After spending some time, Lin Long led Qian Jiayi and the rest to the altar.
There was actually such a place on the fourth floor! Looking at the altar before them, everyone naturally sighed in their hearts.
After everyone sized it up, Lin Long led them to the passageway. Soon after, the runic beast jumped out again.
"You guys go and try. See if you can defeat this fierce beast!" Lin Long said to Qian Jiayi and the rest.
"Yes!"
After responding, Qian Jiayi and the other four immediately stood in front of the runic beast. Soon after, they activated the grade 5 ice talismans in their hands.
In the next instant, waves of cold air directly attacked the runic beast.
At the same time, the runic beast's body also attacked them.
At the start, they seemed to be evenly matched. However, after a short while, their expressions turned ugly. This was because the icy cold air released by the runic beast was clearly stronger than theirs.
Linlong, who noticed this, immediately said, "You're no match for it. Retreat!"
If they were not a match for it, it would be a complete waste of effort. If they were injured, the gains would not make up for the losses. Hence, Lin Long naturally told them to immediately retreat.
After hearing Lin Long's words, Qian Jiayi and the rest hurriedly retreated.
Seeing that the runic beast did not continue to attack them, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon after, Lin Long looked towards Zhao Ying and said, "Zhao Ying, you retreat. Let me and the others deal with this runic beast."
The reason for this was naturally because Lin Long was much stronger than Zhao Ying. Moreover, his understanding of the combination attack technique was something that Zhao Ying and the rest could not compare to.
Zhao Ying immediately retreated. As for Lin Long, he stood in the middle of Qian Jiayi and the rest.
Soon after, the five of them surrounded the runic beast and activated the grade 5 ice talismans in their hands.
Waves of icy cold air once again enveloped the runic beast. At this time, Qian Jiayi and the rest revealed expressions of joy. This was because after Lin Long replaced Zhao Ying, the icy cold air they released was clearly stronger than before.
After a while, the joy on their faces intensified. This was because they had completely suppressed the runic beast before them.
At this rate, it would not be long before they defeated the runic beast.
Sure enough, not long after, the runic beast was defeated by them.
After defeating this Rune Beast, Linlong led the group forward. He had a feeling that more Rune Beasts would appear, and they would be even more difficult to deal with.
As expected, after every few steps, two runic beasts would jump out from behind the two pillars.
As he stared at the two Runic Beasts, Linlong's eyebrows immediately furrowed. Individually, they were clearly stronger than the previous one. It was fine if they were individually strong, but there were two of them. Naturally, it would be much more difficult to defeat them.
"We were so close to reaching the altar, but two more came out!" Seeing the two rune beasts, everyone couldn't help silently cursing.
"These two rune beasts are clearly stronger than the previous one. I don't know if we can handle one of them." Qian Jiayi began to worry.
It was the same for the others.
"Let's give it a try first. Let's see if the other one will just stand by and watch when we attack it," Linlong said.
Currently, there were only seven of them who could activate the Grade 5 Ice Talisman. It was simply impossible to form two groups and use a joint attack technique. Hence, they could only test the strength of one of the Rune Beasts. If they couldn't even handle one, or if they attacked together, they could only leave.
After speaking, Linlong stepped forward. Qian Jiayi and the other three also stood beside him.
Then, they surrounded one of the Rune Beasts. In the process, they directly activated the Grade 5 Ice Talisman in their hands.
Waves of icy cold energy directly enveloped the Rune Beast.
At this instant, the two Rune Beasts simultaneously rushed toward them. At the same time, their bodies emitted a powerful icy cold energy.
"Quickly retreat!" Linlong hurriedly shouted.
He had already tested the strength of the two Rune Beasts. He knew that they wouldn't be able to gain any advantage under the attacks of these two Rune Beasts. Hence, he hurriedly ordered everyone to retreat.
As he shouted these words, Linlong also rapidly retreated.
At the same time, the others also retreated.
Before the two Rune Beasts could harm them, they had already retreated to a safe distance.
