brocade pouch was embroidered with black silk threads, whereas the lower part was embroidered with moon-white silk threads.

It gave off a silvery glow, reminiscent of moonlight.

Fang Mu reached out to pick up the Crescent Moon Pendant. After a moment of thought, he threaded it with a string and hung it around his neck.

The best way to nurture the Crescent Moon Pendant with his own energy was to wear it as an ornament.

Fang Mu was not sure about the authenticity of the pouch’s inscription, but it was worth wearing the pendant like an amulet, just in case.

However, such a life-saving card had to be actively triggered rather than passively activated.

Only those acknowledged by the Crescent Moon Pendant and had their energy infused into the pendant could shatter it.

Otherwise, it would be exceedingly difficult for an external force to break the pendant.

In Fang Mu’s opinion, this kind of life-saving card that required human activation was not as advantageous as the exclusive feature of the Blood of Abundance: [Ash-Dyed End].

[Ash-Dyed End] was a passive trigger that might save one’s life when danger lurked and there was no time to actively use a life-saving talisman.

But a passive life-saving card could definitely activate when one’s life was threatened, thereby resisting danger!

At this point, the white crescent patterns on Fang Mu’s face had completely dissolved, allowing the energy within the white crescent to accept him as the owner of the Crescent Moon Pendant.

However, this particular energy within him did not disappear.

Fang Mu felt that if anyone were to kill him, they would probably be able to extract this special energy from his body.

At this thought, Fang Mu’s heart tightened.

The other two spots marked with heart shapes in the ancient book probably housed the remaining two Crescent Moon Pendants.

The brocade pouch’s moon-white silk threads explained that the Crescent Moon Pendants could merge with each other. Was this encouraging those who obtained the pendant to compete for the remaining two!?

Fang Mu was curious about the idea of merging the Crescent Moon Pendants into a Half Moon or Full Moon Pendant.

He had already collected all the Guardian Beasts related to spiritual energy in the ancient battlefield. His interest in the artifacts from the Epoch far less surpassed his interest in the two remaining Crescent Moon Pendants.

Fang Mu threaded a string through the Crescent Moon Pendant and hung it around his neck.

He put the brocade pouch into the Purple Ice Crystal Ring, then turned to Shui Miao and the others, saying,

“I wish to investigate the other two heart-marked locations in the ancient book.”

“There most likely will be tests at those locations. I have the desire to attempt these tests!”

“The Crescent Moon Pendant we just found is an intact relic from the five-sixth Epoch, so our master would surely be interested.”

“The other two locations have definitely already been discovered by now, so we will be taking on a risk by going there.”

“I’m willing to offer each of you an opportunity to extend your lifespan in exchange for shouldering this risk for me!”

“I know you all agreed to help me gather materials and gain experience in the ancient battlefield.”

“However, this is a different matter entirely. I’ll need your help for this!”

Fang Mu spoke with utmost sincerity. He didn’t take advantage of the guilt from the earlier failed test, and he didn’t force them into taking on avoidable risks.

Fang Mu’s words stirred Shu Liangjun, Shui Miao and Qin Shao’s emotions.

Even if Fang Mu did not offer any benefits or promises, they would not refuse to explore the other two heart-marked locations in the ancient book for him, and they would willingly take action on his behalf.

In this situation, Fang Mu’s promises both respected them and proved he was a considerate man!

Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun looked to Qin Shao.

Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun certainly sided with Fang Mu. Among everyone present, Qin Shao was the least familiar with Fang Mu.

At this time, Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun couldn’t make decisions for Qin Shao, nor did they feel it was appropriate to make the first move.

Seeing Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun’s gaze, Qin Shao rolled his eyes and then said loudly.

“I haven’t had a bout with anyone since entering the ancient battlefield. My hands have been itching for a fight!”

“If you want more Crescent Moon Pendants, Ah Mu, even if someone else takes them, we can help you get them back!”
