Just when Elder Wang and the others thought that Linlong would be smashed into pieces, the ferocious beast suddenly exploded.
Elder Wang and the others couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
However, their brows were still tightly furrowed because Linlong was still hit by the shockwave from the explosion of the ferocious beast.
In an instant, Linlong was sent flying.
Fortunately, Linlong actually stood up in the next moment. Although his body was riddled with injuries, it was obvious that he was fine.
He was actually fine! Such a scene naturally made Elder Wang and the others sigh endlessly.
They knew that if they were in Linlong's position, they would definitely die on the spot even if they were hit by the shockwave.
It seemed like Young Master Lin had a powerful rune armor on him. They secretly thought to themselves.
Naturally, they didn't know that the reason why Linlong was able to withstand such an attack was because of his powerful body technique.
After confirming that Linlong was fine, Elder Wang and the others continued to fight the remaining four ferocious beasts. With one less ferocious beast, the strength of the four ferocious beasts was obviously reduced by half. Soon, they were knocked down by the five of them one by one.
At this time, they also clearly saw that these ferocious beasts were indeed not alive. It was obvious that they were made from some kind of special wood.
Naturally, they couldn't help but sigh endlessly when they saw this because Linlong had long noticed this.
As they sighed, they quickly moved to Linlong's side. At this moment, Linlong was meditating and cultivating. Just now when he crawled up from the ground, he directly consumed a top-grade healing pill and meditated to heal his injuries.
This was because he knew that the remaining four ferocious beasts were not a match for Elder Wang and the others at all.
Seeing that they had come over, Linlong opened his eyes.
"Young Master, are you alright?" Elder Wang asked with concern.
"I'm fine." Linlong shook his head. As he spoke, Linlong stood up.
Seeing that he was really fine, Elder Wang and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
After that, Linlong walked to the place that the five ferocious beasts were guarding. In his opinion, if there really was a secret passage in this palace that led to the northern palace, it should be here.
Therefore, he naturally began to examine it seriously.
Not only him, but Elder Wang and the others also came over to examine it carefully.
After a while, Elder Wang and the others all frowned because they couldn't see anything at all.
Only Lin Long stood where he was, seemingly thinking about something.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, Linlong suddenly moved. He took out another rune sword and slashed a few times at a brick in front of him.
When he attacked with the last sword, a "bang" sound was heard and the green tiles in front of him suddenly exploded. After the tiles exploded, a "ka ka ka" sound came from the ground.
Amidst these sounds, an opening suddenly appeared in the ground before them. Everyone looked towards the opening and saw a flight of stairs leading downwards.
"Looks like it really is the secret passage to the northern palace!" Yao Lei couldn't help but exclaim.
"We haven't figured it out yet, so it's hard to say. However, the possibility of it being a secret passage is very high," Elder Wang said.
"Let's go in," said Linlong.
As he spoke, he directly strode down. Before this, he had naturally circulated his Divine Sense to investigate and found that there was no danger below.
Seeing him enter, Elder Wang and the others hurriedly followed behind him.
Not long after, the two of them walked to the end of the stairs. At this time, they discovered that the space before them suddenly opened up. It was a passage that was five zhang wide and ten zhang tall. This passage was perfectly straight and seemed to be incomparably smooth. However, as they looked further ahead, it was pitch-black, and they couldn't tell what lay ahead.
Linlong didn't say anything and continued to walk forward.
Although they didn't sense any danger, Elder Wang and the others still hurriedly followed behind him.
After walking for a while, they discovered a wooden sign at the side. This wooden sign had a line of words written on it: "North-West Secret Passage, connecting the western and northern passages."
Seeing this, Hall Master Xing couldn't help but say, "Looks like this is really the secret passage to the northern palace."
"That should be it." Elder Wang and the others nodded in agreement.
"However, this secret passage doesn't seem to be dangerous. It's a little surprising," Yao Lei said.
"It just doesn't seem to be dangerous at the moment. Who knows, there might be danger waiting for us later," Yang Sheng said.
"Alright, let's not talk anymore. Let's continue forward," Linlong suddenly said.
Hearing Linlong's words, the five of them naturally didn't dare to say anything else. Instead, they silently followed behind Linlong.
