"I'll tell you the rules."
The old man guarding the tomb pointed at the dazed puppets behind him and said.
"You can choose some of them to fight, these are puppets with the same level of martial arts as you."
"If you can defeat one, I will allow you to go to the fifth floor to get a Green Spirit Fruit and leave."
"If you can defeat two at the same time, then you can get two Green Spirit Fruits."
"The rules are actually very simple. The more you challenge the same level of puppets at the same time, the more benefits I will give you."
The old man guarding the tomb laughed.
"How is it? You can tell me when you think about it, how many do you plan to challenge at the same time?"
"It turns out that if you want to go to the fifth floor to get the spiritual fruit, you must first pass the test here?"
Lin Lan remembered what Vice-President Ouyang had said to him, the value of a green spirit fruit is equal to a bottle of elixir!
Although the elixir had no direct effect on him, it was needed by others for him. just useful.
He can trade this with someone else.
Lin Lan thought for a while, and asked, "Senior, I heard that there are spiritual fruits such as Bingxin Fruit and Longevity Fruit in the fifth floor. I don't know how to obtain those spiritual fruits?"
"First defeat three puppets with the same martial realm as you, and I can give you a chance to get the ice heart fruit."
The old man guarding the tomb said lightly.
"Old man, I don't like talking nonsense. If you don't have the strength, it's useless for me to say more now."
"Three?"
Lin Lan smiled slightly and said.
"I thought it was four, but I was so scared! Senior, how many puppets do you have in total at the same level as me?"
"There are twelve in total. The master didn't expect someone like you to come here, so you don't bother to create too many puppets of that level."
"Okay, then let them go together!"
Lin Lan folded her arms and said to the old man guarding the tomb.
"Are we going to compete here?"
"Hmph, the tone is not small!"
The tomb guard old man's face showed displeasure.
"Boy, I have to remind you that what you have to face is just puppets."
"But they have also mastered some middle-grade and high-grade martial arts, and their combined combat skills will not be weaker than your humans."
Lin Lan smiled indifferently. He wasn't even afraid of being besieged by a few warriors higher than him, so why would he care about a few puppets
"Please senior let them come up."
"Hmph, that's crazy!"
The old man guarding the tomb narrowed his eyes.
"Old man, I like crazy people! However, what I hate most is an idiot who pretends to be crazy when he has no strength. Lin Lan, what kind of person do you think you are?"
"Neither kind."
Lin Lan shook her head gently.
"I'm just an ordinary person with a clear understanding of my own strength."
"Sober cognition? Hahaha, really crazy!"
The old man guarding the tomb laughed and then waved his hand directly.
Following the action of the tomb guarding old man, Lin Lan suddenly felt that his body was not his own.
He actually flew straight up high and quickly floated to a distant hill.
At the same time, flying with him were the twelve human-shaped puppets behind the old man who guarded the tomb.
"Little guy, he is going to the competition, you don't need to follow."
After Lin Lan flew up, the old man guarding the tomb gently grabbed at the void.
Immediately, a huge red handprint appeared on Lin Lan's back, directly lifting the Linjia Beast down.
The body of the tomb-guarding old man floated in the void, and he lifted the tail of the Linjia beast, squinting his eyes and said, "Flashing wings? How did you little guy appear in the Tongtian Tower?"
Lin Lan noticed that the Linjia beast was taken away by the old man guarding the tomb, and at the same time he was anxious and helpless.
His body was in the void, floating to a distant mountain, apparently because of the control of the old tomb guard.
During this process, Lin Lan couldn't even move her fingers.
Fortunately, the linjia beast passed the spirit beast formation and reported safety to Lin Lan.
"Little guy, don't move."
The old man guarding the grave held the fluffy tail behind the Linjia Beast and looked at it carefully.
"The old man has never known that there is still the existence of Flashing Wings in the Tongtian Tower. Tell me honestly, did you come with that arrogant human being?"
"Huh? You actually gave him the gifted spirit beast array?"
"Ah ah ah!"
The Linjia Beast is very afraid of the old man who guards the tomb. In front of him, he can't even have the courage to grow stronger and face the enemy, so he can only keep begging for mercy.
"That kid just now is really a lucky guy."
The old man guarding the tomb looked at the hill where Lin Lan floated to and muttered.
"Since he has your favor, should I give him some water, old man?"
