Now that everything here is almost done, it will not be of any use to continue to stay here. Lin Lan thought.
Thinking of this, Lin Lan stood up and instructed the Linjia Beast to hide here and quietly finish eating the Bing Xinguo. He walked quickly to the tomb guarding old man.
At this time, seven or eight people were already sitting and resting in the open space beside the tomb guarding old man.
Lin Lan understands that those who can stay here now have successfully challenged the puppet.
In other words, the strength of these people is not bad.
"It seems that your problem has been solved."
The old man who guarded the tomb noticed Lin Lan early in the morning, and when Lin Lan approached, he said with a smile.
"Um!"
Lin Lan said gratefully.
"The power in my body has been suppressed. Thank you for your guidance."
"You don't have to thank me. How much you gain is the result of your own efforts."
The old man guarding the tomb waved his hand, pointed to the people behind him, and said to Lin Lan:
"They, like you, have successfully passed the challenge. You should go and wait with them."
"it is good!"
Lin Lan nodded in agreement.
When he passed by the tomb guarding old man, he heard the tomb guarding old man warn him in a very small voice.
"Pay attention to the two people on the far left, the two of them, came to the fourth floor earlier than you, and have successfully challenged the puppets of the same level."
Lin Lan's mind moved, and nodded without a trace.
The old man's voice was not loud, and Lin Lan didn't need to make a clear statement.
However, when Lin Lan approached the senior disciples who had successfully passed the test, a young man sitting on the far left of them suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Lin Lan.
He asked, "Are you Lin Lan?"
"Who are you?"
Lin Lan immediately became angry when she heard the other party's harsh tone.
What he dislikes the most is the type of person who can't be dragged as soon as they meet, as if everyone owes him money.
"My name is Zongyang."
Zong Yang sneered.
"I heard about you. Since you can defeat Wang Aoyun, then the puppets of the same level here will definitely not be too difficult for you to challenge."
"Why aren't you interested in jumping the ranks to challenge some puppets?"
Lin Lan can feel that Zong Yang's strength is not bad, but his ability to stimulate generals is really not very good.
Hearing this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "How I challenge is my business, I'm afraid it's not your turn to point fingers."
"Hmph, I don't know how to lift up!"
Zong Yang snorted coldly.
"Leaping the level challenge, but you can get the ice heart fruit that is several times more precious than the green spirit fruit."
"I kindly persuade you, but I didn't expect you to not only thank me, but also..."
Lin Lan teased: "Since there are so many benefits, why don't you challenge Senior Brother Zong?"
In fact, in Lin Lan's heart, why didn't he want to challenge himself
It's just that the old tomb guard has already used the benefits of twelve Ice Heart Fruits to 'bought' him, and he can't afford to consume his own strength any more.
For Lin Lan, the power of the original lake soul stone was an uncontrollable thorn in his body, and it could devour himself at any time.
But now that he has been able to suppress that power, it has become a treasure for Lin Lan.
It was a life-saving force, and Lin Lan felt distressed by using a little more.
"Zong Yang, put away your little thought."
At this time, a senior disciple sitting beside Zong Yang suddenly said.
"You don't need to use such despicable means if you want Lin Lan to be eliminated early."
Zong Yang's eyes turned cold as he looked at the man beside him, and said, "Ding Mingyi, what do you mean!"
"What do I mean, Senior Brother Zong, you naturally understand better than anyone else."
Ding Mingyi smiled coldly.
"I admit that my strength is not as good as you. I just challenged three puppets of the same level, and I was already injured?"
"And you, challenged five directly and succeeded. I will not be your opponent for the longevity fruit later."
Without any scruples, Ding Mingyi said directly: "Among the remaining people, I believe that only Shi Xiu can compare with me."
"But he's worse than you. So if you don't have this Lin Lan, you'll be sure to get the longevity fruit directly..."
"enough!"
Zong Yang shouted coldly.
"Ding Mingyi, stop talking nonsense!"
"Am I talking nonsense, Zong Yang, you know better than me."
Ding Mingyi smiled coldly, then looked at Lin Lan and said:
"Lin Lan, I'm afraid you don't know yet? We, the people of the Qing Emperor Sect, no matter how strong they are, come here every year and can get a longevity fruit."
