Forced into a corner, Sky Void Daoist took all his possessions, along with talismans, magical Law Artifact, and elixirs, fully armed, and headed to the mission site.

"Guo Tie is pressuring me like this. When Elder Huo returns, I will definitely file a complaint against him!"

"I have already left the Immortal Sect. The emperor is far away, so I will find a place to hide first and come back after Elder Huo Yun returns. If I fail to complete the mission, I will only be blamed. But if I go too far and am watched on the road, it will be dangerous."

However, thinking of the Immortal Slaughtering Bow in his hand, Sky Void Daoist felt even more confident.

"I'm not afraid of encountering Chen Wang, but I'm afraid of some other enemies, or some unpredictable things."

"I hope I'm overthinking it, and that these bastards just happened to be avoiding this period of leisure."

He focused all his attention on his surroundings, sensing the Law Technique fluctuations around him, and found that there was no danger.

Just as he relaxed his guard, a high-pitched Dragon's Roar roar suddenly rang out, and a sword light pierced through the air with unparalleled ferocity! Sky Void Daoist was prepared; rays of light shone from his body.

He possessed three top-grade defensive magic Law Artifact and one defensive Spirit Artifact, all of which he activated in an instant, easily blocking the sword light.

The sword light was repelled by his protective aura and bounced off in mid-air.

It only broke through two protective barriers; it didn't damage the innermost defensive barrier of the Spirit Artifact at all.

Sky Void Daoist felt a warning in his heart.

"There really is something fishy going on."

The long sword pierced through the air and then flew towards the horizon! Sky Void Daoist looked solemn and dared not give chase.

He drew his Immortal Slaughtering Bow and roared, "Who are you, you worthless scoundrel? Get out here right now!"

However, no one showed up for a long time.

Cold sweat beaded on Sky Void Daoist's forehead. He was completely focused on his spiritual power, yet he couldn't see any opponent attacking him.

However, opening this shield also consumed his Law Power.

Sky Void Daoist's heart sank, and he dared not linger in the fight.

Instead of tracking the flying sword, they retreated towards the location of the Ethereal Immortal Sect.

Just then, he suddenly sensed something was wrong, and with a loud bang, a protective shield was shattered!

Another sharp sword light pierced through the air, using the same technique as before.

Sky Void Daoist looked solemn and once again fully expanded the protective barrier around his body.

He didn't know what methods his opponent possessed, and if the defensive shield didn't activate and he couldn't dodge, his life would be in danger.

Therefore, he went all out.

However, the opponent did not make another move, and the flying sword disappeared into the dense forest, disappearing without a trace after a short while.

Sky Void Daoist took a deep breath and immediately gave chase.

He knew the other party was trying to wear him down; if he went along with their plan...

Then I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the Ethereal Immortal Sect before I'm killed.

This time he was extremely fast. He chanted a spell, and a tornado shot out in front of him, uprooting the entire forest. Trees as thick as three people could hug were also lifted up, and the mud was stirred up, creating large pits in the ground.

The Law Technique cast by Sky Void Daoist were extremely powerful.

A moment later, the area was cleared, but the person was nowhere to be found.

Sky Void Daoist looked solemn, activating his defensive magical Law Artifact while holding the Immortal Slaughtering Bow in his hand, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.

He extended his Divine Sense to probe outwards, but still found no trace of it.

Either the other party had already disappeared without a trace, or the other party's Divine Sense cultivation was superior to his.

When Chen Wang fought him before, he deliberately didn't use his full strength, and Sky Void Daoist couldn't figure out Chen Wang's methods.

All that is known is that this young man possesses profound Law Power and has a powerful Great Hand Seal technique.

He had no idea how ruthless Chen Wang's methods were, and he didn't think much about it.

At this moment, cold sweat began to trickle down his forehead.

Although he possessed a treasure like the Immortal Slaughtering Bow, he could not find an opponent and thus could not engage in a decisive battle.

This Sky Void Daoist was indeed quite capable; he took out a Talisman Paper from his robes, Talisman Paper quickly burst into flames.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Puffs of white smoke rose up, and as if by magic, several small birds flew away.

These little birds flew incredibly fast, exploring the jungle in search of the hidden enemy.

This is a tracking Law Technique, sealed within a previous talisman, and it possesses great spiritual power.

Sky Void Daoist felt a pang of regret at the cost, but at this critical juncture, knowing that the other party was after his life, he held nothing back.

