Zhu Xian's face quickly revealed a surprised expression because when the Black Ink Stone in Linlong's hand approached the stone wall, the runes on it seemed to have come to life and began to flash.
Then, in just a few breaths of time, the stone wall in front of Linlong emitted cracking sounds. Amidst such sounds, the stone wall quickly cracked open to reveal a door.
The two of them saw that there was a passage that extended forward for an unknown distance. It was also very dark and wide.
"Where does this lead to?" Zhu Xian couldn't help but ask.
However, how could Linlong answer him?
Linlong's gaze quickly shifted to the stone wall on the right side of the passage because he realized that there seemed to be something drawn on the stone wall.
Taking a closer look, he realized that it was a map of the entire graveyard. From the door to this place, everything was clearly drawn on the map.
Looking ahead, they realized that this passage would eventually lead them into a river, and it seemed that they wouldn't have to walk too far.
"Looks like we can get out of this passage!" Seeing this situation, Zhu Xian, who was also behind Linlong, couldn't help but exclaim in joy.
After a short pause, he seemed to have thought of something and shouted in joy. "I remember now! This seems to be Qing Jianhe in the northwest of our camp.
Qing Jianhe, it just so happens to be in the northwest, which is also the direction that we chased after previously. Looks like it's Qing Jianhe, Linlong thought to himself.
"Eh, where does this passage lead to?" Zhu Xian asked curiously.
On the map, in the middle of this passage that might lead to Qing Jianhe, there was a passage that seemed to lead to the right. However, the map didn't outline it and it only extended a little before it broke off.
"We can go over and take a look," Linlong said.
"Sure, let's go over and take a look," Zhu Xian immediately said.
He naturally wanted to leave immediately, but he was afraid that the passage would lead to some treasures. If he left just like that, wouldn't he regret it for the rest of his life?
With that said, the two of them walked forward. Zhu Xian naturally maintained a certain distance from Linlong.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the middle of the passage. There was indeed a passage that led to the right. After a short pause, Linlong walked toward the passage on the right.
He didn't sense any danger here, so he naturally wanted to go over and take a look.
Zhu Xian, who was afraid that there would be treasures here, naturally followed behind him.
After walking for more than two hundred feet, they discovered that the road ahead was blocked. It was a stone wall, and the stone wall was also sketched with the same runes. Along the way, there were no runes on the passage. Looking at these runes, Zhu Xian guessed that this stone wall should be able to be opened.
Then, he said to Lin Long, "Brother Lin, use that Black Ink Stone of yours to take a look."
Linlong didn't say anything. Instead, he took out the Black Ink Stone that he had kept earlier. Indeed, as soon as he leaned against it, the stone wall slowly opened up.
To their surprise, there was still a path ahead, but it was extremely dark. Even with Linlong's extraordinary eyesight, he could not see ahead. He only felt that the path ahead seemed to be hidden in darkness.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Xian, who had already taken a step forward, immediately stopped.
"There seems to be something strange going on here," he said.
It was also at this moment that he suddenly saw a black shadow appear in front of him. This black shadow had originally blended into the darkness, but because of its sudden movement, he saw it.
This black shadow seemed to be walking towards them. Soon, Zhu Xian clearly saw that it was a skeleton. It was different from ordinary skeletons, as there were many runes carved on it.
This skeleton wouldn't attack people like the giant spiders from before, right? With this thought, Zhu Xian subconsciously retreated. The giant spiders from before had left him with a lingering fear.
Just as he retreated, the skeleton suddenly sped up, and it fiercely grabbed at Linlong.
At the same time, Linlong could feel the energy contained in its body.
Linlong hurriedly slashed out with his sword, and the sword energy quickly attacked the skeleton's withered claws.
The energy hit, and Linlong was directly sent flying.
Seeing that Linlong had suffered a great loss, Zhu Xian immediately turned around and ran. At the same time, he discovered that there seemed to be many similar black shadows inside. If they rushed out together, he would not be a match for them. Therefore, he naturally turned around and ran.
As for Linlong, he directly bounced off the ground and ran wildly behind him. As he was already prepared, the skeleton's attack only injured him slightly.
