However, Xie Tong's expression turned even uglier because Linlong, who was bitten by a few gophers, did not fall. Instead, he continued to charge forward.
How did this kid do it? Xie Tong was naturally very puzzled.
He wanted to chase after him, but the surrounding gophers made it impossible for him to do so. He could only watch as Linlong left.
After expending a tremendous amount of effort, Linlong finally arrived at the first cave with ice crystals. At this point, there were only a few gophers that were chasing after him.
Linlong immediately stopped and activated the ice talisman to deal with them.
It didn't take long for him to kill the gophers.
At this time, Xie Tong and the others were still inside and could not chase after him.
This situation made Linlong heave a sigh of relief. In that instant, through his powerful Divine Sense, he sensed that there were many gophers around the crystal, but they were in a state of deep sleep.
At that time, he believed that once he took away the crystal, the gophers would immediately wake up.
If he was alone at that time, he would not have dared to take away the crystal. Coincidentally, Xie Tong and the others caught up at this time.
Linlong immediately used such a plan. Because Xie Tong and the others did not know that there were so many gophers below, and they were still in a state of deep sleep, they directly fell into the trap.
Of course, this was also because of Linlong's powerful body technique. If not for that, how could he have rushed out of the encirclement of the gophers just now?
Linlong, who was relieved, did not recuperate here. Instead, he immediately walked out. He thought that Mo Dao should be waiting for him outside, and even Wang Yi and the others would be there.
Just now, before he took away the crystal, Mo Dao had already left the cave as he was told.
What puzzled Linlong was that when he came out, there was no one outside.
Could something have happened? Linlong thought to himself.
He felt that given Mo Dao's character, he would be waiting for him outside no matter what. Therefore, he was naturally surprised that he did not see anyone after coming out.
Soon, he knew why, because there were new traces of fighting on the ground. It was obvious that Mo Dao and the others had encountered someone or a ferocious beast and were chased out of this place.
Seeing this, Linlong immediately left the place and found a place to meditate and recuperate.
After all, the gophers that had pounced on him were all Level 3 Dire Beasts. Fortunately, although these gophers were Level 3 Dire Beasts, they were weaker than ordinary Level 3 Dire Beasts. Otherwise, Linlong's injuries would have been even worse.
After meditating here for half a day and recovering quite a bit, Lin Long decided to leave.
Who would have thought that before he could leave, a figure would appear at the entrance of the cave. When Lin Long saw this person, he could not help but be somewhat astonished, because this person was Xie Tong.
He was surprised that Xie Tong was still able to come out under such circumstances.
At this moment, Xie Tong looked extremely disheveled. There were bloodstains all over his body, as if he had just fought his way out of the cave.
"Kid, you're actually here!" Xie Tong's eyes immediately lit up when he saw Linlong.
Moreover, this cave only had one exit, so he was not worried that Linlong could escape.
At the same time, Xie Tong was also surprised because Linlong didn't seem to be injured at all.
Could it be that this brat's recovery ability was astonishing? Such a question flashed through his mind.
"Senior Brother Xie Tong, by the looks of it, you didn't have a good time in the past." Lin Long smiled.
Upon hearing Lin Long's words, Xie Tong's expression immediately turned ugly.
Not only did he not have a good time, his two followers had already died in the cave. If it wasn't for the fact that he was stronger and that there was another exit in the cave, he would not have been able to stand in front of Linlong so easily.
"Brat, if I don't skin you alive and pull out your tendons today, my surname will not be Xie in the future!" Xie Tong said angrily.
After saying that, he took out his Ice Talisman.
He was afraid that an accident would happen later, so he naturally wanted to end the battle quickly.
How could Linlong dare to underestimate his opponent? He also immediately took out his Ice Talisman.
"A new disciple like you wants to compete with me in Ice Talisman! Today, I will let you know how powerful I am! "Xie Tong sneered.
Immediately, he began to silently recite the rune terms, and opposite him, Linlong, did the same.
In the next moment, the two of them had already released waves of Ice Qi.
In just a breath's time, Xie Tong's face revealed a look of surprise because he discovered that Linlong's attainment in Ice Talisman was actually on par with his.
"Brat, don't tell me you have completely mastered the third-grade Ice Talisman?" Xie Tong could not help but be surprised.
"If not, how could I be on par with you?" Linlong said indifferently.
"You really surprised me!" Xie Tong frowned.
