What he did not expect was that Linlong did not fight him head-on this time. Instead, he dodged with his body technique and even used the Profound Wind Sword Technique to counterattack.
The Profound Wind Sword Technique was even more unpredictable than the Spirit Serpent Sword Technique. Coupled with Linlong's body technique, Sima Jian found it difficult to adapt.
Because of this, the two of them seemed to be evenly matched.
However, as time passed, Linlong was still at a disadvantage. At some point, he was sent flying by Sima Jian's sword.
After using the Bloodline Sword, Sima Jian's strength was comparable to an early-stage level-3 beast, which was why Linlong was at a disadvantage.
"Kid, you're finished!" Sima Jian could not help but gloat as he watched Linlong stumble to his feet after being sent flying by his sword.
In his opinion, Linlong was merely relying on the silk armor to hold on. As long as he attacked Linlong a few more times, Linlong would not be able to retaliate.
"Linlong is definitely going to lose!" The people on the other side of the river also had the same smile on their faces.
Then, Si Majian attacked Linlong with his sword again.
Linlong looked like he was barely able to block the attack.
In the end, he was sent flying by Sima Jian again.
Bang, bang, bang …
Following that, Lin Long was struck consecutively. After three sword strikes, Lin Long was completely unable to stand up.
"Kid, let's see how you're going to hold on," Sima Jian said smugly as he strode toward Linlong.
Since he was sure that Linlong was already seriously injured, he did not even look at Linlong. Instead, he waved at the people on the other side of the river.
However, at this moment, Linlong, who was lying motionless on the ground, suddenly moved. He bounced up and attacked Sima Jian with his sword.
Due to the close distance and the fact that Sima Jian was looking at the other side of the river, he could not block Linlong's sword in time.
Pfft …
With a loud sound, Linlong's longsword pierced through his body.
"You … How are you still so strong?" Sima Jian's eyes widened as he looked at Linlong.
He was not the only one. The people on the other side of the river also widened their eyes. They did not expect Linlong to be able to counterattack in such a manner after being attacked by Sima Jian.
Based on the previous situation, Linlong should not have been able to stand up.
Linlong did not answer him. Instead, he drew his sword back.
The moment the sword was drawn, Si Majian collapsed to the ground. Lin Long's sword had killed him instantly.
The reason why Linlong was able to turn defeat into victory was naturally due to his powerful physique. Of course, it was also related to Sima Jian's carelessness. If Sima Jian had been more careful, he wouldn't have been killed by Linlong so easily.
After taking Sima Jian's Space Ring, Lin Long swallowed a top-grade healing pill and sat down to meditate.
"What should we do?"
For a time, some of the people on the other side of the river couldn't help but say such things.
Sima Jian was dead, and Xiong Guoshan had no way of returning. They were like a group of dragons without a leader.
"Don't be afraid. That brat Linlong is already seriously injured. There's no way for him to fly across this river."
"Yes!"
"Even if he flies over, we can still smash him to death with so many of us!"
"I hope he can fly here so that we can get the White Lotus Fruit from him!"
…
After some discussion, most people even hoped that Linlong could fly over so that he could get the White Lotus Fruit.
Linlong didn't pay attention to them and focused on meditating to heal his injuries.
After spending most of the day, his injuries had mostly healed. However, when he thought about how many people there were on the other side of the river, he didn't rush over. Instead, he spent some more time.
When his injuries were almost healed, he came to the river.
"Linlong is really coming over!" As soon as they saw Linlong walking to the river, the people on the other side of the river were naturally overjoyed.
But they soon discovered that something was wrong because Linlong didn't seem to be seriously injured.
"Why doesn't he look injured? Was he not injured before?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
"How could he not be injured before!?" Someone immediately retorted.
"If that's the case, could it be that his injuries have almost healed in such a short time?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
"Who knows?"
… …
While the people on the other side of the river were guessing, Linlong had already stimulated the Mysterious Wind Eagle's innate ability and flew towards the other side of the river.
Soon, he landed in front of those people.
"Everyone, attack together!" A person from the Heavenly Silkworm Sect immediately pointed at Linlong and shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight people immediately rushed towards Linlong.
Linlong, who had already taken out the Bloodline Sword, directly used the Profound Wind Sword Technique to attack those people.
"Ahhh …"
Urgent screams rang out. The three people at the front were directly injured by the Bloodline Sword. Due to the huge difference in strength, they actually couldn't withstand a single strike from Linlong.
