The next time Xiao Qin came over, Linlong asked again, "Xiao Qin, how can you tell how talented you are?"
According to Xiao Qin's previous words, the level of one's talent determined whether one could comprehend cultivation talent when devouring the ferocious beast's bloodline, or even comprehend the ferocious beast's innate divine ability.
"There's a Talent Stone that can test a person's talent, but it's too expensive. Most families don't have it."
"In our Nanzhou Town, only people from nearby sects can test their talent and recruit disciples."
"Is that so?" Linlong nodded. He had wanted to take the test directly to see what talent he had, but it seemed like he couldn't do that now.
"Other than this method, you can also directly devour the ferocious beast's bloodline to test it. However, only rich people would try that. If the person who devoured the ferocious beast's bloodline didn't have any talent, it would be a waste of the ferocious beast's bloodline," said Xiao Qin.
"Previously, you said that the ferocious beast's bloodline is obtained by hunting those ferocious beasts with talent?" Linlong asked.
"That's right." Xiao Qin nodded. "Of course, you can also buy it from others. However, the Talent Bloodline is very expensive. Ordinary people can't afford it, and those high-grade Talent Bloodlines are simply priceless."
After hearing Xiao Qin's explanation, Linlong basically understood.
It seemed like it would be difficult to leave this place and return to the Yongzhou continent in a short period of time, Linlong thought to himself.
The current way to leave this place was to return along the way, but he had to increase his strength first. When he could fly, he could fly up from the original place to take a look.
However, by then, even if he flew back to the hall, he would encounter the woman in the palace dress. In other words, he had to obtain the True Phoenix Blood.
Of course, it was fine even if he didn't obtain the True Phoenix Blood, provided that he could defeat the woman in the palace dress and her scorpions. However, that seemed very difficult.
With that thought in mind, Linlong followed Xiao Qin out of the room. He wanted to familiarize himself with this world before making his next plan.
After leaving, he found a stone that emitted light in all directions on a high point in front of him. It was also because of this stone that the surroundings looked very bright.
In other places without such stones, the brightest level should be the brightness that he saw when he landed, Linlong thought to himself.
In other words, this place wouldn't be as dark as the other layers of the underground world.
After staying here for a few hours, Linlong understood that there was also night here. When night came, it would be pitch-black if there were no stones that emitted light.
"Qin, can you take me to the place where I fell? Let me see if I can remember what happened before, "Linlong said to Little Qin after finding an opportunity.
He planned to leave this place and go to a nearby sect to see how his talent was. Then, he would see if there was a chance for him to obtain Vicious Beast Blood.
Unfortunately, he could not open his Rune Space Ring and could not take out the things inside, let alone the Rune Wooden Man and the Rune Puppet.
The only thing that could be taken out was the Spatial Stone. However, because the Spatial Stone was small, there weren't many things inside.
The reason why he went to the place where he fell was to memorize the place so that he wouldn't have to search everywhere when he came back.
"Of course, I happen to be free right now." Little Qin nodded.
Very soon, Little Qin brought Linlong to the place where he fell.
"Here, you fell onto that stone. As for how you fell, Miss and I didn't see it. I'm guessing that someone riding a Vicious Beast passed by and you accidentally fell," Little Qin said.
"You bumped into a leopard when you fell. If it wasn't for the young miss asking me to help, you would've become the leopard's meal," Xiao Qin added.
"Is that so?" Linlong couldn't help but be surprised by Little Qin's words. He didn't expect it to be so dangerous.
"Little Qin, I won't forget your kindness in saving my life," Linlong immediately said.
If Little Qin didn't help and he didn't wake up, he probably would have become the leopard's meal.
"Don't take it to heart. If you really want to thank someone, thank Miss," Little Qin said with a smile.
"Your Miss treats you very well," Linlong couldn't help but say.
"Of course … Our Miss is very good to the Lu family. Young Master Lin, you can stay too," Little Qin said.
