C180 Yard in the Cave
After that, Lin Long continued to hunt evil spirits in the cave, only leaving the sixth floor after spending almost all of his contribution points.
On the second day, Lin Long once again spent a certain amount of time to sell medicinal pellets like he had done the day before, and then he entered the Sixth Floor of the Treasure Pagoda.
In this cycle, a month's time gradually passed. In this period of time, Lin Long's strength had increased yet again, his Pure Yang Art had already reached the fifth layer, and it was not far from the final sixth layer.
His own strength had also reached the early eighth stage of the Martial Master Realm. No one in Purple Sun Sect would dare believe him if he spoke with such a speed.
In this period of time, Lin Long had met Nangong Yi twice, but Nangong Yi had always been chased away by him.
Although Nangong Yi was furious, but he could do nothing about it.
Of course, if he used all kinds of abilities, Lin Long had a great chance of defeating Nangong Yi. However, he didn't want to do that, because he didn't want to expose his own abilities.
As for killing Nangong Yi, this was something he did not want to do, because if anything happened to Nangong Yi, this Purple Sun Sect would definitely dig him out.
Of course, there was one more thing. In his heart, Nangong Yi had yet to reach the point where he wanted to be killed.
He had never thought of being merciful to the fairer sex. He, Lin Long, would not lose his way because of a woman.
At this time, Lin Long was in the pagoda hunting evil spirits, but he did not stay on the sixth floor.
The environment on the fifth floor was about the same as the sixth floor. The environment on the fifth floor was about the same as the sixth floor.
The lowest strength of the evil spirits at the sixth floor was equivalent to a practitioner at the fourth floor of the Martial Master Realm. However, on the fifth floor, the lowest strength was equivalent to a practitioner at the middle stages of the Martial Master Realm.
As for the fifth floor, there were very few caves that were easy to guard and difficult to attack like the one from before. Warriors that entered this place would easily be besieged, so if they did not form a team, very few disciples from the Purple Sun Sect would enter.
In this entire period of time, what made Lin Long a little surprised was that he actually didn't see that unusual evil ghost again, as if it had never existed.
"Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!"
Suddenly, a low roar came from the front, following that, three evil spirits pounced towards Lin Long from the cave in front.
It seemed that the evil spirits on the fifth floor were already able to emit such low roars due to their increased strength.
Lin Long immediately used his Mysterious Yang Palm Art to fight with these three evil spirits. After spending a lot of effort, he finally killed these evil spirits and obtained the Pure Yang energy from them.
Just as he finished storing the Pure Yang Qi, another three evil spirits rushed over. Not only that, two evil spirits suddenly appeared behind him and encircled him.
Lin Long frowned, he leaned on the cave wall behind him and started fighting with the evil spirits.
This cave was caved in slightly, so at most, there could be three half evil spirits attacking Lin Long at the same time, preventing Lin Long from being attacked by even more evil spirits.
After a series of fierce battles, Lin Long killed a few more evil spirits. When he obtained the pure Yang energy from them, they also completely turned into ashes.
And at this time, what Lin Long was surprised about, was that there were another five evil spirits surrounding him from both sides. Not only that, the surrounding area was filled with the low roars of evil spirits.
Could it be that another evil spirit had appeared again? It had been a very long time since such a situation had occurred, and Lin Long suddenly thought of something.
Because if it wasn't for that evil ghost, this situation wouldn't have happened.
If he continued to stay here, he would very likely be surrounded and attacked by these evil spirits. If he was lucky, he might be able to kill all of them.
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Long immediately gave up the idea of staying here and fighting with these evil spirits. Instead, he rushed towards the direction with the least amount of evil spirits.
After a few rounds of rushing and killing, he finally opened up a way to avoid being besieged by these evil spirits.
Of course, the most important thing was that although these evil spirits seemed to have received an order, their movements were still slow before they found their prey. If not, Lin Long would not be able to find a way out.
After heaving a sigh of relief, just as he was about to run forward, his gaze froze. This was because he discovered that not far away, among a group of evil spirits, there was a different one.
At this moment, it was staring straight at Lin Long, its clear red and black eyes revealing a hint of desire.
Sure enough, it was you who did this. Lin Long was also staring intently at the other party.
It seemed to realize that it was unable to do anything to Lin Long, so the evil ghost quickly hid itself.
