C1197 Hope

Lin Long realized that there were a few books inside that were related to Symbol Literature.

After taking it out to take a closer look, he realized that the knowledge contained within was actually something he had never seen before. What made him extremely happy was that these knowledge clearly had something in common with the Symbol Grammar Array in front of him.

Maybe after he finished reading these few books, he would be able to decipher the Symbol Grammar Array. Thinking about this, Lin Long immediately focused his attention on the basic books.

While looking at him, he compared the knowledge inside with the Symbol Grammar Array in front of his eyes.

Time slowly passed by. After an unknown amount of time, Lin Long finally finished reading these few books. After reading them, he fell into deep thought.

After an unknown period of time, Lin Long's face revealed a happy expression, he felt that he had found the trick to it, as though he was about to break a piece of paper.

But what made him helpless was that he could not find a way to pierce through this window paper no matter how hard he tried.

Maybe after he experimented for a bit, he would be able to find it. Thinking of this, Lin Long stopped these kind of bitter thoughts, walked to the front of the Symbol Grammar Array, and started to fiddle with it.

In the end, he was still helpless because no matter what he did, he was still unable to pierce through that layer of window paper.

Helplessly, Lin Long shifted his gaze to the old man. He realised that the old man had already opened his eyes.

"Old mister, I faintly feel that I can break this Symbol Grammar Array. It's just that no matter what, I was unable to break through the last layer of window paper. I wonder if you can give me some hints?" Lin Long asked.

Who knew that the other party would actually shake his head, "Don't ask me, because even I don't know how to break this Symbol Grammar Array."

"You don't know either?" Lin Long could not help but be surprised.

"Yes, even though I've been here for who knows how many hundred years, I still can't think of a way to break this Symbol Grammar Array." The old man shook his head and sighed.

"You've been stuck in there for so many years, if you want to break the Symbol Grammar Array, won't that be extremely difficult?" Lin Long could not help but ask.

"This is not the same. You are much more powerful than I am. I've been here for so many years, but I've never been able to say with certainty that I am inferior to that last layer of paper." The old man looked at Lin Long in admiration.

"Is that so?" Hearing the elder say this, Lin Long heaved a sigh of relief.

"You're in no hurry to continue thinking about it. First, listen to my story." The old man said again at this time.

"Alright." Lin Long nodded.

Then, the old man said, "This Symbol Grammar Array is actually the simplified version of the rune array used by the demons outside."

"Is it the simplification of the demon clan's rune array?" Lin Long could not help but be surprised.

It was only then that he understood why it was so difficult to break through the Symbol Grammar Array.

"That's right, it's a simplification of the demon clan's rune array." The old man nodded, then continued, "It seems like back then, the strength of the human race and the Spirit Demon race were equal, the reason that the divide was formed was because that year, the Spirit Demon race had an extremely talented Ranker, and not only was that expert strong, his talent in the Symbol Literature was also incomparable. At that time, he gathered some of the Charm Magician from the Spirit Demon race together, and then, he created the Spirit Demon race's unprecedented rune array.

"In the following days, we, the human race, were at a disadvantage everywhere. In order to break this Symbol Grammar Array, all of the experts in our race were gathered together, but, no matter how we thought about it, we could only simplify the other party's rune array into the Symbol Grammar Array in front of your eyes. It can't be broken at all."

"We hope that our descendants will be able to figure it out, but unfortunately, no one has this ability or talent. As the humans wither away, in order to preserve hope, all the strong have gathered once again and used some secret method to imprison my soul here, hoping for fate."

After hearing what the old man had said, Lin Long could not help but take out the devil sword, and then asked, "Then, what does this devil sword represent?"

After looking at the devil sword in Lin Long's hand for a moment, the old man said, "The purpose of this devil sword is to allow people with strong devil arts and strong divine will to enter this world, because only then would they be able to reach this place and have a better chance of breaking this Symbol Grammar Array."

After pausing for a moment, the old man continued, "Of course, the power of this devil sword is not ordinary either. However, no matter how extraordinary it is, there is no way to use it to break the Symbol Grammar Array."

"Then how should I control this demon sword?" Lin Long asked again.

He had thought of a lot of ways, but he was still unable to unleash the potential of the demon sword.

"Driving this demon sword requires a small trick within our sect. You are not a member of our sect, so naturally, it will be difficult for you. As long as I teach you this small trick, you will quickly grasp it." The old man said, and then, he began to teach Lin Long that little trick.

Once he started, Lin Long quickly understood the method to order the demon sword around.

Understanding this point, Lin Long asked again, "I have the seal of the Spirit Demon Fire Seed planted on me, I also have the formula to break it, but I lack the most important materials, I heard that there are some inside, is it true?"

