Lin Yang quickly arranged for members of the Chamber of Commerce to contact major forces within the Lingxu Market, such as Wanbaoge, to propose a joint discussion on strategies to deal with the extraterrestrial demonic shadows. Soon after, representatives from various forces arrived at the Linghe Chamber of Commerce, gathering in the spacious and elegantly furnished council hall. The hall was furnished with antique tables and chairs, and the walls were inlaid with spirit crystals that emitted a soft glow, adding a touch of mystery to the entire space.
Among them was Zhao Wanbao, the head of Wanbaoge Pavilion. He wore a magnificent purple robe and a purple-gold crown, his expression solemn. Although he and Lin Yang had had many conflicts in the past, he had to put aside his past hostility in the face of such a matter concerning the survival of the Lingxu Market. Everyone took their seats in turn, the atmosphere serious and oppressive, as if an invisible boulder was pressing on everyone's hearts.
Lin Yang broke the silence first. He stood up, his gaze sweeping firmly over everyone present, his voice steady and powerful: "Everyone, I believe you have all heard the news of the extraterrestrial demons. This force is coming on strong, and its unpredictable methods and formidable strength are undoubtedly a catastrophe for our Spirit Ruins Market. If our various forces do not unite as one and fight against the enemy together, we will all be doomed."
An elder from the Spirit Sword Sect, dressed in a white sword robe and with a white beard, nodded slightly in agreement, saying, "Manager Lin is absolutely right. But we currently know very little about this extraterrestrial demon. How should we deal with such a mysterious and powerful enemy?"
Lin Yang's expression was solemn as he slowly said, "According to the intelligence we currently have, the extraterrestrial demons are skilled at concealing their forms and launching surprise attacks, and they possess powerful dark forces. Our primary task is to make their concealment techniques impossible to detect. Only in this way can we take preventative measures."
At this moment, Zhao Wanbao, the head of Wanbaoge Pavilion, stroked his beard and said, "My Wanbaoge Pavilion has some blueprints for magical artifacts that can detect hidden auras. Although these artifacts are not peerless divine weapons, once they are mass-produced and distributed to various forces, they should be able to break through the concealment methods of the extraterrestrial demons to a certain extent."
Lin Yang was overjoyed and quickly said, "Sect Leader Zhao's move is excellent, truly a timely help. In addition, we also need to form a joint defense team, selecting elite members from various forces to conduct continuous patrols around the Lingxu Market. Once the demonic shadow is discovered, an alarm should be sounded immediately so that we can respond in time."
The elder of the Spirit Sword Sect stroked his longsword, expressing his agreement: "That's right. The members of the defense team must be the best of their respective forces to ensure they have enough strength to deal with the initial attacks. Moreover, the command and coordination of the team are also crucial, and clear rules of action and signal transmission methods must be established."
Everyone spoke enthusiastically about countermeasures, expressing their opinions freely, and the lively discussion echoed throughout the council hall. After in-depth discussions, a series of preliminary countermeasures were formulated. In addition to refining detection magic artifacts and forming a joint defense team, it was decided that alchemists from various factions would jointly develop elixirs to counter the dark forces. For example, they would develop the "Light Restoration Elixir," which could dispel dark aura and restore spiritual power, and the "Shadow Shield Elixir," which would enhance resistance to dark forces. The weapon refiners would collaborate to forge some powerful defensive arrays and offensive magic artifacts, such as the "Light Purification Array," which could restrain dark forces, and the "Shadow-Piercing Sky-Splitting Sword," specifically designed to counter the illusory forms of the extraterrestrial demons and enhance their attack effects.
Lin Yang knew that these measures were only a preliminary response, and many variables would remain when truly facing the extraterrestrial demonic forces. However, he believed that as long as all forces worked together, there was hope of resisting the invasion of this mysterious force.
After the meeting, Lin Yang spoke privately with Zhao Wanbao in a quiet courtyard. Looking at Zhao Wanbao, Lin Yang said sincerely, "Sect Leader Zhao, we had some misunderstandings in the past, but now we face a formidable enemy, and the Lingxu Market is in imminent danger. I hope we can put aside our past grievances, join hands, and work together to protect our homeland."
Zhao Wanbao nodded slightly, a resolute look in his eyes: "Don't worry, Manager Lin, I understand the priorities. This cooperation concerns the life and death of our respective forces, and Wanbao Pavilion will definitely go all out."
Lin Yang and Zhao Wanbao reached out and clasped hands tightly, as if in that instant, all their past conflicts had vanished. Back at the Chamber of Commerce, Lin Yang immediately instructed its members to implement the decisions made at the meeting. He knew time was running out; the extraterrestrial demons could launch an attack at any moment. The Linghe Chamber of Commerce and the entire Lingxu Market were on the brink of a storm; a fierce battle was imminent, and they had to be fully prepared to face this life-or-death test. Every decision executed, every preparatory step advanced, concerned the fate of countless cultivators in the Lingxu Market. Lin Yang felt a profound sense of responsibility and dared not slacken in the slightest.
