The ten blades slashed at him head-on. Lin Yan dodged some of them, but he couldn’t dodge all. He directly raised his arm and circulated his strength, allowing the blades to land on his arm.
“Ding, ding, dang, dang!”
The sound of metal clashing rang out continuously. The blades landed on Lin Yan’s pale arm, but they could only sink slightly and leave a few shallow white marks.
Lin Yan took the opportunity to lower his elbow and hold the saber arms in the posture of the Erlang God carrying a mountain. He didn’t care how many there were and directly turned over to clamp them. He tied the saber arms under his armpit and pulled them out of the poisonous fog!
A total of four insect monsters lost their balance after being tied up by him and were dragged out of the poisonous fog.
Lin Yan twisted his waist and used the force of the rotation to throw the four insect monsters to the other side of the valley where there was no poisonous fog. He stood between the poisonous fog and the insect monsters, blocking the way.
…..
The four insect monsters were naturally extremely afraid and rushed over, wanting to return to the poisonous fog.
However, there was no need to worry about their sharp blades. To Lin Yan, the four insect monsters immediately became tigers without claws and teeth. They were easily kicked back by him.
Not long after, the four insect monsters fell to the ground and spat out dark green pus and blood.
“This Stone Pagoda can actually unleash such an effect when combined with Tough Force. It’s the nemesis of sharp weapons!”
Lin Yan suppressed the excitement in his heart and turned around, only to discover that the remaining seven to eight insect monsters had taken a step back in unison.
When Lin Yan rushed in again, they actually turned around and ran!
“The only flaw is that it’s too easy to scare these insect monsters away!”
Lin Yan sighed and his body flashed. He quickly caught up to another fleeing insect monster and pulled it back.
After a period of struggle and torture.
Lin Yan placed the five new Spirit Marrows together with the previous seven and sat on one of the insect heads to rest.
“This Stone Pagoda’s defense is really shocking!
“It can also increase one’s defense as one’s realm increases. The stronger the force, the stronger the defense. It’s simply a divine skill!”
Previously, he had entered the poisonous fog to attract insects and lured them over before coming here to kill them. He had been working hard for more than five hours and collected about ten Spirit Marrows.
He quickly realized that the greatest threat to him from the insect monsters was the two saber arms!
The blade was sharp, so he had to be extra alert. Otherwise, if he was not careful, he would be cut in half.
Therefore, he naturally thought of Iron Pagoda, the defensive martial art.
With the intention of giving it a try, he absorbed a total of 12 Spirit Marrows in a row and filled the remaining seven Wisdom Holes. He transformed another Enlightenment Spiritual Light and threw it into the Iron Pagoda.
That’s right, he had used a total of 12 Spirit Marrows this time.
It was not that the Spirit Marrow in the insect monster’s body contained little external spiritual matter.
Instead, it was because after he advanced to the Tough Realm and his strength increased, the external spiritual matter needed for every Wisdom Hole increased!
Each Wisdom Hole required at least three times the external spiritual matter from before.
Of course, the intensity of the Enlightenment Spiritual Light it transformed into was three times that of before.
“However, the Iron Pagoda is a martial arts technique that takes a lot of effort. It doesn’t have a strong reaction to enlightenment.
“From 14% to 35%, it was still fine. After 35%, it’s like a turtle crawling. Even with the enhancement of the Enlightenment Spiritual Light with three times the effect, it only reached 42% proficiency in the end.
“I’m still a long way from the next level of the Iron Pagoda.”
“It’s not worth it to use the Enlightenment Spiritual Light on this martial art.”
Of course, its effect was extremely strong.
If he activated his blood energy in the Strength Realm, the effect of the Stone Pagoda would probably be equivalent to wearing a layer of stone armor on the surface of his body.
However, if he used Tough Force to activate it, the stone armor would immediately become an extremely tough hard rock armor. It could be said to be the nemesis of sharp weapons!
Especially for someone like Lin Yan, whose total Tough Force was terrifying, his defense increased exponentially.
As long as he let go of the consumption of force, he would directly ignore the insect monster’s slash!
“It’s getting late. Hurry up and farm another wave of Spirit Marrow!”
After entering the poisonous fog, Lin Yan followed the concentration of the poisonous fog and quickly found seven to eight insect monsters gathered in a place with thick poisonous fog.
The same trick. He attracted them. Then, he returned the way he came and was about to return to the valley without the poisonous fog.
Suddenly, Lin Yan staggered and almost fell.
The ground suddenly cracked, and a pitch-black crack appeared under Lin Yan’s feet. Lin Yan hurriedly jumped to the side.
The two insect monsters that had been chasing him could not dodge in time. They hissed sharply and struggled to fall into the underground crack.
“Another earthquake!”
Moreover, this time, Lin Yan was almost in the core area of the earthquake. Rocks fell and mountains swayed.
The intense tremors seemed to have condensed into terrifying ripples that continuously spread from the ground under his feet to every inch of his body, causing him to subconsciously prostrate on the ground.
