Chapter 174: The Eve of the Storm and the Struggle of the Families The Xuanxing Family: Internal and External Troubles and a Glimmer of Hope The crisis facing the Xuanxing Family grew increasingly severe. The activities of the Mysterious Shadow grew more frequent as they caused minor disturbances around the family territory, leaving clan members uneasy. Xuan Feng stepped up patrols, leading the family's elite warriors to shuttle back and forth through every corner of the estate day and night. "We cannot give the enemy an opening; we must remain vigilant," Xuan Feng told his team members. His gaze was as sharp as a leopard's, ready at a moment's notice to counter enemy attacks. Within the family, the issue of members falling into comas due to the Ancient Cultivation Technique remained unresolved. Xuan Xuan and the family healers conducted detailed examinations of the unconscious clansmen, discovering that their souls seemed trapped within a mysterious space. This space was filled with ancient runes and Spiritual Power fluctuations, resembling a massive labyrinth. Xuan Xuan surmised that this might be a protective mechanism or a trap inherent to the Ancient Cultivation Technique; only by discovering a method to crack it could they awaken their fallen kin. He began searching ancient texts for clues, studying day and night without letting slip a single piece of potential information.