"Can you get a longevity fruit every year?"
Lin Lan was stunned for a moment, then cupped her hands and said, "I also ask Senior Brother Ding for advice."
"I can't tell you about it. After all, this matter is not a secret."
Ding Mingyi smiled softly and explained.
"Our disciples of the Qing Emperor Sect have come to the fourth floor. If they want the spiritual fruits such as the Green Spirit Fruit and the Ice Heart Fruit, they all need to fight for it themselves."
"The former needs to challenge puppets of the same level, while the latter needs to challenge puppets that are one level higher than their realm."
"As much as you win, you can get as many spiritual fruits. I don't need to say more about this, right?"
Lin Lan nodded lightly, he did know this.
"On the fifth floor of Tongtian Pagoda, there are three kinds of spiritual fruits. In addition to the first two, there is one more precious longevity fruit than the first two!"
"It's just that there are only two ways to get it. The first is to challenge the puppet at two levels!"
Ding Mingyi stared at Lin Lan and said softly.
"Lin Lan, I know that you are a genius, you can leapfrog to challenge a martial artist of a higher realm than you, but you are not invincible now, right?"
"So the more I challenge, the more likely I will be eliminated, right?"
Lin Lan is the interface.
"That's it."
Ding Mingyi Road.
"Zong Yang of course wants to use this method to eliminate you."
"And this way doesn't work, we can only choose the second way."
Ding Mingyi glanced at the disciples who passed the test, and said softly:
"The best of all of us, when he leaves, can get a longevity fruit directly from the old man who guards the tomb."
"It's just that once you get this longevity fruit, you must hand it over to the sect after you leave the Tongtian Tower."
"Although the sect will also give some corresponding compensation to the disciples, but the value cannot be compared with the longevity fruit."
He was explaining the relationship to Lin Lan.
"Ding Mingyi, are you slandering the Qing Emperor Sect?"
Zong Yang suddenly interjected.
Ding Mingyi frowned and said, "I'm just telling the truth, what kind of slander?"
Lin Lan directly ignored Zong Yang, looked past him, looked at Ding Mingyi, and asked:
"Senior Brother Ding, then I don't know what to do to become the best one?"
Lin Lan had already received a promise from the old man who guarded the tomb, and this year's longevity fruit must be his.
He also wanted to know the reason why the tomb guard said so.
"Leapfrog Challenge!"
Ding Mingyi said: "All of us who can stay, if someone can challenge the most powerful puppet and succeed, then he can directly get a longevity fruit of his own."
"It's that simple?"
Lin Lan was stunned.
Ding Mingyi was amused by Lin Lan's reaction, and smiled softly: "It's that simple."
Lin Lan finally understood why the old man who guarded the tomb made a promise with such certainty before.
"I have the power of the Lake Heart Stone. This year's first place must be mine, but..."
Lin Lan clenched his fists secretly, and a fiery light flashed in his eyes.
"It's just that the longevity fruit obtained in this way, a discerning person can see that this is a gift from the old tomb guard to the Qing Emperor Sect, and it is impossible to keep it by himself."
"Lin Lan?"
Lin Lan suddenly heard someone calling him, and turned his head quickly, it was Ding Mingyi.
He looked at Ding Mingyi and said, "Senior Brother Ding, forgive me, I was in a trance just now."
"Small things."
Ding Mingyi looked at Lin Lan strangely.
"Lin Lan, don't you want to get the longevity fruit yourself?"
he asks
"I have this idea, but with my current strength, it seems a little difficult."
Lin Lan directly said what was in her heart.
"Absolutely not!"
Ding Mingyi said urgently.
"Lin Lan, you still listen to me and wait here with peace of mind. As long as you are not tempted, you will definitely get a longevity fruit."
"Although that longevity fruit doesn't really belong to you, the benefits you can get from the sect are not less."
Ding Mingyi saw that Lin Lan was thinking and didn't speak, and said, "Lin Lan, I understand what you think. However, everything must be done within one's capacity."
"I'll decide this for myself."
Lin Lan surrendered to Ding Mingyi and turned to the old man guarding the tomb.
Ding Mingyi didn't notice, and the moment Lin Lan turned around, a sneer began to appear on his face.