After walking for an hour, a ferocious beast suddenly appeared in front of them. This ferocious beast was a black panther.
Looking at the black panther, Elder Wang and the others' faces couldn't help but change. They could sense the aura of a fifth tier ferocious beast from the black panther.
"This is probably a fifth tier ferocious beast!" Yao Lei said.
Hearing his words, the others immediately turned their gazes to Linlong. They had already completely trusted Linlong. Only when Linlong said that this was a fifth tier ferocious beast did they dare to believe him.
"That's right, this is a fifth tier ferocious beast." Linlong nodded.
His words immediately caused the hearts of Elder Wang and the others to tremble.
Soon after, Hall Master Xing asked doubtfully, "Why is this black panther standing still like the other five ferocious beasts?"
If it were an ordinary ferocious beast, it would have roared at them no matter what.
Elder Wang couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that this is also a runic beast?"
"It's indeed a runic beast," Linlong directly affirmed.
The experienced Linlong could tell that the black panther before him was a runic beast with a single glance.
He had also carefully examined the runic beast that was knocked down just now, but he discovered that the runes on it were too incomplete. There were also no books or knowledge to refer to, so there was no way for him to comprehend the runic beast. Thus, Linlong gave up on the idea of studying this runic beast.
Although the creation of such a runic beast would definitely be of great help to Linlong, he could only give up on it due to this reason.
Soon after, Yang Sheng couldn't help but furrow his brows, "If it's a fifth tier ferocious beast, we won't be a match for it at all."
He wasn't the only one. Elder Wang and the others also furrowed their brows.
Previously, they were only able to defeat the five ferocious beasts because Linlong had found the flaws in their joint attack technique. However, this was a fifth tier ferocious beast. How could it possibly have any flaws?
At this moment, Linlong suddenly said, "You guys try attacking it first."
It seems like young master Lin is trying to find the flaws of this runic beast again. Hearing Linlong's words, such a thought flashed through the minds of Elder Wang and the others.
Although they followed Linlong's instructions and activated the ice talismans to deal with the ferocious beast,
Once the five ice talismans were activated, waves of chilling air rushed towards the ferocious beast.
However, in the next instant, an even more powerful ice talisman emerged from the ferocious beast's body. The moment it appeared, it immediately suppressed the chilling air released by Elder Wang and the others.
Seeing that something was amiss, Elder Wang and the others hurriedly retreated. Only after retreating a certain distance did the chilling air released by the black panther disappear. This caused them to involuntarily heave a sigh of relief.
After giving it a try, they all focused their gazes on Linlong, wanting to see if he had found a solution.
However, Linlong shook his head and said, "It seems that we can't deal with it like how we dealt with the five ferocious beasts just now."
"Then what should we do?" Hearing this, Elder Wang and the others began to worry.
"Try learning the joint attack technique of the five ferocious beasts just now," Linlong said.
"We're learning the joint attack technique?" Hearing Linlong's words, Elder Wang and the others were dumbfounded.
They felt that Linlong was an idiot. After all, they had only fought the five ferocious beasts and did not learn anything from them at all.
"The chilling runes on the five ferocious beasts are the joint attack technique they activated. Although it looks very messy, through observing them, I managed to straighten out the joint attack technique. Then, I came up with the joint attack technique they activated." Linlong said with a faint smile.
Just now, he had Elder Wang and the others try different methods of attacking from different directions. Other than looking for flaws, he also wanted to understand the joint attack technique.
It can't be. They can comprehend the joint attack technique like this? Hearing Linlong's words, Elder Wang and the others could not help but sigh.
Other than his meticulous observation, the reason why Linlong was able to do this was because he was familiar with the joint attack technique. Otherwise, if it was someone else, no matter how intelligent they were, they would not be able to learn the joint attack technique from it.
However, in order to confirm whether the joint attack technique was correct or not, Elder Wang and the others still needed to test it out.
"Alright, I will now explain the joint attack technique. All of you listen carefully." Said Linlong.
Then, he began to teach them the joint attack technique.
After teaching for half a day, Elder Wang and the others finally gained an understanding of the joint attack technique. After another half a day of experimentation, they were finally able to use the joint attack technique.
