Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

After Qin Feng and his companions successfully retreated from the Abyss Valley, they quickly rushed back to the academy and reported all the intelligence they found during the mission to Vice President Feng Jian in detail. After hearing this, Feng Jian's expression became more solemn. He realized that the conspiracy of the Dark Cult was much more complicated than he had imagined.

"Their activities in the Abyss Valley are just the beginning, and a greater threat may be brewing." Feng Jian said, with deep worry in his tone. "If we don't take action quickly, they may cause irreparable damage to the entire soul master world."

Qin Feng also felt the seriousness of the situation. He asked, "Vice President, what should we do next?"

Feng Jian pondered for a moment, then said: "We must step up our precautions and further explore the dark sect's behind-the-scenes plan. You have just completed the mission in the Abyss Valley. Take a good rest first. I will contact other soul master academies and sects to discuss countermeasures."

After returning to the dormitory, Qin Feng and the others finally had a chance to relax. The continuous fighting and the highly tense state made them physically and mentally exhausted. Chu Tian sat down on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally I can take a breath. This period of time has been really tense."

Ye Li was sorting out her equipment, and her frost fox was lying quietly at her feet, with a hint of fatigue in her eyes. "Although we are safe for the time being, we don't know what will happen next."

"Yes, the conspiracy of the dark sect is probably far from over." Zhang Meng stood in front of the window, looking at the distant sky with a frown.

Qin Feng nodded. He also understood that this brief tranquility was just the calm before the storm. After many battles, he had a deeper understanding of the strength and ambition of the Dark Sect. This organization was not only expanding its influence in the world of soul masters, their goals seemed to be more far-reaching, and might even involve some forgotten ancient power.

The next morning, Vice President Feng Jian once again summoned Qin Feng and his companions. This time, his expression seemed unusually serious.

"I have contacted representatives from other soul master academies and several major sects. They all agree that the activities of the Dark Sect must be stopped immediately and cannot be allowed to continue to develop." Feng Jian said, "For this reason, we have decided to take joint action to completely eliminate the Dark Sect's strongholds."

"Joint action?" Qin Feng asked, "What is the specific plan?"

Feng Jian nodded, took out a map and spread it on the table. There were several red dots marked on the map. These were the known bases of the Dark Sect. "This operation will be divided into multiple fronts. The major sects and academies will send elite forces to attack these bases. Your mission is to go to the Dark Valley in the southwest, which is one of their important bases."

"Dark Valley? It doesn't sound like a good place." Chu Tian said with a frown.

"Indeed, the Dark Valley has a complex terrain that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is filled with all kinds of dangerous soul beasts and traps." Feng Jian explained, "But it is precisely because of this that the Dark Cult chose to establish a base there. Your task is arduous, but I believe you can accomplish it."

Qin Feng looked at the map and began to plan an action plan in his mind. He nodded and said, "We understand, Vice President. We will do our best to complete the task."

In the limited time, Qin Feng and his partners were ready to go again, ready to meet the new challenge. Although this operation was more dangerous, each of them was full of the belief that they must win. They knew that this was not only for the academy, but also for the peace of the entire soul master world.

At the last moment before departure, Vice President Feng Jian specially found Qin Feng and called him aside.

"Qin Feng, this operation is of great importance. You must proceed with caution." Feng Jian said earnestly, "The base of the Dark Cult is not just a simple gathering place. There may be greater secrets and dangers hidden there."

"I understand, Vice President." Qin Feng answered firmly, "We will act cautiously and will not act rashly."

Feng Jian pondered for a moment, then patted Qin Feng on the shoulder: "Go, remember, you are the pride of the academy, don't let yourself fall into despair."

With the deputy dean's instructions, Qin Feng returned to the team and set out on the journey to the Dark Valley with his companions. Along the way, they were cautious and always maintained a high level of vigilance.

As they gradually approached the Dark Valley, the surrounding environment became more and more gloomy. The trees around them became sparser, and the air was filled with a damp and musty smell, which made people feel a little uneasy. When they reached a high ground, they finally saw the whole picture of the Dark Valley - it was a low-lying area shrouded in thick fog, surrounded by towering cliffs, and there was almost no life.

"It looks like the entrance to hell." Zhang Meng whispered, and his giant rock bear also growled beside him, showing its vigilance.

Qin Feng stared at the valley, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He knew that this mission would be extremely difficult, but they had no choice. This battle was not only for the academy, but also to protect the peace of the entire soul master world.

"We have no way out." Qin Feng said in a deep voice, "No matter how many dangers there are ahead, we must move forward."

The companions nodded, and then they packed their equipment, took a deep breath, and stepped into the dark valley. In this dead land, there are countless dangers and unknown challenges hidden, and they will use their courage and wisdom to meet the coming storm.
