Mordecai snorted and pointed into the void. With a flash of light, an enormous chessboard appeared.
Seeing this, Taiyi and Emperor Tapia quickly flew to James’ side.
“Be careful, he’s up to something,” Taiyi warned.
“Yes, Mordecai is different from Dillon. He is very treacherous,” Emperor Tapia added softly. “He often has ways to kill gods invisibly.”
James smiled calmly and asked, “Sir Mordecai, do you want to play a game with me?”
Mordecai chuckled sinisterly. “Heaven as the chessboard, stars as the pieces. You and I will become the game itself. How about a wager?”
James raised an eyebrow. “I like gambling. What’s the stake?”
Mordecai spread out one hand, revealing a shimmering pen and a scroll radiating black and white light. “These are the treasures of the last twenty halls of Wuia Palace, as well as each of the ten halls to the east and west. Isn’t that why you’re here?”
At these words, Taiyi and Emperor Tapia quickly looked at James, their expressions tense.
“Brat, just take them since it’s confirmed that the treasures are with him,” Dillon said. Then, he transformed into a beam of light and charged at Mordecai. However, Mordecai disappeared with a flicker, causing Dillon to miss his mark.
Dillon cursed angrily, “Damn old monster, come out and fight!”
There was no response, and the main hall fell eerily silent.
Taiyi, Emperor Tapia, and Dillon were all stunned.
“Your move, Sir Mordecai,” James called out.
Suddenly, a strange light flashed above James’ head and shot into the chessboard.
“Brat, if you dare to gamble, do you dare to come inside?”
Without hesitation, James transformed into a beam of light and entered the chessboard. Instantly, the scene changed from the main hall to a vast, boundless starry sky, with James occupying a universe by himself. Countless stars streaked across the sky, leaving long tails, creating a spectacular sight.
In front of him, an enormous black hole suddenly spun upright, with hundreds of beams of light flashing across it, forming a rotating circular chessboard. On the board, a red and a white star slowly rotated and emitted dazzling brilliance.

"Good things take time" Lol yeah, a hundred and fifty trillion years, apparently....
How was Sheldon Jame's first disciple? Wasn't the Black Eagle King the first? Where has he disappeared to all this time?...
Unbelievable... I thought James was rid of the annoying "honey, darling" Thea by going to the Demonic Realm, but now she's gone there too *puke*...
This Thea is the most narcissistic woman of all, constantly interrupting James's cultivation, getting in the way of his plans and slowing him down. He was well rid of her but the author went bonkers a few hundred chapters into the story and decided to pair her back with James.. Yuck!...
Thea doesn't deserve James, it so sad he loves her...
Thank you so much for all the effort. I love all the stories I've read. I hope to continue reading "The Almighty Dragon General" story. 😊...