However, the birds were soon killed by some unknown force.

Bang bang bang bang bang! The Tracking Spell was completely ineffective.

Sky Void Daoist looked solemn.

Previously, his Divine Sense covered the surroundings but he did not find the other party, yet the other party was able to kill several of his small birds.

"If he doesn't have some other means, then this person's Divine Sense is superior to mine."

"He's probably much stronger than me. Could he be a cultivator at the Great Perfection stage?"

Sky Void Daoist frowned deeply.

Soon he heard rustling sounds coming from the woods.

Sky Void Daoist raised an eyebrow, and the Immortal Slaughtering Bow in his hand shot up.

However, it did not find a clear opponent, nor did the Immortal Slaughtering Bow lock onto its target.

With a thought, his figure, like a butterfly taking flight, ethereal and fleeting, darted out into the woods.

His posture was like that of an immortal, truly unparalleled in elegance.

He darted through the forest without a single leaf touching him; the dense woods posed no obstacle to him, and he quickly found a person's trail.

This is a man wearing a black cloak, wielding a staff.

Not only that, but he also had a broom under him, and this strange attire immediately made Sky Void Daoist frown.

"A broom? How can someone be riding a broom?"

For a moment, he was captivated by the strange appearance of the person in front of him and couldn't react, not knowing which faction the other party belonged to.

He searched his memory for monks who used brooms, but found he had no recollection of them at all.

After all, cultivators are far superior to ordinary people. Who would use a broom as a Flying Artifact? That would be too shabby.

At this moment, Sky Void Daoist raised the Immortal Slaughtering Bow in his hand and said coldly, "So it's you. You're quite confident, daring to show yourself and fight me."

Sky Void Daoist sensed that the opponent's aura was not weak. At this moment, he poured his Law Power into the Immortal Slaughtering Bow Immortal Slaughtering Bow and drew it open.

The Immortal Slaughtering Bow was only drawn two or three-tenths of the way open when a dazzling white arrow was formed.

The Immortal Slaughtering Bow exuded a dense killing intent, its gaze fixed intently on the black-robed cultivator before it.

Sweat beaded on his forehead, but he remained calm and composed as he spoke to the man.

"Where exactly are you from? What grudge do you hold against me? Why are you targeting me?"

Sky Void Daoist was a ruthless and cunning old man. Before the other party could even reply, he shot an arrow as soon as he finished speaking.

It is precisely by taking advantage of the moment when the other party is distracted after you finish speaking.

He rose from a rogue cultivator to Guest Elder, and then worked his way up to his current position by serving others; he has a wealth of experience.

Unlike those Little White who are just starting out and rely solely on their profound Law Power.

The power of the Immortal Slaughtering Bow was immense; a single arrow pierced the air and killed the black-robed cultivator. The arrow went straight through his chest, and his body exploded into pieces in an instant.

At the same time, the broom fell to the ground.

A hint of joy appeared in Sky Void Daoist's eyes. He knew that this person had revealed his whereabouts and might have some other schemes, but he didn't care. As long as he acted quickly and ruthlessly, the other party's conspiracies would not threaten him.

After shooting the man to death, Sky Void Daoist gently stroked the black bow with his fingers, his heart filled with even greater fondness for the Immortal Slaughtering Bow. "With such a treasure in hand, what do I have to fear?"

For a moment he was somewhat dazed, almost actually believing that the large bow was his personal property.

Just then, a sharp gust of wind swept in, and a figure broke through the air, leaving afterimages in the air!

Sky Void Daoist's heart trembled. "This person actually has accomplices!"

He turned around, his hands forming a spell, and a talisman shot out, transforming into a large net in the air, flashing with lightning and sparks, trapping the figure within.

The figure was also wearing a black cloak. After being stopped by the lightning bolt, white smoke rose from his body, and there was a pungent smell of burning flesh.

However, this person moved extremely fast, making a turn in mid-air as if defying the natural trajectory of human movement, and was swept backward out of thin air.

They went straight ahead, avoiding the beam of light.

The large net followed closely behind and circled around him again!

However, the person dodged several times in succession, and finally succeeded in exhausting the power of the talisman.

At this moment, Sky Void Daoist used this extremely wonderful Law Technique to create distance for himself, and he drew the Immortal Slaughtering Bow again.

His arms were already trembling and the veins on his arms were bulging after that one time he pulled.

