"Greetings, Young Master Lin!" Yang Sheng and Shi Xu hurriedly greeted Lin Long.
Lin Long looked at the two of them and said coldly, "I heard that the two of you have been wavering."
Lin Long's words caused the two of them to break out in cold sweat.
Shi Xu rolled his eyes and hurriedly said, "Young Master Lin, you've misunderstood. Why would we waver? We just wanted to numb Elder Wei and the others. We wouldn't betray you at all!"
Lin Long immediately frowned when he heard this. He clearly felt that Shi Xu wasn't speaking the truth.
"Is that so? Then let me give it a try!" Lin Long suddenly walked over to Shi Xu.
Shi Xu was shocked and hurriedly retreated. At the same time, he subconsciously said, "Young Master Lin, what are you doing?"
However, before he could finish speaking, Lin Long had already placed a restriction on him.
How could Shi Xu endure the activation of the restriction? He quickly begged for mercy, "Young Master Lin, I was indeed wavering a little … Please … forgive me …"
Lin Long only removed the restriction when he saw Shi Xu like this.
Before he could catch his breath, Yang Sheng said, "Young Master Lin, we were indeed wavering a little … but I hope you won't blame us. After all, the enemy is too strong!"
Shi Xu also said, "Young Master Lin, we really don't know what to do … but it's really because the enemy is too strong."
"Then I'll give the two of you a chance now. Do you want to side with Elder Wei and the others, or do you want to side with me?" Lin Long said indifferently.
"Of course we want to side with you!" Shi Xu hurriedly said.
He didn't want to try Lin Long's restriction again.
"Of course we want to side with you!" Yang Sheng added.
"Alright." Lin Long nodded and then said, "However, I know that both of you don't mean what you say. In order to make both of you have no doubts, let me show you something!"
As he spoke, Lin Long took out a Violet Flame Talisman.
Although the Violet Flame Talisman hadn't been activated, there was a faint purple flame on it.
Moreover, as soon as it was taken out, Yang Sheng and Shi Xu felt a warm current in the surrounding space.
Obviously, the warm current was because of the talisman.
"Is this a Violet Flame Talisman?" Shi Xu couldn't help but ask.
"That's right. This is a Purple Flame Talisman." Linlong nodded.
After confirming that it was the Purple Flame Talisman, Shi Xu and Yang Sheng were naturally extremely shocked. Although Linlong had obtained the essence blood of the purple tiger, the Purple Flame Talisman was, after all, a legend.
They didn't expect Linlong to be able to create the Purple Flame Talisman.
With this Purple Flame Talisman in hand, even if an expert who could activate a Rank 5 Ice Talisman came to deal with Young Master Lin, he would still be able to escape!
Recalling Elder Wang's words, the two of them immediately hardened their hearts.
Both of them nodded and said, "Young Master Lin, we will definitely follow your lead from now on!"
"That's great. Let's head to the Catacombs now!" Linlong said.
Thus, he instructed Elder Wang to bring Yao Lei and Hall Master Xing over as well.
When the five of them arrived, he immediately brought them to the entrance of the Catacombs.
This action was naturally noticed by Elder Wei's people. By the time Linlong arrived at the entrance, there were already many pairs of eyes watching them.
Linlong didn't enter immediately. Instead, he used his divine sense to probe around.
He heaved a sigh of relief when he discovered that there was no one around who could activate a Rank 5 Ice Talisman. It was obvious that the two people who could activate the Rank 5 Ice Talisman were not here.
He didn't know if something happened that gave him this opportunity.
Linlong didn't hesitate anymore and directly walked into the entrance.
He didn't notice that when they entered the Catacombs, one of the two people guarding the side had a faintly discernible talisman in his hand that suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Not long after they entered the Catacombs, an old man wearing an elder's robe arrived at the entrance.
Elder Wei, who had been waiting at the entrance, immediately walked over and greeted respectfully, "Greetings, Third Elder!"
It was obvious that this old man who had just arrived was the Third Elder who could activate the Rank 5 Ice Talisman.
"Mhm." The Third Elder nodded and then asked, "Have they already entered?"
"Linlong and the others have already entered. When they entered, we also activated the Sensory Talisman. Linlong and the others didn't notice them," Elder Wei hurriedly replied.
