Chapter 55: Counterattack Preparation and New Progress of Clues
Within the Immortal Sect, the atmosphere grew even more tense and heavy due to the sudden attack by the Shadow Cult harassing squad. News of the patrolling disciples being attacked and injured spread quickly, leaving the disciples worried for their companions and furious at the Shadow Cult's unscrupulous actions.
Inside the meeting hall, the white-robed man, the Immortal Sect's guardian, and the other elders gathered once again. While the previous attack hadn't resulted in serious consequences, it had clearly demonstrated that the Shadow Cult would not miss any opportunity to disrupt the Immortal Sect's plans. Everyone knew they had to expedite their actions and deliver a powerful counterattack.
"Although this Shadow Cult raid may seem minor, it reveals gaps in our perimeter defenses," an elder in charge of defense said grimly. "Even though our patrol routes have been adjusted, they still managed to find opportunities to strike. This shows they have a clear understanding of our movements."
"Yes, so strengthening our defenses remains the top priority. We can't let our guard down even a little bit." The man in white nodded slightly, his expression stern. "However, we can't just passively take a beating forever. It's time to take the initiative and let the Shadow Cult have a taste of what it's like to be harassed."
"Take the initiative to attack?" When the elders heard this, a hint of doubt flashed in their eyes, but it was quickly replaced by expectation.
"That's right," the man in white continued. "We need to organize an elite counterattack team to specifically raid the Shadow Cult's strongholds and the teams they've sent out to search for the evil inheritance. This will disrupt their plans, and perhaps also help us obtain more crucial information about the evil inheritance and their conspiracy."
"This plan is very good, but the selection of members for the counterattack team must be done with extreme caution. After all, we are facing the Shadow Cult, so their strength and adaptability must be top-notch." An experienced elder suggested.
"That's right," the man in white replied. "Each hall's deacons will recommend the most outstanding disciples within their own halls, and together with several elders, we will form this counterattack team. We must ensure they have sufficient strength to deal with the Shadow Cult and are able to make the right decisions at critical moments."
Immediately, the deacons of each hall sprang into action, selecting suitable disciples according to the requirements. For a moment, the atmosphere within the Immortal Sect was filled with excitement. Upon hearing of the opportunity to participate in the counterattack, the disciples were eager to contribute their strength to this battle between good and evil and to avenge their companions.
There is also exciting news in terms of research clues.
The elders who were responsible for studying the clues brought back from the mysterious stone chamber, after days of unremitting efforts, finally made new major discoveries on those ancient scrolls and strange magic weapons.
Several elders gathered in a secret room, precious clues spread out on a table. One of them excitedly pointed to an open scroll and said, "Everyone, look here. After careful identification and interpretation, we've discovered that this scroll records some of the locations where the evil legacy once circulated. Although it's very old, several of these locations clearly correspond to the areas of the immortal world we know today."
Upon hearing this, everyone came forward, their eyes fixed on the obscure text and slightly blurry map markings on the scroll.
"This is truly a significant discovery!" another elder exclaimed in admiration. "If we can follow these locations, we might be able to find traces of the Shadow Cult collecting evil inheritances, or even directly discover their base."
"Not only that," another elder added, "When we were studying that glowing crystal ball, we discovered that in addition to displaying a map of the Scattered Lands and the Shadow Cult's activity areas, it also possesses a special ability to detect spiritual energy fluctuations. As long as we inject our own spiritual energy into it and operate it according to specific incantations, it can detect spiritual energy fluctuations related to the evil inheritance within a certain range."
"Oh? There is such a wonderful thing!" The elders were surprised.
"That's right, but this detection function also has its limitations. The range is relatively small and it takes some time to be activated again after each use. But even so, it is undoubtedly another powerful tool for us to find evil inheritances and Shadow Cult strongholds." The elder explained.
The elders immediately decided to dispatch a small group of disciples, led by an elder familiar with the local area, to conduct a preliminary exploration of the location recorded on the scroll. At the same time, they were to keep the glowing crystal ball in safekeeping, activating its detection function when the time was right to further assist in the search.
Just as the Immortal Sect was actively preparing for a counterattack and making new progress in research clues, the teams sent by the Shadow Cult to search for the evil inheritance were also searching intensively throughout the world of immortal cultivation.
One of the teams was traveling through a desolate desert. The desert's spiritual energy was chaotic, and the environment was harsh, making it difficult for ordinary people to survive. However, for those in the Shadow Cult who sought an evil legacy, the more remote and mysterious the place, the more likely it was to hide what they wanted.
The team members, all stern-faced and clad in custom black robes, trudged forward through the windy sand. Holding specialized detection instruments, they paused periodically to plunge them into the sand, observing its response and attempting to find any clues to the evil legacy.
"Captain, this place is so desolate, are there really any clues to the evil inheritance?" A team member couldn't help but ask, his voice sounding a little hoarse in the whistling sound of wind and sand.
"Hmph, don't ask too many questions, just search carefully. The higher-ups have said that there have been related rumors in this area, so we must investigate carefully and not miss any possible places." The team leader said coldly, his eyes revealing ruthlessness and persistence.
Suddenly, the detection magic weapon in the hand of a team member began to tremble violently, making a buzzing sound.
"Captain, something's happening!" the team member shouted excitedly.
The team members were immediately energized and gathered around, staring intently at the trembling detection magic weapon. They were both expectant and nervous, wondering if this would be the clue to the evil inheritance they had been searching for.
In this situation where good and evil are fighting each other, the Immortal Sect and the Shadow Sect are both vigorously advancing their plans. Every move of both sides may affect the final outcome of this contest that concerns the fate of the immortal world. Who will be able to gain the upper hand in this invisible war? Everything is still unknown.