It wasn't until Lin Lan walked away that Zong Yang, who was sitting cross-legged beside Ding Mingyi, asked in a low voice, "How is it? Do you think he's taken the bait?"
"Looks like I've been hooked! Let's wait."
Ding Mingyi looked at Lin Lan's back, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"If he didn't come here, this time the longevity fruit. It must be ours."
"Once we get it, we will have the opportunity to go to the Qingdi Sect Treasure Pavilion and choose three treasures. That thing will definitely be available!"
"We've been waiting for this day for too long, but no one expected that the variable Lin Lan would appear in the end."
"If he doesn't take the bait, we'll provoke him when he comes back."
Zong Yang said in a deep voice.
"With so many people watching here, it is impossible for us to directly attack him. The only feasible way is for him to find the tomb keeper himself."
"Then he will challenge himself. Once he is defeated, he will be sent away directly from here, and he will lose his qualification to compete for the longevity fruit."
"Hopefully he will challenge it directly."
Ding Mingyi stared at Lin Lan's back and lowered his voice.
"This day, the two of us have been waiting for too long. When we came to Qingdi Sect, we were also for that thing!"
"We must get that thing from the Treasure Pavilion. This time, handing in the Longevity Fruit will give us a legitimate opportunity to get it. There can be no mistakes!"
…
Lin Lan walked quickly to the old man who guarded the tomb. He had to say that although he saw Ding Mingyi's words early in the morning, they were not sincere, but he was really tempted.
If Lin Lan knew in advance that she could get a longevity fruit that truly belonged to her, she would have gone to the old man who guarded the tomb long ago.
"Why did you come back?"
When the old man guarding the tomb saw Lin Lan coming back, his face was displeased
But seeing the sneer on the latter's face, he couldn't help but ask: "Did you see something?"
Lin Lan asked directly, "Senior, did those two come to the fourth floor together?"
"Well, you're right."
The old man who guarded the tomb nodded and said.
"It seems that their performance failed, how do you see that?"
The old man guarding the tomb is very strong. As long as he wants to, he can notice what everyone around here is saying, what expressions on their faces, and the movements in their hands.
So he naturally noticed that Ding Mingyi and Zong Yang were planning to plot against Lin Lan.
It's just that the old man who guards the tomb has a special status. In his eyes, the senior disciples of the Qing Emperor Sect are all little guys.
It is not easy for him to participate in the intrigue of these little guys.
When Lin Lan returned from taking Bingxinguo before, his kind reminder to Lin Lan was already the ultimate.
"They have so many flaws that it's hard not to find them."
Lin Lan shrugged and said.
"First of all, I also came from the third floor. I have seen a lot of monsters there, blocking the entrance?"
"The other disciples were blocked outside, but they came in first, which is really strange."
"Although these two are strong, with the strength of any of them, it is impossible to get through there alone unless they join forces."
"Well, this is indeed a flaw."
The old man guarding the tomb applauded.
Since their families have teamed up before, why are they breaking each other down at this time
"What else did you see?"
he asked again.
"This is related to my experience. It's not that I haven't been deceived. I can see whether a person is sincere to me or not, with just one look."
With a faint smile, he thought of Murong Yanran.
"And Ding Mingyi's performance is too much. I didn't know him in advance, and he's willing to answer some questions for me, which is not bad."
"But when he heard my real thoughts, the eager expression on his face was too fake."
"That 'it's absolutely impossible' doesn't fit the facts we've just come to know."
"I ask myself that I definitely can't say such a thing to someone I've only known for a while."
"Even if you want to prevent the other party from doing some dangerous things, you will change the way of expression."
The old man who guarded the tomb smiled and said, "It seems that the little guy next to you gave you the choice of the innate spirit beast array, isn't it too bad?"
"With this ability to observe words and feelings, you will not die prematurely in the future."
"But I'm very surprised. That Ding Mingyi's last words were sincere and sincere. Are you really not touched at all?"
"Touch?"
Lin Lan was stunned for a moment and smiled.
"Why am I touched? His last words seem to be blocking me, but in fact they are bewitching me."
"What are the benefits of getting a 'longevity fruit that really belongs to you'..."
Lin Lan shook his head lightly and said, "When things are extreme, they turn against each other. He's doing it too hard, and it's even more suspicious."
