Summary

The world is like a chessboard.

“I do not want to be treated as a chess piece by the players!”

Defeat in this chess is tantamount to the destruction of my body and I’ll thoroughly disappear! Victory in this chess and I’ll have a very long life!

With the help of an ancient Weiqi piece, Gu Hai arrived at the Divine Province Mainland!

Heavenly Dao is eternal, however life is limited, making heaven and earth pieces of a chessboard, then in the end transformed into a loess, vanishing like faded smoke and scattered clouds. Nevertheless people still jump out of the chessboard, and these people are already prepared for their death while playing chess against the heavens, and perhaps win eternal life for themselves?

“I’ve come, and I want to live through 10,000 lives without any boundaries!”

    The beginning of this novel is really good, it's very unique, but it eventually goes down to a very generic xianxia, which is a major letdown and I have no idea why the author did what he did. Up until chapter 200 or so, the author makes the MC look smart, cunning, decisive, wise, etc — which isn't necessarily great, but it fits very well with the world building and writing that was going on until those chapters.. But then after that he simply turns into your generic naive young MC who's righteous and follows some cr*ppy "principles" blindly which is what usually makes him go against enemies, where those conflicts could easily be solved with one or two words. He makes stupid choices all the time for basically no reason whatsoever and it gets very irritating quite fast because things snowball just like that. World building is a bad copy of BTTH and Stellar Transformation — external cultivation, snake girl empress, islands thing etc.. Almost everything is recycled. Not recommended.

      Without spoilers? Excellent world and character building. Superb translation including explanations of idioms. Many cultural/historical (chinese) references. MC and underlying story that does not follow most of the tropes. Out of all the novels I have read I would say this is in the top 5%. And that includes every single one here if you search by rating or ranking. (Top 100 or 50 at the time of this comment.) That said. I am dropping this excellent series. i.e. I don't mind tragedy...but I prefer more of an upside in my reading. I may take it up again though, after I buy enough chocolate and ice cream for a mood boost.

    This has to be one of the most chinese novels in existence. Only thing more chinese I can think of is probably Mount Hua Sect. It barely has anything inspired by the western world. I personally found it quite funny.

      I'm sorry but what did you mean by that? Minimal Western (aka xuanhuan) influence? Period piece? Historical? Cultural /contextual humor? Extremely nationalistic?

        Maybe I should've worded it differently since multiple people seem to have misunderstood it 😭😭😭 I wasn't trying to sound detrimental or anything. I just found the fact that it reminded me of a lot of chinese novels and clichés quite amusing.

        You misunderstood me bro. The novel just has a lot of chinese clichés and almost no western influence at all. All the names also exude chinese literature, and everything in the novel just reminds me of other chinese novels I've read. I wasn't trying to be noxious or anything, just found it slightly amusing :)

        I also was not trying to be sarcastic bro, I literally don't understand what you were trying to say lol. Now I understand what you mean. Well this is written by a Chinese author and you know how are these authors. They rarely mention western culture and if they mention they only criticize it
