After recovering, Lin Long untied the rope that bound Zhao Yu.
"Is this a side effect of the secret technique?" Zhao Yu asked curiously.
"Sort of." Linlong nodded. As for the specifics, he naturally would not tell Linlong.
"I see." Zhao Yu nodded.
After resting for a while, Linlong continued to move forward. He did not take the Level Four Energy Pill. Although his strength was greatly reduced, he could still deal with the flying insects and rune woodmen in the cave.
After another two hours, he and Zhao Yu arrived at a cave that was obviously very different from the others.
This was because there were five stone doors around the cave.
These stone doors all looked exactly the same.
"Zhao Yu, which stone door should we go to?" Linlong could not help but look at Zhao Yu.
"This … I don't know." Zhao Yu shook his head.
"In that case, let's just go in and take a look." With that, Linlong walked in front of one of the stone doors.
After pushing the stone door open, he found that there was darkness in front of him, like an endless abyss.
With one look, Linlong felt that if he walked in, he would fall into the abyss and never be able to get out.
This caused him to shrink back. Therefore, he did not directly walk in. Instead, he walked to another stone door. After pushing it open, he furrowed his brows again.
This was because this stone door was the same as the previous one, also like an endless abyss.
Immediately, he walked to another stone door. However, after walking through five stone doors, he found that behind all five stone doors was exactly the same.
"Do I have to take a gamble?" Linlong thought to himself.
He did not dare to take such a gamble, because if he was not careful, he would fall into the abyss.
At this moment, Zhao Yu, who had been in deep thought, suddenly said with joy, "I remember!"
Linlong did not ask what she remembered, but his eyes followed her as she moved.
Zhao Yu first walked in front of one of the stone doors, looked at it carefully for a while, then walked to the next stone door. This repeated until she walked to the fifth stone door, where she finally stopped.
After a while, she said to Linlong with certainty, "Junior Lin, this is the stone door?"
"Are you sure?" Linlong asked.
"I'm sure." Zhao Yu nodded.
"Alright, then let's go in."
As he spoke, the two of them stepped through the stone door. After a flash of white light, Linlong found himself in a wooden house with Zhao Yu on his right.
The wooden house looked neat and tidy, but it was empty.
What puzzled Linlong was that there was a door in each of the four directions of the wooden house.
After taking a look at Zhao Yu, Lin Long walked towards one of the doors. After pushing the door open, Lin Long found himself in front of another wooden house, which looked exactly the same.
It was the same when he opened the other three doors! A strange thought flashed through Linlong's mind.
Because of this, he did not walk out. Instead, he opened the other three doors one by one. Immediately, he confirmed one thing, and that was that his guess was correct. Behind each door was an identical wooden house.
"What's going on?" Zhao Yu couldn't help but ask.
"It seems like we've entered some sort of maze," Linlong said.
His powerful spiritual will told him that this was not an illusion.
"What should we do?" Zhao Yu asked.
"Let's enter one of the rooms to take a look." As he spoke, Linlong strode towards one of the rooms. Zhao Yu followed behind him.
As soon as they entered, the wooden door behind them immediately closed.
Then, Lin Long randomly chose a door and walked in. After that, Lin Long discovered that there were many wooden flying insects in the wooden hut that he walked in.
Linlong couldn't help but pick up a wooden flying insect beside him. Linlong found that the flying insect was no different from ordinary wooden objects.
Zhao Yu, who was beside him, also picked up one out of curiosity.
Then, she threw it casually, and the wooden flying insect broke into several pieces. There didn't seem to be anything strange about it.
As he was thinking, he suddenly heard footsteps in front of him.
"There's someone?" Zhao Yu couldn't help but be surprised.
"Let's go over and take a look." Linlong frowned and walked over.
Although there was sound, he found that his spiritual will seemed to be unable to penetrate the wooden houses, so he couldn't sense the situation in that direction.
After passing through two wooden houses, Linlong found that the wooden house he was in now was very different. There were some strange runes drawn around it.
Could it be that the secret lies in these runes? With this thought, Linlong immediately walked towards these runes.
However, at this moment, one of the doors of the wooden house suddenly opened.
