"Where did you get this Runic Wooden Man from? How is it so powerful?" Du Meng could not help but look at Lin Long and ask when he saw the Runic Wooden Man standing in front of him.
"You don't need to know that," Lin Long said indifferently.
"Lin Li, what do you want to do with us?" Du Haoran couldn't help but ask.
"What do you think?" Lin Long couldn't help but smile.
"So what if you let us go? As long as you let us go, our Du Family will stand behind you. We will support you no matter what you do!" Du Meng said.
"Do you think you have a chance to bargain now?" Lin Long couldn't help but sneer.
"Our Du Family is the strongest in Mo Shi City apart from the Mo Family. If anything happens to us, you will definitely be hunted down by our Du Family. Even the Mo Family will get involved!" Du Haoran actually said at this moment.
"Tsk tsk, looks like you really don't understand the situation." Lin Long couldn't help but shake his head before directly ordering the wooden rune to make its move.
In the next moment, the wooden rune immediately grabbed towards Du Haoran.
Seeing the wooden rune grab his arm, Du Haoran couldn't help but exclaim, "What are you doing?"
"Nothing, I just want you to understand the situation," Lin Long said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Du Haoran let out a blood-curdling scream because his remaining arm was directly twisted off by the wooden rune.
In other words, from today onwards, he was a cripple without both arms.
"Lin Li, how dare you!" After roaring in anger, Du Haoran directly fainted.
On the other side, Du Xiu and Du Meng couldn't help but wipe off their cold sweat. Usually, they were the ones dealing with others, and they had never encountered such a situation.
At this moment, Du Xiu, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up at this moment.
"Very simple, I will kill you and make you pay the price!" Lin Long said coldly.
"Young Master, I know that what we did previously was wrong, but can you let us live and let us turn over a new leaf? If you let us go, our Du Family will forever rely on you and listen to your orders!" Du Xiu hurriedly said.
"Your Du Family's meager strength is nothing to me," Lin Long said indifferently.
If it wasn't for the fear that the disappearance of the Du Family would cause trouble, he would have long gotten rid of them.
After a brief pause, Lin Long immediately ordered, "Kill them!"
As his voice faded, the Runic Wooden Golem immediately attacked Du Meng. Du Meng, who was already injured, could not even withstand a single punch from the Runic Wooden Golem and directly fainted on the ground.
In the next moment, the runic wooden man punched again, and Du Meng was dead.
After that, Lin Long had the Runic Wooden Golem deal with Du Xiu. With just two punches, Du Xiu was killed.
To be honest, Linlong had wanted to leave one of them to guard the Du family. However, after thinking about it, he decided not to waste the medicine.
At that moment, Du Haoran, who had fainted on the ground, woke up.
Seeing Du Xiu and Du Meng lying unconscious in a pool of blood, Du Haoran's expression could not help but change greatly.
"Lin Li, spare me. In the future … I'm willing to do anything for you!" Du Haoran said hurriedly.
"Do you think I will let you go?" Lin Long sneered.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Runic Wooden Man threw a punch at him. This was the punch of a Level Five martialist. Hence, after the punch, Du Haoran died immediately.
Before he died, he was naturally filled with regret. If he had not offended Lin Long previously, this would not have happened at all.
After killing the three of them, Lin Long took everything from them and disposed of their corpses before leaving Yangxiang Town.
After that, Lin Long directly returned to Mo Shi City.
It was already dark when he returned to Mo Shi City. After entering his room, Lin Long took out the secret manual and began to read it seriously.
He only glanced at the first half of the manual. He knew that the Sky Tiger Sect's techniques were not suitable for him. Hence, after flipping through it, he focused his attention on the second half of the secret manual. After all, this was knowledge about runes and curses.
What puzzled him was that the second half of the manual introduced the Maniac Laughter Curse at the beginning. It was no different from the Maniac Laughter Curse that Lin Long used previously.
However, after reading it seriously, Lin Long realized that the Maniac Laughter Curse was even more complicated.
The complexity made Lin Long read it seriously again. This time, he read through the Maniac Laughter Curse several times. The more he read, the more certain he was of one thing. The Maniac Laughter Curse that he learned from the Xiang Family was completely simplified from the runes and curses in this secret manual.
This simplification seemed to be orderly. Such a thought emerged in Lin Long's mind.
However, he could not see any pattern in it at the moment.
After pondering for a long time, he still could not find the reason. Hence, he could only put this matter aside for now and continue reading.
"If you understand this secret manual and understand its principles, there is a high possibility that you can simplify some of the other runes and curses, making the originally complicated ones easier to grasp."
