When he first saw the Falling Star Bridge, Fang Yun had the urge to run away. He was different from the other candidates. He knew the power of the falling meteors.
The fourth corridor was only twenty li long and one li wide. If ten meteors fell together, it would be enough to turn this place into ruins. However, the meteors here were not able to do so.
In order to determine the power of the meteors, Fang Yun entered the World of Wondrous Books to look for relevant books. Soon, he found the answer.
When the meteors in the fourth corridor were flying in the sky, their power was the same as normal meteors. However, once they got close to the bridge, their power was obviously weaker. Whether it was the range of the shockwave, the power, or the flames of the meteors, they were not as strong as when they were in the air.
Fang Yun remembered the tiger demon saint's method of dealing with the meteors. It was obviously using the power of the ice bridge to weaken the meteors. The reason why the demon elephant was broken in half was because the meteors did not get close to the ice, so their power was not weakened at all.
Therefore, Fang Yun carefully observed the changes of the meteors. He soon found that as long as the meteors were three chi above the ground, their power would start to weaken. The moment they hit the ice, their power would weaken even more.
Fang Yun immediately walked on the bridge and carefully sensed it. He found that the coldness was the strongest when it was three chi above the ground. After that, it became very weak.
"Meteors and avalanches are the same. They are not natural forces and are controlled by the power of the comet corridor. Moreover, the power of the coldness has an obvious restraining effect on meteors. If one can control the coldness of the ice bridge, it is very possible to pass the Falling Star Bridge. "
"In addition, it is best to understand the purpose of the demon ancestor's test."
Fang Yun thought hard.
"The avalanche slope and the floating ice river both tested strength, reaction, flexibility, and endurance. The meteors on the Falling Star Bridge are so strong that no one can resist them directly. It is impossible to test strength. The tiger demon saint's method of passing the bridge is to weaken the opponent first. It is more like a human's strategy and not the demon race's mainstream fighting method. If I am not wrong, this is a test. It is also the demon ancestor's way of teaching the barbarians when they are absolutely invincible. They must know to rely on other forces! "
Fang Yun thought through this point and was suddenly enlightened.
"Most of the demons and barbarians are inflexible. Even if they are geniuses, their talents are mostly reflected in their strength, and not in their wisdom. They are more willing to use their strength to resolve all conflicts. This method of testing one's mind is a piece of cake for the human race. But, it's different for the demons and barbarians. "
"The Demon Ancestor couldn't teach the Barbarian Demons to use their brains to think, so he simply set up this Bridge of Falling Stars. First, all the Barbarian Demons would 'dodge' the meteors. Finally, they would think of a way to 'weaken' the meteors before they could cross. He wanted to let those Demonic Beasts and Barbarians know. Sometimes, things that can't be solved by brute force can be solved by using your brain. "
Thinking of this, Fang Yun suddenly revealed an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"The Demon Ancestor's test is fine for the talented Demon Barbarians, but it's extremely difficult for us humans to participate in this test, because our speed and reaction can't keep up! It could be said that the entire Comet Corridor was like this. A High Scholar might be able to compose a poem about the proud snow, but when faced with a shooting star, he would not be able to do so. The power of a shooting star was too strong. The talent of a High Scholar was also insufficient. Therefore, like the demons and barbarians, we have to avoid shooting stars. As for the last shooting star, we have to borrow the power of the Ice Bridge. "
"Controlling the chill of the Ice Bridge is one of the reasons. Finding the pattern of the shooting star's descent is equally important, and those safe spots where there are no shooting stars must also be controlled. Only by taking care of all three, can we cross the bridge. Together with the Fleeting Poem, we have a chance to cross. "
Fang Yun thought it through. Turning his head, he found that the High Scholars were also discussing, using Fang Yun's Ice Splitting Technique to conclude. In the end, they found that it wasn't very useful.
Fang Yun raised his head and observed the shooting stars in the sky.
From time to time, there would be some silver-white spots in the sky. After a breath, the spots would turn into shooting stars and rapidly fall. These shooting stars didn't fall naturally, but had an extremely high speed from the start. Usually, it would take two or three breaths for it to fall to the ground.
Fang Yun tried to remember the position of the shooting stars in the sky using the method of the Floating Glacier. Soon, he found a pattern, and his expression relaxed. Not long after, the pattern became clearer, and Fang Yun let out a sigh of relief.
However, after a short while, Fang Yun's expression became serious again.
"The pattern is changing! Or it could be said that there is no long-term pattern! The height, size, and speed of the shooting stars can be tracked for a period of time, but after a while, it will immediately change. Moreover, those shooting stars are too far away, and it is too troublesome to locate them. It is better to observe where the shooting stars will land. Since the place where the Tiger Demon Saint Child stood did not have any shooting stars, perhaps there are more similar places on the ice bridge. "
Fang Yun began to stare at the ground. This time, he didn't look for the pattern of the shooting stars, but looked for the "safe spots", looking for places where the shooting stars would not directly hit.
However, Fang Yun soon found that there was no place that would not be hit by the shooting stars.
Fang Yun was not willing to give up. In his mind, he took the ice bridge that was twenty miles long as a rectangular plane. He then divided it into many vertical and horizontal lines that were ten feet apart, dividing the ice bridge into a ten feet square grid. He then recorded the position of the meteor.
