Linlong easily obtained the black box, and nothing unexpected happened during the process.
After taking out the incomplete sword skill manual from the black box and looking at it, Linlong's eyebrows furrowed slightly. Although the incomplete sword skill manual could be linked to the previous sword skill manual, it was utterly inadequate. It could not form the third sword technique.
Because of this, Linlong didn't have much hope for the black box in the fifth ancient ruin. From the looks of it, it would be difficult to form the third sword technique with just the incomplete sword technique manual in the fifth ancient ruin.
However, he could only take it one step at a time. He couldn't rush it.
After keeping the incomplete sword technique manual in his hand, Linlong immediately left the place and headed for the fifth ancient ruin.
…
When Linlong headed for the fifth ancient ruin, seven to eight people walked over from the entrance of the secret realm. When the people waiting at the entrance of the secret realm saw these seven to eight people, they immediately revealed surprised expressions.
This was because the leader of these seven to eight people was a teacher, and behind this teacher were people with Black Gold rank strength.
One must know that the strength of the guards in the Copper and Iron World was only at the Silver rank. These Black Gold rank people were a level higher than the Silver rank.
What are they doing here? For a moment, this question flashed in everyone's mind.
Soon, these seven to eight people arrived at the entrance of the secret realm.
When they arrived, the people waiting at the entrance of the secret realm all stood up and respectfully greeted the teacher. "Teacher Hao, why are you here?"
If Linlong was here, he would definitely recognize this teacher as Hao Fenglan.
"I heard that the runic storm that hasn't appeared in the Valley of the Wind for a long time has appeared. The dean and elders sent me here to take a look and see what's going on," Hao Fenglan said as she sized up the entrance of the secret realm.
Although the halo of light at the entrance of the secret realm had already disappeared into the void, he could still feel the unusual fluctuation.
Of course, the reason why he came here was because he asked the others and rushed over after learning that the secret realm had opened.
"There was a runic storm in the past, but it passed very quickly. However, this secret realm suddenly appeared, and basically all the brothers in the Valley of the Wind entered it," someone immediately replied.
The people waiting at the entrance were naturally those who came out from the secret realm. Some of them were meditating to heal their injuries, while others were waiting for the people inside to come out to ask about the situation.
"Who knows what's going on inside?" Hao Fenglan asked again.
The reason he was able to come was because of the Runic Storm. After knowing about the Runic Storm, Miao De, who was forced by the black-clothed girl to the point where he could no longer bear it, threw caution to the wind, and fought desperately for a chance for his people to enter the Bronze World.
Fortunately, the elders agreed to let Hao Fenglan enter the Copper-Iron World to investigate. Due to the uniqueness of the Copper-Iron World, the elders allowed these Black Gold rank experts to follow Hao Fenglan in.
Hao Fenglan, who heard that Linlong might be in the Valley of the Wind, immediately led her men to the Valley of the Wind.
Hearing Hao Fenglan's question, another person said, "Everyone, do your best to fight for the incomplete sword skill inside."
Hao Fenglan also had some thoughts about this incomplete sword technique manual. However, he knew that it would be extremely difficult to obtain all the incomplete sword technique manuals. If he really did that, he would probably lose his position as a teacher if word of this got out. In fact, he might even be punished by the academy. Therefore, he only thought about it and did not plan to fight with the other disciples.
"Well, is there anyone who stood out?" Hao Fenglan asked again.
"The stronger Senior Brothers like Meng Yun and Ma Tiancheng would naturally have an easier time obtaining the incomplete sword technique manuals. However, there was another person who surprised us the most," that person said.
At this moment, he actually kept them in suspense. Hao Fenglan did not mind, and hurriedly asked, "Who is that person? How did he surprise you?"
"That person's name is Linlong. I heard that he is a disciple who just entered the Copper-Iron World. I'm not sure if it's because he obtained the Runic Sword that could release Silver rank energy, but he actually managed to obtain quite a number of incomplete sword technique manuals," that person answered.
"Linlong?" Upon hearing this, Hao Fenglan immediately frowned. He did not expect Linlong, who was with these Silver rank experts, to be able to obtain quite a number of incomplete sword technique manuals.
This kid is really powerful. It seems like I have to catch him as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer I take, the harder it will be to catch him! This thought flashed through Hao Fenglan's mind.