The remaining people immediately stopped when the three of them were injured. They could already see that Linlong wasn't injured at all.
"Anyone who obstructs me will die!" Linlong said coldly.
With that, Linlong strode forward.
In an instant, the people surrounding the two of them retreated one after another. Then, a path suddenly appeared in front of Linlong.
The strength that Linlong displayed was too powerful, so no one dared to take the risk.
However, when Linlong reached the crowd, someone still made a move. Furthermore, it wasn't just one person, but three people. The three people simultaneously attacked Linlong with their swords.
In a split second, Linlong directly swept his sword towards the three people.
Due to his powerful Divine Will, he could sense the moment these people moved. Otherwise, he would definitely have acted slower than now, which would have given these people a chance to take advantage of him.
Bang, bang, bang …
After three muffled sounds, the three people were directly sent flying by Linlong's attack.
Not only were they sent flying, but they also suffered quite a lot of injuries.
In this way, no one dared to attack Linlong anymore.
Just like that, Linlong passed through these people and walked out of the stone cave.
He had already obtained the White Lotus Fruit. Next, he would continue to look for the Dark Blood Fruit. When the time was right, he would leave the secret realm with these people and then take advantage of the chaos to leave Fragrant Frost Mountain. Linlong planned in his heart.
He knew that he would definitely be attacked by the three sects when he left the secret realm after killing Zheng Ge, Si Majian, and the others. Therefore, he naturally had to secretly leave Fragrant Frost Mountain before they found out about this.
He didn't know that the Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master had already discovered that he had killed Yang Tianyi.
Immediately, Linlong released the bamboo rat and continued to search for the Dark Blood Fruit in the secret realm.
…
At this time, the Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master arrived at the entrance of the secret realm.
"Sect Master, why are you here?" Seeing the Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master personally come, the people of the Heavenly Silkworm Sect were naturally surprised.
"Tian Yi was ambushed and killed!" The Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master said with a gloomy expression.
"What? Tian Yi was ambushed and killed?" Hearing this, the people of the Heavenly Silkworm Sect widened their eyes.
Yang Tianyi was their Heavenly Silkworm Sect's future. How could they not be surprised that he was ambushed and killed?
"From the effects of the Fate Chart on his body, the person who killed him can activate the Sirius Cat's Origin Talent. Do you know who among the three sects has the Sirius Cat's Origin Talent?" The Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master said.
"The Sirius Cat's Origin Talent?"
After a slight pause, someone shouted, "It's Core Yang Sect's Linlong!"
"Linlong? Is he a disciple of the Core Yang Sect who just rose to fame? "The Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master frowned.
"No, he is a new disciple who just entered the Core Yang Sect. I heard that his strength is at most an early-stage Grade 2 beast warrior," that person said.
"If he's only an early-stage rank 2 beast, how did he kill Tian Yi?" Many people from the Heavenly Silkworm Sect exclaimed.
"Tian Yi probably suffered some serious injuries, and then that guy took the opportunity to attack him," someone guessed.
"No." However, the Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master shook his head. "The information I obtained from the recording is that Linlong defeated Tian Yi with his own abilities!"
"What? He defeated Tian Yi with his own strength?" Hearing that, the people from the Heavenly Silkworm Sect were shocked.
"Could it be that his hidden strength isn't that of an early second-grade beast?" Someone immediately said.
"That should be it." Many members of the Heavenly Silkworm Sect nodded in agreement.
"I'll go ask Ma Wangshan and see what's going on!" The Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master said coldly.
Then, he led the Heavenly Silkworm Sect's people towards the Core Yang Sect's side.
"Sect Master Fu, why did you personally come to Fragrant Frost Mountain?" The grand elder of the Core Yang Sect asked when he saw the Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master.
The Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Sect Master's surname was Fu Yang, so he was addressed as Sect Master Fu.
"Grand Elder Yan, my disciple, Yang Tianyi, died in the secret realm. Do you think I should come over?" Fu Yang said coldly.
"What? Your Heavenly Silkworm Sect's disciple, Yang Tianyi, died?" The grand elder of the Core Yang Sect immediately cried out in surprise.
His surname was Yan Cheng, so Fu Yang addressed him as Grand Elder Yan.
He wasn't the only one surprised. The other members of the Core Yang Sect were also surprised.
