Very quickly, they caught up to Fang Yue's group of seven.
After such an inexplicable fight, Fang Yue's group of seven did not plan to continue searching for Linlong. Instead, they returned to recuperate.
Who would have thought that Dong Sheng's group of four would catch up to them not long after?
Previously, both sides were evenly matched. They knew that if they continued to fight, both sides would suffer. Hence, they stopped in the end.
Now that Dong Sheng's group of four had caught up to them, they thought that they were going to fight to the death. Their hearts tightened.
"Dong Sheng, Zhu Geng, what do you want? Do you really want to fight to the death? "Fang Yue said coldly.
"Fang Yue, you misunderstood." Dong Sheng hurriedly waved his hand.
"Then what do you mean?" Fang Yue's group could not help but feel puzzled. They did not think that the other party was here to apologize.
"I think that we might have fallen into a trap." Dong Sheng said with a gloomy expression.
"Fallen into a trap? What do you mean? "Fang Yue asked doubtfully.
"Xue Le said that the person who chopped off his arm was not one of the seven of you," Dong Sheng said.
"Huh?" Fang Yue's group focused their attention on Xue Le.
"After the two of them left …" Xue Le pointed at the two people who had chased them to the cave entrance and said, "Senior Brother Dong sent me to follow behind them to see who was behind them. I quickly followed them, but halfway there, I was stopped by someone. As soon as that person appeared, he said that he wanted to help the two of them deal with me. I thought that he was one of your people, so I fought with him. However, due to the difference in strength, my arm was chopped off. After chopping off my arm, he purposely said that the person behind him was you, Senior Brother Fang Yue!"
After a slight pause, he continued, "After I went back, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong. The person who chopped off my arm was not one of the seven of you. Thinking that we might have fallen into a trap, we rushed over to ask you."
"Since the person who chopped off your arm was not one of the seven of us, then we really have fallen into a trap!" Hearing Xue Le's words, Fang Yue's expression naturally became gloomy.
"Think about it. Who did they offend that caused them to do this?" Senior Brother Sun on Fang Yue's side said.
At this moment, one of the two people on Fang Yue's side said, "The one who slapped me and lured us to the cave entrance wasn't one of them."
"Oh!"
Hearing this, the people at the scene felt even more that they had been tricked.
Fang Yue looked at the man and asked, "Tell me in detail, what was the situation at that time?"
We thought it was Lin Li, so we quickly followed him. Then, we met a young man who said he was Senior Brother Zhu Geng's man. Not only did he humiliate us, but he even slapped me. We were so angry that we chased after him. In the end, we met Xue Le at the entrance of the cave. By then, the young man had already disappeared. "
"We started arguing with Xue Le the moment we disagreed with him. You know what happened in the end …" Another person chimed in.
Fang Yue looked at Zhu Geng and asked, "Apart from the four of you, who else is with you?"
"No, there are only four of us in the vicinity," Zhu Geng said directly.
"In that case, we were tricked by someone," Fang Yue said with an ugly expression.
He was not the only one who was certain of this. Everyone at the scene was certain of this.
Dong Sheng, Zhu Geng, and the other two were certain that the other party had schemed against them for the secret in the stone chamber.
However, because they felt that the words and runes in the stone chamber were not to be trifled with, they did not intend to say anything.
However, because they did not know who was coveting the secret of the stone chamber, they did not know who to look for.
As for Fang Yue, he immediately thought of Lin Long.
This was because during this period of time, there was no one else other than Lin Long who had schemed against them.
Moreover, Senior Brother Sun had been fooled by Lin Long previously. Hence, he said directly, "Could it be Lin Li's doing?"
As he said this, he looked at the two people and asked, "Do you remember what that person looked like?"
The two people shook their heads and said, "It was a young man. He had something smeared on his face, so I can't remember what he looked like."
"Then, it must be him!" Senior Brother Sun said with a frown. Then, he looked at Xue Le and asked, "Xue Le, do you remember what the person who schemed against you looked like?"
"It was also a young man. His face seemed to be smeared with something too," Xue Le said while thinking.
Senior Brother Sun thought of something and said, "I think you said that he knew the Bronze Patterned Steps?"
Xue Le nodded and said, "That's right, that person knew the Bronze Patterned Steps."
