1245: C1245 Identity of the Old Man

C1245 Identity of the Old Man

"I don't know." Pan Yi shook his head.

"Oh, then let's go to the dark room and take a look." Lin Long immediately replied.

After that, Lin Long called Huo Zhengcheng and the others over.

When they arrived, Huo Zhengcheng and the others were stunned, because they realized that Pan Yi had obviously aged a few years.

"Elder Pan, what are you doing?" Li Yiming could not help but ask.

"Sect Master Li, don't worry. This is the side effect of using the Prophecy Technique. You just need to take the pill given by Young Master and rest for a while longer." Pan Yi could not help but laugh.

"That's good." Li Yiming heaved a sigh of relief.

"It seems that you really are a prophet!" At this time, Master Pu Zi could not help but ask.

Previously, he only felt that Pan Yi should be a prophet, but now, looking at Pan Yi's appearance, he naturally believed it even more.

"Elder Pan, what did you discover when you used this divination technique?" Huo Zhengcheng said.

"I found that there is indeed a secret chamber in this ruin. However, I don't know what's inside, but I'll take a look and see." Pan Yi replied.

"What do you mean, young master?" Huo Zhengcheng could not help but look at Lin Long.

"Of course I'm going to take a look at the ruins." Lin Long said directly, and then said to Pan Yi, "Elder Pan, lead us there."

Soon after, the group of people arrived at the ruins. When they saw that everyone had returned, the old man seemed to not be surprised and continued to stay where he was.

However, with Lin Long's powerful divine sense, he could clearly feel the look of surprise in the other party's eyes.

After nodding and greeting the old man, Lin Long and the rest entered the ruins. After searching for a while, Pan Yi brought them to a broken cliff.

"This should be the location of the ruins." Pan Yi pointed to the front of the broken wall.

"Why does this place look so familiar?" Master Pu Zi asked doubtfully.

Just a breath's time later, he immediately said joyfully, "Previously, I also sensed a place like this, but it was very blurry and I was unable to confirm where it was. Now that I'm here, I can finally react to the place I sensed before."

Hearing his words, everyone couldn't help but nod their heads. Clearly, this was the secret room.

"But, how should I find the entrance to the dark room?" Someone asked curiously.

"Do I have to dig three feet into the ground?" Some people said this.

Then, everyone looked at Pan Yi.

Unexpectedly, Pan Yi shook his head, "I also sensed that this is the place, but I didn't know how to enter it."

After hearing that, everyone could not help but turn their gaze to Lin Long.

When they looked at Lin Long, they discovered that he was deep in thought, as if he didn't hear what they had said.

Seeing Lin Long like this, they, who understood what Lin Long was thinking, immediately calmed down.

After a while, Lin Long suddenly walked a few steps forward, and then squatted down, wiping the stone tiles on the ground with his hands.

With this wipe, everyone couldn't help but be puzzled. They discovered that this stone brick was very ordinary. There wasn't anything wrong with it.

But after a while, when Lin Long wiped a few more pieces, their faces revealed a surprised expression, because they realised that the stone bricks that Lin Long wiped had lines connecting together were impressively connected to each other in a strange pattern.

Those who were familiar with runes immediately walked forward to carefully study it. However, they soon frowned as they discovered that they had never seen this rune before.

"Could it be that symbol?" Pan Yi, who was thinking about something, could not help but ask like this.

"It's unknown, but even I haven't seen this type of symbol before." Lin Long said.

"Then there's an eighty to ninety percent chance that it's just too one symbol." Huo Zhengcheng and the rest's eyes lit up.

"However, I've only discovered symbols like these. How do I find the entrance?" Afterwards, they were puzzled once more.

Lin Long did not say anything, but used his palm to strike at the stone bricks below the ground.

After striking out a dozen of times, Lin Long finally stopped. Just when everyone was wondering why there were no changes, a "Kacha Kacha" sound came from beneath their feet.

"There's a mechanism here, that means it's the entrance to the dark room!" Someone could not help but shout out in joy.

Lin Long's face revealed a smile, and just as he was about to slap them a few more times to do the same, the old man who was protecting the ruins suddenly walked in front of them.

