In the endgame at this moment, white stones occupy more eyes than black stones. The formation formed by white stones is orderly and invincible, while the formation of black stones is more like demolishing the east wall to repair the west wall, which is precarious.
“Try this place!”
Mu Yu planned to launch an attack. He had been deducing it in his mind for so long. He had to at least give it a try. As soon as his idea came to his mind, the huge chess piece behind him had already risen into the air and headed towards the position he wanted. The black piece fell into the chessboard.
, splashing countless waves, but it did not disturb any chess piece.
Then a white stone was forced to sink into the bottom of the sea and disappeared.
The chess soul smiled softly, shook his head and said: "You take away the white piece on my side, but I will destroy your subsequent formation."
The white piece hit the chessboard from behind the chess soul, setting off a huge wave and destroying Mu Yu's formation again. The white piece came so fiercely that Mu Yu was still caught off guard when he tried to break out from the side.
"Then, let's go here." Mu Yu's mouth went dry for a while. He actually felt very unsure when playing chess, because he was facing the spirit of chess, a Go master Alpha Gou, and he was a chess player.
A rookie who is just trying to figure out what to do has no chance of winning.
As soon as he landed the black piece, he realized something was wrong. This move exposed his gap more clearly.
Sure enough, after only two rounds, there was a sudden strong wind on the sea, and ferocious sharks emerged from the bottom of the sea one after another, biting Mu Yu's three sunspots and dragging them into the bottom of the sea!
"If you keep going, you will have nowhere to go." Qihun said calmly.
The chess spirit was so powerful that Mu Yu couldn't breathe. This was not the first time that he used his weak points to compete with others. When he was in the Aland Cauldron Sect for a spot in the Second Heaven, he didn't know how to make alchemy at all.
He rushed to the shelves and competed for a spot with a lot of talented alchemy disciples from the Alchemy Sect. In the end, he was lucky enough to win because the shameless old man who kept the cabinet deliberately changed the rules for the sake of half-finished elixirs.
But here, he has no luck at all. If he wins, he wins, if he loses, he loses. If he makes one mistake, he loses everything. There is no special halo.
"Can I do it again?" Mu Yu asked.
The chess soul waved his hand, and the entire chess game returned to its original position. However, Mu Yu's whole body suddenly sank, and he found that the coral reef he was on began to fall two feet downward.
"When you sink to the bottom of the sea, you have no chance. You have to come back next time." Qi Soul said, and then reminded him kindly, "Sink to the bottom of the sea, and those sharks will bite you to death, and you will feel the pain of death firsthand.
of."
Mu Yu shuddered, damn! What the hell is this place where you have to be bitten to death by a shark if you want to get out?
He thought again for a long time, and finally made another move! He wanted to break out from the other side and kill a white piece. But the chess spirit took action again and defeated Mu Yu!
The third time, the fourth time...
Mu Yu realized that if he failed three more times, he would sink to the bottom of the sea. The chess spirit seemed to have calculated the position of his moves long ago, and defeated Mu Yu effortlessly every time.
"There must be something wrong! If only Master or Father Kumu had taught me how to play chess." Mu Yu was getting more and more irritated. He always wanted to save Kuroko and break out, but the more he did this, the more he became frustrated.
fail.
Playing chess is like setting up a formation. Feng Haochen never taught him the formation knowledge, but Kumu taught him a lot of formation knowledge. The problem was that this formation was too difficult for Mu Yu to understand.
The reason why the endgame is called an endgame is because there must be a glimmer of hope. Where exactly is this glimmer of hope?
Mu Yu thought carefully, but his thoughts were brought back to the time he was in Kumu Valley. At that time, Kumu had just captured him from Fuxian Island and confined him in the valley.
——
"Old man, your formation has killed so many people, don't you feel at ease when you sleep at night?" At that time, Mu Yu was still very young, and he naively thought that dead wood looked like him and looked very evil.