"The twelve puppets created by the master are of the same level as him, which are much stronger than the twelve human warriors. What if the kid dies?"
"Forget it, let's repay a favor from your Flashwing clan. He has a spirit beast formation on his body. If he dies, you little guy won't survive."
Thinking of this, the old man guarding the tomb looked up in Lin Lan's direction. Even if they were far apart, he could see the scene there clearly.
"what!"
The old man guarding the tomb was stunned. He didn't expect that Lin Lan had already knocked down all the twelve puppets in the short period of time when he lost his mind!
"How did he do that!"
The old man guarding the tomb looked at Lin Lan in surprise, then reached out and grabbed at the void.
Lin Lan suddenly felt that his body was subjected to an extremely powerful suction force, which was so strong that he couldn't resist, and then his body flew straight up.
The whirring sound of the wind rang in Lin Lan's ears. Before he had time to react, he returned to the tomb guarding old man in the next instant.
"This is your strength?"
Lin Lan looked solemn, staring at the old man who guarded the tomb.
"A few miles apart, you can control others at will? What martial arts level is this?"
"It's useless to tell you now. When you reach this point in your practice, you will understand."
The old man guarding the tomb looked up and down Lin Lan.
"I just missed the old man. I didn't expect that you not only let this little guy give you the gifted spirit beast array, but your body seems to be a little special."
"If I guessed correctly, your pure power should have reached a very high level now, right?"
The old man guarding the tomb looked like a torch. Since he dared to say it, he must be sure to prove it.
Lin Lan felt that there was no need to hide it, so she simply nodded to admit it.
"Yes, because I had some adventures on the first floor, my physical strength was strengthened."
"level one?"
A gleam of light flashed in the eyes of the old man guarding the tomb, his arm was as fast as lightning, and he grabbed Lin Lan's palm suddenly.
"really!"
The old man guarding the tomb had a look of astonishment on his face.
"You touched that thing in the lake, and you didn't die?"
"No, no."
The old man guarding the tomb immediately spoke again.
"With your martial arts realm, it's impossible to touch the things at the bottom of the lake. Boy, tell me honestly, how many people know that this thing exists!"
Hearing this, Lin Lan was shocked. The old man who guarded the tomb actually knew about the lake soul stone on the first floor!
"Only me."
Lin Lan answered honestly.
"Impossible, even if you are at the eighth level of Guiyuan Realm, it is impossible to break through that small lake."
"Besides, you're just a beginner!"
The old man guarding the tomb looked like you kid, don't take me for a fool.
"I really broke it myself."
Lin Lanqiang made a sound, revealing his true cold sword.
"It's used."
"This, is it so powerful?"
The old man guarding the grave shook his head slightly and continued to stare at Lin Lan.
"It's so powerful."
Lin Lan said.
Lin Lan raised the long sword above his head, and on the dark blue blade, True Qi burst out, and a bone-chilling force was released.
"cut!"
Lin Lan slashed down with a sharp sword, and immediately three zhenqi sword gangs condensed in the void.
Following Lin Lan's movements, the three infuriating sword gangs, like three huge waves with a height of more than ten feet, stacked up and down, slamming against a tombstone not far from Lin Lan.
Boom boom boom!
The sword light flickered and the waves were sparkling, and Lin Lan's deep infuriating energy turned into a wave that seemed to destroy everything, and slapped the tombstone that seemed to be swaying in the sea.
"what!"
Lin Lan stared at the tombstone unscathed under the onslaught of his long sword in a stunned manner, unable to say a word in shock.
"What a strong defense! What is this tombstone made of?"
Lin Lan was shocked.
"My move can be regarded as my most powerful attack method at present, but it can't damage this tombstone in the slightest!"
"Humph, it seems that your kid still has some strength."
The old man guarding the tomb also looked at Lin Lan in shock.
"Your sword skills are not bad, and there is already a faint shadow of sword power."
"It seems that you have been immersed in kendo since you were born, right? Without more than ten years of hard work, it is impossible to understand this sword power."
Lin Lan pouted, God knows how long it has been since he started to touch kendo
The old man didn't know everything either.
However, Lin Lan didn't intend to explain this. The old man who guarded the tomb said that it would be more than ten years. Listening to the tone, this seemed to be a high evaluation.
"With your talent, it will take about a hundred years for you to understand the power of the sword and the meaning of the sword. Maybe there will be another powerful sword-wielder in the Empire of Resentment."