Just as everyone was about to ask him what he was going to do, he suddenly chanted the strange inscriptions in silence. Under this kind of mutterings, countless runes appeared all around him.

Seeing these Runes, everyone could not help but be shocked, because they realised that these Runes were actually similar to the Runes Lin Long had taken out.

"This old man is not an ordinary person!" Seeing the old man reveal such a move, Huo Zhengcheng and the rest were all surprised.

"Rise!" At that moment, the old man let out a loud shout.

With such a loud shout, everyone felt their vision blur, and then they actually appeared in an illusory space.

"What's going on? Could it be that we entered some secret plane? " They all cried out in surprise.

What made them heave a sigh of relief was that not just one of them had entered, but all of them had come to this place.

"Lin Gongzi, what's going on?" Immediately, they all looked at Lin Long and asked.

Just as they asked this question, the old man opposite of them shouted, "Attack!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately felt a buzzing sound come from their heads. This sound made them feel very uncomfortable.

"It's all that old guy's fault. Everyone, quickly get rid of him!" Huo Zhengcheng and the rest exclaimed.

Afterwards, they directly charged towards each other, but just as they started moving, they started shouting while covering their heads.

This was because in such a short period of time, the buzzing sound became increasingly rapid. It was so fast that it seemed as if their heads were about to explode, making them unable to concentrate on other things.

"This is a spiritual will attack. Everyone, quickly meditate and meditate to resist!" Huo Zhengcheng, who had finally reacted, quickly shouted.

After shouting, he immediately sat down and used his martial arts to resist. At this moment, he couldn't care less about the others.

The others also followed one after another, but what made them depressed was that no matter how they circulated their inner force techniques, they couldn't suppress the buzzing in their minds.

A moment later, the weaker ones shouted and fell to the ground.

As time passed, more and more people fell and in the end, only Huo Zhengcheng and a few others remained. But, even if it was Huo Zhengcheng, he knew that he could not hold on for long.

What kind of Symbol Grammar Array was this?! Huo Zhengcheng was extremely shocked.

To be honest, he had only heard about this kind of spiritual will attack and had never seen it before. How could he have known that the first time he saw such a powerful attack was already like this?

What caused Huo Zhengcheng to heave a sigh of relief was that even at this time, when he was unable to resist, Lin Long was still standing by the side, just like when he first came in, and there was no discomfort on his face either.

Lin Gongzi was still the strongest, he couldn't help but praise in his heart.

Although he admired, he was still worried for Lin Long, because the divine will attack of the Symbol Grammar Array was just too strong.

It was at this moment that the old man let out a cold snort.

Following his voice, Huo Zhengcheng felt that the buzzing sound was even louder.

If this attack continued, even the Lin Gongzi would not be able to withstand it. He couldn't help but start to worry.

After that, he couldn't hold on any longer and felt his head sink down. Then, he fainted and fell to the ground.

Huo Zhengcheng was the last person to faint, excluding Lin Long. In other words, at this moment, only Lin Long and the old man were still clear-headed.

At this time, the old man actually stopped, and his gaze landed on Lin Long.

"Young man, the strength of your spiritual will is truly beyond my expectations." He suddenly spoke up.

"I'm afraid you're just a soul." Lin Long said.

"You actually know about it!" The old man couldn't help but be surprised.

"It's simple. If you didn't have a soul with a powerful divine will, it would be impossible for you to use such a powerful divine will to activate the Symbol Grammar Array at your age." Lin Long said lightly.

Even with Lin Long's experience, he could easily see through this point. What made him confused was that he did not notice at all that his opponent was a soul that stole a person's body.

"That's true." The elder nodded before saying, "What about you? You are so young, how can you possess such powerful spiritual will?"

"Me? To be honest, there's no way to explain it with this world's knowledge." Lin Long said.

"What should I say?" The old man could not help but be confused.

Lin Long did not answer, but suddenly activated the profound energy on his body, and in the next moment, several different colored flames emerged from his body.

"You want to break the array? It's not that simple!" The old man said coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he pointed his finger forward and roared, "Attack!"

Immediately following that, a buzzing sound came out in the whole space. If Huo Zhengcheng and the rest were still awake, they would have been shaken until they bled from their seven orifices.

