After that, Linlong continued to hunt evil spirits in the cave. He only left the sixth floor when he had almost used up all his Contribution Points.
The next day, Linlong spent a certain amount of time selling elixirs in the morning, just like the previous day, before entering the sixth floor of the pagoda.
In this cycle, a month's time gradually passed. During this period, Linlong's strength had greatly improved. His Pure Yang Skill had already reached the fifth level and he was not far from the final sixth level.
His strength had also reached the early stage of the Rank 8 Martial Master Realm. No one in the Purple Sun Sect would dare to believe such a fast speed.
During this period of time, Linlong also met Nangong Yi twice. However, Nangong Yi used some tricks to escape during the chase.
Although Nangong Yi was furious, there was simply nothing he could do.
Of course, if Linlong used various magical powers, he would naturally have a high chance of defeating Nangong Yi. However, he did not want to do so because he did not want to expose his abilities.
As for killing Nangong Yi, that was also something he did not want to do. If anything happened to Nangong Yi, the Purple Sun Sect would definitely dig three feet into the ground to find him. That would not benefit him in stealing the Spiritual Fire.
Of course, in his heart, Nangong Yi had not reached the level where he wanted to kill him.
He had never thought of having tender feelings for the fairer sex. He, Linlong, would not lose his direction because of a woman.
At this moment, Linlong was hunting evil spirits in the pagoda. However, he did not stay on the sixth floor, but entered the fifth floor.
The environment of the fifth floor was similar to the sixth floor. It was still filled with caves, but it was darker and there were more evil spirits. Their strength was also greatly increased compared to the fifth floor.
The lowest strength of the evil spirits on the sixth floor was equivalent to a Rank 4 Martial Master Realm warrior. However, on the fifth floor, the lowest strength was equivalent to a Middle Martial Master Realm warrior.
As for the fifth floor, there were very few caves that were easy to defend and difficult to attack. Warriors who entered this place would be easily surrounded. Therefore, if they did not form a team, very few disciples of the Purple Sun Sect would enter this place.
During this period of time, what surprised Linlong was that he actually did not see that strange evil spirit again. It was as if it had never existed.
"Roar roar roar …"
Suddenly, a low roar came from the front. Then, three evil spirits pounced at Linlong from the cave ahead.
The evil spirits on the fifth floor seemed to be able to make such a low growl due to their increased strength.
Lin Long immediately used the Mysterious Yang Palm Technique to fight against the three evil spirits. After spending some effort, he finally killed all the evil spirits and obtained their Pure Yang Essence.
Just as he collected the Pure Yang Spiritual Essence, another three evil spirits rushed over. Not only that, two evil spirits suddenly appeared behind him and surrounded him.
Linlong furrowed his brows and hurriedly leaned against the cave wall behind him to deal with these evil spirits.
The cave was slightly concave, so only three and a half Malevolent Spirits could attack Lin Long at once, preventing him from being attacked by more Malevolent Spirits.
After a fierce battle, Linlong once again killed these evil spirits. When he obtained their Pure Yang Spiritual Essence, they were also completely turned into ashes.
At this time, to Linlong's surprise, another five evil spirits surrounded him from both sides. Not only that, but there were also waves of evil spirits' low roars coming from not far away. Obviously, more evil spirits were rushing in his direction.
Could it be that the strange evil spirit appeared again? It had been a long time since such a situation occurred, and Linlong immediately thought of something.
Because if it was not for that evil spirit, this situation would not have happened at all.
If he continued to stay here, it was very likely that he would be surrounded by these evil spirits. If he was lucky, he might be able to kill all these evil spirits. If he was unlucky, he would die in this cave.
After thinking for a while, Linlong immediately gave up the idea of staying here to deal with these evil spirits. Instead, he rushed in the direction with the least evil spirits.
After a series of attacks, he finally killed a way out to avoid being surrounded by these evil spirits.
Of course, the most important thing was that although these evil spirits seemed to have received some kind of command, they still moved slowly before they found their prey. Otherwise, it would have been very difficult for Linlong to kill a way out.
After heaving a sigh of relief, just as he was about to run forward, his eyes narrowed. This was because he noticed that the strange evil spirit was standing among some evil spirits not far away.
At this time, it was staring closely at Linlong. There was even some kind of desire in its red and black eyes.
Sure enough, it's your doing. Linlong also stared closely at the other party.
Seemingly realizing that it could not do anything to Linlong, the evil spirit quickly disappeared.
As for the evil spirits that it had gathered, they also dispersed subconsciously.