"These two Rune Beasts are so strong!" Miao Feng said with lingering fear.
He had a feeling that if they didn't retreat in time, they would definitely be heavily injured by the two Rune Beasts.
At this moment, Linlong said, "They are indeed very strong. The strength of these two Rune Beasts is already comparable to an expert who has completely mastered the Grade 5 Ice Talisman."
"Are they that strong?" Hearing Linlong's words, the others were astonished.
Previously, they could only see that the two Rune Beasts were strong. They simply didn't expect them to be this strong.
"However, don't worry. The combination of the five of us can still deal with a single Runic Beast. The only difficulty is that if we deal with one, the other will come over to help," Linlong said. "Don't worry.
"If that's the case, won't we not be able to pass this trial?" Dong Luo's expression was ugly.
"We can. However, we first have to leave this place and go to the outside world to raise our strength," Linlong said.
"That's the only way." The others immediately nodded in agreement.
Subsequently, Linlong could only lead the others away from this place.
At this moment, smiles appeared on the faces of the emperor and the others. This was because the Runic Magic Array before them had already stabilized. They could once again open the passage.
However, such smiles disappeared in a flash. From the situation before them, it was very likely that they could only pass through a few people like before.
However, this was still better than no one going in to stop Qian Jiayi and the others.
As they prepared to open the passage, the emperor directly ordered a few people who could completely activate the Grade 5 Ice Talisman to stand at the front. Once the passage was opened, they were to immediately rush in.
After a while, the passage was opened. Indeed, as expected, it was still unstable.
At this moment, the few people that were previously arranged immediately rushed towards the passage.
Three of them quickly rushed over, but the fourth person encountered trouble again. However, this time, it wasn't as bad as the previous person. He was only bounced back by an invisible force.
Even so, this person broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't want to end up like the previous person and lose an arm.
One of the three people who rushed in was Eunuch Wu.
With a flash of white light, he found himself in a dense forest. Eunuch Wu was very familiar with the fourth level, so he knew that he was in the periphery.
He also expected that he wasn't with the others. After all, the Runic Magic Array was too unstable when they entered, so the chances of them appearing in the same place were very low.
Knowing that Linlong and the others weren't in the periphery, he directly rushed in.
He didn't think of meeting up with the others, mainly because he could completely activate the Grade 5 Ice Talisman. In his opinion, even if Linlong and the others used the joint attack technique, they wouldn't be a match for him.
As Eunuch Wu rushed in, Linlong and the others had already found a land of opportunity.
Linlong immediately let the others comprehend it.
This time, they had gained a lot. This was because Qian Jiayi and the others had improved. Apart from that, Wang Yingxiang and Young Master Gu had also achieved a breakthrough. In other words, they could already activate Grade 5 Ice Talisman.
After being able to activate Grade 5 Ice Talisman, the two of them were so happy that they jumped up and down like children.
During this period of time, the two of them had actually been very depressed. After all, the others could already control Grade 5 Ice Talisman, but the two of them couldn't.
Now that they had finally broken through this layer of window paper, the two of them were naturally elated.
After this, Linlong brought them away and headed to the next land of opportunity.
Very soon, they arrived at the next land of opportunity.
They were able to find the land of opportunity so quickly because Linlong had already memorized the places they had passed by. Otherwise, they would have spent half a day.
They didn't gain much from this land of opportunity, so they left after two hours.
Such a situation did not surprise them. After all, not every fortuitous encounter would immediately improve greatly, especially on the fourth level.
After leaving the land of opportunity, Linlong looked to the left ahead because he vaguely sensed that there was someone in that direction.
He immediately said to the others, "Everyone, stop!"
"Young Master, what's wrong?" Qian Jiayi, who was beside him, asked in confusion.
"There's someone on the left ahead. A person!" Linlong said with certainty.
In this short period of time, he was already certain of this.
"Could it be Eunuch Liu?" Qian Jiayi asked.
"Let's give it a try." Linlong released the bamboo rat as he said that.
