"The sky? What do you mean?"
Shen Yunhao was stunned for a moment, looking at the girl next to him.
"Above in the sky, there are even more terrifying beings confronting each other. I can vaguely sense their presence... It's quite frightening!"
After a pause, Shuang'er continued, "She's even more terrifying than that Palace Master of Guanghan Palace from before!"
"..."
If Shen Yunhao's guess is correct, Shangguan Jingming, like Tianyuan Daoren, should have broken through the shackles of the Void Realm and touched the threshold of the Great Void Realm.
Even more terrifying than Shangguan Jingming... that would only be a true Taixu Realm expert!
So, for the sake of Mo Yan, the Tai Xuan Dao Sect even dragged out a Supreme Elder-level figure?
But... it happened so suddenly, the higher-ups of the Moon Palace shouldn't be here...
After thinking for a while, Shen Yunhao instantly understood!
"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect this big shot to arrive so just in time..." Shen Yunhao breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but sigh, "Having a reliable father-in-law really makes things much easier in crucial moments..."
The distorted and gloomy horizon of the Dark Abyss was already close at hand, and the gray-black illusory demonic energy slowly surged, carrying a hint of gloom and eeriness.
Generally speaking, once you enter the area covered by the Illusionary Demon Qi, the pursuit from the righteous sects will basically stop.
If there is any final interception, it must be at the edge of this dark abyss!
The moment Shen Yunhao had this thought, a sudden change occurred.
The previously peaceful space ahead suddenly distorted, and a monstrous, pure, and malevolent demonic energy surged forth like a burst dam, overwhelming him and accompanying it with a strange, piercing laugh like the cry of an owl.
"Hehehe... You little beast! I've been waiting here for a long time! Today, neither you nor that demonic vine will escape!"
Shen Yunhao was stunned for a moment, then his face turned extremely gloomy, and his eyes once again burst with intense killing intent!
This aura was familiar to him; in fact, it was etched into his very being...
Waiting for him here was not someone from the Tai Xuan Dao Sect, but—Elder Gui Mu!
The true mastermind behind the Demon Vine case hundreds of years ago, the culprit who caused Ling Huanzi's downfall and Mo Yan's century of suffering!
Enemies meeting are bound to be filled with hatred.
Shen Yunhao could almost feel that the dormant consciousness of Mo Yan within his body was about to erupt violently the moment it sensed Elder Gui Mu's aura.
Fortunately, Shen Yunhao was not blinded by hatred.
The fact that the other party chose to appear at this time and place means that they must have laid a trap in front of us. If we rush in to fight at this moment, we will surely die!
He was lucky to have managed to defeat Daoist Qianhe today; he wasn't arrogant enough to think he could also take down Elder Guimu.
"We can't fight head-on!"
In a flash, Shen Yunhao made a decision, abruptly stopping his forward momentum and turning around without hesitation to fly south at full speed, shouting at the same time:
"Shuang'er!"
Shuang'er instantly understood. Her illusory figure merged back into the Guixue Sword, and the icy blue light of the laws on the sword shone brightly once more, causing the surrounding space to fluctuate.
The illusionary power was activated again, and Shen Yunhao disappeared.
Not far away, the young man in the purple robe paused slightly upon seeing this, then a cruel and amused sneer curled at the corner of his lips:
"What a clever little rascal... Did you figure it out?"
He naturally knew that Shen Yunhao possessed the Void Illusion technique, so he deliberately set up formations at the entrance to the Dark Abyss and in the northern region.
If Shen Yunhao uses the Void Illusion technique to teleport to the north, he will still fall into the formation and will not escape death!
But this kid actually ran straight south... Was it a coincidence, or did he figure out there was a trap to the north in that short moment?
"Interesting... but today, without Zhu Xuan's help, you are doomed!"
Gui Mu chuckled sinisterly, his figure merging into the demonic energy like a ghost, and he sped off towards the south where Shen Yunhao had disappeared...
On the other side, ten miles away, icy blue light flashed, and Shen Yunhao's figure appeared out of thin air.
Without any pause or even a clear look at his surroundings, he activated the Illusionary Shuttle on his body. His figure blurred again, and the next moment, he appeared about two kilometers to the west.
"It seems that even with the cultivation level of the Void Realm, the maximum teleportation distance of the Illusionary Spirit Shuttle is limited to about two kilometers..."
He did not use the Phantom Shuttle continuously because this item was not truly without cooldown; there was still a short interval of a few seconds between two uses.
At his current speed at the Void Realm level, those few seconds are enough for him to fly those two kilometers on his own.
However, Shen Yunhao still underestimated the speed of his opponent.
"Too slow! Too slow!"
Just as Shen Yunhao regained his footing and before he could accelerate, a purple-robed figure materialized on the path ahead, laughing wildly, "I told you, you can't escape today!"
Shen Yunhao took a deep breath, stopped in his tracks, and gripped the Guixue Sword tightly. "Since we can't avoid it, let's fight. At least we're not in their trap, so it's not hopeless, but..."
Shen Yunhao suddenly grinned and said loudly, "I'm very curious! I accept that the Tai Xuan Dao Sect is chasing me, but when did your Blood Sect become a lackey of the Tai Xuan Dao Sect? Why are you getting involved here too?"
He deliberately amplified his voice so that other forces that might be watching from the shadows could hear him clearly... At this moment, the Blood Sect and the Tai Xuan Dao Sect were basically on the same side.
Even if collusion between the two parties cannot be proven, it is enough to smear the Tai Xuan Dao Sect.
However, upon hearing this, Elder Guimu not only did not get angry, but instead burst into even more arrogant laughter, "Lackeys? The Tai Xuan Dao Sect is nothing more than an affiliated sect that my Blood Sect keeps outside! Isn't it normal for us to stand up for our useless lackeys?"
His statement was as outrageous as Shen Yunhao's previous claim that Mu Shuangshuang was his pet; the more exaggerated it was, the less likely anyone would believe it.
Anyway, it can't be verified; anyone can brag.
"Stop trying to stall for time!" Ghostwood's laughter abruptly stopped, his tone turning utterly sinister. "If no one else comes to rescue you, you'll just have to obediently become nourishment for me, along with your demonic vines!"
He gave Shen Yunhao no more chances and formed a strange hand seal with his hands!
"All trees wither and flourish..."
In an instant, the surrounding earth churned violently, and several thick, black, withered branches burst out of the ground, carrying a terrifying force that seemed to overwhelm everything, crashing fiercely into Shen Yunhao from all directions!
Shen Yunhao's pupils shrank suddenly. He raised his sword, ready to fight to the death, when a giant palm of spiritual energy, like a meteorite from outer space, crashed down from above, striking the few hideous withered branches with perfect precision!
What followed was a woman's laughter that was so sweet and alluring it could melt your heart:
"Hehehe... You old blockhead, I'm not here to save anyone today. I just don't like you and want to have a fight with you. What do you say?"