"You're talking about that Thousand Spirit Grass, right?" The old man laughed.

"Exactly." Lin Long nodded.

"The Thousand Spirit Grass is behind this Symbol Grammar Array. If you can break through this Symbol Grammar Array, you'll be able to find that Thousand Spirit Grass." The old man said.

"Oh." Lin Long nodded.

"Alright, I won't disturb you any longer. Continue to work hard." With that, the old man closed his eyes once more.

On the other hand, Lin Long once again focused his attention on deciphering the Symbol Grammar Array. His words to the old man caused him to no longer be in a rush, and he became filled with confidence.

It should be known that with so many of them, they had to spend their entire lives without being able to come up with a solution, but as for him, in such a short period of time, he had pretty much deciphered the Symbol Grammar Array.

Once he had the confidence and was not in a hurry, Lin Long would quickly find the problem.

Once he found out the problem, and then carefully analyzed it, Lin Long's face revealed a trace of a smile.

And then, after a few tries, the Symbol Grammar Array before him actually made a "crackling sound." After this sound, the originally incomparably sturdy Symbol Grammar Array actually turned into nothingness.

"Heavens, he actually broke it!"

At this time, the old man who had been resting with his eyes closed also opened his eyes in shock. He could not believe what he was seeing.

Soon after, a smile immediately appeared on his face. "It seems like there's hope for us humans."

After that, he actually choked up. "How many years has it been? I thought there was no hope!"

Lin Long did not disturb him, but stood quietly by the side.

Very quickly, the old man recovered his composure, and a smile appeared on his face once again, he looked at Lin Long and said, "My apologies, I lost my composure, the Symbol Grammar Array has already been broken. You can pass through here and reach the opposite mountain peak, and you will find the Thousand Spirit Grass there.

"Alright." Lin Long nodded and then walked into the plaza.

After passing through the plaza, Lin Long reached the mountain peak at the back. This mountain peak looked very normal, but Lin Long quickly found the Thousand Spirit Grass inside.

When he found the Thousand Spirit Grass, he immediately started to refine the pill that broke the rune. With his abilities, he quickly refined that pill.

Once he consumed it, Lin Long's face revealed a smile, because he was sure that this pill would be useful.

Sure enough, after a while, the symbol that had been left in his body was directly destroyed by the pill.

After that, Lin Long once again returned to the plaza.

Seeing that Lin Long had returned, the old man immediately asked, "How was it, did you find the Thousand Spirit Grass?"

"I found it. Furthermore, it has already dissolved the symbols within my body." Lin Long nodded.

"Very good." The old man praised, "I didn't expect you to be an alchemist."

After pausing for a moment, the old man continued, "After you leave here, you can go to the Gu Yue Tower in the Gu Yue City of the Goblin Tribe." After you leave here, you can go to the Gu Yue Tower in the Gu Yue City of the Goblin Tribe.

"Gu Yue Tower?" Hearing the elder say this, Lin Long could not help but be a little surprised.

When he was in Gu Yue City, he had heard about Gu Yue Tower, but he had never expected that it was actually the location of the demon clan rune array array core.0

"Exactly." The old man affirmed.

"Alright then." Lin Long nodded.

"Alright, the future of the human race depends on you!" As he said this, the old man's body suddenly trembled. Following which, his figure actually became increasingly blurry.

"Sir, what are you doing?" Lin Long could not help but ask.

"The reason why my soul has always been able to stay in there is because of the Symbol Grammar Array. Since the Symbol Grammar Array has been broken, it is only natural that I will not be able to stay there for long. However, this is a type of release for me, because my mission is already completed!" The old man laughed.

"Don't worry, I will do the following things with my heart." Hearing the other party's words, Lin Long nodded his head heavily.

"Very good." The old man smiled in relief.

After that, his silhouette completely disappeared.

Then, Lin Long turned and walked forward with big strides.

In next to no time, he returned to the stone bridge from before. Beside the stone bridge stood a figure, and it was precisely Little Yi who brought him in earlier.

Seeing Lin Long, Xiao Yi could not help but widen his eyes. He thought that he was hallucinating and upon confirming that it was Lin Long, he shouted in joy, "Lin Gongzi, you're back?"

"That's right." Lin Long nodded.

"Then did you find a way to break through the demon clan's rune array?" Xiao Yi asked again.

"Found it." Lin Long nodded again.

"That's great!" Little Yi couldn't help but cry out in ecstasy.

"Little Yi, how long have I been in there?" Lin Long asked at this time.

"Three days." Little Yi nodded.

"Three days? That won't be long. Alright, let's go back." As he said that, Lin Long stepped onto the stone bridge.
