Another few days passed.
On this day, Linlong, who had been meditating for a long time in a cave on the fifth level of the Demon-suppressing Pagoda, suddenly opened his eyes. Feeling the abundant Qi in his body, he nodded his head in satisfaction.
After these days of cultivation, his strength had broken through the Lv 8 Martial Master Realm and reached the early stage of the Lv 9 Martial Master Realm. The Green Spiritual Armor on his body had also recovered 10% of its strength after completely digesting the blood of the lion-headed leopard beast.
All of this was something to be happy about.
"It's time to go to the fourth level." After standing up and killing a few evil spirits outside the cave, Linlong muttered to himself.
The lower he went, the higher the possibility of finding the Spiritual Fire. This was also the reason why Linlong had to go down step by step. Even though it was more dangerous as he went down, he could not care so much anymore.
After silently reciting the rune terms, Linlong's figure appeared on the fourth level. However, what surprised him was that no evil spirits immediately surrounded him when he appeared this time.
One had to know that every time he appeared on the fifth level, there would be at least two such evil spirits surrounding him. Who would have thought that there would be no such situation on the more dangerous fourth level?
Something must have happened, so Linlong was not glad that there were no evil spirits surrounding him. Instead, he looked around more cautiously.
The fourth level was the same as the fifth. As far as the eye could see, there were caves everywhere. However, the caves on the fourth level were obviously much larger and the gloomy aura was even stronger.
Not only that, there was a black liquid that emitted a rancid smell flowing on the ground. If one was not careful, one would step on the liquid.
Suddenly, Linlong's eyes narrowed. He discovered that in an extremely large cave not far away, there was a large black mass of evil spirits. There were at least a few hundred of these evil spirits.
Moreover, the strength of each evil spirit was equivalent to a Lv 7 Martial Master Realm martial artist or above.
Seeing these evil spirits, Linlong could not help but gasp. If he had fallen into the encirclement of these evil spirits, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
It seemed that he could not casually use the rune to enter the fourth level in the future, Linlong thought to himself.
When he quietly took a few steps forward so that he could see the entire situation in the cave, Linlong was stunned again. This was because he discovered that these evil spirits had actually surrounded six people.
These six people were Hua Haotian, Wen Fu, and a few others.
These people looked extremely miserable. Apart from Hua Haotian, who looked slightly better, the others all had injuries of various sizes. One of them even lost half of his arm.
It seemed that these people had accidentally fallen into the encirclement of these evil spirits when they were hunting them on the fourth floor.
However, Linlong felt that things were not that simple. Based on the strength and numbers of the evil spirits on the first few levels, it was not normal for such a large number of powerful evil spirits to appear.
Most importantly, these evil spirits actually knew how to surround Hua Haotian and the others. This was beyond the intelligence of evil spirits.
Could it be?
As he thought of something, Linlong's eyes immediately searched through the evil spirits. Soon, he stopped on one evil spirit. This evil spirit was very different from the others. It was actually wearing a cloak, and besides that, there was a longsword stuck diagonally on its back, even though the longsword looked very rusty.
Also, Linlong found a ring on its hand that was golden on the inside, but wrapped in a thick layer of demonic aura on the outside.
Linlong quickly confirmed that this evil spirit was the different evil spirit he saw on the fifth floor. He did not expect this evil spirit to have undergone an earth-shattering change after not seeing it for a few days. Not only did it have a weapon on it, but even the evil spirits it controlled had also become stronger.
It was also at this moment that the scene began to change. The originally still evil spirits suddenly launched an attack on Hua Haotian and the others.
How could Hua Haotian and the others withstand such a siege? After a few breaths, one of them directly cried out in pain and fell to the ground. Linlong focused his gaze and saw that his abdomen had been pierced by an evil spirit's arm.
With such a serious injury, there was no way he could survive unless he was treated immediately. However, at this moment, Hua Haotian and the others had no time to treat him.
This person's injury made Hua Haotian and the others panic even more.
Not long after, another person fell to the ground. This person's back was pierced by an evil spirit's arm.
"What should we do, Senior Brother Haotian?" One of the remaining four people shouted in panic.
Hua Haotian did not answer. His face was full of shock. He did not expect to encounter so many evil spirits on the fourth floor. Although he knew that it was the unique evil spirit that was behind this, they could not do anything to it at the moment.
"Ah …"
While they were deep in thought, another person was seriously injured by the evil spirit.
It seemed that they could only use that thing. Seeing this situation, Hua Haotian's expression changed again.
Not daring to delay, he quickly took out a golden talisman that was engraved with threads of runes and immediately chanted some strange runic terms. After that, a few runes suddenly flashed on his body. As soon as these runes appeared, they immediately erupted with a powerful energy, directly knocking the evil spirits around them away.
