Linlong's expression turned even uglier because the four of them were clearly at the entrance of the ancient ruins.
According to the current situation, they would soon open the entrance.
Therefore, Linlong hurriedly went over.
It would be troublesome if he didn't go over as soon as possible and allowed the other party to enter first. If that happened, the other party would most likely obtain the fragment before him.
When he was still a certain distance away from the four of them, there was a muffled "kacha" sound in front of him. Linlong knew that the entrance had been opened.
"Sure enough, the entrance is here!"
Sure enough, the four of them exclaimed in the next moment. At the same time, the four of them rushed into the entrance.
Linlong didn't hesitate and immediately followed them in.
The stone room was still the same size as before. The only difference was that there weren't any stone tables or benches, but a stone platform instead.
Linlong swept his gaze across and saw a black box on the stone platform. It was exactly the same as the black box he had obtained earlier. There were no words on it either, so it was obvious that the fragment was in the box.
The four of them had obviously seen it as well. One of them even rushed towards the box.
Linlong knew that it would be troublesome if that person obtained it. Although he was stronger than the four of them, it was difficult for him to fight against so many people. Therefore, he made a decision, which was to draw the runic iron sword at his waist and attack the person at the front.
That person was shocked and hurriedly dodged to the side. At the same time, the other three also drew their iron swords and surrounded Linlong.
"Brat, you're really bold. You actually want to snatch something that belongs to us!" The person who was almost ambushed by Linlong had an ugly expression on his face.
Another person said, "Ah Jiu, ignore him. Let's go get the box first."
"Okay." The person called Ah Jiu nodded and turned around again.
However, just as he was about to continue walking forward, a black shadow flashed past him. By the time he came to his senses, the black shadow had already rushed to the stone platform and grabbed the black box.
The black shadow was Monkey, who had entered behind Linlong.
"Bastard, quickly put it down, or else I'll kill you!" A 'Jiu could not help but point the rune iron sword at the monkey and angrily said.
"A 'Jiu, this monkey can't speak. What's the point of scolding it? Hurry up and attack!" One of the people surrounding Lin Long's group of three said.
"Of course." Ah Jiu frowned. He was clearly displeased. However, in the next moment, he still attacked the monkey with his sword.
Who would have thought that as soon as he moved his hand, the monkey was already running in the direction he had come from?
Monkey's speed was so fast that Lin Long's expression changed. He quickly chased after it. As for the other three, they wanted to chase after it as well when they saw that the situation wasn't going well. They couldn't be bothered with Lin Long right now.
Monkey was instructed by Linlong, so how could Linlong let these three people rush over and stop Monkey easily?
Therefore, when the three of them were about to move, he had already swept his sword towards them.
The three of them were startled. How would they dare to rush over?
It was also because of this that the monkey directly rushed to the entrance and disappeared in an instant. It was obvious that it had already rushed out.
As for Linlong, he had already put away the rune iron sword and followed behind Monkey.
"Chase!" The four of them naturally roared and followed closely behind Linlong.
Just as Linlong was about to rush to the entrance, the person closest to him attacked with his sword. However, what made his expression turn ugly was that Linlong had already disappeared when his sword aura reached him. It was obvious that Linlong had rushed out.
The four of them hurriedly rushed out. Once they got out, the first thing they saw was Linlong, who had just come out.
However, they didn't chase after Linlong because Monkey, who was holding the black box in his hand, was clearly on the left.
"Chase that monkey!" one of them shouted hurriedly.
Then the four of them chased in the direction of Monkey.
Although they hated Linlong, the box was still in Monkey's hands. Therefore, they naturally had to capture Monkey first.
The more they chased, the uglier their expressions became. This was because they realized that they couldn't keep up with Monkey at all. After chasing for a while, they couldn't even see Monkey's shadow.
The four of them could only stop helplessly.
"Damn it, what is that? It's only at the bronze sword rank, but it's so fast!" one of them couldn't help but curse.
"I don't know." The other three shook their heads. They had never seen such a beast before.
"It's all that kid's fault. If he hadn't stopped us just now, Monkey wouldn't have been able to escape!" Then, one of them couldn't help but curse.
"Do you guys know that kid? What's his name?" another person asked.