"Very good, then let's go in and capture them!" The Third Elder immediately said.
He had spent a huge amount of money to create that Sensory Talisman. If it wasn't for the fact that he was afraid that Linlong and the others would not dare to enter after discovering an expert like him, he wouldn't have been willing to waste such a Sensory Talisman.
Immediately, the Third Elder strode into the Catacombs while Elder Wei and the others followed behind him.
The moment they entered the Catacombs, Elder Wei took out a piece of talisman. This talisman was extremely transparent. If an ordinary person didn't look carefully, they wouldn't notice it at all.
After taking out the talisman, the Third Elder silently recited a runic term. In the next moment, the talisman started to burn. At the same time, hundreds of runes appeared in front of the Third Elder. After a moment, they suddenly flashed and disappeared into the Third Elder's body.
This was the effect of the Sensory Talisman.
Seeing that the Sensory Talisman had taken effect, Elder Wei hurriedly said, "Third Elder, have you already sensed their location?"
"Yes, I have already sensed their location. They are currently heading towards the west." The Third Elder nodded.
Immediately, he led Elder Wei and the others in hot pursuit.
The few of them pushed their speed to the limit. Since the Third Elder was the fastest, he was the first to catch up to Linlong and the others.
By the time Linlong felt that something was wrong, the Third Elder was already in front of Linlong and the others.
This was naturally due to the Third Elder's extremely fast speed.
Looking at the Third Elder in front of him, Linlong's face darkened. He didn't expect the other party to be able to find them and even follow them like this.
"Third Elder!" At this moment, Elder Wang and the others who clearly saw the other party's identity were greatly alarmed.
Even if Elder Wang and the others didn't cry out in alarm, Linlong would still be able to tell who the other party was. This was because the other expert who could activate the Grade 5 Ice Talisman could not enter the Catacombs. Therefore, the person in front of him was definitely the Third Elder.
"Third Elder, may I know what business you have with me?" Linlong's face darkened.
Instead of answering, the Third Elder looked at Linlong and asked, "You are Linlong, right?"
"That's right." Linlong nodded.
"I didn't expect a new disciple like you to have such strength at such a young age … Moreover, it seems like you have improved so much in such a short period of time. It seems like you are a genius among geniuses!" The Third Elder said.
There was no false emotion in his words. It was obvious that he really admired Linlong for being able to achieve such a feat.
"Thank you for your compliment, Third Elder," Linlong replied.
At this moment, the Third Elder changed the topic and said, "However, it was wrong of you to poison Yan Liang … Seeing that you are very talented, I will give you a chance. As long as you hand over the antidote to that poison and acknowledge me as your master, I will not let Yan Liang and the others cause trouble for you again!"
It was obvious that he was tempted by a genius like Linlong.
Hearing his words, Linlong could not help but say, "Third Elder, I am very sorry. I am afraid that I cannot do that!"
"Cannot do that? Are you saying that you want to be my enemy? "The Third Elder's face darkened as he said coldly.
"That is the only way," Linlong said fearlessly.
"Hehe, since you want to experience the power of a fifth-grade frost talisman, I will grant you your wish!" The Third Elder sneered.
At this moment, Elder Wei and the others had already caught up.
After looking at them, the Third Elder took out his fifth-grade frost talisman.
What surprised him was that Linlong had no intention of taking out the frost talisman.
"What's wrong, kid? You don't dare to fight me?" The Third Elder mocked.
"Of course not. I will let them fight you." Linlong smiled indifferently.
"Them? Hehe, are you trying to send them to their deaths? "The Third Elder sneered.
"Of course not. It is because they have the strength to fight a fifth-grade frost talisman!" Linlong said.
After saying that, he waved his hand, and Elder Wang and the others stepped forward.
"I don't understand you guys. Why do you insist on standing on this kid's side? Don't you know that the Third Elder can activate a fifth-grade frost talisman? "Elder Wei, who stood behind the Third Elder, said coldly.
He had always wanted to drive a wedge between Yao Lei, Yang Sheng, and Lin Long, and make them go against Linlong. Now that the situation had turned out like this, he gave up.
"Why? Elder Wei, you will understand if you look carefully, "Elder Wang said.
As they spoke, the five of them took out their fourth-grade frost talisman.
