Chapter 269: Strange chill

"I wonder if there will be a figure like the Dragon of the Kong Family among us." Li Fanming said.

"De Lun, you are not planning to be the second dragon of the Kong family, are you?" Zong Wude said with a smile.

Kong Delun shook his head and said, "Don't be ridiculous. The Kong family has entered the Holy Ruins throughout the ages, but in the end, only one Kong family dragon emerged. Without something special, it is even more impossible for me to become the Star King. I will not go to the seventh corridor. As long as I can pass the sixth corridor, I will rest in the safe square and then find a good time to leave. If the demon barbarian becomes the Star King, we will all die here."

"These three saints have outstanding talents. It is said that they are no less talented than the Demon King back then. Once they are allowed to grow up, they will definitely become a great threat to our human race."

"We are powerless. This is the Comet Gallery. It's good enough that they don't kill us. How can we stop them?"

"I'm afraid all three of them are here for the Star King."

"Given their status and position, of course they want to compete for the title of Star King."

"Do you think that the Evil Lord is here for the Star King?"

"Apart from the Star King, what else could make him spend so much effort and several years preparing?"

"That may not be the case. The Holy Ruins have many secrets. He may want to borrow a passage from the Holy Ruins to go somewhere else."

"If he is really after the King of Stars, I'm afraid it's true as Fang Yun said before, he has obtained a magical object related to the Comet Corridor." Han Shoulu said.

"That's uncertain. All we can do now is figure out how to cross the Falling Star Bridge."

"well… "

Everyone sighed, this Falling Star Bridge was really beyond their limits.

"Fang Yun, it's up to you." Yan Yukong said helplessly.

Fang Yun nodded and said, "You guys continue to look for a solution, I'll try again."

After Fang Yun finished speaking, he called Niu Shan to walk to the edge of the Falling Star Bridge together. He asked Niu Shan to release his qi and blood to protect himself from the shock wave of the falling meteor, and then began to feel the chill.

The chill here was even stronger. Fang Yong tried his best to feel the chill, but it had no effect at all. He only felt cold, and gained nothing.

Fang Yun was not discouraged and continued to slowly feel the chill of the Falling Star Bridge. If he could not feel it deeply, he would not be able to attract the chill and would not be able to pass the Falling Star Bridge.

Fang Yun did not use his literary power to resist, and soon his body gradually stiffened. In a trance, Fang Yun felt as if he had returned to the first corridor, struggling to move forward in the cold wind of the first corridor. Soon, Fang Yun felt that he was buried in the avalanche slope, and the cold white snow covered his body.

Fang Yun stood there like an ice sculpture.

I don't know how long it took, but Fang Yun felt a kind of anger from the cold. This anger was not anger, but more like a seed slowly sprouting and blooming. Then the anger suddenly changed, like the sky and the earth were angry and the mountains and rivers collapsed.

Fang Yun felt dazed, and the images of the universe and starry sky that he had seen before appeared in his mind. He used to think those images were extremely beautiful. But now he felt a strong sense of coldness, loneliness and despair from them.

In the end, Fang Yun felt that he had completely lost consciousness and was lost in the boundless starry sky.

Suddenly, a huge shadow appeared in front of them, emitting a devastating pressure that tore the entire starry sky apart.

Fang Yun suddenly woke up, and the chill in his body became vague and no longer actively eroded him.

Fang Yun's eyes were confused, and it took a long time for his eyes to become clear, and then he fell into deep thought. After a long time, he tried to induce the coldness, and found that the coldness was the same as the vitality of heaven and earth. Once the vitality of heaven and earth was driven by talent, the coldness could be driven and formed into a powerful force.

Fang Yun stood for a long time before getting off the bridge, and all the candidates were looking at him under the bridge.

"You finally came down. We thought you were frozen."

"How about it, is there a solution?"

Everyone looked at Fang Yun with anticipation.

Fang Yun nodded slightly and said, "I already have a vague idea. If nothing goes wrong, I can successfully bring everyone to the half mile after the bridge, but I am not completely sure how to pass the last half mile."

Everyone's eyes dimmed, but no one said anything. The test in the fourth corridor was too difficult, so it was normal that Fang Yun couldn't do it.

Fang Yun looked towards the bridge. Not only did the number of monsters on and around the bridge not decrease, but they increased instead. It seemed that the monsters from the third corridor had already arrived one after another.

There was no Son of God on the bridge at the moment, and I'm afraid they had already passed through the fourth corridor successfully.

Fang Yun asked: "Did all those saints cross the bridge in the same way?"

Li Fanming said, "No. A lizard barbarian actually used the magic of his lizard clan to let a meteor hit him, but before he died he threw his broken tail away, and his body perished along with the meteor, and the broken tail soon turned into a new lizard barbarian."

"I've heard of escaping by cutting off the tail. What about other monsters?"

"Others followed the example of the Tiger Demon Saint Son and let the meteor hit the ice bridge first, and then used various methods to deal with it. Some used their bodies to resist like the Tiger Demon Saint Son, some used special magic, and some used their terrifying speed to directly run off the bridge, and the meteor naturally dissipated."

"You have seen how they escaped. Do you have any inspiration?"

