As Lei Chen continued his training, Qing Yuan kept a close eye on the movements of the Black Veil Sect. Word had spread that the sect was growing bolder, infiltrating other major sects and stealing ancient artifacts. They were gathering power at an alarming rate, and it was clear that they had a larger goal in mind.
Through careful reconnaissance, Qing Yuan discovered that the Black Veil Sect's main stronghold was located deep within The Void Valley, a place where the laws of time and space were warped. It was said that inside the Void Valley, reality itself could bend, making it nearly impossible for anyone to navigate without getting lost forever.
Even more troubling, Qing Yuan learned that the Black Veil Sect had been experimenting on Lei Chen's father, trying to extract knowledge from him about an ancient artifact linked to the War God's legacy. This artifact was believed to be the key to unlocking a power that could shift the balance of the entire continent.
"We have to stop them," Lei Chen said, his fists clenched. "They can't be allowed to use my father for their twisted experiments."
Qing Yuan nodded. "But we can't just rush in. The Void Valley is one of the most dangerous places on the continent. Only those who have mastered the manipulation of spiritual essence stand a chance of surviving there."
Lei Chen's mind raced. He had grown stronger since entering the Abyssal Wastes, but the Void Valley would be an entirely different challenge. He needed to be prepared.
