With Lin Xiu's knowledge of the sect, Shenlong and the council uncovered terrifying truths. The sect had been experimenting with forbidden dark arts, manipulating demonic beasts and corrupting cultivation techniques with blood sacrifices. Their ultimate goal was to summon the Crimson Altar, an ancient relic rumored to grant unimaginable power but at a tremendous cost—the sacrifice of countless lives.
As the council processed this, Lin Xiu explained that the Black Veil Sect's leader, a powerful cultivator named Mo Tian, was preparing a grand ritual that would draw energy from all those sacrificed. This power would not only awaken the Crimson Altar but could grant him the power to dominate all realms.
Shenlong clenched his fists. "We can't allow that to happen. We need to strike before they complete their preparations."
Lin Xiu nodded, his expression somber. "Agreed. But know that Mo Tian has gathered warriors skilled in forbidden arts. His inner circle is composed of cultivators who have sacrificed their humanity for power. They will not be easily defeated."
The council began devising a new plan to disrupt the sect's ritual and eliminate Mo Tian's key followers. Every clan would contribute their best warriors and resources, forging an elite force to counter the sect's most dangerous agents.
