"Bang, bang, bang …"
Amidst such sounds, three palm energies struck the runes in front of them at the same time.
In an instant, the originally quiet runes began to flash again. At this time, the fourth person struck out with his palm again.
"Buzz …"
After this strike, the runes in front of them emitted such sounds, and then flashed even more wildly. Even the stone wall that they were on seemed to be twisting again.
"It seems that as long as Little Brother Lin hits it with his palm again, the stone wall should be able to be opened!" Many people even said at the side.
However, just when everyone thought that Lin Long would definitely hit the stone wall in front of them with his palm like the others, Lin Long suddenly bounced back and crashed directly toward Feng Dong.
"Lin Li, what are you doing?"
Seeing Lin Long do that, the surrounding people all exclaimed in shock.
At the same time, they discovered that a powerful energy surged out from the flashing runes in front of them and then surged toward Lin Long.
"Lin Li, you're courting death!" Feng Dong's eyes narrowed, and he immediately struck out with his palm toward Lin Long.
Just when everyone thought that Lin Long would definitely be attacked by Feng Dong and that energy from the front and back, Lin Long's figure flashed in a strange manner, and he directly dodged to the side.
To everyone's surprise, the energy that surged out from the runes did not follow Lin Long, but directly attacked Feng Dong.
In other words, at this unimaginable moment, it became Feng Dong who was contending with the energy surging out from the runes.
Feng Dong's expression changed greatly. Similarly, he did not expect such a thing to happen.
However, at this time, how could he retreat? He could only bite the bullet and meet it with his palm.
"Bang!"
The energy hit the ground, and a crisp sound was heard. Then, a figure was sent flying. It was really Feng Dong.
As Feng Dong was sent flying, the energy that surged out from the runes immediately disappeared.
The originally flashing runes also immediately calmed down and quickly disappeared.
At this time, some people hurriedly rushed toward Feng Dong.
"Elder Feng Dong, are you alright?" They were all very worried.
As for the others, they rushed toward Lin Long. Yang She and several other level-4 beasts even directly surrounded Lin Long.
"Lin Li, what are you doing?" Yang She asked coldly as he looked at Lin Long.
As for the others, they were also staring coldly at Linlong.
In their opinion, if it wasn't for Lin Long's sudden action, they would have already opened the Five Elements Key.
"I didn't do anything. I just saw that I was about to be plotted against. That's why I did it," Lin Long said with a faint smile.
"Sneak attack? Who plotted against you? If you hadn't listened to Elder Feng Dong, we would've opened the Five Elements Key by now! "Li Qianjing said coldly.
"That's right. If you didn't do that, we would have already walked in!"
The others also chimed in.
"You're all wrong. It would have been fine if I hadn't struck out just now. If I had, I'm afraid that I would have been seriously injured on the spot. This was all because Feng Dong schemed against me!" Linlong said as he looked at Feng Dong, who was clearly injured.
Of course, if Feng Dong hadn't been injured earlier, he wouldn't have been injured to this extent.
"Lin Li … You're slandering me … Why would I scheme against you? I was just trying to open the Five Elements Key!" Feng Dong couldn't help but point at Lin Long angrily.
"That's right. Why would Elder Feng Dong scheme against you? You should know that you're the only one who possesses the Bloodline Sword and can break through the golden runes!" Some of the Feng Family members couldn't help but chime in.
"You're wrong. There's no such thing as the Bloodline Sword being the only one that can break through the golden runes. Elder Feng Dong only said that to scheme against me," Linlong said calmly.
Upon hearing Linlong's words, Feng Dong's eyes clearly flashed with a trace of surprise. However, it only flashed for a moment, and no one else noticed it apart from Linlong.
"Nonsense! Why would I lie!?" Feng Dong said coldly.
"Whether you're lying or not, we'll know once we get someone to test it," Linlong said calmly.
"Test? That happened when the five of us tested it. Who knows what will happen if we test it again? "Someone couldn't help but worry.
"I think it's still the same as just now. However, Lin Li, don't dodge at the last moment. You have to slap your palm out. That way, there won't be any backlash," someone said.
"I also think we should try it like just now," a few people chimed in.
"That's what everyone wants. Lin Li, what else do you have to say?" Feng Dong couldn't help but feel proud.