Linlong and Zhao Yu immediately turned their heads to look at the door. After taking a look, Linlong's face revealed a trace of surprise. This was because this person was none other than one of Mo Linfeng's lackeys.
Could this be the core area of the secret realm? Linlong couldn't help but think of this.
Unlike Linlong and Zhao Yu, Mo Linfeng's lackey was immediately overjoyed when he saw Linlong.
"Lin Li, you actually came in," the other party said.
"Yes, thanks to you guys," Linlong said calmly.
Looking at the other party's happy expression, Linlong was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, the other party should be afraid. After all, the few of them couldn't do anything to Linlong. In the end, they relied on the Phoenix Seal to repel Linlong.
"That's good. This way, we will have a chance to deal with you and trample on you," the other party said.
"Do you think you can deal with me alone?" Linlong asked doubtfully.
"Of course," the other party said proudly.
"Could it be that your strength suddenly increased greatly, or that you control some kind of powerful flying insect?" Linlong couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, you're half right." The other party nodded.
After saying that, he raised his hand, and a few wooden flying insects suddenly appeared in the void in front of him. Different from the wooden flying insects that Linlong saw before, these flying insects obviously had spirituality. If it wasn't for the obvious wooden material on their bodies, Linlong would definitely think that they were flying insects with flesh and blood.
Looking at this scene, Zhao Yu couldn't help but ask in surprise, "What's going on? Why do your wooden flying insects have spirituality and can even fly?"
"Hehe, this is something you don't know. Anyway, today, I, Meng Xuan, will let you die in this wooden house," Meng Xuan said proudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, his wooden flying insect immediately shot towards Linlong and Zhao Yu.
Seeing these flying insects rushing over, Linlong's brows furrowed even more. This was because he discovered that these flying insects possessed powerful energy.
Linlong didn't dare to underestimate them. He immediately released his eight Gold Devouring Beetles.
The other party only had six wooden flying insects, so in an instant, the eight Gold Devouring Beetles surrounded them.
However, just when Linlong thought that the Gold Devouring Beetles would definitely be able to suppress these wooden flying insects, his expression changed again.
This was because he discovered that the Gold Devouring Beetles were actually no match for these wooden flying insects. In the blink of an eye, they were unable to retaliate.
If it wasn't for the Gold Devouring Beetles' powerful defensive abilities, they would probably have already died.
"These wooden flying insects are too powerful. Hurry up and leave!" Linlong immediately said to Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu also knew that these flying insects were powerful, so he directly rushed toward the door closest to him. As for Linlong, he couldn't be bothered with the Gold Devouring Beetles anymore. Instead, he followed closely behind Zhao Yu.
In order to protect his own Gold Devouring Beetles, Linlong left behind two to stall the wooden flying insects while the rest quickly flew over.
"Trying to escape?" Zhao Yu roared angrily. The wooden flying insects immediately chased after Linlong and Zhao Yu.
Their speed was extremely fast, and in an instant, they actually blocked the path of the Gold Devouring Beetles.
It seemed like his Gold Devouring Beetles wouldn't be able to survive! This situation caused Linlong's brows to furrow.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened. The six wooden flying insects suddenly emitted a "Ka Ka Ka" sound. Then, they actually directly stopped in mid-air.
This was a rare opportunity. Linlong didn't think too much about it and immediately ordered the Gold Devouring Beetles to fly over.
The moment the Gold Devouring Beetles entered the room they were in, the wooden flying insects clearly came to life. Then, they chased after them.
"Hurry up and run!"
After storing the Gold Devouring Beetles, Linlong immediately rushed toward the door closest to him.
Zhao Yu's speed was faster than him, and he rushed into the room corresponding to this door before him.
Meng Xuan was right behind them, so how could the two of them dare to stop? Next, they rushed toward another door. After passing through several wooden houses, the two of them only stopped when they were sure that they had shaken off the other party.
Fortunately, the two of them were fast enough. Otherwise, they would have definitely been stopped by Meng Xuan.
Linlong looked at Zhao Yu and asked, "How exactly is Meng Xuan able to control those wooden flying insects? Do you not know?"