"It's that Linlong," another person said.
"Then, did any Runic Storms appear inside?" Hao Fenglan asked again.
"There wasn't any Runic Storm," several people replied at the same time.
"Although there wasn't any Runic Storm, there might still be one. Hence, I brought them into the secret realm to take a look to ensure that there are no accidents," Hao Fenglan continued.
It was true that he entered the secret realm to catch Linlong, but it was not true that he wanted to check out the Runic Storm. However, he had to find a reason for himself. Otherwise, if someone with ulterior motives revealed this matter, it would not benefit him at all, and might even implicate Miao De.
"However, Mentor Hao, the entrance to the secret realm has been sealed. There is no way to enter," someone said.
"Don't worry, this entrance is only hidden. It can be easily opened," Hao Fenglan said.
As he spoke, he looked around and said, "Alright, all of you back off!"
The people at the entrance hurriedly retreated. As for Hao Fenglan, he strode forward and stood in front of the entrance.
After that, he suddenly took out the Runic Sword on his body and slashed at the void in front of him.
It seemed like he was slashing at the void, but he was actually slashing at the entrance.
"Boom boom boom …"
After three consecutive slashes, the sound of an explosion came from the entrance. Then, the halo from before appeared in front of everyone again.
However, compared to before, this halo was obviously a little unstable.
"Quick, let's go in quickly!" Hao Fenglan hurriedly said to the few people who came with him.
Hearing his words, those people hurriedly rushed towards the circle of light. Only after they rushed in did Hao Fenglan follow suit.
Seeing that the few of them had rushed in, the few people waiting outside became restless and rushed in as well.
At this moment, one of the four people said to the other three, "Judging from Mentor Hao's expression, it seems like he has some prejudice against Junior Brother Lin."
These four people were none other than Yan Dong, Ah Sheng, Song Le, and Wang Hongsheng who came with them.
After the four of them came out, they had been meditating and recuperating. Before they left, they met Hao Fenglan and the others.
The one who spoke was Yan Dong. Having been paying attention to Hao Fenglan, he noticed that when Hao Fenglan mentioned Lin Long, a cold expression flashed across his face. Being knowledgeable, he immediately felt that Hao Fenglan had some prejudice against Lin Long.
"I think so too." Song Le nodded.
"Then isn't Junior Brother Lin in danger!" Ah Sheng couldn't help but be shocked.
"If it's really as we guessed, then Junior Brother Lin is really in danger." Song Le added.
"That won't do. I have to go in and inform Junior Brother Lin. Otherwise, if he encounters these people, he won't even have a chance to escape!" Ah Sheng hurriedly said.
At this moment, Yan Dong said, "Of course you have to go in, but it's better for me to go. I'm stronger than you, Ah Sheng."
"Brother Dong, how can I let you take the risk?" Ah Sheng couldn't help but say.
"This isn't an issue of risk or not. I'm stronger than you, so my chances of meeting Junior Brother Lin are higher than yours. So, it will increase Junior Brother Lin's chances of escaping." Yan Dong said solemnly.
Hearing Yan Dong's words, Ah Sheng could only say, "Then Brother Dong, be careful."
"Yan Dong, be careful!" Song Le and Wang Hongsheng also said.
"Yes, I will be careful. You guys just wait for me outside!" Yan Dong said.
Seeing that the entrance ahead was clearly becoming more unstable, Yan Dong didn't dare to say anything else. He hurriedly rushed towards the entrance and soon, his figure disappeared in front of him.
…
At this time, Lin Long had already arrived at the entrance of the fifth ancient ruins. The moment he arrived, he frowned because there were already two people standing outside the entrance.
But fortunately, the two of them were still thinking about how to open the entrance.
Not long after, the entrance was opened by them. After a "kacha" sound, the two of them immediately rushed in.
Lin Long, who had long arrived behind them, also rushed in at the same time.
"There's someone!" Once they realized that there was someone behind them, the two of them cried out in alarm. At the same time, they sped up and rushed towards the stone platform in front of them.
How could Lin Long give them a chance? In a short period of time, he directly overtook the two of them and rushed towards the stone platform. Then, he grabbed the black box on the stone platform before they did.
Seeing that Lin Long had obtained the black box, the two of them stopped with gloomy expressions. Then, they stood in front of Lin Long, one on the left and one on the right.
