One and a half months later, Linlong arrived at a nameless mountain near Martial Art Mountain.
The mountain looked a little low, and the mountain was covered with jagged rocks. As there were very few resources on the mountain, very few people came here.
If Linlong did not have a map that accurately pointed to this place, he would not dare to believe that this was the location of the ruins.
After arriving at the belly of the nameless mountain, Linlong found a very hidden stone cave according to the map. After lighting a torch, Linlong walked along the stone cave.
The stone cave looked very dry. Other than the surrounding stones, there was nothing else.
In the beginning, the stones on the ground were uneven. It was not until Linlong walked for about 300 feet and pushed away a large stone in the middle of the road that the stones on the ground began to flatten. Linlong squatted on the ground and carefully looked at the situation under his feet. A smile appeared on his face.
This was because the terrain was obviously manmade. If there was no accident, this place should be the location of the ruins.
After that, Linlong continued to walk along the cave. The entire cave had a slight slope, which meant that the more Linlong walked, the lower he went.
After walking for over a thousand feet, the cave, which was originally almost the same size, suddenly doubled in size.
Then, the road under his feet became flatter. Linlong looked down and saw that the ground was paved with green stone bricks. Even the walls on both sides of the cave were leveled.
However, there was nothing special about it other than that.
After walking in such a cave for about 15 minutes, Linlong found that the road in front of him was blocked.
After hitting the sealed stone wall a few times, the stone wall did not budge at all.
Could it be that this road was blocked? This discovery made Linlong's mouth twitch.
Even if the ruins were really here, he could do nothing if the road was blocked. After all, he did not have the ability to move mountains and fill the sea.
Of course, Linlong would not give up so easily. After raising the torch, Linlong began to carefully look around.
Hard work paid off. Soon, he found some black silk threads on the wall. These silk threads were surprisingly similar to the silk threads in the runic array in the ancestral hall in the market.
At this time, Linlong was even more certain that this mountain was the location of the ruins.
What he needed to do now was to open up this cave.
Looking at the rune threads in front of him, Linlong suddenly recalled the insights he had gained from the rune threads. Although the insights he had obtained in the past were fragmented, the insights that had just emerged in his mind coincided with the rune threads in front of him.
In the next moment, Linlong muttered some strange runic terms and drew some hand seals.
After a few breaths, some rune threads that were originally invisible began to appear on the sealed walls. These rune threads crisscrossed and seemed to cover the entire wall.
After a while, the sealed stone wall began to rumble and tremble.
This trembling also lasted for a few breaths of time. After that, rocks began to fall from the sealed cave walls.
When everything calmed down, a small hole suddenly appeared in front of Linlong.
Without hesitation, Linlong bent his back and walked into the cave.
After walking for a few feet, the narrow stone cave suddenly widened, and a dazzling light shone from the front.
After walking for a short distance, Linlong immediately had a surprised expression on his face. This was because it was no longer a narrow cave, but a huge and dazzling palace.
In other words, there was actually such an uncanny existence underground. Even in his previous life, Linlong had never seen such a place.
Such a discovery made Linlong even more excited. The more such a place was, the more precious the treasures would be.
Soon after, Linlong was shocked because he discovered that the entire palace was shrouded in a runic array.
Compared to this place, the runic array in the ancestral hall in the market could be said to be pitifully small.
Such a large scale meant that this ruin was definitely left behind by a powerful Martial Sage-level warrior. A Martial Sage-level powerhouse. Thinking of this, Linlong's heart immediately burned.
The most important thing now was to enter this palace and obtain the valuable things inside.
Therefore, Linlong quickly abandoned these distracting thoughts in his heart and walked toward a door in the palace. After observing just now, he discovered that there was more than one door in the palace.
Soon, Linlong arrived in front of a door. This door was more than ten feet tall, and it made Linlong, who stood in front of it, feel inexplicably small.
The door was dark gold in color and looked extremely heavy.
Linlong stretched out his hand to push, but the door did not budge at all.
When he exerted more force, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his hand. Linlong, who retracted his hand, immediately looked a little ugly. This was because there was a small hole in his palm just now.
One had to know that his entire palm was protected by Qi just now.
Could there be something strange about this door?
Lin Long furrowed his brows and was just about to slam his fist against the door when he saw the runic lines on the door, which could not be seen at all, suddenly appear. Immediately after, a crisp sound rang out from the door.
"Below the age of 20 … Congratulations on obtaining temporary authority over the runic array."
This is?
Linlong, who was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of something and was immediately overjoyed. It was obvious that the voice came from the runic array's spirit. Generally speaking, the spirit's spiritual intelligence was not high, and it was only equivalent to a few years old.
As for why he had obtained such an inexplicable authority, Linlong guessed that it was because he was the first person to come here after many years.
After the mark left behind by the previous owner disappeared, it was very easy for a first person like him to obtain such an advantage.
The way to obtain authority was naturally by being pricked by the runic array when he touched the door and being sucked of his blood. Once his blood entered, the spirit would recognize it and obtain authority.
"Spirit, why is it only temporary authority?" Linlong hurriedly asked as he thought of something.
"Because you can only obtain permanent authority if you completely conquer this place." The voice came from the door again.
This spirit did not have a physical body, and only existed in the runic array.
Conquer this place? A trace of a smile appeared on Linlong's face when he thought about all the things that had happened before.
It seemed that this was a method left behind by the owner of the runic array to test those who entered. Even the runic array in the market was just a way to enter this place.
In the end, only those who could pass the test would be recognized and obtain the treasure.
But what if they could not pass the test? Linlong subconsciously turned his head, only to see that the hole he had just entered had disappeared.