This time, although he was struggling, he knew that these two people had their eyes on him and that he had to settle things once and for all. Moreover, this person was clearly also a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, and his aura could not be hidden from others, so he dared not underestimate him.

An arrow pierced the air. This time, the man was prepared; he dodged and weaved in the air, leaving only afterimages with his speed, but he was still struck by the arrow and died instantly.

His body fell down.

This arrow was less powerful than the previous one; it pierced his chest but did not explode his body.

Sky Void Daoist breathed a sigh of relief and looked around. "We can't stay here any longer. If a third cultivator comes, I'll be in danger."

Just as he was about to leave, streaks of lightning suddenly flashed across the area, causing him to shudder.

"Taiyi Divine Thunder Formation!"

He was startled, realizing he had entered someone else's formation.

The formation had already been activated, its power immense, and even he dared not underestimate it.

Bolts of lightning struck him one after another.

Sky Void Daoist dodged and weaved, raising a protective barrier of Law Power to fight back, while also searching for the person controlling the formation.

He was indeed experienced, and after a moment he finally discovered a figure hiding behind a boulder.

This time, he did not activate the Immortal Slaughtering Bow, but instead activated his natal flying sword, named Flying Goose.

The Flying Goose Sword sliced the boulder in two as easily as cutting tofu, leaving a smooth cut with a sharp, Sword Qi aura.

Although the man dodged extremely quickly, he was still controlling the Taiyi Divine Thunder Formation, so his movements were a bit slow. His black robe was ripped in two, revealing his true face.

Sky Void Daoist's pupils suddenly contracted.

This person was none other than Yuan Kang Real Person!

"Yuan Kang, how dare you lay a hand on me!"

He felt a chill run down his spine and immediately realized something was wrong; there were two other people there before.

"So, you weren't killed, but rather you were waiting for me here."

In an instant, he suddenly realized something.

The other party clearly knew that he possessed a treasure like the Immortal Slaughtering Bow, and since Elder Huo Yun had not returned to the mountain, they intended to take this opportunity to kill him! Normally, Sky Void Daoist was quite arrogant and domineering towards these people, and they must have felt resentful.

Yuan Kang Real Person sneered, "Tianxu, hand over the Immortal Slaughtering Bow in your hand, and I'll take it and fly away. That way, we won't hurt our relationship. Otherwise, you know that you probably won't be able to get out of this great formation."

Sky Void Daoist looked solemn as he dodged the heavenly lightning array while retreating.

He also clearly saw the faces of the two corpses that had just died, and they were indeed the two cultivators who had disappeared earlier.

He took out a Jade Talisman, a hint of unspeakable mockery in his expression.

"Aren't you afraid that Elder Huo Yun will find out what you're doing? Luckily, I was prepared. I crushed this Jade Talisman and was able to expose this matter immediately."

The Jade Talisman in his hand was a high-grade item, quite valuable.

At this moment, he coldly shouted, hoping to frighten Yuan Kang temporarily.

But Yuan Kang Real Person showed no fear and coldly said, "You're forcing me to fight you to the death!"

As soon as he finished speaking,

Sky Void Daoist sensed the power of the Taiyi Divine Thunder Formation increasing. A bolt of purple lightning struck down, shattering all the protective shields on his body, but it was ultimately blocked by his Spirit Artifact.

However, even with such an attack, the Spirit Artifact could only block it once more.

"Good."

Sky Void Daoist crushed the communication Jade Talisman and sent out a message.

"Yuan Kang, Sun Qing, and others are plotting against me and have schemed to kill me. I beg the elders to uphold justice!"

After Sky Void Daoist spread these words, the jade Jade Talisman was crushed and quickly lost its spiritual power, turning into ashes and disappearing into the world.

At this moment, he saw lightning faintly gathering in the sky, and his expression became very solemn.

He unleashed the full power of the Flying Rainbow Sword, forcing Yuan Kang Real Person to a stop. The sword struck Yuan Kang Real Person, sending sparks flying everywhere!

Sky Void Daoist raised an eyebrow, wondering when Yuan Kang's physical body had become so strong.

However, the Flying Goose Sword was extremely sharp and still managed to pierce through his chest.

However, although the Sword Qi of the Flying Goose Sword shredded Yuan Kang Real Person's internal organs, Yuan Kang Real Person did not die.

Sky Void Daoist sensed something was amiss and suddenly his expression changed. "No, this is Corpse Puppet!"

He gasped in surprise, his back soaked with cold sweat.
