Rise of the Otherworld.

Lin Yu brought these mysterious visitors into the reception room of the sect. The reception room was decorated in a simple and solemn manner. Carved tables and chairs were neatly arranged, and several ancient calligraphy and paintings hung on the wall, revealing the historical heritage of the Zhenwang Sect.

Everyone took their seats as host and guest, while the disciples looked around curiously outside the hall, whispering to each other and guessing the purpose of these strangers' visit.

Lin Yu spoke first: "I wonder what exactly you are here for, this so-called communication?" His eyes swept over every mysterious visitor, his eyes full of inquiry and vigilance.

The leader took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Master Lin, to be honest, we are from the distant Lingfeng Valley and have been looking for like-minded allies to jointly deal with the impending crisis." His voice was gentle and steady, but with a hint of imperceptible urgency.

Lin Yu frowned slightly and tapped the table lightly with his fingers. "Crisis? I would like to hear more about it." His heart was full of doubts, not knowing what this so-called crisis was.

At this time, Tang Feng on the side could not help but said: "Without any evidence, how can you make us believe that what you said is true?" Tang Feng's eyes were sharp, staring at the leader, as if he wanted to see the clues from his expression.

One of the mysterious visitors stood up, his movements unhurried. He pulled out a strange jade pendant from his bosom. The jade was emerald green, intricately engraved, and emitted a faint glow. "This is a token from Spirit Wind Valley. It can sense the fluctuations of evil forces. Lately, the jade pendant's reaction has become increasingly intense, indicating an imminent crisis." His voice was deep and powerful.

The magic woman took the jade pendant, felt it carefully, and nodded to Lin Yu. Her face was solemn, "Master, this jade pendant does have unusual spiritual power fluctuations."

Lin Yu still looked solemn, his eyes moving back and forth between the jade pendant and the mysterious visitor. "Even so, what benefit will it bring to the Zhenwang Sect if we cooperate with you?" His tone was firm, knowing that he could not be easily swayed by the other party's words.

The leader said solemnly: "If we can successfully resist this evil force, the Zhenwang Sect will be famous in the ancient Xuan Continent, and resources from all parties will be tilted towards your sect. Moreover, Lingfeng Valley is willing to share cultivation secrets and magic weapons with the Zhenwang Sect." His eyes were full of expectation, trying to persuade Lin Yu.

The burly man who was good at boxing snorted coldly: "That sounds good, but we have no idea how serious the crisis is. Are you asking us to be cannon fodder?" His voice was loud and full of doubt.

The mysterious visitors shook their heads, indicating they had no such intentions. "We are sincerely seeking cooperation to jointly address this crisis, and we have no intention of harming the True King Sect."

Lin Yu waved his hand and said, "This matter is of great importance. Let me discuss it with everyone in the sect before making a decision." His expression was serious and the weighing of the pros and cons in his mind had not stopped.

The mysterious visitors did not insist and stayed in the Zhenwang Sect for the time being, waiting for a reply.

A heated discussion broke out within the Zhenwang Sect about this.

In the sect's meeting hall, the disciples sat together and expressed their opinions.

"I think this is an opportunity we can't miss. If we can successfully resist the evil forces, the Zhenwang Sect will be able to soar to the sky." A young disciple said excitedly, his eyes flashing with desire and expectation.

"But what if this is a trap? We can't take risks easily." Another disciple said worriedly, his brows furrowed and his face full of anxiety.

"I believe the judgment of the magic woman. There is indeed something strange about the jade pendant. Perhaps a crisis is really coming." said a disciple who is good at magic.

"But we know nothing about Lingfeng Valley, how can we trust them easily?" Someone else raised an objection.

Zhao Yu pondered for a moment and said, "We can send someone to investigate the situation in Lingfeng Valley first, and then make a decision."

Lin Yu listened to everyone's discussion and kept thinking in his heart. He knew that this decision was related to the future of the Zhenwang Sect and could not be acted rashly.

Just as everyone was arguing, a disciple suddenly came to report: "Master, something bad has happened. Several of those mysterious visitors are prowling around the sect, and their behavior is suspicious."

Lin Yu's face changed, "Let's go and take a look."

When they arrived, they saw the mysterious visitors standing in front of the sect's Sutra Library, seemingly discussing something.

"What are you doing?" Lin Yu shouted loudly.

The leader quickly explained, "Sect Master Lin, we misunderstood. We are simply curious about the Zhenwang Sect's Sutra Library and have no ill intentions."

Lin Yu's doubts grew even stronger. Should the Zhenwang Sect cooperate with Lingfeng Valley?