"No, I plan to go to the nearby sects to see if I have the talent. I heard from you that the closest one is the Thousand Bird Gate, right?" Linlong said.
Little Qin didn't answer Linlong's question. Instead, she said in surprise, "No way, you're leaving so soon? Someone might have accidentally dropped you. Aren't you going to wait?"
"I'm not waiting." Linlong shook his head.
Seeing Linlong's determination, Little Qin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She then said, "The closest one is indeed the Thousand Bird Gate. However, if you want to go, I suggest you go to the Dan Yang Sect that's further away. The Dan Yang Sect is much stronger than the Thousand Bird Gate and they're friendlier to newcomers."
"I'll remember that." Linlong nodded.
The two then returned to the Lu family.
After returning to the Lu family, both of them were surprised because almost everyone in the Lu family was gathered at the martial arts field.
Among them, the young and strong men were wielding sabers and sabers, while others were wielding rods and sticks.
"Uncle Ming, what's going on?" Little Qin stopped one of them and asked.
"We don't have enough beastmen to escort the goods from Fuan City, so the family head asked us to escort them so that the goods can reach Nanzhou Town safely," Uncle Ming said.
"Didn't we already find the beastmen from Fuan City?" Little Qin was puzzled.
"We did, but those beastmen backed out for some reason. So, the family head could only let the Lu family escort them," Uncle Ming said.
"But our Lu family doesn't have that many beastmen," Little Qin said.
"What can we do? It's an emergency. We went to the other two families in the town, but they said they couldn't find any beastmen. So, we can only go to make up the numbers," Uncle Ming said helplessly.
As they spoke, a middle-aged man and a young girl walked in front of them. The middle-aged man looked extremely burly.
As for the young girl, although she looked ordinary, she looked very dignified, like a lady from a wealthy family.
"This is our family head, Lu Gongyi, and the young lady," Little Qin whispered to Linlong.
"Everyone already knows about the matter. Those who are willing to escort the goods, please stand on my left," Lu Gongyi said.
Immediately, a large group of people walked to the middle-aged man's left side.
As a martial artist, Little Qin naturally walked to the left side.
As for Linlong, he followed her.
"Young Master, you don't have to go since you're not from our Lu family," Little Qin said.
"I'm just passing by. The Dan Yang Sect you mentioned seems to be in the direction of Fuan City," Linlong said with a smile.
"That's true." Little Qin nodded.
After a while, the scene quieted down.
Lu Gongyi couldn't help but nod when he saw so many people walking over. Then, he frowned and walked to the side of an eleven or twelve-year-old boy.
"Little Tian, you're not a martial artist, and you're still so young. Why are you going?" Lu Gongyi said.
"Family head, I'm also a man!" Little Tian said unwillingly.
"What? Still disobedient?" Lu Gongyi's face turned stiff.
How would Little Tian dare to say anything else? He could only walk to the other side with his head down.
Lu Gongyi started to look at them one by one. Not long after, he called another two boys to the side.
When he walked to Linlong, he couldn't help but look puzzled. "Who are you?"
"Family head, this is Young Master Lin, who was rescued by Young Miss." Little Qin hurriedly said.
"Oh, so it's Young Master Lin …" Lu Gongyi had a look of realization. "However, Young Master Lin, you're not a member of our Lu Family, so you don't have to go with us."
"Actually, I've already planned to leave the Lu family. Coincidentally, I'm heading in the same direction as you guys, so I'll go with you." Linlong smiled.
"I see." Lu Gongyi nodded.
After counting the number of people, Lu Gongyi left the Lu family with these people and headed towards Fuan City.
There were a total of more than 50 people, and about half of them were beastmen. However, there weren't many powerful people. Although Linlong couldn't activate his strength, he could still sense it with his divine sense.
"The strongest person is our family head, who has the strength of a Class 3 Tier 2 beastman. Next is Uncle Ming, who has the strength of a Class 1 Tier 2 beastman. As for the rest, they are all Class 1 beastmen." Little Qin introduced.