Immediately after that, these runes suddenly exploded.
After a few dazzling flashes of light, they began to form a huge vortex that surrounded Hua Haotian and the others.
It was a Runic Teleportation Talisman! Seeing this scene, Linlong was taken aback.
He did not expect Hua Haotian to have such an item on him. This item was incomparably precious. Its rarity could be said to be comparable to his green wings. Most importantly, this Runic Teleportation Talisman was a consumable item. Each talisman could only be used once, unlike his green wings which could be used countless times.
After the Runic Teleportation Talisman appeared, the surrounding evil spirits could not approach at all. Every time they tried to approach, a huge energy above the vortex would repel them.
Finally, they were out of danger. Seeing that the evil spirits could not do anything to the vortex, Hua Haotian and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
At the same time that they breathed a sigh of relief, Hua Haotian's heart was naturally dripping blood. At the same time, he naturally knew that this Runic Teleportation Talisman was precious. He only had one with him, and after using it, there would be no more.
Just when they thought that they were completely out of danger, the evil spirits in front of them suddenly scattered in all directions, leaving only the unique evil spirit standing in the middle.
This evil spirit's face was covered with a golden mask, leaving only a pair of eyes that shone with a strange light.
All of a sudden, it moved. All they saw was that it leaped tens of feet high into the air. At the moment it leaped, Hua Haotian and the others saw that a demonic saber that flashed with dense demonic energy had suddenly appeared in its hand.
Hua Haotian and the others thought that the evil spirit's weapon was that long sword. They did not expect it to be a demonic saber that appeared out of nowhere.
The demonic saber was several feet long. Apart from the dense demonic energy on its body, they could not tell whether it had a physical body or not.
As soon as the demonic saber appeared, the evil spirit's aura became even more terrifying. When it leaped to the highest point, it directly swung the demonic saber in its hand down.
A powerful force also followed the slash.
After that, there was a loud sound of impact. The demonic saber ruthlessly struck the huge vortex formed by the Runic Teleportation Talisman.
In an instant, the huge vortex actually began to shake.
Fortunately, after shaking for a short while, the huge vortex disappeared in a dazzling white light.
At the same time, Hua Haotian and the others appeared in the Law Enforcement Hall.
The few of them fell to the ground. Ignoring the pain on their bodies, they hurriedly crawled up from the ground. When they saw that there were no new wounds on their bodies, they all felt a lingering fear in their hearts. That was because the attack from that evil spirit was too terrifying.
If the vortex had not teleported them in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
At this moment, the Law Enforcement Hall was empty. Other than the Law Enforcement Elder who was sitting at the front, there was no one else.
Seeing Hua Haotian and the others appear, the Law Enforcement Elder's expression slightly changed. He hurriedly said, "Haotian, what happened to you guys?"
He could see that the reason why Hua Haotian appeared here was because he had used the only Runic Teleportation Talisman on him. That was the only Runic Teleportation Talisman in the entire sect.
Thinking that Hua Haotian had used it just like that, the Law Enforcement Elder could not help but feel a little heartache.
Hua Haotian and the others immediately told the Law Enforcement Elder about how they were besieged.
After hearing Hua Haotian's words, the Law Enforcement Elder's expression immediately changed. "This won't do. This matter must be reported to the Sect Leader."
Xing Bai quickly arrived at the Law Enforcement Hall. When he heard about this matter, his expression also changed greatly.
Even though this matter was extremely frightening, seeing the two of them like this, Hua Haotian could not help but say, "Master, is this really that frightening?"
After sighing, Xing Bai said, "Haotian, something like this happened more than a hundred years ago. At that time, the entire Demon Subduing Pagoda almost collapsed."
"It was that serious?" Hua Haotian was immediately shocked.
"Could it be that the evil spirit is going to resurrect?" Wen Fu could not help but say.
"It's not that serious. However, if it wasn't dealt with in time last time, the consequences might really be like this." Xing Bai said, then he became even more serious. "Therefore, this time, we must learn from the previous lesson. In order to kill these evil spirits in the pagoda, I must use the energy that the pagoda has stored for a hundred years."
"A hundred years of energy?" Hua Haotian and the others were stunned.
"You guys don't know about this. Every day, the pagoda will store some energy in case of emergencies. Don't look down on this energy. With this energy, the power of the evil spirits in the pagoda will definitely be reduced by a fifth." Xing Bai said.
Hearing this, a happy expression immediately appeared on the faces of Hua Haotian and the others. Because if this was the case, the evil spirits that were obviously different would not be so powerful.