After sensing it, the bamboo rat's feedback was that the person on the left ahead was not Eunuch Liu.
"It's not Eunuch Liu." Linlong immediately shook his head.
"If it's not Eunuch Liu, could it be the last person? Or did the emperor send someone else in? "Qian Jiayi couldn't help but frown.
Hearing her words, the others naturally became worried.
"We'll know once we take him down," said Linlong.
During this period of time, Qian Jiayi and the others' strength had improved, so he didn't have to worry about encountering powerhouses who could completely activate level-five ice talismans.
"Then … Should we surround him?" Qian Jiayi asked.
"No need. Just wait here. All of you stand still. I'll make a strange sound, and that person will come quickly," said Linlong.
"Okay." Everyone nodded immediately.
Seeing that everyone was ready, Linlong immediately slashed the big tree in front of him.
Such a sound obviously attracted the attention of the person in that direction because that person immediately walked in that direction.
Not long after, that person arrived not far ahead of them.
"That person is Li Tong. He's a general!" Qian Jiayi, who was next to Linlong, whispered.
Nodding, Linlong immediately said, "Let's go out!"
As soon as he said that, he immediately rushed over. As soon as he saw a figure appear, Li Tong was shocked and subconsciously retreated. He didn't expect that the figure that appeared was obviously faster than him and quickly blocked in front of him.
At the same time, Qian Jiayi and the others also arrived behind him.
When he turned around and saw that it was Qian Jiayi and the others, Li Tong couldn't help but frown. "It really is you guys!"
"Lord Li, how many people came in this time? Other than you, who else came?" Qian Jiayi asked.
Li Tong didn't answer. Instead, he said coldly, "Qian Jiayi, aren't you afraid that your whole family will be executed for going against His Majesty like this?"
"Lord Li, I was forced by the situation!" Qian Jiayi said with a frown.
"Forced by the situation? Let me tell you, your Qian Family is already under control. Your father has even been brought to the place of opportunity outside. If you continue to go against His Majesty, I'm afraid that your entire Qian Family will disappear from the Ice Peak Country! "Li Tong said coldly.
"Lord Li, do you think that if I surrender now, His Majesty will let me and the Qian Family off?" Qian Jiayi said.
"Of course he won't let you off, but your Qian Family won't be so miserable," Li Tong said.
"You're wrong. Even if Miss Qian doesn't surrender, she will be fine, and the Qian Family will be fine," Linlong said calmly.
At this moment, his words carried a kind of pressure, causing Li Tong to feel an indescribable sense of fear.
Li Tong, who was alarmed, couldn't help but look at Linlong and ask, "Who are you?"
"Who I am isn't important. What's important is that Lord Li is probably unable to leave this place safely," Linlong said with a calm smile.
"Hehe, I'm an expert who can activate a grade 5 frost talisman. What do you think you can do to me?" Li Tong couldn't help but laugh.
When he thought of his strength, the indescribable fear he felt earlier disappeared.
"You'll know once you try," Linlong said.
After saying that, he began to silently recite the rune terminology. Qian Jiayi and the other three also followed suit.
"A joint attack technique? It can only deal with weaklings like Eunuch Liu. It won't work against a top-notch expert like me! "Li Tong sneered.
Like Eunuch Wu, he didn't care about the joint attack technique of Linlong and the others. After all, they were the pinnacle existences in the entire Frigid World.
After saying that, he hurriedly activated the grade 5 frost talisman in his hand.
In the next instant, waves of frost energy shot towards Linlong and the others.
In the beginning, he seemed to have gained the upper hand. This even made him feel complacent.
However, before he could rejoice, his expression immediately changed. He discovered that the frost energy released by Linlong and the others was becoming stronger and stronger.
At this rate, they would soon be able to crush his frost energy.
No, I have to leave quickly. Otherwise, I'll really die here! When he saw this, he immediately thought of escaping.
In the next instant, he disregarded everything else and charged towards the weakest direction of Linlong and the others.