Kumu glanced at Mu Yu. Just now Mu Yu had angered him again, and now he was hanging upside down in the air, swinging.
"Everything should be done with a grain of salt. I have made the formations so simple and they still can't pass, so why should they ask me to do something? Why should I accept them as my disciples? What does their death have to do with me?
If you don't have the ability, you shouldn't overestimate your abilities!" Kumu said.
"Everything should be done with a grain of salt, I didn't see you leaving any hints!" Mu Yu became more honest after being hung up by the dead wood a few times. Knowing that it was useless to struggle, he simply folded his arms and looked down and said.
"If I hadn't left an antidote grass on the edge of the poisonous fog, others would have been able to get in? If I hadn't left that living vine, do you think you could get out of the mirror formation with your little cleverness? Do you think I'm very smart?
Do you want others to die in my valley? What has become of my place? A cemetery? Those people who died are all because of my absence. If I were here, I would see those guys who overestimate their capabilities and throw them out.
, so as not to look bad." Kumu said angrily.
Mu Yu clicked his tongue. He really didn't know this. When he passed through the poisonous fog, he didn't rely on the antidote grass to get in. He knew that he wrongly blamed the dead wood, but he still asked: "Where is the demon tree in the sky? You, the demon tree in the sky?"
No hints were given!”
"If you don't hurt the Sky Demon Tree, will it actively attack you? If you want to get through the angry Sky Demon Tree, you must learn to retreat in order to advance, and not aim at harming the Sky Demon Tree. Only then can you pick the Sky Demon Fruit.
When everyone sees the Sky Demon Tree, they can't wait to pick the Sky Demon Fruit. He deserves to be eaten by the Sky Demon Fruit!" Kumu snorted coldly.
——
Retreat to advance? Retreat to advance!
A flash of lightning flashed across Mu Yu's mind, and the chess game in his eyes suddenly became clear. When he saw the Sky Demon Tree in the valley, the Sky Demon Tree was covered with fruits. The purpose of everyone coming here was to pick them.
To take the Sky Demon Fruit, everyone will attack directly, and therefore they will be beaten by the Sky Demon Fruit and run away in embarrassment.
This is a kind of qualitative thinking. If you want to get something, you will definitely act according to conventional methods.
Just like this chess game, when most people see the chess game, they will think: the black stone has been captured by the white stone and is in danger. If you want to win, you must not lose any more black stones, so the first thought is to find ways to attack the white stone.
Launch an attack.
But no matter where you start, you will be chased and intercepted by Bai Zi, and you will lose miserably. This is simply not feasible.
If you want to win, you must use retreat to make progress, know how to make choices, and gain only after you lose!
Mu Yu overturned all the solutions he had found in the past few days and began to re-examine the chess game. The formation of the black pieces was like a piece of loose sand, surrounded by the white pieces, which made it difficult to move. The white pieces seemed to have a magnificent formation.
In fact, because the formation of black stones is scattered, the formation of white stones is also indirectly divided.
Bai Zi wants to destroy Heizi in one go, but all that means he will be exhausted again and again. As long as Bai Zi is tempted to use his momentum in unimportant places, then it will be a great opportunity for Heizi to fight back!
Mu Yu's eyes are no longer obsessed with the existing formation. He has been thinking about expanding the formation, so he is determined not to let Bai Zi have the possibility of eating Kuroko. But no matter where he starts, Bai Zi will break it. This is also What bothered him was that there were already few black stones, so how could he let the white ones eat more?
But often if you want to succeed in something, you need to do the opposite. At this time, the best way should be to abandon some of the unimportant black stones, and start from the overall situation, guide the offensive momentum of white stones to one side, and start To the effect of abandoning the car to save the handsome man.
When you are at a disadvantage, you have to cut off an arm. Very few people dare to try this, but in battle it is often impossible to kill the enemy without paying a price!