After a short pause, she added, "I'll go to Young Miss's place first."
After that, he walked towards Lv Yue.
Not long after, Lv Yue walked to his side.
Seeing Lv Yue, Linlong thanked her. "Young Miss Lv, thank you for saving my life."
"Young Master Lin, you're welcome." Lv Yue smiled.
After a short pause, she added, "Young Master Lu, I heard from Little Qin that you're going to Dan Yang Sect?"
"Yes, I'm going there to see if I have the talent for cultivation." Linlong replied.
"Is that so? It's a pity that we don't have talent stones. Otherwise, Young Master Lin wouldn't have to go so far … Young Master Lin, do you remember what happened before?" Lv Yue asked.
"No, I can't remember. Maybe I fell too hard." Linlong smiled. Soon after, he thought of something and asked, "You sent so many people to escort the goods. Will there be any danger along the way?"
This was what he wanted to ask Little Qin previously, but he forgot to ask her.
"There will be danger. There will be bandits along the way. Previously, with those beastmen escorting the goods, there won't be any problems. Without them, there will be trouble. That's why father sent so many people. This batch of goods is very important to our Lv family, so we can't afford to lose it. "Lv Yue said.
Linlong nodded to show that he understood.
After rushing for two days, the group saw the Lv family members who were escorting the goods from Fu An City.
After a short rest, the group set off for the Lv family.
Including the people from before, they now had more than 80 people.
Seeing that Linlong was still in the group, Lv Yue couldn't help but walk over with Little Qin.
"Young Master Lin, the journey will be very dangerous. You're not from the Lv family, so it's best that you don't come with us." Knowing what Linlong meant, Lv Yue said.
"Miss Lv, you saved my life, so it's only right for me to escort this batch of goods back with you." Linlong said.
Linlong was someone who knew how to repay kindness, so he naturally wouldn't abandon the Lv family at such a time.
"Young Master Lu, we appreciate your kindness, but you're not a beastman, so there's no need for you to return with us." Lv Yue said with a frown.
"Miss Lv, seeing that my benefactor is in danger, if I sit back and do nothing, I won't be able to eat and sleep well in the future." Linlong said with a solemn expression.
"Since that's the case, then I'll have to thank Young Master Lin." Seeing Linlong's insistence, Lv Yue could only say this.
After walking for half a day, the group arrived at a valley. Although they knew that it would be very dangerous to pass through this valley, it was a shortcut. If they took a detour, it would take too much time and affect the goods. Therefore, they braced themselves and passed through this valley.
When they reached the center of the valley, a group of people suddenly surrounded them from both sides of the mountain.
There weren't many people in this group, only about 40 of them. However, the beastman aura they emitted made the Lv family's expression change.
The leader of this group was a burly man with a face full of beard. He held a big axe in his hand and swaggered towards the Lv family's group with two men.
"Wu Feng, it's you!" Seeing this person, Lv Gongyi's face sank and said coldly.
"Hehe, Wu Feng, I'm just a nobody, but Lv family's head actually knows me." Wu Feng laughed.
"Wu Feng, who doesn't know that you're a famous mountain bandit near Fu An City!" Lv Gongyi sneered.
"Patriarch Lu, let's not beat around the bush. This Wu is here for this batch of goods. If you know what's good for you, leave them behind and we will let all of you leave safely. If you don't, then don't blame me for being impolite!" Wu Feng said. "You are right.
"Wu Feng, these goods are the lives of my Lv family. Do you think I'll give them to you?" Lv Gongyi gritted his teeth.
"Since that's the case, I'll have no choice but to kill!" Wu Feng raised the axe in his hand and shouted, "Kill!"
As soon as his voice fell, his men immediately rushed towards the Lv family's group. Wu Feng also directly swung the axe in his hand towards Lv Gongyi.
In an instant, the scene became extremely chaotic.
