"This is exactly what I was talking about, the difference from the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge," the Little Fairy spoke.
"The real Black Crow Life and Death Bridge forms instantly upon sensing the breath of a living being."
"And obviously, the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge in front of you is not like that."
"My guess is that someone has set up a trigger array on this Black Crow Life and Death Bridge."
"And the condition for triggering, as far as we can see now, should be... the number of people," the Little Fairy said.
"The number of people?" Upon hearing this, Qin Chen immediately thought of what had just happened.
It seemed like it was only after Cai Feng and the others from the Guiyuan Sect arrived that the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge was formed.
Triggering the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge by the number of people was very possible.
Qin Chen didn’t dwell too much on this issue.
What he was truly concerned with wasn’t how the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge formed, but how to get across it.
"The Black Crow Life and Death Bridge is made up of countless black crows and a very limited number of dead crows."
"Once those black crows are disturbed, the one who provokes them will instantly trigger the crows’ group attack."
"The youth just now stepped directly on a black crow, causing the group attack and ending up being devoured," said the Little Fairy.
"If that’s the case, according to what you said, to cross the bridge, we must find the only dead crows among them and ultimately step on them, right?" Qin Chen asked.
Stepping on a black crow would directly alarm it and trigger an attack.
But dead crows, having lost their lives, should not pose any problem if stepped on, right?
"Correct," the Little Fairy nodded.
"The Black Crow Life and Death Bridge tests your observation, perception, and nature of heart."
"All three are indispensable."
"Without astonishing observation and perception, it would be impossible to find the dead crows among the countless black ones."
"Likewise, the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge, as you’ve just seen, is extremely dangerous. One wrong step is equivalent to walking straight to your death."
"Therefore, those who want to cross must possess a strong nature of heart."
"The more the trial arrays are like the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge, the more one must stabilize their heart and not panic."
"Because a panic could very well cost one’s life," the Little Fairy said.
After listening, Qin Chen took a deep breath.
It seemed that the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge wasn’t something easy to cross.
One step life, one step death!
Life and death, in the span of a step!
This indeed confirmed the name of the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge.
Following what the Little Fairy had said, Qin Chen began to recall the enigmatic aspects observed under his Void-breaking Eyes during the process of the young man being devoured.
Gradually, Qin Chen closed his eyes and kept on recalling in his mind.
Seeing Qin Chen close his eyes at that moment, Guo Chen and the others were all full of confusion.
However, they didn’t say much.
At this time, everyone was sizing up the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge while quietly discussing.
Meanwhile, when their gazes unintentionally lingered on the water pools beside the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge, the intense covetousness in their eyes was not hard to discern.
After a while, Qin Chen suddenly opened his tightly shut eyes, a flicker of brightness within them.
"Try? Qin Chen, you want to go on the bridge?"
Upon hearing Qin Chen’s words, Mon Tianran’s heart skipped a beat.
Hearing this, Qin Chen nodded at Mon Tianran with a smile.
"Do you have confidence?" Guo Chen asked with a skeptical expression.
He didn’t understand why Qin Chen would have this idea and even seem to be quite confident.
Because he was completely confused at the moment.
He even felt an impulse to leave helplessly.
After all, although those pools of water were incredibly tempting, compared to the treasures within, life naturally took precedence.
"Some," Qin Chen nodded.
He certainly did not have full confidence.
But when it came to testing observation, perception, and mindset, at least seventy percent confidence, Qin Chen did have.
Observation and perception—he was a Telekinesis Master, naturally more formidable than an ordinary Martial Artist.
In addition, he possessed the Little Void Breaking Technique, such a Saint Inheritance Technique.
As for mindset, Qin Chen had gone through the Heart Formation Assessment in the Asura Ancestral Land.
Moreover, as a Body Refining Martial Artist, he had experienced pain beyond what most could imagine; in terms of mindset, perhaps no one present could surpass Qin Chen.
Perhaps, in a subtle way, this Black Crow Life and Death Bridge was prepared for Qin Chen.
He had, an absolute advantage!
Guo Chen’s eyebrows slightly furrowed as he looked at Qin Chen. It seemed he wanted to ask where Qin Chen’s confidence came from, but then he thought better of it and did not ask further.
"Be careful," Mon Tianran knew that Qin Chen was not reckless.
Since Qin Chen had clearly seen what had just happened and knew how dangerous the bridge was, yet still dared to step onto it, it meant that Qin Chen might really have some confidence.
"Mm," Qin Chen nodded.
Afterward, Qin Chen took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge.
He did not pay too much attention to the pools of water on either side of the Black Crow Bridge.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t tempted, but Qin Chen believed that as long as he could get on the bridge, he would naturally be able to get the treasures beside the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge. There was no need to be overly fixated on them.
At this time, his focus should be entirely on how to get onto the bridge.
"Eh? That Qin Chen is actually going up the bridge?"
As Qin Chen moved toward the Black Crow Life and Death Bridge, many people who were deliberating turned to look.
In their eyes, there was a hint of surprise.
"Could it be that he’s found some mystery?" someone said, furrowing their brows.
"Mystery? Do you think that’s possible?"
Someone let out a scoff.
Qin Chen’s strength was indeed not weak.
But of the many people present, even Guo Chen had not discerned any mystery, and they didn’t believe that Qin Chen could have seen anything in the blink of an eye just now.
"Brother Ba, looks like we don’t have to make a move ourselves."
Among the Nine Palaces Sect ranks, a disciple who saw Qin Chen’s action spoke with a cold smirk.
"It’s a pity I couldn’t kill him with my own hands," said Ba Zhao with a cold laugh, but he was quite pleased in his heart.
After all, if he killed Qin Chen, he would definitely anger Guo Chen, leading to a series of troubles.
If Qin Chen died on this Black Crow Life and Death Bridge, that would be more than ideal for Ba Zhao.
"It seems the disciples of the One-star Sects are not only of low status and weak strength, but their brains also seem to be lacking," scoffed Cai Feng from the ranks of the Guiyuan Sect.
Hearing Cai Feng’s words, Ba Zhao’s expression changed slightly, and he hesitated, but he did not say much.
Previously, outside Senmo Ancient City, and within the main hall, Qin Chen and Ba Zhao had conflicts, and Cai Feng had arrived afterward.
So, Cai Feng merely thought that Qin Chen was just a Sect Disciple of a One-star Sect.
"If he wants to be the cannon fodder, then let him be," said a young man beside Cai Feng with a cold laugh.
His name was Hong Xiu, and his strength was on par with Xiang Yvvu, boasting the power of the Heavenly Origin Second Realm at its peak; among all the Guiyuan Sect disciples, his status was second only to Cai Feng.
"That’s right, if someone is willing to scout ahead for us, all the better for us to watch," Cai Feng said, nodding.