The two of them persisted for a while longer and realized that neither of them could do anything to the other.
At this moment, Xie Tong said coldly, "In that case, why don't we compete in sword skills and see who is better!"
After saying that, he directly took out his Rune Sword.
Linlong also took out his runic sword when he saw Zhou Yuan's reaction.
Looking at the Rune Sword that Linlong took out, Xie Tong's face revealed a look of surprise again because he discovered that Linlong actually took out a silver sword.
"You can activate the silver sword?" Xie Tong could not help but be surprised.
After all, he was only holding a steel sword in his hand.
"Of course." Linlong nodded, then directly activated the silver sword in his hand.
Seeing that Linlong could really activate the silver sword, Xie Tong's face involuntarily twitched. He originally thought that with his Iron Sword rank strength, he would definitely be able to defeat his opponent. Who would have thought that his opponent's strength was actually above his?
"Not only can you completely master the third-grade Ice Talisman, but you also have the strength of a Silver rank. How did you do it?" Xie Tong could not help but ask.
He really could not understand how Lin Long was able to do this at such a young age. It had to be known that he had spent god knows how many years to raise his strength in these two aspects to this level. Who would have thought that Lin Long was actually above him?
"I can only say that it's talent." Linlong calmly smiled.
"Talent?" As he said that, Xie Tong's face twitched again.
Although he knew that he would definitely lose, how could he be willing to give up just like that? Therefore, in the next moment, he directly attacked Linlong with his sword.
Seeing that sword attack, Linlong casually waved his hand, and a wave of sword qi met the attack.
"Bang!"
The sword qi hit, and a person was directly sent flying. It was Xie Tong.
Xie Tong, who was dizzy from the fall, was just about to stand up when Linlong was already in front of him. Then, the rune sword was pointed at his throat.
Afraid that Linlong would kill him, Xie Tong hurriedly begged for mercy, "Junior Brother, let me go … If you let me go, I will definitely follow your lead in the future!"
"I can let you go, but you have to swallow this pill." As Linlong spoke, he took out a Ten Day Heart Attack Pill and threw it to Xie Tong.
Xie Tong hurriedly caught it and looked at the pill in his hand. Feeling that something was wrong, he hurriedly asked, "What is this?"
Linlong immediately explained the effects of the Ten Day Heart Attack Pill.
After hearing that, Xie Tong's expression naturally changed drastically. However, there was nothing he could do but obediently swallow it.
After subduing Xie Tong and making him take out the crystal from his spatial ring, Linlong let him leave.
As for Linlong himself, he also left the Catacombs.
Since he had already obtained the crystal, he could definitely learn the knowledge of level-4 ice talismans in the future, so naturally, he would not stay in the Catacombs any longer.
As soon as he returned outside, Linlong saw Mo Dao, Wang Yi, and the others at the entrance of the Catacombs.
The three of them had obviously not recovered from their injuries.
As soon as they saw Linlong, the three of them were overjoyed.
After the joy, Mo Dao couldn't help but ask, "Junior Brother Lin, how did you escape from that cave?"
"After I obtained the crystal, a group of gophers suddenly appeared, and most of these gophers attacked Xie Tong and the others. Only a few chased me, so I was lucky enough to escape." Linlong said.
"Junior Brother Lin, according to what you said, you also obtained the crystal?" Wang Yi asked.
"Yes, I got the crystal." Linlong nodded.
"That's too amazing, not only did you escape from the cave, but you also obtained the crystal!" Wang Yi couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"Indeed, Junior Brother Lin, you are too amazing." Mo Dao and Wang Yi also couldn't help but praise.
The three of them knew that in that kind of situation, no matter how lucky one was, it was impossible to escape without the strength to do so.
"Junior Brother Lin, when I came out, I planned to wait for you outside and help you if you were in danger. Who would have thought that when I came out of the first cave with ice crystals, the sounds of fighting came from outside, and I clearly heard Wang Yi and Wang Yi's cries of surprise. I hurriedly rushed out, and as soon as I came out, I saw ferocious beasts surrounding Wang Yi and Wang Yi. If I didn't go over to help, they would definitely die, so I directly rushed over."
"After I joined them, it was naturally easier for them. However, just when we thought we could definitely take down the group of ferocious beasts, a few more ferocious beasts suddenly charged over. How could we, who were exhausted, be a match for them? So we could only choose to escape."