This was the instinctive reverence of living beings towards nature!
It was as if a ball of nameless anger had erupted from the depths of the ground. The roar shook the sky and thundered. The entire poisonous fog sea surged, and several gaps appeared on the ground.
The mountains and rivers overturned, and the world lost its color!
Not long after, the intense tremors slowly stopped.
Lin Yan slowly stood up. On the other side, the remaining five to six insect monsters curled up into a ball and used their tentacles to burrow firmly into the ground to stabilize themselves.
There seemed to be a weak aftershock on the ground. Lin Yan looked around. Tens of thousands of trees had fallen, and countless black holes had appeared on the ground. It was a scene of devastation.
His expression was ugly. What he was thinking was, could something have happened to Xiaozhi again?
At this moment, the five to six insect monsters also shook their bodies and spread out again.
However, they ignored Lin Yan. After whispering to each other for a moment, they turned around and immediately ran.
Lin Yan flashed out and grabbed a insect monster, pressing it to the ground. However, the other four insect monsters ignored him and only cared about running back.
Looking in that direction, it was where Lin Yan had discovered the palace.
He broke the insect monster’s saber arms, ignored its struggle, and split its head open.
Lin Yan took the Spirit Marrow with a solemn expression. After identifying a simple direction, he ran in the direction he came from.
At this moment, with the Stone Pagoda on his body, he was not too afraid of the insect monsters. He just had to be careful not to be surrounded by the main group.
Moreover, looking at the behavior of the insect monsters just now, they probably did not have the time to care about him.
As he sped along, he would distinguish the north and south from time to time. After walking for a long time, Lin Yan finally found a dead tree that he had marked before the sky turned completely dark.
He heaved a sigh of relief and lit a torch. Following the location he had marked, he ran all the way out of the poisonous fog.
The sky was filled with stars, and the night was charming. The mountains and rivers in front of him were quiet, and the long-awaited sound of insects sounded again.
The poisonous fog behind him was thick and dark, as if they were in two different worlds.
Lin Yan extinguished the torch and walked forward.
Suddenly.
Crack!
There was a crisp sound.
Lin Yan’s reaction was abnormally fast. He suddenly raised his leg and pulled it out before the iron trap on the ground closed.
“This is a flat road. It’s obvious for people to walk on. Who dares to set up a trap here?!”
A trace of coldness flashed across Lin Yan’s eyes. He stepped down and broke the trap.
Then, he continued to run forward.
Crack!
Another trap!
“Another one?!”
Lin Yan was already anxious. After being stopped by these two traps, a cold glint flashed across his eyes. He kicked the beast trap away and broke two trees.
“Someone’s here!”
…..
“Who’s there!”
“This is the territory of the Void Fist Sect. No matter who it is, surrender and speak!”
Voices came from ahead. Several balls of flames quickly approached from afar and quickly surrounded the place. There were three green-robed men, six to seven yellow-robed men, and more than ten gray-robed disciples.
“Where is he?”
“There was a sound just now?”
“Senior Brother, look! He even destroyed our trap!”
A green-robed man was immediately furious. “How audacious. Who are you? How dare you trespass into my Void Fist Sect’s territory!”
Just as he was about to shout again, he suddenly heard a cold voice in the shadow of the flames beside him. “Did you put the traps?”
The green-robed man instantly felt a chill run down his spine. He immediately jumped to the side to avoid it. He turned around to look, but there was nothing on the side. There was no one.
Two yellow-robed disciples and four to five gray-robed disciples actually fell silently.
“Looks like you really did put them there!”
In the next moment, the voice came from the shadows beside him again. The man in green was immediately frightened out of his wits. “You…”
BANG!
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist and abdomen. His entire body was bent into a sharp angle as he flew out in the air and broke a big tree with a bang.
Lin Yan held three iron beast traps in his hand. They were the ones he had snatched from the green-robed man’s waist.
“Senior Brother!
H
“Who are you! How dare you hurt someone from the Void Fist Sect!”
“Could it be that you’re the person who killed many disciples of the Void Fist Sect?!

The other disciples raised their torches and approached, but Lin Yan was quite far away from them, so they couldn’t see his face clearly. They only saw a terrifying black shadow. On his back were lumps of bulging shadows, and several knife-like arms were distributed all over his back.
“What a monster!”
“A ghost!”
Lin Yan hid in the darkness and turned a deaf ear. He weighed the three traps in his hand and kicked them hard. Several stones flew out and extinguished the remaining torches.
After a while.
In the dark forest, miserable cries lingered.
Many green-robed and yellow-robed disciples screamed miserably. They were in pairs and stuck their feet into the traps. The sawtooth on the traps was deeply embedded in their flesh and bones. It was extremely painful.
Each trap clamped two legs.
More than ten gray-robed disciples were anxious and hesitant at the side, but from time to time, they revealed gloating expressions..
