NOVEL WEB Chapter 640: The Second Heart of Shadow?
However, just as the Luo Family was gradually getting back on track, a new threat silently descended.
A mysterious force began causing disturbances across the Northern Desolate Divine Continent, attracting the attention of the Luo Family.
Upon hearing this news, Luo Ping immediately gathered Luo Yao and other high-ranking members to discuss countermeasures.
Through their analysis, they discovered that this mysterious force seemed to be intricately linked to the Demon Clan, yet it was different from them.
Luo Ping said in a deep voice, "This mysterious force comes with ill intentions. We must respond cautiously. We need to send people to investigate to uncover their true purpose and strength."
Luo Yao nodded. He stood up and said in a deep voice, "Family Head, I am willing to go investigate this mysterious force. I will take some elite clan members with me to secretly track their movements and intentions."
Luo Ping nodded, patting Luo Yao on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Be careful and stay safe."
Luo Yao nodded, then quietly left Qingshi City with a group of elite clan members to investigate the true nature of this mysterious force.
...
After a period of investigation and tracking, Luo Yao and his team finally uncovered the true identity of this mysterious force.
It turned out they were an organization called "Shadow." Their goal was not to invade the Northern Desolate Divine Continent but to seek a legendary artifact known as the Heart of Shadow.
This artifact is said to possess mysterious powers that could grant endless strength and wisdom.
The "Shadow" organization had come specifically in search of this artifact.
When Luo Yao learned of this, he immediately returned to Qingshi City to report the situation to Luo Ping.
After hearing Luo Yao's report, Luo Ping frowned deeply, "Heart of Shadow? This artifact turns out to be so mysterious, we must respond carefully."
Luo Yao nodded and said in a deep voice, "Family Head, I believe we should take action quickly to prevent them from finding this artifact, otherwise, if they obtain the power of the Heart of Shadow, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Luo Ping nodded, thoroughly aware of the seriousness of the situation, and immediately gathered the high-ranking members of the Luo Clan to discuss countermeasures.
After some discussion, they decided to dispatch an elite team to search for the whereabouts of the Heart of Shadow and do everything possible to prevent the "Shadow" organization from acquiring this artifact.
...
Qingshi City, Luo Family Ancestral Land, council hall.
Luo Ping stood in the center of the hall, looking steadfastly at the surrounding clan members, "This time, we face an unknown crisis; the Heart of Shadow, this legendary artifact, if it falls into the hands of the 'Shadow' organization, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"We must do everything possible to stop them!"
Luo Yao stood by Luo Ping's side, clenching his fists, his eyes flashing with a determined light, "Family Head, I am willing to lead the team to search for the Heart of Shadow's whereabouts and to stop the 'Shadow' organization."
Luo Ping nodded, patting Luo Yao on the shoulder, "Good, this task is entrusted to you. Remember, safety first, do not act recklessly."
Luo Yao bowed deeply, "Yes, Family Head, I will be cautious."
Then, Luo Yao selected a group of elite clan members, forming an elite team, and embarked on the journey to find the Heart of Shadow.
They traversed the vast Northern Desolation, trekking between rugged mountains and expansive prairies.
They faced countless hardships and dangers but never abandoned their determination to find the Heart of Shadow.
Finally, on a dark and windy night, they found the whereabouts of the Heart of Shadow.
It turned out that this treasure was hidden inside an ancient temple, and the entrance to the temple was at the top of a towering mountain peak.
Luo Yao and his team carefully climbed the peak and arrived at the temple's entrance.
They discovered that the temple's entrance was sealed by a powerful barrier, preventing direct entry.
Luo Yao took a deep breath, knowing that to enter the temple, they must break through this barrier.
Thus, he began to closely observe the barrier, searching for a way to break it.
After some effort, Luo Yao finally found a way to break the barrier.
He gathered all his strength and struck suddenly, causing the barrier to shatter instantly, revealing the entrance to the temple.
They carefully entered the temple and began their adventure searching for the Heart of Shadow.
Inside the temple, they encountered countless mechanisms and traps, but relying on wisdom and courage, Luo Yao and his team repeatedly turned dangers into safety and finally reached the deepest part of the temple.
There, they saw the true form of the Heart of Shadow.
It was a heart-shaped gemstone emitting a faint black light, exuding a powerful aura as if possessing endless power.
However, just as they were about to take the Heart of Shadow, a powerful aura suddenly attacked—they were the members of the "Shadow" organization.
"Who are you?"
"Why have you come here?"
The members of the Shadow organization looked at Luo Yao and his team, their brows slightly furrowing.
Luo Yao calmly replied, "We are people of the Luo Family, and we are here to prevent you from obtaining the Heart of Shadow. If this artifact falls into your hands, the consequences will be disastrous."
The members of the Shadow organization sneered, "Luo Family? Hmph, just a small family in the Northern Desolate Divine Continent, and you dare to obstruct us?"
Luo Yao couldn't help but laugh, "Small family? You can try! In any case, the Heart of Shadow will never fall into your hands."
The atmosphere between the two parties immediately tensed up, and a great battle was about to erupt.