Mu Yu's eyes quickly locked onto a formation, which could be said to be the only winning point in this endgame.
"Have you decided on your move?" Chess Soul looked at Mu Yu calmly.
A sudden thought occurred in Mu Yu's heart. He suddenly thought that all the chess skills he had learned came from the chess spirit. The chess spirit skills were so superb. Did he not think of this move? What should he do if he was not fooled?
"No, no, if I land the black piece here, the white piece will definitely choose to intercept it for its own benefit. If it doesn't move here, it will be equivalent to giving me a step, and then it will not be able to restrict my formation!"
Mu Yu's eyes narrowed, he turned his head and glanced behind him, and a huge sunspot fell behind him. As soon as his thoughts came to his mind, the sunspot had already fallen towards the position Mu Yu thought of. The sunspot landed on the sea, causing a huge There were waves, but all the chess pieces remained motionless.
"It's your turn!" Mu Yu said nervously.
He does not have as advanced chess skills as Qi Soul. With Qi Soul's ability, he will definitely be able to deduce the subsequent development. Muyu's move is equivalent to a desperate move!
The chess soul did not make a move. He looked at Mu Yu and said: "If you make this move, it means that three black stones will be taken away by me. With your current formation, I'm afraid you can no longer withstand losses, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense, I want to give it a try!" Muyu clenched his fists. He was still a novice. At most, he could only deduce the next few steps. He had no confidence at all in the development of the end game.
"Why did you take this step?" Qihun continued to ask.
"Retreat to advance. If I don't lose something, I have no chance at all!" Mu Yu sighed, thinking that he couldn't defeat the chess spirit anyway, so there was nothing to hide.
"Then if I continue to besiege this place, you will lose three more, right?" The chess soul smiled, but did not make a move. He just pointed at a location, and a white light appeared on the chessboard.
Mu Yu had known this result for a long time. As soon as an idea came to his mind, a black light appeared in another direction.
"If you play here, I will eat three more of your black stones. If you take the next step, you will lose nearly half of your black stones. Can you really afford it?" The chess spirit said with a smile.
Mu Yu sighed, surely this won't work?
But something was wrong. He deduced it carefully. If he lost half of it, his formation would become more compact. At this time, white would have countless flaws. At that time, his black would be like a fish in water and regain it. Lost ground!
"That's right! That's right! That's it, only in this way can I win!" Mu Yu exclaimed happily, "Go fast, go fast, I feel like I can win!"
But the chess soul didn't move at all, he just looked at Mu Yu.
"Hurry!" Mu Yu urged.
"No need, when you choose to retreat in order to advance, you have already solved the endgame. How many people have tried this endgame but are still unwilling to let themselves lose, you are one of the few." The chess spirit said with a smile,
"Moreover, you are the fastest person to crack the chess formation. What is even more valuable is that you are a person who has just learned to play chess. Being able to do this is already considered quite good."
Hearty laughter resounded throughout the entire sea area, and countless sharks suddenly emerged from the bottom of the sea, swallowing up all the chess pieces. Then Mu Yu's mind was shaken, and his consciousness had returned to his body.
Mu Yu suddenly opened his eyes, glanced at everyone in the advancement hall, and found that everyone was already looking at him. Mu Yu shrugged his shoulders, not paying attention to them.
He secretly reviewed the way he broke the formation just now, and found that the test of this formation monument was not how superb the formation skills were, but whether the way of thinking could break the rules and dare to try unusual paths.
Xiantian disciples are not required to master how many formations, but they must know how to adapt and make choices about a formation.
Mu Yu's hand left the formation monument, and then slowly walked outside.
"Did he succeed?" Zhao Lianggong asked in surprise.
"Of course it failed. The formation monument hasn't been broken yet! Do you really think this innate disciple is that good?" Luo Feilong snorted coldly.
However, as soon as Luo Feilong finished speaking, the formation monument behind Mu Yu collapsed!
