Chapter 852: New Trends of the Immortal Sect's External Enemies
Lin Feng and his companions successfully repelled the mysterious monk who had blocked their path and stood before the gate of the ancient palace, their hearts filled with anticipation for the secret of the origin of the Immortal Sect. However, before they even entered the palace, worrying news arrived from the Immortal Sect.
A disciple, responsible for staying behind at the Immortal Gate and communicating with everyone, hurried through the special passage in the Lingyuan Secret Realm and ran breathlessly to Lin Feng. "Brother Lin, something terrible has happened! Several unidentified forces have been active around the Immortal Gate, seemingly plotting some sort of action against us."
Lin Feng's expression instantly grew serious. He knew that the Immortal Sect couldn't afford any mishaps at this moment. "Tell me in detail, what exactly is going on?"
The disciple wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "According to our spies, the Golden Light Palace, the Silver Moon Divine Sect, and some previously unknown smaller forces seem to have joined forces. They are frequently mobilizing personnel around the Immortal Gate and secretly setting up some strange formations. It doesn't seem like these actions are friendly."
Jian Chen frowned, gripping the hilt tightly in his hand as he angrily said, "These guys, despite their previous defeat, still refuse to give up and are actually banding together to harm the Immortal Sect! Senior Brother, let's go back and teach them a lesson!"
Su Yao also looked worried and said, "Brother, the situation of the Immortal Sect is critical now, we can't ignore it. But the secret of this palace is related to the future of the Immortal Sect, and we can't give up the exploration easily. What should we do?"
Lin Feng pondered for a moment, his eyes revealing a resolute and determined look. "Everyone, don't rush. We can't lose our composure. Jian Chen, lead half of the vanguard disciples back to the Immortal Sect immediately. Keep a close eye on the movements of those forces. If they make any moves that are detrimental to the Immortal Sect, immediately deploy our defenses. But don't attack rashly. Wait for my orders."
Jian Chen said without hesitation: "Brother, don't worry, I will not let the Immortal Sect suffer any damage!" After that, he quickly selected half of the vanguard disciples and returned to the Immortal Sect along the passage.
Lin Feng looked at the remaining people and said, "The rest of us will continue to explore the secrets of the palace. The future of the Immortal Sect depends not only on its current defense, but also on whether we can solve the mystery of its origin and gain powerful strength. We are racing against time here to find useful clues as soon as possible so that we can return to support the Immortal Sect."
Everyone nodded, their eyes filled with determination. Then, they began to study the runes and patterns on the palace gate, trying to find a way to enter the palace.
Meanwhile, outside the Immortal Gate, Jian Chen led the vanguard disciples back quickly. They climbed up the Immortal Gate's observation tower and, looking from afar, saw faint fluctuations of spiritual energy flickering in the mountains and forests surrounding the Immortal Gate, clearly indicating that those forces were operating in secret.
A disciple beside Jian Chen said worriedly, "Brother Jian Chen, these forces are coming with ill intentions. Can we really defend the Immortal Gate?"
Jian Chen patted the disciple on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. Our sect has gone through countless storms and they can't shake us easily. As long as we unite as one, we will make sure these guys with evil intentions have no chance of returning!" Although Jian Chen said this, he knew in his heart that the situation was serious. When those forces united, their strength should not be underestimated.
On the other side of the Immortal Gate, the Palace Master of the Golden Light Palace and the Sect Master of the Silver Moon Divine Sect stood atop a secluded mountain, overlooking the gate. The Palace Master of the Golden Light Palace was a burly, middle-aged man with a sinister look in his eyes. He gazed towards the gate and said coldly, "We have united so many forces this time. We must make the Immortal Gate pay and seize their treasures and resources for ourselves."
The leader of the Silver Moon Divine Sect was a beautiful woman with icy eyes. She nodded slightly and said, "That's right. However, the Immortal Sect is not completely powerless. We need to strengthen the formation we have set up to ensure that we can break through the Immortal Sect's defenses in one fell swoop."
At this time, inside the Immortal Gate, Elder Yanfeng and Yichen were concentrating on studying the palace gate. While carefully observing the runes, Elder Yanfeng said, "Yichen, these runes seem to be related to an ancient soul-locking formation. We need to find the key node to break the formation before we can open the gate."
Yi Chen looked at the runes, a flash of inspiration in his eyes, and said, "Elder, look here, the arrangement of these runes is similar to the spiritual power-guiding runes we saw in the ancient immortal sect texts. Perhaps we can guide the spiritual power to make these runes light up in a specific order, and thus break the formation."
Elder Yan Feng's eyes lit up and he said, "That makes sense. Let's try it."