"I don't know." The others still shook their heads. It was obvious that none of them knew Linlong.
"No matter what, the next time he sees us, he's dead!" Finally, the four of them said viciously.
As they spoke, they continued to chase in the direction that Monkey had disappeared in, hoping to encounter him again.
What they didn't know was that Monkey had already made a turn to their right. Here, he saw Linlong.
After seeing Linlong, Monkey obediently handed the black box to Linlong.
"Hmm, not bad." Linlong nodded and took the black box.
Soon, he opened the black box and looked inside. He found that there were also a few yellowed pieces of paper. Each piece of paper had many words written on it.
After taking it out and looking at it, Linlong found that the contents were actually connected to the previous pieces of paper.
After connecting the contents of the paper, Linlong couldn't help but murmur, "It seems that as long as I can find some more content, I can obtain a sword technique!"
Being able to see this was related to the insights that Linlong had obtained in the cave abode of Zhu Geng and the others. If it was an ordinary person, they wouldn't be able to see this at all without knowing those insights.
Seeing this, Linlong looked forward to the remnant pages in the next ancient ruin.
He vaguely felt that the remnant book in the ancient ruins should be able to connect with the previous two remnant books. If that was the case, he might be able to obtain a sword technique. This was very important to him. After all, there were many people who had the strength of a Silver rank. If he could obtain a sword technique like that, he might be able to use it against those Silver-ranked people.
With this thought in mind, Linlong immediately put away the remnant pages in his hands, and headed in the direction of the next ancient ruin.
The location of this ancient ruin was relatively close. According to the distance, he would only need to spend five minutes to reach there.
Halfway there, he met a young man in his twenties. The other party seemed to know him as he stared at him for a while.
Linlong didn't know him, and couldn't be bothered with him. Hence, he continued to rush forward after glancing at him.
He didn't know that as soon as he left, the young man sprinted towards his right.
Soon, the young man saw someone. This person was Meng Yun, who was in the silver rank with Ma Tiancheng.
Looking at the young man walking over, Meng Yun was a little puzzled. "Zhang Lu, what's the matter?"
He had just seen Zhang Lu, and now that Zhang Lu was here again, he was naturally a little puzzled.
Zhang Lu hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Meng, I saw Lin Li just now!"
"Where is he?" Upon hearing this, Meng Yun's face revealed a joyful expression.
He had come here to capture Linlong, so there was no way he wouldn't be happy to hear such news. Of course, at this point, he was even more eager to obtain the sword technique inside.
However, before he could obtain the sword technique, he naturally had to capture Lin Long after hearing about Lin Long's information.
"That direction!" The young man named Zhang Lu immediately pointed in the direction that Linlong had left.
Previously, Ma Tiancheng had told Zhang Lu about capturing Lin Long. As someone with only the strength of an iron sword rank, Zhang Lu naturally wanted to curry favor with Ma Tiancheng and Meng Yun. Hence, when he saw Lin Long, he immediately reported to Meng Yun.
"Alright, let's chase after him!" With this, Meng Yun immediately chased in the direction that Lin Long had left, while Zhang Lu followed closely behind him.
Linlong didn't know this. At this time, he had already arrived at his destination. However, after searching for a while, he finally found the entrance to the ancient ruin.
Just as he was about to open the entrance, he frowned. This was because he realized that there were two people rushing towards this place from his left, and they were already very close to him.
If he opened the entrance to the ancient ruin now, the other party would definitely hear the sound and rush over.
Therefore, he suppressed the thought of immediately opening the entrance to the ancient ruin and quietly stayed where he was.
He planned to wait for them to leave before opening the entrance and entering.
However, he didn't know that the two people rushing over were here to search for him.
Soon, he felt that something was amiss. This was because the other party had no intention of leaving immediately. Instead, they were searching for something in the vicinity.
Could it be that they knew that there was an ancient ruin here? Linlong's expression changed.
After carefully looking in the direction of the two people, his frown deepened. This was because he could tell that one of them had the strength of a silver rank. Most importantly, this person was one of the people from Ma Tiancheng and Meng Yun.
Previously, Ah Sheng hadn't had the chance to tell Linlong who Ma Tiancheng and Meng Yun were, so Linlong naturally couldn't tell who was who.