Although it seemed like they had spent a day, if it was someone else, they might not even be able to achieve such an effect in half a year.
It could be said that if the creator of the joint attack technique knew that Linlong was able to do this in such a short period of time, he would likely be so shocked that he would tear open the lid of his coffin.
This was also due to Linlong's rich experience.
After mastering the joint attack technique, Elder Wang and the others naturally rubbed their palms together, wanting to deal with the runic beasts before them.
Linlong immediately said. "Alright, you guys can deal with the runic beasts now!"
Hearing his words, Elder Wang and the others immediately rushed in front of the black panther.
Then, they took out their grade 4 Ice Talismans and activated them. In a short period of time, waves of ice immediately attacked the black panther.
At the same time, the black panther's body also counterattacked with a wave of ice energy.
Elder Wang and the other four thought that they could immediately crush the black panther. However, as time passed, their expressions immediately became ugly.
This was because the ice energy released by the black panther was clearly above theirs. Although it was nothing for a short period of time, as time passed, they would definitely be at a disadvantage.
In other words, they could not do anything to the black panther.
Linlong knew that he could only temporarily abandon Elder Wang and the others.
He immediately said, "All of you hold this black panther back, I will directly rush over."
Elder Wang and the others also understood this point, and immediately nodded their heads. "Young Master Lin, we will hold it back."
Linlong did not have any hesitation, and directly rushed forward.
When he passed by the runic beast, it clearly wanted to stop Linlong.
However, because it was being held back by Elder Wang and the others, it could not stop him at all, and could only watch as Linlong left.
After bypassing the black panther, Linlong naturally became even more cautious. He was afraid that such a runic beast would appear in front of him again.
However, what he did not expect was that when he reached the end of the tunnel, he actually did not encounter any more danger.
Even so, Linlong secretly rejoiced. He knew that if he had not come up with a joint attack technique, he would not have been able to avoid that fifth-grade runic beast at all.
The end of the tunnel seemed to be a dead end, but after some observation, Linlong still found a mechanism.
After punishing this mechanism, the wall in front of him immediately opened up, and then a flight of stairs appeared.
After using his Divine Telekinesis to investigate, and after confirming that this flight of stairs was not dangerous, Linlong then stepped up.
After passing through this flight of stairs, he found that he had arrived at a rather exquisite looking stone house.
Before he could take a closer look, a runic beast suddenly jumped out from behind the stone table in the middle.
This runic beast was round, and it looked like a wild boar. Although it was a wild boar, it had the strength of a fifth-grade savage beast.
Linlong knew that he was no match for it at all.
Fortunately, after this savage beast jumped out, it did not attack him.
At this moment, only then did Linlong notice that there was a book on the stone table. The cover of the book was yellowed, and it seemed to be some kind of secret manual.
Linlong looked to his right and found that there was a door there.
This should be the palace in the north, Linlong thought to himself.
However, before he opened the stone door, he had no way of confirming this.
Before leaving, Linlong naturally wanted to get his hands on that secret manual.
However, what made him depressed was that once he got close to the stone table, the wild boar would block his way, even if he changed directions.
Obviously, this wild boar was guarding this book.
Linlong knew that he was no match for this wild boar, so he temporarily gave up on the idea of snatching the book, and instead walked in front of the stone door.
After reaching out to push the stone door open, he was sure that he had really arrived at the palace in the north.
He thought that the outside was obviously a grand hall.
This hall was similar to the hall in the west, but it was more dazzling. The items inside were completely carved from a type of rock that emitted a golden glow.
In comparison, the stone house that Linlong had just walked out of seemed very plain.
There was another difference, and that was that there were no runic beasts in the middle of this hall. Although there were no runic beasts, Linlong felt a bone-chilling coldness in the middle of the hall.
Linlong felt that if he walked in there, he would definitely be frozen into an ice sculpture.
It would be fine if he did not go there, and he would just study the knowledge related to fifth-grade frost talismans on the surrounding walls. Linlong made this decision in his heart.
With this thought, he immediately walked in front of a wall.
Like the hall in the west, the surrounding walls were also engraved with many words and runes.