So, Elder Yanfeng and Yichen carefully guided their spiritual energy, lighting up the runes one by one according to the order they had deduced. As the runes lit up, the palace gate began to vibrate slowly, emitting a dull sound.
However, just as the door was about to open, a group of strange spirits suddenly emerged from all directions. These spirits radiated a faint blue light, their faces blurred, and they let out sharp cries as they pounced on the crowd.
Lin Feng reacted quickly and shouted, "Everyone be careful, these spirits are not friendly!"
Su Yao used "Ice Spike Piercing", and countless sharp ice spikes shot towards the spirits. The ice spikes penetrated some of the spirits, but the spirits did not seem to suffer any substantial damage and continued to rush forward madly.
Lin Feng thought to himself: "These spirits seem to have no entity, and ordinary attacks have little effect on them." He quickly observed the movements of the spirits and found that they seemed to be more sensitive to strong light.
"Su Yao, cast an ice spell with a strong light effect! Elder Yanfeng, use fire spells to cooperate and increase the intensity of the light!" Lin Feng commanded loudly.
Su Yao immediately cast "Light Ice Flash", and the ice spell was infused with a strong light. For a moment, the light shone brightly. At the same time, Elder Yanfeng cast "Scorching Sun Illumination", and the flames and ice light reflected each other, making the light even more dazzling.
Under the strong light, the spirits cried out in pain, their movements becoming sluggish. Lin Feng took the opportunity to unleash his "Sword Controlling the Universe" technique. The sword energy, illuminated by the light, increased in power, pushing the spirits back one after another.
After a hard fight, they finally repelled the spirit. At this moment, the palace gates opened completely, and an ancient and mysterious aura filled the air.
Lin Feng looked at the interior of the palace, feeling both excited and worried. He was excited because they were finally one step closer to the secret of the origin of the Immortal Sect; but he was worried because the situation at the Immortal Sect was becoming increasingly tense. He wondered if Jian Chen and the others could withstand the combined attack of the foreign enemies.
"Let's go in quickly and return to the Immortal Gate for support after finding some useful clues." Lin Feng said. Everyone nodded and followed Lin Feng into the palace.
On the Xianmen side, Jian Chen closely monitored the enemy's movements. Suddenly, he saw those forces slowly approaching the Xianmen, emitting powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, and clearly ready to launch an attack.
Jian Chen gripped his sword tightly and shouted, "Disciples of the Immortal Sect, listen up! Activate the 'Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation' and prepare to meet the enemy!"
Following Jian Chen's command, the Xianmen's "Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation" quickly activated, its light shone brightly, enveloping the Xianmen. The Golden Light Palace Master looked at the Xianmen's defensive formation, sneered, and said, "With just this formation, you think you can stop us? Activate the combined formation and break it!"
The united forces quickly formed a huge formation, and spiritual powers of various colors intertwined together to form a powerful attack beam, shooting towards the "Qiankun Sect Protection Formation" of the Immortal Sect.
With a resounding "boom!", the attack beam struck the Qiankun Sect Protection Formation, causing it to flicker violently, as if it would shatter at any moment. Jian Chen watched the formation undergo such a powerful impact, and he worried inwardly, "The power of this combined formation is far beyond imagination. I wonder how long this Qiankun Sect Protection Formation can hold out. I hope Senior Brother Lin and the others can find a clue soon and return to support us."
Inside the palace, Lin Feng and his companions were frantically searching for clues to the origins of the Immortal Sect. They discovered a massive stone tablet in the palace's main hall, densely engraved with text and images. Lin Feng approached and carefully read the tablet, his expression alternating between solemnity and delight.
"Everyone come quickly, this stone tablet records some key information about the origin of the Immortal Gate, which seems to be related to a mysterious power. This power may allow us to completely solve the mystery of the origin of the Immortal Gate and greatly enhance the strength of the Immortal Gate. But we must rush back to the Immortal Gate as soon as possible, otherwise everything will be too late." Lin Feng said.
Everyone, fully aware of the urgent situation, quickly followed Lin Feng and prepared to leave the palace. However, just as they turned around, the palace gates suddenly closed, and a group of more powerful spirits appeared before them. These spirits emitted an even more powerful dark blue light, and their bodies were more condensed, clearly more difficult to deal with than the previous spirits.
"It seems these spirits don't want us to leave easily. Everyone, brace yourself! Break through their obstruction and rush back to the Immortal Gate for support!" Lin Feng shouted, his eyes filled with determination. A fiercer battle unfolded within the palace, while the Immortal Gate's defense also entered a fierce stage. Whether Lin Feng and his companions could break through the spirits' obstruction and return to the Immortal Gate in time to resolve the crisis remained uncertain.