"No matter what, a fourth-grade frost talisman can only be used against someone who can activate a fourth-grade frost talisman. It has no way to deal with a fifth-grade frost talisman, no matter how many people you have. I really don't know why you think that you can deal with a fifth-grade frost talisman with numbers! "The Third Elder sneered.
After saying that, he silently recited the rune terminology.
Elder Wang, Yang Sheng, and the others also silently recited the rune terminology at the same time.
In the next moment, six frost talisman started burning at the same time.
At this moment, the frost energy released by the Third Elder's fifth-grade frost talisman was clearly stronger than that of Elder Wang and the others.
In an instant, ice shards formed on Elder Wang and the others' bodies.
"They can't even withstand a single blow!" This situation made Elder Wei and the others' faces surge with a pleased expression.
However, astonished expressions quickly appeared on their faces. That was because the cold energy released by Elder Wang's group of five quickly became stronger.
Moreover, it wasn't just a little stronger. It seemed to be comparable to the frost energy released by the Third Elder.
How is this possible? Didn't they activate the fourth-grade frost talisman? How can the frost energy released be so strong? This situation caused Elder Wei and the others to reveal astonished expressions.
This was because the frost talisman released by Elder Wang and the others was completely comparable to a fifth-grade frost talisman.
The Third Elder's expression suddenly changed as he thought of something. He then asked, "Is this a joint attack technique?"
"As expected of the Third Elder, you were able to see through it with a single glance … That's right, they used a combination attack. Because of this, they were able to contend against the fifth-grade frost talismans!" Linlong said indifferently.
"A joint attack technique? What is that? "
Those who didn't understand the joint attack technique were immediately baffled.
Those who understood the joint attack technique revealed an expression of extreme astonishment like the Third Elder.
This was because the joint attack technique had long been lost. Normally, the four of them activating the frost talisman at the same time couldn't be considered a joint attack technique.
Where did these people learn the joint attack technique from? For a moment, such a thought emerged in everyone's mind.
While everyone was still in shock, the situation on the battlefield changed once again. Originally, Elder Wang and the others seemed to be able to contend against the Third Elder. However, the Third Elder's frost energy quickly gained the upper hand.
The Third Elder, who inwardly heaved a sigh of relief, coldly said, "Although this joint attack technique is very powerful, a fourth-grade frost talisman is still a fourth-grade frost talisman. There's no way it can defeat a fifth-grade frost talisman!"
This situation didn't surprise Linlong. He already knew that this would happen. Of course, he knew that what the Third Elder said was only part of the reason. The other reason was that the Third Elder had a rather deep understanding of fourth-grade frost talisman.
Given Elder Wang's current joint attack technique, he could at most deal with someone who had just mastered fourth-grade frost talisman. Therefore, he naturally wasn't a match for the Third Elder.
The Third Elder continued, "Linlong, if this is all you can rely on, you've lost!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the frost energy he activated suddenly became even more intense.
Elder Wang and the others, who were originally able to withstand it, were instantly shivering from the cold. From the looks of it, they wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer if this continued.
At this moment, Linlong smiled and said, "Third Elder, you're wrong. This is not all I can rely on."
"Oh, what else do you have?" The Third Elder raised an eyebrow.
At this moment, he didn't think that Linlong was joking.
In the next moment, Linlong took out a talisman. The moment this talisman was taken out, it immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding people. This was because they discovered that there was a faintly discernible purple flame on the talisman.
Not only that, but the moment it was taken out, a warm current immediately spread throughout the place.
When the Third Elder and the others activated the frost talisman, this talisman actually emitted a warm current when it was taken out. They could immediately tell that this talisman was extraordinary.
"Could this be a Purple Flame Talisman?" The Third Elder couldn't help but exclaim.
Those who knew what a Purple Flame Talisman was also extremely shocked.
It can't be, right? Where did Linlong get a Purple Flame Talisman from? For a moment, everyone was astonished.
"That's right, this is a Purple Flame Talisman," Linlong said indifferently.
"Kid, where did you get it?" The Third Elder hurriedly asked.
At this moment, his voice was clearly trembling. It was obvious that he was shocked by the Purple Flame Talisman.
He actually didn't believe that Purple Flame Talismans still existed. However, everything that the talisman in Linlong's hand displayed was clearly a genuine Purple Flame Talisman.
He had no choice but to believe it.