And after seeing the other person, he immediately recognized that it was the young man he had met on the way.
Could it be that this young man recognized me and told the other person? That's why the other person rushed over to capture me? Linlong analyzed inwardly.
"Where's that punk hiding?"
At that moment, the young man he had met on the way suddenly asked.
Upon hearing that, Linlong knew that the other party was here for him and not because they had discovered the ancient ruin.
"It should be nearby. Let's search carefully first!" Meng Yun said.
If he continued staying here, he would definitely be discovered. Therefore, he had to escape first. After luring them away, he would return to take the remnant chapter in the ancient ruin! At that instant, Linlong made such a decision.
After making the decision, he immediately turned around and ran in the direction behind him.
The moment he stood up, he was discovered by Meng Yun.
"He's over there. Quick, chase after him!" Meng Yun shouted as he chased after him.
At that moment, Linlong was very worried. This was because if the other party knew Silver Steps, he wouldn't have the advantage of speed. When the time came, the other party would definitely catch up to him.
Thankfully, the person behind him didn't know Silver Steps like Senior Brother Zheng, so he couldn't catch up to him even after chasing for a while.
At that moment, Meng Yun, who was chasing closely behind him, naturally had an ugly expression. He never expected Linlong to be so fast.
From the looks of it, this punk had completely mastered Iron Patterned Steps! This thought flashed through Meng Yun's mind.
However, although he couldn't close the distance now, he still followed closely. He had the same idea as Senior Brother Zheng, which was that if Linlong was stopped by any beast or person, he would be able to catch up to him.
However, after chasing for a while, he didn't encounter any beasts. Instead, a beast suddenly rushed out from his left.
Although this beast only had the strength of a bronze sword rank, it still affected him. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to catch up to Linlong if he slowed down, he angrily transferred his anger to this beast.
What made him depressed was that this beast was extremely fast and nimble. Although it only had the strength of a bronze sword rank, he had no way of killing it. In the end, he could only give up on this idea.
This beast was naturally the monkey beside Linlong. Linlong had ordered it to disturb the other party, so it hid at the side and suddenly rushed out to deal with Meng Yun.
Otherwise, it wouldn't dare to provoke Meng Yun, who was stronger than it.
Meng Yun, who had been played by the monkey, lost his temper. Just as he was thinking about whether he should continue chasing in the direction Linlong escaped in, Zhang Lu caught up from behind.
The moment he caught up, Zhang Lu anxiously said, "Senior Brother Meng, there seems to be an ancient ruin where Linlong was just now!"
"An ancient ruin?" Meng Yun asked in disbelief.
The reason why he didn't believe it was because if there really was an ancient ruin, Zhang Lu would have monopolized it himself. Why would he tell him?
Zhang Lu, who understood Meng Yun's intention, said, "Just now, I felt the aura of an ancient ruin near that place. However, just as I was about to investigate, a few more people came. I don't know if they felt that there was an ancient ruin nearby, so they started searching the area once they came. I know I'm no match for them, so I quickly came to find you, Senior Brother Meng. "
How could Meng Yun not believe Zhang Lu? He immediately said, "Let's go!"
As they walked, he asked, "Are there any silver-rank people among them?"
"There doesn't seem to be anyone in the silver-rank," Zhang Lu replied.
"Then if there really is an ancient ruin, it'll be ours!" Meng Yun said happily.
Of course, there was something he didn't say out loud. If there really was an ancient ruin, it would belong to Meng Yun alone.
At this moment, Linlong was not far behind the two of them. After he escaped just now, he didn't go around them directly because it would be too far. Hence, he planned to wait for Meng Yun to leave before going back the way he came.
However, when he saw Meng Yun and Zhang Lu leaving, he started to worry. This was because Meng Yun only left after the young man came over and said something to him. Furthermore, he left very quickly.
This made him worry that Meng Yun had discovered the ancient ruin.
After all, if Meng Yun passed by the ancient ruin just now, he would have a chance to feel the aura of the ancient ruin.
He had to rush back immediately. If Meng Yun really felt the aura of the ancient ruin, the things inside would probably be snatched away if he didn't go there immediately!
With this thought in mind, Linlong immediately followed behind Meng Yun and Zhang Lu.