After a full half an hour, eight ice bridge plans appeared in Fang Yun's mind. During this period, the shooting stars changed eight times. At the same time, Fang Yun found an amazing phenomenon. No matter how the shooting stars changed, there were a few places that were very special.
Every time the shooting stars changed, the location where the first batch of shooting stars fell would not have a second batch of shooting stars until the shooting stars changed again.
Fang Yun suddenly understood.
"There are safe spots on the Falling Stars Bridge, but the locations of these safe spots are constantly changing!"
Fang Yun did not immediately express his opinion, but began to look at the bridge surface and cite his method: use the timing of the shooting stars to judge the time of the change of the pattern, and then determine when the shooting stars were the first batch of the new pattern, and thus determine the safe spots.
After verification, Fang Yun was convinced that he had the correct method. He was about to tell the others and let them work together, but suddenly he closed his mouth helplessly.
This was because in the process of finding the pattern of the shooting stars, it involved a lot of mathematics and physics knowledge. Without the formulas, the results would be vague, and whoever used it would die.
Fang Yun helplessly walked over to where the High Scholars were and listened to their opinions.
In the end, Fang Yun realized that they did not have a clear method. This was because they were unable to grasp the pattern of the shooting stars, and thus were unable to find the safe spots. They also did not know how strong the shooting stars were, and thus did not know the changes in their strength. Naturally, they did not know that the cold air could weaken the shooting stars.
After some time, Han Shoulu asked, "Have you found anything?"
"There are some clues. Next, we need to do something. This Comet Corridor is filled with cold air. How much do you know about it? "Fang Yun asked.
Everyone looked at him blankly.
"Besides the cold air, does this thing have any other secrets?" Zong Wude asked.
"The cold air in the ice bridge can weaken the shooting stars. The shooting stars are actually very strong, but once they come into contact with the cold air, their strength will be greatly reduced. If we want to pass through the fourth corridor, we have to learn how to control the cold air. "Fang Yun said.
"Ai, we have no chance. You can ask the rest of us. Even if we were to return to the first corridor, how many of us would dare to try and feel the cold air? If we were to fail, our limbs would freeze and become disabled. In the worst case scenario, we would die. "
Fang Yun laughed, "I didn't think so much at that time."
"That's why you were able to succeed. Our hearts were filled with fear and greed. Even if we were to return to the first corridor, we would not be 'righteous'. If you can do this, you will have a much easier time peeking into the 'Eight Laws of Rites' in the future. "
Fang Yun knew that the 'Book of Rites' mentioned 'investigation of things, knowledge, sincerity, righteousness, cultivation of the body, governance of the country, and peace of the world'. These were the eight eyes of the 'Three Principles' and 'Eight Eyes'. In the Saint Origin world, the 'Eight Laws of Rites' was an important part of the 'Eight Laws of Rites'. The 'Righteousness' was especially helpful for the cultivation of righteousness.
Fang Yundao said, "The righteous are undefeatable. Their courage is like pure gold, and their righteousness is everlasting. Right now, I have not reached the 'Righteousness' level, but my heart is free of distractions. "
"The 'Book of Rites' said, 'If there is fear, then there is no righteousness.' When you were fearless, you naturally became righteous. You should be our teacher. "Han Shoulv said respectfully.
Fang Yun smiled, "The 'Book of Rites' also said, 'If there is worry, then there is no righteousness.' I am still 'born of worry', far from the 'Righteousness' level. If you want to say that I am focused, I can admit it. "
"Teacher Fang, you are worried, but your heart is fearless. That is why you can lead us to cross the avalanche slope. If you can lead us to cross the Falling Star Bridge, then you will not only have the ability of righteousness, but also the ability to investigate things. "Han Shoulv said.
Everyone praised him.
Fang Yun smiled but did not say anything. Investigating things originally referred to investigating the principles of things. Gongzi even listed mechanisms, gears, and levers as objects. Using the knowledge of later generations to solve the Falling Star Bridge was indeed the same as investigating things.
Zong Wude laughed, "You teachers and students should stop praising each other! Let's get down to business! How to control the chill? Who has a way? Yukong, you have the highest cultivation talent among us, can you comprehend the power of the chill? "
Yan Yukong shook his head and said, "I missed the first corridor and have now lost the best opportunity to comprehend the chill. Don't consider me. However, this chill is everywhere, so it must have originated from the comet and the power of the demon ancestor. We can't do anything, but Fang Yun can. He can use the comet or the power of the demon ancestor to control the chill. "
Mo Shan, who was at the side, suddenly said, "Delun, did the dragon of the Kong Family pass the Comet Corridor with the power of the comet or the demon ancestor's item?"
Everyone laughed and looked at Kong Delun. Fang Yun couldn't help but laugh secretly. The top scholars of the Ten Nations were indeed smart. Yan Yukong deduced the nature of the chill after hearing that, and Mo Shan connected it to the method of passing through the Comet Corridor.
Kong Delun smiled bitterly and finally said helplessly, "I really don't know, but I guess it's the latter."
Fang Yun said slowly, "I guess it's the latter too."
