After escaping far enough and making sure that no one was chasing them, Linlong and the other two stopped and went into a house to hide.
"Brother Anguo, thank you very much," Linlong said to Wu Anguo.
Linlong knew that if it wasn't for Wu Anguo, it would have been very difficult for him to save Shen Xiaoying.
Because Linlong had saved Wu Anguo previously, Wu Anguo had asked Linlong to address him as brother.
"Brother Lin, don't mention it. I haven't even repaid you for saving me previously." Wu Anguo couldn't help but smile.
Linlong nodded and said, "Brother Anguo, you should rest first."
"Okay." With that, Wu Anguo swallowed a healing pill and walked into a room inside to meditate and heal his injuries.
Wu Anguo had not been injured yet. The reason he could unleash such strength just now was because he had activated a secret skill. His body could not withstand the secret skill when his injuries were not healed, so he naturally had to meditate and heal his injuries.
"Brother Lin, weren't you seriously injured before? Why do you seem to have recovered now?" At this time, Shen Xiaoying finally had the time to ask the question in her heart.
Linlong couldn't help but smile. "My injuries on the surface weren't that serious before. The main injury was actually in my mental strength."
"So your mental strength has recovered?" Shen Xiaoying asked.
"No." Linlong shook his head. "It's just a little better. However, a little better is enough for me to stimulate the energy of the Qi-boosting Pill in my body."
During the period when Shen Xiaoying had been captured, Linlong's Spiritual Force had recovered a little after taking the healing pill. Because of this, he could stimulate such energy.
Of course, in a situation where his Spiritual Force had not recovered, forcibly stimulating such energy would also overdraw his body. Therefore, he still needed to rest and heal now.
Shen Xiaoying didn't realize this. She continued to ask, "Brother He seemed to have sent people to capture you just now. Did they not find you?"
Linlong smiled and said, "Those two people did find the house that you and I were hiding in. However, at that time, a few wooden planks fell on top of my head and buried me. Those two people were too lazy to look carefully and didn't find me, so I escaped."
Lin Long's heart palpitated as he recalled what had just happened. If those two hadn't been slacking off, he would have been caught by brother He and the rest.
And if he was captured by Brother He and the others, it was basically impossible for Wu Anguo to save them by himself.
"If that's the case, then I'm really lucky." Shen Xiao Ying couldn't help but pat her chest.
"Alright, Xiao Ying, I also need to meditate and heal my injuries," Linlong said.
"En," Shen Xiao Ying replied obediently.
As for Linlong, he was already sitting on the ground, meditating to treat his injuries.
Shen Xiaoying actually had another question, and that was what happened to the Runic Magic Circle at the stone tower. Had the treasure appeared, or had there been a passage to the treasure?
But seeing Linlong like this, she didn't ask anymore.
Six hours later, Linlong opened his eyes. At this moment, he looked much more relaxed. This was naturally due to the fact that the damage to his Divine Will had been slightly repaired.
Seeing this, Shen Xiao Ying couldn't help but be overjoyed. "Big brother Lin, have your injuries healed?"
"Partially healed." Linlong nodded.
The reason why Linlong had recovered so quickly was naturally because of his special healing medicine. If it had been someone else, they wouldn't have recovered so quickly.
Shen Xiao Ying didn't know this, so she just nodded and wasn't surprised.
Linlong was about to check on Wu Anguo's condition, but Wu Anguo had already opened the door and walked out.
"Brother Anguo, how are you?" Linlong looked at Wu Anguo and smiled.
"I'm much better. Activating the secret skill is no longer a problem." Wu Anguo smiled.
"Brother Anguo, it's best not to activate the secret skill too often," Linlong immediately said.
The more the secret skill was used, the greater the side effects on the body. It wasn't something that could be resolved by taking healing medicine. It was fine for Linlong to have a body technique, but he had to be careful when it came to people like Wu Anguo. If he wasn't careful, he might even be paralyzed for life. No matter how powerful the medicine was, it wouldn't be able to save him.
"Brother Lin, it's just a small matter." Wu Anguo didn't care.
Of course, there was nothing he could do even if he cared. Inside here, he wouldn't be a match for Wu Jinyu and the others if he didn't use the secret skill while his injuries hadn't fully recovered.
"Brother Lin, let's hurry over to the stone tower and see how the Runic Magic Circle is doing," Wu Anguo said.
"Alright." Linlong nodded.
Then, the three of them immediately headed in the direction of the stone tower.
The three of them were naturally careful along the way. Not long after, they arrived near the stone tower.
At this time, they could clearly see the situation on top of the stone tower. Looking at the stone tower, they could see that there was obviously more light on the stone tower.
Previously, there were six lights, but now there were eight.
Not only that, but the Runic Arrays appeared more frequently, and the time they stayed was longer as well.