The old man guarding the tomb nodded lightly.
"It seems that you are not without strengths, no wonder you are favored by this little guy."
"Senior knows Xiaolin's identity? Also, what are the sword potential and sword intent you speak of?"
Lin Lan heard a few unfamiliar words and asked eagerly.
It takes a hundred years to comprehend the sword intent? This is too long.
"Why, you don't know it?"
The old man guarding the tomb took the Linjia beast's plush tail and threw it to Lin Lan.
After thinking for a while, he sighed again: "I don't know, I don't know!"
"What do you mean, senior?"
Lin Lan was puzzled.
"there is nothing."
The old man guarding the tomb waved his hand, unwilling to say more on this matter.
"You ask me what the sword intent is. I can't explain it to you. Things that involve the realm of martial arts are very mysterious, and you can only comprehend them yourself."
"However, Sword Intent, I can show it to you."
Saying that, the old man guarding the tomb clenched his fists and fluttered towards Lin Lan.
Lin Lan was shocked at this moment.
The old man guarding the tomb seemed to move slowly, but he felt that at this moment, all the space around him seemed to be locked by the fist of the old man guarding the tomb.
He couldn't even move.
The important thing is that Lin Lan couldn't feel a trace of true energy and spiritual energy on the fist of the old man guarding the tomb.
It seems that this is an ordinary punch from an ordinary person.
However, as the fist of the old tomb guard got closer and closer to Lin Lan, Lin Lan's breathing became more and more rapid.
Although the fist finally stayed two feet in front of him, Lin Lan felt as if he had been hit by the fist in his chest.
And it's not over yet. Next, Lin Lan seemed to see his body, smashed by the old man who guarded the tomb, and the scene of flesh and blood flying.
"understand?"
The old man guarding the tomb looked at Lin Lan, who was leaning over his knees with his hands on his knees, and said with a smile.
"This is my fist intent. How much you can understand in the future depends on your own understanding."
Lin Lan wiped the sweat from his forehead, raised his head, and stared at the old man guarding the tomb with burning eyes.
"Is this the fist intent?"
he asks.
"There are still many things you need to learn. In the next hundred years, you should first understand the sword situation."
Tomb guard old man.
"However, since you have already grasped a little bit of the sword's fur, plus your special physique, there is no need to carry out the next test."
"Ordinary puppets are not your opponents. Higher-level puppets are even worse based on your sword stance."
The old man spoke slowly.
Not necessarily, Lin Lan thought to herself. A higher level puppet, he can also fight.
It's the old man's fist intent just now, Lin Lan can also try to break it, it's not that he can't fight.
It's just that the strength of the old man is unfathomable, and Lin Lan was not sure of winning the final battle.
His level is still too low.
But Lin Lan didn't say anything. There is no need to deliberately show off your true strength.
"Could it be that the fourth floor of the Tongtian Tower is for us to challenge the puppet?"
Lin Lan said, he focused on the things in front of him.
"Yes. Here, you can challenge as many puppets, and when you reach the fifth floor, you can get as many benefits."
Tomb guard old man.
"When you reach the fifth floor, you can take twelve Green Spirit Fruits and twelve Ice Heart Fruits."
"Lin Lan, I have a suggestion for you."
"These twenty-four spirit fruits, you can leave a few ice heart fruits to suppress the power in your body that does not belong to you from the small lake."
"Other spiritual fruits, it's best to eat the little guy in your arms."
"Xiao Lin?"
Lin Lan turned his head and glanced at the lina beast on his shoulder. The old man who guarded the tomb seemed to take special care of the lina beast.
"I'm just a suggestion. It's up to you whether you want to do it or not."
When the old man guarding the tomb said this, he suddenly frowned and turned to look behind him.
"Strange, why are there so many people all at once?"
As soon as the voice of the tomb-guarding old man fell, Lin Lan noticed that people began to walk out of the teleportation formation opposite, almost all of them were senior disciples of the Qing Emperor Sect.
"This is the fourth floor! As expected, it's a cemetery!"
"Look, that's Lin Lan. Who is the thin old man standing next to him? Is it the old man who guards the grave?"
"It seems right! As long as we defeat the puppet sent by the old tomb guard, as the intelligence said, we can get the elixir that the college elders rewarded!"
The disciples who walked out of the formation were all elated, and some of them nodded and smiled at Lin Lan.