He also discovered that there were many black shadows inside, and they seemed to be similar skeletons. He could not even handle one skeleton, let alone the others. How could he possibly escape? Therefore, he naturally turned around and ran.
After running out of the junction of the passage, the two of them turned around and looked back. After this, they both breathed a sigh of relief. This was because the skeletons behind them did not chase after them.
"Let's quickly leave this place and tell the situation inside to Teacher Yao Hongsheng and the others. When they come over, they will be able to uncover the true nature of this tomb," Zhu Xian said to Linlong.
"That's a good idea." Linlong nodded.
Immediately, the two of them continued in the direction of Qing Jianhe.
After walking for a while, the two of them arrived at the end of the passage. Here, they discovered that there was already water surging into the passage.
The reason why there was no water surging into the front part of the passage was definitely because there was some kind of energy blocking the water. Now that there was water surging in, it naturally meant that there was no such energy here. In other words, the two of them could be considered to have left the vicinity of the tomb.
At this time, Zhu Xian suddenly walked in front of Linlong.
"Senior Brother Zhu Xian, what's the matter?" Linlong asked calmly.
From the beginning until now, he had been holding the broken leg of the giant spider in his hand.
"Lin Li, hurry up and give me a Black Ink Stone!" Zhu Xian said coldly.
"Sorry, I won't give you a piece," Linlong said.
"Then I can only deal with you!" Zhu Xian sneered.
"Oh, aren't you afraid of the broken leg of the giant spider in my hand?" Linlong frowned.
"Afraid? Why should I be afraid? You're just lying to me. From the start, only the one that killed Zhang Cheng was useful. Otherwise, you would have attacked me along the way … Yes, let's not talk about other things. Just based on the skeleton that we encountered previously, if your broken leg was useful, you would have used it to deal with it, right? "As he said this, a smile appeared on Zhu Xian's face.
He felt that his guess was right. Otherwise, this situation would not be like this.
Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Lin Long directly threw away the severed leg of the giant spider in his hand, before he indifferently smiled and said, "You're right. Other than the one used to kill Zhang Cheng, the rest are useless."
"Why is that?" Zhu Xian could not help but ask.
"The reason why the broken leg previously had that kind of effect was because the giant spider had just died. In that short period of time, its legs still had energy within them. Zhang Cheng did not know that he had charged over, so I naturally used it to deal with him."
"And after that, the energy of the broken legs gradually disappeared. When you later obtained the broken leg, the energy had almost completely disappeared. Hence, you naturally could not test anything."
Linlong said.
"How do you know so much? Didn't you just enter our runes department?" Zhu Xian could not help but ask again.
In his opinion, even a teacher like Yao Hongsheng did not know. How could Linlong know? He was naturally very puzzled.
"I'm not going to tell you this," Linlong said calmly.
The reason why he knew was because of his rich experience. Moreover, he was beside the dead giant spider at that time. Through his powerful divine will, he could sense that there was still such energy in its body.
However, he naturally could not be bothered to tell Linlong the reason.
"It's fine if you don't want to say it, but you must hand over a Black Ink Stone … No, hand over both Black Ink Stones!" Zhu Xian could not help but say again.
After confirming that the broken leg was useless, why would he be afraid of Linlong?
"I'll say it again. I won't hand it over," Linlong said with a slight smile.
"Brat, you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin!" Zhu Xian said coldly. After saying that, he pointed the runic stone sword in his hand at Linlong.
At the same time, Linlong also picked up his own runic wooden sword.
The two immediately confronted each other.
"Linlong, your runic wooden sword is no match for me at all. Do you really want to die?" Zhu Xian said with some doubt.
Linlong clearly only had a runic wooden sword, but he was so calm. Zhu Xian was naturally surprised. He did not know what gave Linlong such courage.
Surprise was surprise. He would not stop attacking Linlong just because he was surprised.
In the next moment, the runic stone sword in his hand stabbed towards Linlong.
Unexpectedly, Linlong did not intend to fight him head-on. Instead, he used the Wood Grain Steps to fight.