As for the evil spirits that it had summoned, they too had unwittingly dispersed.
At this time, Lin Long suddenly released the rune space ring's spirit monkey.
"Spirit Monkey, follow along." Lin Long said in a low voice.
The Spirit Monkey nodded, with a look of understanding, it immediately chased after the place where the ghost had disappeared, while Lin Long followed behind the Spirit Monkey.
These days, although the development of the Spirit Monkey's power was slow, it accidentally awakened a tracking ability. Although the evil ghost was also made up of demonic energy like the other evil spirits, but it clearly had a different smell from the other evil spirits, so the Spirit Monkey could easily identify it.
During the period of tracking, they naturally encountered many evil spirits, but they were all killed by Lin Long.
As for the spirit monkey, because the blood in its body was different from a human's, it was rarely attacked by evil spirits. Of course, it wasn't that it didn't have blood, but it had dodged them all.
Those evil spirits that it avoided were quickly attracted to Lin Long, so they didn't pose much of a threat to it.
After a quarter-hour, the man and the monkey who were shuttling back and forth in the maze-like cave stopped in front of a cave.
Although he had just stopped, from afar, Lin Long discovered that this cave had a distinct and mysterious aura.
After carefully observing the area outside of the cave, a hint of surprise appeared on his face. This cave was not only long and narrow, but there were traces of human habitation within it.
There were even galleries, walls, and stone tables.
Could it be that the evil ghost was once a human? Lin Long even had this thought, but he quickly rejected it.
Maybe, it was just that someone once lived here, Lin Long thought.
"Spirit Monkey, what's the situation?" Lin Long asked the spirit monkey beside him in a low voice.
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
After talking for a bit, Lin Long found out that Spirit Monkey was sure that the other kind of evil ghost was inside the cave, but he wasn't sure where it was.
Lin Long nodded his head. After expressing his understanding, he kept the Spirit Monkey back into the rune space ring, and then quietly walked into the cave.
In front of him, there should be a living room, but there did not seem to be anything there. After confirming his suspicions, Lin Long walked along the long hall and entered.
The deeper he went, the more he was certain that someone had lived here before. However, that was only in the past. Right now, it was very likely that this place had already become the residence of that other type of evil ghost.
Very quickly, Lin Long arrived at an extremely large hall. There were a few tunnels in front of the hall that led to different places.
Just as he was hesitating on where to go, the low roars of the evil spirits rang out from the surrounding tunnels. Immediately, dozens of evil spirits rushed into the hall at the same time.
Lin Long's expression changed, and immediately rushed towards the room on the left with the door wide open, all the evil spirits that came along the way, but when he used his spirit fire, they were unable to stop him.
After clearing a path, Lin Long rushed into the room.
Upon entering the room, Lin Long frowned even more, because he realised that there were two white bones inside, and looking at their appearances, they had been dead for god knows how many years.
These two bones had two identity tokens as Purple Sun Sect's disciples. It was clear that these two were Purple Sun Sect's disciples, who had somehow arrived at this place a long time ago before being trapped inside by evil spirits.
It was so hard to find these two people here, and yet they could actually find them? Lin Long could not help but sigh in his heart, because even he, if not for the Spirit Monkey to lead him, would not have been able to find such a place.1
Were these two trapped inside, starving to death?
Thinking of something, Lin Long immediately closed the door. Once it closed, the evil spirits outside the room calmed down, but they did not leave.
Lin Long could feel that these evil spirits were surrounding him and attacking him crazily from all directions.
At this time, Lin Long also realised that the reason that the evil spirits did not enter the house was because runes were flickering inside. It was obvious that the power of the Runic Circle had stopped the evil spirits.
Lin Long no longer paid attention to the two bones on the ground, instead, he started to carefully observe his surroundings.
Because if he didn't think of a way, he would most likely end up like the two white bones on the ground.
However, after looking around, he found that other than some daily necessities such as combs, beds, and mirrors, there was nothing else useful in this room.
As for the tunnel, it was also something that did not exist.
"Am I really trapped here?" Lin Long muttered to himself.
Of course, he could also charge out, but even if he killed the evil spirits outside, he would have to pay a heavy price. Not to mention, he could feel that there were still many evil spirits rushing in his direction.
Suddenly, his eyes, which had been placed on the wall of the room, lit up.
