"Of course." After lightly smiling, Linlong started to silently recite the rune terms again.
Very quickly, the runes that were originally incessantly flashing disappeared without a trace, as if they were never there.
"Okay, the Runic Formation has been canceled," Linlong said after looking at the people in front.
But at that moment, none of them dared to move. Very clearly, they were afraid of being mysteriously killed like the Black Bamboo Monster before.
"Brat, go up and try," said Monster Xuan Yan while looking at Linlong.
"Yeah, brat, go up and pick it up."
Monster Xuan Yan's words received the agreement of the others. None of them dared to go up and try, but they were afraid that if they called someone else up, that person would immediately pick it up and run. So, they put their attention on Linlong.
To them, even if Linlong took it, it would be impossible for him to run. So, naturally, they were at ease.
"Mm." After lightly snorting, Linlong strode forward.
Under the gazes of the others, he walked into the range of the Runic Formation unharmed, and grabbed the dazzling golden book.
Seeing that, the others' hearts were immediately moved. In an instant, two of them had already started moving.
But just at that moment, Linlong suddenly said. "Wait."
At the same time, a ball of flame suddenly appeared in his hand. The pale-white transparent flame was actually aimed at the book.
"What are you doing?"
"Stop!"
"You don't want your life?"
Seeing Linlong's appearance of wanting to burn the book, several Martial Lords anxiously yelled. Precisely because of that, they had no choice but to stop their impulses to charge forward.
They didn't want their impulsiveness to cause Linlong to burn the book.
Seeing the flame on Linlong's hand also stop at that moment, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Naturally, Linlong did that because he wanted to stop those people from suddenly advancing. Otherwise, if a group of people surged forward, how could he resist?
"Spiritual Fire!"
"Brat, you actually have a Spiritual Fire! This is truly shocking!"
At that moment, the Martial Lords immediately yelled in astonishment. Clearly, they saw that the flame on Linlong's hand was a Spiritual Fire.
In an instant, their gazes as they looked at Linlong were filled with admiration.
Some of them had not even seen the shadow of a Spiritual Fire after fighting for so many years. However, Linlong, who was only a Martial Master at such a young age, had actually obtained such a Spiritual Fire. How could they not be envious?
"What do we do with the book now?" Linlong couldn't be bothered with them.
As he spoke, he flipped the pages of the book with one hand. Of course, he did not let go of the flames in his other hand. He did not want to give these people any chance.
Knowing that they could only be envious of Linlong's spirit fire, their attention returned to the book.
What to do? For a moment, they were at a loss after exchanging glances with each other.
To be honest, their original plan was to rush up and snatch the book the moment Linlong safely obtained it. However, there was no way they could snatch it now.
However, if Linlong were to throw the book to any one of them, the others would definitely not agree.
"How about this? This book belongs to me, Old Monster Xuan Yan. After obtaining this book, I'll compensate you. How about it?" Old Monster Xuan Yan said after rolling his eyes.
"That won't do. You, Old Monster Xuan Yan, have an extremely bad reputation. We, the Unsightly Fate Twin Ghosts, simply do not believe that you can compensate us." But who knew that just as he finished speaking, the Unsightly Fate Twin Ghosts would refuse.
"The value of this book is inestimable. It is not easy to compensate," the scholarly middle-aged man also said.
Very clearly, he also did not agree to the book belonging to Old Monster Xuan Yan.
"Then are we going to fight to the death here?" Old Monster Xuan Yan's face immediately turned cold as he looked at the other three people.
"Let's fight to the death then. We, the Unsightly Fate Twin Ghosts, aren't afraid of you." Hearing those words, the Unsightly Fate Twin Ghosts immediately replied.
"Fine. Then let me experience your Unsightly Fate Twin Ghosts' joint attack technique," Old Monster Xuan Yan said.
However, after speaking, he did not immediately attack. Instead, he looked at the scholarly middle-aged man on the side and said, "Brother, how about we join hands? That way, they won't be able to fight over the treasure with us."
"Me?" The scholarly middle-aged man was stunned. Originally, he wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, then reap the benefits at the end. Who knew that this old monster Xuan Yan would directly pull him in?
"Of course. Don't tell me you want to reap the benefits at the end?" Old Monster Xuan Yan said coldly.
"Brother, you can't do that. If you fight with him, the final treasure will definitely be snatched away by him," one of the Unsightly Fate Twin Ghosts hurriedly said.
Seeing that the stalemate could not be resolved, the scholarly middle-aged man thought of an idea. He looked at the three people who were glaring at each other and said, "Seniors, that young man and young lady might have other treasures. Why don't we first ask them to hand it over, then we can split it evenly."
"What if they don't have it?"
"If they don't, then we'll think of another way. In short, there is no need to fight to the death at this time," the scholarly middle-aged man continued.
"Then let's do that," one of the Unsightly Fate Twin Ghosts nodded.
The other person also nodded in agreement. After all, they also did not want to fight to the death with Old Monster Xuan Yan now, unless they had no other choice.