However, other than that, there were no other abnormalities.
After looking around carefully, the three of them hid in a wooden house. This place was the furthest from the stone tower, but it had a wide view.
From here, they could see that there were already many people gathered on the square below the stone tower. Most of them were the people they had seen in the great hall.
Some of them were looking at the top of the stone tower, some were deep in thought, some were gathered together to discuss something, and some even walked to the top of the stone tower.
Lin Longfa's people also tried to activate the Runic Magic Circle at the top of the tower, but they didn't suffer a backlash like he did, nor did anything abnormal happen.
After realizing that they couldn't affect the Runic Magic Circle, those who tried to activate it could only helplessly walk down.
Wu Jinyu and the other three also seemed to be observing the Runic Magic Circle. However, they spent most of their time looking around, sometimes even walking around.
Evidently, they wanted to find Wu Anguo.
"Big Brother Lin, what's going on?" Shen Xiaoying couldn't help looking at Linlong.
"They don't understand the Runic Magic Circle at all." Linlong directly said.
It was also because of this that they didn't trigger any reaction from the Runic Magic Circle.
Wu Anguo couldn't help but ask, "Brother Lin, could it be that you're also a Runic Master?"
"I only know a little." Linlong couldn't help but smile.
Wu Anguo couldn't help but shake his head. "I also have some understanding of runes. It's a pity that I can't go up now. It would be great if I could go up and take a closer look."
Linlong smiled and said, "Brother Anguo, don't worry. Looking at the way the Runic Magic Circle is developing, something else will happen very soon."
"Of course." Wu Anguo nodded.
The three of them continued to observe, but what they didn't expect was that as time passed, there was still no change at the top of the stone tower.
There were still only eight rays of light, and the frequency and time of the Runic Magic Circle's appearance was no different from what they had seen before.
Linlong couldn't help muttering, "Could it really be what I think it is?"
Wu Anguo couldn't help but ask, "Brother Lin, what do you think is the reason?"
"I feel that it's very likely that each death will cause an additional ray of light to appear on the top of the tower. Only when a sufficient number of people die will the Runic Magic Circle develop to the desired result." Linlong said.
"That's indeed a possibility." Wu Anguo's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard Linlong's words.
"Big brother Lin, how did you figure it out?" Shen Xiaoying curiously asked.
"I guessed." Linlong smiled.
He naturally didn't guess it, but based on his experience and what he had just seen. However, he naturally wouldn't tell Shen Xiaoying and Wu Anguo the reason.
After a while, a smile appeared on Linlong's face. He looked at Wu Anguo and Shen Xiaoying and said, "Now, we might be able to verify if my guess is correct."
"Yes, what do you mean?" Wu Anguo couldn't help but ask.
"Do you see those two people?" Linlong pointed to a place not far to the left.
Wu Anguo's eyes involuntarily narrowed as he looked in the direction that Lin Long was pointing at. A cold expression surfaced on his face. Those two people were none other than Li Han's group that had chased after him earlier.
One of them was Li Han, whom Linlong was extremely familiar with.
"Brother Lin, you mean that we should go over and kill the two of them to see if there are any changes to the Runic Magic Circle?" Wu Anguo asked.
"Yes." Linlong nodded.
"Then let's go over." Wu Anguo immediately agreed.
"Xiaoying, hide here. We'll go over and kill the two of them. We'll be back soon." Linlong said to Shen Xiaoying.
"Okay." Shen Xiaoying nodded obediently.
"Remember, no matter what happens to us, don't leave this place." Linlong reminded her again.
Linlong said this only because he was afraid that there would really be an accident. With his and Wu Anguo's strength, it was very unlikely that something like that would happen to them.
The reason why he asked Wu Anguo to go along was naturally because he wanted to take down Li Han and Li Zhi as soon as possible. After all, Wu Jinyu's group was not far away.
If they were too slow, it would be troublesome if Wu Jinyu's group caught up to them.
Immediately, the two of them moved towards Li Han and Li Zhi.
As soon as they went over, they saw Li Zhi and Li Zhi walking over from the other side.
Knowing that it would be difficult for them to take down Li Han and Li Zhi after Li Zhi and Li Zhi came over, they looked at each other and hastened their footsteps.
Soon, Linlong appeared in front of Li Han and Li Zhi.
At this moment, they happened to be behind a wooden house, so Li Zhi and Li Zhi and the others in the square did not see what was happening.
"Lin Li!" Li Han's eyes lit up as soon as he saw Linlong.
"It's really effortless to search high and low, only to find what you're looking for." Then, after confirming that the person who suddenly appeared in front of him was Linlong, Li Han laughed.
In his opinion, the two of them would definitely be able to take down Linlong. After all, the person beside him was a level-2 warrior from the Li Family.