Lad, you're still too young to fight with me. After saying that, he sneered in his heart.
The reason why he schemed against Linlong was naturally because of the conflict between him and Lin Long. Of course, it was also because he was certain that he could obtain Jinwen Sword without Lin Long.
Since he could obtain Jinwen Sword without Lin Long and deal with Zhang Chaoran, how could he let go of the opportunity to deal with Lin Long?
However, he didn't expect that Lin Long would find out and shift the blame onto him.
Fortunately, the situation was still under his control. As long as Lin Long went over to test it again, he would get someone to block Lin Long's back so that Lin Long wouldn't be able to turn around.
By then, Lin Long would have no other choice but to die.
Lin Long immediately smiled. "Since everyone is like this, I naturally have no objections …"
Then, he changed the topic. "However, I have a request, and that is for Elder Feng Dong to stand behind me … Everyone has no objections to this request, right? I'm only doing this to prevent Elder Feng Dong from scheming against me. If it's really as Elder Feng Dong said, to break through the Five Elements Key and not to scheme against me, then he shouldn't have to worry about any accidents happening."
"Yes, this request is not too much." Yang Or was the first to nod.
"I agree too." A few others nodded in agreement.
Feng Dong's face twitched when he heard that, and he didn't know what to say.
"Why, Elder Feng Dong, you don't agree? Are you feeling guilty? "Lin Long looked at Feng Dong.
"Guilty? Why would I feel guilty? I'm really trying to break through the Five Elements Key, "Feng Dong hurriedly said.
"If that's the case, please line up properly again, and Elder Feng Dong will follow behind Brother Lin Li," Yang Or said at this moment.
Then, the four from before continued to line up on the left, and Lin Long was at the back again. As for Feng Dong, he could only follow behind him helplessly.
"Elder Feng Dong, I believe you should tell me the method to break through the Five Elements Key by now, right? Otherwise, you'll suffer when I suffer the backlash later. You've already been injured twice, and if you get hit again, I'm afraid you'll die," Lin Long said to Feng Dong.
Of course, he spoke to Feng Dong through telepathy, so the others around them didn't know that he said that to Feng Dong.
"Kid, you win!" Feng Dong said coldly.
Even if Lin Long didn't ask, he would still tell Lin Long the method to break through the Five Elements Key.
"Oh, what method is that?" Lin Long's lips curled up slightly.
"It's very simple. Later on, when the four of them unleash their palm blasts, you must make sure that your palm doesn't land on the golden runes. Regardless of where you strike, the Five Elemental Key will be destroyed," Feng Dong said, gnashing his teeth.
"Thank you very much." Lin Long couldn't help but smile.
"Elder Feng Dong, why isn't it starting yet?" Someone couldn't help but ask when Feng Dong didn't give any orders.
"What's the hurry? It's about to start," Feng Dong snapped.
After a slight pause, he said, "Alright, I'll count to three now. After that, the three from the left will strike first, and the other two will follow in order."
After saying that, he began to count. When he counted to three, the three from the left immediately struck at the runes in front of them.
After the first four attacked, the situation was no different from before. The runes flashed wildly again, and the entire stone wall began to distort.
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Lin Long. In their opinion, Lin Long's palm strike was the most crucial one.
They weren't worried that Lin Long would retreat like before because Feng Dong was already behind him.
Not only was Feng Dong there, but they also arranged for a few other people to block Lin Long's back. If Lin Long made any strange movements, they would attack with their swords.
When that happened, it would be useless no matter how Lin Long retreated.
What made them heave a sigh of relief was that Lin Long didn't retreat this time. Instead, he really struck at the runes in front of him.
However, their expressions quickly changed. Lin Long didn't strike at the golden runes like what Feng Dong said. Instead, he struck at the side.
"Lin Long, what are you doing? Are you trying to harm us?" Seeing Lin Long's actions, someone couldn't help but shout in anger.
Some of them even stimulated the energy in their bodies, preparing to deal a fatal blow to Lin Long when something went wrong. They wanted to kill Lin Long, the culprit, first.
What they didn't expect was that there wasn't any backlash like before. Instead, after a muffled bang, the entire stone wall began to rotate to the left.
"Ka ka ka …"
Amidst such a sound, the stone wall quickly shattered. When all the smoke and dust dissipated, everyone realized that there was a large hole in front of them that could fit five to six people at the same time.