"It's inspiring. We have already discussed how to avoid the first attack of the meteor. When we enter the last area, we will first use the power of the war poem to protect ourselves, then use the galloping poem to rush forward, while timing and reciting the Great Wind Song fluently while running. When the meteor is about to fall, recite the last sentence of the Great Wind Song, and let the strong wind formed by the Great Wind Song explode and blow us away. Combined with the speed of the galloping poem, it will be enough to avoid the meteor!"

Fang Yun said: "I have thought of this method, but when the Great Wind Song explodes, if you use the defensive war poem, the power of the Great Wind Song will not be able to blow you away. If you don't use the defensive war poem, the power of the Great Wind Song will be enough to seriously injure you. How can you avoid the next attack of the meteor?"

"That's right. The ending is that we are seriously injured, so we can only be inspired but not implemented. What's more, the speed of the meteor is too fast, and we can't seize the opportunity at all." Li Fanming smiled helplessly.

Fang Yun suddenly smiled and said, "After hearing what you said, it suddenly occurred to me that this method can be used as the last link!"

"Oh?" Everyone's dim eyes suddenly brightened.

"Hurry up and tell me!"

"I believe you have a way!"

The big rabbit nearby was jumping excitedly.

Fang Yun said: "If a meteor that passes through the ice hits you, can you use the Great Wind Song to dodge it in time?"

"Of course! We are not pigs! What can you do?" Sun Naiyong asked loudly.

Fang Yun said: "I can create an ice wall, like an ice bridge, to let the meteor pass through, weakening the power of the meteor, and then you can detonate the power of "The Great Wind Song". Blow yourself away, and then let the meteor hit the bridge. In this way, the remaining power of the meteor is minimal. Even if we are seriously injured, we can defeat the last meteor with the power of speaking."

"Wait! Putting aside whether you can create an ice wall containing strange power, are you talking about 'us'?" Shi Tang asked in disbelief.

"Yes! If you observe carefully, you will find that a meteor as big as a human head can only create a hole of two meters in radius when it hits the ice surface. As long as we are more than three meters away from each other, we don't have to worry about being hit by multiple meteors. Other than that, I have no other way to help you cross the Falling Star Bridge. It's up to you to decide whether to cross or not."

"Fang Yun, how confident are you that you can do this?"

Fang Yun had already made some calculations and immediately said, "Eighty percent!"

"Ah? So high? I'll join in!" Li Fanming was a little excited.

"I think it's at most 50% sure, but 80% is worth a try!"

However, more than ten candidates were hesitant. This was not an avalanche slope. Everyone had seen the power of a meteor. It was unbelievable that Fang Yun could obtain the power of the ice bridge.

"I... quit." A scholar turned around and left silently. He went to the side and used the ice stone to return to the square before, stopping at the fourth corridor.

"I'm quitting too..."

"For me, being able to enter the Comet Corridor is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and now I have passed the third corridor. I am very satisfied. I know that my ability is limited, and even with Fang Yun's help, I may not be able to pass safely. I'm sorry. Thank you Fang Yun! If you go to Jia Country in the future, I will definitely treat you with great gifts!"

One by one, the candidates dropped out, and in the end only twenty-one remained.

The people around Fang Yun did not blame those who quit. Doing things within one's ability is one of the principles for scholars.

Not all the candidates who withdrew left, and there were still five candidates standing aside, ready to wait for Fang Yun's results before making a decision, their eyes were full of contradictions.

"Who else wants to leave?" Fang Yun looked around at the remaining twenty people and the monster and the barbarian.

No one spoke.

"Okay! My way of crossing the bridge is very special and it's hard to explain, but I'll tell you some things to pay attention to. As long as you don't wander around, I'm confident that I can get you to the half mile end of the bridge."

Next, Fang Yun explained the precautions one by one, and then led everyone to the bridge. He quietly looked up at the sky. After a wave of meteors fell, Fang Yun said, "Use the Galloping Battle Poem!"

Everyone was talking about war on paper or speaking eloquently, and everyone was surrounded by the power of the galloping war poem, blowing in the breeze, and then, led by Fang Yun, they rushed towards the Falling Star Bridge.

The meteors at the bridgehead were relatively rare, so everyone just followed Fang Yun without thinking, and Fang Yun would look up after running a step or two.

The speed of Jixingshi was very fast. After Fang Yun arrived at a place, he suddenly stopped and said, "This is one of the safe spots. Wait a minute."

Fang Yun then looked up and calculated the patterns of the stars in the sky. After getting a clue, he immediately ran to the next safe point.

The vitality of heaven and earth here is extremely rich, and the duration of the Galloping War Poem is dozens of times longer than usual. Everyone almost kept using the Galloping War Poem along the way.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Fang Yun led everyone to half a mile from the end of the bridge.

The Falling Star Bridge was obviously more difficult than the first three corridors, but they reached the last half mile in such a short time that when Fang Yun said "we're there", they couldn't believe it.

"Fang Yun has suffered a lot." Yan Yukong sighed softly.

"The easier it is for us to walk, the harder it will be for Fang Yun, our leader."

Fang turned around and was about to speak, but he stared at the bridge head in a daze.

Because it was safer here, everyone looked back and saw more than a dozen blood demons advancing along the route he had taken before, more than half of them were holy demons.

The blood demons soon discovered that Fang Yun was looking at them, and began to smile triumphantly. (To be continued...)