"I really don't know." Zhao Yu shook his head.
Seeing that there were also a few wooden flying insects in this room, the two of them immediately picked one up and carefully examined it.
However, after looking at it, they discovered that these wooden flying insects were really no different from ordinary wooden objects.
"Could it be because of those runes?" Linlong thought of the strange runes that he saw in the previous room.
"It's possible." Zhao Yu nodded.
"Then we can only look around and see which wooden house has those runes," Linlong immediately said.
Immediately, the two of them left the wooden house and began to search the surroundings.
Although there was a possibility of encountering Meng Xuan, the two of them couldn't care so much. After all, if they couldn't control these wooden flying insects like Meng Xuan, they would be in danger if they encountered Meng Xuan.
Moreover, Meng Xuan wasn't the only one inside. It was possible that Mo Linfeng was also inside.
If Mo Linfeng could also control these wooden flying insects, their situation would be even more dangerous. Therefore, they naturally had to find the wooden house with those strange runes.
After walking through a few wooden houses, their eyes immediately lit up. This was because the wooden house in front of them clearly had those strange runes.
The two of them immediately looked at these runes seriously.
After looking for a while, Linlong couldn't help but furrow his brows. This was because these runes weren't Tai Qing Runes, so he couldn't understand them at all.
Linlong couldn't help but look at Zhao Yu and ask, "Zhao Yu, do you know these runes?"
"I know. These are the Mo family's Mo Yi Runes," Zhao Yu said.
"Mo Yi Runes?" Linlong asked doubtfully.
"This is a type of rune from the Mo family hundreds of years ago. Because of the rise of Tai Qing Runes, these runes were slowly eliminated," Zhao Yu answered.
"Is that so? Then do you understand these Mo Yi Runes?" Linlong asked again.
If they didn't understand them, they would be completely helpless now.
"I know a little," Zhao Yu said.
Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Linlong's face twitched. There was no difference between knowing a little and not knowing at all.
"That Meng Xuan shouldn't know about these Mo Yi Runes, right? How is he able to control those wooden flying insects?" Zhao Yu suddenly asked doubtfully.
"That I don't know. In any case, let's think of a way to understand these runes first," Linlong said.
At this moment, Zhao Yu said, "I have some information on the Mo Yi Runes with me. Do you want to take a look?"
At this moment, Linlong nodded his head. At this time, he could only make every possible effort.
Zhao Yu immediately picked up the two thick books. Although time was tight, Linlong could only bury his head in them and read.
After flipping through them seriously, Linlong couldn't help but feel a little surprised. This was because he discovered that these Mo Yi Runes were not only similar to Tai Qing Runes, but also similar to Tai Qing Runes.
This discovery immediately made Linlong perk up. As long as he found the similarities, he should be able to quickly grasp them.
During this period of time when Linlong was seriously reading, Zhao Yu also picked up one of the books. However, after flipping through it, she immediately frowned.
To be honest, she had also studied these Mo Yi Runes, but to her, these runes were obviously more difficult to understand than Tai Qing Runes.
Therefore, at this time, even if she wanted to force herself to continue reading, she couldn't focus on it.
Since she couldn't understand it herself, she could only place her hopes on Linlong.
Although Linlong clearly didn't understand the Mo Yi Runes at the beginning, for some reason, she had a lot of confidence in Linlong.
Perhaps it was because of his omnipotent performance since entering this secret realm. This thought flashed through her mind.
After a period of time, she discovered that Linlong, who had been frowning, actually revealed a trace of a smile on his face.
Could it be that he had already figured out these Mo Yi Runes? She couldn't help but be surprised.
Linlong still hadn't figured out these Mo Yi Runes, but he found a common point between the Mo Yi Runes and the other two runes.
This common point naturally boosted his confidence. He felt that as long as he put in more effort, he would definitely be able to grasp these Mo Yi Runes.
"Ta, ta, ta …"
After a period of time, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from ahead.
This sound immediately caused Zhao Yu's expression to change.
Could it be that Meng Xuan had found his way here? Such a thought immediately flashed through her mind.
Given the situation just now, if the other party came charging over, they wouldn't be able to stop him at all.
