The wind swept up the fallen leaves in the courtyard, and the moonlight cast the shadow of the ancient tree onto the cobblestone path, everything immersed in the silence of the night.
Martial Arts Sect Inside, the news of the master's assassination is spreading, and everyone's face is filled with shock and suspicion.
Chin Feng and Sung walked into the Martial Arts Hall with their master's token, their faces solemn. Here, centuries of wisdom and secrets of the sect are gathered, perhaps holding the key to unraveling the truth behind their master's death.
Martial Arts Hall exudes a quiet and solemn atmosphere, with layers of bookshelves filled with ancient texts proving the profound heritage of the sect, while precious materials are carefully stored in sealed cabinets.
Sung found the ancient text with the same runes as the jade pendant in that corner and began to read it carefully. Chin Feng walked to the window, clutching the jade pendant in hand, with moonlight shining upon it, seemingly telling an eternal story.
"Chin Feng, it mentions the runes on the jade pendant, it's an ancient sealing technique," Sung suddenly exclaimed.
Chin Feng hurried over, while Sung continued, "This sealing technique is used to seal a very powerful force, I don't know why it's related to Master's death..."
The two locked eyes, sensing each other's doubts and unease.
"We must find the power hidden within this seal, perhaps then we can find the real culprit," Chin Feng's gaze was resolute.
"But the information here is too outdated, we need to find more clues," Sung sighed.
Chin Feng and Sung began to search for more information about the seal. From those yellowed pages, they discovered a mysterious legend about the seal.
Originally, this sealing technique was used to seal an evil power, which was a cursed sword that was said to be able to control the dead.
"Could it be that someone wants to obtain that sword?" Sung guessed.
"This is all too unbelievable, but we must pursue the truth, even if there is danger behind it," Chin Feng said firmly.
The news of the master's death quickly spread throughout the martial arts world. Shock, grief, and suspicion left everyone's emotions unsettled. In the following days, chaos reigned within the sect, with some mourning, some disbelieving, and others whispering among themselves.
The master's funeral was held within the sect, and experts from various major sects, and even the royal family, sent people to offer condolences.
Among them, the head of the Shen Feng Sect named Liu Han was a good friend of the master for many years. His eyes were deep, and his words revealed respect for the master and suspicion about the event. He left a mysterious remark in front of Chin Feng: "The truth is always hidden beneath the surface, pursuing it requires great caution."
There is also a mysterious old man, whose name is unknown, but his dignity and demeanor command respect. He doesn't say much, only nodding to Chin Feng, with a hidden meaning in his eyes.
After the funeral, the internal conflicts and suspicions within the sect escalated. Some suspected that the master's death was related to traitors within the sect, while others believed it was the work of external enemies.
Chin Feng and Sung decided to act alone, they must find the whereabouts of the cursed sword and uncover the truth behind their master's death.
"The sword is hidden in a place called 'Soul Valley,' as recorded in ancient scrolls, which is filled with mysterious power," Sung pointed out the details in the ancient book.
Chin Feng took a deep breath and said, "Let's go there, no matter what awaits us, we cannot back down."
After a night of careful preparation, Chin Feng and Sung left their sect in the dark of night, determined to delve into the martial arts world to investigate the truth behind their master's death. Their first stop was the Shen Feng Sect in Liu Han.
Shen Feng Sect is located in the valley between the mountains, where waterfalls flow. The flying water appears like silver, and the sound of the wind is like a song. When the two people arrived, Liu Han was standing on a small bridge, gazing into the distance.
"Who goes there?" asked the disciple of the sect.
"We are Chin Feng and Sung from the martial arts school, here to visit the headmaster Liu Han," Chin Feng replied.
The disciple looked at the two of them with confusion, then led them inside.
Liu Han Looking back at them, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes. He instructed his disciples to step back, then led the two men towards a small pavilion deep in the valley.
"Young brothers, you've come to see me about our master, haven't you?" Liu Han he spoke.
"Indeed," Chin Feng said solemnly, "My master had a good relationship with the sect leader before his passing. There are many doubts surrounding his death, and we want to know if the sect leader knows anything about it."
Liu Han remained silent for a moment, then said, "Your master was an upright person, and his death was truly shocking. Recently, there have been many rumors in the martial arts world about the mysteries surrounding his death."
Sung couldn't help but ask, "Does the sect leader know the truth behind these mysteries?"
Liu Han sighed and said, "I can only tell you that your master's death is related to a major conspiracy in the martial arts world. Someone is plotting a storm in the dark, intending to overturn the entire martial arts order."
Chin Feng and Sung were both shocked.
"What should we do then?" Chin Feng asked urgently.
Liu Han pondered for a moment and said, "You must go find the cursed sword. It is not only the key to uncovering the truth, but also possibly the only weapon to fight against the impending storm."
"We will head to Soul Valley to search for the sword," Sung said firmly.
Liu Han looked at them and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes: "You have courage and wisdom. But remember, Soul Valley is a forbidden place, and there have been many intruders who have gone missing since ancient times."
Liu Han warned, "If you really want to go, you must be fully prepared."
"Thank you for the reminder, but we must go," Chin Feng said resolutely.
"In that case, I will give you this," Liu Han took out an exquisite box, and inside were a pair of golden talismans. "These talismans will keep you safe on your journey."
Chin Feng and Sung exchanged a determined glance, then thanked their leader in unison, "Thank you for your guidance."
Liu Han smiled lightly, then turned serious, "Be careful. The cursed sword is sealed deep within Soul Valley, surrounded by danger. Besides the demons and mist, there may be other forces seeking it as well."
Chin Feng nodded and said, "We understand. We will be careful."
Liu Han gazed at them again, his eyes filled with hope. "Your journey will not only be about seeking the truth, but also a path of self-discovery. Your master was once a hero in the martial arts world, and I believe his spirit in heaven will be proud of you."
Chin Feng bowed deeply and said, "We will definitely not let down Master and Mater Liu Han's expectations."
"Good," Liu Han nodded, waved his hand, and gestured for them to leave.
Chin Feng and Sung turned and left the Shen Feng Sect, the setting sun's afterglow sprinkled over them, casting long shadows. Chin Feng stopped in his tracks, gazing towards the horizon, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes: "No matter how treacherous the path ahead may be, we will continue forward, unraveling all mysteries."
Sung looked at Chin Feng's profile, a smile appearing on his face: "I believe that no matter the difficulty, as long as we are together, we can overcome it all."
Chin Feng turned his head, gave a slight smile to Sung, and then the two of them walked down the stone steps side by side, embarking on the journey to find the cursed sword.
The road to Soul Valley was long and treacherous, encountering many monsters and obstacles along the way. However, with the talisman bestowed by Liu Han, Chin Feng and Sung successfully overcame each difficulty.
Finally, the entrance to Soul Valley appeared before my eyes. The gloomy sky, the chilly wind, and a desolate landscape. There is a huge stone monument at the entrance of the valley, with some ancient words carved on it, warning of the danger to intruders.
"This place is indeed out of the ordinary," Sung's eyes flashed with a hint of cold light.
"Yes, but we can't turn back," Chin Feng tightened the grip on the sword handle.
The two took a deep breath and stepped into Soul Valley together.