"It's just the Wood Grain Steps. You're just showing off in front of an expert!" Seeing Linlong use the Wood Grain Steps, Zhu Xian naturally mocked.
At that moment, he also activated his Wood Grain Steps. In the next moment, he directly attacked Linlong with his sword, causing him to retreat uncontrollably.
"Brat, now you know how powerful I am!" Zhu Xian was even more pleased. Then, he chased after Linlong.
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a gust of energy coming from behind him.
What's going on? He could not help but be shocked. He hurriedly tried to dodge to the side, but the gust of energy from behind did not give him such a chance. It directly pierced through his body.
"Who … Who is it …" Zhu Xian, who was indignant, used all his strength to turn around. After taking a look, a look of disbelief appeared on his face. This was because the person who suddenly attacked him was a skeleton.
While he was fighting with Lin Long, this skeleton had silently appeared behind him and took advantage of the moment when his attention was on Lin Long to suddenly kill him.
However, this was clearly not the boundary of the cemetery. Why did the skeleton still chase after him? This question flashed through his mind at the last moment before he died.
Who could answer him now?
At the same time, Linlong had already rushed forward. By the time Zhu Xian was completely killed, he had already rushed into the Qing Jian River. The ice-cold water made him immediately heave a sigh of relief. This was because he was sure that he had completely left the cemetery behind him.
What made him even more relieved was that the skeleton behind him did not chase after him.
The reason why he was not in a hurry to deal with Zhu Xian just now was because he discovered that the skeleton had followed him. The skeleton had hidden itself very well. If it were not for his powerful Divine Sense, he would not have discovered it at all.
Zhu Xian could not discover the skeleton, so he naturally did not discover it when it rushed over while they were fighting fiercely. As for Linlong, it was also at that time that Zhu Xian exposed his back to the skeleton through his movement technique. This was why Zhu Xian was easily killed by the skeleton.
Knowing that he was not a match for the skeleton, Linlong naturally rushed out when the skeleton killed Zhu Xian. Fortunately, the skeleton did not chase after him.
Soon, Linlong emerged from the water and came ashore.
The surroundings were quiet, and there seemed to be no fierce beasts around.
It was really surprising that the exit was actually in such a place. Linlong thought to himself.
He memorized the location and planned to come back to check it out when he had the strength.
He then left this place and returned to the camp.
Unfortunately, it would be great if he could get Zhu Xian's Space Ring just now. On the way back, Linlong naturally felt a little regretful.
At that time, he could not grab Zhu Xian's Space Ring. Otherwise, he would not have to worry about not having enough Mysterious Crystal Stones to buy the Runic Stone Sword.
As for Zhang Cheng's Space Ring, which he had killed before, Zhu Xian had also obtained it, so he did not get the Mysterious Crystal Stones from Zhang Cheng.
Not long after, Linlong returned to the camp. At this time, the camp was quiet. It seemed that the giant spiders that rushed out of the cemetery had also been killed, and they did not cause any waves in the camp.
Linlong did not want to tell anyone about this, so after returning to the camp, he went directly to find Uncle Hu.
He was going to give him a Black Ink Stone and ask him to remove the blood essence on the Runic Stone Sword for him.
Not long after, he came to the door of Uncle Hu's room. What made him frown was that the other party's door was closed.
Is he not inside? Thinking so, Linlong walked forward and knocked on the door.
After knocking a few times, there was no response. At this time, a middle-aged man walked out of the room next to him.
When he saw Linlong knocking on the door, he said to him, "Little brother, Uncle Hu went out yesterday and has not returned yet."
"When will he come back?" Linlong frowned slightly.
"I don't know. Sometimes he comes back very quickly, and sometimes he doesn't even see his shadow for ten days or half a month." The other party replied.
"Is that so?" Linlong was a little speechless.
However, he knew that it was useless to be impatient, so he immediately said, "Thank you."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
On the way back, he heard people talking about what happened in the Stone Woodmen cemetery.
Linlong immediately walked up and asked with a smile, "Two senior brothers, what happened today? I was on the other side and just came back, so I don't know. Can you two senior brothers tell me about it?"