They naturally knew Yang Tianyi's strength. In their opinion, even if everyone else in the secret realm died, Yang Tianyi probably wouldn't die because Yang Tianyi was the only one among all the disciples who could fly.
"That's right. Moreover, the one who killed him is someone with the Celestial Wolf Cat's Origin Talent!" Fu Yang said coldly.
"Someone with the Celestial Wolf Cat's Origin Talent? Could it be our Dan Yang Sect's Linlong? "Hearing Fu Yang's words, many members of the Core Yang Sect cried out in surprise.
"But that can't be right. Linlong is only an early-stage second-rank beast. How could he have killed Yang Tianyi?" Yan Cheng couldn't help but wonder.
"That's right. He only has the strength of an early-stage second-rank beast. How could he have killed Yang Tianyi? Even if Yang Tianyi was injured, it would still be difficult for him to kill him."
"Sect Leader Fu, are you mistaken?"
The other members of the Core Yang Sect chimed in.
Linlong was a disciple of the Core Yang Sect. If he really killed Yang Tianyi, it would definitely cause a conflict between the two sects. Naturally, they didn't want to see that happen.
"There's no mistake. From the image sent back by the Life Chart Talisman, we can see that the person who killed Taiyi used the Celestial Wolf Cat's Origin Talent. Moreover, the person who used the Celestial Wolf Cat's Origin Talent has the strength of a peak second-rank beast!" Fu Yang said.
"Peak second-rank beast?" The members of the Core Yang Sect looked at each other when they heard that.
Fu Yang looked at Yan Cheng and said, "No matter what, when Linlong comes out, I'll capture him first and interrogate him in detail. What do you think?"
"This …" Yan Cheng was a little hesitant.
"Great Elder Yan, I'm losing the future of the Celestial Silkworm Sect. If you can't even do this, then my Celestial Silkworm Sect can only declare war on your Core Yang Sect!" Fu Yang said coldly.
Hearing Fu Yang's words, Yan Cheng's forehead couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Then, he said helplessly. "Alright then."
Fu Yang said again, "I hope that when the time comes, you won't protect him and give him a chance to escape!"
After saying that, Fu Yang brought his people back to the original place.
As soon as Fu Yang and the others left, someone from the Core Yang Sect asked, "Great Elder, did Linlong really kill Yang Tianyi?"
"How would I know?" Yan Cheng frowned.
"I think that's possible. After all, Linlong has been concealing his strength several times in the past!" someone who knew about Linlong said.
"Yes, I also think it's possible." Many people also agreed.
"Great Elder, what should we do then?" Soon after, someone asked.
"What should we do? Naturally, the people from the Xiantian Silkworm Sect will take Linlong down. Moreover, it's best not to let the people from the Heavenly Silkworm Sect know about it. When we get him, we'll ask him in detail and see what exactly is going on!" Yan Cheng said in a deep voice.
What they didn't expect was that after a while, their sect master, Ma Wangshan, also came over.
"Sect Master, why have you come as well?" Seeing Ma Wangshan come over, the people from the Pill Yang Sect couldn't help but ask.
"Why did you use the word 'also'?" Ma Wangshan said in a deep voice.
"Because the sect master of the Heavenly Silkworm Sect was here just now and came to cause trouble for us. He said that their disciple, Yang Tianyi, was killed by our disciple, Linlong." Someone immediately said.
"Hmm, is that so?" Ma Wangshan's face revealed a trace of surprise.
"Indeed." Grand Elder Yan Cheng also said as he walked over.
"Then let me tell you now, the strongest disciple of our Dan Yang Sect, Sima Jian, has also fallen!" Ma Wangshan said.
"What?" Hearing his words, the people from the Dan Yang Sect all widened their eyes.
"Sect Master, can you tell who killed Sima Jian?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
"I can't tell. Our Dan Yang Sect's Fate Chart isn't that powerful." Ma Wangshan shook his head.
"Could this matter be related to the death of the Heavenly Silkworm Sect's Yang Tianyi?" Someone asked doubtfully.
"That I don't know." Ma Wangshan shook his head and then asked, "What happened to Yang Tianyi? Tell me in detail."
Yan Cheng immediately recounted what Fu Yang had just said.
"In other words, Yang Tianyi was most likely killed by our Dan Yang Sect's disciple, Linlong, and Linlong has the strength of a peak second-rank beast practitioner?" Ma Wangshan couldn't help but be shocked.
As he said this, he couldn't help but recall the first time he saw Linlong.
