Chapter 93 The Secret of the Flame Shadow Palace

Qin Feng and others decided to accept the invitation of the Flame Shadow Palace and train with them to prepare for the upcoming Soul Master Competition. However, as their contact with the Flame Shadow Palace deepened, they gradually discovered the secrets hidden behind this mysterious organization.

Yan Jue led Qin Feng and others to a hidden valley, which was the training place arranged by Yanying Palace for them. The valley was surrounded by tall mountains and the environment was quiet, as if isolated from the world.

"This is a secret training base of our Flame Shadow Palace. Usually only core members can enter." Yan Jue said with a hint of pride in his tone.

Qin Feng and the others looked around and found that the environment here was very suitable for cultivation. Not only was the spiritual power abundant, but there were also various complex formations set up in the valley to simulate different battle scenes.

"What a great place." Chu Tian exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

Yan Jue smiled slightly, "I hope you can find new breakthroughs here."

In the next few days, Qin Feng and others trained with the members of the Flame Shadow Palace. The training method of the Flame Shadow Palace was unique and effective, especially in controlling the power of elements, showing extremely high attainments.

"Their control of fire is simply superb." Ye Li exclaimed after a training session. She learned a lot of new skills from the training in the Flame Shadow Palace.

Zhang Meng wiped his sweat and said, "Yes, it's hard work, but it's useful."

Although the training effect is obvious, Qin Feng still has some doubts in his heart. Although the members of the Flame Shadow Palace are friendly, their style of doing things always makes people feel a little mysterious, as if they are hiding some unknown secrets.

One night, Qin Feng felt a little tired because of excessive practice, so he decided to go out for a walk alone. When he walked to a remote corner of the valley, he suddenly heard some strange noises.

"This sound... sounds like someone is talking." Qin Feng frowned. He carefully approached the source of the sound and found that it was a secret room hidden deep in the valley.

The door of the secret room was half open, and the whispered conversation of several members of the Flame Shadow Palace could be heard from inside.

"We must complete the ceremony as soon as possible, otherwise the Palace Master's plan will be exposed." One of the voices said, with a nervous tone.

Another voice said: "That's right, especially that Qin Feng, their strength cannot be underestimated, we can't take it lightly."

Qin Feng was startled and immediately held his breath and listened carefully. However, the conversation in the secret room soon stopped, and then several members of the Flame Shadow Palace came out.

"Who's there?" one of them asked vigilantly, obviously having discovered Qin Feng's presence.

Qin Feng quickly dodged and hid to the side, avoiding their sight. Several members of the Flame Shadow Palace looked around, and when they found nothing unusual, they left in disappointment.

"Sure enough, something is wrong." Qin Feng thought to himself and decided not to alert the enemy for the time being and to observe for a while.

The next day, Qin Feng told Ye Li and Chu Tian what he had discovered last night. After hearing it, they immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

"It seems that the Flame Shadow Palace does have some secrets that we don't know about." Ye Li said, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

"We must find out their plan." Chu Tian said, and then suggested: "Why don't we go investigate again and see if we can find more clues."

Qin Feng nodded in agreement, "We have to act carefully and not be discovered by them."

That night, Qin Feng and his companions sneaked into the secret room deep in the valley again. This time, they found that the door of the secret room had been locked, and it was obvious that the members of the Flame Shadow Palace were on high alert.

"We have to find a way to get in." Zhang Meng said in a low voice.

Ye Li took out a frost crystal from her bosom and gently placed it on the door lock. The frost crystal gave off a faint chill, and soon the door lock froze and broke gently.

"Okay, go in." Ye Li said softly.

After entering the secret room, Qin Feng and others found that the layout here was very simple, with only a few tables and a pile of books and scrolls. They quickly searched through these scrolls, hoping to find clues about the Flame Shadow Palace plan.

Finally, Qin Feng found some strange symbols and words on a scroll. Although he didn't recognize these words, he felt that they were somewhat similar to the runes he had seen in the stone chamber before.

"These runes seem to be related to the dark power we sealed before." Ye Li said after a careful examination, with a hint of shock in her eyes.

"It seems that the Flame Shadow Palace has some connection with those black shadows." Qin Feng said in a deep voice. He realized that things were far more complicated than he had imagined.

As they continued to search, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the secret room. Qin Feng and the others immediately became alert and quickly hid in the dark.

The door of the secret room was pushed open, and Yan Jue and several senior members of the Yanying Palace walked in. They seemed to want to check the situation in the secret room, but did not find any trace of Qin Feng and others.

"It seems that the preparations for the ceremony are almost complete." Yan Jue said coldly, "In just a few days, our plan will be successfully completed."

"When the time comes, the contestants of the Soul Master Conference will become our sacrifices." Another member said with a sinister smile.

Qin Feng and the others were shocked when they heard this. They realized that the real purpose of the Flame Shadow Palace was to use the Soul Master Conference to perform some evil rituals, and they, the contestants, were probably just pawns being used.

"We must stop them!" Ye Li secretly made up her mind.

After Yan Jue and others left, Qin Feng and others quickly evacuated the secret room and returned to their residence. They knew that once the plan of Yanying Palace was implemented, the consequences would be disastrous.

"We have to notify Vice President Feng Jian immediately." Chu Tian said. He obviously realized the urgency of the matter.

Qin Feng nodded in agreement, but he also knew that it was not safe to go back now. The Flame Shadow Palace had obviously noticed something, so they had to be careful.

"We have to find out the time and specific plan of their ceremony first. We must not alert the enemy." Ye Li said calmly.

Zhang Meng said: "We can create some chaos first to distract their attention."

After some discussion, Qin Feng and others decided to continue pretending to be unaware for the time being, while secretly collecting more intelligence. They knew that only by having enough evidence could they deal a fatal blow to the Flame Shadow Palace at a critical moment.

Although their situation is extremely dangerous, everyone is full of fighting spirit. They know that they have a great responsibility and must stop the conspiracy of the Flame Shadow Palace at all costs.

In the next few days, Qin Feng and others continued to cooperate with the Flame Shadow Palace on the surface while secretly collecting more intelligence. They knew that the real battle was coming, and this time, they would not only face a powerful opponent, but also reveal a long-hidden dark secret.