"It was a young man. His strength was similar to Xue Le's, but because he knew the Bronze Patterned Steps, Xue Le was no match for him at all … This person must be Lin Li!" Senior Brother Sun said with certainty.
"It must be him!" Fang Yue said with a frown.
"Who is Lin Li?" Dong Sheng asked doubtfully.
"He is a new disciple who mastered the Rune Copper Sword and Bronze Patterned Steps in a short period of time. Because of this, a few of my brothers were killed by him. Hence, I brought Senior Brother Fang and the others here to seek revenge for me … The reason why we are here is to search for him," Senior Brother Sun said.
A new disciple mastered the Rune Copper Sword and Bronze Patterned Steps in a short period of time! Hearing his words, Zhu Geng and the others were naturally astonished.
"Since this Lin Li is suspicious, let's search the vicinity. He might still be nearby!" Dong Sheng said immediately.
After being tricked by the other party, revenge was one thing. The other was that he wanted to know what kind of words and runes were in the stone chamber.
Similarly, Zhu Geng and the others had the same thought.
"Alright, then let's search the vicinity!" Fang Yue said immediately.
Originally, they wanted to leave directly, but because of the addition of Dong Sheng and the others, their strength had suddenly increased. Naturally, they wanted to find Lin Long at once.
After all, they now had four people of the Iron sword rank.
Kid, four people of the Iron sword rank. Let's see where you can run to this time! A sinister smile flashed across Senior Brother Sun's face.
With so many people dealing with Lin Long, he was naturally happy.
How could they find Lin Long? This was because Lin Long had already left and returned to the camp after discovering that they were about to meet up.
After avoiding many ferocious beasts, Lin Long returned to the camp.
Once back at the camp, he began to study the runes and words that had been memorized in his mind.
This study lasted for three days. On the third day, he finally understood these words and runes. What made him happy was that this was clearly a method to master the various Rune Swords and Rune Steps in the School of Runes. With this method, his understanding of the Rune Swords and Rune Steps would be more thorough, and since it was thorough, it would be easier for him to master them.
Strange, if there was such a method in the School of Runes, it should be common and accessible to everyone. Why hadn't he seen it before? This question flashed across Lin Long's mind.
Naturally, no one could answer this question, and he did not think too much about it. Instead, he began to use it to master the Rune Copper Sword and Bronze Patterned Steps that he had already mastered but was not completely proficient with.
What made him happy was that this method was indeed useful. Originally, he would need to spend a lot of time to master the Rune Copper Sword, but because of this method, he could quickly master it completely.
In this case, he would also be able to master the other Rune Swords and Rune Steps very quickly in the future. Lin Long was delighted.
Next, he focused his energy on making the Rune Copper Sword. At this time, he could already learn how to master the Rune Iron Sword, but because he had not made the Rune Copper Sword, he could not touch the Iron Sword level runes. Therefore, he naturally made the Rune Copper Sword first.
To make the Rune Copper Sword, he needed materials. Lin Long did not have them on hand, so he could only spend black crystal stones to buy them from the sales hall.
Immediately, he went to the sales hall to buy the materials to make the Rune Copper Sword.
After spending some time, Lin Long created the runic bronze sword. Of course, his speed was much faster than before he had mastered that method.
After making the Rune Copper Sword, Lin Long could come into contact with the Iron Sword level runes.
However, he had to let the elder in charge of the library know that he had made the Rune Copper Sword. Otherwise, the other party would not let him release the knowledge of the Iron Sword level runes.
Immediately, Lin Long went to the library and walked up to the elder in charge of the library.
This old man was respectfully addressed as Elder Feng. He looked like a shriveled old man, but no one dared to speak rudely to him. That was because he had a silver sword hanging on his waist. He was at least a Silver-level warrior.
"Greetings, Elder Feng," Lin Long said respectfully.
Elder Feng opened his half-closed eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"
"I can already make the Rune Copper Sword," Lin Long said.
"You can already make the Rune Copper Sword?" Elder Feng's eyes could not help but widen.
Recently, Lin Long came to the library every day, so Elder Feng had a good understanding of Lin Long's background. He knew that Lin Long was a new disciple, so he was naturally surprised that a new disciple could make the Rune Copper Sword so quickly.
"Yes." Lin Long nodded.