Lin Long saw this sentence when he flipped through the manual.
However, he did not dare to have too much hope. After all, Lin Long did not obtain his own answer from the incomplete secret manual that he bought from the auction house.
However, the more he read, the brighter Lin Long's eyes became. This was because the pattern seemed to be orderly.
As long as he grasped the method and simplified the complicated runes and curses, it would be really easy for him to grasp them.
Because of this thought, he continued reading even more seriously.
After spending a lot of time, he finally finished reading the second half of the secret manual.
After reading it, he frowned slightly because he realized that it was difficult to simplify the runes and curses with just this alone.
At this moment, an idea flashed in Lin Long's mind. He thought of the incomplete secret manual that he obtained from the auction house. He vaguely felt that these two secret manuals had something in common.
He immediately took out the secret manual.
Just like that, Lin Long began to compare the two manuals seriously. Not only that, but he also seriously pondered the differences between the two Maniac Laughter Curses and studied how the simplified one was simplified.
After some time, a smile finally appeared on Lin Long's face because he vaguely felt the pattern.
In order to completely understand the pattern, Lin Long maintained his previous focus for the rest of the time.
After some time, Lin Long finally grasped some of the patterns.
At that moment, he naturally began to experiment.
The results of the experiment immediately made him overjoyed because he could really simplify some runes and curses.
Although the simplified runes and curses were relatively simple, Lin Long knew that as long as he was given time, he would definitely be able to simplify the complicated runes and curses.
After a few days, Lin Long set his sights on the flying insect curses. He felt that he should be able to grasp the simple flying insect curses through this simplified method.
With this thought in mind, he immediately called Lei Cheng into Mo Shi City.
After seeing Lin Long in the underground casino, Lei Cheng immediately said respectfully, "May I know what business does young master have?"
"Give me those Silver-Winged Ants," Lin Long said.
Previously, he had asked Lei Cheng to take care of the 15 Silver-Winged Ants.
"Okay." Lei Cheng nodded and then took out the Silver-Winged Ants.
Although he had taken them out, Lei Cheng was still puzzled. "Young master, what do you want these Silver-Winged Ants for now?"
Although Lin Long's talent was outstanding, after these few days of interaction, Lei Cheng knew that Lin Long's current knowledge in runes and curses was inferior to his. It should be difficult for Lin Long to create the flying insect curses.
"Naturally, I want to see if I can turn them into flying insect curses," Lin Long said calmly.
After a slight pause, Lin Long said again, "Alright, you can go out now. I will call you if there is anything else."
"Yes." Although he was puzzled, Lei Cheng could only reply obediently. He then walked out and closed the door when he left.
Logically speaking, it would be better to have someone like Lei Cheng by the side to create such a flying insect curses. However, when he thought about how the method he was using now was obviously very different from the Mo family's method, it would not be good for him if word got out.
Hence, he asked Lei Cheng to leave.
Once Lei Cheng left, Lin Long took out some medicinal herbs and started to concoct a medicinal solution. Not long after, he concocted a green solution.
This solution was used to draw runes and curses on the bodies of the Silver-Winged Ants.
Next, Lin Long took out a dagger and cut the pad of his index finger. Then, he dripped a drop of blood on the body of a Silver-Winged Ant.
In order to make the Silver-Winged Ant his own flying insect, he first had to drip a drop of blood on their bodies. Then, he would draw runes and curses on their bodies. Through these runes and curses, he would be able to communicate with them spiritually and ultimately control them.
After dripping a drop of blood, Lin Long immediately picked up a rune pen and began to draw runes and curses on the Silver-Winged Ant's body.
The Silver-Winged Ant had a special kind of runes that was compatible with it. This runes and curses were recorded in the book that Mo Ran gave him previously. Hence, there was no need for Lin Long to search for them.
Of course, the runes and curses that he was drawing now were already simplified.
Drawing runes and curses was something that Lin Long was very familiar with. Hence, in just a short while, he was able to draw a rune on the Silver-Winged Ant's body.
If it was an ordinary person, perhaps they would have failed many times at this step before succeeding.
After he was done, he waited for the runes and curses to fuse together before fusing with the Silver-Winged Ant.
However, what made his expression turn ugly was that after a period of time, the drop of blood and the runes and curses did not seem to fuse at all.
In other words, he had already failed.
What was going on? Could it be that his simplification was wrong? Lin Long could not help but furrow his brows.
With this thought in mind, he immediately examined his simplified runes and curses.
After examining it for a while, he furrowed his brows again. Because his simplification did not seem to be wrong.
Immediately, he began to experiment again.