As they talked back and forth, at the end, they turned their targets back to Linlong and Zhang Yuhan.
At that time, they suddenly discovered that Zhang Yuhan had already walked up to Linlong's side at some unknown time.
"Brat, don't play any tricks." Old Monster Xuan Yan's face darkened and he coldly said.
"Of course not, I'm only …" Speaking to that point, Linlong closed the book in his hand. Quickly after, what caused the surrounding people to be shocked and endlessly worried was that the flames in Linlong's hand directly burned the book.
If the book wasn't a technique that dominated the world, then it was a unique martial skill! Where could one find a book like that? Yet, the brat directly lit it with fire.
Seeing that scene, all of the Martial Lords' hearts were dripping blood.
The thing that made them the most furious was that Linlong had a very indifferent and unburdened appearance.
Zhang Yuhan who was next to Linlong was also dumbfounded because even though the book wasn't the Spiritual Fire they came to find, it was still a rare secret book!
She didn't understand how Linlong lit it without any burden at all.
"Brat, you're looking to die!"
Amidst such exclamations, the few of them yelled and pounced at Linlong.
A trace of a strange smile appeared on the corners of Linlong's mouth. Quickly after, his hand trembled, and the book was thrown out by him. Shockingly, its direction was the throne behind him.
Seeing the strand of flames floating on the book in the air, how could they have the time to pay attention to Linlong? One after another, they went around Linlong and Zhang Yuhan and rushed towards the book.
Seeing that the few of them had distanced themselves from him, Linlong smiled and began to recite a strange runic term.
In a breath's time, the Runic Formation that originally disappeared suddenly reappeared.
At that moment, Linlong pushed off the ground and flew straight towards a pillar on the right. After nearing it, he slammed his palm onto the pillar.
After that, a Runic Formation also appeared on the pillar. However, it was a lot smaller than the one before.
Linlong did not stop. He flew towards another pillar on the opposite side, and after doing the same thing, a Runic Formation also appeared on the pillar. It was also a lot smaller than the first one.
However, the three Runic Formations clearly formed an even larger Runic Formation.
After that, Linlong returned to the side of the first Runic Formation.
Then, he continued to chant the rune term from before and formed the same hand seal.
Since the four people's attention was all on the book, only at that moment did they discover something was wrong. However, the book was right in front of their eyes! Even if they discovered something was wrong, how could they have the time to pay attention to Linlong?
Zhang Yuhan, who was next to Linlong, looked curiously at him. She really didn't understand what Linlong was doing. Just now, when the Martial Lords were arguing, Linlong made a gesture towards her. Then, she quietly walked up to Linlong's side.
Also at that moment, the radiance on the three Runic Formations suddenly brightened. Not only that, there were even countless runes flashing on them.
As they flashed, the entire palace started to violently shake. Not only that, it even started to crack.
Countless rocks smashed down from the top of the palace. Even the twelve golden pillars started to crack.
That scene caused the people who were fighting over the book to stop in astonishment and turn their heads around.
The book was grabbed by one of the Ugly Fate Twin Ghosts. Because he kept the book in front of him, and also had his own brother to cover for him, the four of them didn't have a result during that period of time.
But now, the great change in the hall made them stop what they were doing.
"Brat, stop!"
"Stop!"
As they furiously roared, they all charged towards Linlong. Naturally, they could tell that the huge change was caused by Linlong.
However, it was too late. Just as they moved, the hall was completely destroyed. A huge rock fell from above and smashed right in front of them. They had no choice but to dodge to the sides.
When they came to their senses, the place where Linlong was before had completely caved in. It formed a huge hole that was nine feet long and twelve feet wide.
Just as they wanted to go over to take a look, the entire ground cracked again. Within that crack, they couldn't even control their bodies and fell straight down.
For a moment, all of them were terrified. Even the Mysterious Flame Old Monster, who was the strongest among them, felt the same.
Because they couldn't control their own fate at all.
At this moment, all of them regretted fighting over the book and letting Linlong take advantage of the loophole.
As for the book, it had already turned into countless ashes at this moment and floated down from the hands of one of the Ugly Fate Twin Ghosts.
…
On the other side, Linlong was also falling down with Zhang Yuhan in his arms.
"Linlong, we won't die, right?" Zhang Yuhan said. At this moment, she was hugging Linlong tightly, afraid that she would be buried in the ruins if she was separated from Linlong.
"Of course not." Linlong smiled slightly.
It was also at this moment that Zhang Yuhan suddenly realized that the space in front of her was distorting rapidly. After that, all the shaking actually stopped. She was hugging Linlong tightly as they stood in a small stone chamber.
"What's going on? Why did everything disappear in the blink of an eye? "Zhang Yuhan had a look of astonishment on her face.
"Because we entered the area controlled by another runic array," Linlong said.
"This …" Zhang Yuhan was speechless. It was the first time she realized how powerful the runic array was.