At this time, Linlong suddenly released the spirit monkey from the Rune Space Ring.
"Spirit monkey, follow it," Linlong said in a low voice.
The spirit monkey nodded. With a look of understanding, it immediately chased in the direction where the evil spirit disappeared. As for Linlong, he followed far behind the spirit monkey.
Over the past few days, although the Spirit Monkey's strength had been progressing slowly, it had unexpectedly awakened a tracking ability. Although this evil spirit was also formed from demonic energy like the other evil spirits, its body clearly had a scent that was different from the other evil spirits. Hence, the Spirit Monkey could easily identify it.
During this period of tracking, it naturally encountered many evil spirits, but they were all killed by Linlong.
As for the spirit monkey, because the blood in its body was different from that of humans, it was rarely attacked by evil spirits. Of course, it was not that there were no attacks, but it avoided them all.
And those evil spirits that it avoided were quickly attracted by Linlong. Therefore, the evil spirits did not pose much of a threat to it at all.
After a quarter of an hour, the man and monkey, who were shuttling through the maze-like caves, stopped outside a cave.
Although they had just stopped, from afar, Linlong could clearly sense a mysterious aura in this cave that was different from other places.
After observing carefully outside the cave for a while, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Not only was this cave narrow and long, but there were also traces of people living in it.
This was because there were even long corridors, wall cabinets, and stone tables inside.
Could it be that the evil spirit was once a human? This thought even came to Linlong's mind. However, he quickly denied this guess.
Perhaps, someone had lived here before. Linlong thought to himself.
"Spirit monkey, what's the situation?" Linlong asked the spirit monkey beside him in a low voice.
"Zhi zhi zhi …"
After some communication, Linlong learned that the spirit monkey was sure that the evil spirit was in this cave, but it was not sure where it was. Moreover, it had an inexplicable fear toward the cave, so it did not dare to take another step forward.
Linlong nodded, indicating that he understood. Then, he stored the Spirit Monkey into the Runic Space Ring, and then, he gently walked into the cave.
In front of him, it should be a living room. There did not seem to be anything. After confirming this, Linlong walked along the long corridor.
The deeper he walked, the more certain he was that someone had lived here before. However, that was only in the past. Now, it was very likely that this place had become the residence of that evil spirit.
Soon, Linlong arrived at an extremely spacious hall. There were a few passageways in front of the hall that led to different places.
Just as he was hesitating about where to go, the low growls of evil spirits rang out from the passageways around him. Immediately after, dozens of evil spirits rushed into the hall at the same time.
Linlong's expression changed, and he hurriedly rushed toward a wing with its door wide open on his left. Along the way, there were naturally many evil spirits that rushed toward him. However, with his spirit fire, these evil spirits could not stop him at all.
After clearing a path, Lin Long directly rushed into the side room.
Once he entered the wing, Linlong's brows immediately furrowed even deeper. This was because he discovered that there were actually two skeletons in this wing. From the looks of it, they had died many years ago.
These two skeletons had waist tags that represented their identities as disciples of the Purple Sun Sect. It was obvious that these two were disciples of the Purple Sun Sect. A long time ago, they somehow came to this place and were trapped by the evil spirits.
This place was so difficult to find, but these two actually managed to find their way here. Linlong could not help but sigh in his heart. If not for the spirit monkey leading the way, even he would not have been able to find this place.
Were these two people trapped inside and starved to death?
Thinking of something, Linlong immediately closed the door of the wing. Once he closed it, the evil spirits outside the door quieted down. However, they did not leave. Instead, they stayed outside the wing.
Linlong could feel that the dozens of evil spirits were centered around his wing. If he went out, these evil spirits would definitely continue to surround and attack him.
At this time, Linlong also discovered the reason why the evil spirits did not rush into the wing. It was because there were runes flashing everywhere inside. It was obvious that the power of the runic formation was blocking these evil spirits.
Linlong no longer paid attention to the two skeletons on the ground. Instead, he carefully observed his surroundings.
This was because if he did not think of a way, he would very likely end up like the two skeletons on the ground.
However, after looking around, he realized that apart from some daily necessities such as a comb, bed, mirror, and so on, there was nothing else useful in this wing.
As for the so-called tunnel, it was also something that did not exist.
"Am I really trapped here?" Linlong muttered to himself.
Of course, he could also rush out. However, even if he killed the evil spirits outside, he would have to pay a huge price. Moreover, he could feel that there were still many evil spirits surging in this direction. It was simply too difficult to kill all of them.