Although the other party was a beastman, the Lv family had more people and they were willing to risk their lives, so the situation was actually in a deadlock.
As for Wu Feng's side, he didn't have any advantage against Lv Gongyi.
The situation seemed to be advantageous to the Lv family, but with the addition of one of the two people behind Wu Feng, the situation was completely different.
These two people didn't make a move before, and after a period of time, one of them suddenly joined in.
This was a middle-aged man with a calm expression. He didn't help Wu Feng, but directly attacked the other people of the Lv family.
As soon as he attacked, the people of the Lv family couldn't fight back at all. In this way, the balance was immediately broken.
Looking at this person, Lv Gongyi's expression changed greatly because he discovered that the other party's strength was actually above his.
Wu Feng didn't have such a subordinate before, so where did this person come from? He was very puzzled.
After knocking down the people of the Lv family, the person did not continue to kill, but stopped.
At this time, Wu Feng at this time, at this time, at this time, at this time, he said proudly, "Lv Gongyi, you are not a match for us. Hurry up and surrender, otherwise, you will suffer more losses."
"That's impossible!" Lv Gongyi said coldly.
"In that case, then don't blame us for not being polite!" Wu Feng's expression involuntarily turned cold.
The person who had just stopped just now started to attack again.
At this time, he just happened to be in front of Lin Long. Lin Long was currently only a peak-level beastman, so how could he be a match for this person? Therefore, when the other party attacked, he directly retreated.
However, to the middle-aged man's surprise, the sword in Lin Long's hand actually did not fly out of his hand.
Surprised, he could not help but look at Lin Long a few more times, then then slashed with his sword again, and this sword was obviously stronger than before.
"Bang!"
This time, the sword Qi directly hit, and this time, Lin Long was directly slashed out.
However, the middle-aged man's expression quickly changed again. He discovered that the sword in Lin Long's hand was still not slashed out of his hand. Not only that, but he also quickly stood up, looking like he was not injured at all.
He wasn't the only one who was surprised. Lv Yue and Xiao Qin, who were looking at Linlong, were also surprised. They originally wanted to help Linlong, but the people around him were pestering them, so they couldn't help him at all.
They did not expect that Lin Long would be able to withstand two moves and be fine.
However, they did not think that Lin Long could continue to hold on, after all, the other party was a peak-level beastman.
"Boy, you are quite difficult to deal with, but I don't think you can withstand a few more moves," the middle-aged man with a calm expression said coldly, and as soon as his voice fell, he raised the long sword in his hand again.
It was impossible for Lin Long to take a level-four Qi-strengthening Pill, so he might as well take a level-five Qi-strengthening Pill and try! With this thought in mind, Lin Long immediately took out a level-five Qi-strengthening Pill and swallowed it.
Lin Long's level-five Qi-strengthening Pill was obtained from killing a level-five warrior, and it was placed in the Space Stone. Otherwise, he would not have been able to take it out at all.
Now, Lin Long could only try his luck and see if the level-five Qi-strengthening Pill could make him stronger.
He did not have the Tranquil Pill at the moment, because it was in the Rune Space Ring.
However, because there were no side effects from taking the level-four Qi-strengthening Pill before, he dared to try it now.
What made him relieved was that there were no side effects after taking it.
It should be because the energy of these Qi-strengthening Pills could not be fully stimulated in this world, so his body could withstand it, and he did not need to take the Tranquil Pill. Lin Long quickly understood.
"Boy, what did you swallow?" Seeing Lin Long's action, the middle-aged man, who was about to slash with his sword, could not help but be stunned.
"Eat something to relieve my nervousness," Lin Long said with a faint smile.
"Boy, you're making fun of me!" Hearing Lin Long's words, the middle-aged man could not help but fly into a rage. The long sword in his hand, which had long been ready, once again attacked Lin Long.
This time, the power of the sword was clearly incomparable to the previous ones.
Danger!
Seeing this, Lv Yue and the others could not help but worry for Lin Long.
