553: Joint efforts of the two seas

This storm originated from the Awakening of a mysterious power deep within the Profound Abyss Sea Region; this power was evil and formidable, leaving devastation in its wake, and many weaker forces had already been annihilated by it.

Although the major forces in the Profound Abyss Sea Region united to resist, the effect was not ideal, so they turned their attention to other sea regions, attempting to find powerful allies.

After Lin Feng understood these circumstances, he had more considerations in his heart. Forming an Alliance with the Profound Abyss Sea Region, if successful, the Illusory Spirit Alliance would gain unprecedented development opportunities, but at the same time, it would face enormous challenges and risks.

Thus, Lin Feng selected a group of shrewd, capable, and highly skilled Cultivators, preparing to have them follow the purple-robed individual to the Profound Abyss Sea Region for an on-site investigation.

Before their departure, Lin Feng specifically gathered these Cultivators and earnestly said, "This trip to the Profound Abyss Sea Region is of great importance. You must be careful and cautious, not only to understand the situation there but also to pay attention to your own safety. If you find the situation unfavorable, return immediately."

The Cultivators nodded in agreement, indicating they would definitely complete the mission.

Subsequently, they waited for the purple-robed Cultivator to return from lobbying other forces, preparing to go and investigate.

A few years later, the purple-robed Cultivator returned with news, informing Lin Feng that most other forces held a wait-and-see attitude, but were willing to send some personnel to the Profound Abyss Sea Region to investigate the situation together.

Thus, this team, composed of Illusory Spirit Alliance Cultivators and representatives from other forces, embarked on their journey to the Profound Abyss Sea Region under the leadership of the purple-robed individual.

They Transmigrated through the perilous Heavenly Gang Wind of the First Line Sea; the wind was like a sharp blade, causing the protective Spiritual Qi light of the crowd to flicker, but fortunately, everyone's strength was not weak, and with the purple-robed individual guiding the path, they managed to pass through with difficulty.

Upon entering the Profound Abyss Sea Region, the sight before them left everyone in awe.

The Spiritual Qi here was far more concentrated than in their own sea region, and various exotic spiritual plants and Spirit Beasts were visible everywhere.

However, danger also followed like a shadow, with powerful Yao Beasts appearing from time to time to attack them.

Many major forces from the First Sky Sea Region had come this time, even Golden Immortal Cultivators, and Lin Feng's Illusory Spirit Alliance was only a very small force.

Upon arriving here, he learned that the force to which the purple-robed individual in the Profound Abyss Sea Region belonged was called the "Xuanming Sect," which was one of the top powerful forces in the Profound Abyss Sea Region.

The Xuanming Sect has a long history and profound heritage, with numerous experts within the Sect, not only many True Immortal and Golden Immortal level powerhouses, but it is even rumored that a Taiyi Golden Immortal, surpassing the Golden Immortal, exists to guard it.

The Xuanming Sect occupies the most fertile area in the Profound Abyss Sea Region, where Spiritual Veins crisscross, Spiritual Qi gathers like an abyss, and all kinds of rare Cultivation resources are available.

The Sect's architecture is grand and magnificent, with pavilions and towers scattered in an orderly fashion, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

The one who came to greet everyone this time was an Elder of the Xuanming Sect; his hair was white, but his face was ruddy, his spirit vigorous, and a powerful pressure emanated from his body.

When he saw everyone, he smiled slightly and said, "Welcome, everyone, from afar. My Xuanming Sect has prepared accommodation for you all. Please follow me."

Everyone followed this Elder and arrived at the accommodation arranged for them by the Xuanming Sect.

This was an independent courtyard, with a serene environment and abundant Spiritual Qi, clearly carefully selected.

After settling everyone, the Elder of the Xuanming Sect said, "Everyone, please rest here for a moment. I will come later to give you a detailed introduction to the current crisis and some of our Xuanming Sect's ideas regarding the Alliance."

With that, the Elder turned and left. Everyone sat together and began to discuss in low voices.

Some were amazed by the powerful strength of the Xuanming Sect, while others were worried about the impending crisis.

Lin Feng looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, there's no need to panic too much. We came here to understand the situation and then make plans. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we must unite as one and face them together."

Everyone nodded, indicating that they would follow Lin Feng's arrangements.

After a while, the Elder of the Xuanming Sect came again, leading everyone to a spacious hall.

Inside the hall, several high-ranking figures of the Xuanming Sect were already seated, all with solemn expressions, clearly taking this crisis very seriously.

After the Elder of the Xuanming Sect motioned for everyone to sit down, he began to explain in detail: "The crisis our Profound Abyss Sea Region is facing is a force that has broken through from the Netherworld. They are attempting to occupy this sea region and transform this place into the Netherworld."

At the same time, because our Profound Abyss Sea Region borders the Demon Spirit Immortal Domain, we also have to face the covetousness of the Demon Immortal Clan.

The major forces of the Profound Abyss Sea Region are not their opponents. If we are defeated, your First Line Sea will become one of their next targets. Therefore, joining forces with the Profound Abyss Sea Region to resist the enemy is a matter of survival for your respective forces. That Netherworld force employs ruthless methods, annihilating all life in its path. If they succeed, your sea regions will likely not escape misfortune. Although the Profound Abyss Sea Region is strong now, facing this dual crisis, it is still insufficient. That is why we have invited you all to come and discuss a grand plan.

Although my Xuanming Sect is a major Sect in the Profound Abyss Sea Region, it is difficult to withstand this monstrous calamity with the strength of one Sect alone. Now, we can only unite with you all; only by working together can we have a glimmer of hope. If we can successfully repel the Netherworld force and the Demon Immortal Clan, then in the future, the Profound Abyss Sea Region and your respective sea regions will naturally be of one heart, share resources, and prosper together.

However, this crisis is no small matter, and battles are likely to be extremely dangerous. If any of you have concerns, you can raise them now. If you decide to stay, you must advance and retreat with my Xuanming Sect and not shrink back.

The First Sky Cultivators present were also startled by this news. It is important to know that the First Sky is their territory, and if the Profound Abyss Sea Region were breached, the First Sky Sea Region would inevitably suffer the same fate.

Many forces who had initially adopted a wait-and-see attitude now also looked solemn.

Someone asked in a low voice, "Is that Netherworld force really so powerful? Even a powerful existence like the Xuanming Sect finds it difficult to resist?"

A high-ranking figure of the Xuanming Sect said in a deep voice, "The Netherworld force is unpredictable. The Cultivation Techniques they Cultivate are completely different from ours, and their methods are extremely cruel. This time, they have brought many powerful Netherworld artifacts, and we find it quite challenging to fight them."

Another high-ranking figure added, "The Demon Immortal Clan is also not to be trifled with. They are born with powerful demonic power and Immortal Rank techniques, and they are extremely greedy for resources. Now that these two forces have colluded, the situation of our Profound Abyss Sea Region is precarious."

At this moment, a Golden Immortal from the First Sky stood out and said, "I am Ling Xiaozi, from the First Sky Sea Region." He stood firm, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, and said in a deep voice, "Although I am a Loose Cultivator, I also know the principle that when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. Since the Xuanming Sect has been frank, we should set aside past grievances and resist the powerful enemy together. It's just that..."