With that said, the flames on Lin Long's body immediately dimmed, and if there was someone at the side, they would notice that Lin Long was frowning, as though he was struggling to resist something. Very clearly, even Lin Long who had a strong divine sense could feel the pressure.

As time passed, the flames on Lin Long's body grew dimmer and dimmer, and in the end, the two flames within had actually disappeared. Only the auriferous fire was still bitterly holding on.

However, this auriferous fire was very tenacious. Even after at least two hours had passed, it still had not disappeared.

"Attack!"

The next moment, the old man let out another loud shout. As he shouted, the entire space started to tremble. It was evident that the old man's attack had increased in intensity.

However, what he did not expect was that at this moment, the flames on Lin Long's body, which should have extinguished immediately, suddenly flared up once more. Not only that, the ice spirit flame and lotus heart purple flames that had disappeared previously appeared once again.

"How is this possible?" Seeing this situation, the old man was completely stunned. One must know that he had already completely ignited the energy of the Symbol Grammar Array, but to think that he would still be unable to do anything to Lin Long.

"Young man, I'm afraid this isn't the world you're in?" Soon after, the old man stared at Lin Long and said.

"You should be right." Lin Long nodded.

The reason why he was able to block this attack was all because of his powerful spiritual will.

"No wonder, hahahahaha!" At that moment, the old man suddenly loudly laughed.1

Amidst the laughter, the illusory world around Lin Long suddenly disappeared without a trace. Looking at his surroundings, Lin Long realized that they were still standing in front of the broken wall.

"Young man, it seems like this world belongs to you. Since that's the case, the final treasure will be given to you. I have accomplished my mission." The old man said.

At this time, Huo Zhengcheng and the others had also woken up. Seeing the situation in front of their eyes, all of them were stunned; if not for the fact that Lin Long was still standing properly, they would have gone up to fight against this old man.

"Old man, do you know your identity?" Lin Long asked.

"As for me? Back then, I single-handedly created a great sect." The old man said.

What? This old man is the Grandmaster of the Grand Sect? Hearing the elder's words, Huo Zhengcheng and the rest looked at each other.

"That's not right. With your strength, who can destroy your Supreme Sect?" Lin Long could not help but ask.

"With their strength, they naturally wouldn't be able to destroy it." A trace of pride appeared on the old man's face, then he sighed, "However, because I abided by a promise, I didn't make a move back then. I watched helplessly as everything I created was destroyed."

As he spoke, the old man lifted his head to look around him. In that instant, he felt as if he had returned to the peak of the Supreme Sect.

"Alright, since it has already been so long, why should I keep on thinking about it?" After a moment, the old man withdrew his consciousness and shook his head.

"I won't say much, young man. I shall leave the final and most valuable treasure of the Supreme Sect to you. I'll leave it to you, because with your strength, you won't let these things sink into depravity! " The old man seriously replied.

"What request do you have?" Lin Long asked.

"What request does he have?" The old man suddenly smiled, "I've lived for so long, I've long seen through everything!"

At this point, the old man's voice came to a screeching halt, before he collapsed to the ground.

"This is?"

Seeing this situation, Huo Zhengcheng and the rest became extremely suspicious, as they did not know what was going on.

The reason the old man died suddenly was because his soul had already reached the Exhaustion Light state. This was naturally because he had activated the Symbol Grammar Array and drained all of his energy, otherwise, he would not have died so quickly.

The reason why he had ignited the Symbol Grammar Array and left so peacefully was naturally because he had found a suitable person, Lin Long, to have the legacy of the Tai Sect.

Lin Long knew the reason behind this, but he did not inform Huo Zhengcheng and the others.

"Alright, let's go down." As he said that, Lin Long walked forward in large strides. After which, he extended his hand and pushed. The broken wall impressively moved forward with a "kacha kacha" sound, and revealed a flight of stairs that extended downwards.

The Symbol Grammar Array that was protecting this place had disappeared, so it was very easy to find the entrance and open it.

"Is that the darkroom below?" Huo Zhengcheng and the rest could not help but ask.

"Exactly." Lin Long nodded, and then walked down with large strides.