At this time, the two of them also realized that the person in front of them was Lin Long. One of them immediately shouted, "Lin Li, hurry up and throw the black box over!"
The other person even sneered, "Not only do we throw the black box, we also want the other incomplete sword skill manuals on you!"
"Then I can only say that you are daydreaming." Lin Long smiled indifferently.
Obviously, the two of them heard Ma Tiancheng and Meng Yun's words and wanted to deal with him.
"Daydreaming? Hehe, then we will let you know how powerful we are! " With such a sneer, the two of them raised the runic iron sword in their hands and pointed it at Lin Long. At the same time, they even activated the runes on the runic iron sword.
In the next moment, the two of them attacked Lin Long with their swords.
Lin Long hurriedly used his Iron Striped Steps, and then waited for an opportunity to counterattack with the runic iron sword.
In the beginning, the two of them were full of confidence. However, as time passed, their expressions became more and more unpleasant. This was because they realized that they could not do anything to Lin Long at all. If this went on, they would definitely lose to Lin Long.
Moreover, Lin Long had not used the runic sword that could activate the strength of the Silver Grade.
Hence, one of them hurriedly said, "We are no match for him. Let's leave this place first!"
"Alright!" The other person replied without hesitation.
Immediately, the two of them retreated while fighting.
How could Lin Long give the other party a chance to escape? He immediately activated the runic iron sword and Iron Striped Steps to the extreme.
After another two moves, there was only a scream. One of them was directly hit in the wrist, and the runic iron sword in his hand was directly sent flying.
As soon as this person was injured, the other person's face immediately revealed a horrified expression. Then, he immediately turned around and fled.
Who would have thought that just as he fled, Lin Long's sword aura had already attacked him from behind?
He hurriedly swung his sword to block. With a muffled sound, he was directly pushed forward by the attack. Then, he directly fell face first onto the ground.
Before he could even stand up, Lin Long had already rushed in front of him like maggots. The runic iron sword was directly pointed at his throat.
"Junior … Junior Brother Lin … Let me go!" The person hurriedly shouted.
However, Lin Long did not give him any chance. He directly slashed his sword across his throat, killing him instantly.
Seeing his companion fall just like that, the other person was so scared that his entire body trembled. In the end, he even directly knelt down.
"Junior … Junior … Junior Brother Lin …" His words were even more incoherent than the first person.
Before he could say another word, Lin Long's runic iron sword had already slashed across his throat. Just like the previous person, he also died.
After taking the spatial rings from the two people, Lin Long immediately left the place.
After walking for a while, a person suddenly rushed over from the front. This person's strength caused Lin Long's heart to tremble. This person actually had the strength of a Black Gold rank.
There weren't any Black Gold rank people that came in previously. How could there be a Black Gold rank person here? Could it be that he came in later?
However, there wasn't anyone with the strength of a Black Gold rank in the Copper World. Just where did he come from?
In an instant, many questions flashed through Lin Long's mind.
At this moment, the other party had already arrived in front of him.
"Greetings, Senior Brother." Lin Long hurriedly greeted respectfully.
At this moment, even if he used his strongest strength, he still wouldn't be able to withstand a single move from this person. Thus, how could he dare to be careless?
"En." Seeing Lin Long's respectful manner, the other party revealed a satisfied smile on his face. Then, he asked, "Junior Brother, have you seen Lin Li before?"
Lin Li? These words caused Lin Long to be stunned. However, he quickly concealed it, and immediately said, "May I know why Senior Brother is looking for Lin Li?"
"If I have something to look for him, why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and tell me, have you seen him before?" The other party was obviously a little impatient.
'He's probably here to find trouble with me. Fortunately, the other party clearly doesn't recognize me. Otherwise, he would have already attacked me,' Lin Long thought.
Immediately, he hurriedly said, "I've seen Lin Li just now. He's on the right front."
As he spoke, he casually pointed to the right front.
"Alright, I'll go take a look now. However, if I don't see him in this direction, you have to be careful." The other party said.
"Senior Brother, I only saw him in that direction previously. How would I know if he's still here?" Lin Long hurriedly said.
"I'm not going to bother about that!" As he spoke, the person with the strength of a Black Gold rank directly chased in that direction.