"Good, then try it now. If you can really make it, I will let you enter the next level of the library," Elder Feng said.
The library was divided into two levels. The first level was filled with Copper Sword level rune books, while the second level was filled with Iron Sword level rune books. Because Lin Long could not make the Rune Copper Sword before, he was not allowed to enter the second level.
Lin Long immediately took out the materials to make the Rune Copper Sword in front of Elder Feng.
Soon, he had made a Rune Copper Sword.
Elder Feng immediately took the Rune Copper Sword, activated the runes on it, and made a few strokes. His face was filled with satisfaction. He nodded and said, "Not bad, you have successfully made the Rune Copper Sword. This means that you can enter the second level."
"Thank you, Elder Feng," Lin Long said happily.
After taking the Rune Copper Sword, he immediately walked up to the second level.
Not only was he talented, but he was also so hardworking. Who knew, he might even be able to master the Dark Sword in the future! This thought flashed through Elder Feng's mind as he watched Linlong leave.
Lin Long did not know what Elder Feng was thinking. After entering the second level, he began to read books on the Iron Sword level.
After spending two days, Lin Long had a deep understanding of the Iron Sword level runes. Then, he spent another two days to master the Rune Iron Sword.
He was so fast that if word got out, it would definitely make people's jaws drop.
The Rune Iron Sword in his hand was naturally the one that belonged to Peng Hongda. Hu Wenqing had already removed Peng Hongda's blood essence from it, so Lin Long could use it directly.
Otherwise, he would have to buy it himself with Mystical Crystal Stones.
After mastering the Rune Iron Sword, the next step was to make the Rune Iron Sword. As long as he made the Rune Iron Sword, he would be able to leave this world of bronze and iron.
However, there was a problem now. He did not have enough Mystical Crystal Stones.
This meant that he had to earn some Mystical Crystal Stones. Otherwise, he would not be able to practice making the Rune Iron Sword.
This time, Lin Long did not want to honestly go and hunt vicious beasts, but had the idea of Senior Brother Sun and the others. Since these people were enemies, if he did not snatch their Mysterious Crystal Stones from them, it would be a bit unfair to them.
Of course, this was also because Lin Long had mastered the Rune Iron Sword. Otherwise, he would not have dared to have such thoughts.
As soon as he made up his mind, Lin Long walked towards the south gate of the camp.
What made him happy was that there was already someone following behind him before he even stepped out of the southern gate. He immediately strode towards the southern gate with quick steps.
After walking for a while, he was sure that there were four people following him. They were all at the Bronze Sword Rank. There were no Iron Sword Rank people among them.
What was going on? Did these people have the confidence to deal with him? Lin Long could not help but be puzzled.
Soon, he realized that one of them was Zhou Yi. One of the other three was one of the seven from before. He had never seen the other two before.
These people did not follow him closely. They always maintained a certain distance.
Looks like they were just following me, and then left a mark for the others to follow. Lin Long thought to himself. How could he not see their intentions now?
After confirming that there were no Iron Sword Rank people following the four, he immediately chased after them.
Seeing Lin Long suddenly chase after them, the four of them were clearly stunned.
Naturally, they would not think of running away. Zhou Yi alone could fight Lin Long to a draw. With the addition of the other three, how could Lin Long be a match for them?
Therefore, not only did they not run, but they even surrounded Lin Long after being stunned. To them, Lin Long was simply walking into a trap.
"Lin Li, weren't you rather quick-witted previously? Why are you tired of living now?" Zhou Yi said coldly as he looked at Lin Long.
"You're wrong. It's not that I'm tired of living, but you guys are." Lin Long laughed.
"Let's not talk about this first. Let me ask you, were you the one who schemed against us to fight Dong Sheng, Zhu Geng, and the others?" Zhou Yi said coldly.
"That's right, I schemed against them," Lin Long said without hesitation.
His strength had already increased, so he naturally did not mind telling the truth.
"Good lad, my seniors were right. It really was you!" Zhou Yi said angrily.
Thinking of how Lin Long and the others had fought to the death with Dong Sheng and almost lost his life, he was naturally furious.
Then, Zhou Yi looked at the other three and said, "Attack together!"
Before he finished speaking, they had already activated the rune swords in their hands and immediately slashed at Lin Long.