"Because of that, I couldn't wait for you there. I'm sorry."
Mo Dao said apologetically.
"Junior Brother Lin, we're sorry." Wang Yi and Wang Yi also said.
Linlong naturally believed Mo Dao's words, because he had seen the marks.
"Senior Brothers, there's nothing to be sorry about. I'm already very happy that you still thought of me in that situation." Linlong smiled.
"Junior Brother Lin, what happened to Xie Tong and the other two?" Wang Yi asked.
"The two that followed Xie Tong didn't come out," Linlong said.
"That means there's still Xie Tong!" Mo Dao frowned.
If there was still Xie Tong, he would definitely cause trouble for them in the future.
"You guys don't have to worry about Xie Tong, because he has already submitted to me," Linlong said.
"It can't be, right? Xie Tong actually submitted to you, Junior Brother Lin?" Mo Dao and the other two widened their eyes.
They understood Xie Tong's character very well, so they were naturally shocked when they heard Linlong's words.
Could it be that Xie Tong was beaten into submission by Junior Brother Lin? That was the thought that popped up in their minds.
"Yes." Linlong nodded.
"Junior Brother Lin, you're really too amazing!" Mo Dao and the other two gave him a thumbs up.
They naturally didn't doubt Linlong's words.
"These are the crystals you deserve." As he spoke, Linlong took out a small piece of crystal and handed it over.
This was the crystal that he obtained from Xie Tong previously.
"We can't accept it!" Mo Dao and the other two quickly waved their hands.
In their opinion, they wouldn't be of any help at all, so how could they accept Linlong's crystal?
"I, Linlong, am someone who keeps his word!" Linlong directly threw the crystal over and turned to leave.
By the time Wang Yi received the crystal, Linlong was already far away.
"Senior Brother Mo, this …" Wang Yi couldn't help but look at Mo Dao.
"Take the crystal first, and give it to Junior Brother Lin when you see him," Mo Dao immediately said.
…
Linlong directly walked towards the trading hall and broke off a small piece of crystal from the large crystal. After exchanging it for some contribution points, he bought the materials needed to draw third-grade frost talismans, then returned to his residence to practice.
After spending more than two days, Linlong finally succeeded in drawing third-grade frost talismans. This way, he would be able to learn about fourth-grade frost talismans.
Before he could go to the library, Shen Jun suddenly came looking for him.
"En, Shen Jun, what's the matter?" Linlong couldn't help but ask when he saw Shen Jun's expression.
Shen Jun said, "Brother Lin, do you remember Zhou Yingxue?"
"Yes, why?" Linlong was puzzled.
"That day, after I comprehended the absolute silence rune, Zhou Yingxue directly looked for me and asked me what secret I used to comprehend the rune so quickly," Shen Jun said.
"Is that so … Then you didn't tell her?" Linlong asked.
"Of course not. Why would I betray Brother Lin … I thought that you should know about this, so I came looking for you," Shen Jun said.
"Then I understand." Linlong nodded.
I can use this to get in touch with her, Linlong thought to himself.
After that, Shen Jun left. After Shen Jun left, there was another knock on Linlong's door, followed by Zhang Yue's voice. "Big Brother Linlong, are you in?"
Linlong opened the door and saw Zhang Yue's charming face.
"Big Brother Linlong, I want to tell you something," Zhang Yue said anxiously when she saw Linlong.
"En, what is it? Miss Zhang, take your time," Linlong said.
"It's like this. Senior Sister Fan has been missing for many days, but Lu Zhang, who was in frequent contact with Senior Sister Fan, seems to be fine. So I think he might have something to do with Senior Sister Fan's disappearance," Zhang Yue said.
Although she had a disagreement with Fan Youhe before, Zhang Yue still treated Fan Youhe as a good friend. Now that she had not seen her for many days, she was naturally worried that something had happened to her.
"Is that so!" Linlong couldn't help but frown when he heard Zhang Yue's words.
To be honest, these two names had already faded from his mind. Now that Zhang Yue mentioned them, he suddenly thought of something.
Linlong then looked for Xie Tong. He wanted Xie Tong to keep an eye on Lu Zhang and capture him when Lu Zhang entered the Subterranean Gallery.
As for himself, he directly went to the library and began to read books about Grade 4 Frost Rune Paper.
Before he increased his strength, he did not dare to enter the Subterranean Gallery again.