"Success!" For a time, they all shouted in joy.
"Why? I didn't lie to you, did I?" Lin Long said calmly.
Hearing Lin Long's words, everyone present became extremely embarrassed. That was because the facts had proven that Lin Long's method was not wrong.
Since Lin Long's method was not wrong, what Lin Long said about Feng Dong wanting to deal with him should also be true.
"I really didn't want to harm anyone. Perhaps what I did was wrong. Little Brother Lin's idea was the right one," Feng Dong hurriedly said.
He wasn't stupid, and he knew what to say now.
"It seems like it was really as Elder Feng Dong said. This was an accident, and Elder Feng Dong didn't mean to target anyone," Li Qianjing said.
Naturally, he could tell that something was fishy, but he didn't have the time to care about it. Moreover, speaking up for Feng Dong would benefit the Li family.
"That should be the case," the others said one after another.
This wasn't the time to find out the truth, but the time to rush in and snatch the treasure. Therefore, they didn't have the time to care about this.
As they said that, everyone hurriedly rushed toward the cave entrance.
The group of people quickly rushed into the cave entrance. After entering, they discovered that it was an even larger stone cave. It was about a hundred feet long and fifty to sixty feet wide. The height was about the same as the width.
Very quickly, everyone's gazes converged towards the center of the cave. That was because there was a stone platform there, and on top of the stone platform was a longsword. This longsword looked similar to Gu Wen Jian, with the only difference being that it was black in colour.
Those with good eyesight could even clearly see the three words on the sword hilt.
These three words were really "Jinwen Jian".
"It's Jinwen Jian!" Once they saw the three words clearly, most people shouted in joy.
At this moment, they didn't care so much, and all rushed toward Jinwen Jian.
Yang She and the other level four beasts took the lead. Only Feng Dong didn't move because he knew that he wouldn't be able to snatch the sword from the others even if he rushed over since he was injured. Therefore, he decided to stay where he was.
Other than him, there were two other people who didn't move. They were Linlong and He Yudan.
The reason why Linlong didn't move was because he could tell that Jinwen Jian wasn't easy to snatch. The reason why He Yudan didn't move was because she followed Linlong's lead.
Since Linlong didn't move, she naturally wouldn't move either.
Although she didn't move, she still asked curiously, "Junior Lin, aren't we going over?"
"That's right, why don't you guys go over?" Feng Dong, who wasn't far away, couldn't help but ask.
He really couldn't understand. With Linlong's strength, if he went over to snatch the sword, there was a high chance that he would get Jinwen Jian.
"Because I feel that Jinwen Jian isn't easy to snatch," Linlong smiled indifferently.
While they were talking, Yang She and the others who took the lead had already rushed in front of Jinwen Jian.
The person closest to Jinwen Jian was Yang She.
As long as he took a few more steps forward, he would be able to grab Jinwen Jian in his hands.
As long as I get Jinwen Jian, who in this mystic realm can be my opponent? By then, wouldn't everything fall into my hands? Before Jinwen Jian was in his hands, Yang She was already looking forward to it.
At this moment, a sword aura suddenly slashed towards him from the right.
It was Wan Bai who saw that he had the upper hand and slashed towards him.
If he continued to rush over, he would definitely be hit by Wan Bai's sword.
Wan Bai, you deserve to be hacked into pieces! Yang She couldn't help but roar in his heart.
However, he didn't dare to rush forward anymore. He could only rise higher and dodge Wan Bai's sword.
Although he managed to dodge, he lost the upper hand because of this dodge. Similarly, Wan Bai also lost the upper hand.
After that, Feng Feng became the closest to Jinwen Jian.
Feng Feng was naturally elated. He didn't expect that a sword aura would suddenly attack him from behind.
Oh no, it's Elder Gui! Feng Feng was instantly shocked.
Just like Yang She, if he continued to rush forward, he would definitely be hit by Elder Gui's sword.
Helplessly, he chose to dodge to the left.
After he dodged, two silhouettes directly rushed towards Jinwen Jian from his right.
These two people were Li Qianjing and Li Da.
"Everyone, thank you for going easy on me. My Li family won't stand on ceremony," Li Qianjing laughed out loud.
